The Washington-Merry-Go-Round — Gen. Omar Bradley: ‘Quiet, Gracious, j Gc:3 Natured, Basically a Plain Person’ By DREW PEARSON Doubt About Dulles It isn’t being advertised, but Governor Dewey has received some firm but friendly advice from high-up Republicans to, think twice before he appoints John Foster Dulles as his sec retary of state. The opposition to Dulles is partly on the ground that he is bne of Wall Street’s most prominent lawyers, partly be cause of the disastrous role Dulles played in selling the American public on the now defaulted German bonds prior to 1938 when leading Ameri can economists were warning that they would be worthless paper. One high-up Republican who recently cautioned Dewey about Dulles was Sen. Styles Bridges (Rep., N. H.), chairman of the powerful senate appropriations committee. Bridges raised a new objection, namely Dulles recommendation of Alger Hiss, alleged Communist, to be the chairman of the Carnegie Peace Foundation. The directors of the founda tion, Bridges recalled, were lukewarm about Hiss but were pressured into the appointmenl by Dulles. "Yes. he did make a mis take on that one." admitted Dewey. "And he's made too many mistakes regarding the Nazis. We just can't afford to have a man as secretary of slate who makes mistakes. The problem of peace is too delicate." Bridges also reminded Dewey that Dulles might have diffi -mlty in being confirmed by the senate. “We hope to give you a real majority in the senate in No- j vember," the New Hampshire senator explained. "But we may be darned lucky to keep what we’ve got. If so, and if only two or three Repuublicans oppose Dulles, then the Demo crats will jump in en masse tc fight his confirmation. They’ll love it.” - Dewey countered that For eign Minister Molotov liked Dulles, and that ironing out our Russian problems was all important." "He's the only man in America who can get along with Molotov," Dewey told Bridges. “And, 1 suppose,” quipped Bridges, "that Molotov is a good Republican and wants us to win in November.” * • • In Pcaise of Bradley If war should come to be leaguered Berlin, the men at the top of the U. S. army today are among the most competent, human, and civilian-minded that this newsman has seen around the war department in many a year. This appraisal, by the way. comes from a longtime and vigorous critic of the brass hats. Responsible for this new deal around the Pentagon building are General Eisen hower and his succesesor, modest Omar Bradley. It is important for the Am jrican public to know that kvhen the dare-devil boys o the air forces and the drop the-bomb-now men of the navy gather at joint chiefs of stafi meetings, there is always pres ent one calm conscience who never forgets the 300,000 GIs buried under white crosses from Guadalcanal to Sicily Take off his uniform and Omar Bradley looks like a col lege professor. He is quiet,' gracious, generous, good natur ed and basically a very plain person. Everybody who ever worked with Bradley remarks on his simplicity. His mess ser geant in France had orders never to use Bradley’s name to wrangle food for headquarters. Once during the historic land ing at Normandy, Bradley, then a three-star general, took off his fleece-lined jacket and handed it to a shivering cor poral. "Hece, son," he said. "It will be easier for me to get another than it will be for you." • * • Spunky Mr. Truman Spunky Harry Truman isn’t being discouraged by the Rop er poll which concedes him no chance to win. Talking to the District of Columbia Truman Barkley committee the other day, he declared: ‘•We won't lose this campaign for lack of hard work. I intend to make more public appear ances and wage the mosi strenuous campaign any presi dent has ever attempted. I’m not only going to make radio appeals to the man in the street—I’m going to rub shoul ders with him.’’ His chief worry, the Presi dent confided, was the possi bility of a light vote. "We'll need a heavy vote and I'm going out to get it if I have to punch doorbells," the President said. "If every Democratic pcecinct commit teeman throughout t h e country operate* on that theory, we'll be all right." That even goes fos the Dis trict of Columbia, Truman told his D. C. callers, led by A1 Wheeler, a Washington attor ney. ‘‘Citizens of the District can’t vote, but there’s a big poten tial absentee vote here that could be mighty important,’’ explained the President OUTLAW The Outlaw ALWAYS Feature* Quality Advertised Brand* The Price i* ALWAYS Less ! !
