The protests of conservation and wildhte leagues
all over the country, including dozens of them sent to
President Eisenhower, add up to nothing more im
portant to the Courier, than what it considers the
mouthings of the Isaac Walton League regarding un
necessary dams and the destruction of fish resulting.
If a fast buck can be made ok go to it! mat is
the doctrine of the Grants Pass defender of the two
Macs, Joe McCarthy and Douglas McKay.
We quote :
"Oil is where you find it, and it is important to a lot of
people beside the drillers."
Surely! The defenders of Teapot dome said much
the same thing. If oil is found in a wildlife refuge, ok.

entitled "Republican Give
"Historically the nation's wildlife refuges have been
off limits to oil exploitation with two exceptions: in cases
where original owners never did surrender their mineral
rights to refuge land and in cases where the government
entered into cooperative agreements with oil companies
which were drilling nearby to prevent them from sucking
out ail the oil from underneath the government's own land."
But with the advent of Douglas McKay all that
was changed.
We quote the Harpers article turtner:
"Interior now admits it granted some 274 leases between
August 1953 when the 'stop-order' began and last Decem
ber 2 when it was revoked. Not many more leases have ever
been granted in the 34 years of refuge history and these
without the protection of 'stop order.' "
In other words the McKay regime didn't even obey
its own instructions, but leases were granted under
non-competitive terms right and left. A subsidiary of
Seagrams Distillery, the Frankfort Oil Company of
Oklahoma, was one of the cnief beneficiaries and in
all these the government did not get a red cent.
If that doesn t add up
would the Grants Pass paper suggest as the proper
term for it? R.W.R.
How About Partisanship?
Being hard pressed for a defense of the McKay
policies the Courier characteristically dismisses all
accusations by presenting the familiar "alibi" of par
tisanship it's all just another snide attack by the
Democratic opposition, etc., etc.
The only fly in this ointment is that the criticisms
have come almost entirely from Republicans.
For example note what the conservation editor of
Field & Stream has to say on this score in the issue
of April 1956, quote :
"Over the years this department has tried to keep away
from even the shadow of political bias when discussing pol
icies affecting the protection of natural resources, but when
the individual is under fire from his own ranks I trust the
situation may be reported without laying oneself open to the
charge of prejudice ... I refrain from quoting the letters of
protest, as a whole, but I do want to hand out the words of
one individual. They are from an arch-Republican, a bitter
critic of many Democratic policies over the years and a pub
lic servant to whom all knowing conservationists have paid
the highest respect for almost a quarter of a century. He
says, quote:
" 'From all that I can learn, the Secretary of the Interior
has yanked the reverse lever on every established principle
of conservation of natural resources we have been fighting
for within my memory. ... If the Republican party bosses
think that the aTfection? worship of the Eisenhower per
sonality can survive the major ostracism of the vast and
thoughtful population of the U.S.A. they have reckoned
without the sportsmen, the wildlife adherents, the vast
army of garden clubs, the forestry enthusiasts, the land and
water management technicians, the generation-old teachings
of the Boy Scouts, the Future Farmers of America and the
organized conservationist? whose memberships number in
the millions.' "
The man who said that is, among other notable
things, the father of the national wildlife refuge
system as we know it today J. N. (Ding) Darling.
R.W.R.
Statesmanship of Long Ago
What we want is an active class who will insist in season
and out of season that we shall have a country whose great
ness is measured not only by its square miles, its number of
yards woven, of hogs packed, or bushels of wheat raised, not
only by its skill to feed and clothe the body, but also by its
power to feed and clothe the soul; a country which shall be
as great morally as it is materially; a country whose very
name shall call out all that is best within us.
Before the above is dismissed as more claptrap
from the Egg-Head Press, let it be stated that it is an
extract from a speech given by James Russell Lowell
in 1888 68 years ago!
We are sure if Mr. Lowell were alive today he
would be in the thick of the fight against the present
rampant materialism, which has only one end in view
"how much money is there in it" not how much
pleasure and benefit to the people may be derived
from it.
Mr. Lowell would, we feel sure, see something in
the preservation of wildlife in their native habitat, of
fish in our mountain streams, deer grazing in safe re
treats far from high-powered rifles, other than
feather brained obstacles to money-making how
ever legitimate the latter may be when it is subor
dinate to, not superior to, promotion of the public
welfare.
In the same speech Mr.. Lowell had this to say of
"true statesmanship," quote :

