A. EVENTS 25 YEARS AGO TODAY Gloom Is Spread At Philadelphia (Prom The Washington Post) It is true, of course, that Harry Truman is a colorless fiirure who haj 5 disappointed the expectations of many of his fellow partisans. It is also true that the Democratic Party is rent by violent disagreements on such issues as civil rights. But neither of these facts is anything unique in the history of American politics. Many elections have been won with ordinary men.

and sharp intraparty disagreements are the inevitable concomitant of our two- partv system. In other words, the outlook for the Democratic Party w'as by no means hopeless until a vast number of supposedly loval Democrats did their best to make it so. When the going gets rough a cohesive party closes ud ranks, compromises differences in the interest of a w'orking program, and broadens the base of its leadershio to make up for any loss of a dominant individual leader. Has the Democratic Party been in power so that It has forgotten these facts taught by adversity? The revolt of the Wallaceites should have been fair warning that all the party's reserves of strength would be needed to make a creditable showing in 1948. Yet other factional leaders have allowed thetr separate preferences and pre.ludices such unrestrained scope as to bring the great quadrennial conclave to the brink of despair.

With the final collapse of the Elsenhower bubble, many of the rebels are in a chastened mood. Apparently most of them are resigned to the inevitable nomination of Mr. Truman, but they will And it difBcult to support with any enthusiasm a candidate whom they have worked so hard to displace. The grave mistake they have made, in our opinion, is in assuming that a party must find a glittering name to adorn its ticket or go down to defeat. Some of our most succes.s- ful Presidents have been elected, not because they were great heroes or scintillating personalities, but because they represented sound and progressive policies and a party capable of carrying those policies into effect.

If tha.t historic fact has been forgotten, or if the convention should faU to rally the dissidents to a new sense of party responsibility, the bankruptcy within will indeed have reached serious proportions.

Viewed with the of several thousand miles, the situation may be judged to still confused, with a considerable period ol waiting perhai-)s ahead. The outsider can readily appreciate the tension and anxiety which crip both the oc- cupyine force.s and the German population, cooped up in the be- leagured city, with the of Russian domination flowing around them. A week has now passed since the Allied notes were sent to Russia. Meanwhile, through Rood weather and bad, the unprecedented air lift carries in its daily load of supplies, The of this effort is boTind expectations, even though shortages and fresh hardships may intervene. On the diplomatic unquestionably also on the military are goina foi-ward in anticipation of Russia's reaction to the Allied notes, Tlie channels, of communication with Berlin are so clearly a matter of and parcel of the whole post-war European it is diiTicult to see how a flat rejection bv Russia of the Allied demands can be allowed to pass without stime answering action.

An eauivocal answer, or a proloneed and indefiiute delav, must lead likewl'ie to some kind of ultimatum. The present met hod of supplvinR Berlin bv air elves us time to explore possible wav out of the impasse: it opens to Russia the maximum opportimitv for a retreat. But that method, so castlv and so precarious, is not to be deemed a for the land and river transport which should rightfully be open to us. Tlie present situation cannot be permitted to run on. It will have to be ended not in the first instance bv Russia, then by the Western powers.

He was courtly to a degree in this but he not wholly innocent either, there seemed to be a chance thal when the convention came some chain of events would make it advisable for her to take his part. Only a week ago, he tried to court Mrs. R.

as his vice-presidentij nominee, but she was skittish of his evil passes and jumped away with a girlisli whoop. However. Mr. Truman probable did It just out of juvenile mischief By then, the fat had been in the fire for a long time. Jimmy, the eaglet of the dynasty, had opposed Mr.

Truman In California where bv the exercise of the splendid ery of the royal family, he had become chairman of the state commit- mittee and was organizing to brinn the delegation here in his own pocket. At that time Jimmy he could make a deal to nominate General Elsenhower and steer the family back into places of influence in the party. But the family.s intelligence work seems to have been very bad. Elsenhower realized and so did most of his real that his candidacy would be a tragedy for him and them a sorrow to all those incurably juvenile Americans who still worship heroes. In a real campaign he would have been bled with a thousand cuts, horribly disfigured anl possibly destroyed.

Timiditv may have been no influence upon his deci.sion to say with absolute finality, but it was well he did They were laying for him in the bushes and the attack would have been no strictly partisan dolnR of the Republicans but the cf the blood-loyal devotees of the laie General George Patton. Anyway, General Eisenhower at last found a chance to get huiu with the Roosevelts for many Impositions and especially with EllioU. In his book Elliott had written that Elsenhower Ignomlniously polished apples with him to get the job of commander-in-chief. He said also that Ike was so far down the scale of the late Roo.se- assistants that when he, Elliott, a mail-order colonel, returned from a mission to Moscow, the commander of the A. E.

F. had to ask him what the Russians had and what they were doing. Now, at the last wild hour, the family and Leon Hendenson wanted Eisenhower to jeopardize his soft job and the dignity thereof at Columbia university to fight a forlorn ix)litical battle for no other possible purpase than to recoup the fortunes of the Roosevelts. It seems reckle.ss indeed to say that this failure marks the final disappearance of this redoubtable familv from important politics. Million's will be afraid to hope this can be so.

Yet it seems to be the fact. Ti'uman will be the nominee, no thanks to any of the Roosevelts. When the narty is reorganized their old prestige and pull will 'oe gone and they will be most of all to blame for the terrible indignities of 1948.
