Chicago, July 24 (By Air Mail) Convention hall attend ance during these early days of the Democratic shindig would indicate that public interest is mild. But this may be partly due to the discovery that proceed ings can be covered with less confusion and far more comfort from an easy chair in front of a television set even the press have become, whenever possi ble, easy-chair oracles. The murderous Chicago heat, which has intensified the al ready unpleasant stockyard at mosphere, has doubtless done much to strengthen this trend, and then too the real business of the convention is conducted in various conference and com mittee rooms in downtown hotels. Thus the credentials commit tee, meeting in the Conrad Hil ton hotel, 'has become almost as much a source of interest as was the credentials committee of the Republican convention. For the real crux of this convention is not so much which candidate it will choose as how it will solve the issues of states' rights, civil rights, and party loyalty in such a way as to avoid an open break between the dissident Dixiecrats and the loyal Trumanites. For the first time in 20 years the Democratic party is in real trouble and it knows it. The grim determination with which both factions struggle to reach a compromise which will avoid a bolt on the one hand and an expulsion on the other is mute testimony to the critical position In which the party finds itself. No one wants to take the chance of losing the Southern vote, including the Southern Democrats themselves. On' the other hand, the Dixiecrats are hanged if they will allow them selves to be dictated to; the Tru manites are equally hanged if they will allow the Dixiecrats to slit the party's throat behind its back. This has been the root of a good deal of labored maneuver ing, with certain delegates try ing to force a clear-cut New Deal issue letting the Southern states fall where they may with certain Southern leaders refusing angrily to sign any thing, but also refusing to bolt, and with various delegates try ing to find a formula acceptable to all. The New Deal element started out with a bang on Monday by suecrpstine that all delegations be required to sign a so-called "loyalty pledge," designea to nrpvent the southern delegations from deleting the names of the convention nominees from tneir state ballots. Actually the lan enaee of the rjledee was mild but the reaction of the South was so violent that the original sponsors began backtracking, and a small group including Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr. at- tpmnted to soften it down by aridinsr a nroviso making it clear that no delegate would be bound by any convention decisions which contravened his own siaxe or state convention laws. Th nlenarv sessions of the onnvpntion were more or less treading water waiting for the report of the credentials com mittee which was tied up in a onntect between Truman and Dixiecrat factions in Texas and Mississippi. The resolutions com mittee had alreadv finished its work and was ready to report. It was therefore in the creden tials committee that Roosevelt and his two associates planned to introduce their compromise proviso. W W Oettinz into the credentials committee was simply a matter of walking in. Contrary to the Republican version, where press passes were carefully checked, the attitude of the nemorrats was casual in the ex treme. The only difficulty was that the room was small and very full and it was hard to find a vantage point in the forest of camera tripods and television equipment. Only by standing on a chair at the rear of the, room could one get a good view of the dele gates and obviously very tired committee officials. Roosevelt waited until a vote had been taken to seat the Dixiecrat fac tions before he explained his plan to the committee. Facing the Committee, slump ing slightly, smoking incessant ly, his long flexible eyebrows arching up into his forehead from time to time, this fledgling son of a famous politician show ed little of the finesse and cajol ery which made his father so ir resistable. He is very personable look ing with a smile like "the dawn coming up like thunder." but his method was clearly the di he was too tired for anything rect frontal assault probably else and he ended up by rea soning the committee into fol lowing his scheme rather than by charming them into it. Some had different ideas on the draft ing; Franklin was not imoressed. "Now, Johnathan," said he, "you're a publisher and doubt Sunday, July 27, 1952 Heat and TV less you know; your grammar, but I'm a lawyer and I kncrw you can't change . a resolution already adopted by "the conven tion." '. "I'm a lawyer too," answered Johnathan annoyingly, "and any way you're trying to change the resolution too." Franklin pointed out that he was merely suggesting a proviso and not touching the original resolution, and , made it clear that any attempt to rearrange the wording would give an op portunity