MAIL TRIBUNE
. Lincoln Never Said It
We are indebted to the Corvallis Gazette-Times
for pointing out some of the
which through the years have been so popular at Lii
coin Day banquets.
Here are some of them, quote:
1 "You cannot .help the poor by destroying the rich."
2 "You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the
strong."
3 "You cannot lift the wage-earner by pulling down
the wage-payer."
4 "You cannot establish sound security on borrowed
money."
5 "You cannot really help men by having the govern
ment tax them to do for them what they can and should
do for themselves."
Naturally the Gazette
and congenitally Republican, regrets that the revered
founder of the "'Grand Old Party" did not have the
foresight to anticipate Roosevelt's New Deal and de-.
liver himself of such soundly conservative sentiments.
In fact they represent to the G.-T. what it regards as
"five of the fundamentals on which the party should
base its economic platform."
DUT presumably after doing a bit of research the
Corvallis paper felt compelled to admit that these
"terse precepts" were originated not by Lincoln but
by a Rev. William Boetcher in the presidential cam
paign of 1916, and later were officially credited to
Abraham Lincoln by the Republican National Com
mittee. However the matter was appealed to the Libra
ry of Congress which found no evidence whatever to
justify any such claim and it is fair to assume that if
this highly' efficient research organization could find
no such evidence, none exists.
THE Gazette Times was very disappointed. But why
cYi "Mil A if Virt -W -" r V fiVl O 1 a-i-P Vt f T 1T1 -- TOTT
( 11 JlC CAKb JIL UWliaU Ui U1C XJXllJill saj
orators.
For these apocrypha, as far as Abraham Lincoln
is concerned can still be used by the Republican Na
tional Committee and by the G.O.P. convention as far
as that is concerned in its platform, with or without
giving the proper credit to the Rev. William Boetcher.
In fact the Mail Tribune can find nothing particu
larly to disagree with in these five political tenets.
e
POR example, who, in politics or out, thinks the poor
r can be helped by DESTROYING the rich?
Who WANTS to destroy the rich anyway?
According to reliable statistics even though "Mod
ern Republicanism" has taken over the basic princi
ples of the "New Deal" there are more millionaires
and multi-millionaires in the present G.O.P. adminis
tration and throughout the country not even includ
ing Texas today than ever before in the country's
history.
We have never heard any Americans outside of
the dwindling Communist party express any wish to
destroy them and the "Commies" want to destroy
everything.
TO SLIGHTLY paraphrase Governor Averell Harri
man of New York himself a multi-millionaire
we would say:
"The rich are here, they have their place only they '
should be kept IN it."
That is good sense. The boys and the girls in the
"Upper Brackets" DO have their place, and an impor
tant one, but that doesn't mean they should run the
country.
Neither does it means that what is best for General
Motors is NECESSARILY best FOR the country.
The country of course should be run by the peo
ple ALL the people via majority rule and the se
cret ballot regardless of their economic status, rich,
poor or in between.
N FACT the only declaration in this program, the
soundness of which we would question is No. 4
namely, that:
- "You- cannot establish sound security on borrowed
money."
That is ridiculous.
You CAN do it, and hundreds of thousands of peo
ple in this country and throughout the capitalistic
world have done and are doing it. The United States
government would go out of business tomorrow if it
didn't do it.
Of course the money borrowed must be paid back
and with interest, but we doubt if there is a big busi
ness in the country that did not get its start and estab
lish its security by borrowing on its credit. That is
what banks are for. '
THE final item:
"You can't really help men by having the government
tax them to do for them what they can and should do for
themselves." '
But this is just another truism and as an issue an
absurdity.
There is no influential group in the country re
gardless of party, that would favor giving financial
aid to ny citizen or citizens able to earn money and
support themselves.
This is not to claim there are not abuses in the sys
tem of the "welfare state." There are abuses in any
system, just as there are wastes in any system. But
anyone who knows anything about welfare and its
administration on the local, state or national level in
this country, knows also that those who can make the
grade without outside aid, have an extremely rough
time getting it.
The trouble with the Rev. William Boetcher and
his follbwers, we believe, is failing to understand and
profit by the important distinction made by Chief Jus
tice Warren of the U.S. Supreme Court when he drew
a sharp line between "creeping socialism" and CON
STRUCTIVE and needed social PROGRESS.

around the world look ahead
at the news that will make
the headlines.
Summit
West European diplomats look
for Russia to bid for a Big Four
summit conference after Presi
dent Eisenhower meets the Brit
ish and French prime ministers
late this month. That may be
one reason why Andrei A. Gro
myko was made foreign minis
ter to succeed Dmitri T. Shepi
lov. Premier Nikolai A. Bul
ganin and Communist chieftain
Nikita S. Khrushchev would be
the chief delegates. But they
would need a trained diplomat
like Gromyko to steer their
course. Shepilov is a propaganda
expert, not a diplomat.

