O'Reilly, 4549 Pershing avenue, and Miss Jane Franklin, Present-day Americans might find it something of a shock to realize that F.

D. the first American. President with a claim to be considered Wilson's successor, is himself a practicer of secret diplomacy at its worst. The American people are all too inadequately informed about that branch of their Government which decides matters of peace and war. Hush-Hush Stuff.

Over the Quebec meeting between the President and Mr. Churchill, deepest secrecy. Over Dumbarton Oaks, darkness broken only by flashes of phony lightning. Over in London, the European Advisory Council is still wrestling with what amount to peace terms for Germans. These terms will affect you and me our happiness, our lives intimately, terri-fyingly.

What do we know about them? Nothing. What chance have we had to express an opinion or make a suggestion? None. Admittedly, most of this hush-hush stuff drapes itself majestically behind the cloak of "military necessity." 'you have our boys killed in order to give the newspapers a good story? This war is not being run for the newspaper The truth would seem to be, "military necessity" is being arbitrarily created as an excuse for diplomatic aecrecy. Proof? Plenty. Instances of Secrecy.

Tha British Government in Paris plans to do business with the French in Paris through a simple civilian Ambassador, Alfred Duff Cooper. President Roosevelt, on the other hand, sends to Paris a military mission under Maj. Gen. John T. Lewis.

Probable pretext: the U. S. has given no diplomatic recognition to the French Provisional Government. Probable reason: greater excuse for secrecy. Or again.

Joe Stalin, who also has some experience of war In a way, has no objection to publishing the terms of the Russo-Ro-Tnanian armistice. No reference to need for military secrecy here. Tet the Clark-Darlan agreements between the Americans and the French in North Africa are still unpublished. The North African campaign has long since been won. These agreements allegedly contain purely political clauses about the future use of French bases, affecting you and me.

Or take the armistice agreement with Badoglio. The way our Government insists on secrecy almost leads to the conclusion NORTH T. GENTRY DIES Lawyer and Former Judge of Supreme Court Succumbs at 78. SdwUI to the Post-DispMch. COLUMBIA, Sept.

FULLER I AN USES NAZI tain details (cession of really Italian territories to Yugoslavia?) would not increase his popularity witn ltalo-American or liberal voters at home. No doubt it will be argued, in time of war the President is the guardian of national unity and ought to suppress information that would "divide" Americans.

Who says so? Where is this expressed in 'the Constitution? The President any President is No. 1 Public Servant. Stop. The People's Right. Granted, the Constitution places the control of our foreign affairs in his hands subject to the advice and consent of the Senate.

He has a right to conduct them entirely along the principle of "secret covenants secretly ar- rivedat" if he chooses. He has a right to turn his press conferences into minstrel shows with himself as "end man," rather than serious consultations. Mr. Hull, in turn, has a perfect right to conduct his press conferences like a college president receiving a deputation of freshmen all discussion barred. Mexico City may be the proper place from which the American people should learn that their State Department recently rejected a proposal by Spanish tyrant Francisco Franco to between the United States and Argentina.

But the American people also have a right to learn that their foreign relations are being con ducted in an atmosphere of such dense secrecy that the diplomatic goings-on of the European chancelleries seem by contiast clear as distilled water. Ground for Resentment. And having realized this fact, they have a right to resent it. Resenting it, they have a further right once in a while to repudiate agreements negotiated at midnight under the back stairs. These agreements may be essential to the future happiness of mankind.

They may be master pieces of American statesmanship. But if, after being arrived at in mystifying darkness, they are re pudiated by the American people, the American administration will have only itself to blame. The trend in the United States is toward more, not less, democracy. The need of the hour is a people better and not worse in formed. This means a closer osmosis between the administra tion and the body of citizens.

It means less secret diplomacy and "Auntie-knows-best" stuff on the part of elected persons and public servants. hardly see through it. Often Poll- taker Gallup found himself explaining who the candidates for Governor and for Congress were. The folks up in Maine didn't seem to know whether Hildreth was a Republican or a Democrat, and they didn't care much. When Gallup goes poll-taking on his own, he usually takes a name like Smith or Jones.

The other day a lady who asked him his name, when she came to the door, caught him off guard and he said Gallup. "I suppose you're some relative of the fellow who runs it?" she said. Roper does not use as large a staff as Gallup, nor does he attempt a state-by-state prediction. He concerns himself with the over-all result for the nation, and he's understandably proud of the fact that, in the presidential election of 1940 and the congressional election of 1942, he was closer in his prediction of the actual result than any other poll. T.

Jefferson's Reaction. To try to gauge the proportion of voters who will bother to go to the polls this year, Roper's people ask questions intended to bring out the degree of interest of the individual in the contest. "Are you very much interested in the coming election?" That kind of question. Roper, too, has found a featherbed of indifference which muffles the sounds of the campaign. This business of poll-taking In advance is something the Found ing Fathers couldn't have possibly foreseen.

Imagine a poll-taker going to Monticello and saying to Mr. Jefferson: "Sir, I represent the Gallup poll and I would like to ask you I'd give a lot for Jefferson's answer. Somehow. I don't think he'd take to the idea. OLD SIGNS TO COME DOWN Sheriff Arnold J.

They realize that their chief stock in trade, which is public confidence based on accuracy of past performance, could be wiped out overnight if the voters stay away from the polls in large numbers Nov. 7. They remember the oblivion which descended on the Literary Digest when its straw ballot showed a victory for Alf Landon in 1936. What Pollsters Fear. The two chief pollsters, George Gallup and Elmo Roper, admit frankly that they may be misled by the non-voters who fail to register and vote.

It's easy to say you're for Roosevelt, or for Dewey, to the poll-taker who comes to your do t. The sum total of all the answer may add up to victory for Roosevelt, as it does at this moment. Yet if millions of Roosevelt voters don't go through the necessary process of putting down that at the head of the Democratic ticket, Dewey will be elected and the polls will be proved wrong. That is the fear that stalks Messrs. Gallup, Roper and their imitators.

There oughta be a law to compel people to vote, say the pollsters. According to Gallup's researches, in Australia you're fined for failure to go to the polls on the appointed day. Likewise, in Belgium, a penalty is provided for failure to vote. Gallup's Setup. Gallup has a big organization.

Beside research staffs here and in Princeton, N. he has a thousand people in the field ringing doorbells, writing down the answers and sending them into central tabulating offices. The success he has made of poll-taking, and it's a very profitable business, is largely due to his own tireless energy. Besides directing the national poll, and many other special polls including some done on order of the Republican National Committee Gallup has an executive position in one of the big advertising agencies. One thing he's learned, and that is that the real way to find out what people are thinking and how they're likely to vote is to get out and push doorbells yourself.

He did that for three days just prior to the recent election in Maine, concentrating on the town of Lisbon, Me. The thing that chiefly impressed him was the apathy he found.
