Downstairs the linotypes are clicking as usual, and
the press is running also
usual atmosphere today does not prevail.
For after a gallant fight for over 6 long months
against overwhelming odds, E. C. Ferguson, or
"Fergie" as he was generally known, has been forced
to put a "30" to his final copy after nearly 30 years
of capable and faithful service as Managing Editor of
The Maii Inbune.
As a result the atmosphere of the organization up
stairs and down is one of genuine mourning and
sorrow. It is, for all, hard to realize "Fergie" has gone.

Ferg had strong feelings and sympathies, but he
was not of the sentimental,
it he was conservative,
pitching and always had his feet very much on the
ground. He was a practical, capable administrator
and incidentally a shrewd judge of news values and
an equally shrewd judge of people and business
matters.
v. .
THOSE who mistook his kindly somewhat retiring
manner, however, for the weakness of an "easy
touch" were due for a rude awakening.
Underneath that quiet and restrained exterior
was a ready wit, a clever, biting come-back, and
plenty of what certain fastidious commentators
like to call "intestinal fortitude." (His old associates
in the Legion and the Crater club would testify to
this.) "
"Fergie". never looked for trouble or a fight, but
once in either, and he could be depended upon to give
an excellent account of himself.
His outstanding quality, however, we would place
as "LOYALTY."
The present writer knew more about this charac
teristic than "Ferg" ever imagined. For in so many
years of close association, some differences as far as
editorial policy are concerned were sure to develop.
But few outside of the immediate MT family ever
suspected it, as far as Fergie was concerned. In his
position as "second-in-command" he had to act often
as sort of shock-absorber to protect the sanctum sanc
torum from mob action. But he never complained, and
he never failed to defend the ship and its commander
even when privately he may have thought the indi
vidual in the pilot house was charting the wrong
course.
As for "Fergie" the Mail-Tribune was HIS paper,
in the strict Admiral Decatur sense of HIS country,
and right or wrong, Ferg could always be depended
upon to be in there swinging with both fists when any
one in his presence, launched an attack against it.

Dr. Harold M. Erlckson, state

Dr. Erickson said 297 of the
total number of cases were para

Defends Unions
To the Editor: I get disgusted
with remarks made by our sen
ators in Washington about our
union men just dirty. Every
man and woman in U.S.A. in and
out of unions, are getting better
pay and working conditions by
the Union. If we did not have
Unions we would still be work
ing 10 hours for $1. With my
past 67 years in the industrial
world I reaUy know a lot as
came up the hard way, an or
phan. A man I knew took me
in to learn the woodwork of
building all kinds of vehicles
such as buggies and wagons for
one year, pay $25, board, room
and laundry. I was lucky. You
had the chance to pay the boss
50c a day to learn a trade 62
years ago.
Then big business got going,
You. would have to work -in fac
tory, all piece work. I learned
the trade, build a vehicle, com
plete factory, you just made one
of the parts, still had to have
your own tools, and work like
you were fighting snakes 10
hours to make $1.25 to. $1.50
Then big business cut pay per
piece," then it was hell to even
make that, also raised the price
to the public, made men work
harder than ever. That is the
time unions began starting.
I quit carriage business from
Ohio, got my $5 day jii. Minner
sota. a millwright, then landed
in Portland, Ore., Oct. 2, 1900
10 hours a day for $1.50. This
state's bosses would have been
glad to hang you if and when
you used the word union.
So much of this story is my
experience from Canada to Mex
ico. This coast was neii to worn
in until we got unions. I could
write many columns about the
industrial world. I went . to
school to study architectural en
gineering, then I began t6 get
better pay, but I must say for
the 55 vears building, I have
never had one of many hundreds
of men, not one of my men, have
been hurt on all kmds of build
ings, except steel, and ships,

There are not today in our
congress any more lnteingenr
men than we have in our unions.

N CLOSING
Republican Senator Joseph
McCarthy this morning renewed
criticism of some of President
Eisenhower's advisers includ-
ng the President's brother, Dr
Milton Eisenhower. McCarthy
says the administration would
have a much better record if it
would get rid of the-Paul Hoff
mans, the Harold Stassens and
the Milton Eisenhowers. .
A YEAR or so ago, McCarthy
was a Big Bertha. Now he
doesn't even rate as a pop-gun.
So he's hollering bloody mur

tion system, the disaster worker
said the agency seeks to return
all families to their pre-flood liv
ing standard. Red Cross works
with families to determine their
-u:.i. oi living, including re
sources, liabilities and disaster
damage and listing what the
family can and cannot do alone
; "No plan is good unless the
family participates in it," she
said. Cash grants are given
those unable to sustain loans
through other agencies.
Local Economy
Local economy is assisted by
patronizing local merchants, in
cluding lurmture and grocery
stores, contractors, and other
businesses. Families are allowed
to select their dealers, after
needs are determined through
study of price lists.
Aid is available as outright
grants; maintenance costs, pur
chase of food, furniture, and
clothing; home repairs; construc
tion; and almost any other item
which will help return those
hard hit to their former status
She said, however, that it does
not mean "replacing mink
coats," but supplying warm ones