Sit-Down Strike Was
Used 20 Years Ago in
General Motors Firm
By LYLE C. WILSON
United Press Correspondent
Washington (U.R) Twenty
years have slipped by since the
left wing of organized labor im
ported the sit-
down strike
technique
from France
and stopped
great assem
bly lines of
General
Motors.
- .Like Gettys
burg, Stalin-
Lyle C. WUson grad or Mi(J.
day, the decisive battle of the
CIO to organize General Motors
generally is conceded to have
taken place in Flint, Mich, in
December-January-February . of
1936-37.
On Feb. 11, 1937, GM signed
the agreement which ended a
44-day Flint sit-down. From that
agreement developed the United
Automobile Workers of Amer
ica. (UAW) organization in GM.
Sen. Pat McNarmara (D-Mich.)
in the Senate a few days ago
said:
Mr. President, 20 years .ago
this month, there took place in
Flint, Mich., events that mark
ed the launching of a new bill
of rights for the industrial
worker.
"From these strikes came rec
ognition of the UAW by Gen
eral Motors Corporation; and
from that recognition was born
true collective bargaining, a new
standard of living and social
justice for the workers in the
auto industry."
No Quarrel From Reds
None is likely to quarrel with
McNamara's estimate of that sit
down in the Flint Fisher Body
works, the Communist Party of
the United States least of nil.
The Communists, in their na
tional publication, The Worker,
commemorated the Flint sit
down Sunday in a nostalgic ac-

He Had Everything
To the Editor: All of us are
interested in taxes. They are a
national disgrace. More and
more taxes, more and more pro
grams, more and more social
benefits. Some needed, some def
initely not needed.
I have been reading with in
terest the big bonds, big plans,
big needs and big building pro
gram for -our school systems, in
our own county and all over the
country. I can't help wondering
how much of it is really needed.
I definitely do not like any more
federal money spent on our
schools because where federal
money goes there also goes fed
eral power and we have lost too
much local control in everything
already. As I read these articles
of the school needs I am remind
ed of an article I have in my
scrapbook which gives a lot of
food for thought. It reads as fol
lows: A Boy's Handicap.
The litUe boy wrote that he
had no chance like Lincoln, for
Lincoln had so much more than
he and he enumerated: "It's no
wonder.
Look what he had to make him
great:
He had that log cabin.
He had that pine knot,
He had those rails to split.
He had that tall plug hat,
He had all those stories.
He had that Douglas debate.
He had that Civil War to win,
He had that Gettysburg speech,
He had everything
To make a man great,
And look what I got
Not one of those things."

