Morse Staying Plane Ride to Br A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington Sen. Wayne Morse is announcing no plans to visit Oregon, now that Congress is in adjournment. Most of his colleagues hit the trail home ward as soon if not sooner as the Oregen Independent quit talking late last Monday night and the first session of the 83rd Congress ended. Sen. Guy Cordon, working on plans for two excursions to for eign soil that may take him 'round-the-world during the next several months, has no' extensive plans for handshaking in Oregon either. Cordon flew to Portland Saturday for the Republican fund-raising dinner, but expects to return immediately to Wash ington, D. C. Cordon's ventures abroad will be in the Belgian Congo on an atomic energy committee expe dition for uranium and in the 3,-000-mile long chain of Pacific islands held by America in trus teeship. The latter trip will be for the purpose of drafting or ganic legislation to spell out rights and privileges in law for the peoples in the trust terri tories. Oregon's four congressmen, all Republicans, laid no plans for overseas junkets during the con gressional recess. They expect to be hard at work on the service club luncheon circuit for the rext few months in their home districts, telling their version of what was accomplished , under the new Eisenhower, regime. Sen. Morse, meanwhile, is ap plying the best and most pleas ant remedy he knows for releas- in Washington; Eisenhower Conclave Has Sidelights ing the tension that mount on Capitol Hill. He is training a three-year-old colt to be a road ster, for horse show purposes, at d nearby racetrack. When President Eisenhower flew to Seattle last Monday for the governor's conference, he made a last minute offer of a ride home to the Washington state congressional delegation. All but one accepted, for varying reasons. Rep. Walt Horan of Wenatchee figured it would be a grand op portunity to fill Ike's ear about a pet bill he has been pushing in the House. But here is what happened: Eisenhower drummed up a round of his favorite indoor di version, bridge. Ike and Sen., Warren G. Magnuson (W-Wash.) took on Sherman Adams, the president's assistant, and Secre tary of the Treasury George Humphrey. Round and round it went, with Adams and Hum phrey snowing under Eisenhower and Magnuson. After trading off partners with other congressmen on the plane, it came Horan's turn to be the president's partner. Ob viously jittery, Horan flubbed right and left at the expense of his partner. Result: no opportunity to talk about Horan's pet project. Whether it was calculated or not, no one knows but Eisen hower's invitation to Magnuson nd Sen. Henry M. Jackson helped pull the rug out from under a possible all-night senate talkathon against the adminis tration's electric power program. Morse dropped the clue to this in his own adjournment night oration, saying he had met with a number of other liberals some weeks earlier to plan a concerted speechmaking attack. He was to lead off, he said, following which the others would tee off in their own words to dramatize the seriousness of natural re sources policy. The whole effort was to center around a bill Introduced the last day by Jackson, with the co sponsorship of Morse and IS others. The bill would prevent the Federal Power Commission from giving up Hells Canyon to Idaho Power Co. without the sanction of Congress. Jackson had a long prepared speech ready to gor-when the White House called with the of fer of the plane ride. Magnuson, too, dropped his speech plans. Other senators found other mat ters to attend to ' at the last moment in- the rush to get out of town. And Wayne Morse was left virtually alone with a 41 page speech. So instead of de livering it all, much of it was entered in the record so the ad journment hour would not be delayed. DOUBLE DATE Hartford, Conn. (U.R) Rabbi Abraham J. Feldman received two degrees in such a short time he needed a police escort to rush him from one college to the other to pick them up. Both Hillyer and Trinity colleges, lo cated across the city from each other, gave Feldman honorary degrees on the same day. An average automobile has 20 to 38 electric lights. .

In 1846 the Palace of the Gov ernors in Sante Fe, was said to be the only building in New Mexico having window glass in stead of gypsum panes. At the first North American conference on apprenticeship held in San Diego's Balboa park, W. F. Patterson, director of the Bureau of Apprenticeship, U. S. Department of Labor, said an ex change of ideas between rep resentatives of nations is bene ficial to the further development of apprenticeship programs, it was reported today. Patterson traced the develop ment of the national program of apprenticeship through the years and the increase in the number of state apprenticeship agencies . which occurred after the Bureau of Apprenticeship was. established by law in 1937. The speaker called for a more thorough inventory of the entire apprenticeship activity in the United States. He said that much material haa already been com- UNDERGROUND STEEPLE Buffalo, N.
