The national Republican com mittee met in Indianapolis, re-elected Brownell as chairman, stuck to its 1944 colors and emphasized early ending of the war and making a permanent peace. Governor Dewey in his opening address to the New York legislature urged appropriations and tax es to the amount of over two billions for his state af ter the war, thereby falling in line with national spending of public funds contrary to his denounce ments of such methods during the late campaign against waste and increasing taxes. Contrary to his usual rigid economy methods, he loosened the gates in his state against the pressure of inflation. Other states are likely to follow his lead, and the bulwarks of national stability may be increasingly under mined. The President appoints Henry Wallace, the greatest spendthrift of the New Deal, as secretary of Commerce, and discharges Jesse Jones, a thorough business man from this job, along with other re sponsible financial duties, and we all know what Morganthau can do, or may do, the next four years. With the tendency of the times and the course of pol itics, the solid value of the good old American dollar may go nose diving. We read with interest the switch over of Senator Vandenberg from isolationism to internationalism. It was he and others of his school that destroyed Wendell Willkie, and now from Vandenberg’s seat in the senate enshrouded by the spirit of Willkie, a shining light goes out through the living voicing the dead, and the entire world applauds. The powerful senator from Michigan declares isolationism is dead, and lays down one of the most practical programs for dealing with the world yet declared in that con servative body. Another turnover in recent years is Senator Bob Taft of Ohio. Born of a conservative family, for years old guard conservative himself, he is now rated as the Bill Borah, the great liberal, of the United States senate. The question is how are we, the common people, going to keep up with the changes in the political minds of our leaders? We still have the voice of the nation in public expression, and the voting booth. What we, and the boys when they come home, will have to say, may determine what the leaders will do after the war in more certain terms.