for a floor fight which was what they were trying to avoid at all costs. He made his point; the compromise proviso was adopted by the committee and incorporated in its report, e No one quite forsees how the compromise is going to work out. All southern delegations ex cept three have agreed to sign, but, Virginia, South Carolina and Louisiana are still ruffled and defiant. They will not sign, they say, but neither will they bolt. If the convention wants to force them out they can do so, they suppose, by using the same strong arme methods they have been using up to now. Should they stick to their guns, as seems probable, no one quite forsees the parliamentary procedure from there on in Minnesota has indicated she will challenge them on a point of order. This will leave it up to the chairman to rule on whether they can participate in debate or in the vote. The chair clearly has no in clination to be so put on the spot and it is probable that an at tempt will be made to ignore the issue as long as possible. Ultimately, of course, a test must come in the first ballot, if not before. In the meantime the presi dential race intensifies. A coal ition between Harriman and Ke- fauver possibly also Russell- has been rumored formed for the purpose of. undercutting the Stevenson boom before it takes the convention by storm. Candidate Kefauver precipi tated one . of these not-entirely- spontaneous demonstrations by entering the convention hall this afternoon and taking a con.Dic- uous seat in the gallery. Doubt less fresh from a donkey ride, he looked unruffled as usual and had brought his aged daddy along to take a bow with him. Daddy rose uncertainly to his feet under the gentle insistence of his son and allowed his arm to be waved. ' ' "For heaven's sake," he seem ed to be asking, "what's all this about?" Kefauver shrugged his shoulders and probably answer ed, "It's nonsense, Daddy, but it's necessary." There is something appealing about the tall Tennesseean- possibly it is the complete ab sence of any personal, egotism, or his manner of delving into the ridiculous, not as if it were native to him or in any way touched him, but matter-of-fact- ly as if it were all in the days work. - ' The ovation, doubtless intend ed to remind the convention that Stevenson was not the only pop ular guy, outstripped any pre ceding one-. In fact, it seems to be a natural law of conventions that no self-respecting' demon stration would be seen dead tak ing up less time than those which have come before. Parks Draw Many ; Overnight Campers Salem More than 3,600 peo ple took advantage of overnight camping privileges in Oregon state parks during June, accord ing to C. H. Armstrong, parks superintendent. Only 1,545 stayed in the parks overnight in May. The biggest increase was at Armitage park on the McKenzie river. Eight persons in two cars staved there in May. In June there were 22 cars and 106 campers. : Four other state parks Emi erant Serines park in Union county, Humbug Mountain park on the coast, Silver. Falls park and Wallowa park acommo dated a total of 1,651 campers last month. The report from . Armstrong did not, list the number . of ramners at Casev State Dark, on the Rogue river, one of the parks opened to overnight camping this year. ' - Two Small Fires Reported on Friday Two small fires were reported to the state forestry department here Fridav. One was a grass fire covering about one-tenth of an acre on the Crater Lake high way north of Four Corners.- one state crew from Medford nut out the bla2e, which was reported at about 6:30 p.m.. "- The other fire was in the Little Annlptfate area.' at about 9 p.m. It was extinguished by a Rogue River National forest crew from the Star Ranaer station, snd by the state fire warden at Ruch. . Crosstown I'm afraid it'i two Matter of Fact THEY THINK THEY'LL WIN Chicago As these words are written, the ritual clamor of the nominating speeches fills the Convention hall. Perhaps this is a good time, before the final outcome, to note an extremely significant fact. The Democrats think they will win this election. In a queer way, the Demo cratic atmosphere this time is reminiscent of the Republican atmosphere in 1948. There is the same assurance, the same bland disregard of the common mis chance and misfortunes of poli tics. There is also the same ten dency, one must add, to under rate the opposition. IN 1948, the Republicans thought any Chinaman could lick Truman, and the great argu ment was about which Chinaman would receive the assignment. In the same fashion among the Democrats here in Chicago in 1952, only a very few wise and seasoned operators seem to be able to bear in mind the great popular strength and potent per sonality of Gen. Dwight D. Ei senhower. The rest of these Democrats remember only that they over estimated the general's cam paigning magic in the days be fore Abilene. They now appear to count on him to spend the en tire election campaign with