FOUR MEDFOBD (OREGON) President No Longer Holding Leading Hand By Anticipated Favors BY LYLE C. WILSON Washington (U.PJ There is a cynical wisecrack circulating in the capital to the effect that political gratitude is no more than a lively appreciation of anticipated favors. This oldie has been dusted off for current use by those who have totaled up the troubles which have befallen President Truman since March 20. Hold Was Iniecure It was on March 29 before the $100-a-plate Jefferson Jackson dinner that Mr. Truman told Democrats he would not be a candidate to succeed himself. Mr. Truman's hold on congres sional Democrats was insecure and his standing with big bus iness and industry was well be low par before his Mnrch 29 statement. The announcement of his re tirement weakened Mr. Truman still further. It was after Mr. Truman took himself out that J. Howard McGrath boldly solved the problem created by the ina bility of Newbold Morris to function as administration inves tigator of corruption. McGrath fired Morris. Mr. Truman promptly fired McGrath, an ac tion which lost considerable sting by reason of knowledge that the President also was on the way out.

The steel strike came to a series of crises. Unquestionably two of the three most embarrassing reverses suf fered by Mr. Truman since he said he would retire came from the courts. The third was resig nation of Defense Mobilizer Charles E. Wilson. United Stales District Judge David A. Pine found Mr. Tru man's seizure of the steel indus try to be un-conslitutional and enjoined it. The nine-judge Ap peals Court in the district stayed Pine's order, but by a scratch count of 5 to 4. Seizure Legality Waited The Supreme Court cracked down on the President last Sat urday by holding that, pending a Supreme Court ruling, he must not give the steel workers a wage increase while the indus try is government-controlled ex cept with consent of private management representing the owners. The Supreme Court still must decide the basic question whether the seizure was legal. Congress has added to Mr. Truman's troubles by an all-out attack on his spending proposals as contained in appropriation bills now under consideration. There seems to be more force in the economy drive this year than previously. And foreign and domestic national defense items are more likely this year than ever before to be severely trimmed. All this grief cannot be at tributed to the fact that Mr. Truman is a sort of lame duck President now. But some of it can be pinned right there. Lions Club Leader Speaks at Meeting 01 8 Valley Clubs "World peace Is not art Impos sibility," George Doll, Ft. Mor gan, Colo., International director of Lions clubs, said at a joint meeting of eight pogue Valley Lions groups last night at the Mcdford hotel. "Through a common code of understanding, through educa tion with a return to a sound moral and ethical set of stand aids for both business and gov ernment at all levels, world peace can be attained," the speaker snld. He reviewed the various attempts to develop world courts and pointed out the fallacies which caused their fail ures. Doll stressed Llonism working under one constitution, and that it has been able to expand Into five continents and develop a strong working organization based on democratic principles, dedicated to community service and betterment. The speaker cited In particu lar the Lions of the Philippines, who did much to suppress the Huks' uprising, and then went into Japan to organize clubs In that country to work toward the common good and combat the I spread of Communism.

Warren Won't Advocate Socialism In Medical Program Gov. Earl Warren of California "does not and will not advocate! any form of socialism," he stated here yesterday. The statement was in answer to a-question from the audience on Warren's pre paid medical care program as the Republican presidential candi date opened his Oregon cam paign here. Warren's questioner' stated that many persons 'believe the governor's program "Is, or will become" socialized medicine. He wanted to know how the gov ernor, would refute such state ments. Warren stated that the bill which he introduced to the Cali fornia legislature recently would in no way change the doctor-hospital-patient relationship. It did not provide for mandatory membership, he said, but was based on an "insurance system." Under the bill, one per cent of each employee's salary, for those taking part in the program, would be placed in the state op erated fund by the employer and employee. Benefits would not cover "minor injuries, com mon colds" and other compara tively small things, Warren said, but would be restricted to ill nesses or injuries which would otherwise place a severe strain on the person's finances. The governer stated that, if such a program were to be inaugurated, it should be done without federal funds if possible. The high costs of medical care Is becoming more and more of HOT-FODDER SUSPECTED Lincoln, Neb.

Necessary payments resulting from a "calamitous illness" place millstone around the necks of persons in the middle and low income brackets, he stated. Long Recognised Warren pointed out that the serious nature of the problem of costly injury or illness had been recognized since as long as 20 years ago, when President Herbert Hoover appointed a com mission to investigate possible solutions. A plank in the 1944 Republican platform, which was backed by Sen. Robert Taft, fa vored use of federal funds to inaugurate an aid program, he said. The California governor added that, in 1935, a group of doctors in his state, under the press of depression conditions, backed a plan under which employees would contribute 34 per cent of their salaries and employers would contribute 1V2 per cent This plan was dropped because of the objections of employers and because of the start of World War II, he said.
