An Independent Newspaper Helpful Harry The Bend Bulletin, Tuesday, August 21. 1956 L a r. P f f Wo Koom tor boondoqqles ... ... Senator Wayne Morse spent the weekend in Jeffer- " son and Deschutes counties, building a new set of political fences to take the place of the old ones which blew down in '''the big windstorm which followed his resignation from the Republican party. ... Outwardly Morse has changed little from his last major speaking visit here, nearly three yeurs ago. At that time he was the sole member of the Independent ,. party in the Senate of the United States. - This is Morse's third campaign for the office he now . holds. It is hid first campaign as a Democrat. (The writer has never felt the bitterness expressed by many because of Morse's change of party. Morse can "be -accused of bad manners in switching when ho did, However, in uiai ins swucii came ai. a Lime vwion 11 imcw the control of the Senate in the hands of one party when another party was in the White House. The switch changed the all-powerful committee chairmanships in the Senate.) Morse's campaign this year is following a pattern he denounced a few years ago. In order to build that new set of political fences he finds it necessary to try to be all things to all men, a rather difficult position at be.t. Morse has declined to issue an answer to a scries of campaign charges made by the state Republican organiza tion. He has said he will discuss issues in the coming cam paign. He leaves a newspaper no choice other than to dis cuss these issues as he brings them up. During his stopover here he spent some time talking about his opponent's views on federal aid to education Mor.sc said he did not know just which plan of federal laid his opponent favored. This newspaper likewise is in .he dark on that question. Z The Morse view, expressed in an interview here, is that federal aid should be broad, .providing help for school construction, teacher salaries a n d special education facilities. This should be made in the form of grants to t no states, without lecieral "strings oeing auneneu, ne said. ,u:.. ..... rt ..win w t. npn n, ..nf onti irtnrn( ii tne need lor icaorai am to etiucaiiun. u noes not awm necessary in Oregon. It may be needed badjy in other sections of the county with which we are less familiar. But if federal aid to education is to come, and it seems likely, it should be subject to some "strings", and not ; just be a flat grant without any controls over its expenditure.

I.iltpivisf. rei-inient states should maintain definite standards of education or lose their grants. This procedure is followed in other federal grant programs, and this is -nothing new. All states are not as fortunate as this one in keeping education out of politics, for example, and federal tjumls should not be used to perpetuate some of the giant boondoggles now being carried on under the guise of ed-'.jication. What They Are Saylng At Frhco ; By UNITED PRESS Gov. Arthur B. Langlie of Wash ington, in his keynote address to the Republican National Convention: 'Our Dartv's purpose in this campaign is not to 'give 'em hell' but to give them leadership. '. . .We (Republicans) ask to be judged for the future by our rec ord in the past three and a half years. For we have come a long way in a short time, mere is peace in the land, there is well being in the homes of America, and there is renewed faith in our time-honored principles of individ ual freedom and personal respon sibility.

' Vice President Richard M. Nix on on the type of campaign the Republicans will wage: "We are ndl going to answer in kind the attacks the Democrats made on us last week (at the Democratic convention).

M NEA Service, Inc Truman, Stassen Can Only Thrive on Political Adversity By I.VI.K C. WILSON United I'ri'Hs Staff CorrcslHMKlciit SAN FRANCISCO (UP) Harry Truman of Missouri juid Har old E. Stassen of Minnesota are in a spot in which they can thrive only on political adversity. Moreover, each is dependent on political enemy to make him look good. If the Republican Ki- sonhower-Nixon ticket fails in No vembcr to defeat the Democratic Slevenson-Kefauvcr ticket, then Mr. Truman Is no prophet. Mr. Truman is the man who said Ad- lai E. Slevenson lacked what II would take to win a president ial election. Mr. Truman coppered that judg ment, on retleclion, but not much ginning to spoil. Stassen's faithful ness to the lost dump-Nixon cause is matched in modern political his tory only by Mr. Truman's in sistence on going down with the Avercll Ilarrinian ship in Chicago instead of taking to the boats. Mr., Truman is in double jeop ardy, which is Unconstitutional ex cept in politics. Truman To' Campaign Mr. Truman is on record that Stevenson will lose without him but would win with his help. Where, is Mr. Truman going' to be if he helps and Stevenson still loses? From Stevenson headquarters Monday came news that lull use would be made ot Mr. Truman in Sweetness and Light Dept.

Sees I'Vwer Voles His prophecy was lint Mr. Ei senhower would reap fi to 8 per cent fewer votes wilh Richard M. Nixon on the ticket than without him, and Stassen said that could be Ihe margin of victory or defeat in close slates. This Republican National Con- venlion will oblige Stassen to the extent of putting Nixon on th' ticket. If President Eisenhower and his young friend are defeated in November. Stassen can file Mold-you-so, especially if the el lion is close in pivotal slates. As for Stassen's campaign lo nnniiir.ite some other Kliticiau Inr vice president, it is dead and be- unclear, however, whether it was intended to put him on the speak ing circuit or, merely, lo seek his advice and counsel.

This is the story of an Oregon pioneer who missed "ageless recognition because of the ignorance of his fellow - men. That pioneer was John Settle, known to early-day res idents of the Lebanon community as "Uncle Jackie." He .- took up ft donation claim about two miles from Lebanon. "Uncle Jackie" Settle was one of the organizers and . directors of the Willamette Valley and Cascade Mountain .' Military Wagon road project just !() years ago. He was one of the men who had actual experience in building that rugged route of pioneer times. It is said that while out hunting one day while on the road project he found two beautiful lakes just east of . the Santiam summit. One was named for him. The other . was I!luo lake. . Old timers used the name Settle lake for years. Later, " in- the early (lays of Rend, it was known as Settle's lake, then as Suttle's lake.
