Democrats Worried
At Effect of Ban on
Wallace Speeches
By D. Harold Oliver
Auociatad Prtti Staff Wrltar
The temporary muzzling of Sec
retary of Commerce Wallace had
Democrats privately worried today,
although one leader—Representa
tive Sparkman of Alabama—said
for quotation he thought the rift
would be forgotten by election day.
Republicans repeated assertions
that Mr. Wallace should resign.
They did not hide their Jubilation
over the latest development in a
situation they previously had re
garded as a windfall. The elections
are less than seven weeks away.
Mr. Wallace’s agreement—after a
lengthy showdown conference with
President Truman yesterday—not
to make any more speeches or state
ments until after the Peace Con
ference in Paris had the immediate
effect of depriving the Democratic
party of a Cabinet-rank speaker
who has a wide following among
labor and left-wing elements.
Time Is Indefinite. '
Under terms of the agreement
Mr. Wallace still could take an
active part in the campaign if the
Paris conference winds up by the
October 15 goal new set for it. But
the conference might last longer—
and the election falls on Novem
ber 5.
In any event, some Democratic
party officials were wondering
whether the political harm already
done by disclosure of the intraparty
disagreement over foreign policy
had not been aggravated by the
Truman-Wallace compromise truce.
They reasoned this way: The gag
ging of the outspoken cabinet officer
undoubtedly will arouse the ire of
Wallace followers. The compromise
which permits Mr. Wallace to remain
in the cabinet is not going to sit
well with the anti-New Deal fac
tions of the party. They wanted
Mr. Wallace kicked out.
Might Boycott Polls.
Some Democrats took the view
that Wallace followers would have
no other place to go in the November
balloting because both the Secretary
of Commerce and Senator Pepper,
Democrat, of Florida have discour
aged third-party talk. But most of
these party members acknowledged
that the result could be a concerted
stay-away-from-the-polls move, and
that this would be a distinct ad
vantage to the Republicans.
Mr. Wallace had planned a radio
address Monday night and another
major foreign policy address the
following night at Providence, R. I.,
under auspices of the National Cit
izens’ Political Action Committee.
Mr. Sparkman, head of the Dem
ocratic Speakers’ Bureau at national
headquarters, said he supposed the
12 or 15 other speaking dates in as
many States arranged for Mr. Wal
lace will have to be canceled.
“But I think we can go on our
way,” he told a reporter. “We’ve got
lots of other speakers.
“This is just a ripple and I don’t
see where it’s going to disturb the
election," said the Alabaman, a
candidate himself for the Senate.
“I don’t see where it should hurt
us. It’s a matter that will create a
good bit of discussion of course and
; probably is a little embarrassing to
I the President and Mr. Wallace. But
they met as two good Democrats,
debated it out and reached a settle
ment.”
New low in Cowardice.” j
Representative Slaughter, Demo
crat. of Missouri, defeated for re
nomination after Mr. Truman op
posed him, called {he Wallace agree
ment to keep silent “a new low in
cowardice so far as our foreign policy
is concerned.”
"The country,” he added in a state-1
ment. ‘‘has not yet had a satisfactory 1
explanation with respect to Mr. Wal- ;
lace’s efTort to get left-wing New
York votes at the expense of nationl
security and defense.”
Representative Engle, Republican,
of Michigan, said ‘‘when a cabinet
member does not agree with his
President he should get out of the
cabinet.”
On the other hand, Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt declared at a Liberal party
meeting in New York that she
believed ‘‘Henry Wallace wants ex
actly what the President, the Sec
retary of State and all of us want.”
There was no immediate comment
from State Department officials.
George Adds Comment.
In an address at Tifton, Ga., in
which he mentioned no names, Sen
ator George, Democrat, of Georgia,
former chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee and a
close associate of Secretary of State
Byrnes, contended that “we cannot
stabilize the world if those in high
positions of responsibility are not
willing to support the Government's
policy.”
Senator Taft, Republican, of Ohio,
declared in an interview in Ohio
that President Truman had "at
tempted to play both ends against
the middle—to appeal to the left
wing with Mr. Wallace’s favorable
words about Russia while appealing
to more conservative sentiment by
supporting Secretary Byrnes.”
In Lewis town, Pa., Gov. Edward
Martin told a Republican rally last
night that Mr. Wallace “in his ut
terances is following the textbook of
the Communist party, which stresses
the importance of creating confu
sion as the first step in boring from
within.”

