'New Dealer’ Charge,
Worst in Taft's Book,
Is Hurled at Stassen
Senator's Distress Shows
Opponent Ruffles Nerves
In Battle Over Liberalism
By Doris ^Fleeson
CLEVELAND, April 24.—Harold
Stassen has got under Senator Taft's
skin—but definitely.
The Minnesota interloper has
forced Washington’s Mr. Republican
back onto the mashed-potato-with
green-peas circuit and needled him
into defending himself against
charges of being a moss-back.
The Senator’s yelps of distress
and indignation are honest heart
felt and would be comic if they were
not at the same time a little pa
thetic.
The result of it all is the spec
tacle of the two foremost Republican
candidates for President chasing
each other in a competition to snatch
the laurel wreaths of liberalism, and,
in effect, crying:
‘‘Who’s a liberal? Whatcha want?
I got it!" And this in Ohio, land of
Mark Hanna and William McKinley,
too! It looks now as if Henry Wal
lace can’t get on the ballot here,
but maybe they won’t miss him.
At the same time that he is vying
with Mr. Stassen to prove that he
is the repository of true liberalism,
the Senator has hurled at his rival
the worst political epithet he knows
—New Dealer. This charge is so
frightful in Senator Taft’s eyes that
even at this crisis in his fortunes
he forced himself to give Mr. Stassen
the benefit of a doubt. ‘'If,'’ Sena
tor Taft prefaced his remarks, Mr.
Stassen is more liberal than he or
the Republican Congress, h? must be
a New Dealer.
Stassen Smiles.
Clearly well satisfied with the ef
fects he is producing, Mr. Stassen
says ‘‘No comment”—with a big
smile.
Both candidates then proceed to
speak Well of Federal programs like
housing, aid to education, health
and such like—matters which the
lay observer has long associated with
the N_. D_ Regarding these is
sues, it would in most respects be
difficult to insert a blotting paper be
tween the rivals.
Mr. Stassen’s parting shots—he
goes home this week end—are cal
culated to produce more Roman
candles. They are attacks upon
Senator Tafts prewar isolation
and his efforts to pare down the
Marshall Plan, plus a challenge to
support:
1. A second year of the plan if
it's successful.
2. A strengthening of U. N.
3. An invitation to other U. N.
members to join us in new, concrete
moves to cope with any aggression
anywhere.
Two Points of Disagreement.
Mr.: Stassen, who. as a rule, plays'
them close to his chest, makes no
bones of his belief that this speech
is pretty hot stuff.
It remains to be seen how deeply
Senator Taft can be coaxed to bite
on it. Retreating from it would
put him again on the defensive.
His acceptance of it would be one
of the most sensational trips to the
mourners’ bench ever seen in,
America
Two issues on which the candi-;
dates do disagree are:
1. The oleo tax. Senator Taft is
for the soy bean and Mr. Stassen
for the cow.
2. The Communist Party. Mr.
Stassen says outlaw it. Senator
Taft says that’s not practical.
The rivals were both bedded
down last night under the non
political roof of the Carter Hotel
here—Senator Taft in the honey
moon suite, Mr. Stassen in the
Governor's suite. The Carter has
a presidential suite, but says firmly
that it is occupied by Joe Zilch,
politics unknown.

This Changing World
Marshall Show s Fatigue as U. S. Delegates
Plug Along to Conclude Bogota Work
By Constantine Brown
Only the determination not to
yield to the pressure of the Com
munist conspiracy keeps the dele
gates of the United States and the
Latin American
i republics plug
ging along to
1 conclude their
■ work in Bogota,
j Conditions in
1 the Colo mbian
.capital, which
1 was the scene of
a violent Com
munist-o r g a n -
I ized revolt, are
bad. Public utili
ties and other
services are
barely function
ing. There is a
serious shortage Constantine Brown,
of goods, but the American delega
tion—like many others—receives es
sentials by plane from outside.
Secretary of State Marshall, who
! has decided to return to Washing
ton before the conference com
pleted its labors, has felt the sit
| uation keenly. He spent most
of his time in the private home
which the Colombian government
placed at his disposal. The house
was surrounded by military forces
| which permitted visitors to enter
only after careful scrutiny of their
: credentials and after making cer
| tain that they carried no concealed
j weapons.
Shows Signs of Fatigue.
| The 67-year-old secretary is said
| to be showing definite signs of fa
jtigue. When he left Washington
| nearly four weeks ago his close
! friends and associates hoped that
his stay in the Colombian capital
would not exceed two weeks.
Bogota is situated on a plateau,
12,000 feet above sea level. Such an
altitude is hard on persons not ac
climated to it, particularly if they
are overworked and no longer in the
prime of life.
