How About Money? We have often admitted in this column that the money problem is not one We don t understand there is such a thing and So when we want to know something about money, we go to some source that is of finance or supposed to for it. I T S. TREASURY SECRETARY HUMPHREY we have regarde'd as such an authoritive source. But when he appeared before a congressional committee the other day and was asked about money, and particularly the danger of inflation, he declared his policies had been responsible for checking the inflation trend and had cushioned the "threatened recession." He admitted his inability to carry out his promise of balancing the budget and regretted it but did not think this inability represented any danger to the national economy. Nor did the growth of the national debt. This was reassuring. But Secretary Humphrey was immediately fol lowed by his Undersecretary, a Mr. Burgess, who did not agree entirely with his superior, for he said the "279 billion national debt is too large and we would like to reduce it." THEN, just to make the confusion worse conf ound- ed, we went to one of thorities, the "Wall Street Journal," and found tnat it did not agree with either of the officials of the U. S. Treasury. It deplored the .increase in the national debt, condemned the failure to or attempt to and came to this conclusion regard ing inflation, quote: "It is a simple fact that where a government runs a deficit and where it can not, as this administration can not, borrow the difference from the saving of its citizens it can do nothing else than manufacture the dollars and call them money. It is also a simple fact that when a government does this, as this one does, the result is IN FLATION, a depreciation of aU the money which the people hold or receive by so much is each citizen robbed of a part of what he has or what he earns." FINALLY as the last straw, "our favorite banker" thereupon declared that wild bull-market on Wall hower inflation," which dared no longer exists.; anything about money, either? . He is a banker he should. CO in the realm of money, we are ba"ck where we T started from. The Secretary of the his chief aide says another, doesn't agree with either, an ardent Eisenhower supporter, says something else again. It couldn't be or COULD it? that when it comes down to brass tacks, no one KNOWS any thing about m6ney or its habits, they only have opin ions. K.W.K. How A bout - For a professional fighting man President Eisen hower is amazingly mild This is fortunate in foreign affairs. But we are not so sure particularly m thef President's own official family. rvOROTHY THOMPSON, well known newspaper kuiicouuuucui aim a dent, fears, for example, not tried to keep the proper discipline, particularly m his cabinet. She calls attention to the fact his Secre tary of Labor recently made les regarding compulsory White House had to repudiate. "Can it be, asks Miss Thompson, that the Presi dent's cabinet members versial issues, without first it wouia seem so. A ND now in answer to ate leader and critic, Mr. Eisenhower says the latter is entitled to his views and what differences there are between them are minor. 17E wonder if the President has ever reviewed those differences? If so, how can he call them "minor," when both he and Secretary of State Dulles have felt it necessary to publicly repudiate so many? Presidents and Secretaries pay any attention to such infractions, that are "minor." 170R example, here are a Last November, without consulting either the President or Secretary Dulles, the President's Sen ate leader, Knowland, publicly called for a "blocade of Red China." The President promptly opposed it. In September, the California. Senator wired the President to break off relations with Soviet Russia, because of the shooting down of a U. S. naval plane. The President declmed. Then Mr. Knowland criticized Senator Flanders for introducing a resolution; stripping McCarthy of his committee chairmanships and joined with the Wisconsin Senator in declaring that communism "WOULD be an issue m President Eisenhower communism would riot be OENATOR KNOWLAND finally agreed somewhat against his. will, and nameda special committee Sunday.

