cording to all reports, enjoys good
health and is well guarded by the Sec-
ret Service, so it is hardly possible that
anything untoward will happen to him.
And we pray nothing will. But it is
barely possible that something might.
And Congress should take no risk, how-
ever remote.
Mr. Truman's proposal on its face is
more logical than, the present law. And
it meets the immediate situation. We
hope Congress will adopt Mr. Truman’s
plan without delay, and, having taken
out that prudent political insurance, un-
dertake a long-range study and general
revision of the succession law. For in-
stante, there is the question of whom
would become President, should the
elected President and Vice President
both die between election day and inau-
guration day—a contingency not pro-
vided for in existing law, but not now
an immediate problem.
We believe Mr. Morgenthau would
like to see Congress approve the Tru-
man succession plan, as the best plan
in sight. Mr. Morgenthau is not a man
who would like to have the world’s
heaviest responsibility thrust upon him
by accident. We have a hunch, too, that
whoever is to be nominated for Secre-
tary of State would like to see Con-
gress clear away the Presidential suc-
cession issue first, so tha his confirma-
4 tion by the Senate can be considered
on his qualifications for the State De-
partment job, without political reper-
cussions running to his availability as a
potential President.
This clearly is an emergency calling
for Congress to act.
"But why can’t I use rouge, lipstick and powder, Mom?
How old do I have to be before I can go around like a genuine

Trait of Greatness
DEALLY great leaders are men who
Xv remember to deflect praise to the
people who helped them.
General Eisenhower, accepting the ac-
claim of his countrymen in the name of
the men who served under him, spoke
of himself as being merely their symbol..
Prime Minister Churchill, showered
with praise by the Allied world, passed
it on to England's anonymous airmen:
"Never have so many owed so much to
so few.” ’ -
Marshal Stalin toasted Russia’*, little
people, “without whom marshals and
commanders of armies are not worth
a jot . . ; . the simple, ordinary, unas-
suming people (who maintain the life
of our great state mechanism in all its
branches of science, economy and mili-
tary affairs.”
Of course, one need not be a leader
of masses to exemplify this phase of
greatness. We’re thinking of uncounted,
obscure husbands meeting commenda-
tion for their limited achievements with
some such groping utterance as: “You
ought to meet my Missus. Without her,
I couldn’t have done it.”
other liars, Gommunists and Na-

say that, in poring over some of
the back numbers for September
and October recently, I concluded
that the vote was dictated not by
intelligent decision on political
and moral issues but by a pure,
vindictive hope that one or the
other would be crushed. dis-

mountebark and driven to obscur-
ity in desperate humiliation.

this but, for the defense, if it be
any defense to say that one has

AT SAN FRANCISCO. without pay,
A George gave his art to the Opera
House restaurant without profit.
The envoys and attaches of 50 nations
were served their mid-day meal. It was
the gastronomical hit of the conference,
and it gave George his idea.
Washington, he figured, has become the
permanent capital of the world. There-
fore, it should have a restaurant where the
many truly excellent American dishes
would be served in the manner and in the
quality which by rights is’their due.
Nobody better than George knows the
way to a man's heart. He has heard for-
eigners and Americans, too, remark that
there are no fine native foods and he re-
sents the slur. He wants to vindicate the
cuisine of his adopted land for America,
he keeps repeating.
Already a rich man, he virtually gave
away to his employes two west coast
restaurants which were gold mines. He
now wants to do something for the country
which has done so much for him.
Time, says George, is one of the prin-
cipal ingredients of good food. The curse
of the American’ cuisine is hurry.. A dish
which should take two hours is rushed
through in 15 minutes. Many delectables
require from 24 to 48 hours or even longer
and George gives them all that and to
spare. A masterpiece cannot be painted
with a lick and a promise and so it is with
fine food.

other Government official aside from
the President and Vice President, stems
directly from the people.
The House Judiciary Committee has:
acted favorably on a bill embodying Mr.
Truman's proposal, but no action has
been taken yet by the House or the
Senate. In normal times, with an elect-
ed Vice President in office, it would be
appropriate for Congress to take plenty
of time to study and debate to perfect
the best possible law of succession.
But this is an emregnecy. A situa-
tion has arisen which was not envision-
ed when the present law was passed.
We think Congress should enact Mr.
Truman's line-of-succession proposal
promptly, without further debate—as
an emergency measure. Mr. Truman, ac-

would become president of the United
States.
That is because there is no vice
president, and, since Wednesday's res-
ignation of Mr. Stettinius, no secretary
of state. So under the law the line of
succession passes down to the next
cabinet officer, the secretary of the
treasury.
The law doesn’t make sense. Mr.
Morgenthau, for instance, is head of
the Treasury Department because the
late President Roosevelt wanted his
friend and neighbor for that particular
job. Mr. Roosevelt didn’t choose Mr.
Morgenthau for a potential president.
Nor did Mr. Truman choose him for
that role.

Mor eoven
the last few

that I am anti-labor because I
have run a temper over corruption
and other excessive behavior and
that I hate foreigners because I
think we should bar the doors
until we. ourselves, have jobs,
opportunities and homes to live
in.
It has seemed to me that the
questions whether I sm anti-labor
and whether I think all immi-
grants are devils are beside the
point and tended to substitute a
personality for issues as the sub-
ject of discussion.
I think, however, that my little
emberrasament has been the re-
sult of conditions that have had
a similar effect on all of us, such
as the long depression, which was
a nice, upholstered euphemism for
panic. our politics the Roosevelt
experiments in gentle revolution
and, finally, the war, and the con-
current decline in sports and other
grim frivolities on which we used
to exvend our passions. In other
words, aren't we all and, so, why