Egypt's Nasser Preparing for
Biggest Week Since Revolution
By CHARLI'S M. McCANN
United Press Correspondent
Premier Gar.ial Abdel Nasser
of Egypt is preparing for his
biggest week since he engineered
1 tho nvprthrnw
of King Fa
rouk four
years ago.
Next Mon
d a y, Nasser
will lead in a
mammoth na
tional celebra-
Cbsxles Hccsnn tlOn Ot me
Suez Canal zone by British
forces.
On the following Saturday,
June 23, Nasser will conduct a
plebiscite in which his people
will vote whether to establish a
constitutional republic.
It will be a one-day vote. A
practically unanimous yes is
assured.
Then, within the next few
months, Nasser will be formally
elected president and the people
will elect a national assembly
According to present- plans
Nasser will start his week with
a slap at Great Britain.
Shepilov To Attend
It has been announced that
Dmitri T. Shepilov, Soviet Rus
sia s new foreign minister, has
accepted an invitation to fly to
Cairo to join in the Suez Canal
celebration.
Thi:s invitation is regarded by
Britain as a deliberate affront.
It caused considerable sur
prise in London, because it had
been reported from Cairo that
Nasser intended to make a long
and friendly statement on British-Egyptian
relations in his
speech at the Suez festivities.
With Shepilov sitting on the
platform when Nasser speaks, it
Matter of Fact By
THE PRESIDENT'S ILLNESS
Washington It is good to
know that the President's opera
tion was a brilliant success, that
h i s recovery
should be com
p 1 e t e within
six weeks, and
that his doc
tors agree that
his illness
need not' bar
him from a
second term.
Even so,
there is no
Stewart Alsop
ducking the fact that the Presi
dent and the country are again
squarely faced with a familiar
question whether a man in his
condition should attempt to car
ry the crushing burden of the
Presidency for four more years.
The question can only be intelli
gently decided by a frank and
careful weighing of the medical
factors, and of other, more in
tangible, but equally important
factors as well.
The world's greatest medical
authority on the President's dis
ease, ileitis, is Dr. Burrill Crohn,
who first diagnosed the disease
as benign and operable in 1932
before that, the patient usual
ly died. Since 1932 Dr. Crohn has
treated some 700 cases of the
disease.
JR. CROHN agrees, on the
basis of this experience, thsit
the President should have recov
ered fully in six weeks. More
over, Dr. Crohn DOints out that
there is virtually no chance of
malignancy developing, since
the small intestine is almost im
mune to maligancy. It is thus
quite reasonable to hope that the
President has many years of ac
tive and happy life ahead of him.
But there is a minus side to
the medical picture as well. As
Dr. Crohn points out, the Presi
dent's operation, involving the
elimination of several inches of
intestine, is most distinctly a ma
jor operaton. Although the heart
is not directly involved, the
President's heart attack and his
age are unquestionably compli
cating factors. Finally, based on
Dr. Crohn's experience, there is
a 35 per cent chance of recur
rence of ileitis.
There is, of course, a some
what similar chance of recur
rence of coronary thrombosis. In
sum, like his heart attack, the
President's operation has been
no minor indispostion. Even aft
er recovery, Dr. Crohn and oth
er doctors consulted agreed, a
physically vigorous campaign by
the President must be ruled out.
SO MUCH for the medical fac
tors. The President's person
al pres'ige is perhaps the most
important of the intangible fac
tors to be- weighed. In a speech
some days ago, the President
said: "Certainly the prestige of
by which men may be influenced as how they ought to be
influenced, not so much about how men's passions and
prejudices may be utilized for a momentary advantage to
himself or his party as how they may be hindered from do
ing a permanent harm to the commonwealth."
As a "permanent harm to the commonwealth" we
have no doubt that America's great poet-statesman
would have listed opening up wildlife refuges to oil
promoters, and he certainly would never have opposed
conservation of natural resources as advocated by
the Republican party under Teddy Roosevelt.
R.W.R.
is hardly likely that anything
Nasser may say will have much
effect on Britain.
It happens that Shepilov, be
fore he succeeded Vyacheslav M.
Molotov as foreign minister on
June 1, was a key man in
launching Russia's new cam
paign of meddling in Middle
Eastern affairs. It was Shepilov
who went to Egypt to prepare
the way for the deal by which
Communist Czechoslovakia
agreed to sell arms to Egypt.
But Nasser has embarked on
a policy of "neutralism" by
which he hopes to play the Com
munist East against the Allied
West, and to emerge as the lead
er of the Arab world. "-y
As part of this policy, he has
antagonized France as well as
Britain.
Boycott French Ships
He is openly encouraging the
Arab rebellions against France
in North Africa. Egyptian steve
dores, certainly not without
Nasser's approval, have just
started a boycott of French ships
En The Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
The biggest question in the
world is this:
HOW'S IKE?
Here are the latest bulletins
as this is written:
WHITE House News Secretary
James Hagerty reports Pres
ident Eisenhower is recovering
most satisfactorily from his" ab
dominal operation. He quotes
physicians as ;ajing the Pres
ident's spirits are good and his
morale is high.
Hagerty added he expects no
interruption in the duties of the
Presidency.
Stewart Alsop
the United States since the last
world war has never been as
high as it in this day." The state
ment is open to dispute. But
hardly anyone will dispute that
the prestige of Dwight D. Eisen
hower has never been higher, all
over the world.
Almost single-handed, the
President has removed the false
face of the United States as an
unstable and warlike power.
This has been, perhaps, his sin
gle greatest service to his coun
try. His second greatest service
has been to restore a large meas
ure of the national unity which
was so sadly lacking only a few
years ago.
If the President decides to
withdraw, the irreplaceable na
tional asset of his. world prestige
will be lost. A period of ex
treme political confusion will
also be ushered in, in which the
violent partisanship which the
President has done so much to
still will again be loudly heard
VET, as in the case of the med-
ical picture, theie is another
side of the picture which must
also be considered. Ever since
his heart attack, there has been
a tendency among his subordi
nates to shield Mr. Eisenhower
from the unpleasant responsibil
ities of his office. A case in point
was the urgent message on the
Middle Eastern crisis from Brit
ish Prime Minister Sir Anthony
Eden, which was apparently con
cealed from the President.
Military leaders, appalled by
the accelerating shift in the
world power balance to the Com
munist bloc, complain that the
President is so protected that
they have not-been able to make
known to him the real case for
a sharply stepped up defense ef
fort. Again, there is heavy pres
sure on the National Security
Council to avoid troubling the
President with split papers. The
result has been largely to trans
form the NSC into a mechanism
for reading the lowest common
denominator of indecision.
QINCE the President's latest
" trouDie, tne tendency to over
protect him is sure to grow. Per
haps this is not too great a price
to pay for his prestige abroad
and his leadership at home. But
it is silly to pretend that there
is no price to pay; or to disre
gard the risks involved in a sec
ond term for a man of 65 who
has had a coronary thrombosis
and a major abdominal opera
tion within less than eight
months.
As before, the final decision
will rest with the President him
self. But it is not only legitimate,
but right and needful, that the
matter be fully and frankly de
bated by the country.

