Letter to Germany
Dr. Franz Oexle

Konstanz, Germany
Dear Franz: .
One reason why you have not heard from me for
so long is because of the election, about which I am
sure you have read. Elections are busy times for news
papermen in this country and in Germany, too, I
imagine.
I wish you could have been in this country during
an election. I don't know what they are like in Ger
many, but in the United States they are vital, exciting
things to watch.
-- .
TN OREGON, the election was to select a United
, States Senator, four Congressmen, a Governor, and a
great many lesser officials. The candidates for Sena
tor were Senator Guy Cordon (I don't think you met
him when you were here) and Dick Neuberger (who
I think you met. last fall).
- It was a hard-fought campaign, with both candi
dates going into every corner of the state, speaking
before as many people as they could reach,, talking
on radio and television, advertising in the newspa
pers, and doing whatever else they could to persuade
the voters that they should be elected.
It was what we in America call a "dirty", cam
paign, and the words
half-truths were used a
paign, not decided until two days after the election
when the last of the votes finally were counted. Cor
don was ahead in the counting most of the time, but
Neuberger finally won by
more than 550,000 cast) at the end. The votes which
gave him the victory were castjn Multnomah county
(Portland) late on election day, and were the last
to be counted.

New Orchard Heat Tested
.. The Oregon Forest Products laboratory, a state
operated research agency located on the Oreeon State
college campus, is studying
sawmill waste material for
and vegetable growers of Oregon might be -saved
heavy losses from frost damage and a considerable
cash saving may also be realized if satisfactory burn
ing methods are perfected for the less expensive fuel.
VVN important consideration in the possible substitu
tion of wood waste for oil heating is the fact that
great quantities of the former material are available
in or near the localities where heating is principally
practiced the Rogue River valley, the Willamette
valley and the Hood River valley. ;
If the Forest Products Laboratory technicians can
come up with a way to heat orchards with sawmill
residues instead of the costly and smudge-producing
oil now used, they will render both growers and gen
eral public a far-reaching and highly appreciated
service. E.C.F. : - t-.

British Industrialists
Slated To Make Bid
For Trade With China
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Foreign Analyst
British industrialists are about
to make their biggest bid to date
to increase their trade with
Communist China.
A 33-man delegation is to
leave for Peiping this week to
study the possibilities of in-
, creasing e x
ports to and
imports from
the "People's
Republic."
The delega
tion represents
more than 100
-companies
which cover a
wide field of
British indus
try. J
Charles Mecaoa - In ' its ne
gotiations, the delegation wiU be
bound : by the British govern
ment's commitments against the
export of strategically valuable
goods to Red China.
But the mission has the bless
ing of .the Foreign! Office and
the Board of Trade, which in
Britain is a government department.,-'
" ' " -V '
Stemmed From Geneva
There . seems to be a strong
feeling, in both industry and the
government t that British-Chi
nese trade can be increased ma
terially without violating the
strategic goods ban.
The present mission stems
from last summer's conference
in Geneva which brought the
end of the war in Indochina. Ne
gotiations were conducted there
between representatives of Brit
ish industry and members of the
Chinese Red delegation.
The . Peiping government has
Matter of Fact '-- ;f
' ADLAI
Washington . Oddly enough,
although the election has certain
ly been a political net plus for
President Eisenhower, . it has
probably -also been a net plus
for his old rival, Adlai Steven
son. This, at least, is the majority
view among Stevenson's fellow
Democrats.
If you look at the election re-
sults'from a special, Stevenson-
an angle of vision, you can see
why. The elec
tions did not
go nearly as
well for the
Democrats as
they had ex
pected. But
they! went
surprisingly
- well for Stev-
. enson nonethe
less. ,
7 Tn ilia firpt
Joaeph.Atop. place Sen.
Paul Douglas,, from Stevenson's
home state of. Illinois, was re
elected by a healthy majority. It
is no secret that the relationship
Detween tne two men has not
always been exactiy chummy.
