For ho only from Mr. Truman's fiitfli esteem in the Senate not make for easy sailing when a senator moves to the White House. As I'l-csidenl, Mr.

If the future ol KKP is'still in doubt in June, it is quite possible lhal he would turn down anything short of a Aniline, spontaneous Republican draft.

Vandenberg's Work Booms His Presidential Stock Sen. Arthur H.

Vamlcnberg deserves a big share of credit for the present health of the European Recovery Program. Whatever the future fights Vhal ERP' may face, the Michigan Republican's part lias been almost as important as Secretary Marshall's in steering the plan thus far. Perhaps Mr. Vandenberg's most notable achievement has been to get ERP approved by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, of which he is chairman. But this is only the climax of several months' work.

Since he gave his support to the Marshall Plan, the role has been that of mediator rather than politician. Although 20 so-called "revisionist" senators in his own parly oppose the plan, he has persuaded several others to accept at least the principle of European aid, however much they balked at some of its suggested provisions. He lias also helped persuade the administration to modify demands that seemed impossible of acceptance. By doing this, he has engineered some compromises like the liKP bill that the Foreign Relations Committee passed. In it, the first appropriation was reduced from to which pleased many of the senator's Republican colleagues.

But the period of the first appropriation was also reduced by three months, so that the cut in funds was not drastic. The foreign relations group up a separate administration for KRP, with a committee of congressional wntclidogs in the background. Originally, Secretary Marshall fought this separation. But the White House and State Department withdrew their objections Vandenberg's persuasion. The Senate committee's third change in the original proposal was more elaboration than alteration.

suggested a union of western European nations, and inserted a clause that would end American aid of any of the KKP governments went communistic. In all this, as we have said, Senator Vandenberg's handiwork is evident. There seem to be two reasons for his success. One of them undoubtedly is his personal prestige. The second reason is that Mr.

Vandenberg has virtually withdrawn from partisan politics in the last few months, not an easy trick in an election year. Yet he wasely saw that, if ERP were to be put through a Republican Congress this syear, it would have to be done by someone who renounced personal ambition and avoided political issues raised for polities' sake. This very renunciation, however, boomed Mr. Vandenberg's political Chance For Counties to Save A news Item in the Democrat from Wynne should have wide interest, told ol ttio it tin city's improved financial condition since Uin law enforcement officials lind been shifted from fee payments to salaries. Tlic result was considerable revenue from fees bcinj; turned into the city's goneinl fund.

Many of our counties still have thrir noti- elecUve ollicl.tls on a fee basis. Regardless ot how much is collected, little of it KWS lo the county icvemics. The Arkansas Public Expenditure Council dug into this matter a couple of years ago, aud came up with some eye-opening Information, For example: two counties had ataout the same population, between 35.000 and 40,000. Their total spending from general and road revenues hit close together, at, around SI30.000 in 1944. But, iii one.

the officials were all on salaries, totaling a cost of not quite $25.000. The other had fee-paid its expense for officials was $43,000. One of the council's probers "A county which has Ihe old fee system, and which has a cost for officials of 510.000 to $50.000 a year, could save 0,000 to S15.0CO by putt ing i 1 paid officials on salaries," Every llllle helps. The counties are demanding, and yetting, more and more state revenues. These revenues come in part from special taxes laid on small earn cm who hav to watcli their bmall change tc bruiik even.

And who claims in the biography he wrote for the Congressional Directory to be "the only man ever to be arrested in an English-speaking country for filing an affidavit of prejudice against a judge."
