W. A. White Lambasts Ohio's Gov.Bricker
Emporia, (INS)—William Allen White's Emporia Gazette yesterday editorialized a charge that the same forces in the Republican party "that gathered about Taft in 1912 and nominated Harding in 1920—the Republican national committee, a group of hard-boiled politicians—seem determined to force the nomination of Governor Bricker."
The editorial said Bricker "is a man who is trying to capitalize the tremendous discontent among Republicans and among Democrats who hate the New Deal. He is trying to use that discontent to rally a majority in the election of 1944.
"In that election he hopes to get by without saying anything. Without getting on either side of the momentous questions of the hour—domestic and foreign. A man who can stand in American politics, aspiring for a high office, without even the intelligence, without the courage or without the sheer honesty to make some declaration upon the most important issue that has ever
faced this old earth, certainly is not the kind of a man for the Republicans of this country to rally around.
"The country will not take a man because it feels that it has been fooled and betrayed by Roosevelt. Surely, the Republican party . . . cannot be so craven that it would conspire to sneak into victory with no issue but Bricker and bellyache. The country will demand the man
... must say who he is, what he is and why. Bricker is an honest Harding. Thumbs down."

Hungry Senators
★★★
No Bean Soup
Washington, (INS) - Even the United States senators were being forced to tighten their belts because of rationing today.
For the first time, in as long as old timers around the capitol can remember, the Senate restaurant failed to have navy bean soup on its menu.
The senate bean soup, 15 cents a bowl, and a meal in itself, has been an institution in Washington. It was put on the menu many years ago when a senator from Minnesota bitterly protested against the fact that the restaurant did not serve soup made from Minnesota grown beans. Every day since then, navy bean soup has been served.
The manager of the restaurant explained that it disappeared from the menu today because of the shortage of ham and rationing of beans.
"There ought to be a congressional investigation," one senator muttered.
