CABINET CHANGES LONG
EXPECTED IN WASHINGTON
WASHINGTON. - Henry Morgen-
thau’i side of his resignation story
told how he had become irritated
by constantly recurring rumors ot
his Impending departure, that these
were interfering with his work, so
he went to President Truman and
said he would not stay unless he re-
ceived backing.
Mr. Truman offered to deny the
rumors. Mr. Morgcnthau thought
the denial should promise his con-
tinuance in office "at least until Ja-
pan is defeated." The President
seemed to feel this would commit
him too far. Mr. Morgcnthau wrote
out his resignation, although he had
not planned doing so.
The other side of the story im-
plies that many of Mr. Truman's
highest placed associates were
worried about Mr. Morgcnthau
possibly succeeding to the presi-
dency, a position for which he
would be the first to coneede his
unfitness by temperament, ex-
perience or ability.
Little note was taken of the situe
tion, but if anything hnd happened
to Mr. Truman during the few days
interval after he accepted the rcsig
nation of Slate Secretary Stettinius.
and before he appointed James F.
Byrnes to that first cabinet post.
Morgcnthau would have been Presi-
dent. as next in line.
Now Messrs. Trumnn and Byrnes
are going to Berlin for the Big Three
conference (but not together, as a
precaution). Mr. Morgenthau was
still clearly next in line—until his
squeezed resignation placed him in
a position where unquestionably he
would have to decline the office.
This situation may not have wor-
ried Mr. Truman, but associates
working in his interests no doubt
were the authors of what Mr. Mor-
genthau thought to be “irritating ru-
mors."
Around the top of this adminis-
tration Mr. Morgcnthau had been
regarded as a man with good New
York banking connections, but ex-
pendable. Now he will continue at
the treasury until probably August
15 when his successor, Fred M. Vin-
son. will take over.
As a matter of full truth, Mr.
Morgenthau was slated to go any
way when his Bretton Woods
plan, cleared congress and the
war loan drive wound up. Thrre
was no logical excuse for him to
, continue to delay fulfillment of
the custom, permitting a Presi-
dent to ehouse his own cabinet
without the slightest embarrass-
ment.
Indeed, this column was able tu
lead off, in newspapers last May 24:
"A complete cabinet shakedown is
coming. State and treasury will
surely be involved in addition to ag-
riculture, justice and labor."
Both angles of that forecast now
have been fulfilled.
I am therefore inclined to believe
both sides of the story, Mr. Morgen-
thau’s and the untold one that Mr.
Truman's friends, knowing well the
personalities involved, nettled Mr.
Morgenthau into making the break.
BYRNES APPOINTMENT TO
ADD STRENGTH TO CABINET
Behind the two great publicized
events of foreign affairs—the sub-
mission of the charter for the new
world and the advent of James F.
Byrnes as state secretary—the mills
of history are grinding new and
greater portents.
Mr. Byrnes is a canny dealer.
Up to now our foreign policy
methods have not been sensa-
tionally bountiful. Some doubt
is evident In many quarters that
we have learned how to deal
evenly with the Russians.
It is thus as much in her interest
as of any other nation. Otherwise
our viewpoint has hot won out too
many times—not in the matter of
Poland, Latvia, Esthonla, Lithuania,
Turkey, the Middle East, declara-
tion of war on Japan, and so on
down the proble/n list.
Now we are going to Berlin for
the next conference. We have been
unable to bring Stalin halfway in the
geographical matter of meeting
places or in any other considera-
tion. Our dealing with the Soviet is
elearly not yet on a successful
plane.
Another way of putting it—and the
Administration no doubt would put it
this way—we have sacrificed every-
thing else in diplomacy in order to
get the charter. Now we have it,
we must start making other matters
add up better.
This Is where Mr. Byrnes comes
in. These are the considerations be-
hind his appointment. Foreign af-
fairs is the one subject his spectac-
ular career has not closely touched.
He is not, therefore, especially expe-
rienced—but he has seldom been
traded down in any line.
Simultaneously, Mr. Truman, in
an extemporaneous speech at Kan-
sas City, projected a line for the
charter far beyond its text, although
no one seemed to notice it. He said
the world Is no longer county, state
or national size, "but is one world,
as Willkie said."

1 \ON'T spoil your life
I 1 longing for something
*—just because someone
else has it. This is a real fault
in American women, partly
because they have so much,
and because their leisure time
lets them think about their
neighbors.
If life was a little more real for
us, if grim necessity more often
knocked at our doors, we would be
cured of this weakness. The women
of the Orient don't know it at all.
They drive straight ahead, each one
planning and working for the com-
fort and protection of her own little
group, not embittered by the fact
that luxury and leisure and all the
prettiness of life are denied her for-
ever.
But the days of many an Amerl-
can woman are darkened by con-
stant watching and comparing her
neighbor's fortunes to her own. She
doesn't appreciate at all what she
has—all that matters is that the
Browns have more.
was
For example, I once knew
woman named Sally. She
healthy, beloved, a happy wife and
mother. I met her when she had her
three small children at the seaside.
