60P Strategy
T AN explosive Republican sena-
torial strategy meeting, the big
GOP guns warned against tieing the
Republican party too closely to
MacArthur's kite.
One of those who led the warning
was Senator Taft, whose friends
have been worried that MacArthur
might crawd him as the GaP presi-
dential candidate in 1952.
"We don't know what MacArthur
Is going to say when he gets here,"
Taft told the strategy meeting. "As
a political party we should keep out
of this."
Senator Millikin of Colorado
chimed in that occasionally past
"conquering heroes" had come
home and put their foot in their
mouths. He recalled that Admiral
Dewey, the conqueror of Manila,
got a hero's reception and was pre-
sented with a free house, then
transferred the house to his wife.
Millikin also cited Charles Lind-
berg, who came home to a hero's
welcome and later made some re-
in a r k s that offended religious
groups.
However, the sharpest Repub-
Ucan fire was concentrated on
Senator Cain of Washington for
putting the Republican party on
the spot with his resolution de-
claring war on China.
Senator Wherry of Nebraska, who
has been Secretary of State Ache-
son's bitter foe, actually snorted:
"As far as the Cain resolution is
concerned, I am on Acheson's
;ide."
Senator Young of North Dakota
warned that declaring war on China
p:ould do "more damage than any-
thing that has happened in the Re.
publien party in five years."
Cain Argues
However, Cain tried to defend his
position by arguing that his real
purpose was to "pin this war on
truman as Truman's war."
He pointed out that the President
Ln his April 11 speech mentioned
war 21 times. However, Cain's col-
Leagues failed to follow his reason-
lag.
In the end, Cain insisted that he
had promised to introduce the reso-
lution and intended to go through
with it. However, he agreed to make
s statement that his only purpose
was to focus attention on the China
issue, since Truman had already
jot the country into war.
The most explosive outburst
of the closed-door meeting came
from Indiana's wild Senator
Jenner. He was spurred out of
Jds seat by a remark from Seas-
tor Taft that "no responsible
Republican senator would ad-
vocate impeachment."
To this Jenner shouted an.
grlly: "I may not be part of
the responsible Republican lead-
ership, but I have my own opin-
He demanded immediate /m-
peachment of President Truman
tnd used considerable profanity in
|emanding it.
Senator Ecton of Montana tried
to soothe Jenner by explaining that
it was up to the house to bring ira.
peachment proceedings and the
senate was supposed to act as a
jury. Ecton cautioned that it would
be improper for a senator who was
supposed to sit on the jury to ex-
press advance opinions about im-
peachment.
Beating Enlisted Men
It has been hushed up by the
navy, but the Norfolk, Vs., shore
patrol has been officially accused
of kicking and beating servicemen
and throwing them into the brig
without their shoes.
These shocking charges were
made in a confidential report by
Rear Adm. F. N. Kivette, who was
skipper of the aircraft carrier Mid.
way until his promotion to admiral
last month.
Kivette ordered his own in-
vestigatiau of the Norfolk shore
patrol and sent a sharp report
/ the nRvy, charglnZ that Um
Norfolk SP's were "arrogrant,
dimctatorial , arbitrary, s o m
es abusive and occasiomtlly
brutal."
Kivette's investigation was con-
ducted by Ensign Robert E. Ken-
yon.
Commenting upon his subordi-
hate's report, Admiral Kivette de-
clared: "I believe these to be true
and not isolated cases."
The admiral also added: "The
very few but brief reports I have
had concerning the condition of the
shore patrol brig are calculated to
induce nausea without a visual in-
Spection."
Merry.Go-Round
MarrLer Eccles, who has threat-
ened to resign from the federal
reserve board several times, now

