Crowd Fury WALLACE: Pure Hate Henry Wallace claimed that his expansive love for his fellow men had not been diminished by his experiences in the South, but it stood as a fact that the ramparts of that abiding affection must have undergone a severe test. As the Progressive partys presidential candidate Wallace had gallantly penetrated into the southern states to bring them his brand of enlightenment. But the crusader was not appreciated.

Kitchen Helper GREEK CRISIS: Relieved Double Duty! Few U. S. forays into the field aid have been so and excoriated condemned widely Truman doctrine as the for economic help to Greece and Turkey. Almost since its inception the "Truman doctrine has been denounced as a fraud, a farce and a flop. Much of the denunciation, however, seemed to be based on opinion rather than fact. Actually, for a long time it was almost impossible to assess the condition of the Greek aid program. Now the government has come out with a report to congress that states bluntly that American military and economic aid has removed the danger of Greece falling to communism. While not all the problems in Greece are solved, the crisis of 18 months ago has been averted," one official said. The aid program in Greece is over the hump. The report, submitted by President Trumaij and covering the first year of American efforts to keep Greece free, embodied virtually the first optimism anyone has expressed regarding the picture in Greece. So far does this optimism extend that Greece now is accepted ofin ficially as the bright spot American attempts to help other nations resist the onslaughts of communism. In Asia and other European countries the battle is not considered won. Government emphasis, of course, is on the fact that the task in Greece still is not done. Between 15,000 and 17,000 Greek guerrillas remain at large despite recent successes by government forces. And guerrilla action may continue for several years, depending on the amount of aid received by the rebels from Albania, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia. Briefly, the official success story of the Greek effort claims that the nations wild inflation has been resisted, the cost of living is dropping, about 1,000 miles of key roads have been reconstructed and the vital Corinth canal is open to traffic. of international Love in Bloom? British tongues and heartstrings are vibrating with rumors of a romantic association (thats what it is when royalty is involved) between Princess Margaret Rose, youngest daughter of the king and queen' and the marquis of Bland-for- d, a fair-haire- d yung noble- man. Her parents have yet to pass judgment on him, however, DEATH CAME: Charles E. Hughes Regally bearded Charles Evans Hughes came within a whisker of being elected the 27th President of tlie United States in 1916. At that time he was a crusty, unbending, academic man, and it was probably because of that temperament that he lost the presidential race to Woodrow Wilson in one of the closest elections in history 277 electoral votes to 254. California's vote was the deciding factor in the final result and Hughes lost that when he incensed the California governor by failing to visit him while on a tour of the state. But Charles E. Hughes was, nevertheless, as near to being a great man as most people ever get. And he mellowed with time. He was the only American ever to be appointed twice to the U. S. once in 1910 and supreme court again in 1930 when he returned to preside as chief justice. He was twice governor of New York, his native state, resigning the position during his second term to become a supreme court associate justice. In July, 1941, he retired from the supreme bench to withdraw into private life. Between that time and August of this year he made only one public appearance to attend the funeral services of Harlan Fiske Stone, another chief justice, in April, 1946. . Late last month Charles Evans Hughes, 86 years old, died of con gestive heart failure.
