MAIL TRIBUNE
Refreshing Candor
In a refreshingly rational and relaxed editorial
entitled "November in Search of an Issue" the Eugene
Register-Guard with a consoling pat on the neck of
the Democratic donkey, concludes :
"It must be tough, real tough, to be a Democrat in 1956."
Why any more so than in 1954 when the Oregon
Democrats elected a US senator for a six-year term,
for the first time in 40 years and the party nationally
took over control of the congress?
THE "GUARD" does not answer this query directly,
but reading between the lines one gets the impres
sion that the naner believes it is e-oine- to bp tnno-h o-n-
1 X - - o o o o
ing for the Democrats in November chiefly because
the people are so busy keeping up their installments on
TV sets, laving tile in the bathroom floor, takino- va
cations, playing golf and
issues just ao not exist
cemed.
The "Guard," in fact, goes as far as the young
English hitch-hiker who visited Eugene recently and
wondered what all the shooting was about. The peri
patetic tourist, it seems, couldn t see much difference
between the two parties and the Guard admits it is
similarly confused, and obfuscated. .
IT EVEN maintains that President -Eisenhower
wouldn't have a "prayer of getting his foreign pol
icy off the ground if it were not for Democratic sup
port, that many Republicans are leading the fight
against the Eisenhower program, including reciprocal
trade (and one might add foreign aid), and as for
the farm problem the people
and if they were they couldn't understand the mess
that the present administration has produced, for no
one can understand it except the professional agn-
culturists" and one gets
tnem can.
A S FOR THE "New Deal," far from repealing it, the
Eisenhower administration has even "broad
ened one of the New Deal's
Social Security.
As stated this is a very
accurate appraisal of the
but why it should be so much tougher on the Demo
crats than the Republicans is not so clear.
After all, immediate victory isn't everything. And

indifference on the part of

Moreover, if the big issues include public power,

eous world leadership, the

the Democratic party would be quite willing to make
a fight lor such principles even if they should not win
this year for they might two years hence.
As to world leadership the Guard maintains "the
American people deny they're isolationists, but they
We wonder if our enlightened and fair-minded
contemporary is quite sure it speaks advisedly for all
the "American people?" The term takes in consider
able territory. Or has the Guard, so discriminating in
most directions accidentally fallen into the error so
common in the higher echelons of the Republican
party, that to be a real, true 100 American one has
to be an American Indian or belong to the GOP.
IT IS, as the Guard and the visiting Britisher agree,
very confusing. And we grant from the standpoint
of a vigorous and progressive democracy somewhat
discouraging.
X7'E CAN'T speak for the Democratic party, but we
doubt if the members now with a registration
majority in Oregon feel quite as hopeless and frus
trated as the Guard would make out.
After all they have as "big issues" most of their
liberal principles which have been accepted as "stan
dard procedure," and public apathy and indifference
cannot last forever. Perhaps the "American people"
will forget they are 100
to awaken to the importance of the basic issues before
them on November 6th?
At least we see no reason for the Democrats to lose
hope. R. W. R.

that the North and South both would vote for a "good

Against this conviction might be placed the story
of the late Alfred E. Smith as Democratic nominee
for President in 1928. He earned only eight states,

Polish Communist Party Takes
New Step in Stalinism
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Correspondent
Poland's Red rulers have
taken a new step in the retreat
of the Communist world from
Stalinism.
The Polish Communist party
announced Tuesday that in the
future it will
act as a politi
cal party in
stead of exert
ing direct rule
over the gov
ernment. Communists,
of course, will
still rule the
country.

the move appears to be an im
portant one. It is a further recog
nition of the fact that Russia's
downgrading of Josef Stalin has

