The supporters of Douglas McKay are getting des perate. In spite of the blessing of the White House and even circulating a picture of "Dear Doug" chatting with "Ike" at San Francisco, their officially selected "man to beat Morse" isn't getting along very well. In fact very badly. Even the Portland Oregonian's chosen poll in Multnomah shows Morse gaining steadily in the Dem ocratic party and even more surprising getting ap proximately a fifth of the Republican votes. This sur vey must mean something the Oregonian opposes Morse, of course. At that rate the former Secretary of the Interior, even with a front seat on Ike's coat tails, will not get to first base. Which only goes to prove Lincoln was right when he said "you can fool some of the people ALL the time, and ALL the people SOME of the time but you can't fool ALL the people ALL the time." You CAN'T! In their desperation perhaps one shouldn't be too hard on the McKay "shock-troops" for falling back upon that well-known dodge of the shyster lawyer, namely: "When you haven't a case abuse the attorney on the other side." Some of McKay's most respected supporters have adopted this tactic. All in all it is rather a painful and depressing spectacle, but that is the way the prospect of defeat works on certain types of mind they JUST can't take it not like good spoils at least They want to throw things mud, especially. AS a matter of fact it must have been apparent to " any voter who has followed this campaign at all closely, that while Mr. McKay has been defended vigorously, and his opponents called everything in the calender from Communists to cannibals, no real de fense has been offered against the definite charges brought against him and his federal record. Take the much-publicized Al Sarena case, for ex ample only one item in the McKay extensive "Give Away" program. Here are the main facts; not as yet refuted, to wit: Timber Land in the U.S. Forest reserve was handed over to the owners of the worked-out Al Sarena "mine" for $5 an acre when the timber not only belonged to the people of the United States but was worth one hundred times as much. Both the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Manage ment declared the mineral values in no way Justified the granting of the mineral patents. For around half a century such action would have ended the deal, by long firmly established tradition when the U.S. Forest Service said "No," in this sort of thing it meant "no." It did mean "no" during the Democratic administration, but as soon as Douglas McKay took office it did not he granted the mining patents as fast as he could, when the owners of the mine ignoring the U.S. Forest Service decision secured mineral assays in their home town in Mobile, Alabama, and appealed to the Bureau of Mines. The only defense of the above we have seen has been that the transaction was "within the law" and therefore Secretary of the Interior McKay not only had the right but was compelled by law to grant these patents, giving over US timber land on the plea of mineral rights which according to both the US Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management, did not exist. A non-sequitur if there ever was one. AS has been frequently stated in this department " there has been no denial the deal was "WITHIN the law" but as far as we have observed the placing of $2,500 in cash on the office desk of Senator Case of South Dakota during the gas bill fight was also "with in the law." We are told it was only a campaign con tribution with no strings attached, by the president of a large California oil company so why complain, there is no law against THAT. Does that mean however, that the people of Ore gon wish to send to the US Senate for 6 years a man who not only excuses but justifies such a principle and policy? Everything indicates at this writing they do not. And in taking that stand as we have so often said, they are exactly right FINALLY has there been any denial of the main facts concerning the Al Sarena deal as above indicated? If so, we haven't seen them. There has been plenty of abuse of those who make them, plenty of alibis along the line there having been nothing improper, the deal was all within the law, etc., etc., but we have seen no refutation of the salient facts and we don't expect to see them, for the simple reason they happen to be the FACTS. CO THE outstanding issue in this senatorial race is simply whether the people of Oregon, regard less of party, wish that sort of policy continued or want it stopped? This paper wants It stopped, just as it wants the "give away" program in ALL the other departments of government stopped where the issue is so clearly between the public welfare and private profit. Everything as of today. indicates a majority of the voters of Oregon feel the same way about it. This result only refers to Multnomah County. But as the Oregonian remarked editorially a few days ago: "As Multnomah goes so goes the nation." K.W.R. Tuesday, September 18, 1956 Suez Crisis For Quick By CHARLES M.