Each application is handled on
an individual and confidential
basis, with workers being care
ful not to refer a family to a
government agency when it has
not the ability to sustain further
debts.
Example of Action
An example of the agency's
quick action to return a com
munity to normality, Miss Mc
Namara reported, was setting up
of two businesses m Rogue River

given a $500 grant, although his

workers should encourage
families in need to seek Red
Cross assistance, according to
the speaker, who declared that
all have been "quite modest in
expressing needs." Many do not
understand the scope and speed
with which Red Cross works,
she said.
"Vulnerable Sites"
Asked why families are helped
to finance homes rebuilt in the
same vulnerable sites, the
worker answered that "home is
a precious thing, and no plan is
good unless it is the family
plan. '. ;r.
Members of the board com
mended Miss McNamara for her
"exceptio nally outstanding"
work in disaster relief and re
habilitation work in Jackson
county. She, in turn, paid tribute
to men and women of the Red
Cross, civil defense, courthouse
staff, banks, press, radio and sur
vey teams.
Further commendations to the
groups were made by Eugene
Thorndike, chairman; executive
secretary, Mrs. Helen Wilson,
and vice-chairman of disaster re
lief, Mrs. O. A. Eden.
Mrs. Eden especially mention
ed the work of civil defense di-.
rector, Maj. Gen. Joseph Hicks,
and other volunteers in the
agency.
Describes Work
Mrs. Wilson, who has more
than 5 years of Red Cross 'ex
perience, said she had "never
seen such an outstanding exam
ple of working together." She
also described the past two
weeks' work in the Red Cross
office, where 900 wires have
been handled, each requiring
personal verification by Red
Cross personnel.
Among volunteers and board
members introduced were E. S.

Babson Talks Chances
Of I Ice's Reelection
Washington The most im
portant comment in my last
week's Forecast for 1956 was
this statement:
"If no unfore
seen event hap
pens, President
Eise n h o w e r
will be re-nom
inated, and re
elected in
1956."
I am no poli
tician, but I do
Boger W. Babson t0 be an
honest statistician. Hence, first
let me dispose of the question
of age. The President will be
66 in 1956. This would make
him 70 by the close of his sec
ond term. His rivals, in both the
Republican and Democratic par
ties, say he is "too. old to run
again." Yet, Warren of Califor
nia is 64.
Let us discuss first the possi
ble Republican candidates. My
first choice would be Vice Presi
dent Nixon, who is an ideal man,
at an ideal age of 42. Secretary
of the Treasury George Humph
rey, my second personal choice,
is 65, but because of his success
as a constructive businessman, I
doubt if he could be elected.
Next in order I would select
Thomas E. Dewey, former gov
ernor of New York. He probably
is the ideal age, namely 53; but
the party would be loath to
nominate one who had been de
feated twice, even though he is
an excellent administrator. My
fourth - choice would be. Secre
tary .of State Dulles; but he is
two years older than Mr. Eisen
hower! The other active Repub
lican aspirants are Senator Wil
liam ' Knowland of California,
47, Presidential Assistant Harold
Stassen of Pennsylvania, who is
48, and Governor Christian Her
ter of Massachusetts, who is 60.
Now let us apply statistics to
the possible Democratic rivals.
If the nominating convention
were to be held this month, I am
sure that ex-governor Stevenson
of Illinois (55 years old), candi
date four years ago, would get
the Democratic nomination. If
Eisenhower should not run
again, Stevenson would have a
good chance of election; but not
against Eisenhower as a candi
date. This is in my humble opin
ion. As for Governor Harriman of
New York, who is 64, he surely
could be featured as a "male
factor of great wealth" more
than could Mr. Humphrey. Har-
ard Bartus, Shady Cove Red
Cross workers.
Also discussed at the meet
ing was the coming spring drive
oi Ked Cross for Jackson county
outside the United Crusade area.
Sixteen fund raising teams have
already planned for the drive.

riman probably never "earned a
dollar in his life." He inherited
his millions from his father, who
was America's greatest railroad
giant; while Humphrey started
with nothing and earned his
present wealth through develop
ing coal, iron, and other mines.
Let me say, however, that Harri
man has probanly had the best
training and experience for the
Presidency of any possible Dem
ocratic candidate. I have great
respect for his knowledge and
for his contacts in national and
world politics. He is a "New
Dealer" which would help him
with labor and probably with
the great American public. Sta
tistically the country is. Demo
cratic. Republicans slfeuld not
forget this in their enthusiasm
for Ike.
Among others commonly sug
gested, irrespective of party, are
Kefauver (52), and Clement (35),
both of Tennessee, Dirksen (60)
of Illinois, Meyner (47) of New
Jersey, Stratton (41) of Illinois,
Meyner (47) of New Jersey,
Stratton (41) of Illinois, Syming
ton (54) of Missouri, and Wil
iams (44) of Michigan. I will
also add that Ex-President Tru
man, at- 71, may be a candidate.
So much for statistics.
Consider Photography
This is an age of photographs.
The .successful magazines such
as Life and Look are almost 85
per cent photographs. Television
is 96 per cent, the movies are
98 per - cent photographs. Ike
takes wonderful photos and-
his smile alone is worth
millions of votes. But, photo
graphy is even used by us statis
ticians to forecast conditions. We
can often predict what a man
will do by studying the "seng"
in which he allows his photo to
be taken. Consider the follow
ing as evidence that Ike and
Mrs. Dowd want to be in the
White House four more years,;
irrespective of what Mamie may
want.
If 'Ike did not want to run
again, he would have been
wheeled onto the airplane which
took him from Denver to Wash
ington, in a wheel chair. This
would have helped him in his de
sire for four years of quiet life
at Gettysburg. But no, he ran up
the airplane ramp like a young'
colt and waved to the people. He
did the same upon arrival at
Washington and Gettysburg.
The plan of his managers is