Herald Tribune, Inc.)
in protest against France's anti
rebel campaign in Algeria.
Nasser has recognized Red
China. He has accepted invita
tions to visit Red China and
Russia. It was announced last
week that he will visit President
Tito of Communist Yugoslavia
soon after Tito returns from his
present visit to Russia.
Nasser obviously is in firm
control in Egypt, and he ob
viously means to keep control.
Under the plebiscite to be
held Saturday week, Egypt's
present ruling revolutionary
command council, formed at the
time of Farouk's overthrow,
will be succeeded by a "Su
preme Council for National
Union." The council "will have
the vote power over candidates
who run in the election of a na
tional assembly. The supreme
council will be the controlling
committee of a new "National
Council," which will be in ef
fect a one-party political organi
zation. And over everything,
will be Nasser as head man.
DR. BURILL CROHN, discover
er of the ailment affecting
the President and probably the
best known authority on it, says
the President's case is the most
common and safest type and the
most easily amendable to success
ful surgery. He continues:
"If the operation was succes
sful and I feel sure it was in
this case President Eisenhower
should be restored to full health,
with no diminution of his work
ing efficiency."
He added that the President
probably would be confined to
bed for about two weeks and
then gradually could resume his
regular schedule.
All reports have emphasized
that the President's heart is not
involved in his present illness.
CJO MUCH for the medical issue.
J T.et's now take a lnnk
the POLITICAL issues that art-
involved.
THIS brief dispatch from Wash
ington probably sums up the
political situation accurately:
"The illness is expected to
have a great impact on the Pres
ident s political future and his
candidacy for reelection. There
is no indication on whether he
might change his mind regard
ing a second term as a result of
his second serious illness within
a year."
I think this should be added
The state of President ;Eisen-
hower's health is a perfectly
legitimate political issue. It in
volves problems so grave that
they MUST be given careful con
sideration. These are critical
times in the world. We face a
powerful and implacable enemy
whose long-term purpose is to
destroy us. Suppose our leader
should be fatally stricken. It
isn't impossible that our enemy
might choose that moment to
strike.
We've already seen how a
sudden change in our President's
health can upset and disrupt our
great securities exchanges upon
which so much of our financial
stability rests. Can we afford to
run the risk of FREQUENT dis
ruption of that sort?
THAT'S the dark side of tte
picture.
Let's now take a look at the
other side.
THERE are many, many able
men in BIG industry and busi
ness in our country who have to
be careful of their health who 1
must constantly face days, even ;
weeks, when they must cancel !
their appointments, when they j
must even take time out to go j
to the hospital for rest and ex- j
perts care. - I
But their minds are sharp and !
clear. Their decisions are . ac-1

