It's D-day for the forces that have waited for years to rid the country of Roosevelt reforms and wartime controls, The full employment bill will bring quick clash between liberal. and conservative thinkers.

THREE: Korea will be a8 free and independent as possible ° under circumstances. FOUR: China will get Russia may be responsible of Jap armies there.

MacArthur already has announced that American fighter planes will escort the Japanese aircraft from Kyushu. At Ie, the Japanese emissaries will transfere to an American plane for the flight to Manila.

They consider Truman a shrewd organization politician, sensitive to political currents, Democrats Inactive

If the President does give busie ness a relatively free rein in the post-war era, it may leave Republicans without that target to shoot at. Meanwhile, Hoosier Democrats are doing little or nothing to capi= talize on this dilemma. The party is about as lively and enthusiastie as a bear in hibernation. Some Democratic elements are adherents of the defeatist theory that any attempt to swing the Hoosier political pendulum back in their direction would be futile.
