MAIL TRIBUNE
Risks of the Presidency
Many years ago the suggestion was made in this
department that there should be two Presidents in
stead of one. ' -
The idea then was there should be a chief presi
dent and an assistant, the former would assume
the demanding and important duties, the latter
would be a sort of executive public-relations officer
to take care of the speech-making, hand shaking,
chicken stew eating and baby kissing. .
The suggestion, of course, was made facetiously,
with no idea of it being taken seriously and as far as
we know, it never was. .
DUT today that idea would not be so funny.
In fact the Mail Tribune agrees completely with
former President Hoover that the presidential duties
and responsibilities have so sensationally increased
particularly since the. first World War, that there
should be an Assistant President to take over the
numerous routine and less vital duties, which consume"
so much time and energy, and thus allow the occupant
of the White House, to have not only more time for
the vital matters of state but more time for a desirable
amount of fresh air relaxation and exercise.
According to the latest
however, this idea is not
a presidential election in the offing there are so many
more important matters to consider, more important
to the politicians at least, and for that matter, prob
ably to a majority of the people.
THIS is too bad.
We feel not only out
chief executive whoever
gard for the people of the
welfare, the office of the
dered less literally a killing one than it is.
Look at the record:
For the past half century, only one President has
enjoyed his normal life expectancy. That one is for
mer President Hoover.
Former President Truman is the only "ex" whc
promises to . make as good a record Harry has no
nerves and is hardy pioneer stock. He may live to be
100. v
AS FOR the others, the
Roosevelt. There is no reason to doubt it shortened the
lives of Theodore Roosevelt and Calvin Cpolidge.
- Let the life . insurance . actuaries . figure .up that
casualty percentage. It is certainly a high one.
.But the responsibilities', the inescapable strains
and stresses today are far greater than ever before,
and there is every indication they will increase as time
goes on. ' . .
The difficult decision facing President Eisen
hower today is only added evidence. There seems no
doubt on his part or that of his doctors, that the heart
attack he suffered was the direct result of the punish
ing strain physically he had to take because of the
overwhelming demands of the office.
He apparently has made a remarkable recovery
and our expectation and hope is he will run again,
but no informed source believes for a moment he can
do this, as the presidential duties are now defined,
without taking a real risk, it might properly be called
a "calculated risk," but if some such change as Mr.
Hoover suggested were adopted, the risk would prob
ably be reduced to the absolute minimum.
This should be done.
But our prediction is until the people of the coun
try more clearly sense the dangers of the situation and
become more demanding, whilethe politicians in both
parties become less selfish and grasping, nothing of a
constructive or beneficial nature in this direction will
be done. R.W.R.
Norblad's Speed Limit
Proposal Encouraged
. By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Washington Citizens by the
hundreds are encouraging Rep.
Walter Norblad (R-Ore.) to go
through with
his proposal to
legally limit
the speed po
tential of au
tomobiles to 70
MPH .in the
name of high
way safety.
In the . two
weeks since
a. Robt. smith tne uregon
lawmaker announced his idea,
letters have been "pouring into his
office from all over the country
and aU but two thus far have
favored putting mechanical gov
ernors .on cars to hold them un
der a national speed limit. ,
Disturbed By Toll
Most of those who have writ
ten the congressman are dis
tressed by the. high death toll
on American highways today,
especially- the record number of
fatalities over the recent Christ
mas holiday week end.
The idea is catching on with
other lawmakers, who have been
keeping in touch with Norblad's
office to see what the public re
action has been. Norblad hasn't
actually introduced a bill on the
issue as yet, but- one is in the
drafting stage. It would exclude
such vehicles as ambulances and
fire and police cars.''
A North Carolina resident
called it "one of the finest
pieces of legislation to come
from Washington in many
moons." A New Jersey man pre
dicted its .adoption would "cut
the appalling death toll in half."

When a Terre Haute, Ind.,
civics teacher mentioned it in
class, his students .pulled out
their note pads and' dashed off
letters of encouragement to Nor
blad. But from a Missouri high
school lad came one of the few
objections on the grounds that
extra power is needed to pull
out of tight spots and avoid col
lisions. "I would be dead if your law
kas in effect," wrote the stu
dent, relating that his family had
avoided a crash by turning on
the added power at a vital mo
ment. An upstate New Yorker told
of two boys in her neighborhood
who take pride in racing then
cars every Saturday night on a
nearby country road, the one
claiming he regularly hit 115
MPH in his Ford. .
Drivers Take Dare
A Massachusetts man respond
ed to Norblad's complaint against
the current emphasis on high
powered cars-. He wrote: "You
read such advertising slogans
as 'The most powerful car at the
price,' and 'Winner of the stock
car races,' or 'A gasoline to put
40 per cent more power into
your old engine' etc. The auto
industry is practically daring
the average driver to open 'er
up and see what she'U do. And
too many drivers can't take a
dare!"
A traveling salesman from
Oklahoma reported that in 45
years on the road he had driven
over a million miles without an
accident of any kind and he al
ways stayed under the prevail

