Saturday Truman accused the ad
ministration of "misrepresentation
and demagoguery." Then In a newa
conference here yesterday he said
the Republican regime has fallen
"100 per cent under the domina
tion of big business."
Truman In his latest attack de
scribed the Securities and Ex
change Commission as "a prime
example" of regulatory commls
alons "packed as never before with
people who came from the ranks
of the Industries they are supposed
to regulate."
He said Republican appointees to
the National Labor Relations
Board have "reversed a number of
settled interpretationa of the law to
the disadvantage of labor.
"The secretary of agriculture."
he aaid. "campaigns against the
programs he is supposed to admin
ister and then uses their failure
to argue that support prices ought
to be lowered."
Truman said he thought the rec
ord would show "that this sane
timonloua administration is having
its own troublea with corruption."
which he aaid was the "deliberate
use of the power of the executive
branch to undermine the laws it
Is sworn to execute 'faithfully so
that their benefits flow to the privi
leged few instead of to all our
citisena.
"One glaring example of this Is
the Dixon-Yates mess," he said.
Turning to what he termed the
"fantastic" Republican campaign
promises of 1952, Truman said:
"Somehow the notion seemed to
have gotten abroad that all. you
had to do to balance the budget
was just to behave nicely If those
wicked Democrats weren't such
terrible spendthrifts, the budget
would really balance Itself. Well,
what happened? We are now in
the third year of the dispensation i He added that the last time there
