Asked how serious be might be
about making a' bid-for thesnomina-
tion, he answered: —
‘Serious Consideration'
"If and when the President ceas-
es to be a possibility, then the re-
quest of this group in the Middle
West that I become a candidate
will have very serious considera-
tions."
Other political developments:
1. Gov. James F. Byrnes of South
Carolina told the Georgia legisla-
ture that the South must make
clear that no party or candidate
can take southern electoral votes
for granted.
2. The campaign headquarters of
Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio, GOP
candidate, pointed to the results of
two polls, which Taft led, as evi-
dence of his strength. One poll was
conducted by the Philadelphia In-
quirer and the other by. a private
organization, which checked senti-
ment among delegates to the 1950
Indiana state GOP Convention. .

halting speech was telling the
world:
“It will be my constant endeav-
or, with God's help, supported as
I shall be bmy dear wife, to up-
hold the honor of the realm and
to .promote the happiness of my
people."
, The words , of King George VI
were both prophetic and ironic. In
the terrible years which were to
follow, the king and the royal fami-
ly became a symbol of Britain's de-
termination and a rallying point
with a counterpart in no other na-
tion.
But the 15 years of Geoge’s
reign were to see precious little
happiness. ’
Phrases of Others
It is typical both of the man and
the peculiar place occupied by Brit-
ish royalty that the words of others,
rather than King George himself,
portray the era in which he
reigned.
They are years which have be-
come famous for their phrase-
makers.
The first of the famous phrases
was uttered by George's brother,
King Edward VIII, announcing his
abdication op Dec. 11, 1936.
It-was th speech in which Ed-
ward resigned his throne for "the

The next came less than two
years later, when* Prime Minister
Neville Chamberlain returned ho
from Munich after his conference
with Hitler. Chamberlain announc-
ed: •
‘...Peace In Our Time’
"This is the second time ,In our
history that there has come back
from Germany to Downing Street
peace with honor. I believe it is
peace in our time.”
Peace lasted until the fall of 1939,
and on May 13, 1940—3 years
almost to the day after George VI
had assumed the throne—Winston
Churchill told a beleaguered Bri-
tain:
“I have nothing to offer but
blood, toil, tears and sweat.”
A month later the king's prime
minister said:
"We shall fight on beaches, land-
ing grounds, in fields, in streets
and on the hills."
Two years later, the war was
swinging to the side of the AHies,
but the empire was rocking on its
foundations vfrvom the fury of the
storm. And Churchill grimly an-
nounced:
Lquidation Phrase
“I have no* become the king's
first minister in order to preside
over the liquidation of the British
empire."
‛ But the empire, as such, was
crumbling. Destined for new status
were India, Pakistan and Burma.
Then ame the war's end. a brief
breathing spell and the birth of
such phrases as "cold war" and
