Azalea Is Symbolic
Of Tarheel History
Better Records Desirable
7 Pity the poor historian who must try
to und the truth about the era we are now
living in. There are more diaries, letters,
memoirs and other documents being ac-
cumulated than ever before But the
sum total probably produces less informa-
tion 01 use to history than, we had be-
fore the typewriter was invented
For one thing, some of the most cruc-
ial decisions made by men in high pub-
lic office are never spelled out in docu-
ments at all. They are often the result
of vernal agreements, and the only docu-
mentary evidence may be a note read-
ing: "This is to confirm our conversation
oi yesterday.".
Because so much history these days is
being threshed out in verbal conference
among men of high position, we are com-
pellea to fall back upon the various ver-
sions offered later by the individual con-
ferees. But, unhappily, the accounts sel-
dom agree Indeed, they frequently are
diametrically opposed
Take, for example, the question of our
changing attitude toward Russia right
after World War II. From President
Truman's highly publicized new book we
get one version From former Secretary
of State James F Byrnes we get another.
From Jonathan Daniels, southern editor
once close to the White House as an ad-
viaer, still another.
Where does the truth lie?
You can run down a long list of events
of recent memory about which the same
dilemma exists. There are half a dozen
different stories in every case. Who to
believe?
Actually, it isn’t just the historian who
suffers from the confusion. The baffled
citizen, trying to decide whether the poli-
cies of his leaders are wise or not, hard-
ly knows where to turn. If he starts with
an already conceived opinion, he natural-
ly will choose the version that suits his
prejudices. But if he is simply seeking
the uncolored truth, he's in a bad way
The answer to this does not likely lie
in wiring all our conference rooms with
dictaphones or taking tape recordings of
everything that passes between top of-
ficials. There is still a great deal of point
in allowing our government to hammer
out the raw material of policy in private
Men's minds operate more freely beyond
the glare of publie attention
Yet there should be no endorsement of
“secret” government, of a process by
which decisions are taken behind locked
doors and sprung on the public complete-
ly cold. Once a tentative policy line is
agreed on among the top brass, it ought to
be submitted for study by all interested
parties. If the subject matter does not
concern security or the most delicate di-
plomacy, it ought to have some measure
of public debate before adoption
This procedure, of course, does not
solve the problem of the historian and
the citizen who eventually would like to
know—accurately—who said what in the
original high-level discussions.
Maybe we should insist, by law, that
formal memorandums be drafted to em-
body all policy decisions, so there will
be no big gaps in the written record And
perhaps we ought to have a special core
of stenographic reporters to set down
the full give-and-take of the preceding
conferences
These materials need not necessarily
be published soon after the event, un-
less this could be done without injury to
the country or to honorable public serv-
ants But they would be available when
the time arrived to pass full and final
judgment on the men and policies invol-
ved.

CAPITAL COLUMN

Treaty-Making at Peak
The Senate’s thumping 66 to 10 rati-
fication of the Japanese Peace Treaty
represents the "greatest deliberative body
in the world ' in one of its more enlight-
ened moods These have not been too fre-
quent in recent times
The treaty with Japan, already ap-
proved by five other countries, and by
France Friday, is a new departure in
peace pacts. It is not vindictive and puni-
tive. It is designed to promote among the
Japanese a wholesome growth of democ-
racy, a sound, self-sustaining economy
and a friendly partnership with the free
nations in the battle against communism.
Unquestionably the pact is not perfect.
It represents the range of agreement that
was possible among all the peace-making
powers. No country will be wholly satis-
fied. If any were, the others would be
dissatisfied.
But this treaty was ably conceived and
hammered out. Many tributes have al-
ready been paid to the principal archi-
tect, John Foster Dulles. Final congratu-
lations are now in order
Dulles is a Republican, but a number
of GOP senators were not by this fact
shaken out of their customary opposi-
tion to American foreign commitments
of whatever sort. And they were joined
by Democratic Senator McCarran of Ne-
vada, who also finds it necessary to be
against things that involve other govern-
ments.
Nevertheless, the majority in both par-
ties backed the treaty, and all efforts to,
attach crippling reservations or postpone
action were beaten It was widely recog-
nized that this pact would do more to
introduce elements of stability in the Far
East than anything that has appeared on
the scene since World War II ended.
This is the first major treaty to be
adopted without the participation of our
erstwhile Russian allies. It is an indica-
tion that we need not wait forever to at-
tempt the creation of order in those por-
tions of the world where our strength is
commanding.
As if to emphasize the lesson, the Sen-
ate simultaneously ratified three accom-
panying security accords covering the Pa-
cific area. Two were mutual agreements
between the United States and the Phil-
ippines, and the U S and Australia-New
Zealand. The third is a pact between this
country and Japan, providing for the sta-
tioning of American troops in the Japa-
nese islands, and otherwise reinforcing
the peace treaty
The 1952 session of the 82nd Congress
is unlikely to be distinguished for much
bold legislation, since election necessities
normally exert a taming influence upon
the lawmaker. The ratifying of the Jap-
anese treaty may well be the real high-
water mark for Congress this season.

