Lodge, Dodge Get Liaison Jobs
Augusta, Ga. —(U.P.)—Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts and Joseph M. Dodge, a Detroit banker, took over today the preliminary details of easing the Truman administration out of Washington and replacing it with that of Dwight D. Eisenhower.
President-elect Eisenhower named the two men yesterday—Mr. Lodge as his chief liaison man with the outgoing administration and Mr. Dodge as his personal envoy to confer with budget officials.
Mr. Lodge and Mr. Dodge were without authority to participate in any policy decisions of the Truman administration. But they were empowered to sit in on high-level policy conferences and report back immediately to Gen. Eisenhower.
Mr. Lodge, who was whipped for re-election by Congressman John F. Kennedy last week, played an energetic role in helping Eisenhower get the GOP nomination and in the subsequent campaign. Mr. Dodge, 63, once served as economic adviser to Gens. Douglas MacArthur, George Marshall and Lucius D. Clay.
Mr. Lodge, Mr. Dodge and other GOP bigwigs conferred at length late yesterday with Eisenhower. Present also were Sen. Eugene Millikin (R-Colo.), who will be the next chairman of the Senate finance committee, and Herbert Brownell Jr., Gov. Thomas E. Dewey's 1948 campaign manager and a highly effective behind-the-scenes factor in the campaign just finished.

"He was a great mathematician in an age which produced Descartes, Fermat, and Roberval, and his contributions to physics included the demonstration that air has pressure which can be measured. He was a religious leader and philosopher, and a writer of really sparkling French prose.
"Perhaps his catchiest title in his philosophic writings is his 'Discourse on the Passions of Love'. His prose carried his reader swiftly into the deepest recesses of psychic experience. His philosophic observations jelled into such pointed savings as 'Man is neither angel nor beast, and trying to make angels, you make beasts' 'Man is but a reed, the weakest in nature, but a reed that thinks' and 'How much juster a lawyer who is well paid