A note of
"deter mined
protest" which
the Soviet gov

to Washington
over the week
end mentioned
.Charles McCann Dig Dauoons,
equipped with photographic and
radio devices which are landing
in Communist territory.
But it is evident that the pro
test really is aimed at the cam
paign conducted by American
agencies against Russia's domi
nation of Eastern Europe.
Protests Balloons
The Kremlin foUowed up its
note to the United States by pro
testing formally to West Ger
many yesterday against the
launching of propaganda bal
loons from its territory by Amer
ican agencies.
These balloons, or most of
them, are being sent up by the
American-financed Free Europe
Press. ;.-
About 350,000 of these bal
loons have been sent through the
Iron Curtain, when the wind
was right, since April, 1954.
They carry anti-Communist prop
aganda. '
In addition, radio transmitters
based in Western Germany are
transmitting a n t i - Communist
propoganda to Iron Curtain

To the : Editor: It was with
great interest that I read your
editorial of Feb. 3 on old folks,
but you didn't get in quite deep
enough. After 45 to 55 years you
can hold onto your job, but 55
years to 65 years is the time
that you slow V. down in your
work and no one wants to hire
you, even though it is work you
are able to do and the doctor
says you wiU have to work at
jobs that you can and not over
tax the heart. If you do, it will
act like President Eisenhower's
did. '
Raising a family, paying for
your home, hospital and doctor
bills have left you nothing put
aside for those intervening years
until your social security begins
to come in.

slow down on his work load,

him to resign but some are want

it a case of dog eat dog and the

An Alabamafl, conscious of
the trend toward foreign spoils

to be effective would have to
cover imported vehicles as well
as American-built cars.
No Longer Pleasure
An ' Illinois lady told the con
gressman that "driving today is
no longer the pleasure it used
to be. One is downright fearful
of planning even a week end
holiday because of the ominous
fatalities." She favored a gov
ernor to control "the cold disre
gard of human life" on the part
of auto manufacturers.
Several people who wrote
Norblad said they had tried un
successfully in the past , to get
the National Safety Council to
press for just such a speed limit
law, but. they said they got the
brushoff. The reason is that the
Council - is not . convinced that
speed is the great killer most
people believe it to be.

Matter of Fact By Jos and
EISENHOWER-EDEN:
PLUS AND MINUS
Washington Two exchanges
which took place during ' the
course of the Eisenhower-Eden
meeting sug
gest what was
and what
was not ac
complished by
the talks. The
first such ex-
change con-
cerned the
ticklish subject
of trade with
Stewart Alsop , led China.
British Foreign Minister Selwyn
Lloyd stated the British case
for relaxing the trade restric
tions, centering mostly around
the economic requirements of
Malaya and the Asiatic common
wealth countries. Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles began
to make disapproving noises,
when President Eisenhower in
tervened. There was no reason, the Pres
ident said, in effect, why the
trade restrictions should be froz
en in perpetu
ity. The bene
fits gained by
our friends
and allies by
trade with Red
China should
be weighed in
the overall bal
ance. And he
suggested a re-
joseph Aisop study of the
whole trade question with this
in mind.
Although the eventual out
come remains very much up
in the air, this Presidential in
tervention naturally pleased the
British. On other matters, like
the British dispute with . Saudi
Arabia, the. President also took
what seemed to the British a
sympathetic position, and there
were a number of issues: on
which the differences between
the Anglo - American partners
were usefully narrowed.
MOREOVER,
arifT Primo
the President
Minister Eden
got on better together than ever
before. Eden frequently remark
ed to his own people how vig
orous the President seemed, and
how weU -he handled the issues.
More important, the confer
ence was a sort of visual demon
stration of the continuing Anglo
American partnership, and such
a demonstration from time to
time is necessary and useful.
Yet the conference never did
really come to grips with the
kind of basic, underlying .differ
ences in British and American
policy which would blow the
alliance right out of the water.
Take the matter of the Chinese
offshore islands, Quemoy and
the Matsus.
Eden broached the subject,
saying that his government con
sidered the islands racially and
geographically a part of the
mainland; that the . presence of
Nationalist troops on the islands
constituted a danger to peace;
and that Chiang Kai-shek ought
to be persuaded to withdraw
them.
The President replied that
Chiang had said flatly he would
never withdraw his troops and
that they would "fight to the
last man." There was no way
Chiang could be persuaded to
withdraw, even : if the United
States wished him to do so. As
for what the United' States
would do if the Chinese Commu
nists attacked the islands, that
would have to await a decision
based on the actual situation,
if and when it arose.
.
rpHE subject was then tact
fully dropped, and it was
never referred to again. Yet
there is no issue which more
clearly involves . the . danger of
an open and almost irreparable
break between the American
and British partners. And the
danger becomes more real every
day.
On the one hand, Chiang Kai
shek himself has obviously be
come convinced that the United
States will have no choice but
to support him, if serious fight
ing over the islands begins. Espe
cially in the last week or so,
Chiang's forces have become in
creasingly aggressive. They have
been shelling the mainland op
posite the islands. They have
even been patroUing the main
estuary, which is a bit like a
hostile force patrolling the Ches
apeake Bay.
Whether or' not it is cause
and effect, Chiang's burst of
aggressiveness has followed a
visit to Formosa by Adm. Ar
thur Radford, Chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff. For their
part, the Chinese communists
have also been acting and talk
ing tough. A concentration of
plained of baUoons sent up by
"United States military organs."
Berlin's RIAS station is oper
ated by American occupation au
thorities. Radio Free Europe,
Radio Free Press and Radio Lib
eration are privately financed in
the United States.
. The Kremlin is not just hoot
ing at "military organ" balloons.
It would like to stop the entire
operation which gives hope to
East Europeans of freedom.
Stewart AIsod
landing craft has been spotted
opposite the Matsus group, and
Chinese Communist Premier
Chou En-lai has threatened to
"liberate" Formosa, "by war if
necessary."
LL this does not necessarily
mean that war over the off
shore islands is in the offing.
Before attempting any all-out
attack, the Chinese Communists
will certainly move much of
their Russian-built air force
from the north, where it is now
concentrated, down to the air
fields they have built in the
Fukien area. They have not yet
done so. Some observers be
lieve, perhaps wishfully, that
they will avoid an all-out at
tack, on the grounds that the
islands will fall to them any
way, sooner or later.
But the existing situation is
enough to suggest that Secre
tary of State John Foster Dulles'
famous doctrine of "clear warn
ing to any potential aggressor"
is not being applied with great
firmness in the Formosa area.
On the contrary, the Chinese
Communists, and the Chinese
Nationalists too for that matter,
are under constant temptation
either to ' under-estimate or to
over-estimate the American re
action. The situation is also
enough to suggest how matters
which vitally concern the Anglo-
American partnership were tact
fully disregarded at the recent
conference.