his foot in his mouth,, talking, so to speak, through his toes. In the humble opinion of these report ers, this is a mood and these are expectations dangerous to any party. None the less, the Democratic confidence of victory has great ly helped so far. It is the real explanation . of the. rather suc cessful compromise of the civil rights issue which has been ar ranged here. It was something of a triumph for the Democrats to bring everyone but the Vir ginians, Louisianans and South Carolinians into the same corral. t m . "DEFORE the convention open- " ed, there was far more bit terness and far more belligeren cy, both in North and South, than there was four years ago. ihe Northern civil rights advo cates were all but readv to exnel the South from the party, be cause of the record of the South erners in the . conservative co alition in Congress. By the same token, the Southerners, filled with hatred of President Tru man, were all but prepared to take a walk. When thev all eot together here, however, thev found that they were bound together by un expectedly strong ties of com mon interest, if they had thuoght the election was koine to so against them both sides would have kept at each others' throats. The temptation to in dulge their real feelings would have been too strone. Instead. with all the fruits of victory piled up, as it were, upon the table in the platform committee room, both sides restrained their emotions lest the hoped-for feast be snatched away from them. The true atmsophere was typi fied by an incident early in the haggling, when Gov. Allen Shiv ers of Texas leaned across the table to Sen. Herbert Lehman of New York, and said, "You fellows have got to help us." To this Lehman replied, "Well, you fellows have got to help us, too." This spirit, plus the intervention of President. Truman to prevent an open breal" over the loyalty rule, produced the eventual ratner peaceful result. ; The true last-ditchers Gov. I James F. Byrnes of South Caro-; lina, Sen. Harry Byrd of -Vir-; ginia and the more fiery spirits ' of Americans for Democratic Action were abandoned by their respective armies. V.

Although the Democratic party has grown pretty old and pretty riddled in 20 years of of fice, it has still managed to look more vigorous, at least on the surface, than the Republican party. Certainly this is mainly be cause the old guardsmen con trolled the Republican arrange ments. Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy was the most important political newcomer the old guard sum moned to the Republican podi urn. With almost no exceptions the old guard orators struck only" three notes nostalgia for the past, hatred of the present, and uneasy fear of the future. And the Republican rank and file, although they nominated Gen, Eisenhower, seemed to think that the embittered oratory they were hearing was just the stuff to feed the troops. nnHE Democrats do not suffer from any of the Republican neuroses, deep as their sectional division undoubtedly . is. These people here . are an extraordi nary mixture and cross-section. But almost all of them appear to enjoy and approve the official Democratic boastine and oDtim- ism, which are as fake in their way as the venomous Republican partisanship and pessimism. Al most all of these Democrats, moreover, will fight - hard and hopefully to elect their candi date. Altogether, with Gen. Eisen hower both' leading and symbol izing a revivified and reformed Republican party, and with the Democrats in this vigorous and combative mood, the election ahead should be one of the most stirring this country has seen.

Editorial Comment AID TO RECREATION The Oregon Game commission deserves praise for taking, steps to solve the problem of public access to fishing waters. Most significant advance made in this field to date is the proj ect involving .the Rogue river. That river has been controlled largely by private individuals, red for the most part by prop erty owners except where land adjacent to the river is national forest. Access sites to be acquired by the commission will - consist of river frontage tracts containing from one to 100 acres. Space will be provided for roads, bank fish ing, boat ramps and . parking areas. ' Cost of the , project is esti mated at $35,000. It will be fi nanced by the federal tax on sports angling gear, under the D i n g 1 e-Johnson act involving distribution of - funds to the states for improvement of sports angling. Oregon can use more of these projects. And it can use more of the educational effort now being tried on the Deschutes river at Kloan in Wasco county, where the commission has posted signs reminding anglers that RE SPECT FOR PROPERTY is the first requirement in the confirm ued enjoyment of . outdoor rec reation. " "" . Rod and Gun clubs, the public schools, chambers of commerce and county officials also should take an active interest in main tenance and improvement of Oregon's recreational advan tages."

