Egyptians Choose
Three Regenis
Cairo 0I.R) The Egyptian
government chose a three-man
regency council last Saturday
night to reign on behalf of in
fant King Ahmed Fad II at least
until November.
The council included one rep
resentative each of Egypt's royal
ty, the amy, and politics. They
were:
Prince Mohammed Abd El
Moneim. second Prince of tbfe
Realm. Mohammed Aly, the only
Royal Prince who ranks higher
than Abd El Moneim, is 70 years
old and in poor health.
CaL Rashad Mehanna, a lead
ing member of the military jun
ta that seized power July 23. Me-
fcanna had been serving as com'
mimications minister, and he
mill he replaced in that capacity
by social affairs minister Zoheir
Garrana.
Bahi El Din Barakat, a politi
cal independent who has servea
as a cabinet minister and who
was mentioned as a possible pre
mier when Hussem Sirry gave
iir tho nnst. in mid-July.
Prince Mohammed is now in
Switzerland, and the council
probably will not be sworn m

much as she pleases, and
THE near cloud-burst and smashing hail storm un-

the worst within the memory of this writer, covering
some 38 years. It built up to

after the situation became well developed. Aerial
seeding of such a mass of thunderheads would have
been like trying to stop a

ISSISSIPPI like Alabama, South Carolina, and
Georgia used the Democratic label and ballot
designation m 1948 to choose electors who cast their
votes for the Dixiecrat ticket. By not voting for the
national Democratic candidate in 1948, Mississippi
Democrats lost the four-vote premium normally
awarded Democratic states, and their delegation to
the 1952 Chicago convention was pared from 22 to 18.
As the result of the 1950 census, Mississippi also loses
one electoral vote this year.
No matter how dissatisfied Mississippi Democrats
may be with the platform
expected to vote for the candidates, awarded the offic

garnered 167,538 Mississippi votes, to 19,384 for

Matter of Fact
DID HE CONNIVE?
Washington "No man could
be nominated, wise old Sen.
Arthur Vandenberg used to say,
when he himself was being pro
moted for the Republican nom
ination in 1948, "without con
niving." He meant, of course,
that no man can get his party
nod without some sort of prior
commitment to his party's key
chieftain. The Vandenberg rule
held true in his own case, as it
almost always had before.
Did Gov. Adlai Stevenson of
Illinois, "connive" in order to
get the Democratic nomination?
This seems a good time to ask
this question. A good many
people are saying that Stevenson
won the nomination in a partic
ularly wily maneuver, and a
good many more people are like
ly to say so before the presi
dential campaign ends. Sen. Paul
Douglas, for example, has pic
tured the Stevenson draft as an
exercise in "planned spontan
eity" and Republican national
committee chairman Arthur
Summerfield charges that Stev
enson is the "hand - picked" can
didate of President Truman. In
short, the Stevenson draft was
supposedly put over, with Stev
enson's knowledge, consent and
secret cooperation, by Truman
and a handful of powerful pro
fessionals. In fact, this is so far from the
truth that both Truman and the
professionals, like Col. Jacob
Arvy of Illinois, actually gave
up on Stevenson before the con
vention was called to order.
Tremendous pressure was
brought to bear on Stevenson by
these men, not to become an ac
tive candidate, but simply to
pass the word that he would run
if nominated.
ALMOST tearfully, Arvey
pleaded with Stevenson to al
low him to pass this word. When

