Of 'Appeasing Russia'
is Attacked by Taft
9y th« Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA, June 12.—
Senator Taft, Republican, of
Ohio, in a three-speech engage
ment in Philadelphia, criticized
the administration’s “appease
ment of Russia on every point
since Teheran.”
The result, he told the Junior
Chamber of Commerce last night,
Is that "Russia, crusading for the
theory’ of communism, now is placed
in a strategic position.”
Earlier, in a major addreft 12
days before the Republican'conven
tion opens here, Senator Taft de
clared President Truman “is black
guarding Congress at every whistle
stop in the West.”
He called for an Immediate ad
journment of Congress, saying
“there is little use” in keeping Con
gress in session while President
Truman is delivering "an attack on
the principles of representative gov
ernment itself.”
Would Appeal to People.
“We had better adjourn now and
appeal to the people in November
for a vote of confidence in the elec
tion of a President,” the Repub
lican presidential aspirant said.
"Dur gallivanting President,” he
continued, “is making an effort not
only to condemn this Congress, but
to discredit the institution of Con
gress."
.He said Mr. Truman’s attack on
Congress "gives aid and comfort to
those who want to destroy represen
tative government as do the Fascists
and every believer in a totalitarian
state.”
Hammers at Administration.
The Senator hammered at the
need of ‘ an administration which
believes in law and justice in both
his speeches at the Union League,
later at the Junior Chamber dinner
apd again in a radio address over
the National Broadcasting Co.
He declared "it is absolutely es
sential to elect a president who is so
embued with the American prin
ciples of law and justice and liberty
that he will build his whole foreign
policy on that basis.”
Senator Taft discussed the draft
and universal military training and
said "no one knows what is going
on in the Russian mind, so we are
forced to establish armed protec
tfbn to meet any attack.”
But he added "my fingers are
' always a little crossed on military
advice.”
"The Army,” he continued, "has
been so obsessed with UMT that it
has not made an effort in good
faith to get men through voluntary
appeal.”
Savs President Doesn't Understand.
in his Union League address,
Senator Taft said President Truman
"does not understand the difference
between American principles of free
government and communism.
"He doesn't seem to realize that,
communism is an organized, world
wide conspiracy directed from Rus
sia and using every means, legal and
illegal, to extend its influence and
power in the United States.”
Senator Taft said that "Our only
hope of winning the great ideologi
cal war” with the Soviet Union lies
in’ the election of an administration:
1. "Which abhors regulation and
spending and Federal power”:
2. "Which believes in liberty,
equality and justice”:
3. "Which believes in the success
of the American system”;
4. "Which is prepared to spread
American philosophy • throughout
the world, to meet the Communist
crusade with American faith”;
said that "if the President had
his way, there would be an immedi
ate increase in taxes in every cate
gory. Since the wealthy already
pay a greater part of their income
in'taxes, most of the burden would
fall on the middle and lower in
comes.”
President Truman. Senator Taft
said, would repeal the Taft-Hartley
Act “and restore the days when
every small employer was at the
mercy of a labor union officer.” The
President's program “would create
a Nation completely regimented,
choked by taxation, under the dom
ination of centralized bureaucracy
and arbitrary union leadership.”
Eton College in England was
founded in the 15th century, during
the reign of Henry VI.

