Washington Calling— Convention Being Master - Minded From Washington

(A weekly size-up by the national ‘staff of the Scripps-Howard Newspapers.) WASHINGTON, July 19—Democratic’ picture's not

"as confused as you think.

Major decisions about the ticket, platform are being made in Washington, not Chicago. ; That's one reason why President Truman went to Walter Reed Hospital this week. He needed privacy, freedom from demands by candidates, pressures by White House cronies. No telephones. : Master politician Truman has his eye fixed firmly on November. He's mapping strategy for victory—balancing this faction against that one; assessing Republican strength and weaknesses; spotting where electoral votes are concentrated and how they're likely to be won. Present lineup of delegates gives Mr. Truman all leeway he needs in pulling strings. You can go down list, count more than 200 the President’s candidate will get automatically, Also, there are about 400 more “un-

Only a strong coalition could stop a man backed by Mr, Truman, and that isn’t likely, Sen. Kefauver’'s votes won't be handed to Sen. Russell. Sen. Kerr's strength won't be turned over to Sen, Kefauver. Sen. Russell's votes won't go to Mr, Harriman. And so on. Yet, differences among candidates aren't so sharp as to

‘bar a harmony ticket—when

HET maps it all out, passes the word.

Truman Means No

THE CANDIDATES: Some of Mr, Truman's close friends haven't given up on drafting him, He meant it when he said no, but such things are never settled until the roll is called. . . . Gov. Stevenson

meant it, too. His speech to -

the convention is only 1200 words, is not designed to draw an ovation. Illinois delegation caucus Sunday morning should tell the tale on him. ., . Averell Harriman’s strong organization is talk of Chicago. New York’s Paul Fitzpatrick is dead serious about Mr, Harri‘man. Apparently all he needs

him over, Gossip on Vice President

* Barkley 1s that feud between

pss. Truman and Mrs. Barkley is a factor in holding up presidential nod in that direction. « . . Sen, Kefauver has

“most enthusiastic supporters

(as "well as most delegates), but makes no visible progress with big city bosses. . . . Report that Sen. Paul Douglas (Illinois) might be compromise candidate is squelched firmly by Mrs. Douglas.

The Russell Story

HERE'S THE STORY behind Sen. Russell's statement on Taft-Hartley: His. advisers convinced him he had to break out of the South in an early show of delegate strength to have a chance at nomination. The statement was aimed particularly at Illinois delegates. Chicago Boss Jake Arvey admires Sen, Russell ~— after Gov. Stevenson, of course—but Mr, Arvey felt he could not go for Georgian without some show of “liberal thinking.” : Sen. Ed Johnson of Colorado, Sen. Russell’s campaign manager, and Sen. Lister Hill, an Alabama supporter, persuaded Sen. Russell it was good strategy to make satement. Matter of fact, Sen. Russell said almost same thing in his Florida campaign (that TaftHartley Act needed some changes). The word, he used this week was “supplant,” not repeal.” He makes point that he wants a new labor law,

Youngsters Hoping

LIGHTNING that struck young Sen. Nixon at GOP convention had an electrifying effect among Democrats. So many young hopefuls now think they have a chance to be Vice President, they almost have to wear badges to keep from soliciting each other's votes. »

Kefauver Boner

KEFAUVER strategists pulled boner when they sent letter to Ohio delegates bragging about how Sen. Kefauver trampled state's Democratic organization in primary. Ohio's 62 delegates are split, 3 for Sen. Kefauver, 31 for Robert J. Bulkley, former Uv. 8. Senator and the machine candidate. Kefauver letters made Bulkley delegates mad just when they were Jeaning his way for second ballot. Kefauver leaders in Ohio delegation are trying to woo Bulkley delegates by promising not to replace Albert Horstman as national committeeman.

It's Different Now = TAFT DEPARTMENT: Only qne reporter met plane which brought him back, defeated, to Washington . . His organization had been SO certain he'd get GOP nomina“tion it had bought thousands of matches with “Bob Taft for President” on covers . . .

SQUABBLE among Taft managers about who was to blame will go on for years. In addition to Brown-Coleman Ruckus, GOP Chairman Ray Bliss of Ohio complains he never even saw Sen. Taft during convention, Sen. Bricker didn’t know he was to speak on the rule till 10 minutes before he was on, but Tom Coleman says he can't find out who asked Sen. Bricker to speak in the first place.

Ohio’s 78-year-old Rep. Robert Crosser (a Democrat) chides Sen. Taft for saying he'll be too old to run in 19586. “Taft will be only 66,” says Rep. Crosser. “I'm for Barkley and he’s 74. The older a man is, the smarter he gets,

Korea Hopes Fade

A KOREAN truce rumor spread through Washington and Tokyo this week, then died, as earlier ones had, when top officials said facts didn’t support it. . Rumors seemed to be based on deal India was trying to work out. Japanese business men were impressed by news dispatch from New Delhi about formula devised by Nehru government. It called for netural zones where Red prisoners of war would be taken, questioned again on repatriation, this time under supervision of United Nations neutrals. This was supposed to save face all around. Japanese noted that Indian ambassador to Peiping recently went to New Delhi for consultations, Japanese financial circles keep on alert—any letdown in our war activities would react at once on Japan's economy.

Tito’s been making friendly gestures in both directions, but:

Greece—It's suspicious of old Yugosiavy ambition to annex part of Macedonia claimed by Greece.

Anti-McCarthy Drive

DRIVE to unseat Sen. Joe McCarthy is gaining ground in Wisconsin — though hope for an “understanding” ‘between Democrats and anti-McCarthy Republicians seems to be out the window. Five GOP candidates, two Democrats, plan to enter primary Sept. 9. Leonard ¥., Schmitt, one of old LaFollette progressives, is leading Republican contender. Deniocrats are Henry Reuss and Thomas E.

