MAIL TRIBUNt
"No Time
One can't blame the esteemed Oregonian for put
ting the best interpretation upon the presidential
election it can from the standpoint of the Republican
party.
Having been for nearly a centuiy consistently
and uncompromisingly "G.O.P." it would hardly
agree with the view of former Governor Sprague,
also Republican and editor of the Salem Statesman,
who comments, quote :
'It was an Eisenhower victory instead of a Republican
victory ' For the Republican party as a whole therefor
elation must be tempered with consciousness, it is in need
of a stronger 'understudy.' It must develop its junior lead
ership or the Eisenhower victory will prove short lived."
As usual Editor Sprague refuses to indulge in any
"wishful thinking." He faces the facts and uses his
head.
The Oregonian, however, refuses to give up its
cherished "Great God Zeus" complex.
It admits that the "victory" demonstrated "the
Eisenhower coat-tails have no great carrying capacity"
but stoutly it maintains that if the President had not
intervened in various and sundry senatorial races
including, of course, the Morse-McKay encounter all
the Republicans would have fared worse. It 'then
concludes, quote:
"The President's personal prestige and power have never
been higher. There is reason to assume there will not be
the great conflict some envision between the Republican
president and the Democratic congress. Even those who
have not yet been identified as Eisenhower Republicans
will surely find it difficult to withstand the magnetism of
the president's extreme popularity. Even Democrats, as was
indicated throughout the campaign will be searching for
alignment with modern Republicanism."
f ILL they?
As we see it, the above is only another exam
ple of the most extreme wishful and partisan thinking.
President Eisenhower's tremendous almost hyp
notic power over the voters in a free-for-all campaign
is ONE thing and is conceded; but his power to
charm the hard-shelled political birdies right out of
the trees in the U.S. Congress is quite another.
So long as the European crisis exists a certain
bi-partisan attitude and reasonable harmony can
and should be expected. But when these tensions
disappear, as everyone hopes will be relatively soon,
we will be greatly surprised if "Ike" doesn't find the
climate of congress in his second and final term
far different from that of his first.
This will not be due solely to the Democratic
control by any means. For unless all signs fail, the
sharp-shooting will be even harder from the ultra
conservative isolationist section of the G.O.P, includ
ing the slightly submerged but still breathing "Old
Guard" followers of Senator Joe McCarthy and "Mc
Carthyism." The Old Guard don't like the President or his for
eign policies and never have. They don't like political
submergence and impotency either.
Realizing the President will be through in 1960
and can't be the saviour of the Grand Old Party again,
they will, wre believe, soon feel free to do what comes
naturally and return to the status quo ante, when
their reactionary attitude, impelled the General to
consider seriously at one time leaving the G.O.P. and
forming a Third Party of his own.
QN THE other hand the Democrats, as a whole,
strongly opposed to the administration's "Big
Business" fixation, can be depended upon to fight the
President, whenever he yields to pressures and as in
the Dixon Yates affair, allows those who really favor
General Motors over the General Welfare, to put
something over on him.
In short while we don't deny the "magnetism of
the President's extreme popularity" as far as the
voters are concerned, we do seriously question that
General Eisenhower will be able to cast a similar spell
over the Democratic congress between elections, and
we are even more convinced there will be no stam
pede on the part of the Democrats in either body "to
align themselves post-haste
canism, whatever that
As the Salem Statesman indicates it was a great
personal triumph for Mr. Dwight D. Eisenhower, not
for the G.O.P. and the members of the Grand Old
Party should allow their elation over their landslide
victory to be tempered with the consciousness the
party is greatly in need of a stronger understudy to the
President stronger one assumes than the present
one Mr. Richard Nixon, V.I.P.
A LL of which is good sense and sound political
" advice. When in peace prepare for war, and when
in victory prepare to avoid defeat.
There was nothing in the recent landslide to justify
a feeling of complacency or over confidence in Re
publican ranks. That second largest electoral major
ity in national history, demonstrated the people, re
gardless of party, "do LIKE Ike." It did NOT demon
strate there is any such affectionate devotion to the
Republican party quite the reverse, in fact. R.W.R.
The State Results
.The most gratifying feature of last Tuesday's
election from the standpoint of this state, was giving
the old "k.o." to two time-honored assumptions. Num
ber one: the coat-tail assumption, all a candidate
has to do is- deliver a blank check of approval to
some popular leader and slide into office.
No. 2: that because Oregon has for so long been
predominately a one-party state it must so continue.
'. Both of these assumptions were killed by the vot
ers oh November 6 a case of killing two birds of
evil with' one election-stone so to speak.
And it added up to a consummation devoutly to
be wished.
Sunday, November 11, 1S5S
for Elation
with MODERN 'Republi
is.
yHE coat-tail technique, of course, may be revived
but our prediction is it will never be given the
standing it had in pro political circles in the late
"unpleasantness." If it failed to work with "Ike" it is
hard to picture it working with any other party
leader.
And that is all to the good a victory for real
democracy and good government. A "k.o." for a type
of partisanship that is both stupid and blind.
Candidates for important office should be judged
by their fitness for the positions to which they aspire,
not by the leader of party to which they belong. That
is the principle upheld by the voters of Oregon on
Tuesday last. -
AS TO No. 2: the people of Oregon certainly buried
the myth that this is a one-party state, by staging
a record breaking Democratic sweep which not only
restored the cherished two-party system for two years
at least but very likely for all time.
It can't be expected this will result in long ex
tended Republican dominance being replaced by
extended Democratic dominance. Ihis would be as
undesirable a condition as
But it can be expected that this will be a two-party,
not a one-party state, from now on and controls can
be determined not by what label the candidates may
wear, but by and large, by
abilities.
The establishment and endorsement of such a
policy is also all to the good.
A more wholesome political climate and better
government in Oregon, can hardly fail to be the re
sult. R.W.R.
Matter of Fact
IKE'S TRIUMPH
Washington If ever there
was a purely personal triumph,
it is the triumph which Dwight
!'! D. Eisenhower
Jra. has inct n.
joyed. For the
Demo c r a t i c
victories in
both houses
rlpnrlv inrit.
j. 1 President won
" I against a
""nlar 1 1 Demo c r a t i c
Joseob Alsop tide which
has been running strongly since
1952. It is a neat trick to win at
all against the tide. It is down
right miraculous to win by a
landslide.
It is highly significant, more
over, that the miracle, to the
extent that miracles can be
planned, was
carefully plan
ned by the
President him
self. Among
his associates
he never made
any bones
about the fact
that he not
only intended
to win but
that he intended to win by a
greater majority than in 1952.
That was the meaning of his
decision (which had to be modi
fied becuse of the foreign crisis)
to make a final, major cam
paign swing through th South.
The President was quite aware
that a southern swing would
elect no Rebublican Senators
and few if any Representatives.
He never had any doubts what
soever that he himself would
win, and if electing a Republi
can Congress had been his over
riding concern, he might have
devoted his final campaign ef
forts to helping such threatened
and now defeated Republicans
as Duff of Pennsylvania, Ben
der of Ohio and Welker of
Idaho.
1UT as the campaign reached
its climax, the political in
teUigence division of the Repub
lican National Committee re
ceived a whole series of reports
that the Eisenhower candidacy
was going great guns in the
South. When a southern swing
to batten down these southern
Eisenhower votes was therefore
proposed to him by Republican
Chairman Len Hall, the Pres
dent resisted at first. But when
it was pointed out to him that
his best chance of bettering his
1952 record lay in the South, he
eagerly agreed to Hall's pro
posal. He was perfectly frank with
his associates, moreover, about
the reasons he was so anxious
to increase his 1952 majority.
One reason was that he wanted
to be able to speak with abso
lute authority in conducting
American foreign policy.
He believed that, if he won
by a reduced majority after a
campagn in which his conduct
of foreign policy was bitterly
criticized, it might be thought
abroad and especially in the
Kremlin that he was not fully
master in his own house. The
President is absolutely con
vinced, moreover, that a time of
great and convulsive change is
coming for the Soviet Empire.
His reasoning is simple, and
based on his own military ex
perience. H
E HAS remarked to several
intimates that he is glad he
is not in his old friend Marshal
Zhukov's shoes. Every military
man knows, the Presdent has
said in effect, that a foreign
army cannot indefinitely hold
down a vast and rebellious
population and he is sure that
Zhukov knows it too. The Presi
dent believd that a smashing
majority would greatly
strengthen his hand in dealing
with the danger and opportu
nities of the time of great
change which he foresees.
His second reason for wanting

