"Woman for President" Club Group Not Active This Year- By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York U.R The "Wom an for President" organization is sitting out this election year in case any politicians are curi ous. That elusive someday when voters will get a chance to de cide whether they would like to have a woman in the White House seems less imminent than it did 20 years ago. Then, freshly organized and eager for action, members of the organization moved in on both the Republican and Democratic national conventions. They had banners and buttons and sug gestions for women to run as presidential candidates. They urged the Republicans to nominate Mrs. Alice Roose velt Longworth and the Demo crats to nominate Mrs. Ruth Bryan Rhode, former congress woman and minister to Den mark. Spark Is Missing ' This year the members are staying home. A few determined members have kept the organ ization alive and listed in the Manhattan telephone book. But the spark is missing. There has been no concerted demand from any national wom en's group for action. And a few national feminine figures, in cluding Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt and Mrs. Perle Mesta, have stated that they do not feel the nation is ready yet even for woman as candidate for vice president. It will happen someday, in sists Miss Lillian Rock, the wom an" lawyer who inspired the Woman for President organ ization 20 years ago. Miss Rock simply commented in a speech at a women lawyers convention in Chicago in 1936 that someday she expected to see a woman as president of the United States. "I was deluged," she recalls.

Interest Fell Off That first flood of mail has slowed down to an almost im perceptible trickle. Women vot ers now outnumber the men, but Miss Rock has received no indication that they are clamor ing to elect one of their own sex to the nation's highest office. "I am so busy now with my own law work that I haven't had a great deal of time to de vote to the organization," the woman lawyer admitted. They definitely are not giv ing up their dream, however. They believe that the woman who eventually gets nominated can be from business, profession al or educational fields, but she must be trained as an executive. "Women," Miss Rock said firmly, "are born executives."

With the Democrats battling over civil rights and other touchy platform issues, the hopeful GOP arranged to get its own platform committee hear ings underway Wednesday with no advance rumblings or major dissension. Sen. Prescott Bush (R.-Conn.) temporary chairman of the Plat form Drafting committee, told the United Press he hoped for "harmony and unity" through out. Bush called a morning press conference to announce appoint ments to the Platform commit tee's various subcommittees as the preliminaries before the Re-, publican convention got under way. . Ike Sets Theme Mr. Eisenhower himself set the theme for the first GOP con vention ever to be held in this city with a statement in the of ficial convention program call ing on the party to "help make the bright promise of the party's future more than equal to its past." It led off the 160-page conven tion program which the Repub licans made public Sunday. At the same time, the GOP threw open its vast Cow . Palace on San Francisco's south side to Ferrell Paintings Displayed at Store Four paintings by Eugene Ferrell, Old Stage road, are being displayed this week in the window of Frake and Smith on East Main street. Mr. Ferrell is a past president of Southern Oregon Society of Artists. One of the paintings is of scenery near the artist's home, and another is of his children's toys. The group also includes a three-hour portrait of a friend. Mr. Ferrell, manager ' of Fluhrer's bakery, paints as a hobby. FROM THE SlOtSI 1 LY Burelson's in Medford thousands of precon vention sightseers who wandered through it in guided tours. The Republican National com mittee reported that 6,500 roamed through the cavernous hall Saturday and another 11, 000 Sunday. The response was typical of the historic city's interest in the first national political conven tion to be held here since 1920, when the Democrats nominated James M. Cox for president and Franklin D. Roosevelt for vice president. Despite an official cold shoul dering from Republican Nation al committee headquarters, the GOP still kept a wary eye on Harold E. Stassen's maneuver ings from Washington to dump Vice President Richard M. Nixon in favor of Massachusetts Gov. Christian A. Herter. Stas sen expects to set up shop here later this week.

PHONE 2-6428 . today, Nixon again declined to comment on Stassen's efforts but he predicted that Mr. Eisenhow er will defeat anyone men tioned so far as a possible Demo cratic nominee. Nixon Called 'EffectiTe' In Washington meantime. Rep. Richard M. Simpson (R Pa.) chairman of the GOP Con gressional Campaign committee, took a poke at Stassen with a statement that Nixon is one of the party's "most effective" campaigners. Simpson said it would be a "disastrous blow" to House and Senate candidates if the Californian is dropped from the ticket. The Republicans' sleek con vention program also featured statements from Nixon and Sen. Andrew F. Schoeppel (R. Kan.) chairman of the Republican Sen atorial Campaign committee. Nixon made no reference to his own job in saying: "The idea that government is the servant of the people is not a new idea, but the way.it has been applied for the last three and one-half years is new and we are all the .better for It." But Schoeppel, in the printed program's only reference to the possible battle for the' vice pres idency, said, "Specifically we are going to nominate at this convention the incumbent, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and our vice president, Richard Nixon." State GOP Names CampaignCoordinafor Portland (U.R) Paul Hebb of Oswego Saturday was named campaign coordinator for all statewide Republican candidates, Wendell Wyatt, Republican state chairman announced.