WALLACE KEEPS SMILE—Secretary of Commerce Wallace
smiles and waves at reporters and photographers who crowded
around him as he left the White House late yesterday after a
conference with President Truman in which he agreed not to’
make any more speeches until after the Paris Peace Con
ference ends. —Harris-Ewing Photo.

(Continued Prom First Page.!
the Commerce Secretary's "go-easy
with-Russia” speech at a political
meeting in New York last Thursday
night. .
The “compromise” announced by
Secretary Wallace as he left
Mr. Truman’s office will keep him !
on the sidelines for most—if not all
—of the congressional election cam
paign, in which he was booked for
a 15-State speaking tour by the
Democratic National Committee,
starting Tuesday night in Provi
dence, R. I.
Mr. Wallace told questioners that
program was canceled, and that a
radio speech scheduled Monday also
was out.
Cabinet Rift Believed Widening.
The Patterson-Forrestal blast is
regarded in official circles as evi
dence of widening displeasure in-'
side the cabinet with the line the
Commerce Secretary is following.
Release of their letter by the White
House was regarded as a gesture to
reassure the Kremlin of this coun
try's peaceful intentions.
The “compromise” under which j
the Commerce Secretary is gagged
for the present, was not a surprise, |
in view of the political situation, ob- ]
servers generally feeling that some!
effort would be made to reach a
common ground, so as not to alien
ate any of the Wallace followers.
In authoritative quarters, however,
it was said before the meeting that
Mr. Wallace either would have to
agree to keep quiet or get out.
The Secretary did not appear to;
be unhappy over the outcome as he
left the President just before 6 p.m..
after being closeted with him
since 3:30.
Stopped by a couple of hundred
newsmen clustered in the reception
room of the White House, the Sec
retary, standing in the glare Of
photographers' flood lights, read this
hastily scribbled note in response
to shouted questions about what had
happened:
The President and the Secretary;
of Commerce had a most detailed
and friendly discussion, after which
the Secretary reached the conclu
sion’’—here he paused and Jokingly
commented he wanted to maintain
suspense—‘'that he would make no
public statements or speeches until
the Foreign Ministers' Conference
in Paris has concluded.”
The ambiguous reference to ' For-1
eign Ministers’ Conference” brought
other questions as to whether he
meant the Peace Conference, and
Mr. Wallace agreed to that inter
pretation.
Plied with additional questions as
he went to his waiting car. Mr. Wal
lace said his statement covered
everything—that he was remaining
silent on all topics, and not on
foreign policy alone.
“Are you remaining in the cabi
net?” one questioner shouted, and
Mr, Wallace replied affirmatively.
To another he said that the ques
tion of his resignation had not been
raised at the meeting with Mr.
Truman.
Stands on New York Speech.
Asked what led to his decision to
keep quiet, the Secretary responded

"because I am an honest man,” im
plying that he would not talk un
less free to say what he desired.
He replied "absolutely” when
asked if he stood on the Madison
Square Garden speech which he had
announced earlier would be fol
lowed by others.
The cabinet officer also said he
found the President ‘‘very confident
about peace with Russia.”
Mr. Wallace recalled that the Paris
Conference was expected to be over
by October 15—which would give
him 20 days for campaign talks—
but, he added, that there was no
certainty about that date.
He refused to state specifically if
he would break silence at the end of
the conference.
Returning to the Commerce De
partment, he told reporters there
that “everything’s lovely.”
The Wallace letter which prompted
the Patterson-Forrestal blast, was
evoked by Mr. Truman’s call to his
cabinet to submit thair views on
foreign policy. So far as known,
only he and Mr. Patterson responded
to this invitation. The latter’s let
ter was not made public. The fact
that a copy of the Wallace letter had
fallen into the hands of a columnist
led to its release, after a misunder
standing between the Commerce De
partment and the White House.
The White House put out the Pat
terson-Forrestal letter without com
ment.

