Scandal Hunting 4 By Scripps-Howard Newspapers : WASHINGTON, Apr. 5 —It looks like Truman “clean-up” is over. J. P.

his stretch as Attorney General's assistant. Gen. Alfred Gruenther is no shoo-in as Ike's SHAPE successor. He and Gen. Matthew Ridgway are running

neck and neck: Ridgway seems to have slight edge.

In Ridgway’'s favor: He's had major combat commands, while Gruenther has always been staff officer. Ridgway is - popular with officers and men. Top Pentagon men favor him, and President Truman's re‘ported mildly pro-Ridgway. If Ridgway's appointed to NATO, look for Gruenther to get top assignment in new area. ‘

Time for Tension

«- THERE'LL BE a minor war scare this spring—but don’t get excited. There'll be another next fall.

Military men take no chances. May and September are “traditional” months for starting trouble in ‘Europe. They go on alert—just in case. We'll strengthen Mediterranean fleet, restrict leaves and week-end passes to a minimum, hold maneuvers.

Pros in Charge

POLITICS: The game's in hands of pros for next few weeks. They're sizing up bandwagon trends, jockeying for position. Voters don't get to choose between top-runners in next set of primaries.

Taft will clean up Tuesday in Illinois, with only Stassen against him. He's expected to take 50 or 54 of the 60 delegates. Kefauver will get all the Democrats (though that doesn’t mean he'll have them at convention.) Ike's sure to win in New Jersey.

Stevenson groundswell fis building up quietly, will begin to show once Tuesday primary is out of way. ’ First really tough primary ahead is Florida's May 6. It tests Georgia's Dick Russell against TenAnessee’s Kefauver. Russell has organization support. Kefauver has his crimebusting record—which counts in Miami. Note: Gov. Stevenson is more interested in presidential nomination than he's admitted so” far,. insiders think. Few days ago he phoned southern governor, talked state business which ‘could have been settled on much lower levels,

Air Force Budget

AIR FORCE will have to slash number of groups dras-’ tically—perhaps by 15 or 20— if House appropriations committee cuts stick, Secretary Thomas K. Finletter may resign in protest. He argues Air Force budget is so tightly talJored it can’t be cut without jeopardizing security. But appropriations finab figure won't be fixed till Senate has its say. Navy's furious, also, about elimination of funds for second super-carrier, is trying to get House to reconsider.

Counting Chickens

REPUBLICANS, hopeful of winning this fall, have started plans for taking over federal tronage. Pa ae leadership of Rep. Charles A. Halleck (R. Ind.), they battled hard this week to keep Democrats’ omnibus judgeship bill from reaching House floor. They'll try to kill ft when final vote comes after oi r recess. ; Rr {s to hold up bHl till new administration takes Over. If it passes now, Democrats get chance to name 23 more 8. : JUEER divaiis are laying plans, also, to repeal 1048 Mahoney act, putting postmasters under civil service, with job tenure

. till retirement. Democrats

have sent up 375 postmaster nominations this year to Senate. Republican Sen. Ives is holding up 26 New York nominations. ;

Vote Watchers

PROF E SSIONAL soldiers and sailors are becoming involved in politics whether they like it or not. Adm. Arthur W. Radford, Pacific Fleet commander-in-chief is waiting to see whether Taft is elected before deciding on retirement. If a Democrat wins, he'll go. If it's Ike, he may stay around for awhile. © If Tart wins, Radford expects to be Chief of Naval Opera+ tions, - = " . On the other hand, Joint Chiefs of Staff make little effort to disguise how they feek ‘about Taft, since his attack "on them. They'll all leave their respective services if Taft wins. © ea You might not guess it, but Ike has never been first choice at Pentagon. It's always been Truman. His withdrawal was severe blow to top military

KING COMMITTEE has learned that Daniel A, Bolich, though once No, 2 man in Internal Revenue Bureau, doesn't know how to make out his own income tax return.

He's second Internal Revenue official whe couldn't fill out return properly. Charles Oliphant, who resigned as general counsel, was first,

Hitting Back

CONGRESSMEN are starting to hit back at people who demand federal economy and pork barrel funds in same breath. : Rep. Jamie Whitten (D. Miss.), chairman of subcommittee on agriculture appropriations, got an “economy” letter this week from Westerner, wrote back with chapter and verse about same man’s demand for money to fight spruce bark beetles. And Alabama’s Sens, Hill and Sparkman are comparing signatures on earlier letters denouncing “socialistic spending” and new batch demanding action to get funds far Army engineers’ proposed Coosa River project in Alabama. President Truman left it out of his budget this year. Birmingham steel industry wants water navigation; other Alabama industries want electric power it was to have developed.

