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.

Fredatory animals were respon

rnd poultry losses on Oregon
forms ar.d ranches for the three-
menth period ending September

who started school or taught in
the ares. between Carpenterville
and the tate Lfr.e in ’46, '36, ’26.
’16, 06, etc. plan on then being in
Brookirgs.,All others, who stalled
cr taught in other years would, of
course, be welcome. In 1957 there
could be a similar gathering of
others who began or taught in
.wars ending in ’’7” and so on.
Each year the reunion would cen

lied with that year’s final digit.
But we at the PILOT don’t

up to YOU and the Greeting Cards

setting this thing ’’on the road.”
Th? PILOT is ready and willing
to d : all it can to further this
truly community project. We will
welcome any suggestions and then
pcss.bly find space to print the
names of those who check in with
us. Be sure to mention ycur year.

Having heard rumors that I am denying the Father
of my youngest daughter's child visitation privileges,
I wish to state that he may have access to my home
for that purpose at reasonable times, providing he
comes alone, and has requested this privilege of
Delores, by registered letter, so that we may all
agree on a mutually accepted time.