Youth Said Lacking
National Background
Tokyo (U.R) Gen. Lyman
L. Lemnitzer, U. S. Far East
commander, said Monday that
the average American youth
lacks the "background , they , re
quire to meet and overcome the
Communist ideology and techni
ques." Lemnitzer told a meeting of
the Far East Council of the Boy
Scouts of America, that he was
"deeply" concerned over the
contents of a Defense Depart
ment report on prisoners of war
in Korea.
He said the report reaches the
"sorry conclusion that these
young men were unable to reply
to statements in favor of Com
munism with arguments in fav
or of their own way of life be
cause they knew so little about
their own . country, its history
and its political beliefs."'
Amateur Uranium
Prospectors Said Best
Omaha (U.R) There's one
field, at least, in which amateurs
seem to do better than profes
sionals. J. G. McMillan, associate pro
fessor of physics at the Univers
ity of Omaha, said more than
50 per cent of the uranium
strikes in the United States have
been made by greenhorns. And
it doesn't cost much money to
try, either.
"If you have a Geiger count
er, available for $45, you can
detect radiation and a possible'
ore source," he said.
However, McMillan cautioned
amateurs not to get their hopes
too high. He said relatively little
ore is the type that pays off. He
suggested that uranium hunting
be an . avocation rather than a
vocation.

Santa Fe Train
Crew Absolved
Of Negligence
Los Angeles U.R) A coron
er's jury has ruled the Jan. 22
wreck of a Santa Fe commuter
train in Los Angeles with the
loss of 30 lives was an unavoid
able accident without criminal
negligence on the part of the
crew.
. The "blue ribbon" jury of
nine prominent Los Angeles citi
zens returned the verdict yester
day after deliberating over the
inquest case for an hour. Jury
Foreman Earl Vaughn, Bank of
America vice-president, said:
: "We find the deaths of the de
ceased accidental and no per
sons were criminally respon
sible." Engineer Frank B. Parrish, 62,
who had blamed himself "for the
dead and orphans I made," was
noticeably relieved when the
jury's verdict came, but he stat
ed he had nothing to say con
cerning the vindication. v
Various Ailments
Parrish felt he was to blame
for the two-car train , overturn
ing, on a curve because he had
blacked out moments before the
accident. . ' v
Dr. Marcus Grahan, a psychia
trist who examined Parrish, said
the' engineer over the- past 10
years has . variously ; suffered
from tuberculosis, peptic ulcers,
with perforation and p e r i-
tomtis. - .... .. '. ;
Crahan said this combination
of defects could have produced
unconsciousness or mental aber
rations of a transient nature. The
engineer, he said, could have
suffered a mental lapse some
thing like sleep walking a few
moments during which the train
raced out of control.:i
Nuclear Reactor Most
Efficient Fuel User
Omaha (U.R) A Nebraska
manufacturer, Walter E. Behlen,
an expert on fuel energy, esti
mates' that the nuclear reactor
is the most efficient user of fuel,
by many million times, ever to
be used in industry..
It's fantastic, but true, Behlen
said, that out of 11,322,000,000
kilowatt-hours of energy in a
pound of coal, man has learned
to .extract only about one kil
owatt hour. This is due to ina
bility completely to burn the
coal.
However, uranium may be
burned much more completely,
although there still remains a
tremendous waste. Industry has
learned to burn about one-tenth
of one per cent of uranium ore,
which is one part of one thous
and. This is about three million
times more complete burnup
than in the case of coal.
