IS Thursday, March 1. 19SS W. Europe Papers Laud Eisenhower; Would Ditch Nixon London (UP.) "West Eur- opean newspapers today laudedday's ekOtion-year storm center. President Eisenhower's person al courage in deciding to run again but many hinted that the Republicans should ditch Vice President Richard M. Nixon. A common, three-play thread I ran through European reaction: 1. Forecasters like London's Daily Mail, Germany's Frank furter Rundschau, and Amster dam's De Telegraff predicted a Republican victory in the fall elections. 2. Nearly all newspapers agreed Mr. Eisenhower had made a courageous decision in deciding to run after suffering a heart attack. London's News Chronicle, which leans to Adlai Steveson, said the announce ment was "the human one" of a man who has been sick offer ing himself for further vast and unremitting responsibility." Nixon Seen Out 3. Widespread reports appear- j ed across Europe that Nixon J would not be the new vice-pres idential candidate. The Laborite Daily . Herald of London called him, "too young, too brash, too inexperienced." The Frankfurter Rundschau said "according to Washington circles, the President wants Vice-President Richard Nixon, the 'nice boy from California.' But the mistrust of the young man is about as widespread as trust in his chief from Wash ington to Moscow." Dewey. Warren Mentioned The Laborite Daily Herald said Nixon might be replaced by Thomas E. Dewey, Chief Justice Earl Warren or Sen. William F. .Kncyvland. The pro-Stevenson Manchest er Guardian said Nixon "is not a man of the celiber needed for leading the free world." The Eisenhower announce ment was a banner-line story in most parts of Europe but Italy received the decision as a fore gone conclusion and it failed to make many front pages. In most countries thP an nouncement was received with rejoicing since Mr. Eisenhower is regarded with abiding affec tion as the liberator of much of Europe and his foreign policies haveOsince won respect. 0 Keating Speaks Af G Kiwanis Meeting The only control the county court has over elective offices of the county is the budget, Jackson County Judge Rodney Keating told members of Med ford Kiwanis club yesterday at their luncheon meeting. The court cannot tell the oth er elective officials what to do, the judge said. Speaking at Rogue Valley Country club, Keating outlined duties and work of the county judge and court. He said the biggest job is the preparation yiof the yearly budget for county a: rm. ijrf i. 3 uptrauun. xne juuge sucsscu that it is up to citizens as tax payers to determine what serv ices they wfltt. Keatgpg pointed to the need to be restic in estimating iShds for county operation rath er than to figure budgets too low. He . indicated that couifiy road work this year will be largely repair, rather than new construction, because of Decem ber and February floods. Before starting his own com pany, Henry Ford was an owner and chief engineer of the De troit Automobile Co. which was formed in 18991 Ford withdrew from the firm because of differ ences in policy in 1901 and the company later reorganized as the Cadillac Motor Co. IT'S GREAT POTATO 'A 0-45-Q Nixon's Friends Fear Move Him Given9 Green Light by By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Correspondent Washington (U.P.) Vice Pres ident Richard M. Nixon is to- If he is forced off the 1956 R e p u b 1 ican p r e s i dential ticket, a likely substitute would be former Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, of New York. Lyle C. Wilson Dewey prob ably would accept. Some of Nixon's friends fear that the movement to bounce him -got a green light Wednes day in President Eisenhower's announcement that he would ac cept renomination but leave the selection of a .vice-president up to the Republican National Con vention. Some of Nixon's adverse crit ics read it the other way as a solid endorsement of the vice president. The facts are that Mr. Eisen hower emphatically praised Nixon's ability and bis perform ance as vice-presidtrt but re fused to commit himself when asked if he wanted him on the ticket again. Time for that, said the President, is after the Re publican National Convention has nominated a presidential candidate. q Refuses To Commit Self Mr. Eisenhower's refusal to commit himself on a running mate is sufficient to put new muscle and enthusiasm in the organized effort to ditch Nixon. Some of the President's longtime military associates and more re cent golf cronies are active in the movement against the vice- 1 CaiUdll.. They will get some immediate encouragement, at least, from Mr. Eisenhower's repudiation Wednesday of Nixon's recent reference to Chief Justice Earl Warren as a Republican chief justice. Nixon so, described Mr. Warren in remarking on the Su- Protest Withdrawal On Swift Dp Urged Portland (U.P.) D. R. Mc Clung, executive vice-president of Pacific Power and Light Co. yesterday urged Cowlitz county PUD to withdraw its protest to the Federal Power Commission against granting a license to PP&L for construction of the proposed $58,000,000 Swift riv er dam on the Lewis river. The Cowlitz PUD filed its protes4 with the FC last Thurs day and requested a sharing of the output of Lewis river pow er. PP&L presently operates two dams on the stream, the Yale and the -Merwin installa tions. McC?ung declared that the power supply problem of th.e region is too important to risk any delay in getting the Swift development started. a Writ Denied Eugene Dog Racing Group Salem (U.R) Circuit Judge Val D. Sloper yesterday denied a request of Greyhound Park of Eugene for a pre-emp-tory writ of mandamus direct ed against the State Racing com mission. The GreyhouQj Park group had sought to establish a dog racing track in the Eugene area. A wave of protest was voiced by Lane coiQty residents. The judge held that the &roup had failed, "to prove that it is presently entitled, as a matter of right, 'Q license for pari-mu-tuel racing under provisions of Oregon law."

Nixon is primarily on the spot, however, because of public ' awareness of Mr. Eisenhower's 1 September heart attack. The fact of that seizure inescapably leads to unusual speculation whether the President would survive to complete a second term. More over, the President is 65 years I old and would be 70 on leaving I office after a second term. Nixon has been an acutely i controversial political figure i from the outset of his congres-! sional career when he was a j prime factor in the exposure j which led to the conviction of i Alger Hiss on perjury charges j growing out of denial of his asso- i ciation with the Communist i Party. Fear Large-Scale Bolt Some of Mr . Eisenhower's I close friends are urgin ' that he I be dropped lest millions of per sons bolt the Republican presi dential ncKet mis year in pro- test against the possibility that'j Nixon might succeed to the ! White House. The stop-Nixon ! forces need a substitute with j two vital qualifications. First, j he should have national stature i and, second, he should be cap able of carrying the 1356 cam paign load. Mr. Eisenhower in tends a minimum of campaign ing. That's where Dewey comes in. Mr. Eisenhower accepted Nixon almost sight unseen in 1952 as h i s vice-presidential running mate. This was very largely on Dewey s recommendation. Dewey is on record among his friends as saying that he does not want the vice-presidential nomination and that he does not believe Mr. Eisenhower will per mit Nixon to be benched. But ! when pressed for an answer to ! an iffy question suppose Nixon j were benched he has said, sub stantially, this: j Yes, if I were asked to run for the vice-presidency and if I were convinced that this would con tribute measurably to the chances for success of the Repub lican party, I would accept the nomination.