Arvey's efforts were unavailing,
Truman dispatched Democratic
Chairman Frank McKinney to
Illinois to try again. Various
other leaders, like Gov. Paul
Dever of Massachusetts and May
or David Lawrence of Pitts
burgh, also tried to get Steven
son to make this simple com
mitment. And finally, shortly
before the convention, Samuel
Cardinal Stritch of Chicago saw
Stevenson in order to assure him
that his divorce was no bar to
his candidacy.
All this effort was absolutely
unavailing. As a result, Truman
and the key leaders like Arvey
reasoned with plenty of his
torical precedence that no
convention was going to nomin
ate a man who might turn the
nomination down. Truman there
fore let it be known that Vice
President Alben Barkley was
"acceptable" to him. Arvey,
Lawrence, and the other leaders
also turned to Barkley. Arvey
even telephoned Barkley in Ken
tucky a few days before the con
vention, to promise the Vice
President his support.
The plain fact is that Truman
and the "bosses" who are sup
posed to have maneuvered the
Stevenson draft were them
selves caught flatfooted when it
became clear that the conven
tion wanted Stevenson and no
body else. In effect, the profes
sionals simply rushed to the
head of the Stevenson parade
which was already forming, and
began frantically waving their
banners.
The only shadow of substance
in the charge that Stevenson
"connived" lies in the fact that
he could have taken himself
straight out, and that he never
did so. In fact, he came very
near to doing so on at least
three occasions. The first time
was just after President Tru
man's withdrawal, when Stev
enson wrote out in longhand his
own version of Gen. Sherman's
famous statement. He was only
barely prevailed upon to keep it
locked in his desk.
a
OTOE SECOND time was short
ly before the Republican con
vention, when W. Averell Har
riman's manager, Franklin D.
Roosevelt Jr., almost persuaded
Stevenson to issue the withdraw
al statement, and throw his
whole weight behind his old
friend Harriman. And the third
time was on the second day of
the convention, after the Illin
ois delegation had infuriated him
by defying his express wish not
to support his nomination. Stev
enson telephoned Roosevelt and
seriously discussed taking hinv
self out even then.
The first two times, Steven
son's friends dissuaded him on
the grounds that his withdraw
al would strengthen Robert A.
Taft. The third time, Stevenson
was persuaded that his with
drawal would help, not Harri
man,. but Sen. Estes Kefauver,
whom Stevenson did not want to
see nominated. Yet these were
really only surface reasons for
Stevenson's failure to take him
self right out.
Stevenson is, after all, a pol
itician, and although he did not
want the nomination this year,
he is by no means an unambit
ious politician. He knew, that a
politician signs his own death
warrant when he flatly refuses
to accept his party's nomination,
and Stevenson had no political
death wish. This is the real rea
son, one strongly suspects, why
he never made public his hand
written Sherman statement.
In short, Stevenson did not
want to be drafted, and he did
everything possible, short of
political suicide, to prevent a
draft. But he was shrewd
enough to know that he might
be drafted anyway, and in this
case he wanted to be nominated
on his own terms an "honest
draft," with no strings tied.
Stevenson got the nomination he
did not want on precisely the
terms he did want no mean
achievement. But certainly the
answer to the question "did he
connive?" is an emphatic "no."

I suppose you've read in the
papers or heard on the radio this
Russian propaganda tale about
the way we Americans run elec
tions in Tennessee. It's a lulu. I
like especially the Moscow-painted
picture of the bossman sher
iff and his family.
He sits at one table dealing out
FILLED-IN ballots with one
hand and dollar bills with the
other. Another table is held
down by his wife and the rest of
the family, all heavily festooned
with six-shooters. Their job is
to check the ballots to see that
no low-down trash sell their
votes and then renege.
If they catch a guy trying that,
it's BANG and the sexton has
another job digging a hole.
fTHE WAY it comes over the
Moscow radio it's funnier
than a crutch.
But it has a serious side.
IT COULD BE THAT WAY
SOMEDAY, even here in free
America, IF WE PERMIT TOO
MUCH POWER TO REMAIN IN
TOO FEW HANDS TOO LONG.
I
T'S THAT WAY in Russia now.
It GOT that way because in
Russia too much power has been
permitted to remain in too few
hands too long.

