MAIL TRIBUNE
Support 'Wayne Morse
The concerted drive, by air, TV and newspaper
advertising to convince the people of Oregon that
their senior Senator is not an honest man is certain to
fail.
And for one excellent reason it just ISN'T true!
And any fair-minded person who really knows
Wayne Morse, or will carefully examine his record,
will agree that Oregon has never sent to Washington
a man who has been more scrupulously faithful to the
Shakespearean admonition than he, to wit :
"To thine own self be true.
And it must follow as the night the day.
Thou canst not then be false to any man."
We have known Wayne Morse, both as senator
and Dean of the Oregon Law School, for over 20 years
and there have been times when we disagreed with
him, (as we do now on certain minor details), but we
have NEVER known him to be anything but entirely
and completely honest, true to himself and true to his
convictions, popular or unpopular too strongly at
times, perhaps, for his own political good, but unfalt
eringly. "TAKE his change of allegiance from the Republican
to the Democratic party for example, and later
from General Eisenhower to Adlai Stevenson. We
happened to know something about both, for we at
tended the Republican convention at Chicago in 1952,
and we were in Washington, D.C., when the question
of leaving one major party and supporting the other
was under serious consideration. We know something
of the terrific inner struggle that was going on within
the Senator at that time. We also know how reluctant
Morse was at that time to break with his own party,
and how clearly he realized and at that time said, that
if he did so he might very well be ending his public
career. He finally took that chance.
DUT JUST as he could not be true to himself and
support the late Senator Taft's isolationism
against what he regarded at; the time as General Eis
enhower's "liberalism and enlightenment"; so when
in his judgment General Eisenhower for the sake of
gaining votes and party unity, surrendered to the Taft
forces, and abandoned the liberal viewpoint on both
the issue of "McCarthyism" and public power, Morse
felt that it was not a case so much of his deserting the
Republican party, as the Republican party, under its
new leadership, deserting HIM.
THE QUESTION before
it a innrl-if rr TfAnfr f
the question is whether the senator was true to him
self and his beliefs, or false: whether he was honest
or dishonest, in arriving at his conclusions?
As indicated above, we fail to see how any un
biased person with any understanding of the man and
his record could for a moment question the integrity
of the former, and the basic honesty of the latter.
THERE have been many sneers and cynical innuen
does by the senator's old-time enemies, regarding
his slogan of placing "principles above politics."
But- that is PRECISELY what Wayne Morse has
done.
That doesn't mean he hasn't changed his mind as
conditions have changed ; any more than it means he
hasn't changed his parties. He had a perfect right to
do either or both.
It does mean that whenever the issue at the Law
School or in the US Senate was between what Morse
believed in and what he did NOT, Senator Morse
never hesitated he ordered full steam ahead to the
RIGHT, and "Damn the torpedoes."
TfHAT is the type of man, this paper believes, Ore-
gon "the state that flies with its own wings"
should have to represent it in Washington. He has the
keenest mind and the strongest fighting heart, that
the voters of this state, have ever had the wisdom and
the courage to select.
It is hard to believe they are going to fail him at
this crisis in his career. R.W.R.
A Postscript
As a postscript to the above the following post
card inquiry appears appropriate :
"How could Senator Morse claim to be a good Democrat
, today when only two or three years ago he claimed to be a
regular Republican? I mean how could anyone believe him?"
MO ONE could if that term "regular" is used to mean
1 " a 100 percent partisanship on either side.
' But we never heard Senator Morse claim that. He
was not a "REGULAR" Republican or a good one
and was not so considered by Republican state lead
ers when he was elected a member of the Oregon GOP
delegation to the Chicago convention. In fact, the Re
publican -regulars on that delegation ganged up
against him, held a caucus and denied him the right
of free speech and to represent the state on the plat
form at any time during the session. His crime then
was not only his outspoken opposition to Taft isola
tionism, and his strong support of General Eisenhow
er, but his all-around failure to conform and insistence
on speaking his own mind. The boys then at Republi
can "GHQ" just did not trust him to say the PROPER
thing.
Perhaps the state leaders of the Democratic party
may sometime far in the future feel the same about
Senator Morse, an extremely independent person.
But as the Democratic party is fundamentally the
liberal party of freedom and tolerance, we never ex
pect that to happen, and don't believe any political
commentators outside of the Union League club do.

Ignorance
To the Editor: A prominent
Chicago lawyer once said "The
only darkness in this world is
Ignorance." I think he is 99
per cent right. The man or
woman who is eligible to vote
and does not take advantage of
his or her constitutional right at
the polls is plain ignorant, un
reliable and a poor citizen. By
voting we get and keep the
right kind of people running
our country.