When Texas Sam Rayburn concluded his silver tongued masterpiece the other night, I was about ready to throw in the sponge . and. con cede the election. But a strange thing happened. With my brain cells no longer held in thrall by the magic of his forensics, REASON reassert ed itself. What about the mink coats, I said in this newer and saner mood. And the Lamar Caudles. And all the rest of the disgusting and disillusioning consequences of too much pow er held in too few hands too long. ND what about Kefauver? Wasn't he the young Demo crat who refused to be muzzled by the warnings to lay off that stuff and not besmirch the party that put him in office? Didn't he go ahead with his in vestigation and with the aid of the new magic of television AROUSE THE PEOPLE to their first horrified realization of what happens when too much power is held in too few hands too long? What happened to him? Why, I said to myself, it was Kefauver who saved the face of the Democratic, party by drag ging out AS A DEMOCRAT all the muck and the stench, thus proving that all Democrats AREN'T carpetbaggers and thimbleriggers. To that extent, he shored up our faith in the basic Tightness of our country. rpHEN came the most stunning thought of all: It is THIS CONVENTION (which has just . finished cheer ing itself hoarse over Sam Ray- burn's touching picture of the purity and sweetness of the Democratic party) that has been SMACKING KEFAUVER DOWN and getting ready to draft a substitute to beat him at any cost. Why . Did the big bosses in the big boss-ridden cities that are the CORE of the Democratic party's voting strength TURN THUMBS DOWN on Kefauver because they FEAR him? Did they say to themselves: "We can't have this upstart bossing our show. He'd SPOIL OUR RACKETS!" BALD, kindly old Sam's voice shook with emotion when he spoke of the PEOPLE and the Democratic party's devotion to them. But it was the PEOPLE who backed Kefauver. They did it in every primary where they were given half a chance. He has been given the bum s rush in this CONVENTION. HOW about Barkley, the kind- annH-stnnr-tellinff nM Veen? It has been said repeatedly in print, which, of course, doesn't insure its accuracy) that Presi dent Truman himself was pre paring to back him for the nom ination. But a couple of BIG labor leaders said flatly: "He's OUT! We won't stand for him." That cooked Barkley's goose. THEY softened. ft a little by saying he's too old. Maybe he IS old. But I'd say it is the business of the CONVENTION AS A WHOLE to say whether or not a candidate is too old. POOR old Alben. He was a tragic . figure as he stood there on the rostrum that night with the ashes of his dream ly ing about him. But he was a good soldier. A couple of big labor leaders had said he couldn't be president. He knew the jig was up. He recog nized the master's voice, and didn't fight back. He. took his medicine. DON'T get . me wrong. Labor has as much right as any body else to have, its say and speak its piece. That s America. But when TWO big labor lead ers in a convention of 1230-odd delegates can VETO the right of the vice-president of the United States to run for president of the United States it's too much pow er in too few hands. Too much power in too few hands too long coming months. The problem also has an im portant economic aspect. Except for scenery and Celilo falls (dur ing the Indian salmon fishing season) The Dalles area offers relatively little ' as a tourist at traction. Keeping the tourist here for a day or two is just as im partant as getting him to use the gorge route west in the first place. And existence of recrea tional opportunities in itself is a potent lure to the traveler. (The Dalles" Chronicle) Pope s Appeal To Russians To Resist Communism Tops Good News During the Week BY HOMER JENKS United Press Correspondent ' Balance sheet for the week be tween good and bad news in the hot and cold wars: GOOD NEWS 1 1 Pope Pius XII addressed an unprecedented appeal to the Russian people to resist "if necessary unto death" atheistic and materialistic Communism. The Pope's appeal, believed without parallel in the history of the Roman Catholic Church, was contained in an apostolic letter broadcast by the Vatican Radio to the Soviet Union and its Eastern European satellites. The Pontiff called upon the Christian faithful in Russia to "resist