Stephens Ph. 1023-J Platform of Progressives Deludes Wallace's Misguided Followers By PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent PHILADELPHIA Anyone required to sum up, In one sentence, the Henry Wallace Progressive Party convention could only throw up his hands In despair and say It was the damdest thing that ever happened. There hasn't been anything like It In American politics since 1936. when the Townsendltes and Coughllnltes met In Cleve land to express their forlorn hopes. The Wallace convention beat all that, with camp-meeting re vival singing by Brooklyn hill billies; with Wallace's fantastic press conference In which the working reporters kept their mouths shut and the bleeding heart crusaders took over and beat their breasts all over the place; with the barber-shop wail ing of vice-presidential candlr date Glen Taylor and family. Perhaps the most characteris tic performance of the whole convention was a five-minute speech by one Frank Danowskl, president of the Plymouth local of United Auto Workers, CIO, and secretary of the Polish-Americans for Wallace. Old Parties Should Heed Danowskl called America a combination of cultures blended In one large home. "There are stresses and strains in the home," he said, "and the Hunkeys, the Spicks, the Guineas and the Ginks are looked down on by the rest of the farrdly." Danowskl might also have mentioned other minority groups with unpleasant nicknames. They were all represented at Philadelphia. Polite newspapers used to avoid mentioning them by name, for fear of offending them, but now. In Henry Wal lace's party, they have taken on political consciousness and they dare stand up and express themselves. Hera were some of their words: "I have seen hospital doors closed against my dying son," said Shirley Graham, Negro writer and mother. "Wallace Is the only one of the three candidates who was ever a successful businessman," said Miles Pennybacker, Nor walk. Conn., secretary of the New Council for American Busi ness. ' "I am a mother, a housewife, and a very angry woman," laid Mrs. Katherlne Van Oyen of New Jersey, complaining of high prices. "We are tired of Klansmen who ride in the night.

By DeWITT MacKENZlE AP Foreign Affairs Analyst For close to 150 years idealistic statesmen have dreamed of and labored for a United States of Europe, but Ironically enough It hat taken the frightful menace of Communism to start this vision on Its way to partial materialization.

These are the things that the leaders of the two old parties should hear and do something about. As for what the leaders of the new party are going to do about them, there is some room for doubt. They bragged that their new party convention had no smoke-tilled rooms. O.lu.lon and Snare All such talk is the same old political baloney. There never was a political convention in which the program was so stage i managed, the candidates so hand- Clcked, the platform so dictated y special Interests, j In summary, the poor, under- Firlvileged Americans who usual y take something of a beating In climbing up the ladder, may have been sold a bill of goods by the left-wing elements of the new party. Proof of this shows up In the Progressive Party Platform. The first section of this platform deals with "peace." It calls for an end to American preparedness, abolition of the Marshall Plan, a complete surrender to the foreign policy objectives of So viet Russia. The few old-time liberals like Rex Tugwell, Scott Buchanan of St. John's, Freder ick L. Schuman of Williams and others who tried to write a more balanced foreign policy i planK were beaten down, i As for the domestic policy Dlanks dealing with "freedom" and "abundance." they merely promise everything to everybody and never mina tne cost, it is ! Just another political document I not worth the paper it is writ ten on. It is a delusion and a snare In which the poor mis guided followers of Henry . Wal lace are being taken for tide by promises which can never be fullfllled this side of Paradise. Qualifying Golf Rounds for Title To End Saturday Qualifying rounds for the club championship president's cup. win end Saturday nignt at tne Roseburg Country Club with the spring handicap trophy dinner and annual Calcutta as con cluding features.

L Hall mark, with a score of 38, and low net of 33 by Pete Pear-on. The "Wind bogev" stag tourna ment Wednesday evening was participated In by 36 men. Walter Fisher had low gross witt. a 37. Al McBee won long drive and Walter Bridges close to the pin. of fate, but maybe Its not so strange after all. Atheists turn to prayer In extremities, and men of many minds band together for mutual defense in time of danger. Anyway, Western Eu rope has started a swing towards a confederation of democracies which are making concessions in sovereignty for the common wel fare. We were given two further notable Indications of this trend yesterday. Italy's free thinking, outspoken foreign minister, the 72-year-old Count Carlo Sforza, stated that In order to enect a European union his country is ready to take the lead in accept ing "curtailment of its political sovereignty, even In the most unexpected aspects." About the same time French Foreign Min ister Paul Reynaud said he hoped Britain would come out In full support of a United States of Europe next autumn, after the dominions conference in London. There is no indication of whether these two statements were coincidental or concerted. It would be Interesting to know. In any event, they aim at the same objective. Nueltua Alr.ady Formed Of course these pronounce ments aren't the first positive developments along this line. There was the kensationai lorma tlon of the flve-naflon Western European union some five months ago, when Britain, France, Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg formed an alliance which was hailed 'by many ob servers as giving a decided fillip to the idea of a union for the whole of Western Europe, and received the blessings of the United States. This Western European com bine neatly complemented the union of 16 European countries which had banned together in support of the Marshall Plan. Indeed, time may demonstrate that America's Euro peon recov ery project provided the nucleous for a United States of Western Europe and perhaps finally of all Europe In the. happy days when Communism has had its run and the continent has re turned to freedom. One also cannot stop without recalling that England's famous Winston Churchill long has. been going up and down the land, lending his powerful voice to the idea of a United States of Europe. Heart Attack Fatal To Navy Officer Playing Golf PEARL HARBOR. Aug. Capt. Lloyd D. Follmer. com mander of the submarine base at Pearl Harbor, died of a heart attack while playing golf yester day.