But this year, things were patch
ed up, and Douglas and Steven
son did a Damon and Pythias
act on the Illinois hustings.
Stevenson went all out for Doue-
las, and Douglas, in introducing
mm, stopped just short of call
ing Stevenson "your next Presi
dent'
Eisenhower gave Douglass's op
ponent, Joe Meek, his blessins.
If the amiable but unimpressive
Meek had beat
en Douglas,
this would
have been in
terpreted uni
ver sally as
final proof that
Stevenson was
no match, , for
Eisenhower.
But: instead,
Stevenson's
bet on Doug
las paid off
Stewart Alsep
handsomely. .
What is more,
where the
Democratic performance almost
lived up to Democratic hope:
in the - governorship races
btevenson cud particularly well.
The majority of the new -Democratic'
governors, if not all-out
Stevenson men, are at the very
least decidedly Stevenson-mind
ed. ' ;
This is particularly true of
Muskie - in Mame, Freeman in
Minnesota, Leader in Pennsyl
vania. Ribicoff in Connecticut,
and, last but not least, Harri
man in New York. Harriman's
victory gives him a ballot claim
in 1956. But almost ' his - first
words 'after, being elected were,
Tm for Stevenson."
r-
A DD THAT ex-President Tru
man, on the day after the
election, for the first time came
out flatly for Stevenson in 1956.
A row between Truman' and
Stevenson, who have - had their
differences in the past, has been
the great white hope of the
large .but ill-organized anti
Stevenson underground in the
Democratic party.
It was hoped, - for example,
that such a row might start over
the chairmanship of the Demo
cratic National Committee, the
key .party post soon to be vacat
nri hv Stevenson's man: StunVion
Mitchell. . The candidate of the!
southerner, and conservatives in
said that it is interested in get
ting both machinery of all sorts
and consumer goods. It gives
priority to any supplies which
will help it in its ambitious five
year plan of industrialization.
Communist China now pro
duces nearly 75 per cent of its
foreign trade with the Soviet
Russian bloc. But there are in
dications that the Russians have
given the Chinese little beyond
military supplies and only a
small quantity of raw materials
and machinery.
Brilish Experts Pessimistic
British exports to Red China
are now running at the rate of
about $19,500,000 a year. Ex
ports from China are at the jate
of about $23,500,000. This, of
course, is a mere trickle. :-- .
The British delegates will
know, when they arrive in Peip
ing, what they can supply the
Chinese Reds.
What they have to find out is
what the Peiping regime can
send to Britain to pay for the
things it wants.
Many British experts are pessi
mistic over trade possibilties.
They hold that the Reds have
little , with which , they could
balance a big flow of trade.
Chinese Communist .authori
ties are'reported to have hinted
that they would want credit ar
rangements in any big trade
deal. There is no disposition in
London to grant any extensive
credits to a -regime like that in
Peiping. 1 '. 1 -- '
:" Hence there is little excite
ment over the possibility . of a
dramatic increase in British-Chinese
trade. But British traders
are trying to establish a basis
for the'future. . . j . .
Stewart Alsep
the anti-Stevenson underground
was Sen. Earls Clements of Ken
tucky. But now Gov. Allan Shivers
of Texas, anathema- to regular
Democrats 'because o! his
apostasy in 1952, has bestowed
what is probably .the kiss of
death on Clements by coming
out strong for him. There ap
pears to be a good chance that
a- compromise . choice will be
found in James Finnegan, an
able Democratic politician from
Philadelphia, who is believed
acceptable to both the Truman
and Stevenson forces. Thus there
appears very little likelihood of
a Truman-Steyenson row. -
What, then,' short of his fall
ing down an empty elevator
shaft, can beat 'Stevenson? The
answer 'appears to Je, "Steven
son.'! , . " :
According to friends, Steven
son is thoroughly - fed up with
politics. He is tired of the
'whiskey and mustard routine."