the reverse.
their character, record and
j. and stewd aisoP
so badly to increase his major
ity was quite different, but he
was equally outspoken in dis
cussing it with friends. A big
ger majority than 1952 , the
President reasoned, would be
an enthusiastic endorsement of
"Eisenhower Republicanism,"
and it would thus make it far
easier for him to convert his
party fully to his own brand of
middle-of-the-road conservatism.
In his little sneech to the as
sembled party workers on Tues
day night the President virtual
ly served notice of his intention
of remaking his party in the
image of what he called "mod
ern Republicanism." He has of
ten said to friends that his chief
reason for running again was
that he needed four more years
to remake his party so that it
would again be the majority
party in the nation.
TIE STILL has a long way to
AA go. The couhtry gave a ring
ing endorsement on Tuesday to
Dwight D. Eisenhower, but the
vote was very far from a ring
ing endorsement of the Republi
can party. Yet his enormous per
sonal triumph has given him an
authority in the party he would
otherwise have lacked in his
second, and last, administration.
Moreover, the Eisenhower of
1956 is very different from the
Eisenhower of 1952, when he
knew little of politics and con
stantly turned to others for ad
vice. The strategy of the 1956
campaign was most definitely
an Eisenhower strategy, and he
is now an acknowledged and
confident master of the political
art, perhaps the greatest of this
generation.
He is also a man with a habit
of getting what he wants, as his
remarkable personal triumph
last Tuesday suggests.

