Nixon the other day he declared, quote : "The Issues don't amount to anything, it's the votes that count." Needless to say we can't speak officially for the GOP candidate for the senate WHAT an assignment that would be! but our belief is he meant just what he said. A CCORDING to Peter Lisagor who reported the " Eugene meeting for the Portland Oregonian and the Chicago News this extraordinary statement did not make much of a hit with the audience nor wTith the guest of honor Campaigner Nixon, who had pre pared his speech on what he considered the main issues. Lisagor called it a "disarming remark" and "the bouncy little gent straight out of Sinclair Lewis' Main Street," gave little comfort to Nixon who was waiting in the rear of the hall to make his "pitch." Well it might be added, to quote again, "the bouncy little gent" is giving porters, and increasing comfort to his opponents, for every time he speaks his vote-getting batting average goes down, and the batting average of the man he so detests, Oregon's senior senator, goes up. This is not according to any Democratic figuring, but the figuring of McKay's staunch supporter, the Oregonian, whose special poll compiler declares if the election occured today Morse would beat McKay by from "29,000 to 32,000 votes." Well that is quite a bunch of votes to lose, or win back, in the five or six weeks remaining before the ! ballots will be counted. Unless something unforseen occurs the Oregonian s bouncy little gent from Mam Street just can t make it RUT to return to that extremely revealing statement, " As remarked we see no reason to doubt that for mer Secretary of the Interior meant exactly what he said. For to him the issues don't count. He doesn't want to count them. For on tidelands oil, through Al Sarena to the exploitation of our natural resources instead, of their conservation, Douglas McKay has been wrong, and no one realizes it better than he that if he' agreed to debate the issues involved in his effort to oust Wayne Morse and take the seat for himself than he i3 today which as So he says there are no be brought up don t amount to him is all tnat counts. . YkJELli we have to hand T for his candor. For a per cent coat-tail candidate passenger could hardly be imagined. The issues to such an aspirant are of no importance, but getting votes by capitalizing on the personal popularity of General Eisenhower is impor tant, and that is all Mr. McKay has done and appar ently all he intends to do, until the finish line is reached. TN ANOTHER one of his A ept remarks a few weeks ago, Candidate McKay was equally revealing and his supporters when he said the "people of Oregon were still yackety-yacking about Tidelands oil," and that he would probably get in his own state for he had always been for states rights, etc., etc. We don't believe any close observer of the political scene in Oregon as of today would dispute this con fession of weakness. But it must have come as some- thing of a shock to the rabid Morse-haters, to have their specially selected and officially anointed candi date admit it. Such admissions just aren't done in the midst of a hot campaign in the Upper Echelons of the Grand Old Party, however. The Big Chiefs may think it at times, but they don't SAY it. AND there is another thing they don't say. Accord- mg um i!Jcviai uciauvc ill tile iiauuuail.albui) they don t say what they really think about Mr. Doug las McKay, both as a Republican Secretary of the In terior, and as a candidate for the U.S. Senate. They are stuck with Mr. McKay and are going to stick by him. But as Secretary of the Interior Seaton remarked during his western trip in support of his predecessor, "I can assure Al Sarena case will ever HIS administration. If it was so virtuous and legally compulsory, why shouldn't it?

McCANN United Press Correspondent The East Asian "neutralists" are not doing so weU at the mo ment. Both India and Indonesia. the No. 1 and No. 2 neutral ists, are doing a bit of diplo ma t i c back peddling. Indi an Prime Min ister Jawahar lal Nehru, who rushed to the support of Egyptian Pres- Charles M. McCajin ident Gamal Abdel Nasser in the Suez Canal dispute, is hav ing some sober second thoughts. ne is trying with evident anx iety to get Nasser, whose bellig erent attitude he encouraged, to be a little more reasonable.

There is talk in Jakarta, the Indonesian capital, of a cabinet crisis. Abdulgani may well lose his job.