up his mind to leave the board on

SCANNING THE WEEK'S NEWS
of Main Street and the World
Truman-MacArthur Fioht Continues;
Chinese Launc.h Spring Otfensive
HOW DIVIDED THE NATION--There was no sign of a letup in the
treat quarrel on whether President Truman did right or wrong when
he fired Gen. Douglas MacArthur from his Pacific commands. If any-
thing, the man on Main Street was hotter under the collar than ever
before following the general's impressive speech before congress. The
line of dispute was clearly drawn: The general's supporters believed his
proposed plan of action in Asia the only possible realistic one; his
opponents were just as positive his plan of action would mean world
wide war. The great controversy
caused many in the home towns to
wonder just how divided can a nation
become and still effectively battle
communism?
The two viewpoints on the Tru-
man-MacArthur controversy were
expressed by Senators Taft and
Kerr. Senator Taft charged "the
Truman administration is working
both sides of the military and
political street" and called for bomb-
ing of Chinese airfields and a naval
blockade of her coast. Senator Kerr,
on the other hand, said he is con-
vinced MacArthur's military strat-
egy "would hurl us downward to
the awful road of total war."
TH MILITARY-- General Mac-
Arthur in his speech before congress
said the joint chiefs of staff con-
curred with his view on conduct of
the war in Korea. This brought an
immediate statement in which the
joint chiefs said they had been unani-
mous in recommending the dismissal
of MacArthur. The statement said:
Ticker-Tape Blizzard "Operations in the far east are be-

14 years, armed services committees to ex-
plain the conduct of the Korean conflict. The testimony will blow hot
and cold. It will be up to the home-towner to sift it and find the truth.
THE UNITED NATIONS--Members of the United Nations, whether
they were in agreement with General MacArthur's policy in the far
east or not, were almost as impressed by the general's address as were
members of congress.
But the general did not gain any votes in the U.N. for following his
policy. His speech confirmed many delegates in the belief that a
yawning gulf separates his concept of the way to defeat Communist
irnperialism and that of the United Nations. Only on one point was there
any degree of accord--his demand for an intensified economic blockade
of Communist China.
ON THE FRONT--And while the politicians ranted over how the
Korean conflict should be conducted, the North Koreans and Chinese
Reds opened their long awaited spring offensive. First reports from the
front indicated a break-through in the mountainous central sector of
Korea by an estimated 400,000 enemy troops. Approximately 300.000
others were reported attacking in other sectors of Korea.
First withdrawals amounted to as much as 15 miles, Allied officers
reported, with the Chinese suffering heavy casualties. Nearly 9,04)0 Reds
were killed or wounded by artillery alone on the first day crf the attack,
the eighth army estimated. Swarms of planes claimed an additional toll
of nearly 2.000.
SALES TAX--The Committee of Americans, reportedly a nonprofit,
fact-finding research-survey organization covering all 48 states and
Hawaii, reports a recent survey indicated the majority of the nation's
businessmen favor a retail-sales tax on the federal level.
The organization said it sent questionnaires to some B0,000 business-
men, of whom more than 15,000 replied. The businessmen were said to
favor the sales tax by 62 per cent; 12 per cent for such a tax at the
manufacturer's level; and 26 per cent opposed to any sales tax.
Whether or not the survey reached to the Main Street businessman
was not indicated, but it could hardly be conclusive unless he was con,
sulted.

bureau reported.
Hardware stores recorded a 22 per cent sales rise; dry goods and
general merchandise stores a 20 per cent Jrise and jewelry stores a 15
per cent rise.
The agency said its figures were based on reports from about 10,000
independent stores. The department gave out no actual sales figures.
PROBER HAILS PRESS---Senator Kefauver, speaking before the
American Society of Newspaper Editors, said his committee's celebrated
investigation rote crime could not have succeeded without the support
of the nation's press.
The senator restated l-ds theory that the place for "action against
gamblers and other underworld elements is Main Street, not Pennsyl.
vania Ave., Washington."
All the press joined in the effort t eposing crime, Kefauver said.
"That spark was instrumental in setting off the explosion that has
followed."