Matter of Fact EISENHOWER UNDER ATTACK Washington It is now clear that President Eisenhower is go ing to be subjected to an experi ence ne has never had be fore sustain ed personal at tack. The attack will come, 2 course, fro: two directions. Sen. McCarthy and those who still choose to ape him will Joseph AIsop attack with the usual McCarthy meat axe. The Democrats-rinitially, at least will use the needle. There is not much mystery about McCarthy's motives in at tacking the President. Partly, of course, McCarthy was plying by ear after his usual custom. His first post-censure hearings wpre coins badly they were dull, and would garner no head lines. So McCarthy seized , the occasion to call in the press and blast Eisenhower. The result was. of course, the blazing head lines which have become as nec essary to McCarthy as drink to a drunkard. BUT although the timing may wpII have been a matter of sudden imDulse. the act of mak ing a direct, personal attack on the President had undoubtedly been long contemplated. For, as lone as Dwieht Eisenhower is President of the United States, McCarthy has nowhere to go in the Republican party. McCarthy has now reacnea the stage where he can only re tain any real power in the party by blackmail threat, open or im plicit, to lead his followers out of the party. In recent weeks, McCarthy's journalistic support ers have been hitting the third party theme more and more fre auently. The "Mobilization of Ten Million." was clearly de signed as a possible framework for a third party movement. -This implied threat by Mc darthv is enoueh to terrify a lot of Republican regulars. The en thusiasm for Eisenhower of many regulars is squarely based on his vote-getting abilities, and the third party threat, could easily cool this enthusiasm . UNDER the circumstances, es pecially if he had been sub jected to continuing personal at tack, Eisenhower might decide that he had had enough. McCar thy has undoubtedly heard re ports that the President is by no means enthusiastic about an other term, and that Mrs. Eisen hower is very much less than enthusiastic. If Eisenhower were out of the way, McCarthy would again be a power to reckon with in the Republican party. ' He " cannot ' now conceivably get the Republican presidential nomination himself. But he can hope to be king-maker still. For, in the donnybrook Republican convention which will certainly result if Eisenhower withdraws, McCarthy would control a size able block of delegate-votes. These votes would be worth a price so high a price that Mc Carthy might well hope to exer cise a veto power over the nomi nee. And even if 'McCarthy cannot be king-maker, he can still hope to be king-destroyer, by adopt ing the role of Samson in the Re publican temple. The fallacy is, of course, that a McCarthy third party would probably actually strengthen an Eisenhower Re pt;an party. But McCarthy and his followers obviously be lieve that a third party move ment will wreck the Republican party and that they stand to in herit the wreckage. SUCH is the logic of McCarthy's sudden slashing attack on the President. The logic of the far more muted Democratic at tack, which is also just now be ginning, is far more simple. Adlai Stevenson himself is re ported to have told friends that Eisenhower would beat any Democrat running against him, as of today including Adlai V to investigate the charges against McCarthy, then proceeded to repudiate the findings' of his own com mittee and voted against censure. President Eisen hower complimented the chairman of the committee for his dignified, able and unselfish service ! So one might go on and on. , Knowland voted for the George' substitute of ,the Bricker amendment, which the administration strong ly opposed, he favored us retiring from the UN if Red China were admitted, another stand the Presi dent had to speak out against. OENATOR KNOWLAND is entitled to his opinions of course, and to free expression of them, as the SENIOR SENATOR FROM CALIFORNIA, but he is NOT entitled to such freedom, as the leader and, spe cial representative of the President and his party, iif the Upper House. We have often expressed this department's sur prise that President Eisenhower should tolerate such insubordination and persistent opposition from his chosen representative. We are j also surprised that Senator1' Knowland should not have the good sense and good taste, as long as he differs with his party leader on so many vital issues, to resign. . - . But it doesn't look as though either "blessed event"-would happen not soon at least&-R.WJU : b7 io.ePh aisop Stevenson. This being the case, the Demo crats must flna ways and means of pulling down the President's great personal popularity, in the next two years, if they want to win back the White House. Some Democrats, Including Ste venson and the shrewd Senate leader, Lyndon Johnson, believe in letting nature take its course, relying on events and McCarthy to reduce the President's popu larity to the point where he can be beaten. -' ' Others, including Paul Butler, the new Democratic National Chairman, believe in giving na ture a helpful shove. The gen eral tone of the Democratic at tack on the President was prob ably set at least for the pres entby the current issue of the cleverly edited 'Democratic Di gest." The Digest has indulged in anti - Eisenhower needle - pricks before. But in this issue, the needle is inserted far more deep ly than ever before. Initially, at least,"the idea will be to portray the President as "a nice chap, but not too bright." In time, as November, 1956, draws nearer, the Democratic attack is likely to get much tougher. SUSTAINED, politically moti vated personal attack will be, of course, an ; almost wholly novel experience to the Presi dent. It will be interesting to see how he reacts to