Phil Hitchcock's Appetite for
Senate Whetted by Capital Visit
(via
Br A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Corrupocdent
Washington . A visit to the
nation's capital, where he was'
warmly greeted by President
i s e n hower
and various
members
o 1 Congress,
seemed this
week to whet
the appetite of
Philips.
Hitchcock for
another at
tempt to win
a. Robe smiui a seat in con
gress. The man who was edged
out by Douglas McKay for the
chance to take on Sen. Wayne
Morse (D-Ore.) this fall is al
ready thinking ahead to his next
campaign and he conceded that
he is quite likely to run against
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D
Ore.) when Neuberger's term ex
pires in 1960.
"A good many young Republi
cans have thought of me as the
"white hope' of the Republican
party in Oregon," explained
Hitchcock in an interview. "I
have encouraged them in that be
lief because I think it is very im
portant for our party to bring in
new and younger leadership."
Drift Away Seen
He added that he believes the
ability of the Republican party
in Oregon to hold its own against
a Democratic party that is rising
in number and political strength
throughout the state is depend
ant upon admitting able young
men to the party's counsels of
authority.
Hitchcock said very bluntly
that he thinks that if the "Ar
lington club (of Portland) crowd"
continues to dominate the party.
Ha younger membership will
drift away, -not necessarily into
the Democratic ranks but into
apathetic independence. His own
disappointment in defeat, be in
dicated, is partly caused by his
belief that McKay's victory
strengthened the hand of the
"Arlington Club crowd" and
weakened that of the party's
young bloods.
But Hitchcock is in an awk
ward spot, he admits, setting his
sights even tentatively on a cam
paign for the Senate that is still
four years away, especially since
he holds no public office which
could keep him in the public eye.
Would Run for House
He would not be averse to run
ning for the House of Represen
tatives, but he said he has no in
tention of running against Rep.
k Walter Norblad (R-Ore.) in
whose congressional district he
resides. Hitchcock said some par
ty friends urged him to run
against Rep. Edith Green (D
Ore ), inasmuch as he is affilia
ted with Lewis and Clark college
In her Portland congressional
district. But inasmuch as he lives
in Clackamas county, which puts
him just over the line in Nor
blad's district, he didn't think it
wise to run for Congress in the
Portland district.
A former state senator, Hitch
cock said "it would be just
ploughing old ground" to go
back to the state legislature, so
he rules that office out. Just how
he will solve this problem re
mains to be seen.
Visils Friends
Hitchcock came to Washing
ton, D.C., from Philadelphia,
where he was taking part in the
annual general assembly of the
Presbyterian church. He said he
wanted to visit several friends,
mainly Howard Pyle, ex-governor
of Arizona who is on the
presidents' White House staff,
and George W. Greene, admin
istrative assistant to Sen. Her
man Welker (R-Ida.).
While visiting Pyle at the
White House, he was ushered in
for a brief chat with the presi
dent, who seemed quite aware of
the stiff competition he had giv
en McKay but was complimen
tary of the type campaign he
had waged.
Then he went to Capitol Hill
for visits with members of Con
gress, including a political bull
session with Reps. Harris Ells
worth and Norblad. After that
he stopped to visit Guy Cordon,
former Oregon senator, at his
law office here.

Stan My wife's ister is our
problem.
Stella I must remain close to
her.
Stan I would like to extri
cate my wife and myself from
an uneasy situation, but my wife
is heedless of danger.
My wife's sister was my
fiance, a girl I met in college. My
wife is her older sister, whom I
met on my first visit to the girl's
home. I felt attracted to my wife
from our first meeting. At first
I tried to suppress this feeling,
but when 1 noticed that my
fiance was being rushed by an
other man, I realized that I had
a right to follow my true feel
ings. My wife and her sister have
always been very close and they
continue to be. I am afraid of
this. I feel awkward in the pres
ence of my sister-in-law, and
I'm very much afraid her resent
ment of me may poison the at
mosphere for all of us.
The only solution, I feel, is for
County Sfockmen Set
Meeting Next Week
The Jackson County Stock
men's association board of direc
tors and the newly appointed
Feeder Day Sales committee will
hold a joint meeting at 8 p.m.
Tuesday in the county agent's
office, according to County
Agent W. B. (Ben) Tucker.
Charles Stanley, president of
the association, will report on a
meeting of the Oregon Cattle
men's association he attended
last month in Bend.
Included in discussion topics
will be a recommendation on
supporting prices under a pro
gram similar to the Oklahoma
plan.
The Feeder Day Sales commit
tee will continue! plans for a
Feeder Cattle sale to be held
sometime next fall. Merton Brad
shaw is chairman of the committee.