Egyptian President Gamal Bipartisan Support Given Many Measures In Congress in 1956 Washington (CQ) Although Congressional Republicans and Democrats clashed as often as they agreed in this election year, a substantial number of import ant legislative proposals re ceived bipartisan support. In a survey of ali 203 roll call votes recorded by the Sen ate and House in 1956, Congres sional Quarterly found that a majority of Democrats agreed with a majority of Republicans on 102, or half of the time. Not all of these bipartisan roll calls were of equal significance. For example, the Senate agreed to the ratification of six routine treaties in all but one instance by a unanimous vote. But well over half of the bipartisan roll calls involved substantial policy matters, several of which may become campaign issues. In Gas Bill In the Senate, for example, a bipartisan majority defeated four separate attempts to free natural gas producers from fed eral utility regulation. This was the bill which President Eisen hower later vetoed when Sen. Francis Case (R-S.D.) revealed that oil and gas interests had of fered him a campaign contribu tion. A majority of Democratic and Republican Senators turned back three efforts to make drastic changes in the electoral college system, then agreed on a com promise reform plan. Even that proposed change died, however, for lack of the two-thirds vote required for Constitutional amendments. Although both parties Jointly expressed their increasing con cern over foreign aid" by cutting more than $1 billion from the President's requests, a bipartisan majority voted down a flock of restrictive amendments, includ ing proposals to suspend aid to countries trading with the Soviet bloc, to limit cotton imports, to require the executive branch to furnish any information request ed by Congress," and to cut aid to India. However, a majority of Democrats agreed with a ma jority of Republicans to limit military aid to Yugoslavia to maintenance of equipment al- Bipartisan Support By Oregonians in Congress Reported Washington (CQ) Two Re publican Representatives John F. Baldwin Jr. (Calif.) and John M. Robsion Jr. (Ky.) shared a unique legislative distinction in 1956, according to Congressional Quarterly's study of bipartisan voting. They were the only members of Congress who voted with the majority each time a majority of Democrats and a majority of Re publicans agreed on 41 roll calls in the House and 61 in the Senate. Each thus scored 100 per cent in "bipartisan support." Top honors for bipartisan op position also went to a Republi can Sen. William Langer (N.D.). He voted with the minor ity on 48 per cent of the Senate's 61 bipartisan roll calls. Highest opposition scorer among Demo crats was Rep. Brady Gentry (Texas), who voted with the mi nority 39 per cent of the time. Oregon's Representatives Rep. Harris Ellsworth (R) scored 85 per cent for bipartisan support and 15 per cent for bi partisan opposition in 1956. His scores for the two sessions of the 84th Congress were, respective ly, 83 per cent and 9 per cent. Sen. Wayne Morse (D) voted with the bipartisan majority 61 per cent of the time in 1956. against it 26 per cent. His scores for the 84th Congress were 66 per cent and 24 per cent. Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D) had a 1956 bipartisan support score of 72 per cent, a bipartisan opposition score of 28 per cent His scores for the 84th Congress were 76 per cent and 20 per cent.