this experience. If his forthright, good-humored, and sensible press conference response to the McCarthy meat axe treatment proves typical, the experience may do him, po litically and in other ways, more good than harm! (Copyright, 1954, New York Herald Tribune Inc.) Crash Kills Son Of CIO Union Chief ! Oregon City (U.R) Ernest E. Hartung, 28-year-old son of CIO International Woodworkers of America President Al Har- tung, was killed instantly Sat urday when his car struck a south of here on Highway 99, sout hof here on Highway 99, state police reported. The crash sheared off the rail's upright and young Har tung was impaled on a laminated 4-by-10 timber. It took nearly two hours to remove his body. State police said Hartung was alone. The car was traveling south and the ear was filled with five-gallon cans of silver aluminum paint. The victim was en route to Salem to do a paint ing job. Young Hartung also is sur vived by his wife, Betty, and three sons. Officers said the car ' was a total wreck. The heavy timber pierced the right front end of the vehicle, passed through the driver's compartment and im paled victim at the waist line. Intersection Safety Talked by Cpuncilmen Eagle Point A discussion about making the intersection of Main and "C" sts. in Eagle Point safer for school children was held at last week's city council meeting, according to Sam Coy, recorder-treasurer. : The council agreed to write a letter to the State Highway com mission requesting either four way stop signs at the location or else a stop and go signal. It was pointed out that there is also lack of room for pedes trians to walk and also that a building obstructed the view of oncoming traffic. In other business, F. A. Knox reported that the city books are in order after one correction following the annual audit. A request for more parking space from Red Blanket Lumber com pany was granted. A park clean up campaign was approved as the 1955 project for the local Boy Scout troop.

Mrs. Gerlinger Explains It All To the Editor: Through my press clipping service it has just qome to my attention that the yice-chairman of the Republican State Central Committee at a re cent Jackson County Republican women's luncheon in Medford stated among other causes of the recent Republican defeat that there are too many Republican groups, eacn working alone. And she stated there are no less than five Republican wom en's organizations in the Port land area, and there is jealousy between the members of these groups." As far as I have discovered during my more than twenty years of active participation in Republican party affairs there are only three Republican worn en's groups in this area, two of which I founded. State Republican Council of Oregon Women, Inc., was started nine years ago under the author ity of the State Central Commit tee and has been a strong factor for GOP success in Oregon. The idle talk that one hears occasion ally from some sources that the two state groups should merge into one big happy family makes no sense whatever. I would be glad, to see more large local groups of Oregon Republican women formed for active partic ipation in party affairs. And am sure, as far as I know, that no jealousies exist among the leaders in the two existing state groups. We all have a common purpose, which is to serve our party and our nation. The two women officers and the one woman officer on the State and County Republican Central Committees respectively were all active in the sabotage of Pro America, National Organiza tion of Republican Women the first state-wide Republican wom en's group to be formed in Ore gon (1935). The same trio, aided by another Republican officer of high rank, are now turning their destructive activities toward the State Council. Those of us who are closest to tne political situation in our state and in this county " know that the recent election was lost right in Multnomah County through the many empty pre cincts and the many people who were listed as precinct workers who were ..- completely inactive, The women who dominated this county for a long time were too busy usmg their political pres tige for personal gain to get down to the fundamental work of the precincts. We precinct people will re double our efforts and trust someone will be put to work in every one of the precincts in this county so that in the next elec tion the Republicans will be the winners with their - sound eco nomic and patriotic standards. -Mrs. George T. Gerlinger, . Portland, Oregon. Christmas and Jobs , . To the Editor: Well, winter has set in on our dear valley. Soon it will have its death like grip into all of us. Then the usual complaint will be raised. "We need an industry." I some times wonder if the industry will ever come. Yet while we're setting on our posteriors, many of our local men and women are unemploy ed. Unemployed and wondering if they'U ,be able to pay next month's rent. Unemployed, and hoping for enough money to buy the kids a Christmas present or two. Unemployed, wondering and hoping for just a chance to put in a few hours of work. ' But then there is the f eUow with two jobs. Or the dual em ployed family. They who have one place to work but want two. It seems they have but one thought in mind and that is "make all the money I can." Perhaps he's a school teacher in the day but at night he carries groceries at the corner store. What's he think of unemploy ment? Probably never thought of it, after all between the two jobs he has an income of $8,000 a year.. ' . Yes, it's Christmas time, time to stop and think a little about things. Perhaps if some people think enough . . . But who'd think a person giving up one of his jobs, just to give another fellow a square break. After all, he can use the extra money too. Lyle Hamilton, Rt. 2, Box 468, . Medford, Oregon.

