Mix Months- 12.28 oil Month One Month 40 One Month J All Mail Subscriptions Strictly In Advance, Who Stands For What : Republican congressional leaders are drafting what they choose to call an anti-inflation program. Consumers, between bouts of stretching the family budget to cover the grocery bill,' would be well advised to watch this operation vCloselv. .

p Today's prices are as high as they are. because Congress J in the summer of 1946 took the heart out of price control. It j was well known at the time that Republican leaders were the powerhouse behind the attack. They did not have a clear majority then, but through their alliance with the conservative Democrats of the South they held the initiative and ef- j fective control of Congress. In their attack on OPA, the Republicans in 1946 made !

no effort to conceal their determination to weaken price control. When President Truman finally yielded to the onslaught a few weeks before election, the Republicans took the credit for the abandonment of controls. This year it is different. As prices have mounted, the Republicans have shown an increasing inclination to blame President Truman for the end of price control. Even Gov. Stassen, a few weeks ago, charged that the President, and not - the G.O.P., was responsible. When Mr. Truman asked for authority to reimpose con--trols, the Republicans treated it as a dirty trick. Now they ,, are drafting their own "program" in order to pass the buck back, to him. ? The point to notice is that the G.O.P plan definitely 7 does not include resumption of selective " price control. Det spite their attempt to evade responsibility for the original r breakdown of control, they are still following essentially the same policy. I This is, of course, their privilege. It is the privilege of , the people to remember who tood for what when the day of I reckoning ccmes. If Secretary Anderson is correct, and meat prices start up again next spring, consumers should remem- . her that the Republicans opposed holding them down. The i Chicago Sun.

Sullivan Club Meetings FOR THIS WEEK

"Republican morale," says Business Week magazine, "is ; lower than it has been in months." "G.O.P. Congressmen," the publication states, "are dismayed at the way Truman out-foxed them on the inflation . issue. They planned to give him whatever inflation-fighting "authority he asked for Truman's decision to ask for .- sweeping controls put in, items few self-respecting Republicans could vote forv But they1 are in political danger if they : give him only a part of what he asks for and then it isn't 1 enough to do the' job. "So now they see themselves in the trap they had set for Truman. Truman will blame whatever happens to prices on a Congress that didn't give him what he asked for."

Is this a confession or a boast? v ; Senator Kenneth Wherry (R.Neb.) : "Taft! Taft! Everybody is always talking about what Taft has done to the OPA. "I'm the fellow that, knocked outMneat control and I've done more to that bill than anybody else."

Republicans in control of the present Congress guessed wrong when they interpreted the 1946 election returns as a "mandate" for reaction, according to Elmo Roper, public opinion analyst. As a result of this mistake, the public opinion polls show that the Republican chances in 1948 have been sharply reduced in the last six months while the popularity of President Truman has correspondingly increased.