Suspicious of West Officially, the party line is that the neutralist countries pur C" Communications Not "Rock 'n' Roll- To the Editor: A recent article on the front page of your news paper had this headline: "Rock n' Roll Riot Sends 15 Service men To Hospital." Reading fur ther I discovered that apparent ly a large amount of beer had been consumed at the dance, and in the fifth paragraph I find that the battle apparently started over a remark made to a girl by an enlisted man. It seems logical to consider that the riot started as a result of these two circumstances, and not because of the music. I consider your article to be a prime example of unfair, bias ed journalism. On the whole yours news coverage is very fair but your narrowmindedness on this subject is typical of a large segment of our adult population. I am sure that if you made a study of the numerous dance hall brawls of say 20 years ago, you would be forced to admit that they were not caused by "rock 'n' roll" music either. David Mack, (teenager and proud of Route 2. Box 489 Gold Hill, Ore. it) Stand by Wayne Morse To the Editor: The Republi can bosses in Oregon are trying to use the party lash to whip the voters in line against Wayne Morse. In 'this they will meet with dismal failure. The voters of Oregon are not servile slaves to be dictated to. The voters are free born, inde pendent, American citizens who on election day vote for their own interests and who will stand by the man who stands by them. That is U. S. Senator Wayne Morse. Get on the Democratic band wagon, and remember the Maine election. Charles W. Sherman, Kerby, Ore. Supports Humane Bill To the Editor: Humanitarians will hope that Senator Neuberger will have a long life in the Sen ate. Many times he has volun teered to fight cruelty to animals. Senator Neuberger testified for the Humane Slaughter Bill, S.1636, which was enacted in the Senate. Neuberger declared that packers who could not make a profit without cruelty should go out of business. Congressmen continue probe of packers de spite politics and even while the Democrats were assembling in Chicago, members of the House Agriculture committee were making a field study of cruelties in slaughtering, going to the kill ing floors of packing plants to see for themselves what is done to animals. The congressmen saw the use of the brutal pole-axe on cattle. They watched while fully conscious hogs, calves, lnbs and sheep were knifed. This study of slaughter house methods will continue during the congression al recess and new bills will be introduced as soon as Congress meets again. So if you would enjoy your hamburgers and pork chops, please write our Senators to sup port this humane legislation. Paul Harvey, American Broad casting company commentator. reported these congressional studies during his broadcast of Aug. 12 and expressed hope that the Congressmen would press for a humane slaughter law this win ter. Senator Morse is also sup porting the legislation, but I have yet to hear what Mr. Douglas McKay's stand Is on the bill. Maybe some humanitarian Re publican will let us know. Mrs. Ruth Johnson Pacific, Hwy. South Phoenix, Ore. Nations Finding It to Back-Pedal a Bit sue foreign policies independent of the great Western and East ern "power blocs." In practice, however, it near ly always happens that the atti tude of the neutralist nations in big international problems favors the two great Communist powers, the Soviet Union and Communist China. One reason is that the chief neutralist nations, newly inde pendent, are extremely suspici ous of "Western imperialism" and "colonialism." Whenever there is a clash of interests between the Western democracies and the Communist nations, the neutralists incline to take it for granted that the democracies are wrong. Thus Nehru lost no time in approving Nasser's attempt to seize sole control of the Suez Canal. He said in a speech that the Western allies were running "a grave risk of war" when they announced their plan to form a Suez Canal users association. Not long afterward, Nehru apparently got the idea that Nas ser was doing some risking him self. He sent V. K. Krishna Menon, his roving ambassador, to Egypt to urge Nasser to be reasonable. Visits Saud Now Nehru himself has gone to Saudi Arabia, Egypt's Arab neighbor, to visit King Saud. In Indonesia's case, Sukarno and Foreign Minister Abdulgani Praises Nurses To the Editor: I want to write a note of commendation on the conscienciousness of the nurses' aides at Sacred Heart hospital, especially the fourth floor. I am not very good at this, but I have been a visitor and patient both. Especially one, she wouldn't tell me her last name, but always a smile or joke for you, never gripes if extra work is needed, tries to carry her work with dignity. She makes you laugh if there is a way to do it. Seems tireless. Her first name is Anna I can't describe her genUe, kind, forgiving way and nature. Her way with old people, js marvel ous. I know she is doing tour hours special now. Loyal to hos pital and Sisters. I live in California. God bless Nurses' aides, the teachers and Sisters too. Mrs. George Geober, Pasadena, Calif. A Man Without Fear" To the Editor: Senator Morse's swift, personal acceptance of the long distance challenge of three Eastern Oregon big shots to "de bate anyone" regarding the Sen ator's worthiness to represent Oregon in the U.S. Senate, must have plopped like a cold, wet fish in the center of the boister ous trio's rosy dream. The three challengers (two lawyers and a business man) set up the condition that they must have two fuU weeks to prepare their debate (probably so they could re-read and memorize the by now dog-eared passages of the current GOP propaganda textbook, the so called "Docu mented Record of Senator Wayne Morse.") They doubtless banked on their challenge being accepted by some lone Morse supporter