He is tired of making speeches,
He is tired, particularly, of mak
ing, the kind of speeches he has
been making this autumn.
Stevenson felt an obligation
to help pay off the debt acquired
by the Democratic party in his
campaign. So he has been mak
ing speeches to people willing to
pay large sums to eat dry chicken
and hear him talk. These people
were party stalwarts, with no
taste for the high level political
dissertation in which Stevenson
excels. They wanted "give 'em
hell" ' speeches, . Accordingly,
Stvenson game 'em hell but
he does not'take to it naturally;
and he disliked every minute of
it. i - v.
':' He disliked even, more the al
most universal assumption this
autumn that he was an active
candidate for the 1958 nomina
tion. And he. is now telling
friends that, far from being an
active candidate, he Is through
with politics at least for a
year. He will make no political
speeches. He .will have nothing
to do with .choosing the next
National chairman. He will stick;
to his knitting and his law prao
tice. !
frriHERE ARE those who believe
that such aloofnes could de
stroy Stevenson politically f
"If Adlai tries to play coy again,
hc's through." There are those!
who believe that taking himself
out of the. limelight is very smart
nolitics that . ' Sevenson is
cleverly protecting .himself
against the dangers of being too
far out in front too soon. .
Finally, there are those who
believe that Stevenson is simply
and quite genuinely a tired man,
puzzled about his future. And
this last theory, naive though it
may seem, may be the right one
after ,11. '

Understand Politics
Babson Declares
By ROGER" W. BABSON
' Babson Park, Mass. (Special to
Mail . Tribune). Naturally, the
Republicans are much disap
pointed by Tuesday's election
results. It, however, shows that
the Eisenhower "Millionaire
Cabinet" does not understand
politics. Frankly, there is no rea
son why these able businessmen
should be experts on 'political
matters any more than Con
gressmen should be able, to suc
cessfully run steel, coal, or au
tomobile companies, y
During the two years when
I was Assistant Secretary of
Labor, I learned that politics
is a profession. Big businessmen,
big lawyers, big bankers, and
big generals have not been train
ed for getting votes. I forecast
that President Eisenhower will
soon reorganize this and make
changes in his Cabinet and his
advisors.
Not Disturbed .
As to the effect of the election
on business, I am not disturbed.
This is too big a country to. be
upset by these election results.
The election means only a . de
lay in remedying some of the
New Deal errors. ''
In the meantime, less money
will be spent by large compa
nies for expansion, but more
money "will be spent by wage
workers in the dime stores. Both
Democrats and Republicans will
work for less unemployment be
tween now and 1956. There will
be no World War III during
1955. "All in all, I forecast no
great changes, certainly nei
ther a "boom" nor a "bust."
In the Day's Hews
By FRANK JENKINS .
This changing world note: j ;
For the first time in the his
tory of the U. S. senate, a woman
will succeed a "woman in the
senate Monday. - ?
She is Mrs. George Abel, who
replaces Mrs. Eve Bowring. Both
are Republicans from Nebraska.
NEVER BEFORE ;has a woman
walked down the: senate aisle to
the vice-president's chair to
escort another woman to take
the oath of office.
1VELL, the men haven't done
IT too well in the business of
government.
Maybe the women can do bet
ter. '
TUST HOW haven't the men
done too well? ,
If you want an answer
to
that one, take a look at the tax
statement you'll get shortly from
your spendthrift old uncle; (who
is always depicted m the car
toons as aman.)
The . men haye been running
the government.
v The government has !, been
spending, the money.
FOR the sake of : the argument,
let's assume that you who
are reading this are a man. Let's
suppose you're an average Amer
ican business man. 'Let's sup
pose further that last night you
were entertaining a customer.
Let's assume that you enter
tained him at the BEST PLACES,
With all the trimmings. .
In that event, the check would
have been a hefty one. '
LET'S now assume that it is the
next, morning and you are
telling your wife about it. In
cluding WHAT IT COST.