I Like Ike
To the Editor: Those of us
who remember the days of
Presidents Coolidge and Hoover
must admit that President Eis
enhower has held his own with
the backward looking leaders
of his party far better than the
two former Republican presi
dents did, all three good men.
But I fail to see what our
country is to gain by our losing
our heads over the personal
charm of Ike and electing him
to office to try to reform the
Republican party.
We need two parties, but why
not now elect a man with so
many of the qualifications of
progressive leadership for all
our people, that we may go on
with other forward moving
countries?
Let's let the Republicans have
another four years to get their
own house in order.
Ike is a fine man, has served
his country well, and has earned
the chance to retire to his farm.
By training and experience he
is a fighting man, and as I see
it is now in the position where
he must fight elements in his
own party as well as the opposi
tion, a task suitable only for a
superman.
Why should we be so heart
less and ignorant as to elect him
to that task when there is a
better and more civilized way
for us to go?
We have decided that nations
should settle their differences
without fighting it out, why not
the same for our own national
affairs?
Have we not arrived at the
time where we recognize human
values with the chance for moral
and spiritual growth for all.
above the contest of wit and
wiles for the selfish acquisition
of money and material wealth?
Of course we have need of the
latter, but in their proper place-
Ike is a fighting man by his
training and his lifes experi
ence, no one can stop him but
the Grim Reaper, or the ballot
on Nov. 6 next.
I believe four years ago Ma
mie said her greatest longing
and wish was for a home of her
own. All her married life she
had moved from one Army post
to another, with never a place
she could call a home of her
own.
I feel sure when we elect a
younger man to carry the load
of our highest office that Ike
and Mamie wiU be the two hap
piest persons in our country.
Happiness and Good Luck to
them, they have earned it.

The Fluoridation Campaign
To the Editor: Sometimes I
wonder what a man from Mars
would think if he could observe
the fluoridator's campaign.
There has been name-calling.
character and professional stand
ing annihilation, suppression of
the truth, deception, misappro
priation of funds, and persecu
tion and ridicule of those who
dare to oppose. The tone for this
type of procedure was set at
the health conference called by
the U.S.P.H.S. in Washington .in
June 1951 for the purpose of in
structing health leaders how to
promote fluoridation. The as
sumption on which the entire
conference was predicated was
that the individuals of our coun
try and especiaUy those of the
Parent Teachers rssociations are
saps. A perusal of these pro
ceedings would expose the falsity
of the claim for fluorine. I have
a copy of these proceedings and
any one is welcome to read this
astounding document at my
home at any time.
I am sure that many readers
will remember the scourge of
etched windshields - we had in
the valley six or seven years ago.
People observed the lines as they
appeared on the glass but could
not see what was causing them.
They were caused by minute
particles of fluorine air-borne
into the valley from the alum
inum plants near Portland. That
fluorine is a very active and a
very potent poison is verified by
the precautions always given
when it is sold as rat poison.
You are urged to prevent inhala
tion by wearing a damp cloth
over nose and mouth. It must
not be aUowed to touch the skin.
It must not be stored near food
or clothing. If any is spilled it
must be carefully swept up. In
spite of all this evidence of its
violent character Dr. Dotter
claimed to swallow a tablet on
his TV program Friday evening
But when he was presented with
a real fluorine tablet in the after
noon he refused. Of course the
object of this stunt was to re
move fear of this violent poison
from the minds of our people,
a most dastardly aim. There can
be only one way to first build
and then preserve teeth and that
is by proper food and drink. This
the man from Mars would dis
cuss. He would deplore the
deception and wonder why the
U.S.P.H.S. had not stressed true
health education.

Save America's Forests
To the Editor: Had Oregon's
Senator Mitchell realized, seen
ahead, to what those political
corrupters listed in "Looters of
the Public Domain" Jim Hill,
Weyerhaeuser, Thomas Walker,
C. A. Smith, et al would do to
Oregon and other Western states'
forest, soil, water, wildlife, it
seems reasonable to believe that
for the paltry sum of $25 each
he criminally OKd a ialsified
Homestead Entry or Timber and
Stone Act paper, that he would
not have sanctioned it. Nor is it
reasonable to believe that had
the Oregon Legislators seen
what was soon to destroy the

