In the three months since Congress adjourned there have been certain developments in the Republican situation so far as the presidential nomination is concerned, out none have material- changed the prospect. Many things can transpire in the eight months before the convention meets. Nevertheless, nine times out of ten it is the expected that happens in politics.

UPSETS occur and dark horses have been known to win, but these are merelv the exceptions that prove the rule. Therefore, thois understand these basic facts regard Governor Dewey of New ork as the leading and most likely candidate for the nomination -now just as he was a year ago. Senator Taft has made a sucessful tour of the West, favorably impressing many people and exhibiting in his speeches the courage, character and ability which are generally conceded him. Ex-Governor Stassen has expanded his activities and is continuing the open pursuit of the nomination which fee began nearly two years ago.

GENERAL EISENHOWER has been put not too reluctantly, esPite his protests into the contest as the man to be "drafted" if and when the so-called Dewey-Taft duel leaves both those gentlemen dead on the field of battle. This, of course, is the fond hope of all the otter aspirants. They have no other. If Dewey and Taft do not kill each other off, no dark horse will ever get out of his stall at this convention Of course the Eisenhower draft plans are complicated and made difficult by two things. One is the fact that General Eisenhowflr is not the only military hero who lias been proposed as.

a presidential candidate aiid for whom there is sentiment. ONE IS General Marshall; the other General MscArtliur. General Marshall voluntarily' slammed the door on the suggestion so emphatically that he ended ail speculation concel-ning him. General could have done the Same thins but Ididn't. General J-IacArthur I almost did a year or so ago but not quite, i He is expected lo close the I crack when the right moment arrives, despite the enUiUSiastie boostms I of such Republicans as ex-Congressman Hamilton Fish and others.

Thus in all probability, General Eisenhower's name will be the, only I mtiirnrv r-iflti Tiresented in the convention. That, however. RETURN OF THE SAAE In the town of Saarbmccktn, where the first engagement of the Franco-Prussian War was fought in 1870, there is or was a monument to Prince Otto Ton Bismarck. This, memorial to the man who unified Germany watched the Saar go under French ruie, then under League of Nations management, lifter World War I. It watched the Saar vote itself into Hitler's Germany almost unanimously in a plebiscite in 1935.

Now, if the monument to the old Junker still stands, it can watch the Saarland return to France in another spin of the wheel of world history. The Saarlanders, who are almost entirely German, voted the other day incorporate their land economically, rrencn nepuuric. ney uiu Vm -rim- ff-ii i of lifm but not politically, into ine Ail-rr xiul endorsed canaiaates or two 5 i is not the point. The point is that with one general, certainly of equal popularity and reputation, having definitely pushed political office aside, and another in the same class almost sure to do the same thing, it will be rather hard to pretend that there is anything like a vast puo-lic demand for General Eisenhower because of his great military achievements and glamor. IF THERE were not two other heroes (even though the? refuse to the position of the "draft" Eisenhower forces unquestionably would be stronser.

The other problem in the "draft" Eisenhower movement is Mr. Slassen. Through two years of steady work Mr, Stassen has stirred up a favorable sentiment which entitles him to serious consideration. He certainly will go into the convention with a great many more votes than the General. If the Dewey-Taft stalemate develops, the Eisenhower managers have got either to push Air.

Stassen aside or make a deal with him. The latter might not too difficult bt it would be impossible to do so and keep up the pretension of a YET it is the only way it can be done. Certainly the convention is not going to be stampeded for the General or anyone else. The gal-eries sometimes go crazy but no one ever heard of a convention doing so Delegates do not stampede. They wait until the deals are made and the word comes down the line.

Adding all this up, the most experienced politicians, Democrats as well as Hepublicans, continue to believe Governor Dewey wiU be the nominee. Some of these do not want him Some are tied un with other aspirants. Some will not vote for him'. Some hope the unexpected, but always possible, bad break win come to him. But if right now, as last winter, they had ,0 oi mvee parues-coinmun-'u iuiWhich are not foods ratification "of a constitution which provides that the people will have Saar citizenship, although the state will come witHn the French customs and monetary union, and France will direct its foreign policy and protect its security.

The vote- is not strange. In 1935 Hitler's Reich was strong and France was weak. Now France, although in turmoil, retains identity as a state, while Germany lies in pieces. Saarlanders can hope for food and economic benefitsand Frenchmen can think with some comfort of the 18,00.0,000 tons of coal the Saar formerly produced every year. bet.

