Warren Believed Not Likely To
Be GOP Candidate for President
By LYLE C. WILSON
United Pjess Correspondent
Washington (U.R) To put
It perhaps too bluntly, why
would a man quit a job with an
assured annual income of S46,
545.84 and the privileges of re
tiring on full
pay in a few
years?
And if this
fortunate per
son's present
job was rated
by many of
his colleagues
as the most de
sirable in the
whole world,
tyle C. Wilson wouldn't that
be another reason why he might
wanf'to keep it?
AndQf this individual already
had announced publicly that he
would not change jobs for any
thing on earth, would not the
whole circumstances of the case
suggest that he would keep it,
come what may?
The man, of course, is the
chief justice of the United States,
Earl Warren. These ponderings
are prompted by the current re
port in a well-edited national
magazine that Mr. Warren can
be had, Newsweek put it like
this:
"Chief Justice Earl Warren
will run if pressed that's the.
definite impression brought
awajr from Warren's chambers
by recent visitors including
at lrst one who is anti-Warren
and had predicted he would not
run."
Might Issue Statement
Maybe soBut the .last United
Q
Press operative who talked to
Mr. Warren quite recently,
too got it the other way
around. The chief justice said
with considerable vigor that he
would not return to politics as
Republican presidential' nom
inee or anything else. He added
that he thought he might have
to issue another public state
ment saying just that if the War
ren boom failed to subside.
The chief justice deflated a
boom some months ago when
polls showed him far and away
the Republican and independent
voters' favorite if President Ei
senhower did not run. Mr. Ei
senhower's illness inflated the
boom all over again, and Mr.
Warren has been trying to punc
ture it . by authorizing friends
to utter his denials.
More Than Money Involved
There is much more, of course,
than money involved in any de
cision' Mr. Warren might make.
Money might not influence him
at all, in fact. But it is true
that the young man who began
his political career back there
in 1919 as clerk to a California
legislative committee is coming
only now to know what it means
to be secure and financially in- i
dependent.
Mr. Warren drew $25,000 a
year and fringe benefits during
his 10 years as governor of Cali
fornia just prior to joining the
court. But he had three daugh
ters and any father of daughters
can figure that out.
Limousine and Chauffer
He draws $35,000 a year as
chief justice plus California pen
sion which totes up to $11,545.84
a year. The United States tosses
in a limousine and chauffeur,
and there's $5,000 for life for
Mrs. Warren if the chief justice
dies in office. After 10 years on
the bench that would be in
1963 Mr. Warren could retire
at full pay.
All of that is a lot to give up
for a return to politics, especial
ly when many a lawyer can and
does truthfully say that most
members of the legal profession
would rather be chief justice
than president. Moreover, there
is the question whether it is
ethical for a political party to
borrow a candidate from the
high court. Charles Evans
Hughes left the court for the
1916 Republican . presidential
nomination and later was re
turned to the high bench with
promotion to chief justice by
President Hoover.
Not Good Precedent
So there would be precedent
for Mr. Warren, but not neces
sarily good precedent.
All of these factors shrink in
importance, however, beside the
point which Mr. Warren makes
to clinch his statement that he
will not be a substitute for Mr.
Eisenhower. It is that he knows
the dispute about segregation
desegregation would instantly
become a terrifically personal is
sue if he were to return to
politics.
It does seem as of now that
Mr. Warren means it when he
he says he will not run. But,
of course, men have changed
their minds. Mr. Warren is 64
years old. . .

Man Credits 107 Years
To Wafer Before Meals
Boise U.R) Anton Gordon
celebrated his 107th birthday
quietly Saturday and credited
his longevity to drinking two
quarts of water daily "one hour
before each meal" in order to
"wash my digestive machinery
clean . . ."
Gordon, who was born in
Worth County, Iowa, on Dec. 3,
1848, said diet was the main rea
son for his long life. He said he
drinks a quart of warm water
before each of his two meals a
day and nothing while he eats
"not even a glass of milk."
"This washes rriy digestive ma
chinery clean," he said, "and
when the food comes into a
clean receptacle it is digested
quickly, easily and perfectly."
Gordon, a law and medical
school graduate who is active as
a notary public, has been a
bachelor all his life. He calls
marriage a "lottery" and "I'm
not a gambler."

House Investigates Navy 'Consultants'
Washington (U.R) The case
of a woman who was paid $25 a
day by the Navy to "organize"
Navy wives came under scrutiny
of House investigators Saturday.
She is Mrs. Mary P. Paolozzi,
national president of the Navy
Wives of America. She was list
ed among hundreds of other
consultants the Navy has carried
on its payroll since 1953.
"The Navy told the House gov
ernment operations committee
Mrs. Paolozzi was hired for "full
time employment as a consultant
to visit naval installations on
the east coast and promote the
growth of Navy wives clubs cur
rently functioning and to stim
ulate the organization of clubs
in those areas where none exist
at present."
The case came to light as the
committee pressed a new in
vestigation of the administra
tion's use of dollar-a-year men
(WOCS) and special consultants.
Mrs. Paolozzi was hired as a
$10-a-day WAE (when actually
employed) in 1954 and later was
raised to $25 a day. She collect
ed $870 in pay, plus $262 in
expenses.
The committee, headed by
Rep. William L. Dawson (D-Ill.)
has asked federal agencies for a
list of all WAE's and WOC's
employed since January 1953. It
also has asked for a list of all
industry advisory committees
and an explanation of their func
tions, together with special pub
lic relations and management
consultants.