Despite being rooted, plants are in constant end wonderful motion making fantastic and predictable movements, by the quarter-hour. The reasons for these move ments are just as manifold as the plant's needs. In most, three complicated adjustments to light go on simultaneously: the stems reach toward light; leaves turn broadside to it; roots push away from it. . : . The most dramatic movements are made by the stems; the'most frequent by the flexible leaves. (Underground, roots and rootlets are making similar adjustments, away from the light.) ' Next time you are under a tree, look up to the sky and see the beautiful interlocked pat terns its crown makes. There is nothing haphazard about this. Then, look more closely and see the beautiful mosaic the leaves make. See how wonderfully pieced together the mosaic is, detail by detail, throughout the entire tree so that each leaf captures the maximum light, Truly, it is one of the greater wonders "of the plant kingdom. Taken on a smgle plane, the pattern can be more readily grasped. So next time, study your English ivy and see. doesn't , the placement of the leaves perhaps even explain their notchings? Besides finding their place in the sun, leaves are constantly changing from horizontal to ver tical changmg their position at the time of maximum bright ness, . as happens with many members of the pea family. Light can be too intense and do them harm. And in changmg position, they, turn a straight edge to the sun. Another family of plants. growing in the brilliantly-lighted prairies, makes, that adjustment to light permanently they set their leaves in a permanent north and south position, and appropriately are called the compass plants. Change in Midwinter . In some evergreen leaves, not ably the rhododendron, the ad justment is different there the leaves change from the drooping vertical to the hori zontal; even in midwinter. . Stems, we said, turn toward the light but not always. The ivy pushes away from the light this action flattens the stem up against the wall where its holding discs can secure an at tachment. As a result, ivy grows into porches, wmdows, and un der shingles and tiles, alas. As well, English ivy responds to another stimulus touch. The climbing roots grow out only a tnose places . wnere contact is felt, and thereby effects a major economy: they only grow exac' ly Amere tney can best serve the vine's needs. Other climbers grow tendrils long slender structures which reach far out for a support Their action seems almost reasoned the tendrils sweep the air in long slow courses until they touch some hard object such as a stem they curl about it three or four tunes, thus obtaining a vice-like grip which holds the vine firmly even in strong wmds and per mits still further ascent to stake out its claim for light, i Test it for yourself. Rub one side of a tendril , with a pencil. and it will follow within a few mmutes, winding completely around the pencil. .'But if you break the contact too quickly, me xenam win again straighten out. . 4 Flowers Also Turn Flowers, too, turn toward the light: but with them, the show- ons, It is another reason. Their purpose is to turn their bright coronas toward the day's soot- ugni, xne sun, so tney can be seen by their cherished audience. xne insects. As a rule, fruits are power- iuiiy lnainerent to light. As tney become ripe, they adver tise their wares with bright coiors contrasting to their back. ground, sweet-tasting flesh, and attracting odors. Their sole pur pose is to have their seeds car ried away and buried where they wan reproduce. But one cliff growing plant uses the sun to acnieve its ends. The little cliff dwelling vine, Linaria cymbal- ana ot jLurope, may turn its flowers to the sun but it sends its ripening seed-capsules away from the sun. Why? That movement pushes its seed capsules against the cliff, and in moving about some- wnai Like the tendril, they push into crevices and the seeds are thus placed into position for starting a new plant in their favorite habitat instead of fall ing to the foot of the cliff.