Hence the prospect is that vio lence will continue and that Field Marshal Sir John Hard ing, governor and commander in chief, will concentrate on stamp ing it out. British relations with Greece, which wants Cyprus will remain correspondingly bad. Stiffens Terms Britain stiffened its terms for a Cyprus solution last week. Alan Lennox-Boyd, colonial secretary, said in the House of Commons that Nasser's action had strengthened the govern ment's determination to keep full sovereignty over the island. He said: "All the government thinking has led to the inescapable con- ready furnished. Other Roll Calls Other important bipartisan roll calls in the Senate included confirmation of two Presidential nominations Simon Sobeloff and Paul Hoffman both of which were strongly opposed by some members of both parties. Two key amendments to the Social Security Act an in crease in the federal share of old-age assistance and the re duction -Of the retirement age for women to 62 likewise were agreed to by bipartisan major ities. In the House, a majority of Democrats and Republicans agreed to the Upper Colorado River project, federal highway and soil bank programs, exten sion of exercise and corporate tax rates, a veterans' pension measure and a civil rights bill. All but the last two became law. As in former years, both Sen ate and House went on record as unanimously opposed 86-0 and 391-0 to the seating of Commu nist China in the United Nations. (Copyright 195S, Congressional Quarterly) In The Day's I reckon we'll have to talk about Suez again. There is al ways the possibility that this Egyptian ruckus might end in war and avoiding, war is the GREAT problem of this genera tion. Besides a red hot new pro posal has been tossed into the works. rpHE PROPOSAL itself is bas ically simple. It calls for an association of the principal governments whose ships use the canal. This associa tion would provide pilots (navi gation of the canal is a compli cated job requiring great skill) and would collect tolls for the ships. The tolls would be SHARED with Egypt, whose government would OWN and maintain the canal itself. The Western Big Three (Bri tain, France and the U.S.) would seek to line up 15 other coun tries, all of whom want the canal operated Internationally, to back the proposal. Egypt would then be asked for its prompt coopera tion, without long diplomatic negotiations. SO MUCH for the proposal. Here comes the BITE: To test Egypt's attitude, a ship from one of these countries with a veteran Suez pilot on deck would ask permission to enter the canal. If Egypt refuses per mission which she is expected to do she would then be ac cused of violating her pledge to keep the waterway open at all times to ships of every country. THE PROPOSITION seems to have considerable soap on it. At any rate, it sent Man on Horseback Nasser into an imme diate conference with his hench men in Cairo. The conference lasted late into the night. When it broke up, Nasser re mained mum, but an Egyptian "spokesman" branded it at once as a "provocation leading to war against Egypt." He said it seems intended to PROVOKE EGYPT TO FIGHT. Nehru, buddy of Rus sia and Egypt, denounced the plan. All this indicates that the pro posal is a smartie. If it had been dumb. Nasser and his 'crowd would have laughed it off scorn fully. YOU WILL note, of course, that we Joined with the Brit ish and the French in making the proposal. Does that mean that if it, should lead to war with Egypt we would be dragged in? SECRETARY DULLES (who is generally credited with de vising the scheme) told reporters at a press conference held in Washington the United States has no intention of "shooting its way through the Suez canal" in the event Egypt should block the passage of ships. He added that in such an event the U. S. wou'.d favor diverting its ships around Chance elusion that recent events in the Middle East have underlined what we have always said that Cyprus is vital for the protec tion of our strategic interests and the strategic interests of the free world. Lennox-Boyd specified that Britain must maintain full con trol of internal security in Cy prus, as well as control of for eign affairs and defense. Draws Up New Constitution In mid-July, Prime Minister Anthony Eden gave Lord Rad- cliffe, a high-ranking judge, the task of drawing up a "new, lib eral constitution for Cyprus. Under this constitution, Cypriots would have been given internal self-government. Radcliffe is still drafting his report. But the Suez dispute has made the question of self-government one for the far future. "EOKA" the Greek Cyprlot organization which is conduct ing the campaign of violence in Cyprus, demanding that the is land be given to Greece, called a truce on August 16. It suggest ed new negotiations. Harding's reply was to offer the EOKA extremists a chance to lay down their arms. He said his offer would remain open for three weeks. Under it, members of the EOKA organization who surrendered would be permitted to go to Greece and become Greek citizens. Calls Off Truce EOKA rejected this offer