. It's football season and the
Reverse play is in vogue, but
the biggest Reverse of the sea
son came the other day when
Vice-President Nixon said that
former president Truman's ac
tion in the Korean war was
correct and that he should be
commended on It. Just one year
ago both Eisenhower and Nix
on were going up and down
( the land saying that Truman's
bungling of the situation is
what got us into the Korean
war. The effective way they
were . able to put this idea
across to the people was per
haps the biggest factor in their
election. Now Mr. Nixon says
Truman did right. Confusing
isnt it?