To Mask Their World Plot With Legality

Kremlin Needs Breathing Spell

Compiled From the Wire Services

The next American President will meet a “reformed” Communist International, working above ground throughout the world ' and wearing the brass halo of “legality,” George Weller, Times special correspondent, writes from Bombay, Inflia. . India’s Reds are already becoming ‘the mannequins of a safer, shysterish style in Fast. West warfare that probably will dominate the new President's first term,

On all continents the Come

‘ munists, evidently by order,

are soft-pedaling military struggles, transforming civil wars ‘ into cheaper guerrilla struggles, Strikes and antiAmerican demonstrations are being kept within limits,

The pace has béen too hot, and Moscow wants a breather, Mr, Weller reports. In Burma and Malaya the Communist guerrillas are openly fishing for legal standing, like India’s “reformed” Communist Party enjoys. Everywhere from Europe to Indochina the Comintern is trying to establish legal strong points, pending China’s effort to tame or shake itself loose from the Korean tiger. In India the effort is to get the government to release some four or five thousand Red internees.

: Stalin Fading Out For the Communists to ‘go legal” as soon as possible is urgently necessary. With Stalin fading out, the Moscow elite must prepare for some inevitable shocks of rival leadership when he dies, To gain seats in the United Nations for*the satelite countries has become more important to the Kremlin, Mr, Weller states. To President Truman’s successor the Communist guerrillas will not be the menace they have been. These Communist parties—from the Huks of the Philippines to the Elas of Greece—have failed to sheot their way to legality except where directly aided by the Red army, Where Russia has stepped in, as in the Balkans and Manchuria, the “illegals” have usually won. ~The Indian Communist Party

. is a model for the early future,

Experimental pre - electoral revolutions were carried cut in Hyderabad and in Assam. Communists: ended up in two roles—as jailbirds and as lead~ ers of the legal opposition in parliament. In leading the new march toward legality India’s Reds have been immeasurably aided by Premier Nehru's courtship of Red China and his special tolerance for the Soviet-socialism of the sword. Nehru occasionally abjures “Communist methods” outside India, but never by name or instance. Enjoy Legal Status His recent offer to Red China to withdraw the small Indian garrisons from southern Tibet was a fresh sign of the appeasing spirit which keeps India “neutral” and buttresses the Indian Communists. The Communist legal thrust has concentrated in one-third - of India—the states of Hyderabad, West Bengal, Madras, Travancore-Cochin and Little Tripura. Here the Reds now hold one-fifth of the seats in

But they are unable to exploit this position so boldly. - Due mainly to public trials of proved and confessed Communist spies in Russia's service, erupting everywhere from Scandinavia to the Mediterranean, the word “Communist” has lost the heroic glitter. The Kind of communism the new President will face in Central and South America will be about what Mr. Truman has suffered. The Communists there, lacking access to arms, have never gone far with armed revolutions.

It Takes Dough to Heigh-di-ho in Chicago

By ANDREW TULLY

Scripps-Howard Staff Weiter WASHINGTON, July 19—

Dear Democrats: It's going to cost you a lot of dough in Chicago next week and, frankly, you won't have much fun. You won't, that is, unless your idea of fun is a cocktail party on a subway train during rush hour. First, you'd better get used to the idea of waiting for elevators — especially if you're staying at the Conrad Hilton Hotel. Last week, during the GOP fuss, the average waiting time for ordinary mortals was 10 minutes — often you stood around for a half hour before being allowed to wedge yourself in between two fat ladies,

. Mr. Harriman

The Hilton management is ‘very stern about cheating, too. They've got an area in front of the elevators roped off and they herd you in there to do your waiting® Usually, there's a hundred or so people in the corral, all with homicidal thoughts. 80, around cocktail time, you'd like to stop in for a quick one, en? Ha! There's no such thing as a quick one in Chicago at convention time. You line up behind all those people who got to the bar before you —and even at breakfast time the mob is Dollar Day-thick—-and If the bartender feels kindly toward you he may agree to sell you a drink after only 15 minutes of waiting. ] . Bring plenty of dough, too. You can't get a decent dram »

Sen. Kefauver for much less than 90 cents a throw and in the fancier places, like the Pump Room, the tariff jumps accordingly. The Pump Room, by the way, is strictly for big shots, so unless you're with Ave Harriman’ or Estes Kefauver or somebody like that, you might as well go down the street to Poisonous Pete's. Of course, for a $20 tip, somebody might let you into the back room of the Pump Room, after an hour's wait or so. There, it's perfectly simple to get waited on. You just set a deadfall for the waiter, then tie him up with your lasso and keep him tied until somebody brings in the grub. Incidentally, the food is only fair at the Pump, despite all those guys from Oskosh and Perth. Amboy who run around in turbans and baggy silk knickers. But it might give you a thrill to pay all that dough for it. Best steaks in town are in Ye Olde Cellar and in the Sirloin Room at the Stockyards Inn, right next to the convention amphitheater — but you proba won't be able to get in, If you like girlie shows, try the 606 Clab, but don’t expect. to be able to sit down. Finally, you've got to be tolerant of nuts. The town will be crawling with dames wearing

Those old Restoration coxcombes didn't have any more fun at their parties than Washington’s free-loaders did at a shindig the Saudi Arabian ambassador threw for Prince Abdullah Al-Faisal Al-Saud. Although Mohammedans don’t touch the stuff, there was enough booze on hand to keep the entire population of Dubuque drunk for three days. Plus, of course, all kinds of exotic grub, including a few whole roasted lambs.

One strange thing was that,

although the Saudi Arabian Embassy is air-conditioned, the joint was full of well-dressed dames fluttering fancy fans, You half expected to hear 'em saying things like “La, sir,”
