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.

came in the leiepnone, on ana
telegraph industries. 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.

Gov. 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. U.R) Police
searched for a 'hot-rod with a
double exhaust pipe after Walter
Becker reported someone stole
the muffler from his tractor. Po
lice theorized the culprit wanted
the muffler for a hot-rod ex
haust. Forest Transferred
He came to the local forest
from Ketchikan, Alaska. He is a
member of the Society of Amer
ican Foresters. Mrs. Bransford
ha3 been active in civic projects
here and is president of the City
Council of Parent and Teachers.
She and their three children will
remain in Medford until school
closes.
Langdon is a graduate of the
University of California, and a
veteran of World War II, where
he served with the Corps of En
gineers. He entered the forest
service at Eugene in 1945. He
also is a member of the Society
of American Foresters, and is
married.

a serious problem. Warren said.
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.