Approves The Morse Record
To the Editor: The paid pitch
men who make the spot an
nouncements on the radio for
McKay tell us that Seih Morse
has "one of the most appalling
records of absenteeism in the
Senate." But the statistics in the
impartial "Congressional Quart
erly" tell us something quite
different. They clearly show that
Sen. Morse's attendance record
is better than average, and cer
tainly better than the average
for Republican Senators.
On the few occasions when
Sen. Morse has been absent be
cause of illness or necessary out-of-town
committee work, he has
usually been paired on the votes
taken. This means that his vote
cancelled out the vote of another
Senator who also was not able to
be Dresent. Sen. Morse has been
present or paired on 93 per cent
of all roll-call votes taken in the
12 years he has served. This is
high above average. In 1955, the
last year for which figures are
available. Sen Morse was "on
the record" (present or paired)
for 99 per cent of all roll-call
votes. In 1952, the "Congres
sional Quarterly" listed him
among the 20 Senators with the
highest attendance records.
McKay's outraged radio huck
sters tell us that Sen. Morse has
been absent for over 100 roll-
call votes. But they fail to point
out that he has only missed 100
votes out of over 1,300 roll-call
votes taken in 12 years. This is
an unusually low record of
absenteeism and would be lower
yet if the votes the Senator miss
ed during his extended hos
pitalization in 1951 were subr
traded.
The implications in these spot
commercials are often inexcus
ably misleading. The roll-call on
giving the vote to 18-year-olds
is a typical example. It is im
plied that Sen. Morse was' op
posed to the bill or did not care

Sales Tax Scored
To the Editor: How -many of
the voters of Oregon realize they
will be voting on the sales tax
measure again this year? .
The moneyed interests of the
state, plus those who would
benefit from lush state jobs.
have been trying only to have
it defeated again and again.
But now they have conceived
a sly way of shoving the sales
tax issue in by way of the back
door. And by this I mean the
insidious proposal called "State
Tax Laws," which is No. 1 on
the election ballot. The state
tax officials in Salem are so
sure they have completely
fooled the Oregon voters this
time that they are already fight
ing among themselves as to
which department will get this
sales tax money and which will
get that. For instance, the sales
tax money on new cars is already
being fought over between the
highway department and the
state general fund.
A 45 per cent surtax plus a
terrific property tax was slap
ped on us last year to scare us
into voting for the sales tax
However this excessive taxation
backfired on them. By this I
mean the large surplus of funds
it brought into the state treasury,
The various departments and
agencies in the state, upon learn
ing of this big pot of gold,
couldn't wait to get their cotton-
pickin fingers on it. They have
ballooned their budgets for the
coming fiscal year far beyond
what would normally be needed
And so it goes, as in most
governments. The more they get
the more they want. Let s call
a halt to this ever increasing tax
ation and misrepresentation
Don t be misled by these back
door shennanigans Vote NO on
the "State Tax Laws," No. 1, on
the Ballot.

Third Step
To the Editor: I certainly liked
Mrs. William CarriUon's com
munication Oct. 10 on "What is
a man worth?" But in her state
ment that "it is necessary for a
man to do good and love God to
enter the kingdom of heaven,
it is too bad she omitted the third
necessary step to entering not
only heaven, but a closer walk
with God while on earth.
For we read in Romans,
"There is none righteous, no, not
one, and in Isaiah we read, "All
we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned every one to his
own way, and the Lord laid on
him the iniquity of us all." So
the remedy for this we find in
Jesus's words in St John, "I am
the way, the truth, and the life;
no man cometh unto the Father,
but by me;" and in Acts, "NeU
ther is there salvation in any
other; for there is none other
name under heaven given among
men, whereby we must be
saved.
Mrs. Carrillon said that m
some men the spirit of God is
very dormant, but it is there.
And how is this dormant state
awakened? By the individual re
ceiving the Holy Spirit at the
time of repentance and accept
ance of Jesus Christ as personal
Savior. For we read m Romans,
"But if the spirit of him that
raised up Jesus from the dead
dweU in you he shall also quick
en your mortal bodies by his
spirit that dwelleth in you.
And this time of personal de
cision need not necessarily be
reserved to the. confines of the
altar caU. It may be in the home,
by the side of the road, or wher
ever you are, preferably with
the prayerful assistance of a min
ister or other working Christian.

domination.
In Gomulka, Tito will have a
valuable ally. If they work to
gether, the whole trend of world
Communist philosophy is due
for a change.
But it is important to remem
ber that both Tito and Gomulka
are still hard core Communists.
They are both willing to co
operate with Russia on their
own terms.
Those terms are that Tito
and Gomulka must be free to
run Communist governments on
their own lines.
Neither Tito nor Gomulka
wants any interference frdm the
United States or any other
Western power.
It is likely that, in the United
Nations, Yugoslavia and Poland
wUl continue to vote generaUy
as the Russians do on issues
which arise between West and
East.
The big development from the
Western viewpoint is that, with
the Polish rebellion, the "Soviet
bloc" of countries is breaking
up.
Aggression Becomes Remote
Any threat of Russian aggres
sion against the West has be
come increasingly remote.
It has always been question
able whether Russia could de
pend on the armies of its satel
lites to fight, with any spirit,
an enemy which the Kremlin
selected.
Yugoslavia had has its own in
dependent army since Tito
broke with the Kremlin in 1948