rumor and innuendo and wor
ried or malicious private gossip,
like the gossip about Franklin
Roosevelt's health in 1944.
Unfortunately, there are very
obvious reasons for this trend.
The President's
time in the
hospital was
longer than
his doctors
forecast. Dur
ing the Presi
dent's conva
lesc e n c e in
Gettysb u r g,
his chief sur
geon, Dr. Hea
ton, was un-
...po -Msi.p . expect e a i y
kept in residence at the .Eisen
hower farm; and White House
Press Secretary James Hagerty
made a decidely disturbing at
tempt to pass off Dr. Heaton's
stay as a purely social visit.
Finally, at Panama, there
were times when the President
looked very ill indeed; and in
Panama he made his by-now
famous remark that he "handn't
much strength" but still "kept
going."
On the other side of the bal
ance sheet, of course, there
have been the other times, like
the day when he arrived home
from Panama, when the Presi
dent has looked remarkably
well and vigorous.' And there
has been a constant flow of
soothing assurances from Press
Secretary Hagerty.
But Hagerty's assurances have
not stilled the worried talk.
Anyone who is not a recluse
knows that loyal Republicans
and fervent Eisenhower admir
ers are talking just as much as
Democrats. And although the
talk is not yet out in the open,
it raises extremely genuine pub
lic issues.
POR example, a story is now
going the rounds that his
ileitis (Operation has left the
President with a condition re
sembling a fairly mild but ob
stinately persistent and decided
ly weakening dysentery.
So far as these '-eporters can
discover and they have tried
very hard to get at the facts
the story is no invention of
heartless Democratic propagan
dists. It seems to originate, rath
er, in high Republican quarters.
among persons close to the
White House who ought to know
what they are talking about. It
fits very precisely, too, with all
those pieces of the pattern of
events like Dr. Heaton's pro
longed stay at Gettysburg, which
have caused the widespread un
derground concern.
Furthermore, the story fits
with uncomfortable- precision
into the known pattern of ileitis
itself, as described in the au
thoritative medical literature
and by the experts on the dis
ease. Ileitis, like true infectious
dystentery or the equally de
testable sprue, is an intestinal
inflammation; and it produces
the results that are to be ex
pected from an intestinal inflam
mation.
THOSE results can be quite eas
ily intensified, too, by the
type of operation the President's
doctors performed on him. Be
cause of his prior heart attack,
they avoided the more radical
surgery that is recommended in
ileitis cases. They did not cut
out or even block off the in
flamed section of the small in
testine. They merely bypassed
it by making a second join be
tween the small intestine and
the large intestine. Thus there
are now two passages, where
there was one before.
Therefore the part of the
small intestine where the ileitis
centered is still a part of the
President's digestive tract; and
unless the President has had
quite unusual good luck, the

got out of hand and that abso
lute Communist dictatorship of
the satellites must be down
graded also.
Also, the official divorce of
the Communist party from the
government keeps Poland, Rus
sia's largest and most important
satellite, well ,in the lead in the
loosening-up of Red rule.
Shock Of Poznan
It is further recognition, too,
of the shock which the Poznan
riots of June 28 gave the Com
munist world. This shock has
resulted in important conces
sions to the people not only in
Poland but in other satellites.
In decreeing its official di
vorce from the government, the
Polish Communist party said
that it had been too bound up
in bureaucracy and had not been

original ileitis still persists, al
though in a much less harmful
way.
Meanwhile the" second passage
that has been opened also by
passes the part of the large in
testine which has the function
of absorbing liquids. Failure of
this absorptive function is the
chief result of sprue. By-passing
the absorptive area by surgery
can produce a condition that is
some times called "surgical
sprue"; and this condition is by
no means invariably cured by
time.
TO TRAVELER who has ever
been unlucky enough to
suffer even from mild dysen
tery or sprue will doubt for a
moment that the condition is
partially disabling. A leading
expert on ileitis consulted by
these reporters stated that he
would unhesitatingly ask for a
25 or 30 per cent disability pay
ment for any of his patients
who suffered from such a con
dition as is now attributed to
the President
Neither these reporters, nor
anyone else for that matter, has
any way of really knowing, at
present, whether the President
is in fact suffering from this re
ported dysentery-like condition.
One must pray that the report
is unfounded.
But in view of the far-reach
ing national importance of the
President's state of health, mere
bulletins from Press - Secretary
Hagerty are riot going to drive
away the miasma of talk on the
1944 model that is already gath
ering in the country. The very
different public presentation of
the facts concerning the Presi
dent's heart attack affords the
ideal precedent, which should
no longer be departed from in
the case of his ileitis operation.
A full and frank press con
ference by the President's doc
tors, which Press Secretary
Hagerty has persistently re
fused, should now be arranged
without further delay or equi
vocation. Copyright 1956, New York