While Eisenhower was a cer

the Republican party. As this is
written, I do not have available
definitive returns on the Con

that the correspondents, the com

been essentially right in distin

and his party. He has had an
enormous vote of confidence.
The Republican party has not
had one.
The campaign has been clean
and decent, but not enlightening

bring on a debate, and the Presi

debating anything. Since there
was a great contented majority
behind him, he did not have to

The Parking Problem
To the Editor: No doubt many
"old timers" will recall that
Medford had a "parking prob
lem" when only a small village
some third of a century ago.
This situation was very much
improved upon the passing and
enforcement of an ordnance
prohibiting parking in certain
down-town areas for more than
one hour. Cars were then "chalk
ed" at hourly intervals and
tickets given for violation.
With the advent of parking
meters it was thought that there
would be further improvement.
Business men as well as their
employees, rather than walk a
few blocks to a parking lot, soon
found that by "feeding" the me
ters hourly, in front or near
their places of business even
8 hours parking would cost but
40 cents. (This practice is more
general than realized).
Why is it not practical to
mark the tires of cars parking
in congested downtown Med
ford? Could this not be done
with far less cost to the tax-payers
than to have City ownership
and operation of parking lots?
Even the proponents of "off
street parking measures" might
be agreeably surprised at the
available spaces in front of their
stores if their own as well as
the cars of their employees
were parked on "Free enter
prise parking lots.
A few months ago it was the
writer's privilege to take an ad
vance course in real-estate ap
praisal. A property appraised
was a three story building oc
cupied by J. C. Penney under
favorable lease. The building
was constructed of re-enforced
concrete and some 3V4 years
old modern in design and
appointments. Cost some $460,,-
000. It was decided by the class
that the very best use and oc
cupancy of the property was
that of a narking lot. Ihis would
produce more revenue for the
owners than the Penney store
lease. Yes, the removal of some
of the older buildings in down
town Medford with the lots
used for parking purposes is
not too far removed. But un

SINCE the week end the Inter
national situation may have
reached, and perhaps passed, a
very dangerous crisis. The Anglo-French
intervention in Suez
called for quick and decisive re
sults, for an accomplished fact
which created a new situation.
In fact the intervention was so
slow that in the interval before
the landings and while the Egyp
tian airfields were being bombed
the Eden government found
itself in a whirlpool of opposing
forces at home and abroad.
At this point the Soviet gov
ernment saw an opportunity
which it promptly seized. . It
threatened to intervene on the
side of Egypt, confident that in
much of the world it would find
sympathy. By this action the
Soviet government has reestab
lished its position in Egypt and
among Egypt's Arab allies. That
position would have been lost
had the Anglo-French interven
tion been a quick and complete
success.
To this dangerous threat the
Eden government has responded
by breaking off the military op
erations at a point where some
but not all of its objectives have
been achieved. We have respond
ed, as we were bound to do, by
warning the Soviet government
not to intervene.
THE best hope of the world
now lies in the plan which,
has been voted by the United
Nations, for an international
force to police the occupied ter
ritory after the British, French
and Israeli armies withdraw. The
success of this undertaking is
almost certain to depend on
whether the Soviet Union really
backs it or really opposes it.

Warns Against Trespass
Phipps warned against tres

tree cutter is required to secure
a permit from the state forester
or his agent or a federal ranger.
Each permit gives the descrip
