(Powers Talk Disappears in OTiciaH Discussions By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Correspondent Washington (U.R) Talk of formal delegation of presidential powers, which had been dimin ishing since White H o use chief of staff Sherman Adams get back to town, could not be heard at all. today. And, signifi cantly, Adams flew to Denver trie C. WUsaA ud shop as White House chief administra tive officer. Denver reported 1H tyTJ to initial a couple of routine but essential documents $v Mtk'fiend. TIbat iust bout wraps up the dlegtion of powers idea unless th President fails or some un fonJeeOn ogjamity afflicts the na tion eithin the time limit of bis expected normal recovery. That does not mean that he already is chairborne or that he is likely to be a second term candidate. No Shift Expected But the period of his con valescence now is expected to pass without any formal and basic shift of the high privileges and duties of the presidential of fice. White House Press Secre tary James C. Hagerty probably wishes now he had not permitted eager newsmen to corner him last Sunday into a statement that the Justice Department would be asked for an opinion on the exercise of presidential powers. He said then an opinion en ex ercise of powers was iii the works. Adams and Atty. Gen. igerbert Brownell Jr. were eut of the country. Adams was beck Monday in time to huddle with Vice President Richard M. Nixon and Acting Atty. Gen. William P. Rogers. From that conference came word by indirection that no such action was urgent and might not ever be needed. Hagerty, on second thought, chimed ,in from Denver with supporting data. Returning the next day from Spain, Brownell missed the party line with a statement that the matter of delegation of powers was under study and an opinion would be coming up. Brownell quickly jot the word, and amended his remarks away from any quick opinion Rogue River Group To Attend Conclave Rogue River Five students and oVice-Principal Bill Hunter will attend the regional confer ence for student councils from Rogue River High school Mon day. The one-day conference will be at Reedsport. Bill Weaver, student body president, will head the Rogue River delegation. Others include Myrne Towse, student body sec retary; Gary Phillips, senior class president; Lawrence Wag ner, junior class president, and Fred Hopper, sophomore class president. en the grave issue Hagerty had raised two days before. Sevreeel Cauiieuc Say From several days of cautious moments here came the present set-up with Nixon acting for the President as front man in Wash ington. Adams will be the man closest to the ailing President and the arbiter of what must have his attention subject of course to medical advice. Policy statements are more likely to come through Nixon in Washington than directly : from Adams in Denver, but they will be cleared or originated there. The Vice President said Thurs day he. would remain in Wash ington until Mr. Eisenhower is able to return. That cancels his projected autumn visit to the Middle East. He called Adams the logical choice to head up the Denver office, whioh has been under discussion for several days. "Let the facts speak for them selves," was Nixon's answer to a question whether he would be top man in Washington.

A Neho's Worth of ... - Comment On This and That Washington U.R) Graham Quesada, a former officer in the Navy has been in the Far East many times,,! By HARMAN W.

But "Bud," as he is known to" his old Navy buddies and with the boys in the civilian personnel in the Military Sea Transpor just can't get used to ways of the Oriental. , Take checking into a house or a hotel over yonder. "You shed your clothes and get ready for a nice bath," he told me, "And then you look around and all of your duds have disappeared. Next day you look again and everything is clean, brushed and put on hang ers and in drawers. All without your asking." Lady With Brush ,But the thing which still shocks the veteran of World War I and II is the business of taking a bath. You get in the little old tub in Japan and start to soak and read a. good book, and then there is the patty-pat of soft permit shoes. "I never can remember," he said, "many baths as I have tak en there, that a nice lady is com ing in to scrub my back. She is a paid Japanese servant, wnose duty it is to wash down the backs of guests. The servant just rubs away with a brush with a long handle on it, and you have to watch out for stray bristles. When she is through, she bows and goes away." Bud is as tough as they come even at age 57. But other things about the Far East bother him, but not enough to keep him from thinking about going back after his three-month leave is up. Traffic Problems Things like the business of driving in traffic in Japan. - "You can't see where you are going," he said. "Japanese wom en ride all over the streets, rain or shine, with their umbrellas up. Each has a little Japanese riding in the jump seat to the rear. And a mere American in an autmobile can't tell where he is going unless he can see through the big blooming flow ered sprinkle stick. Japanese oiKes nave no rear-view mir rors." . Bud, by the way, bought a new car on his way back from Washington. He was amazed to find that the District of Colum bia was interested in the fact that he still held a 1915 driver's Officials did suggest it might be a good idea for him to apply for an up to date one, even though the old one had no ex piration date on it. .0 fcfc LOOKING FOR A our gain Place Store tool HERE'S 3 HOT SPECIALS FOR o SATURDAY.

AT E. 10th AND FRONT GOP Strategists Yision Active Aid During Campaign Washington U.R) Some Re publicans, heartened by Presi dent Eisenhower's medical prog ress, boosted. him today as the No. 1 GOP campaigner even if he does not run tor reelection next fall. Some GOP strategists believe, of course, that Mr. Eisenhower will recover from his heart sei zure and seek reelection. They are encouraged in that view by the hopeful word from the Pres ident's bedside. Political Tonic But even among party profes sionals who still think the Presi dent must take himself out of the tuning, the medical bulletins from Denver have been a politi cal tonic. They now see the Pres ident on the road to a recovery which will let him give a big boost to the man who becomes the GOP presidential candidate. These republicans see Mr. Ei senhower on television actively urging the voters to support the GOP candidate so that he can finish out the "Eisenhower cru sade." They believe a series of speeches of that kind could give a tremendous lift to the Repub lican campaign. And these strategists point out that such campaigning in the era of nationwide television need not. be' taxing at all. They think Mr Eisenhower wjll be able to do it by campaign time without any risk to his health. Committe Going Ahead . '. ' Republican National Chair man Leonard W. Hall has said on. several occasions since the President's heart attack that the national committee is going right ahead . with its . campaign plans. He has stated the Eisen hower program will be the basis for the campaign in any case. GOP strategists point out that a campaign based on Mr. Eisenhower's program would re quire a candidate who has a rec ord of supporting that program. That probably would make even larger the large voice the Presi dent would have in selecting any candidate to run in his stead.

Two fam ilies fled, one by leaping from a window, last night when fire gutted two apartments located above a paint and wallpaper store in north Portland. Paul Lindahl said he and his wife were cleaning Venetian blinds when he turned around and "saw an electrical flash jump out." Moments later the room was in flames. Lindahl awak ened Mrs. Richard L. Couchman in an adjoining apartment. Mrs. Couchman and her two children were forced to leap to safety.