VANPORT, OREG.—TRUMAN SEES FLOOD DAMAGE — President Truman listened attentively
yesterday as Gen. Philip Fleming, Federal works administrator, pointed out damage caused by
the Memorial Day flood. Between them is Secretary of the Interior Krug. The Army officer is
Col. T. D. Weaver of«the Army engineers. —Ap Wirephoto.
Truman
(Continued From First Page.)
President might have something to
say directly to Henry Wallace #in
view of the third party leader's
strength in California and his ad
vocacy of the Russian cause, but
White House officials said that
phase would not be discussed.
The President will have his op
portunity to deal with Mr. Wallace,
if he desires, however, during his
stay in'the State, which is due to
wind up after a speech in Los An
geles Monday.
The President was coming into
California with the eastbound leg
of the 8,000-mile journey still un
mapped, publicly. It is being as
sumed, however, that the route will
lie through Arizona, New Mexico,
Colorado and Kansas, as the Presi
dent intends visiting his home in
Independence, Mo., before returning
to Washington.
Incidentally, it was said that the
President's selection of a successor
to the late Secretary of Labor
Schwellenbach probably will not be
long delayed.
As the President closed out his
visit in the Northwest his principal
attention was centered on the dis
astrous flood—but he did not ne
glect to hurl a few more barbs at
Congress, though in more restrained
fashion than earlier in the week.
Discusses Flood Relief.
After a flight through “soup"
from Olympia. Wash., to Salem,
Oreg., in midmorning yesterday, Mr.
Truman discussed flood relief with
Federal and State officials, includ
ing Acting Gov. Leslie Scott at
! Portland, where he also addressed a
meeting under Red Cross auspices
in the civic center, and toured the
Portland-Vanport flood area.
An Vanport, the President alight
ed from his car to view the scene
of desolation, where the waters of
Columbia and Willamette Rivers
have reduced a one-time thriving
war-born town to a mass of splin
tered wreckage.
“Just as bad as I thought,” he
commented.
Signs Emergency Bill.
Before leaving Portland the Presi
dent signed the joint resolution ap
propriating $10,000,000 from housing
funds for flood relief. The meas
ure was flown out to him and, with
his siginature affixed, was started
back to the Capitol.
He told his audience there that
he hoped to arrange at once for
grants to farmers to replace lost
livestock. He also repeated earlier
criticism of Congress for cutting out
an emergency fund for the Presi
dent which, lie explained, ordinarily
could have been spent for such an
emergency.
Leaving Portland in the middle
of the afternoon, the President got
back on the rear-platform routine.
He is due in Berkeley at noon
i PDTi and will spend tonight in
San Francisco, where he speaks
at Flag Day exercises tomorrow.
Stassen Follows
Dewey Into South
By the Associated Press
ATLANTA. June 12.—Harold E.
Stassen made a quick preconven
tion swinf? into the South yesterday,
predicted again he would win the
Republican presidential nomination
on the ninth ballot and advocated
"gradualism” in civil rights.
Gov. Dewey of New York returned
to his home yesterday after a simi
lar Southern campaign trip.
Taking no chances on the issue
that sent the traditionally Demo
cratic South into revolt against
President Truman, Mr. Stassen said
civil rights should be handled by
"State action but with Federal in
sistence on results.”
He said he favored State action;
first on legislation against a poll
tax and lynching, better educa
tional facilities for all and improved
health opportunities. Under health
Mr. Stassen lumped housing and
better living conditions.
He made his comments at a news
conference before a hasty visit to
his Southern campaign headquar
ters here.
Mr. Stassen then remarked thati
FEPC, a plank in President Tru
man's civil rights program that has
aroused particular wrath in the
South, "should be educational at
this time.” 1
"We could not pass and put into
effect the FEPC law as it was pre
sented two years ago," Mr. Stassen
declared.
PAWLING N Y.. June 12 <£>■>.—
Gov. Dewey said last night he thinks
"the sentiment of the South is mov
ing as rapidly toward the Repub
lican Party as the sentiment in the
North.”
The aspirant for the Republican
presidential nomination made the
statement in a radio interview on
his return here from his Southern
campaign trip.

