Manion Thinks He Was Fired
Because He Talked too Much
By JAMES
WASHINGTON (fft-Dr. Clarence
E. Manion is a great talker. He
seems to think, now that Presi
dent Eisenhower has fired him,
that he talked himself out of a
job.
He said recently that in the two
years since he resigned as dean
of the Notre Dame University Law
School he has been in every state
making speeches to so many busi
ness groups "I have called the
roll of American industry."
Last September 4 Eisenhower
picked the 57-year-old Manion as
chairman of the important Com
mission on Intergovernmental Re
lations. On Feb. 17 Manion an
nounced the White House had
sacked him.
The White House gave no rea
son. Manion implied it was be
cause he had made public
speeches supporting the Bricker
amendment on treaties, which
Eisenhower opposed. The presi
dent said it would tic his hands in
foreign affairs.
Sen. Bricker (R-0) proposed a
constitutional amendment to limit
the scope of treaties so they don't
override powers reserved to the
states and to give congress power
to regulate other international ex
ecutive agreements.
Manion is a crusader for decen
tralized government and more
self-reliance on the part of the
states. And in the field of for
eign affairs he has strong con
victions which may seem unique
Marilyn Flies
Back to Japan
TOKYO 10 Actress Marilyn
Monroe, tired but obviously happy
after a four-day tour of Korea,
Friday night flew back to Japan
and a warm welcome from hus
band Joe DiMaggio.
As Marilyn stepped from the
plane DiMaggio held her by the
shoulders and kissed her gently.
Only a few Air Force men were
i on hand, in sharp contrast to the
thousands who greeted Marily at
i everv stop in Korea. Military of
ficials said her arrival here had
not been heralded.
Before leaving Korea Miss Mon
roe told newsmen "I never felt
like a movie star before really
in my heart before I came to
Korea."
The blonde actress ended three
j days of frontline singing for tens
of thousands of soldiers, called her
I visit "the high point of every-
thing."
Military officials said Marilyn

to Eisenhower in handling com
munists. Although Russian and the Chi
nese communists, as disciples of
Karl Marx, operate on the theory
the United States and other capi
talist contries are doomed, Man
ion, in his 1950 book, "The Key
to Peace," suggested:
"Those in charge of our national
defense must be made to realize
that if the fascinating American
story is made plain to our actual
and potential enemies military op
position will liquidate itself in the
wild scramble to follow the Amer
ican example."
In that same book, although
much of it was devoted to praising
the founding fathers for their ex
traordinary wisdom in putting the
Constitution together, Manion
showed some displeasure with the
Constitution as it is.
He not only urged changing it
by adding on the Bricker amend
ment but .'-o another amend
ment which would limit tho pow
er of congress to spend money.
While Manion seemed to think
his advocacy of the Bricker pro
posal cost him his job, hen. Aiken
(R-Vt.) said from what he had
heard of Manion, "I'm afraid he
was too conservative to be of
value to this administration."
Other republicans in the senate
bitterly criticized the firing and
one member of the commission
quit in protest. This was Rep.
Noah Mason (R.-lll.). The 25
irran commission was composed
of five senators, five representa
tives, some government agency
heads, and distinguished citizens.
In addition to speculation about
his views, Manion has been criti
cized for spending too much time
specchmaking in general and not
enough in the headquarters of his
commission.
The government hands over to
the states yearly $2,800,000,000 in
aid in 22 programs covering such
fields as public health, highways,
education, housing. The commis
sion was supposed to find out
where federal-sttae duplication
could be avoided and some aid I
dropped.
Although the commission was
supposed to finish its work by
March 1, its last three members
weren't sworn in until November
20. hardly time for such a huge
job. It's going to ask for another j
year's time before reporting. i

Warren Gill Files
For Re-election
LEBANON Warren Gill. Leba
non attorney, has filed for re-election
as state senator from Linn
county, according to a statement
made Thursday noon. He holds
11th position in seniority in the
upper chamber.
Not many candidates have an
nounced intentions to run, Gill
stated, because election districts
may be changed. Two years ago
Oregon voters decided to reappor
tion voting districts but the consti
tutionality of the law has been
questioned. Gill said the state su
preme court will consider the mat
ter in about a week in order to
reach a decision before the March
12 filing deadline.

Teamsters' Union local, denied a
hearing at the AFL union s execu

threatened to carry his "dictator"
charges against Dave Beck into

Martin Crouse, secretary of the
Yakima local before the Team

night his attempt to bring formal
charges against Beck before the

Crouse flew here from Yakima
hoping to make a personal appear

ever, Beck told reporters the
board would not be able to hear
the Yakima unionist because of a
crowded schedule.
Crouse contends Beck violated
