c It about time to chalk up another victory for public opinion—this time on foreign policy For public opinion seems to have been influential in the shift from the "Truman doctrine" to the "Marshall program" which certainly represents a change of approach The metamorphosis is interesting and significant and is best explained by an analysis of each and the cirdumstances surrounding them1 and the public reaction Going back to the beginning the first hint of the "Truman doctrine" came in word from London that Great Britain was going to have to abandon her Greek outpost because of the expense involved and that we would replace her in that exBalkan area It emerged plosive n with President Truman's dramatic appearance before congress as a program of assistance to both Greece and Turkey It was presented as part of a design to help all other nations threatened by communism to resist its encroachment with the anticommunism thesis heavily emphasized Urgency was underlined haste de- LP last of January 1915 The following week Senator Jones of Washington discussed the same measure for 13 hours and 55 minutes However the record for a filibuster conducted by a lone senator without interruption was made by Senator Huey Long of Louisiana on the 12th and 13th of June 1935 when he spoke for 15 hours and 35 minutes on the national industry recovery extension act These are some of the most remarkable instances of tolerance by the senate which often threatens "cloture" but never invokes it Only of the impatient listeners to a vocal endurance contender would be required to stop the performance but no proposal has ever commanded as much as a bare majority Almost every senator is loath to see cloture applied—not knowing when he might want to avail himself of the privilege of unlimited debate Filibustering is an unfair infliction that tortures friends and foes alike wanton waste of precious time not alone that of the speaker but of his colleagues a childish demonstration that makes the senate appear ridic ulous before the world Neither Senator Taylor nor Senator Morse did the cause of labor any good—the margin increased while they were talking I Marshall Program Unifies Public on Foreign Policy -
