The Vice Presidential Nomination
Harold Stassen has accomplished on thing:

ticket When that comes after a hard tussle

Few people ever "run" for the vice presi

President Roosevelt sent Henry Wallace, Vice

Harry Truman's confession that he was tU
most completely ignorant of White House
affairs when be had to take over the presi
dency, shocked the country into knowing
that in these days of great complication and
chance of sudden change, the second in line
ought to be kept informed of the main stream .
Of event Eisenhower has done so with Nixon.
But discussing vice presidential possibili
ties on the Republican ticket seems to be
virtually foreclosed. Ike says be likes Dick
and will be glad to run with him. Discreetly
though he mentions no one else either favor
ably or unfavorably in this connection. He
aays it is up to the convention. .
So it is, but if one who suggests a new
name gets his head promptly bashed in, what
latitude is left delegates to the convention?
On the Democratic side, while there has
been a pictorial lineup of possible nominees,
no one but Sen. Humphrey of Minnesota has
admitted interest in getting the nomination.
Instead, there is the usual attempt to piece ...
together a winning combination to pick a
radical' who will appease the northern wing
-or a Southern conservative who will hold
the South In line.

Room for Two?
United Air Lines is giving Salem good
service and the city is fortunate in its air
trunk connection with major centers. But the
Salem Chamber of Commerce is right in ask
ing about the possibility of acquiring better
connections with coastal cities.
Once before there was an effort made to
augment Salem's air schedules, but at that
time it was indicated that UAL might with
draw where competition permitted. We don't
know whether such would have materialized,
but in any event the Salem area has grown,
airplane travel has increased, and it is a good ,
time to look over the situation again.
Certainly no one wants UAL to remove
its facilities. But if West Coast Airlines wants
to come in (and it already has requested such
rights from the Civil Aeronautics Board), its ,
presentation warrants study.
West Coast would give Salem a more direct
connection with such cities as Bend, Red
mond, North Bend, Coos Bay and Klamath
Falls. But it would also be in competition for
other connections now served by UAL. So
' the economics of the situation need careful
review.

Dictatorships found out long ago they can't
exist with a 'free press because newspaper
men, as representatives of the public they
serve, are just plain too nosey. But there are
times, too, when it's pretty handy to have
some -skilled disseminators of information
around. That's what the Communists appar
ently have decided in connection with the
Eighth Congress of Chinese Communists at
Peiping next month. For the first time in .floats on Hiroshima's seven i
eight years, American correspondents are be- vers in memory of the victims of

to see or hear is another question. But what

WASHINGTON I -President
Eisenhower signed a bill Monday
which authorized conveyance of
28 obsolete locks and dams in
cluding the old Yamhill River lock
near Lafayette. Ore. to states,
political subdivisions or other
groups.
The Yamhill River lock and nine
acres of surrounding, land were
included in the transfer to state
control. All 28 projects were built
in connection with federal naviga
tion and no longer serve the pur
pose for which they were con
structed. None is being maintained
by the federal government.
The Yamhill River lock first was
opened to traffic in September,
1900. It served more than a half
century before closure in 1954 for
lack of business. The last boats
through the lock were five pleas
ure craft from Canby and Oregon
City yacht clubs which made a
special trip up the Willamette and
Yamhill rivers on the day the
lock was closed.
Opening of the lock in 1900 ful
filled the hopes of Yamhill County
farmers and merchants who want
ed river transportation to serve
the growing area around Ifa
yette, Dayton and McMinnviile.
Now that the second Congress
of the first four-year Eisenhower
presidential term has adjourned.
the voters in our 48 states might
well make an agonising reap
praisal of what they did midway
of the Elsenhower term when
they faced him with an opposition
Congress by their votes In the
1954 election.
Arrempllihairatt Cited
The first two years went
smoothly In spite of some sharp
changes in the trend of things as
they had been under the previous
administration. Inflation . was
halted. Price, wage, and rent
controls were ended. ' Reduced
, federal expenditure! made tax
reductions of more than seven
billions of dollars possible. A
phoney truce in the Korean war
was halted and actual peace es
tablished. Confidence in govern
ment and a stabilized economy
brought investment capital out of
hiding, resulting in tremendous
industrial plant expansion and
more people working at higher
wages than ever before in our
history, '
Those were terrific strides to
be made in less than 24 months.
To a considerable extent they
were made possible because the
Congress for those two years
was controlled by the president's
party. The president could ask
for and get legislation he needed
to advance his program. That
was the 83rd Republican Con
gress. Picture Changed

struction and rebuilding. The op
position majority in this Congress

to disagree with the President
and still pass wanted "highway

more than a year. 1

New Term Urged
It teems likely that our present
happy state may be the result of
momentum generated in the first
two yeara when the President
and Congress pulled together.
There are little signs here and
there.' in the auto industry and
elsewhere, that our economy is
not moving ahead with the vigor
it had not long ago. Our free
economy ia a sensitive spparatus
which invariably reacts to the
stability and dependability of
government., .
In view of the record which
is now written in full it seems
that the logical result of careful
reappraisal would be to continue
President Eisenhower in office
for another four years an3 his
time give him a Congress con
trolled by his own party.
