WEDGEPORT, Nova Scotia, Sept 19—Tuna fishermen from all over the world are putting their gear away today and find it hard to believe the seventh international tuna match is over. It isn’t only because the fish were so. scarce, either. A letdown after the competition is certainly present. More than that, however, is the fact that for three days many directly and indirectly connected with the tournamént haven't had a moment of relaxation.

Anglers Up at 5 A. M.

IN ORDER to go'out in the boats, one must rise at least by 5 a. m. A hasty breakfastx must be" eaten, gear checked, lunches packed and proper clothing (heavier the better) either put on or taken. The dock is crowded with guides searching for the people going on their boats. Their sturdy craft are jammed one against another and often vou have to climb over 10 to 15 boats before you're aboard. Each morning,» during the tournament, was foggy. Two days it was drizzling and one day a light shower was falling. My Nova Scotia notebook, for the last day of fishing, is written in a heavy hand. . - That was the morning Tony Hulman and Dr. Leon: Stotz, the Massachusetts fisherman, were to have all the good luck tokens and changes aboard. Chile was leading and teams of the British Empire, Scandinavia and United States were without fish. It was so foggy vou could barely see the tip of your nose. A bone-chilling precipitation was tak-. Tony Hulman took the lead and I hung bn his jacket. Jerry Boudreas, captain of the Clair Jay, swung a lantern and waved his other hand to follow. The fishing-boat obstacle course that morning was laid out by an expert. Over sterns and prows

Up here the guides consider pea- soup fog, light enough to travel in. Jerry gave the starter button ‘a poke and the lone bulb in the cabin went out. The battery went dead. Where he got another battery is still a mystery. In 10 minutes we were on our way.|

In the light of day and on shore, comfortable in a pleasant cottage overlooking the quaint dock with the over-powering fish smell, things like I have described seem relatively unimportant if you're out of your right mind.

By Roberr.C. Ruark

NEW YORK, Sept. 19—The American press has not been particularly powerful, to now, in ite influence over the realm of Mr. Truman, whose dogged devotion to his appointees has depleted his duty to the people who elected him. But in the sacking of War Secretary Louis Johnson I think the Press at least rates a heavy assist.

The President's attitude, since he beat Tom Dewey, has been cocky in the extreme, and he has spurned criticism with the stubbornness of a wayward child. His exaggerated sense of political loyalty to his political pals has caused him to wall his eyes and snort every time somebody has suggested that he was not, perhaps, immersed in the best talent the land could afford. In at least one instance, his surly support of Louis Johnson as defense chief put the country in jeopardy.

Had Done Nothing Right

JOHNSON QUITS (all right, he was allowed to resign) with a clear record of having done nearly nothing right. He weakened, for political purposes, where he should have strengthened. He courted and won open revolt by his ham-handed treatment of. the separate services. He made false statements as to our military readiness, and encouraged a foolhardy sense of security. To the best of my knowledge he was trusted and respected by nobody in the upper echelons of the professional fighters. He was regarded strictly-as what he is—a campaign dough-raiser for Harry Truman's political gang. He was roughly as fit for a job as chief of defense as Secretary Matthews was fit for the job of Secretary of the Navy Johnson made his enemies as his chief has made enemies—out of dumb bullheadedness and involuntary ineptness. Instead of a concerted effort toward preparedness, which Johnson always assured us was in the works, his time in office has been a ratrace, full of lip-service economies and intramural warfare.

' His conduct of his office reaped a disgraceful open

A steady! drumbeat of demand for his hide has been thudding for a lot of months until finally, the fanatically “loyal” Harry was forced to give him the flip. { An admission has been forced from Mr. Truman that some issues are bigger than a4 payoff for political services rendered, and that the time] has come to hire pros instead of dandling lap dogs.

Yet, my bride's guernsey, Clarabelle, may have an entirely different opinion. The White House Correspondents’ Association I likewise number among my clubs. The main duty of this organization is to stuff the President twice a year with a good deal more food than is good for him. And also make him get into a hardboiled shirt while eating it. This is torture for Presidents. The association in addition is involved constantly in its own election shenanigans, It is strictly undemocratic. Probably suspect, by Senatorial standards.