In The Day's
Ho! Hum! What shall we talk
about today?
The choice seems to lie be
tween election year politics and
the Suez canal.
If we have to choose between
evils, let's take the Suez.
The idea of a man-made canal
to cut across the Isthmus of Suez
and save the long trip around the
Cape of Good Hope is very old.
It was first broached some 700
years B.C. by Haroun-al-Raschid,
the Caliph of Bagdad. He toyed
with the notion for a while, but
decided he could have more fun
doing other things. If you're
curious as to the "other things,"
go back and reread the Arabian
Nights. You'll concede that at
least he had a good time.
SOME 2,500 years later, Napo
leon Bonaparte took a hack at
the idea of cutting a canal across
the Suez isthmus. But, like Haroun-al-Raschid,
he had other and
more toothsome fish to fry in
cluding taking a crack at con
quering, the world.
So he passed it up.
It was Ferdinand de Lesseps, a
French engineer aand diplomat,
who finally did the job. He was
also a financier. He organized a
company with a capital stock of
about 40 million dollars, of
which private free enterprise
Frenchmen -bought a little over
half.
Turkey took a quarter of it,
various other countries bought
piker amounts out of "their treas
uries and the Viceroy of Egypt
took the rest. It was what in
these days we might caU a whirl
wind sales campaign. De Lesseps
formed his company in 1858, and
by early in 1859 he had the stock
all sold. He started throwing
dirt late in April and ten years
later, in November of 1869,' he
had it finished.
YOU'LL note the absence of
England in these transactions
when the money was being laid
on the line. Although she stood
to gain more from the bulding of
the canal than any other coun
sign the agreement, holding out
for special privileges. She came
across, however, in 1904 and
signed the agreement, agreeing
Retreat
sufficiently in touch with the
masses.
Links between the party and
the people, it was said, must be
strengthened.
This presumably meant that
there is going to be a big propa
ganda campaign to try to con
vince the people that the Com
munists really are nice people,
inclined to be democratic. Few
Poles are likely to buy that line,
but there can be no harm in
trying.
There have been other de
velopments this week which
have shown the new trend in'
Communist countries.
Czechoslovak Premier Viliam
Siroky asked his parliament
Wednesday to approve legisla
tion giviijg more authority in
administration to Slovak auth
orities. To "Improve Halations"
Siroky said the legislation
would "improve the relations be
tween the two nations." Under
the constitution, proclaimed in
1948, Czechoslovakia is "a uni
tary state of two Slav nations,
the Czechs and the Slovaks,
possessing equal rights." It al
ways has been a complaint of
the Slovaks, since- Czechoslo
vakia became a nation in 1948,
that the Czechs ran the coun
try. There was a new de-Stalinza-tion
development in Hungary
also. Premier Andras Hegedues
said in Parliament that the gov
ernment intends to give the peo
ple a better standard of living
and more liberty. He said that
improvement of living condi
tions is now the government's
main goal. He promised also
that police powers would be
curbed.
All this, it must be reported,
does not mean that there is go
ing to be a retreat in the satel
lites from Communist dictator
ship as well as from Stalinism.
But it does seem to mean that
the Reds feel they must loosen
their grip to some extent.
Paper Millmen Seek
Wage Hike a! Salem
Salem (U.R) More than 80
millmen of Oregon Pulp and
Paper Company here were on
strike today for a wage increase.
Involved in the dispute were
76 members of millmen s local
1411 plus a handful of Teamster
warehouse workers who refused
to cross picket lines.
Th millworkers failed to
show up for work yesterday
after several weeks of wage
negotiations failed.
Two pickets were placed on
the idle sash and door section
of the plant, but the pulp proc
essing division was not affected.
Millmen seek a 15-cent hour
ly increase and have refused
a conroany offer of 124 cents.
Union officials said a 15-cent
hike would put workers on a
par with plants in Portland,
Aumsville. Eugene and Albany.
They said other Salem snops
had agreed to the increase.

