Harry Ready
To Retire
WASHINGTON President
Truman was described by trU-
males Saturday as ready to retire
politically. They said he has no
desire to be anything more than a
consultant to his party In the fu
ture. The Informant suggested that
Truman will assume in some re
snects Ihe role of elder statesman
of the Democratic party, somewhat
as Herbert Hoover did with the
Republicans. That would leave to
Gov. Adlai Stevenson, as the new
titular leader 0 the party, the di
rection of the Democratic organ
ization in Its new role of the mi
nority opposition.
As Stevenson, the defeated presi
dential candidate, met in Spring
field. 111., Saturday with party
aides to discuss future operations
of the national committee, the 68-year-old
retiring chief executive
was reported to have told recent
callers that he expects to remain
active but only In a consultative
capacity.
Presidential aides say the same
sentiment Was reflected1 In the
President's poM-elcctlon statement
asking the people to close ranks
In the interest of national welfare.
In that Nov. 6 statement the Presi
dent referred to Stevenson as the
party's "great new leader who will

a friend at the Atomic Energy
