Back Stairs: Florida Makes Bid for Ike
By MERRIMAN SMITH
UP Whit House Writer
Denver (U.R) Backstairs
at the temporary White House:
The White House is being
flooded by mail from Florida
chambers of commerce, recom
mending their specific localities
tor President Eisenhower's con
' valescence.
Save the postage, men. Jf the
President decides to go South
aftejra period of rest in Gettys
burg, Pa., the site will be select
ed quitCj- quietly and the public
won't know about it until about
the time the President moves in.
Up at Fraser, Colo., where
the President spent a good bit
of time this summer, the town's
leading restaurant, Clayton's, is

distributing handbills for the
Eisenhower Museum and Home
at Abilene, Kan.
Some of the Washington re
porters assigned to the tempor
ary White 'House drove up to
Fraser the other day to talk to
some of the President's friends
on the western slope of the Rock
ies. .
The people of Fraser were
openly depressed by the Presi
dent's illness. They, wonder
whether he'lf ever pe able to
visit them again and patrol St.
Louis creek with his trout rod.
The pretty brunet wife of Col.
Byron E. Pollock, chief cardio
logist at Fitzsimons Army hos
pital where jthe President is a
patient, says that as a result of
the busy days around the hos
pital she is a "part-time widow."
"I never know when Byron's
coming home to dinner," she
says. '
This goes for a lot more peo
ple than Mrs. Pollock. The en
tire medical and office staff
around the President can't go
to dinner with any sense of se
curity until they know he's bed
ded down for the night.
In addition to being an ardent
ice skater, Sherman Adams,' for
mer governor of New Hamp
shire, also loves to ski. Snow on
the nearby Rockies leads him to
believe that he'll be able to get
in a ski session before the Pres
ident returns to Washington.
Portland Council
Rejects Delta Park
Portland (U.R) Portland's
Exposition Recreation commis.
sion today renewed its search
for a suitable location for an

approved by voters last year.

turned down by a 3-2 vote a
commission request to turn over
the city-owned Delta Park site
to the commission, for use as a
center site. The action, in effect,
rejected the commission's selec
tion of a site.
Voting against the proposed
transfer were commissioners
Stanley W. Earl, William A.
Bowes and Nathan A. Boody.
Mayer Fred L. Peterson and
commissioner Ormand R. Bean
voted, in favor of the proposal.

officers were noting shortages
not only in skilled and semi
skilled lines but in late harvests
and other operations. More po
tato pickers were needed in cen
tral Oregon. Pear and apple
pickers were in demand around
Hood River. Willamette valley
points were asking for help in
gathering a late filbert crop.
Manufacturing jobs eased off
slightly last month, mainly be
cause of a drop of 2000 in lumber
and logging from August high
of 92,400.
Food Processing Up
Food processing picked up
800 to 23,300, lowest September
total since the end of World War
II. Construction also declined
to below the 1952 and 1953 levels
but remained higher than a year
ago during the labor dispute in
wood products. Most of the
building drop was in the Willam
ette valley. Small gains were
shown in ship repairing, machin
ery manufacturing and paper
mills. Trade, service and gov
ernment made the best all
around gains.
Claims, for unemployment in
surance started the usual ' fall
rise but were well below com
parable figures in the past three
years. Only 8082 asked compen
sation during the third week of
October, compared with 13,751
last year.