Co. at Riddle, Ore., died in a
local hospital Wednesday after
an illness of about six weeks.
He was 55.
us to live in a different part of
town and see my sister-in-law
only when necessary. But my
wife and her sister cling to
gether, and make me very nerv
ous. Stella I want her children
and mine to grow up as friends
and I want to feel, that we can
lean on each other if life brings
adversity.
My husband's fears are base
less. My sister was never sure
about Stan, and she confided this
to me before they broke up. She
does not feel at all jilted and she
is about to marry the man who
"rushed" her and whom she
loves very much.
I think it would take a great
deal out of my life if I could
not see my little sister, since I
have always dreamed of our
families growing up together.
The Council: This calls for
clear thinking and plain talking.
The problem evidently is not
the sister-in-law's "resentment"
but Stan's state of mind. He
seems to have a touch of fickle
ness that he must overcome.
There is strong pull of sister
ly feeling here that moving to
another part of town may not
destroy. Stan cannot deprive his
wife of her sister's love without
also depriving his home and his
family life of a precious quality.
He should face his weakness in
his own mind and overcome, it.
Stella should tell him clearly
how her sister felt she was mak
ing a mistake and how much her
sister loves the man she is about
to marry.
The fact that Stan and the sister-in-law
were once very fond
of each other should not be al
lowed to becloud their lives. On
the contrary, it should and can
create a strong feeling of har
mony that will some day give
the children of both couples
something very priceless, the
companionship, of close cousins.
A separation of the couples
would not remove the strain un
less it were complete and final.
As long as Stan realizes that he
and his sister-in-law will have to
meet on some occasions, it is far
better that he learn to see this
situation in its true perspective
and completely allay his present
feeling of embarrassment and
emotional insecurity.

Warning About Ealing
Coastal Clams Issued
Dr. Harold M.. Erickson, state
health officer, has issued the an
nual warning against eating ma
rine mussels or uncleaned clams
taken from Oregon coastal wa
ters during the spring and sum
mer.
Dr. Erickson said it is not safe
to eat any portion of the mussels
or the digestive organs of clams
at this time of year because they
may contain a strong alkaloid
poison similar to strychnine.
He explained the poison re
sults from the mussels or clams
eating a tiny organism which
causes a red tide and is occa
sionally washed in by the ocean
during the summer.
The health officer said com
mercial packers do not permit
harmful seafood to enter the
open market and the sale and
distribution of marine mussels
and uncleaned clams is prohib
ited by the state board of health
between May 1 and October 31.
People who dig clams during
the danger period are advised to
remove all black portions be
fore eating. White meat and
muscular tissues of the clams do
not contain the poison, he said.
Dr. Erickson also cautioned
against feeding discarded por
tions of animals or domestic
fowl, since they are also suscept
ible to the poison.
Queen's Precautions
Result of Threats
London (U.R) The Daily
Express said today the unusual
lv heavy precautions ordered for
the protection of Queen Eliza
beth on her official birthday
Thursday were the result of an
anonymous threat to "cause dis
turbances." The newspaper gave no indica
tion of the origin of the vaguely
worded threat, but the story in
evitably recalled reports that
three triggermen from terror
ridden Cyprus have been smug
gled into England to assassinate
the queen or some high official
of her government.

Tito, Aides Arrive
In Russia for Visit
London U.R) Yugoslav
President Tito arrived in Russia
today for his first visit to the
Soviet Union since he broke
with the late Josef Stalin eight
years ago.
Moscow Radio reported the ar
rival of Tito and his aides. The
Soviet Tass news agency said his
special train had entered the
Soviet Union at Ungeny, a front
ier station on the Russian side
of the Soviet-Rumanian frontier.
In Moscow, all newspapers
carried stories and dispatches
from Bucharest reporting Tito's
stopover there plus Belgrade dis
patches on Yugoslavian reaction.
Garden Notes
By
C. B. CORDY
County Extension
Agent for Horticulture
Strawberry leaf rollers are
still working in strawberry
patches, so another application
of methoxychlor at this time
should be applied.
These leaf rollers are little
greenish worms that work on the
upper sides of the leaves pulling
the two edges together and spin
ning a web in between. After
they become rolled up in the
leaves, they cannot be" killed, but
any new ones can be killed off
before the leaves are rolled.
Now Ripening
Strawberries are now ripen
ing, so a spray at this time will
leave a residue on the fruit; how
ever, methoxychlor is one of the
safest of the insecticides that we
have, so if a period of 3 to 5 days
is allowed to pass after spraying,
the fruit can be safely eaten.
This metheoxychlor is the
same material that we are using
on the cherry fruit fly and like
wise, a visible residue on the
fruit would not be dangerous.
However, it would be desirable
to allowa 3 to 5 day period after
cherries.
Cherry fruit flies are a new
pest in the valley and many peo
ple have not sprayed their trees
and have not had trouble with
them. However, in the last year
or two, the pest is becoming very
widespread and it is no longer
safe to assume your crop will not
be attacked.
Instead of being afraid of the
residue on the cherries, consum
ers should consider the presence
of the residue as an insurance
against the presence of the
worms. The residue would be un
desirable if the cherries were
shipped to outside markets
where consumers might not
realize why it was used and the
fact that the residue would not
be poisonous.
