    Lausche Given Little Nomination
Chance in Poll Among
Br LYLE C. WILSON
United Press Correspondent
"Washington U.P.) A nation
wide United Press poll of state
level Democratic politicians in-
d i c a t es that
Gov. Frank J.
Lausche of
Ohio at this
time is no
more than a
rem ote possi
bility for his
party's 1956
preside ntial
nomination.
The United
Lyle C. Wilson Press polled
Democratic governors and Dem
ocratic state chairmen reaching
all but one governor and four
chairman, excluding Lausche
himself.
Of 25 governors and 44 state
chairmen, only two individuals
made Lausche their first choice
for the Democratic presidential
nomination. They were State
Chairman N. B. Carstarphen,
Louisiana, and State Chairman
George Sandlin, Texas.
Carstarphen said: "As of to
day I would say Lausche is my
first choice because he is a con
servative Democrat."
' Sandlin said: "Lausche would
be my first choice at the mo
ment. However, I think that his
chances are equally good as a
dark horse because the three po
tential candidates now in the
news will be deadlocked and the
uninstructed and favorite son
delegates will probably back a
Yugoslav Economic
Situation Studied
Belgrade, Yugoslavia (U.R)
The ruling Socialist Alliance to
day began a detailed study of
the nation's economic situation
at the urging of President Tito
who scolded the whole country
for letting itself get into a fi
nancial mess.
Tito delivered the reprimand,
directed toward all parts of the
Yugoslav economy, in an hour-
.long speech Sunday to the exec
utive committee of the Socialist
Alliance which includes all of
the most influential leaders of
the country.
He promised that "strict ad
ministrative measures" will be
introduced to curb the worst
abuses. But he said a campaign
of education and checking was
needed more than mere govern
ment intervention.
He said the Socialist Alliance
and the Communist Party, many
of whose members he charged
were responsible for the econom
ic troubles, must take the lead in
such a campaign.

stands out at the moment."
The governors and chairmen
were asked this question:
"How would you rank Gov.
Lausche as your choice for the
Democratic presidential nomina
tion, first, second, third or
fourth?"
No Support Among Governors
Fourteen governors said they
preferred not to make such a se
lection. None picked Lausche
as among his first four choices.
One governor said he would
rank Lausche lower than fourth
choice. Several avoided any
ranking but said they thought
the governor of Ohio was a fine
fellow.
The polling developed little
support for Lausche among his
fellow governors. The chairmen
were more friendly although 22

Builder's Venturfc ...
It was some 20 years ago when
an Albany, Oregon buildin con
tractor read an article on a mod
est home that the then contro
versial modern architect, Frank
Lloyd Wright, had designed for a
Wisconsin newspaper man. The
Albany builder was induced by
the description and pictures to
inquire for working drawings
and specifications. He got copies
of them and permission to use
them by paying a fee of S450,
thought of as a tidy sum in those
days. The contractor built the
house, to seir for $7,300 (1935
dollars).
One summer day of 1937 I ar
rived at Albany to lend a hand
in local promotion of the low
cost home of lumber. The con-'
tractor showed us his Frank
Lloyd Wright house. '
"I couldn't begin to sell it," he
said. "But my wife took kindly
to it. We moved in ourselves, and
we like it fine. But it is prob
ably 20 years ahead of its time."
Wood Plus ...
What I remember most is that
the ceiling and roof deck of the
one-floor dwelling was a solid
pack of two by fours that .'ex
tended on edge, from a central
fireplace and load-bearingr unit.
The solid four-inch deck jutted
away out from the window walls
of the yard side of the house,
providing a shelter for outdoor
living.
The memory revives here in
the old boom-pond shack as I
dilly-dally with my 1909 Model
Oliver Visible Typewriter. For
the life of me, I can't recall the
contractor's name. Maybe it's in
my files. These here files now
are kept in the bottom of the
wood-box. When I want to look
up something I have to take the
chunks out first, pile them on
the floor, then pry and poke
around in the mess of old papers,
bark crumbs and slivers in the
box. Commonly I quit soon, give
up, and stack the wood back in
place.
So I can only wonder about
that Frank Lloyd Wright house
in Albany as it may be today and
imagine that the two by fours
are enduring, good for a century.
BEER, MONEY TAKEN
New York (U.R) Samuel Arn
old told police that two men
entered his delicatessen early
Sunday carrying a hamper and
told his wife to fill it with cans
of beer. When she hesitated,
Arnold said, the men pulled
guns and ordered her to empty
the cash register as well. They
got away with a hamperful of
beer and S300.
Now maybe one of the Beaver
Lab lads will stop by in Albany
and have a new look at the ac
tual situation. They are the nos
iest bunch in the Northwest. I'm
sure they'd like to find out for
themselves how a Frank Lloyd
Wright house, built in Albany
20 years ago, is making out, with
its remarkably unusual features
of wood construction.
The Beaver Lab
All this reminds me of a won
derfully illustrated article in the
current "W o o d ' Preserving
News" on the Oregon Forest
Products Laboratory at Corval
lis. It tells how the program was
authorized by the Oregon legis
lature in 1941, for development
as a cooperative project of the
State Board of Forestry and the
OSC School of Forestry.- The
task before it was basically to
do research and experiment in
uses for woods and mill left
overs sawdust, bark, shavings,
edgings, planer ends to promote
uses of new products of the kind,
and to improve methods of dry
ing and treating structural wood.
.'. This rousing story of the Bea
ver Lab's contributions spot
lights, of course, the great work
done on seasoning and treating
problems.
The great Frank Lloyd Wright
is but one of the modern homes
architects who are designing in
the beam, post and decking
woods of the Douglas fir region.
This is not only because of the
natural properties of these
woods but because of ihe values
that have been added to' them by
today's timber engineering and
wood chemistry by the work of
such institutions as the Oregon

Pope Meditates
On Life of Christ;
New Data on Vision
Vatican City U.R) Pope
Pius XII prayed and meditated
on the life of Christ today in
this anniversary week of his re
ported vision and his near fatal
collapse.
The week began with an ac
count Sunday in the unofficial
Vatican City newspaper Osser
vatore della Domenica of fur
ther details of the Pope's vision.
The article did not contradict
any details of the original story
published in the Italian maga
zine Oggit but added new infor
mation, answered certain ques
tions asked by the Italian press
and attacked cynics.
Mysterious Voice',
The newspaper said a myste
rious voice told the Pope on
Dec. 1 he would have a vision
and that the vision appeared the
following day, at dawn 12
hours before his collapse.
The newspaper, in clearing up
the confusion over the time of
the vision, answered the doubts
of Italian newspapers which had
said the Pope was. in critical
condition at the time of the vi
sion. Asservatore della Domenica
said the Pope was alert of mind
and said no one was in the room
with the Pope at the time be
cause his collapse and crisis did
not come until the next day.
Pope 'Grieved'
It also said the Pope was
"grieved" by the disclosure of
the vision almost a year later in
an Italian magazine.
The version in Osservatore
della Domenica was presumed
to have been approved by the
Pope himself. It appears in the
Dec. 4 edition but was published
textually in II Quotidiano, the
Rome daily organ of the Italian
Catholic Action organization.
The Pooe Sunday appeared
before a cheering crowd of 15.
000 pilgrims and Romans in St.
Peters Square while an over
flow crowd of 5.000 jammed the
Hall of Benedictions and adjoin
ing rooms in the Vatican palace
for a general audience, the
Pope's last before Christmas.