Although Gen. Marshall is known
for his even temper and steady
I nerves, his 16 months as the United
States’ top policy-maker have been
hard on him. The conferences he
has attended since the abortive Mos
gow conference a year ago have
een depressing affairs, particularly
for one so keenly concerned with
preservation of peace.
The life he led in Bogota was
also nerve-racking for the highly
dignity-conscious wartime Chief of
Staff. He could not move inside his
own house near Bogota without be
ing followed by an armed guard
who watched over him night and
day.
When he left his residence to
go to the National Capitol in
Bogota, where the delegates of
the American republics are gath
erir*?, he used an armored car at
the urgent request of the Colom
bian government, which was re
sponsible for his personal safety. It
was escorted by light armored cars.
Meetings Are Gloomy.
The conference meetings, which
were resumed as soon as order was
restored in Bogota, are gloomy af
fairs. The streets adjacent to the
building where the delegates meet
resemble an armed camp. The
Capitol itself is heavily guarded
by reliable Colombian troops and
by secret service agents of all
the nations represented. In
side the Capitol Colombian detec
tives and foreign secret agents are
; found everywhere.
The nerves of all the delegates are
frayed. The habitual composure
of professional diplomats gath
ered at international confer
ences has disappeared. On the
first day that the conference re
sumed after the shooting and dis
order had died down the nervous
tension manifested itself. An auto
mobile backfired in the courtyard
and the delegates ducked under the
conference table.
In such a tense atmosphere no
real constructive work is likely. Yet
the American delegation decided to
see the conference through in order
not to give the Communists the sat
isfaction of having broken up a
historic meeting of the Western
Hemisphere nations.
On the Other Hand
TV A Effort to Meet Approaching
Power Needs Fought by Utilities
By Lowell Mellett
In the face of a national power
shortage and with the need for
power Increasing in all parts of the
I country and in the face of Govern
I ment plans to
put American
j industry on a
power-devouring
war basis if it
' should b e co m e
| necessary, pri
1 vate utilities are
making an all
out effort to
limit the power
supply of the
Tennfessee Val
ley. They are
seeking to mobi
lize every friend
they have in
Congress to pre- i-oweii Meiiett.
vent approval of a $4,000,000 item in
the TVA appropriation with which
to start construction of an additional
steam plant, although it has been
made clear that increased power
capacity will be required by 1951.
It is their hope that the House
Appropriations Committee will use
its strategic legislative position to
carry out this strange policy. Hear
ings are now being held by a sub
committee.
Spokesmen for the private utilities
do not argue that existing private
companies can take care of the load
themselves. They cannot, since TVA
is the only power supplier in the area
jit serves. They do not argue that
they are trying to prevent wasteful
competition ' or protect any sub
stantial investment. They cannot,
since they have no investment in
the area; they own no lines, they
j have no customers, there is no
competition.
They don't say the power isn't
needed. They know, better than
most, that it is. They suggest, or
j some of them do, that if a shortage
I should occur in the valley, then
TVA could cut off its industrial
| customers. These industries, pre
| sumably, would move to other parts
of the country. As a matter of
fact the subcommittee is receiving
letters and telegrams from cham
bers of commerce and similar or
ganizations complaining that con
tinued development of the Tennes
see Valley menaces their local
industries. Congress members are
asked to protect their own distant
districts against alleged TVA com
petition.
TVA's most important customers
include the Oak Ridge plant of
the Atomic Energy Commission and
the privately owned heavy chemical
and light metals plants on which
the country will have to depend
again in case of war. The stock
holders. bondholders and employes
of these industries are not joining
In the campaign to curtail TVA
power production.
Much is being said, of course,
about free enterprise and the need
to guard it against Government
encroachment. But the 1,800 new
business enterprises that rely on
TVA for power can hardly be im
pressed by this solicitude. Nor
can the enterprising farmers of that
region. In the days when the pri
vate companies had their own way
in the valley they provided about
a billion and a half kilowatt hours
of energy a year. They had 350
customers. One farm in 28 had
electric service. Last year, TVA
produced 15,000,000,000 kilowatt
hours and its power served 800,000
customers. Better than one out of
every two farms is now electrified
and new farms are being connected
with rural co-operative lines at the
rate of 5,000 a month.
The people of the whole country
: have a stake in this issue. The
whole country benefits from power
development and industrial expan
sion in any part of th* country.
The Tennessee Valley has not only
become a producer of goods, it has
become an important market for
the goods produced in other sec
j tions.
The people of the country have
a stake also as taxpayers. Their
money has gone into TVA. Rev
enues now received from the sale j
of industrial power are a substan
tial help in paying back the Fed
eral investment. #
Short-sighted selfishness and dog
in-the-manger sectionalism have al
ready done much to mar the record
of this Eightieth Congress. But it
is hard to believe that, with a pow
er emergency already existing in the
United States and a greater emer
gency threatening, these two blind
forces will be successful in the pres
ent instance.