Reds Link Gen. Smith
To’War Instigators'
i
By the Associated Press
MOSCOW, June 12.—The Literary
Gazette asserted today that Amer
ican Ambassador Walter B. Smith
is a member of a military clique
which has taken over the State
Department.
In a full-page spread which in
cluded four articles, the Gazette
attacked ‘‘war instigators.” among
i whom it named Secretary of State
Marshall.
‘ It is now difficult In the United
States to know where the State
Department begins and the general
staff leaves off,” one article said.
The Gazette also txjmpared Gen.
George C. Kenney, chief of Amer
ica's Strategic Air Force, to the late
Field Marshal Hermann Goering
and said. "The American Govern
ment answers for the offensive
speeches of Kenney.”
In a speech May 7 at Bangor, Me.,
Gen. Kenney said "the Communists
will start 'Operation America’ as
soon as they feel that they can win
in a conflict against us ”
He said that if America “gets into
trouble again” tne enemv will come
over by air from the "European
Asiatic land mass over the Great
Circle courses.”
Un-American Probers Plan
Summer, Fall Hearings
»y th* Associated Press
The House Committee on Un
American Activities,, is planning a
series of hearings, beginning with
the Condon rase, that may keep it
active through the late summer and
early fall.
Acting Chairman McDowell told
newsmen today it is "very probable”,
the committee will start hearings
about August. 1 in its investigation of
Dr. Edward U. Condon, head of the
Bureau of Standards.
They may be followed, he said, by
a resumption of the communism-in
Hollywood inquiry and hearings on
immigration and alleged Communist
infiltration of Negro groups. -
An tln-American Activities Sub
committee recently called Dr. Con
don a weak link in the Nation's
atomic security and said he had as
sociated with alleged Soviet spies.
Dr. Condon denied it and asked for
a hearing.
For more ■ than a month a sub
committee headed bv Mr. McDowell:
has been holding secret hearings in
the Condon case. The Pennsylvan- |
ian said there are "only a few more
loose ends to be cleaned up.’’
Two More Pilots Listed
As Topping Sound Speed
Five men actually have flown at
a speed faster than sound in the,
XS-1 experimental rocket plane, the!
Air Force revealed yesterday in add
ing two more names to the list of
pilots.
Mai. Gus Lundquist, 29, »{ Chicago
and Capt. James T. Fitzgerald, 28.
of South Pittsburg, Tenn., were the
pilots added to the list.
Previously the Air Force had said
that Capt. Charles E. Yeager had
flown faster than sound in the craft
and the National Advisory Commit
tee for Aeronautics said that two of
its test pilots. Herbert Hoover and
Howard C. Lilly, had done the same j
thing. Mr. Lilly was killed recently
in testing another high-speed plane,
the Navy's Douglas Skystreak. 1
Union Locals Must Sign j
Red Oath, NLRB Rules
Prtss f_ •
The National Labor Relation#
Board took another step yesterday
'to make sure its facilities are de
nied to unions whose officers havej
refused to sign non-Communist j
; oaths.
The board ruled that an interna
tional union in good standing can
not “front” for a noncomplying lo->
cal union in cases where the local
has to make a bargaining contract!
under the union's constitution or
by-laws.
The ruling Involved the CIO
United Gas, Coke and Chemical ‘
Workers’ Union, which sought bar
gaining rights for 100 employes of
the United States Gypsum Co., Ala
baster, Mich. The board found that
a local of the international union
existed at the Alabaster quarry and
1 that its officers there had not filed
the non-Communist affidavits re
quired by the Taft-Hartley Act,
The law provides that if the of- i
fleers fail to submit the required
anti-Communist oaths, the door of
the NLRB is closed to that union.
The decision is similar to one in i
the case of the Lane Wells Co, Los
Angeles. The board refused to
permit the CIO Oil Workers to ob
tain bargaining rights in behalf j
of a local union whose officers had
not at that time filed the affidavits.
Later it was learned the local union
officer at Lane Wells had complied
—but the principle involved in the!
decision remained a board guide
post.
NLRB Chairman Paul Herzog
publicly apologized yesterday to the
CIO Oil Workers’ Union in testify
ing before a congressional com
mittee.
Mr. Herzog said /the board had
“inaccurate information” in sayin#r
the Los Angeles local had not filed
non-Communist affidavits.
“The principle still holds,” he
added, “but we picked the wrong
people. I want to say here, so that
the world may know, that that par
ticular local was in compliance. We
discovered the mistake less than 24
hours after the ruling.”