to the House of Deputies where
it was approved unanimously.
The House of Deputies today con
curred with the bishops in calling
on the authorities of the dioceses
and missionary districts to discuss
fully the question of church unity
during the three years preceding
the next general convention in 1949.
The resolution was adopted in the
former house by a vote of 333 to 164.
A proposal by the Very Rev.
Claude Sprouse, dean of the cathe
dral at Kansas City, that the reso
lution asking the 1948 Lambeth Con
ference of Angelican Churches to
consider the question of union with
the Presbyterian Church in the
United States of America be referred
back to a joint committee of the
two houses for further study was
defeated. The House of Deputies
was scheduled to vote on the reso
lution itself, which provided that
the Lambeth Conference consider
“the status of our conversations on
organic union with the Presbyterian
Church in the United States of
America.’’
An amendment to the church
canons that a bishop visiting a rec
tor call on him to product his rec
ords at that time was passed by the
House of Bishops. The proposal was
advanced by Ogle R. Singleton.
Washington deputy to the House of
Deputies. The question now goes to
the latter house for action.
The House of Deputies, by a vote
of 359 to 143, voted against changing
Mahops from one diocese to another.
The House of Bishops had previously
voted for the measure. The proposal
is lost, since both houses did not
concur in the action.
A three-year budget* totaling $10,
856,887 was to be placed before the
House of Bishops today for approval.
The budget for 1947, 1948 and
1949 was passed by the House
of Deputies yesterday. The conven
tion will close tomorrow. *
Planned parenthood was approved
by the general convention yesterday.
Both houses passed a resolution
commending the dissemination of
information by doctors and hospitals
leading to a more wholesome family
life.
Allocation of Funds
The committee submitting the
budget provided that $3,386,887 be
allotted to 1947, $3,560,000 to 1948
and $3,910,000 to 1949. The increase
for 1947 is approximately 25 per cent
over that apportioned for 1946.
Three new provisions in the
budget provided for a church press;
a permanent 18-man joint commis
sion—consisting of 6 bishops, 6
presbyters and 12 laymen—to meet
some weeks before the next general
convention to draw up a budget and
hold interviews on it, and for a
‘‘Youth Triennial Convention.” An
Executive Committee of the perma
nent commission will meet period
ically with the National Council to
discuss the budget.
The Right Rev. R. Bland Mitchell,
Bishop of Arkansas, in presenting
the budget report announced that
the Women’s Auxiliary will under
write $50,000 for increases for the
overseas districts. This leaves an
additional $18,080 to be provided for
by the regular budget. Bishop
Mitchell also announced the Wom
en's Auxiliary will underwrite $10,
000 of the proposed $20,000 for the
Chinese district of Yun Kwei.
Provisions for increases in mis
sionary salaries, to meet rising liv
ing costs in various countries, was
a feature of the budget stressed by
the report. Workers in the domes
tic field will also benefit by increases
when evidence of the need of more
funds to meet living costs are ad
vanced to the bishop of each dio
cese.
The proposed budget also includes
an increase of $28,000 for the De
partment of Christian Education
This will bring this department’s
total to $50,900.
Council Members Approved,
The House of Bishops approved
members for the National Council
recommended by the House of Depu
ties. They were Bishop Mitchell
and the Right Rev. A. R. Mc
Kinstry, Bishop of Delaware; the
Revs. John Heuss, jr., of Chicago
and John S. Higgins of Minnesota
and C. McD. Davis of East Caro
lina, Charles P. Taft of Southern
Ohio, S. S. Schmidt of Harrisburg
and Dr. Clark G. Kuebler of Fond
du Lac. They were elected to six
year terms.
Members for the National Coun
cil for three-year terms, who were
approved by both houses, were the
Revs. Robert A. Magill of South
western Virginia and R. R. Brown
of Texas.
The House of Deputies approved
and sent to the House of Bishops
for action today the delegates nomi
nated by the Women’s Auxiliary
for membership of the National
Council. The women nominated
were Miss Adelaide T. Case of Cam
bridge, Mass.; Mrs. John E. Hill of
Philadelphia, Pa.; Miss Anne W.
Patton of San Marino, Calif., and
Mrs. Harper Sibley of Rochester,
N. Y.

Society to 'Rescue'
Horses From Ship
•y th# Auocioitd Frtu
BOSTON, Sept. 19.—The Massa
chusetts Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals prepared to
day to cross striking seamen’s picket
lines to remove 25 valuable horses—
Irish jumpers and racers—from the
S. S. American Forwarder.
The society reported ^iat three
of the animals were ill and the
others were nervbus from their long
stay aboard ship.
Eric Hansen, president of the so
ciety, said longshoremen of both
the AFL and CIO maritime unions
had refused to move the animals
because of the strike.
Charles J. McCarthy, port agent
of the CIO National Maritime Un
ion, said he did not consider it “an
emergency,” and Daniel J. Donovan,
vice president of the AFL longshore
men s union asserted that “the fel
lows won’t work, so what can I do.”
Mr. Hansen said the society was
not going to “see the animals suffer
any longer,” and that its representa
tives would take,them ofT the ship
at low tide when a side port can
be opened and the horses can walk
across a gangway to the dock.
The horses were en route from
Belfast, Ireland, to owners at Long
Island, N. Y„ and Philadelphia.
They will be housed at the Animal
Rescue League until the strike is
settled.