500 men. Some of its ground-to-

Certainty .
Washington says the House of
Representatives will overwhelm
ingly approve this week Presi
dent Eisenhower's request to
keep present tax rates on busi
ness and consumers for another
year. Without congressional ac
tion, taxes of corporation in
come, liquor, cigarettes, automo
biles, etc., would lapse April 1.
Federal revenue would drop
nearly $3 billion a year. "We've
got to vote for it," a lawmaker
said. How could we explain to
voters why we cut liquor taxes
and didn't cut individual income
taxes?"
Sanctions i .
The administration is trying
nearly frantically to ayoid a
showdown on "sanctions"
penalties against Israel for
its refusal to quit Egypt's Gaza
count of events in the first year
of the second Roosevelt admini
stration when organizing labor
had been heavily infiltrated and
in some instances was being led
by notable members of the
Communist Party.
Wyndham Mortimer, vice
president of the struggling
UAW, was a Communist closely
associated with Bob Travis,
UAW leader in Toledo, Ohio,
The Worker recalled in discuss
ing the Flint sit-down.
"Who were the people in the
Flint strike," the paper con-J
tmued, with initiative and
leadership? They were mainly
an active core that Moritmer
and Travis had built up. But it
was people with a Socialist con
sciousness and association with
the Communist Party and the
then-leftist Socialist Party of
Michigan who stood 'out in key
positions. ,
Reuther Brothers Mentioned
"While the major leaders at
Fisher (a' GM plant) were Com
munists, the group that led the
sit-down at the Chevrolet plant
were mainly Socialists. Later,
the three Reuther brothers, then
Socialists, came to Flint to join
Mortimer and the other CommU'
nists in the leadership. Walter
P. Reuther now is No. 2 man
in the merged AFL-CIO."
- The sit-down strike was a de
vice by which employees quit
work but remained in the plants
days and night, resisting evic
tion. It was a deadly effective
strike weapon, especially if the
courts and the executive, as in
Michigan, "rejected company
pleas that their properties were
being occupied illegally.
Weight Reduction
Class Is Planned
. Plans for weight reduction
classes in Southern Oregon have
been announced by the Oregon
Heart association.
It is expected that three or
four classes in Medford and one
in Ashland will be formed. Par
ticipants may be either male or
female, more than 18-years-old
with an overweight problem, ac
cording to association officials.
All participants must be referred
by their physician.
Last year a similar program
was held in southern Oregon.
More than 60 members lost more
than 700 ppunds, and many of
the group continued to meet
after formal classes were termi
nated, officials said.
The classes are sponsored by
the American and Oregon Heart
associations due to the fact there
has been an increase in the mor
tality rates of '.heart disease in
people who are overweight, it
was reported. "
There is no charge for the
classes.
Neuberger Point To
Hells Canyon 'Hoax'
Washington (U.R) Sen. Rich
ard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.) said
today that Secretary of Interior
Fred A. Seaton has exposed in
advertently a "gigantic hoax" in
the administration's handling of
Hells Canyon. '
The administration originally
authorized the Idaho Power Co.
to build three small dams to de
velop power along the Snake
river. Seaton recently said fur
ther study should be made of a
proposed high storage dam at
Pleasant Valley which, if built,
would flood, out one of the three
Idaho Power Co. sites.
"Seaton's action," Neuberger
said, "is clear cut evidence that
at least one of the- three Idaho
Power dams is not the best pos
sible development."
PIANIST DIES
Los Angeles U.R) Josef Hof
mann, 81, celebrated pianist and
prolific composer, died Saturday
in a sanitarium of a heart ail
Strip and Aqaba coast. It's not
solely because, it's a hot rjotato
politically. Officials remember
how the failure of - sanctions
against Italy for its attack on
Ethiopia helped doom the old
League of Nations.
Doctrine
Look for the Eisenhower Doc
trine resolution to pass the Sen
ate by a bigger margin than had
appeared possible. The reason:
iisenno er s decision to go
along with the Democratic word
ing of the measure instead of
his own. The altered wording
will not weaken the warning to
Russia that the United States
will fight if necessary to halt
Communist advances in the Mid-
die East. The resolution should
pass next week, after some hot
debate.
Help For Gromyko .
West German business men
are pressing Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer hard to negotiate a
trade treaty with Russia, Ade
nauer has refused to enter one.
He wants Germany unified first.
But he may be induced to agree
to some sort of informal trade
"agreement" instead of a formal
pact.
Safer Safeties
Automotive experts are angry
over published reports denounc
ing safety belts as worthless in
most accidents. Experts say the
reports are based on flimsy evi
dence and loaded statistics. But
they do predict that manufac
turers may be required to make
belts conform to rigid standards.
Some complaints about present
belts have been due to faulty,
cheap construction.
Sports Outlook
If plans for a new professional
football league materialize, look
for the 12-member National Pro
fessional Football League to ex
pand to several new cities in
time for the 1958 season. The
league voted last month against
expanding prior to 1958. But
that action probably would be
annulled if plans for a new 18-
city league went through. Buf
falo, Miami, Minneapolis
Louisville, Kansas City, Dallas,
Houston, Denver and Seattle all
hope to get franchises in one
league or another eventually.
But they'd rather get into an
already established one.
In the Day's HeWs
By FRANK JENKINS
Let's-spend-more money note:
U.S. Secret Service Chief
Baughman" says . in Washington
he's in favor of getting a more
private home for the President
of the United States.
- He tells a house appropria
tions committee that as it is now
the President can't roam through
the White House or stroll oh the
lawns during public visiting
hours. (If he tries to get a little
time to collect his thoughts by
strolling around the place and
fussing with a flower here pr
straightening a picture on the
wall there, he'll trip over a bug
eyed delegation from Podunk.)
Baughman adds that "security
would be tighter" 'if the public
were excluded from the Presi
dent's residence.
TRUE enough maybe.
But-
When the White House life
gets too rugged the President
can go golfing or quail shooting
in Georgia. And on the golf links
or in the quail fields he probably
gets more time to straighten out
his thinking than he'd get in a
fancy multi-million dollar new
residence in Washington.
And
. It costs the taxpayers less.
HERE in Oregon we've battled
for years over whether we
should have or shouldn't have
a governor's mansion.
So far, we've got along with
out it.
I can't help thinking we'll be
better off if we KEEP ON do
ing without it.
SOONER or later, everybody
gets the idea that he ought
to have a nice summer home at
the beach or in the mountains.
So he goes out on the limb and
gets himself one.
Result:
He soon discovers that for the
money he has invested in- his
fancy summer home he could
spend his vacations at the best ,
motels and come out ahead on
the deaf.
SPEEDING up the mails note:
Postmaster General Sum-
merfield thinks push-button mail
service is just around the corner.
In his annual report to Presi
dent Eisenhower, he says the
post office will be using auto
matic sorting and cancellation
machines by next year.
UMMMM! ' ;
D'ya reckon these fancy
machines will enable Mr. Sum
merfield's outfit to get a regular
postage letter from the point of
mailing in San Francisco or Port
land to the point of delivery in
southern Oregon in less than j
three days?
If so, it would be nice.