with more courage than educa tion, so that their three-against- one debate would be assured of the proper verdict in the press. Instead, here comes the head- spinning, ear-ringing acceptance by the Senior Senator himself, who is surprisingly (to them) eager to answer for his own rec ord even under fixed and hos tile conditions. To quote his acceptance of the challenge: "I personally wiU come to Malheur county at an arranged time to debate accord ing to your challenge or any other issues with any one of you or all three of you at once, Douglas McKay himself, or any combination of persons you may desire. I would prefer a question that would compare the records of McKay and myself." It brings back the words of Eleanor Roosevelt when she spoke in Medford at the Roose velt Memorial Dinner in April: "I have never felt that Senator Morse was afraid. He is a man without fear." Mary Greicor Kelly, 906 West Fourth St., Medford, Ore. Southerners' Comments To -the Editor: We arrived here expecting Medford to be our "home" for a week, bought your paper, saw the letters by Mrs. Poole and Mr. Strickland. We are so glad we bought the paper before checking in at hotel, for surely we would not be welcome. The hotels, restaurants, filling stations and stores would have received quite a bit from us in a week, as there are six in our party You are welcome to the Pooles' and Stricklands. We prefer the colored people. Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Jackson and party, Charleston, S. C warmly praised Russian leaders during their -visit to the Soviet Union. They saw Russia as a peace-seeking, friendly, demo cratic country. But Abdulgani went over board in his joint communique, which he and Soviet first Depu ty Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko signed. The communique emphasized the "solidarity" between Russia and Indonesia. It stressed iden tity of views on disarmament, anti-colonialism. Western de fense pacts and the testing or use of nuclear weapons. Five of the eight parties in the government coalition pro tested. The cabinet, at a special meet ing, ordered Abdulgani to sign no more communiques during his tour of Europe and Asia. It was announced that he would be questioned about the Moscow communique when he got home. Ai.d it was intimated he might be invited to resign. In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS I was absorbing a quickie sandwich at a drug store counter the other day being a little short on time for a more ex tensive luncheon. The segment of the counter at which I sat was presided over by a teenage youth who was obviously some what less than thrilled with his job. He kept stealing glances at the clock, and eventually the hands reached a point that mark ed some kind of an epoch for him. He shrugged his shoulders and muttered to his next door neighbor on the working side of the counter: "Boy." Another hour of this grind and I'll be through. "Then I can begin to LIVE!" rpHE poor kid! -- I couldn't help feeling sorry for him. Not because of his weariness, because I couldn't believe that the hours of his shift that had elapsed up to then had left him over-wearied. He hadn't been putting steam enough into his efforts for that. What I pitied him for was his BOREDOM with his job. Nothing is more terrible than boredom with one's job. And nothing is more wonderful than such com plete absorption in the job you are doing that the minutes and the hours slip past unnoticed and the arrival of quitting time leaves you with a faint feeling of regret. That is LIVING. Being bored to extinction with your job is mere existing. T'HE more I see of life espec-- ially the kind of life lived by this poor kid who could hardly wait for his work shift to end so that he could get away from his job and begin to LIVE the more impressed I am with one of our modern devices for placing young people in jobs. I am referring to aptitude test ing whose purpose is to find out what kind of work people have a natural learning for. In creasing years of experience in dicate that these tests are supris- ingly accurate. Employers who use them are finding that it seldom pays to go against the findings of the test. rTHIS is of great value, of course, to the employer for the cost of training a worker for a specific job Is rather con siderable. When it turns out that he isn't FITTED for the job the time that has been expended in training him is wasted. But it isn't the employer I am thinking of at the moment. The TRAGEDY of such a misfit is in the life of the worker himself. He is condemned to years of boredom in a job he isn't fitted to fill. That Is real tragedy as witness this youngster at the lunch counter. -" ' If wider use of aptitude test ing can prevent even a reason able number of these tragedies, it wiU be wonderful. A LL this moralizing reminds me of another teenager I just happened to notice a few days ago. He was crossing the street on his way to high school. It was a busy intersection as approaches to our schools are coming to be in these days when our youngsters come in auto mobiles and school buses Instead of walking, as their grandparents did. This boy was strolling across the intersection READING A BOOK. On all four sides of the crossing, cars were stopped. On two sides, traffic was piled up for half a block back waiting for him to get across. He looked neither to the right nor to the left as he put one foot leisurely before the other on his way from curb to curb. His eyes never left his book. TJE WAS probaly putting on a show. But I hope not I HOPE the book he was reading was a good book, filled with informa tion, and that he was so engros sed with the' knowledge he was acquiring that he didn't even notice what was going on. Knowledge is a splendid thing. It adds so fabulously to the fascination of living. No one can ever have too much of it. Matter of Fact sy stewan aisoP THE