V AT FREE PARKING FOR ALL CUSTOMERS The Political Horizon Some Notes By Leonard A. Willis It is held that the recently attempted measure to "control inflation" was largely a spurious one, and that "voluntary price control" which is a part of the inflation control measure, is inefficient in-efficient and insincere. One writer writ-er held that it was cunningly designed de-signed to take the teeth out of the anti-trust laws. A more serious seri-ous charge against our present national legislators, however, is that the whola purpose in reference refer-ence to control is to delay completion com-pletion of the legislation in the Special Session, until the Regular Regu-lar Session convenes m i8, so as to keep such credit for their legislative prowess as might provide pro-vide future political capital, a-way a-way from the Truman group and in their own camp. When it is remembered that this same Congress is most eager to reduce re-duce the taxes (in places where you and I do not figure) while making talk for inflation control, it will be seen as a queer "angle" that the late F D R. was charged with contributing, through New Deal legislation, to inflation: the record showing that he had asked ask-ed 10.5 billion dollars to block future inflation, and Congress had voted him only 2.1 billion. On this occasion the House Ways and Means Committee was warned warn-ed "If the danger of inflation is not scotched, we will suffer far more than we can possibly suffer suf-fer from any taxes." Already the Republicans are shying away from the General-Eisenhower-for-President idea, and there has now been started a "Stop Ike" drive. While we are yet unconvinced that Ike wishes to run at all, and !t is only an assumption so far that he seeks the Presidential chair, a man as popular as the General still is would be a big drawing card for either of the two main political parties. Even so, the Republicans Re-publicans have already discovered discov-ered something about him they suspect is inharmonious with their supreme councils. A hint of this "something" can perhaps be gleaned from the remark of one of them that "he's just another an-other Willkie." In any case, their sudden objection will arouse some interesting speculations, for we know Ike to be a pretty thoroughgoing sort. Of his own admission he is not a "politician" and we think he meant "politician" "politi-cian" the way most of us do when we say it with a "glint." A Commission on Freedom of the Press has just turned in its report "A Free and Responsible Press." The report promises something new on the much-mooted much-mooted question of press free dom.

Headlines are charged charg-ed with conveying a deliberately misleading concept of the facts. It is further pointed out that sports writers come very much closer to giving the public a genuine picture of what goes on than do news writers. The conclusion con-clusion to be drawn from this difference between these two methods within one newspaper is that there is no point in 'shaping' 'shap-ing' the sports news, but that there is much t be gained by controlling the thinking which affects the "business world." This seems to apply to almost all newspaper writing but sports writing. We still say too much about the desserts of the recipients of our help in the battered and broken parts of the world. It seems we should bear in mind both that it is relatively easy to give orders to the importuning ones, they being completely humbled by their state of Beggary; Beg-gary; and that we are better than they only if and when we can giv properly (or loan, as the case may be). This is a thing we will not accomplish, worlds without with-out end, so long as we retain the tiniest hint of the feeling that we are in any sense superior because be-cause of our greater material possessions. It is a fiction that has possessed many people for many years. But it is dead wrong. Real superiority never puts on an aggressive front. It ought to be a matter of national pride with us that we put and keep the consciousness of material mater-ial greatness, second to the con- S. I. Club at Christmas Party The S. I.