Columbia Threatens
New Devastation in
3 Industrial Areas
By the Associated Press
PORTLAND, Oreg., June 12,—The
Columbia River rose today in a
renewed threat to three industrial1
areas in the Pacific Northwest.
President Truman viewed the dev-,
astated flood zone of Oregon and
Washington yesterday as the fol
lowing high spots were developing
In the three-week battle against the;
Columbia and Fraser Rivers in the;
United States and Canada:
1. Water from the Columbia lap- j
ped at a secondary dike protecting
the $43,000,000 Reynolds aluminum
plant east of Portland in Oregon.
Soggy levees remained critical along
the 100-mile industrial and farming
belt from Portland to the Pacific in
Oregon and Washington.
2. The Columbia cracked sagging
defenses on its Canadian head
waters near the half-flooded smelter
city of Trail in British Columbia
One hundred summer homes were
washed away. Levee leakage into
the city increased.
3. United States Army engineers
said Columbia dikes were in critical
condition at Richland near the huge
Hanford atomic energy works in
Washington. The plant itself was
not in danger but the engineers said
they were ready to evacuate work
ers from their homes if necessary.
In Portland, Mr. Truman signed a
$10,000,000 emergency housing bill
that had been rushed through Con
gress. It will alleviate suffering
caused by the Memorial Day inun
dation of Vanport—most disastrous
single blow of the flood.
Meanwhile, the toll for the two
nations mounted to 38 known dead.
Five new victims were added yester
day. One was from Vanport, in
creasing to five the number of bodies
recovered from the smashed war
housing war project.
Damage advanced upward through
yet untotaled millions of dollars.
Only a few hours before Mr.
Truman arrived, another dike caved
in just east of what was Vanport.
While he was here water overran
Portland's $6,500,000 airport, two
swank country clubs, two public
golf courses, a lakeside resort, rich
commercial gardens and homes
where some 5,000 persons lived.
All were on a doomed 10-mile
finger of lowland running eastward
'rom Portland almost to ,$he big
Reynolds plant at Troutdale. Only
a secondary levee stopped this on
rush. This was the vital barrier
Army engineers tried to hold today.

Shift Beauty Shops
In 5th Ave.'Crisis'
By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, June 12.—Shoppers
and motorists stared yesterday as
droves of women in white smocks,
with towels wrapped around their
heads, ran back and forth across
Fifth avenue.
This went on for several hours
and some of the passersby thought
they were seeing a sorority initia
tion.
But the turbanned women turned
out to be only beauty seekers, victims
of a break in a water main.
When the water stopped in a
beauty salon, 50 women were in the
process of having their hair done.
A hundred more were due during tne
afternoon.
So the manager arranged to
shuttle the women to a shop across
the avenue for their shampoos, and
back to the main shop for the final
waving.

By Associated Press
NEW YORK, June 12.—State De
partment agents last night seized j
the passports of 10 American citi
zens and refused thenj permission to
sail on a steamer bound for the

"screened” 31 passengers of mili
tary age bound for Haifa, Alexan
dria and Beirut.
Of the group, 21 were allowed
to sail.
A State Department spokesman
here said the action detaining the
10 Americans was taken "in accord j

Lodge Due to Improve
G. 0. P. Platform Draft
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts
hopes to simplify and improve the
job of drafting the Republican plat-,
form for this year's presidential!
campaign.
The New Englander said yester- j
day his first step will be to recom- '■
mend that the Platform Committee {
breakup into eight subcommittees i
from the start, and work simultane
ously on all important subjects.
Heretofore the public hearings have
been held before the full committee,
which then split up into subcom
mittees, to deliberate.
Senator Lodge has called the plat
form group to meet in Philadelphia
Thursday to organize and begin
public hearings that afternoon. He
hopes to complete hearings Friday
night, and buckle down Saturday
morning to the task of drafting
the statement of principles the
G. O. P. will offer the country in its
bid for the White House.
By this time schedule Senator
Lodge hopes to have, the platform
completed Monday night, June 21,
and presented to the convention for
adoption the next day.
Senator Lodge hopes also to keep
the platform concise and clear. He
is expected to head the important
subcommittee on foreign policy and
defense. There also will be sub
committees on agriculture, labor,
economics and small business, civil,
rights and social welfare, Western
problems and general governmental!
affairs. There will be a general
drafting subcommittee to screen the
planks on the way from other sub
committees to the full committee.