and called off its truce. Violence was resumed. Harding's amnesty offer ex pired on Sept. 12. He said that he would intensify a drive to stamp out violence. There would be no new attempt at a political solution of the Cyprus issue until the drive succeeded, he said Even before the harding offer expired, the situation was com plicated by a new development. Britain charged it had evidence that Greek Orthodox Church Archbishop Makarios was the real leader of the EOKA organ ization. Makarios had led the campaign for the union of Cy prus with Greece. He Is in exile on an Indian Ocean island. As of now, the Cyprus situa tion is farther than ever from a solution. News by Frank Jenkins Africa, regardless of the higher cost that would be involved. rIPLOMATIC informants" in " Washington (meaning VIP's who are in the know but decline to be identified by name) say the U. S. would be willing to ship substantial quantities of Western Hemisphere oil to Europe to off set any temporary shortage cre ated by the long haul around Africa. These sources add that dollar loans to Britain, France and other countries affected by the longer, costlier oil haul from the Middle East would be consid ered by us to help meet the ad ded cost of buying oil from dollar areas. T ET'S not kid ourselves. In this cold war period, shooting war can start at any time when Russia feels that she is ready for it. But In that event Russia won't need any pretext. If she feels that she is ready to start con quering the world, she'll Just start shooting. In the meantime, however, capable negotiating is IMMENSELY important. If shooting war can be stalled off long enough, it may never come. Congressional Quiz' 'Copyright. 195 Congressional Quarterly) Q The federal budget surplus (income not spent) for the 1956 fiscal year was $1,754,000,000, the Treasury estimates. Thus fiscal 1956 was the fourth year since 1930 that the government has realized a surplus. How many of the other three years can you name? A Fiscal 1951, when the surplus was S3.5 billion; 1948, S8.4 billion; and 1947, $754 million. Q The 84th Congress this this year set a higher limit on the public debt than the per manent statutory limit. It round numbers, what is the total pub lic debt: (a) $125 billion; (b) $275 billion; (c) $350 billion? A (b). The debt was about $275 billion as of Aug. 30. 1956, according io the Treas ury Department. The debt limit approved by Congress in 1956 was $278 billion; the permanent limit. $275 billion.

Matter of Fact ey HARLEM Harlem, New York City The big, asthmatic Negro woman leant heavily against the door of her cell-like room on the second floor of a rickety 19th century slum building. Through thin walls came the sound of fur ious argu ment, follow- Stewart auop ed by the thud of something thrown, and sil ence. A 40-watt bulb glowed eerily down the long haU, bare ly illuminating the scratched and scabrous walls. A black cat arched against the woman's leg. looking up with blank, suspic ious eyes at the unfamiliar white faces. "We live in these rat traps," the woman said dispassionately, without rancor, gasping a little for breath, "and nobody cares. and there's no hope for us, at least as far as I can see."

Wayne Morse Was Right To the Editor: Douglas McKay remarked on a local television program two weeks ago about the several honest newspapers in Oregon and mentioned among others, The Eugene Register Guard. It is not my intention to dispute any degree of honesty or dishonesty with these dailies, for that is a matter left to their political consciences and indi vidual code of principles to de cide. I do think, however, that Mr. McKay could be courteous enough to feel this way about those that do not necessarily agree with and support him politically. I am very happy to see that our ex-Secretary of Interior does agree that Morse Was Right, for in the March 5, 1956, edition of the Eugene Register Guard, that was the exact head for their editorial: "Morse Was Right." It concerned the Sen ate's seniority system in select ing Sen. James Eastland to be come the chairman of the Judi ciary committee, to fill the va cancy created by the death of Sen. Harvey Kilgore. Only two senators, Wayne Morse and Herbert Lehman, were opposed and pointed out that a man prej udiced against the best interests of the civil rights program, as Mr. Eastland surely might well be, would not therefore consti tute a wise choice as chairman of this very powerful commit tee. Among other functions it passes upon appointments to the federal bench. Mr. Eastland incidentally, is the Senator from Mississippi. The Register Guard concluded this editorial by saying "This is one time we are proud of his (Wayne Morse's) stand and wish there were 46 more like him and Mr. Lehman." Here is another example of the courage and high degree of principle that is so much a trade mark of Senator Morse. Here he voted against the majority of both Democrats and Republicans on an issue he knew was con cerned with the highest moral right, which of course it was. Even the Eugene Register Guard agreed in