S. sources it. io signuicant, however, that thz British taid luue. Instead, they sent a very inter citing figure io the United States. 'tie is tsngaaier Meuzie, top Intelligence iJpiia 'at all .tmgiand. Menzie fs head of Ma Ivriusa Military inteiucnce), M6 . (British iv.iutaiy Political Intelligence) and the (Brit ish uussian Intelligence). " ;Since England was a partner in producing .le Atfomb, and since Canada, the third Anner, supplied the uranium, it wouid seem uiui tney were entitled to a snare in the final ieuit. iv'evertnciegs, tne decision to send a t-maa quantity of A-Bomos to England was so ciootiy guarded -that it was known only to aoout six top men in .the USA. In that connection it is signuicant that very few civ ilians, even in the caoinet, know much of the wnereaDouts or numnets of the A-bomb. This was illustrated during a cabinet session short ly beiore Harold lc-Kes retired as Secretary ot the Interior. Ickes, who has a habit of speaking his own mind, said he understood that no civilian in tne Dmie'd btates knew here the A-Bombs were kept. All the bombs, he said, were in the hanas of the military, a situation which re described as dangerous in that it might at the stage whtrcby a group of brass hats quuid take ever the country merely by issu irlg an ultimatum. f becretary qi the Nay Forrestal took ex. cepticn to this, whereupon Ickes asked: bo you know, wh ere the A U Bombs areke y .Viun'otal admitted that he didn t. 'oohn.. you know here the A-Bomb are kept corpunued Ickes, turning to Secretary Patter ?n, the head of the Army. Patterson replied thaT he did not know. Ickes then asked President Truman if he knew here the Atomic Bombs were located. Again the answer was in the negative. NOTE In the opinion of this columnist, ,few military men have civilian welfare more at . heart than General Eisenhower and Ad--rniraj Nimitz, present leaders of the army ;and'Navy forces. Not all the Army-Navy brass irhr.re their views, however, and a civilian '."bofcM will ?oon take over complete control -Missouri Chicken Lays Egg Commodore Jake Vardaman, one of the original Missouri gang whom Truman re "AvaVdcd with a cushy 14 year job on the Fed eral" Keservo board, is now fulfilling some of lhe dire prophesies which his critics made about him. He has been sounding off against -thel'anti-Wall Street- speculation policies of his -chief, Federal Reserve Board Chariman 'Marriner Eccles. Result has been dissension "ion a board which has the delicate job of '.guiding U. S. fiscal policy. Yardamann son of the late Senator Vard aman of Mississippi, moved to Missouri where 'Tie was none too successful in business and plater affixed himself to the Truman entour gkas Naval Attache. In Washington he dis tinguished himself by drafting several enlist ed men to paint and repair his house on government time. Later, when Truman ap- pointed him to the Federal Reserve Board, Vardaman's Navy record mysteriously dis appeared from the files and was not avail able to Senatorial inquires during debate on his confirmation. Now that he has been confirmed by the Senate, Vardaman has been making speeches criticizing the no-speculation "policy of his chief. Eccles has forbidden stock market in vestors to buy on margins. They have to buy stocks outright. Many economists pay tribute to this policy, say it was why the investing public took the recent stock market slump without a financial debacle. Vardaman, however, has been sounding off not only against this no-margin policy but al so against the Federal Reserve Board's re strictions on installment buying. He seems to want to go back to the wildcat days of Her bert Hoover. How long Chairman Eccles will take this from the Mississippi gentleman from Miss ouri remains to be seen. Son of a wealthy Mormon pioneer who had as many wives as he had banks, Eccles is a former Utah bus iness man fid is considered one of the sound est economists of the New Deal. If he gets sore and steps off the reserve board it will be a serious blow to Truman. Capital Chaff Comrade Molotov has told advisers that he favors admitting the press to all sessions of the U. N. General Assembly, even to commit tee meetings. He says the newspapers get par of the story anyway and they might as well get it all at the very start Herber Hoover, who confers frequently with Tom Dewey, takes credit for advising him to increase President Truman's 100,000 refugee figure on Jewish migration. . 'After all," remarked Hoover to a friend, 'Dewey's not., president, he's only governor of New York, and the statement could win him a few thousand votes." He was referring to the fact that Truman praposed the ad mission of 100,000 refugees into Palestine, while Dewey followed him two nights later with a proposal that several hundred thousand be admitted Though we only recently talk ed out of a credit to Russia, the State Depart ment soon will do the levefsa. It will present Russia with a lend-lease bill of four billion dollars in cash. This is about three and a half billions more than we charged the Brit ish. We scaled British Lend-Lease to $50, 00,000, and then loaned them around three billions. Wets Submerge Drya A knockdowndragout fight is shaping up between the wets and drys on the question of local option. First round was fought recently in Wichita County, Texas, which voted to return to the wet column in a local-option referendum. The same county voted dry in 1942. However, with a committee of war vet erans spearheading their campaign, the vets won by a majority of 1,359 out of a total vote of 16,000. It is significant that more votes were cast in this referendum than in any oth er political election in the county's history. Wets are now hailing this as a great vic tory, for Wichita Falls, county seat of Wich ita, Texas, was the largest city in the nation to go dry since repeal. . Next big head-on clash between the wets and drys will be in Chicago, where more than 60 precincts will vote on liquor local option Nov. 5.
