One democratic leader an nounced jubilantly that he is, but his report drew a guarded "no comment" from the demo cratic high command. OOP Sm Defeat Several republican! thought the question was academic. They said it was obvious that Mr. Tru man is a candidate for re-election and predicted confidently that this time he will be licked. Quick To Do Quick as a breeze! Crocheted with ease!

George Luckey of Los An geles, vice chairman of the Cal ifornia democratic central com mittee, got the thing going. He told newsmen after a White House visit that Mr. Truman answered "maybe so" when he suggested that the president tiy for re-election. "I've Just been talking to the next president ef the United States, he said. "He's my boy. I'm all for him." Word! Not Repudiated He said he used the same words in Mr. Truman's presence and they were not repudiated. Luckey did not pin Mr. Tru man down definitely on his can didacy, but he left the impres sion that it was a good political possibility. He said the president told him that "if .we have the same team together again, maybe we can do something." By the "team," he said, the president meant the same voters who supported him in 1948 in his surprise victory over Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York. Democratic leaders at f 1 r t were surprised, then concerned. Should Not Be Pushed Some thought the statement premature. Others took the ktand that President Truman himself has not made up his mind and shculd not be pushed into a de cision. A spokesman at democratic national committee headquarters said only: "There will be no comment from the committee on the Luckey statement. That goes for Chairman (William M.) Boyle and all others." Reaction at the White House was that Luckey's remarks were premature at the very least. While some close associates of the president have assumed that he would run again, his closest advisers aren't talking about it now on the grounds that the time for decision is still about two years away. James Roosevelt, the late pres ident's son, said in Log Angeles ttiut Mr. Truman and Vice Pres ident Alben W. Barkley seem to be "an excellent team." He de clined further comment. MORTON GRADES HIGH Klamath Falls, Feb. 14 Don E. Morton, Gold Hill, was an honor student at Oregon Techni cal Institute for the fall term, corrding to Winston D. Purvine, director. Morton, enrolled in sports equipment manufacture and repair, had a grade point average of 4.0. The grading sys tem used at Oregon Tech is sim ilar to that used in other state schools, however, students re ceive a separate grade for atti tude and application in each sub ject. The average of this grade is figured in the over all grade average in arriving at the grade point average. California exports approximat ely a billion feet of lumber annually.

'We mempers of congress who spena some of our time at home know differently, but it has looked that way in this city populated by ad ministration payrollees. Recent ly, however, the republicans staged a big Lincoln day party here. Everyone was surprised, in cluding the republicans, when 12,000 people crowded into the hall and another estimated 3,000 were turned away for lack of room. There has been consider able optimism in republican cir cles here since that event, UNDER THE heading of "now it can be told." I can reveal the fact that I had considerable to do with drafting the recently published statement of principles and objectives of the republican party. Representative Joe Mar tin, republican minority leader of the house, asked me to be a member of a three-man drafting committee. After drafting our own version we met with the three members of the senate drafting group and with repre sentatives of the republican na tional committee and hammered out a final consolidated draft which was approved and re leased. It was an interesting ex perience for me and I feel that the job we turned out was a pret ty good one. One thing about the recent republican 'statement which is different from most plat form documenti is that it con tains 23 short, positive state ments under the several headings which recite in plain language what the republicans propose to do when they are voted into power. When these positive and definite short statements are set out by themselves they represent an effective answer to the ques tion: "Why don't the republicans tell us what they stand for?" Obviously there is nothing startling or new in the recent re publican statement. Its chief value lies in the fact that it is a short summary of what we have been saying. It seems to me the only serious failure of the repub lican party is its inability to geU lis actions ana us pnnosopny properly and accurately publi cized. We have been a little bit like the fellow who winks at his girl in the dark. He knows what he Is doing but no one else does. I hope the party statement which I helped create will do a little to ward curing this situation. THE HOUSE during this ses sion of congress has been plagued with poorly drawn and ill-considered legislation coming to the floor. It has also been frustrated by delaying tactics. The postal rate Increase bill passed recently was a jumble of bad guesses on how to raise more revenue anc' was amended on the floor to such an extent that few members knew what was in it when the fi nal vote came. The bill to aid Korea came to the floor with the declaration that $120 millions were required. It was rejected by a close vote. Warmed over it was brought back and passed for half that amount. Other officers, all named with out opposition, included Paul II. ttynning, urst vice president: Lyndell Newbry, second vice president; Warren G. Lesseg, third vice president; Harry Sker ry Jr., secretary-treasurer, and Mrs. G, Q. D'Albini, historian, re-elected. Mrs. M. Allison Moul- ton headed the nominating com mittee. The banquet, which featured an addres by United States Sen. George W. Malone of Heveda, was attended by about 230 coun ty republicans. Murray Gardiner, retiring president of the club, presided. Messages Road Letters and telegrams from state republican leaders were read at the meeting by Don New bury including those from Sena tors Guy Cordon and Wayne Morse, congressman Harris Ells worth, Gov. Douglas McKay, Secretary of State Earl Newbry. Ralph Cake, republican national committeeman for Oregon, and Claude Ingalls, retired publisher of the Corvallis Gazette-Times and one-lime speaker at the an nual dinner. Edward Branchfleld, a mem ber of the resolutions committee, presented a resolution of sorrow and condolence on the recent death of four prominent county republicans, W. J. Looker, Miss Grace Chamberlain, Irving Vin ing and Mrs. Stella C. Wagner. The memorial resolution passed unanimously. Officials Presented The new officers of the club. and a number of county officials present, were Introduced bv Gar diner, and John Niedermeyer, chairman of the county republi can central committee, spoke briefly In regard to the forma tion of a platform for the state party. Other features of the evenins included group singing of pa triotic songs, led by Henry End ers; the invocation, asked by the nev. ueorge K. v. Bolster, rec tor of St. Marks Episcopal church; a reading of Lincoln'! Gettysburg address, by Richard Dickerson, and a group of vocal selections by Robert C. Wright, accompanied by Mrs. William M. McAllister. (See story on page one). GREAT STRAIGHT 60 W)30 O 45 Qt. A ft.