with fearless fortitude the assaults of the impious.' Clark's Interview Second 2 Gen. Mark W.. Clark, su preme United Nations command er for Korea, said in an inter view that the Communists could not sustain a major offensive in Korea for more than two or three weeks despite their huge buildup in manpower and sup plies during the armistice nego tiations. H e estimated Red strength at nearly 1,000,000 troops and 1,000 to 2,000 planes. Clark also disclosed that South Korean troops have been re trained during the past year into hard - hitting, efficient divis ions." 3 U. S. Navy carrier-based jet planes demonstrated the ease with which they could hit Chi nese- Communist coastal ports and bases should China extend the Korean war. More than 100 American jets flew parallel to the coast "just outside" the three- mile limit of Chinese territorial waters during naval maneuvers. A spokesman for Pacific Fleet Commander Adm. Arthur W. Radford said the demonstration was designed "to give the Com munists something to think about." BAD NEWS 1 United Nations and Com munist truce negotiators gave up their attempt to settle in closed sessions the last issue blocking a Korean- cease-fire-forcible vs. voluntary repatriation of war prisoners. The closed sessions began July 4 at request of the Reds, and the news blackout finally was lifted today, also at the Communists' suggestion. The net result of the 18 closed ses sions was nil. Open meetings will be resumed Saturday. 2 Prospects for settlement of the Anglo-Iranian oil dispute is ALWAYS dangerous. AFTER ALL, Wednesday night was a wonderful night. The air waves twanged and vi brated with red white and blue oratory. It was TOP FLIGHT oratory. You can't ever hope to hear better anywhere in the- world. As orators, Democrats are ne plus ultra, par excellence, sans peur et sans reproche. In the field of campaign oratory, whose horizons are the wide blue yonder, they have it over us Republicans like a tent. But, even after last night, when I thrilled and chilled and shivered along with everybody else to the sonorous cadences that shook the rafters of the auditorium there in Chicago. I kept going back to the state of mind of the man who coined the phrase that named Missouri the "show me" state. He was Willard Duncan Van- diver, an ex-naval officer who became a congressman, and at a SDeech-laden banquet in Phil adelphia he got . up and made this crack: "I come from a state that raises corn aid cotton and cockleburs and Democrats, and frothy eloquence NEITHER CONVINCES NOR SATISFIES ME. "I come from Missouri, and you've got to SHOW ME." ALL the star-spangled oratory of last night in Chicago fail ed to show me that the Demo cratic party, as now ruled and run, should be returned to pow er this November. I STILL think it has held too much power in too few hands too long. "Listen, girls, we've got to do better than twelve quarts! Think of all the littl kid depending on jroe for J org en ten's Homogenised Muhi-Yitamin, MuHi Mineral Milkl faded. Bloody Nationalist riot ing forced the resignation of Iranian Premier Ahmed Qavam, who had vowed to settle the oil dispute, and restored anglophobe Mohammed Mossadegh to power. At the same time, the World Court declared itself without jurisdiction to act on Britain's complaint against Iran for con fiscating Iranian properties of the British-owned Anglo-Iranian Oil Co. 3 Left-wing followers of An eurin Bevan, who wants to cut Britain's close defense and eco nomic ties to the U. S., showed increasing strength in their fight to gain control of the Brit ish Labor Party. All but 11 of 44 resolutions on rearmament sub mitted by the party rank-and-file for action at the annual party conference in October endorsed Bevan's demand for reductions. Other resolutions urged the party strive to keep Britain in dependent of both the U. S. and Russia, plump for Red China's admission to the United Nations, promote trade with Russia in de fiance of America, and seek Britain's withdrawal from the North Atlantic Pact. Joint Meeting Set To Prepare Plans For Grass Contest A joint meeting of the Jack son, County Stockmen's associa tion and the agricultural com mittee of the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce will be held tomorrow to plan the se lection of the "Grassman of the Year in Jackson County." ac cording to W.
