SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Wednesday. February 8, 1S56
Ike's Name Entered on Minnesota
Primary Ballot Without Consent
Washington (U.P.) Minne
sota Republican leaders entered
President Eisenhower in their
presidential primary without ask
ing or getting assurances that he
would go along, Sen. Edward J.
Thye (R-Minn.) said today.
But on the basis of the Minne
sota primary law, an argument
can be made that no negative
answer to the second term ques
tion is likely to come from Mr,
Eisenhower before . Feb. 25. By
o doing, he would pull the rug
from under his friends and the
state GOP organization in Min
nesota. . -' - ' " '
The presidential primary law
in Minnesota is . similar to the
one in New Hampshire in that
a candidate may be -.entered
without his consent but is al
lowed to withdraw.
Entered in New Hampshire
Mr. Eisenhower was entered
in the New Hampshire primary
last month. He responded by say
ing he would not object but that
his action, should not; be. inter
preted to mean that he had de
cided to run again.
Thye and other Minnesota
GOP leaders put his name in
the Minnesota primary last week.
This action has not yet been ack
nowledged by the President.
Mr. Eisenhower has his next
medical examination ' scheduled
early next week and his doctors
will inform him of the results
Feb. 14. ,. ;, ...
The doctors' report on his re
covery from hjs heart attack
last fall is expected to weigh

heavily in his decision whether
to accept renomination.
Decision Expected Soon
Some Republicans expect the
President to announce his deci
sion soon after this examination.
Senate GOP Leader William F.
Knowland, who wants to run if
Mr. Eisenhower does not, is mak
ing plans on that assumption.-
However, Feb. 15 is the Min
nesota deadline for . entering
slates of National Convention
delegates pledged to a presi
dential candidate. The candidate
can withdraw before Feb.. 25.
If Mr. Eisenhower should an
nounce against a second term
between Feb. 15 and 25 and fol
low up by withdrawing from
Minnesota he would knock the
state organization slate of dele
gates off the ballot.

March 3 as, .'National Nothing
Week". in Birmingham.

Wally thinks it's pure magic the .
way I keep our house spotless, and
still have so much time for the
things I like to do. Of course, it's
finding faster, easier ways to do
my housework that reaUy does the
trick. Just take wood floors. ... .
How I hated that messy cleaning '.
and waxing. And my arms and
back would ache for days '. V
afterwards. Then I heard about
' Bruce Cleaning Wax. What a joy!
There's no floor washing at all t t,
because Bruce cleans as it waxes. :.
Takes only half the time. To top
it off, my wood floors never ' : "
looked better. Just.try a can of
Bruce Cleaning Wax. Everybody
who uses it thinks it's wonderful. .-.
Incidentally, Tvs found other Bruce
floor products help me, too. There's
Bruce Floor Cleaner for cleaning and
lighter waxing, Bruce Paste Wax, ;
Bruce Asphalt Tile Cleaner, Bruce
Asphalt Tile Self-Polishing Wax and.
the new Bruce
Self-Polishing
Wax. Yes,
for floors

As We Live
By ELIZABETH HU.4l.OCK PH.D.
Don't Urge Fiance-
To Move Nearer Work
Long engagements can be a
strain on young people, especial
ly when they must be separated.
(Q) "I am 17
years old and
my fiance is
21. I h a v e
been- going
steady with
him for two
years and we
have been en
gaged for six
months. We
Dr. Hurlock plan to be
married when I am 18 and one
half years old. Do you think I'm
loo young? I love him very much
and I know he loves me. Anoth
er thing bothering me is that he
travels a long distance -to and
from his work so he can be near
me. He says he can't stay there
while I'm here because he' miss
es me. I'll admit I miss him also,
but I'd rather have him rent . a
room and stay there during the
week. It would be less travelling
after a day's work. How can I
make him understand this?"
T.N.C.
(A) To answer your first ques
tion first, I would say you are
young to be making a decision
that will affect the whole course
of your future life. However,
you are very wise to plan to wait
until you are older before you
take the final step. After an en
gagement of two years, on top
of going steady for two years,
you and this young man should
know each other very well and
should know if you want to
spend the rest of your lives to
gether. '
As-for -your second question,
I am not sure you are wise in
suggesting to this young, man
that he live away from you, even
if it will mean cutting down on
the time and energy spent in
commuting tack and forth to
his work. - '
Thought With Her
Living in a place where he
knows -few people, away from
his family and friends, might be
all right ,for a man; who .is emo
tionally free.- But, this man's
thoughts. are with you and he
would be' very lonely and un
happy away from you in the
evenings, after his work is ov
er. Because he is engaged, he
would not want to go out with
other girls and other young men
would be dating their girls. That
would leave him all alone.
' . Unless the. commuting proves
to be too great a strain on his
health, I suggest that you do
not interfere with this matter.
In" fact, many people find com
muting a relaxation after a day's
work.. .The other, possible . solu
tion to this problem is to ' urge
him to look for - a job nearer
where you live so he will not
have so much commuting. i