Taft Shakes Up 0 rganization
Battle of Favorite Sons
By PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON (NEA) —In spite of New
Hampshire, Kefauver. Russell and everything,
else, backers of President Truman for another
term In the White House insist that he is still
in A-1 position to get the nomination — if he
wants it. They argue
Kefauver won the New Hampshire primary
So what?
Sen. Hubert Humphrey won the Minnesota
Democratic primary Sen Bob Kerr of Okla-
homa will win in Nebraska. Senator Russell of
Georgia will win in most of the Southern states
Other favorite sons may win in primaries in
other states. But none of them can win enough
delegates to assure capture of the nomination
By playing off all these hopefuls against each
other, Truman leaves himself as the com
promise” candidate behind whom they might
have to unite.
The real threat to this theory would come
if two or more of the favorite sons should
unite forces in a deal to unseat the President
FLORIDA PROMISES WARM CONTEST
The Russell-Kefauver fight for Florida’s 24
delegates to the Democratic convention prom
ises to be the most interesting primary in the
South. The race is enlivened by Gov Fuller
Warren’s row with Kefauver over his Senate
Crime investigations
Florida's past political performances leave
room for anything to happen, though Senator
Russell has a big edge
In-the 1948 convention. Florida cast 19 votes
for Russell one for Truman in 1944 ’he
state’s 14 delegates supported Senator Byrd of
Virginia at the outset then supported Roose-
velt by acclamation. In the three previous con
ventions the Florida delegation supported
Roosevelt.
In 1928 Florida started out with 12 votes for
McAdoo in spite of the 103 ballots. Florida
never gave more than three votes to the win
nor, Gov. Al Smith. That was the year that
Florida broke out of the Democratic ranks and
voted for Hoover 144,000 to Smith’s 101,000
But in 1948 Florida was 281 000 for Truman
194,000 for Dewey.
President Truman has made no political
speaking dates for the summer, and has an
nouneed no plans for a barnstorming tour
across the country Democratic headquarters
nevertheless says it’s straight dope that the
President will take an active part in cam
paigning against both Democratic and Repub.
lican senators and congressmen who have con-*
sistently fought his "Fair Deal" program
At far aa Republican victims of this intended
“purge” are concerned, they’ll probably wel-
come Truman opposition in their states and
districts as a sure boost for victory.
Concerning Georgia Sen Richard B Russell’s
bachelor status as a presidential candidate, a
New York reader corrects a recent statement
in this column that James Buchanan was Amer
ica'a only un-married President. Actually there
was another — Grover Cleveland. He was a
bachelor when elected President in 1884, but
two years later he married Frances Folsom
the daughter of his Buffalo law partner, in a
White House wedding. And Cleveland was, of
course a married man when he ran and lost
in 1888 as well as when he ran and won in
1892
STEVENSON OF ILLINOIS
Gov Adlai Stevenson of Illinois, touted as a
Democratic build-up man for the presidency
or for the vice presidency in case Truman
runs again — was one of those who seconded
'he nomination of Alben W. Barkley for the
vice presidency in 1946
Sen. Tom Connally of Texas, who used to
be considered Juat salty or amusingly sarcastic,
is rapidly gaining the reputation of being one
of the most crotchety men in town
The change began to be noticeable last sum-
mer when the senior Texas senator was call
ing the roll of a committee at the MacArthur
investigations When he called, "Kefauver"
and got no answer, Connally commented. "Oh.
he’s out catching the crap shooters ” Intended
as a wisecrack, some people thought it dis-
respectful and Connally had to apologize
Recently, Conna. ly brought down the wrath
of the Hawaiians by saying the natives were
not of American descent He has accused Sen-
ator Taft of trying to buy a few slimy votes
in Texas” He got nasty to Senator Watkins
of Utah over interpretation of the North At-,
lantic pact, implying that his opponent couldn’t
read or think He tangled with Senator Brew,
ster over nothing more important than whether
Maine grew onions or potatoes And he quar-
s reled publicly with Mutual Security Adminis-
trator Averell Harriman over foreign aid pre-
grams
to his friends. Senator Connally’s outbursts
are excused as jitters over his campaign for
re-election Underneath, they say he’s still the
same lovable old character.
It is said that if one per cent of the eggs
laid by oysters came to maturity the increase
in oysters would be so rapid that, within 50
years, they would fill the seas, and all the
countries of the world would be flooded by an
overflow of water
A sensation was created by the European
tour of a circus in the 1880‘s. The German
Kaiser was ao impressed with the efficiency of
the traveling show that he ordered the Ger-
man Army to adopt the circus method of feed-
ing and traveling. ,,

