Inside WASHINGTON
Democrats in Senate Republicans Needled
Chuckle at GOP Slips . Over Sessions Mixup
Special to Central Press
@ WASHINGTON—Senate Democrats, now in the minority, are
chuckling at the troubles of their Republican colleagues and wielding the “needle” whenever possible to point up their mistakes.
The GOP scheduling of Senate sessions was a case in point. First
the Republican leaders announced that the reorganization act ideas.
would be closely adhered to by having Senate session’ only on
aa and Friday, with committee meetings the
he things began to pile up on the new leaders. They decided
to have night sessions Monday and Wednesday.
Many senators showed signs of not liking that
too much.
When the Greek-Turkish aid issue came to
congressional attention, the program really hit a
log jam. The GOP Jeaders went into another huddie, came up with a recommendation for meetings
six days a week, and night sessions as necessary.
AU along, the Democrats on the sidelines have
been saying, “when are you going to make up
~ your minds?”
_ To cap everything, the Republicans recessed
the Senate over the first weekend under their
: on program without calling a Saturday
session.

@ PRESIDENT TRUMAN’S popular reception in. Mexico has caused
gvome Latin and South American diplomats. to welcome any plans
‘the chief executive may have to visit other countries ‘south of the _
border.”
Diplomatic circles second the acclaim of Mexicans who put their
friendship on a personal basis in shouting “Viva Arrita.”
They feel that his personal charm, simplicity and self-effacement
did more to further the “Good Neighbor” policy than all the solemn
pronouncements of State department officials.
Mr. Truman's trip to Mexico was made, more or léss, on the spur
of the moment and it isn’t known whether he contemplates any
more sojourns to Latin or South American Republics.
But there is a feeling in Washington diplomatic quarters that he
could climb into the “Sacred Cow” and fly southward to any one of
the countries and be just as well received as he was in Mexico.