Let's go no farther into the
gory details. -
I just want to offer a bet at
this point that you found her
unenthusiastic about the "whole
business and unsympathetic with
your explanation that you just
HAD to do it and that after all
it was a good investment because
he was a customer and you need
ed his patronage. .
TTERE'S why your wife's . re-
cepuon of your report on
your enterprise of the night be
fore was chilly: j
SHE WAS THINKING OF
ALL THE THINGS SHE COULD
HAVE BOUGHT WITH THE
MONEY YOU THREW AWAY
SO RECKLESSLY.
THIS Fable of the Man and
A His! Customer that T've'iiist
related explains why I'm com
ing to believe that maybe it will
be wise if we get more women
into the fantastic business of
government especially the
double-f antastic business of our
federal government. .
When - it is proposed in the
congress to spend a squillion dol
lars on this or that, men can rea
son themselves into the belief
that it is a sound proposal and
that great good can come of it
Men can look at things like
that in the LARGER way. They
can kid themselves about the
greatest good ; to the greatest
number. And so on. ,
WOMEN are realists.
Being realists, they look right
through all the flubdub and com
pute how! much that ' squillion
dollars is going to COST THEM
individually in the way of taxes
and right after that they think
FtOUON
PRODUCT
Is That So?
Turn-about's fair play, isn't it?
You readers have been bombard
ing me with questions, now let
me ask you some.
Why should certain animals
be burdened with cumbersome
appendages for which they can
have no possible use? For 'ex
ample, the horned toad of our
southwest desert. It has enor
mous spines on its back and
head. Yet, it makes no use of
these weapons either offensive
ly or defensively. When mo
lested it shoots from the cor
ner of its eye a fine jet of
blood at its aggressor.
Why does the proboscis mon
key, the Jimmy Durante of the
ammal world, have such a long
snozzle? Surely that long hook!
ed beak is not for hooking over
a cherry limb to hold fruit
within hand-reach?
Why do some . animals . have
such, enormous, heavy antlers;
and then shed them each year?
The moose's weigh up to 70
pounds. Surely it takes a tre
mendous amount of vitality sim-
ply to grow these palmated jobs
within a few months, each year.
(In fact, during the antler-growing
season, the male moose lies
around. a. great deal apparently
tuckered out from the ordeal.)
Or the -elk why; his wide
spread? What could be more
awkward for . high-tailing
through the dense woods than a
five-foot-wide rack? Or, for that
matter, why does the deer have
any antlers? .After all, an oc
casional buck sometimes doesn't
even grow any and yet these
so-called ( "hummels" do right
well for -themselves Without
antlers they ram. into the harem-
masters with their antlerless
heads and rout them. Besides
there is the abiding danger of
locking the many-pronged ant
lers during combat and then
dying a miserable death of star
vation and exhaustion.
' Or, if antlers are necessary
and good,, why doesn't the fe
male have them? (The caribou,
alone, does.) After all, it is the
female : who gets heavy with
young,; nurses 'them, and then
defends - them doesn't she need
them more- than the male?
Heavy Fur Coat
Sure enough, in cold country
a heavy . coat ; of fur might in
sure a musk ox or a polar pear
from catching . the sniffles, but
why does ' the gu'ereza which
comes from the very .. nottesi
narts of Abyssinia go' through
life beneath a heavy load of
fur?: ; .
Why does the giant, fish-eat-
ine roeodile' have a .box-iuce
structure - on the upper ..end of
his snout? If anything, it's a
hindrance.
Why does the rattlesnake have
a rattle? Certainly it is a won-
lrfiil nrean and granted it
warns approaching enemies to
keeD clear. But then, doesn't it
also alert and forewarn its own
victims? And doesn't it draw the
attention of hostile creatures to
its own presence when it might
be the better part of valor to
stay quiet and keep alive? '
Whv -the erotesaue bill of the
hnrnhill. the west African bird
with the tremendously enlarged
hollow superstructure? Alter au,
