back into the fold. They were the
standard bearers for the States’
Rights ticket.
On the other hand, it was indi
cated that a lot of other officials
—some of whom took lusty cracks
at the President’s civil rights pro
posals—will find that most, if not
all, is forgiven.
President Truman has said he
isn’t mad at anyone. While that
may not be strictly true of some
of his followers, the general trend
among Democratic leaders has
been toward patching up, rather
than widening, the party break.
For this reason, most politicians
here think there is a lot of smoke
but very little fire in the move
ment to thump the States Right
. ers’ heads by denying them im
portant committee assignments in
Congress.
Mr. Truman told his news con
ference he doesn’t expect at this
time to send any special message
to Capitol Hill on the civil rights’
question.
He said he doesn’t think a sep
arate message w’ill be needed—
that the objectives can be reached
without it. These include laws to
ban state poll taxes, curb job dis
crimination, make lynching a fed
eral offense and halt Jim Crow
ism.
But if he doesn’t get action, Mr.
Truman said he will ask for it
later.
The President’s decision against
a specail message now on these
topics was interpreted in some
quarters as an indication he does
not w'ant to cuff the Southerners
unduly while his lieutenants are
trying to enlist backing for other
parts of his program.
Mr. and Mrs. Ben Young have
purchased the B Street rseidence
of Steve Anderson and have moved
from their home on 3rd and Met
tler Way to the new location.
Poison rings, usually associated

makeshift runway was considered.
Two ropes broke twice, rescuers
said, because the glider’s wheels
had broken through the snow
crust. The lift was tried by a C-54.
Anyway “absolutely no fear is
felt for the safety of the men,”
headquarters said. “They are well
supplied with food, clothing and
heating equipment.”
The forecast was for bad wea
ther indicating a delay in a third
rescue attempt .
Seven of the men were strand
ed on the ice cap December 9
when their C-47 made a forced
landing. The other two fliers were
sent out to get the marooned men
in a B-17, and were marooned
themselves when their plane
i plowed into a snowbank. (A tenth
man presumably rode in at the
; controls of the glider, but there
was no official word to that.)
The air force said the men—
' one a doctor—appeared to be in
good health. Radio messages indi
cated they had built themselves a
house of ice blocks, heated by
i equipment dropped by parachute,
i Food also was being sent in by
parachute.