Frank Jenkins
try, she put nothing into the
kitty. The British of those days
were like that. Their idea was to
let somebody else put up the cash
and take the risks and if it turn
ed out all right they'd step in
and take the profits.
Their chance to get in on a
bargain basis came some 15 years
after the canal was opened to
traffic. The Khedive of Egypt,
who was a playboy of the first
magnitude like most of the
rulers of Egypt all down through
history spent his country's
treasury empty and was in a bad
way for fun money.
So the British stepped in and
took over his Suez canal stock at
an attractive figure. The deal
was put through by Disraeli, who
next after Churchill was prob
ably Britain's most famous pre
mier. MOW comes the interesting
part. '
In 1888, an international con
vention agreed that the canal
should be open on equal terms to
ships of all nations, both in war
and in peace. Britain refused to
to the original terms which
stated that no policing or fortify
ing of the canal would be al
lowed by ANY ONE NATION.
. Then, in 1914, she reneged and
put armed forces on both sides
of the canal and allowed only
the ships of- nations not at war
with her to use it.
How come?
Well, in 1914 WORLD WAR I
broke out.
When war breaks out, all bets
are off.
THAT'S where we come in.
Egypt's Nasser declares to
day that (under Egyptian owner-
shop) freedom of navigation in
the Suez canal will be GUAR
ANTEED. He says: "Both the
convention of 1888 and assur
ances concerning it in the Anglo
Egyptian agreement of 1954 are
and will be fully maintained."
Says Man on Horseback Nass-
r. . .
But
If he goes to war, he'll close
the Suez WHAM! just like the
British did when they went to
war in 191. I
President Gets Less
Than Half of What He
Sought In Congress
Washington (CQ) For the
second year running, the Demo
cratic-led 84th Congress gave
President Eisenhower less than
half of what he asked for.
Congressional Quarterly's box-
score showed that the President
batted .459 in the session that
adjourned-July 27. Congress ap
proved 103 of the 224 specific
and distinct legislative requests
made by the President in 1956.
This works out to 45.9 per cent,
or, in baseball terms, a .459 bat
fing average.
At the end of 1955 or the first
session of the 84th, Congress had
approved 96 of the President's
207 requests, or 46.3 per cent. By
contrast, the Republican-led 83rd
Congress approved nearly 73 per
cent of the President's requests
in 1953 and about 65 per cent in
1954.
Separate Requests
Not all Presidential requests
are equally important. Major
proposals, however, usually in
volve a number of separate re
quests. Thus, CQ counted nine
items in the President's school
construction proposal, none of
which Congress approved. On
the other hand, the President
secured Senate approval for 11
minor treaties, each a separate
boxscore request. The net result
tends to balance.
On the eve of adjournment.
Senate Majority Leader Lyndon
B. Johnson (D. Tex.) said the
President would get "about 75
per cent" of what he wanted,
while Minority Leader William
F. Knowland (R. Calif) thought
the President would have a
"good batting average." CQ's
boxscore is non-partisan.
President Eisenhower may be
consoled by the fact that he did
about as well as the Democratic
boss of the Senate. Last Nov. 21
Sen. Johnson proposed a 13-point
"program with a heart." CQ's
analysis showed 28 distinct legis
lative items in the Johnson pro
gram, of which Congress ap
proved only 12. So the Demo
cratic leader batted only .428.
School Program
Both the President and John
son lost out in their requests for
a school program, revision of im
migration laws, a program for
depressed areas, the Fryingpan
Arkansas reclamation project
and the Niagara power project.
Johnson likewise lost on the
natural gas bill and fixed 90
per cent price supports, both of
which passed Congress only to
be vetoed by Mr. Eisenhower.
As usual, few major Presiden
tial proposals enjoyed strong bi
partisan support on Capitol HilL
Chief of these were the soil bank
program, to cut back farm sur
pluses, and the $37 billion high
way program.
In the hauling and pulling of
1956, the President 'came out on
top in fights over public housing,
fixed vs. flexible price props and
the extension of corporate and
excise tax rates without an in
dividual income tax cut.
Security Program
In turn, he took a drubbing
over the mutual security pro
gram, when Congress cut his $4.9
billion request by more than $1
billion. And while Congress
agreed to customs simplification.
it insisted on a crippling restric
tion. Politically speaking, both par
ties probably lost out when Con
gress failed to enact the school
construction and civil rights pro
grams requested by the Presi
dent. Other important Eisenhow
er requests that died with ad
journment: higher postal rates,
for which the President had ex
pressed a "prayerful hope:" re
vision of the McCarran-Walter
Immigration Act and authority
for the U. S. to join the Organi
zation for Trade Cooperation.
Altogether, the President got
very few things he didn't want.
Among proposals actively op
posed by the President which
failed to reach his desk were the
so-called Bricker amendment, a
Christmas tree veterans bene

Canyon and a $440 million pro

gram to build atomic power re

As usual. Congress postponed
action on statehood for Hawaii
(urged by the President) and for
Alaska (pushed by the Demo
crats). The Alaskans will have
the first opportunity to express
their reaction to aU this. Their

Start of Bandwagon
Movement Seen For
AdlaiE. Stevenson
Br LYLE C. WILSON
United Press Correspondent
Washington (U.R) The Demo
cratic breakawav from former
President Truman's idea of a
presidential ticket and campaign
looks as though it might go all
the way.
Mr. Truman is a give-'em hell,
far-left-of-c enter camDaiener.
The most disputed issue Inside
the Democratic party right now
is race relations, and Mr. Tru
man did much to make it so.
The left wing of the Demo
cratic party is represented at the
top by such men as Gov. Averell
Harriman of New York, Gov. G.
Mennen Williams of Michigan
and his powerful ally. President
WaKer Reuther of the United
Automobile Workers.
Their ideas of a presidential
ticket, a platform and a cam
paign appear to be more like Mr.
Truman's than the ideas, for in
stance, of Adlai E. Stevenson.
Stevenson is committed to a cam
paign of moderation, and the old
master from Independence, Mis
souri, is not a political moderate.
There seem already to be the
beginnings of a bandwagon
movement for Stevenson. He
looks now like a winner. If his
position improves, Stevenson
will be able importantly to influ
ence the language of the Demo
cratic platform, especially the
vital plank of race relations and
integration in the schools.
A great many Democrats, In
cluding such left wing party men
as Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey.
Minnesota, also are looking for
a safe compromise plank on race
relations. But there is no evi
dence that Mr. Truman believes
they are wise in so doing. He won
election once against a bolt of
Southern conservatives, and he