Weekly Now

SINCE KOREAN truce talks slowed down fighting, Gen. Omar Bradley no longer briefs President Truman every morning. For months he and his aids went to White House daily with situation maps. Now he goes once a week, briefs President and cabinet, . . . Sen. Russell, Southern Democratic candidate for President, has a new gimmick. Anyone who visits or writes his sheadquarters is issued credentials as “vice chairman of the Russell for President Committee.” , . , Navy's planning to go into clothing market again. New uniform has been approved for Navy fliers and aviation nurses. They've been wearing traditional blues, will switch to shade of winter green worn by Marine officers.

Buttoned

FORMER Sen, Scott Lucas of Illinois, who campaigned in New Hampshire against Estes Kefauver, wondered why his friends at a, Washington golf club snickered whenever they looked at him one day last week. Finally he discovered he was sporting one

of Kefauver’s coonskin cam-

paign buttons in his coat lapel. Lucas-Kefauver feud is famous. Lucas blames Kefauver’'s crime expose in Chicago -for his defeat. The campaign button was practical joker’s work.

Talk of TV Pool

PLAN FOR POOLING applications for new TV channels—so cities can have TV while Federal Communications Commission is deciding among applicants—is being talked here. It may be tried in Denver and Evansville. Trusteeship would be formed of all stations seeking local permit, would operate until FCC picked winner—which would then take over.

‘Integrators’ Pop Up All Over West Europe

To Form Tan

Who Pays Bills? Nobody Knows

Complied From the Wire Services If Western Europe became “integrated’ or ‘'federalized” tomorrow a‘ whole army: of professional and amateur enthusiasts would be. out of work or minus their favorite” cause, William H. Stoneman, Times special correspondent, writes from Paris. European unity has attracted followers with all the maganetism of a religion. The number of organizations now officially dedicated to the idea is so vast that -0body has even been able to prepare a complete list of them. The official organizations are easier to keep track of than the unofficial, amateur outfits which are so numerous that in some cases they compete with each other for members. - The principal official bodies include: " The Brussels Treaty Organization, a hangover from the days of Western Union, the smaller predecessor of the North Atlantic Treaty organization. Headquarters in London, And the 15-nation Council of Europe, with headquarters at Strasbourg, the closest thing to a European government which it has been possible to create.

Seek Real Powers

In May attempt will be made to give this body real powers by linking it to two ‘embryonic bodies that are due to have super-governmental powers, namely: The European Defense Community, which’ control the sixe nation European defense force, The Schuman Plan Organization which will supervise a

" coal-and-steel pool among the

same six countries; France, Italy, Western Germany, Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg. ’ The North Atlantic Treaty Organization which includes all 14 members of the Atlantic Tréaty. The OEEC (Organization for

European Economic Co-opera-

" tion) which includes 18 bene

ficiaries of the Marshall Plan, and its co-dependent organiza-

~ tion.

And the European Paynfents Union, whose purpose is to ease payment problems and increase trade between mem-

bers of OEEC.

The most important of the non-official organizations is the so-called European Movement. It dominates the show, Afliated to it are 10 individual organizations including: . The European Union of Federalists, the French Union of Federalists, the United Europe Movement, the International Socialist Movement for the United States of Europe, the French Democratic and Socialist Movement for the United States of Europe, the European League for Economic Co-opera-tion, the New International Teams, the French Couacil for United Europe, the French Federal Parliamentary Group, and the Federation, a French. organization.

Who Pays for Them?

Most important of the affiliated organizations is the European Union of Federalists with national committees in 10 different countries. Affiliated with this organization, in turn, are no less than 33 others. Every one of these organizations appears to have an office and an office staff and many of them carry on extensive propaganda or educational programs in favor of super-government. . The big mystery is — who pays fo them. In France, for instance, it is clear -that industrialists and other monied people are not interested in breaking down trade barriers and exposing themselves to German and Italian competition. These people are preventing the government from taking the first logical step toward integration — reduction

‘of trade barriers. So they are

not likely to play Mr. Angel. Some of the money may come secretly from the United States which is deeply interfated in seeing a federated estern Europe to match the unified power of Soviet controlled. Europe.

By GEORGE WELLER BRUNEI, Borneo, Apr.: 5 (CDN)—On Asia's panorama of. proverty there lqoms, up sometimes a serene Monte Carlo of congpicuous wealth. In southeast Asia the newest and strangest of these oases is Brunei, a remote sultanate on the wet green coast of British Borneo. : Like Kuweit, its sandy twin in the Persian Gulf; Brunei has become wealthy overnight. A shrinking little kingdom, torn apart repeatedly by stronger neighbors, it has been rescued from extinction by miraculous geysers of brown petroleum. Brunei has enly 45,000 people.

Brunei’s spending has tripled, but it's still only ‘a tenth of the oil income. - - . THIS TOY CITY, capital of the sultanate, is a Venice of homes built on piles over water, with amphibious eitizens popping about in carved canoes sped by American outboard mators., A protective agreement with the British government keeps the little sultanate barely on the sunny side of independence. The agreement st that British advice must "be heard by the sultan and his council and” “acted upon” meaning obeyed. ~