EISENHOWER AURA Des Moines, Iowa Those Democrats who are already be ginning to count unhatched chickens and there are a lot of them ought to have followed Dwight D. Eisenhower around during the hours he spent here. the day before Adlai Stevenson's appearance. The experience might have proved a rude shock to their complacency. In a brief speech at the air port, Eisenhower remarked that the crowds that lined the streets to see him and Mrs. Eisenhower were a turnout such as we've never seen before." Veteran re porters agreed with him. But the vast, good-humored crowds which lined the streets were only part of the story. A more important part was the Eisenhower aura, the effect he has on people. It is a very special sort of aura, exclusively his own. Unlike Franklin Ro osevelt or other great politicians, he inspires, instead, a genuine personal affection. Above au, he cheers people up. VOU only had to look at peo--- pie's faces after he had passed by to see that this is so. They looked as though they bad had a good tonic. They looked cheer ful, amused, and happy, they were almost all smiling. It is interesting to watch Eisen hower closely, as he passes through a crowd, and try to analyze the special quality of the aura. The smile Is part of it, of course. But a kind of shy-seem ing earnestness Is another part. And. still another is a sort of "aw shucks" manner, as though to say, "I don t know what you people are making such a fuss about me for." At the national plowing match, which was the President's most important port of call row of children had been lined up 10 meet mm. They were nervous, standing awkwardly at attention in the way that child ren have on such occasions. But the President talked to them ser iously, without condescension, in the manner of a man who really likes children, and they were immediately smiling and at their ease. A T THE livestock show, when -rl he asked about such matters as the average number of piglets per litter, he sounded genuinely interested in the answer which. like any other amateur farmer, he no doubt was. And in the two brief speeches he made one at the plowing match and the other at the airport he display ed conspicously his great asset as a public speaker, the ability to seem to mean what he says. What he said was certainly not very original, and not even very interesting. Another politi cian who talked, as the President did at the plowing match, of "the Editorial Comment MORE THAN ONE NIGHTCRAWLER? The Southern Pacific company In Medford, is trying to justify its abandonment a year ago of passenger service from Eugene to Roseburg, Medford and Ash land. The southern Oregon peopli are miffed, but SP says it has lost shocking amounts of money, because cars, buses and planes have spirited off the trade. The railroad, strangely, admits it can't compete. We've looked at the company case for abandoning the 30-mph train called, without love, the "Nightcrawler." We rode it on its last trip and it is not mourned as such. But we wonder about the firm's attitude on its main line The Cascade now is booked up days ahead. Even in slack sea. son, in-state passengers are told that the train is not for them. Agents in no uncertain terms say that it is a long-trip train and point out that someone who wants to ride only 100 or 200 miles is allowed only to fiU slack seats. Reservations must be con firmed four or five hours in ad vance, in person, by the plead ing short-tripper. The Shasta isn't so bad. But it doesn't run frequently enough. We've heard the reasons for this lousy service. The reasons are good as far as they go. We agree that with the present as signment of equipment and the present schedule, things can't be helped much. But why not improve them? Or is the Willamette valley to be another Nightcrawler line in a few years?Albany Democrat-Herald. DR. ROBERT L.

But the President sounded as though he were deeply dedicated both to peace and to the plow. Another politician who talked, as the President did at the airport. about how he always "thought first about the interests of all 16S million Americans," might have aroused cynical snickers. But the President aroused, in stead, to judge from the reaction of the enormous crowd, sym apthy and belief. No-one who saw him in action here, in short, could doubt for moment that the Eisenhower aura is far and away the Repub licans' greatest asset. It remains to be seen, of course, to what ex tent the almost universal liking for the man will be translated into votes. This reporter had a chat with a master-plowman who had just been congratulated by the President for his prowess. He s a fine man, a great man, said the master-plowman. still a bit starry-eyed. "Then you're going to vote for him?" he was asked. "Well, uh, no, I guess not," the master-plowman replied. NO DOUBT there are others like the master-Dlnwman. But surely there are many more whose "I like Ike" is translated their minds into "I'll vote for Ike." That raises the ques tion of how the Eisenhower aura. as the central Republican asset, is to be exploited. The question is particularly important since the President's two Illnesses. Many in the huge crowds that turned out here must have come to see for themselves how the President looks. He looks well. Indeed, part of the Eisenhower aura is a certain ruddy vigor, far more apparent in person than on the television screen. THUS there will surely be heavy pressure on the Pres ident to repeat his triumph here in Iowa for his day here was indeed a personal triumph. The pressure will come, of course. from Republican politicians who want to benefit from the aura, but it may come also from with in the President himself. For he very much wants to win. And the pressure will mount if the indications increase as they have been here, where polls show Aldal Stevenson steadily closing the gap that his win ning is no sure thing. (C) 19S6.