this particular matter and so must Doug McKay, for as everyone knows, honesty is truth and he did say that this paper was honest! This instance is another trib ute to the true statesmanship and constitutional liberalism of Wayne Morse. A constitutional liberal seeks to put into legisla tive practice the human rights guarantees and the private prop erty guarantees of the constitu tion itself. What higher aspira tions and practice could any U.S. Senator have? Ken Corliss, 1564 Myers Lane, Medford, Ore. August O&C Sales Valued at $1,128,468 Portland (U.R) The Bureau of Land Management reported today that timber sales during August on O&C and Coos Bay Wagon Roads lands in Oregon administered by BLM were val ued at $1,128,468. bringing the total for the first two, months of the 1957 fiscal year to $2,336, 419. The Oregon State Supervisor of BLM, Virgil T. Heath, said 36,110,000 board feet of timber were sold during the month in the five O&C districts. Of that total, salvage timber accounted for 11,455,000 board feet. Sales from public domain lands in Oregon totaled 3,279r 000 board feet with a value of $159,955, Heath said. All 48 of the states grant some form of property tax ex emption to institutions maintain ed for educational, religious or charitable purposes. if ji Stewart Alsop nd no doubt of the Negro sections of other big cities to which sufferers from excessive complacency ought to be ex posed. The Harlem slums make you wonder whether the North's smug assumption that only the backward South has failed to solve the problem of the Negro minority is soundly based. They even make you wonder if all our boasts about the American stand ard of living are entirely Justi fied. THE big woman's cat was not a pet. It was a necessity. In the slum apartments in Harlem, you always find a cat or two, for protection against the (warm ing rats and mice, and usually a dog, for protection against two legged enemies. This is one of the small discoveries made by tnis reporter and Louis Harris, the public opinion expert, in an expedition of political Inquiry in Harlem. There are other discoveries to be made. Most Americans go through life without ever meet ing an adult fellow American who cannot read or write. But in the Harlem slums, illiteracy is not uncommon. One grizzled old man, a recent arrival from the South, said earnestly that he wanted to vote before he died, because "voting makes a man a real citizen." He had tried, but had been turned down because he couldn't write his name but now, he said, "I've learned to print my name pretty good, and do you think they'd take Just printing?" AS you talk to people in the Old hltilHinfc In th rtnrlr nnl littered hallways, you some times hear a chance remark which sheds a grim light on Harlem slum life. There was the high-strung, well-dressed man on the fourth floor of a con demned house. He said he had to get out of there he Just couldn't stand it any more. He paid $50 a month for his mis erable rooms, but that wasn't the main reason. "All night long they're running up and down the stairs and fighting and jumping from one roof to another." Occasionally you come upon grotesque, Hogarthian scenes. There was the young girl lying on a couch, her face to the wall, her body oddly crumpled, whose only response when we tried to question her was to curse and throw a pillow at a whimpering child. More often, we were asked hospitably to come in and have a seat, and we saw around us a pathetic attempt to live decently under impossible conditions, to rise above the grimness of the surrounding poverty. Fortunately, the Harlem slums are only part of the Harlem story. It is an extraordinary ex perience to cross a street from a slum area, and go into one of the low income housing projects precisely like moving out of the dark into the light. TN THE projects you find hard- working and often intelligent people living decently, in a kind of colorful and noisy austerity, in small, clean apartments. The difference is not in Incomes the project apartments are often cheaper than the slum rooms. A sailor- in a project explained: "Housing changes people. In a good place, everybody tries to do a little better, like I tell my son, even if you are a Negro, if you want to do something, like say you want to be a doctor, you can do it." Or go to a good private apart ment house, like the Metropoli tan Life Insurance Company's Riverton Apartments, and you find people living in consider able elegance. You also find that they are often far better inform ed politically than their eco nomic equivalents in a white community, and remarkably ar ticulate. There are political similarities between the three categories of Harlemites, the slum livers, the project livers, and the small upper class of Negro intellect uals and opinion formers. Above all, in all three categories there is an amazingly large and solid bloc of convinced Democratic voters. But there are marked political differences too, which will be described in a second report on Harlem, and which could have real political mean ing for the future.