She and I had rented neighboring
cottages for a fortnight’s vacation.
We were within a block of the shore
and all the wild delights of child-
hood — merry - go - rounds, dodge-
ems. popcorn, slides, whirls, mu-
seums and sandy beach—were close
at hand. Nobody could call it an
aristocraUc resort, but it was in-
expensive, joyous and wholesome as
only the shore can be.
Craved for Luxury Resort.
However, to Sally, the blight was
that she had a friend who had taken
her child to Tahoe—remote, refined
and, in spots, very dull. But Tahoe
is fashionable and Santa Cruz is not,
and Sally kept comparing the two
places until her vacation was
ruined by fretting and discontent.
If Sally had been a child, how
simple it would have been to say
'Now, not another word about Tahoe
or what Nancy is doing. If I hear
any more of this nonsense, Miss, you
go straight to bed!"
But Sally isn't a child, so we
had to put up with it She never saw
the beauty of the rolling waves or
the brilliance of the happy crowd
soldiers and sailors and their
girls streaming np and down the
boardwalk. She never smiled when
everyone was in the glorious salty
surf, clinging to life lines, lying wet
and breathless on the float. She
didn’t brighten when we gathered
for a delicious hot breakfast in
the coffee shop or took hamburgers
and buns down on the beach. Not
Sally! Nancy was at Tahoe, where
everything was elegant and expen-
sive, so there was no pleasure for
Sally anywhere else.
Nancy, as it happens, came back
with a bad case of hay fever and
her little girl was sent off to camp,
but that didn't Interest Sally. She
continued to remark frequently that
she wished the holiday was over.
Ninety-nine women out of every
hundred in the world would have
thought her crazy. Some would have
wondered why she wasn’t struck
dead for ingratitude, stupidity and
blindness.
Had Almost Everything.
For if there are 100 good things for
a woman of 30 in this world, Sally
surely had 98 of them. Sally had
ENVY AND DISCONTENT
Foolishly longing for uhat
others have blights the lives of
ninny n-omen. That yearning
to "keep up with the Joneses”
makes life miserable for wom-
en who have all the essentials
for happiness. If they could
only curb their childish envy
of other people who may be a
little richer, or more fortunate
in some other way, they could
be much happier.
Sally was one of these silly,
discontented women. She had
health, beauty, a loving hus-
band, three children, and a
middle-class family income.
But these blessings were in-
sufficient for Sally. Her friend
Nancy could afford to go to an
ensiveandexclwirveresoTT,
for instance. Sally had to go
to an ordinary seaside cottage
colony. The only difference,
as far as pleasure was con-
cerned, was the social ranking
of the two places. This dis-
tinction. nevertheless, bored
into Sally’s spirit and spoiled
her vacation.
Miss Norris com pares the. lot
of the average American wom-
an with that of the European
or Asiatic woman, for whom
life is a constant struggle just
to maintain existence in a war-
torn world. How trivial would
most of the American woman’s
difficulties appear in such a
setting!
WASHINGTON QUIETEST
IN YEARS

itighbort. ... ____
health, youth, beauty, love, protec-
tion and plenty; she had a home,
car, water, heat, clothes, food,
pleasures, leisure, radio, telephone,
gas stove, electric light. Sally had
wifehood and motherhood, compan-
ionship, responsibility, a keen mind,
an active body, bright eyes, good
hearing, strong legs and clever fin
gers.
She had, even in this rented cot-
tage, a comfortable bed and good
books to read; she had white sheets
and fresh blankets; she had a strip
of garden, the sight of great trees,
the nearness of that eternal miracle
of healing, the sea, and that other
miracle to which men have turned
since the earliest days of Biblical
history—the great line of rising dark
mountains. But it is ridiculous to at-
tempt to list what she had and it
would be tragic to compare it, de-
tail by detail, with the bitter need
that millions of women overseas
are facing.
These women, frightened, desti-
tute and desperate, have traveled
dusty roads looking only for water
first, rest and then perhaps a little
dark bread and a few boiled turnips
or cabbages. They have reassured
terrified children, promised them se-
curity, shelter, milk and food, only
to have the little feet falter, the lit-
tle hearts break and the children
lie down beside the road to rest, not
even rating a grave. They have
known that their men were gone for-
ever and with them all the dear
old life of home, garden, kitchen,
familiar stove and beds and home
treasures—never to be found again.
One week with them might turn
the mirror around for Sally and let
her see not what she hasn’t but
what she has:
Handle Strawberries Carefully
Strawberries are scarce, so if you
are lucky enough to have some on
your menu, handle them with care.
Do not wash them until ready to
serve. Water clinging to the ber-
ries starts unnecessary spoilage.
If you hull berries a long time be-
fore using, they may soften. If the
strawberries must be held over-
night, spread them on a flat plate
and store uncovered in the refrig-
erator. Don't hesitate to can the ber-
ries, though, even though sugar is
scarce. Can without it if necessary.
The District of Columbia looks
more like a peacetime capital this
summer than in many years. . . .
