o o o Washin o o Nixon Provides Ample Fodder lor Political Gossip Mongers in gton V LYLE C. WILSON TJniioji Press Correspondent Washington U.R) Political gossip is the fodder upon which Washington delights to feed: The month of November turned up some juicy snacks, most ly involving Vice-President Richard M. Nixon. There was the Veterans Day whisper Lyle C. Wilson which had friends of Nixon a bit worried. It related that President Eisen hower had been persuaded to ease off on his public applause of his young vice-presidential friend. . Some gesture of White House coolness toward Nixon was recommended. And' as the whis per went, it was decided to ask former President Hoover in stead of Nixon to represent Mr. Eisenhower on Nov. 11 at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. That whisper made the din ner table circuit, a-building as it went. It was a phony, how ever. Nixon actually participat ed in the discussion leading to the eminently proper selection fcf the only living Republican ex-president to represent the Republican now in the White House. More highly seasoned was a morsel about a bit of back stab bing by a member of the White House staff. The incident took place when a representativcOof the Radio Correspondents asso ciation sought White House ad vice on the likelihood of Mr. Eisenhower attending the asso ciation's annual dinner next February. Group Wants Nixon Informed that the President probably would not be there, the radio man explained it was customary to give the President a dinner souvenir and, in his ab sence, the association would ask Nixon to receive for him. "Are you sure you will want Nixon?" the White House aide inquired. "He'll be a very con troversial figure, you know." When the radio man said he still felt that Nixon should be Mr. Eisenhower's stand-in, the White House spokesman made another pitch. "It wouldn't have to be Nixon," he argued. "Secretary of State Dulles would be much more appropriate or George Humphrey (secretary of treas--ury." Nixon has heard this one by now and is convinced it is true, which it seems to be. The vice president is considerably more than merely annoyed. His political future depends very icygely on White House .lavor. There was noGindication that Nixon Winced, however, when former President Truman was quoted this week as calling him a . He probably wasn't much surprised, either. Truman Rejects Nixon Nixon can recall the truthful if gossipy item of some months ago when Mr. Truman visited CapitolHill and the Senate chamber. Mr. Truman let it be known through a member of his party that he had no interest in entering the Senate chamber to be welcomed by the vice-presi-ment, who normally would be presiding there. Discreet inquiries informed Mr. Truman that Nixon was not presiding at the moment. He was, in fact, out of the country. The former president happily strode into the chamber for a gay and noisy welcome. NJxon figures in much of Washington's gossipy chit chat because he is exactly what the RIBUNE Second Section MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1955 Pages 1 to 10 an Original Contribution to RELIEF OF co PAIN 'SUtIN It v jost, ffrxfrv trtatmemi hr pais rene!ot a tw.

Central - Dial 3-5371 Gloria Swahson Would Have Hard Time Saying Where, She Was on Particular Day By GLORIA SWANSON Written for the United Press Kome (.U.K.) it I were on a witness stand and asked where I was on the night of the 16th of May, June, July, August, Sep tember, I would make a very bad witness for myself. I have o White House spokesman de scribed a controversial figure. His Democratic enemies some times lack words to express their hatred of the vice-presi dent and build up considerable blood pressure before adequate language comes.O ( Blood pressure is likely to go higher ,beforf)the next carripaign ends. Mr. Truman has an nounced that he'll be in there giving 'em hell again and, of course, Nixon will,be a topman on the Republican side. been travelling so fast and furi ously the last seven months that I, no doubt, have given the ap pearance of a flying saucer. I have only had brief visits in Naples, Florence, Venice, Turin and Milan, making Rome my headquarters.. However, I did have a month ir) London and two in Paris. Loathing to live in hotels, I had a darling house when in London and two, different apart ments in Parish And in a few days I hope to be tucked away in a beautiful apartment over looking one of the oldest church es in Rome, which is just below the hill on which Rome was first founded by Romulus and Remus in 753 B.C. Although I have never lived in anything but -a hotel in Rome, still I have the feeling of going "home" from the moment I boarded the train in Paris. The Discussion A discussion arose at lunch eon the second day I was here about what makespne city more desirable than another. An Ital ian present wanted to knovQwhy I preferred Rome to Paris. I agreed with him that there was nothing to compare with the awesome beauty of the Champs Elysees at night, even in the rain as I had last seen it, but that brick and mortar no matter how beautiful or historical was only a background for a people: That a rlice seemed to have a sort of personality. In the case of Paris which I had always known as a gay city because its people had a genuine gaiety, it now seemed to have a personality that had taken on a kind of "morning after" grouch no longer theook of the gay mistress of the world but a sad look of a Toulouse Lautrec gal. Both Expensive Of course, I never knew Rome before the waftas I did Paris so I don't know what changes have been made, here. But today the two places Jiave much in com mon such as two prices for ev erything. You can find your money disappearing just as fast here.OAnd that a direct answer to a direct question is not pos sible. Both "yes" and "no" us ually mean "maybe." The reason for my feeling more at home here is that, like all Americans, I have a crazy sense of humor. If I'm going to be "had," I like it done with a smile, q ' The people here are still at that gay cocktail party stage. They haven't yet reached the "morning after."