they lay down are successful. ;
Under their leadership, the in

Stevenson Now Faces
Conclusive Drive for
Uncommitted Votes
Washington (CQ) Front
running Adlai E. Stevenson has
started the last part of his drive
for the Democratic Presidential
nomination cracking the un
committed and "favorite son"
bloc of 728 convention votes.
The former Illinois governor,
fresh from the winner-take-all
California victory, finished the
primary campaign season with
264 Democratic convention votes
openly committed to his candi
dacy. He doused the hopes of
Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.),
who like Stevenson trekked hun
dreds of thousands of miles in
search of votes.
But Kefauver remains a factor
in the nominating process be
cause of the 173 votes he win
take into the Aug. 13 conven
tion. This is a potent bloc, espe
cially in the final bargaining
stages when a decisive ballot of
the delegates representing 1.37Z
votes appears.
How Votes Lie
With the greatly publicized
phase of the vote-seeking out of
the way, here is how the Demo
cratic Presidential marathon
looks, with 686 Vi votes needed
to. nominate:
Stevenson, 264 votes; Kefau
ver 173; Gov. Averell Harriman
(N.Y.) 102; Sen. Stuart Syming
ton (Mo.) 45; Sen. Lyndon B
Johnson (Tex.) 56i; Gov. Frank
Lausche (O.) 54; Gov. G. Mennen
Williams (Mich.) 44; Gov. Abra
ham Ribicoff (Conn.) 20; Rep
John W. McCormack (Mass.) 9;
former President Harry S. Tru
man 1; and a half vote each for
Sen. Harry Flood Byrd (Va.)
Sen. Wayne Morse (Ore.), Sen
Richard B. Russell (Ga.) and
Rep. Francis E. Walter (Pa.)
- On the Republican side, Presi
dent Eisenhower has received
assurances of support and pledg
ed delegates to assure him norni
nation on the first ballot. With
662 votes needed to nominate
the President is already assured
of a minimum of 718 votes on
the first ballot.
Uncommitted Delegates
One reservoir of so far unconv
mitteddelegates is in thosestates
where the state conventions
have yet to pick delegates
States included in this category,
the date of the state convention
and their convention vote:
Arizona, June 30 (16); Arkan
sas, date undecided (26); Iowa.
July 31 (24); Kentucky, July
(30); Mississippi, July 17 (22);
Montana, June 25 (16); New
Mexico, June 11 (16): Virginia.
July 27 (32); Washington, June

Stevenson can argue for sup

have been chosen, but have re
mained uncommitted awaiting

olina (2014); Oklahoma (28);
Pennsylvania (18); Rhode Island

West Virginia (24).
Needs Two-thirds
Stevenson will have to line up
two-thirds about 405 of these
votes in order to score an early
ballot win. The bulk of Kefau-
vers' votes, by law, are bound to
him for the first ballot and for as
many succeeding ballots where
the delegation feels the Tennes-
sean "has a reasonable chance of
obtaining the nomination." The
remainder of Kefauver's votes
must stay with him as long as
he polls 10 per cent of the total
convention vote.
Democrats opposed to Steven
son's nomination are faced with
the problem of holding off Stev
enson's fi6t or second ballot
win, plus trying to form a coali
tion behind another candidate
such as Harriman. Kefauver's
votes could switch to Harriman
in later ballots, if the vote count
ing goes that far.
Against such indecisiveness.
Stevenson supporters can argue,
that their candidate has out-
polled Kefauver in the primaries
and the total Democratic vote
has exceeded that given Presi
dent Eisenhower in the same
states.
Popular Vote
The breakdown there, al
though incomplete and in some
cases unofficial, shows:
Stevenson, 2,500,263; Kefau
ver, 1,852,093; Eisenhower, 4,
131,603. The total Democratic
vote: 4,352,356.
Some observers persist in be
lieving the Democratic conven
tion will be a wide-open affair.
Others, since the Florida and
California victories, see the pen
dulum rushing to Stevenson in
the convention.
Regardless of the interpreta
tion, the Democrats are justified
in advertising their proceedings
as "interesting,"