( — Any excuse for throwing a
party is s good one.
But they have a particularly fine
excuse for an annual community
wide party here to honor a flower.
The flower is the azalea. It is as
symbolic to the people of historic
Cape Fear as the magnolia la to the
deeper South.
“The azalea is Robert E. Lee
with petals," said one old resident,
summing up the feeling Tarhels
have for these bushes which turn
the countryside into a rainbow of
bloom.
Right now old Wilmington, where
Lord Cornwallis once had his head-
quarters. George Washington
danced and the father of Woodrow
Wilson preached is flooded with
thousands of visitors who have
come to pay homage to a flower.
There are a lot of other side at-
tractions during the unique four day

that he himself has it to enjoy, as

The three great azalea Meccas
around Wilmington are Greenfield

places — Airlie Gardens and fam-

Guaranteed Annual Wage
Is Basis of Steel SIrife
By ROBERT S. ALLEN
WASHINGTON, March 29. — A
highly-significant change has tak-
en place in the Taft organization.
The Ohioan has assumed person-
al command of nis slashing cam-
paign.
There has been no public an-
nouncement of this important
move. Nominally, Taft’s ami-
able cousin David Ingalls is still
campaign director. But now Taft
himself is making all major de-
cisions and mapping out his own
electioneering strategy.
The backstage shift is rem-
iniscent of a similar one that oc-
curred in Taft’s unsuccessful 1948
presidential drive.
That year his campaign manager
was Representative Clarence
Brown (R-O) who retained that
title throughout the fight. But in
the midst of the race, Taft deem-
ed it advisable to personally take
over the reins and he continued to
hold them right through the na-
tional convention.
This year, the switch has taken
place even earlier, apparently due
to Taft’s mounting concern over
setbacks he has encountered
First display of Taft’s new role
was his preemptory cancellation of
an unannounced strategy meeting
that Ingalls had called in Washing
ton, for last week end, of Taft
leaders in all parts of the country .
Virtually at the last moment,
Taft, from Wisconsin, ordered the
pow - wow postponed until a later
unspecified date. Ingalls argued
against this, pointing out that
many of the leaders already were
enroute and it was impossible to
get in touch with them.
Taft s adamant decree caused a
lot of confusion
Strong supporters, like Vernon
Romney Salt Lake City attorney
and Taft leader in that area, trav-
eled more than 2,500 miles only to
learn there was no meeting Also,
that beyond generalities, Ingalls
was unable to import any informa-
tion or directions.
DISQUIETING POLL
Three reasons were behind
Taft’s action.
(1) His blunt belief that the
meeting was premature, (2) his
equally strong view that his future
strategy was dependent on the out-
come of the April 1 primary in
Wisconsin, and W that he - aid
personally participate in such a
meeting but would not be able to
do so because it was imperative
that be remain in Wisconsin to
press his hard-driving campaign
Taft was v r em n .—
the need for that as the result of
a disquieting secret poll made by
Tom Coleman, millionaire Taft
leader in the State

By SAM DAWON
NEW YORK March 29. (—The
dream of many an hourly worker-
job security in the form of a guar-
anteed annual wage — is one of
the issues in the steel wage-price
dispute.
The steel union is asking the
companies to agree to pay at least
three-fourths of what a worker
would make if he worked all year
long, whether there’s that much
work for him at the mill or not in
nay one year. But the Wage Sta-
bilization Board is not buying any
of that squabble. It is tossing it
back for management and the un-
ion to discuss further.
Other issues probably will decide
whether there's an agreement or a
steel strike. But the drive for a
guaranteed annual wage doubtless
will crop up again in other indus-
tries. Interest in it, at low ebb in
periods of full employment, revives
when men are being laid off and
people start fretting about the
chances of another depression.
Demand, as usual, will be strong-
est in industries having wide ups
and downs in jobs — where the
workers are haunted most by the
fear of unemployment. And here
management will be the hardest to
convince, arguing it’s hard to fore-
see these cyclical swings, they of-
ten are caused by nation-wide or
world-wide conditions beyond the
company’s control, to agree to
such a plan is to sign a blank
check.
“No company, however strong
financially, can long afford to pay
for work that is not performed."
the Guaranty Trust Co. of • New
York points out today.
To which labor leaders reply that,
if financially obligated to pay for
part of the time a man is laid off,
management might have more In-
centive to plan steady employment
Labor points to some industries,
now depressed, who over-produced
at a fast rate and new are under
producing while getting over the
binge — but with many of their
employes out of work meanwhile.
Labor contends a little better man-
agement might have prevented
that.’
Another argument for the guaran-
teed annual wage is its tendency to
stabilize wage-earners' purchasing
power, helping the entire economy.
But the Guaranty Trust. In its April
survey, holds this stabilizing effect
is "very uncertain and probably
very limited " It also calls the re.
suit of paying a worker for not
working inflationary.
And the company, in assuming
the cost, would pass that cost on in
higher prices, the bank says.
