BROOKINGS HARBOR PILOT BROOKINGS. OREGON Thursday, November 24, 1955 FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH Bv CLIFFORD P. ROWE 'Z Now that Princess Margaret has had her mind made up for her about Peter Townsend as a pot ential husband, the snotlight of r>--stioning has turned again to th? possible dec’sion of President Flv.nhower relative to running for electior again. No one e’se will te making the decisior for Ik?, however; this is one which he will be making hlmrilf Whatever his ultimate decis’on, I am confident that it will be what he thinks is test for the country. Certainly he will not be thinking ¡•r manly of the Republican party . And if he decides that his healtr. cannot stand another term, he will refus? to run, not because of tr.e personal sacrifice which would ! ■? demanded of him physicallv. hut rather because he knows full well that a sick man cannot prop erly govern. I have always felt it foolish fo a football player who has been seriously injured to keep on play ing for the old school until he <■ carried away to the hospital. Not only is his usefulness to the team at an end. but also if they have no trained substitute his foolhardin- ' ess may damage the team’s future hopes. Personnally I cannot see why the Republicans and the Demo crats aie in such a tizzy. If Eis enhower chooses not to run and the Republicans have no one else who can fill his shoes, then the Democrats will probably elect a r.ew president. If he does choose to run, then the Republicans will have their man in the White House. Regardless of which party is successful, I can’t see the coun try going to the dogs overnight. I never haw been convinced that presidents are as powerful as party propoganda makes them out to be. Wilson didn’t get us into World War I; Hoover wasn’t re sponsible for the depression; and Eisenhower isn’t responsible for the world being at peace. This country is still a democracy; and whatever our status as of any year or day, w are the ones who are responsible. I sincerely hope Eisenhower feels that he can run. He has i?arread the faith of all Americans who can see beyond their party noses. But should he decline, I still am confident that our coun try has other men capable of do ing the job.