Eisenhower CAMPAIGN
LEADERS gather in Denver for

ences. DON'T LET 'em load you up
with a lot of fancy "strat
egy," Ike. We voters are fed up
with that stuff. All we want in
this year of decision is a leader
we can BELIEVE and TRUST.
We think you're that kind of
man and we have faith that if
elected President you'U sur
round yourself with that kind of
men. That will be good enough.
Just go on being yourself and
don't let anybody clutter you up
with a lit of outworn ballyhoo.
IKE himself, speaking in Den
ver, says he wants the GOP
campaign to give as much em
phasis to the CONGRESSIONAL
RACES as to his bid for the
Presidency.
Paste that in your hat.
If Ike is elected President, he
will APPOINT his administra
tive assistants, from members of
his cabinet on down." But (thank
the Lord, this being America) he
can't appoint the members of
Congress.
They must be ELECTED.
You and I and tens of millions
of other Americans will have to
do that job because under our
system nobody else can do it.
If we elect Ike, let's at the
same time elect a Congress that
he can WORK WITH.
T SUPPOSE you read that
-1- thrilling mystery tale the oth
er day about a supposed spy
parachuting down from a plane
into the super-secret Hanford
atomic works up in the state of
Washington.
It seems to have been a dud.
What happened, apparently, was
that a piece of building paper,
about the .size of a man, was
caught up by a whirlwind and
carried aloft. Since what goes up
must come down, it came down
and somebody saw it and jump
ed to conclusions.
A LOT of our fears, both for
the nresent and for the fu
ture. arise out of the unfortunate
fact that so many of us see so
many things that DON'T HAP
PEN and know so many things
that "am t so."
rpHIS IS from Salem:
"A forgotten 88-year-old law
(enacted in 1864) is being dusted
off for use against an Oregon
convict accused of knifing a
guard a couple of days ago. The
old law provides the death pen
alty for an attack on a guard
with a deadly weapon. It is un
usual in that it doesn'tgive the
jury a choice whether or not to
inflict the death penalty. The
death sentence is mandatory."
The guard who was knifed suf
fered only a minor hand cut.
IF YOU CAN SEE an Oregon
jury sentencing a 'convict to
death for gashing a guard's hand,
you can see things L can't see.
I'd say a law like that is like
a lot of the old stuff most of us
keep around in our attics. It may
have been all right in 1864, but
it isn't any good now. We'd bet
ter get rid of it just as most
of us would better get rid of the
old stuff in our attics.

Chicago (U.R) About 4,000
members of the ClO-United Auto
Workers went on strike at the
International Harvester- Tractor
works at suburban Melrose Park
Monday after a breakdown of
negotiations on revised job
standards. .
The plant, idle for four weeks
because, of the steel shortage,
had been scheduled to resume
production Monday.
Picket lines were thrown
around the plant at 5 a.m. CST.
The main issue, according to a

On The Side
(Distributed by King
At this time of the year my
thoughts frequently turn to the
career of Arthur Brisbane. That
is, I think of the time the great
editor and columnist wrote 30
columns in advance. Consider
that, my friends, 30 columns
filed and no columns to write
for a month. As some fellows
dream of what they would do
if they made a million dollars.
I dream of what I would do if
I had written 30 columns in ad
vance. Right now I think if that
were my extremely happy situa
tion I would immediately push
off for Del Mar, Calif., where the
turf meets the surf. At Del Mar
is the cosiest little race course
in the United States of America.
It is a place where relaxation
reigns and contentment rules.
Even the horses are influenced
by the atmosphere. They prance
to the post in a gay mood. Or
so it seems. Maybe I could start
saving up extra columns and by
this time next year have 30 in
advance and spend the month
of August being swept by ocean
breezes where the turf meets
the surf at old Del Mar.
As It Was
During the Capone era in Chi
cago there was a gangster known
as "Golf Bag Sam" Hunt. Nick
name was inspired by the fact
that Hunt carried a machine gun
in a golf bag. He wanted to be
different. Most of the other
gangsters were carrying their
machine guns in violin cases.
Snoring Husbands
Harassed wives of snoring
husbands continue to ask this
department for a solution of their
sleepless situation. At present
there is no' known cure for snor
ing. All I can continue to suggest
is that the wife use ear plugs or
arrange to sleep in a separate
room.
Favorite Meal
Who was it that said: "Tell me
what you eat and 111 tell you
what you are?" Anyway, the
favorite meal of Vice President
Alben W. Barkley according to
his charming wife is as follows:
turnip greens, corn bread, chest
nut pie and country ham.
Asking
Queries from clients. Q If
Cleopatra was not a redhead as
you stubbornly insist why is she
always portrayed as such in
stage and screen plays? A Cleo
patra was a Greek and originally
a brunette. Later in life she wore
a red wig. She has not always
been portrayed on the stage as
a redhead. In a stage production
of Shaw's "Caesar and Cleopat
ra," Lili Palmer played Cleo as
a brunette. Q You apparently
read the Frank Merriwell stories
when a. boy. Many famous men
say these stories had an influence
on their after life. How about
you? A I never went for Frank
Merriwell as a hero. Nor did
most of the kids on our block
in southern Brooklyn. We just
couldn't go for that stuff about
Merriwell pitching a curve called
the double inshoot and some of
his other extraordinary athletic
feats.