12. The World and the Mud Puddles READ THE ACT. A large number of good citizens undoubtedly have been Pdiced against the new bor Relations Act bv the steady barrage of misleading propaganda directed at the measure by spokesmen for ol-ganized labor. The new law has been described as "crucifying labor, as wiping out all oi labors fioati, How to umon- 'ism. It has been denounced through newspaper aaverti sements -dio broadcasts without qualification- the American Federation ot Labor alone raised a fund nf nearly a million dollars to misinform the public about the provisions oi She law.

Should Get Acquainted The citaen who wants to be fair in his judgment of this act first of all should get acquainted with its m-o visions. If he does so, he will be greatly surprised after listening to the sob-sister oratory of its union opponents at its fairness, not only to the public, in whose interest it was passed, but to the rank and file of union membership- There is not interference the Taft-Hartley Act with the bargain-inE' rights of unions, no interference with the right to strike. Tn fact, the bargaining process is ia-cilitated. There is no attempt to detract from the right of workers to organize. 1 There is no restriction on the right of unions to resist unfair labor practices.

Limitations Out These limitations on the heretofore unlimited powers of labor dictators do appear in the law: Elimination of the closed shop, which denied the right of a worker to work unless lie pays tribute to a union. Certainly the right to work is as fundamental as the right to strike. Enforcement of the "check-off" without the written consent of the union member. Enforcement of contracts or agreements, with the union having (ConUnuftd op face EIvrn) Looking At Life By Erich Brandeii Somewhere on a back page of my newspaper this morning there was a story which, while of no 1 great timely importance, gave me much food for thought. The American Museum of Ma-i tural History has announced the discovery of a new and rich de-! posit of mammal fossils in New Mexico, yielding signiiieani secrecs of life in America sixty million years ago.

An expedition of scientists found, on a branch of the Oso Arroyo, the skeleton of a mammal known as the Mefciscotherium a leaf-eating creature about the size of a fox terrier, with a tail and five-toed feet. And there are more discoveries to come, "Mystery animals" they are called until more is known about them. "Mystery animals." What will they turn out to be? Will there be any human skeletons among them? Were there ary humans sixty million years from now a million from now a thousand years from now?

Humboldt. The Parent Problem By Garry C. SVlyen, Ph. D. ADEQUATE MILK CONSUMPTION Nutrition experts tell us that milk is the most nearly perfect food, and one of the most eco nomical.

Comparatively 1 ar quantities of milk are included in "low cost good diet" for Americans in the Iot income brackets prepared by the Bureau of Home Economics of the U. S.j Department of Agriculture. On the average. milk is one-fourth of the family's, tikal food bill. Yet inilk supplies nearly half the family's food requirements ail its calcium, 79 per cent of the 69 per cent of the phosphorous, 49 percent ol the pro tein, 3' per cent of the vitamin 30 per cent niacin and 28 per cent vitamin Bl.

Production Is Greater Milk production now on farms in the United States is greater than before the war and production per cow on farms is larger than it has ever rieen in our history. Jore than 2i million cows on three'tourths of the nation's farms now produce milk.

About half of all the milk produced in the United States is consumed in nquiti torra. rue rest gobs into butter, cheese, ice cream, and many other products (some of Though the average family does not consume nearly enough milk for best health, more and more families year by year, are including miJlc in their dsiiy diet. A recent study made in Milwaukee revealed that 9S.1 per cent of all families there purchased milk regularly. Adults need milk, too. Many old people would be healthier, stronger and would live longer if they would consume more milk.

Some of them drink little or no milk because they didn't drink it with enjuyment when they were cftildrea. Some others of them, Df course, didn't have milJi to drink when they were children, Others never cultivated a good appetite for milk in their earlier years. Some children today, even in henrnins to enjov the drinking of milk: a tew, indeed, are acquiring oositive dislike el milk.

But there is no good reason why the Marshall planners cannot consider this as part of a government polio-. It would not be the first time that Washington has assisted in the opening of new territories for American enterprise. All during the Iflth Century the government passed homcsteading bills and made land grants for the opening nf the American west. And during the early years of the present century, the armed forces were used to Rive Americans opportunities in Asia and the Pacific isles.

To ask them not to be wasteful of food, to purchase the less expensive cuts of meat, to cut down on consumption of butter is, under existing circumstances, quite mi-necessary. Struggling to keep food expenditures down in face of the terrifically high prices, the average housewife, long before the new conservation program was announced, hai been avoiding waste as one would the plague. She is willing to make further sacrifices in the matter of food so as to assure sustenance for the starving poor in Europe.