For the first time since the war, the
house is now planning a long recess.
. . . This reflects increased congres-
sional confidence in the new White
House set-up, also the fact that
many a legislator yearns for home.
. . . The dollar-a-year men and
brass hats who planned to check out
after Germany's defeat haven't
started their exodus. Instead they’ve
been joined by hundreds of business
men who've moved in to get their
reconversion headaches unsnarled.
. . . Thousands of returning officers
and enlisted men from Europe have
added to the housing and feeding
problem. Parking spaces along the
Potomac are crowded on hot nights
with G.I. Joes and G.I. Janes and
government workers searching for a
coo! breeze. Washington is more
peaceful, but still jammed.
Adding to the crush are the Tru-
man boys who have descended on
Washington. , . . They fall into three
categories: (1) The Missouri boys,
friends of Truman and Bob Hanne-
gan looking for jobs, patronage, and
juicy political plums. . . (2) The
Pauley boys from Southern Califor-
nia—friends of former Democratic
Treasurer Ed Pauley who've rushed
into town to climb on the gravy
train. They're brash and crude for
the most part, have little respect for
the taxpayers' money, and alreaoy
have their eyes on the gilded dome
of the capitol. . . . Third group are
the "Battery K" men. These are the
World War I vets who saw service
with Harry Truman in 1917 and 1918.
Most are satisfied with a brief
"hello" and a handshake from their
hero. Others cling to the wrought
iron gates of the White House, think
that their comradeship with the new
chief executive is a guarantee of a
soft government job.
Truman Heyday
Truman's own aides in the
White House are still Impressed
by their new surroundings. . . .
Some feel that Truman's rise
gives them a blank check to
____USE_bJs_.-PO.wer..for their own
ends. . . . One youthful aid* has
been bragging about having Tru-
man's political enemies shad-
owed, their wires tapped. . . .
Truman, a sworn enemy of
wire-tapping when in the senate,
will probably clip their wings
soon. . . . Most powerful man
in the Truman entourage is
chubby, cigar-smoking Brig.
Gen. Harry Vaughan, one of the
"Battery K" boys, who buzzes
considerable advice into his
chief's ear, but now finds it
being accepted with less fre-
quency. . . . The hangers-on
are still having a field day
around the White House.

‘CENTRAL, GIMME
FLIVVER 6-828! ’
The auto to auto telephone is near
at hand. The American Telephone
and Telegraph company announces
that it will soon be in operation to-
gether with house to ear and office
to car phone talks.
From the walky-talky we progress
to the cabby-gabby.
After the war, possibly before, an
automobile will have a telephone
number. The wife will put in a call
from the house and a buzzer on the
dashboard will buzz.
Presto! The Butomobile becomes
part car. part house, part office and
part phone booth!
But if the boss can get you by
phone that way it marks the end
of the automobile as a pleasure ve-
hicle.
One of the chief charms of an auto
has always been that you could get
away from it all. No matter what
might happen, nobody could get you
on the phone and, after you had
pulled over into a sidestreet, say—
"Sorry, I guess 1 have the wrong
number."
_*
Center of administration power
has partly shifted from the White
House to the second floor of the May
flower hotel, where Bob Hannegan
holds forth in Democratic headquar-
ters. . . . Judge Welburn Mayock,
tile committee's new genera) coun
sel, uses the office to lobby for Cali-
fornia oil interests. . . , George Kil-
liom, the new treasurer of the na-
tional committee, who has been
using a meat-ax to collect money
for the committee from business
men may find himself chopped down
soon. . . . One ardent Democratic
supporter of many years’ standing
hearing about Killiom's tactics,
said, ‘He'll collect so much money
we’ll lose in '48. Everyone he taps
for $5,000 will feel like contribut-
ing twice as much to the Republi-
cans to boot the Pauley crowd out."
Meanwhile little is happening to set
the stage for Democratic victories
in the congressional elections next
year. . . . Hannegan is already in
hot water with labor, particularly
the CIO, which he has been studi-
ously Ignoring. Labor leaders, who
poured out millions to help Roose-
velt last year, claim they can’t even
get a glass of water from the Demo-
crats when it comis to bucking op-
pressive legislation in congress, and
are now making threats to move
over to the GOP camp.
Republicans Harmonious.
Farther up Connecticut avenue at
Republican headquarters things are
harmonious. . . . The Republicans
are sitting bark, are quietly laying
the groundwork for a high-powered
congressional race next November.
. What they need most of all
are some issues. . . . GOPsters, in-
cluding Chairman Herbert Brown-
ell, are confident they'll find plenty
in a few months, are hoping that
Truman stubs a few toes politically
soon. . . . Republican Chairman
Brownell has a million dollars to
spend on the elections. . . .
Truman's cabinet changes thus
far have been extremely popular.
. Tall, scholarly new Labor Sec-
retary Schwellenbach has made
scores of friends for his department,
has infused new life among its
weary employees, has made an A-l
impression on congress. . . .
Ex-Congressman Clint Anderson
