Truman And The Dixiecrats ' When the 81st Congress convenes in January, one of the major items on the agenda will be the make-up of the various committees that steer legislation through tne. two chambers of that assembly. ' Under the Republican majority in the 80th Congress, all of the chairmenships were in the hands of the Republicans. Under the Democratic majority in the 81st Congress, the Democrats will control the committees. That is where the rub comes in. In line for some of the chairmanships are conservative Southern Democrats who fought Mr. Truman in the Democratic convention in Philadelphia and during the election. What to do with them, and whether to allow them to have control of some of the important committees ' is perplexing some of the leaders in Washington. For example, John Rankin, as conservative a man as taere is and an avowed Dixiecratt can head the veterans committee or the un-American activities committee in the House. 'I he way he ran the House investigations when the Democrats were in control before was only slightly less scandalous than the way J. Parnell Thomas has handled it. To see such a man in charge of the veterans committee is even worse Then there is Senator Eastland. Like Rankin, Eastland, from Mississippi, supported the Dixiecrats. He likewise is in line for an important Senate chairmanship. . .To William D. Whittington from Mississippi, another avowed Dixiecrat, .would go the all-important public works chairmanship. If Mi-. Truman and the Democrats hope to put into law some of the promises they made to the American people in both the party platform and the campaign, such men, who did nothing to help the party and would do nothing to aid the program, should be left out in the cold when the chairmanship plans are passed around. It could be done if the Congress should decide that these men bolted the party durinothe election and did not qualify as Democrats. It has been done. The Southern leaders who bolted Al bmith were read out of the party, and they were throug-h as party members. ,,. T?., Set the Truman program through Congress, something like that might have to be done.

Bing Crowley was "beefing" the other day about all that Our Town's doing in the way of sending food and clothes to Europe. Bing felt that those struggling democracies should look after themselves. But most agreed with Judge Cunningham who said: "So long as any family or individual in Europe is helping hold the line for freedom against the forces of intolerance it's common sense, and common decency, to help 'em." Because that's everybody's fight: To see that individual freedom is

preserved in every aspect, big or little whether it's the right re vote, or the right to enjoy a temperate glass of beer or ale with friends. . And from where I sit, no liberty's too small to overlook. Because the minute one small freedom is threat, ened, all the others are in jeopardy just as the minute one small country loses freedom, all its neigh, bors are in danger!