REPUBLICAN STATEMENT
The Republican platform stems
from the warm ideals, the sound
ideas and the confident spirit of
President Eisenhower. It reflects
his sincerity and his faith. It is
both a record of action and a
promise of action to come for
the benefit of the entire econ
omy, good will and good times.
President Eisenhower has
proved that the federal govern
ment can cut taxes and deficits
and yet provide a growing abun
dance of both warmhearted pub
lic services and . hard-headed
economic programs. He has prov
ed that the American people can
have record job security and per
sonal well-being without nurse
maid government, reckless infla
tion or the waste and agony oi
war. Under his inspiring leader
ship, business, labor and gov
ernment can now and hereafter
work together in getting the ut
most in full power from the pri
vate enterprise machine.
This platform dedicates tne
Republican party to the main
tenance and further expansion of
these achievements. It gives the
American people a chance to
look at the record and project it
into the next four years. The
record shows that we dropped
needless controls and let our
competitive economy do the job.
We made great strides in getting
the government out of competi
tion with private business, and
more of this had to be and can
be done.
We have the greatest new
plant and equipment program in
history the highest employment
on record the highest average
wage the highest standard of
living the maintenance of uie
Durchasing power of the dollar.
Let no one be deceived, howev
er. These things do not just hap
pen and they do not endure with
out constant vigilance. Prosper
ity is never just luck. Without
the right kind of government
and the right kind of elfort in
our free enterprise system, down
can come business, labor, and
all.
The Eisenhower administra
tion has developed a healthy and
friendly climate for all business.
This climate must and can be
maintained.
Real wealth is created when
the factories and mills of our
country produce in ever increas
ing quantity the things whicn
our people need and want if they
are to continue and to improve
on the highest standard of living
ever known. Nineteen fifty-five
was the greatest year in our eco
nomic history and 1956 moves
steadily to a still higher plane.
Why has our gross national pro
duct risen to more than $400 bil
lion? Why have our people more
disposable income than ever be
fore? Why does practically every
economic measurement we use
reflect this continuing improve
ment?

Russia
Now Poland undoubtedly wiU
have its own independent army.
Whether Russia will have
much confdence now in its War
saw military alliance seems
doubtful.
This alliance was formed in
Warsaw last Jan. 28 in answer
to the Allied North Atlantic
Treaty Organization. It provided
for unification of the armed
forces of Russia, Poland, Hun
gary, Czechoslovakia, Romania,
Bulgaria and Albania.
But Poland has sort of pulled
the rug from under the entire
alliance.
As regards Communist philo
sophy, Tito announced soon after
his break with Russia that he
remained a 100 per cent
Marxist.
Gomulka, likewise, remains a
dedicated Communist.
Tito has disclosed that his
break with Russia really started
during the final stage of World
War II when he started to re
sent Josef Stalin's dictatorial
methods.
Gomulka's resentment of Rus
sian arrogance also dates back
to that time. It is being recalled
that when the Germans were
driven from Poland, Marshal Ni- ,
kolai A. Bulganin, now Soviet
premier, was military governor
in the temporary capital of Lub
lin. Bulganin summoned Gomul
ka, a member of the Lublin gov-
ernent, to his headquarters. Go
mulka refused to go. "Come over
and see me some time," he sug
gested. And Bulganin went.
the unnaralleled confidence
which the American people have
in the President and in the rec
ord and principles of his admin
istration. This record and these
high principles are reflected in
the Republican platform, which
points America's way to another
four years of peace and prosper
ity under the able, constructive
and enlightened leadership of
Dwight D. Eisenhower.
DEMOCRATIC STATEMENT
Taxes take a big bite out of ev
ery man's income, but the rich
can stand it much better than
the rest. Yet the Republican ad
ministration boosted the tax bill
of the many and reduced in
spite of soaring incomes the
tax bill of the few.
In 1954, under a Republican-
controlled Congress, federal in
come and other taxes were cut
by $1.4 billion per year. Who got
the major benefits? Corporations
got 73 per cent; families earning
more" than $5,000 18 per cent;
and families earning less than
$5,000 (four-fifths of all families),
only 9 per cent. In other words,
those who needed it least got the
most relief; those who needed it
most got the least.
A key feature of Mr. Eisen-
hower's 1954 tax program was
an $850 million tax bonanza for
corporation stockholders. But
92 per cent of American families
own no stock at all; many of
tnem are mortgaged to the hilt
and can barely make ends meet
For every dollar of tax relief
for coupon clippers there was
less than a nickel for working
mothers, a little over a penny for
families with foster children,
and about a penny for consum
ers buying on the installment
plan.
A family collecting $500,000
in corporation dividends saved
$75,000 a year from the Eisen
hower tax program, but a work-
ingman's family saved about
$2.30 a week.
Democrats stand for tax relief
for the many, not for the few.
They propose raising personal .
exemptions on the federal in
come tax from the present $60
to at least $800. They will give
relief to lower-income taxpayers
first
This is the only fair way to
handle the tax system to each
according to his ability to pay.