Matter of Fact stewon aisop
WHAT IS "MODERN
REPUBLICANISM?"
Washington In the six
weeks during which the 85th
Congress has been in session, a
signiii cant
pattern has
become evi
dent. There
are big differ
ences between
the majority
Democrats and
the Adminis
tration on for
eign policy
bigger than
Stewait Alsop
ever before. But there are really
no basic domestic issues at all
which are in dispute between
the Administration and the
Democratic party as a whole.
The plain fact is that the
dominant northern wing of the
Democratic party is absolutely
desperate for a vote-winning
issue, and for a simple reason.
In every domestic area where
they might have hoped to make
votes schools, health, social se
curity, the soil bank, roads, civil
rights and so on the Adminis
tration has forestalled them with
its program of "modern Repub
licanism.
The Eisenhower administra
tion, in fact, has now conscious
ly accepted the basic thesis of
the dominant wing for the gen
eral welfare. Marion Folsom,
the able, conservative-minded
Secretary of Health, Education
and Welfare, said as much in a
recent little noted but import
ant speech:
' "We say the Federal govern
ment would fail to serve the
people's interest if it stood idly
by, indifferent to broad defici
encies in neaitn, education, or
economic security . . . we believe
the Federal government . . . can
and should act in these fields
for the benefit of all the peo
ple." .
"POUR years ago, when the Ei-
senhower administration took
office with a domestic program
which differed in no important
respect from the program of the
late Sen. Taft, such a flat, un
equivocal acceptance of the
basic thesis of the welfare state
would have been considered a
major heresy.
One would have expected a
thunderbolt to strike a Republi
can cabinet officer who boasted,
as Folsom did in the same
speech, that "the level of Fed
eral activities in (the welfare
fields) is higher than ever be
fore." Yet what Folsom said
was true. His $3 billion budget
makes Oscar Ewing, his Left
wing equivalent in the Truman
administration, look like a piker.
' By the same token, four years
ago one would have expected
Secretary of Agriculture Ezra
Taft Benson to prefer being
struck by a thunderbolt to de
fending a program first proposed
in essence,- amidst hoots of de
rision, by Henry Wallace. Yet
the enormously costly soil bank
scheme is such a program.
Tour years ago, the Eisenhow
er administration line was the
budget would and could-be held
to $60 billion. Instead, Federal
spending in the non-defense field
increased by S7 billion in the
first, four Eisenhower budgets.
Four years ago, the talk was all
about, getting rid of "the New
Deal deadwood" in the govern
ment Yet the total number of
government bureaucrats" out
side -the Defense Department is
actually higher under Eisenhow
er than Truman.
SUCH facts suggest why' the
liberal Democrats have hard
ly anything left to talk about.
Yet the conservative Republi
cans who are beginning to mut
ter that the Eisenhower version
of "modern Republicanism" is
simply the New and Fair Deals
over again are wrong. One dif
ference is suggested by the dif
ference between men like Mar
ion Folsom and Ezra Benson,
and men like Oscar Ewing and
Henry Wallace.
The Administration is staffed
from top to bottom with men
who, like Benson and Folsom,
are deeply conservative in their
outlook. "Modern Republican
ism" is thus, if you will, a ver

sion of the New and Fair Deals,
but administered by conserva
tives and that is a very big
difference indeed.
There is another difference.
Although the dollar costs of
non-defense spending have risen
sharply, such spending as a pro
portion of the total national in
come is sharply down. In this
sense, "modern Republicanism"
is also cheaper than the New and
Fair Deals. .

ism"
"modern Republican
is very close to the
formula found long ago, and
successfully exploited ever since
by Britain's Conservative Party
take over the opposition's pro
gram, cut thg cost, and admin
ister it conservatively. In this
sense the parallel is encourag
ing. But there is another way
in which the parallel is not en
couraging. While non-defense spending
has increased by $7 billion in
four Eisenhower years, defense
spending has dropped by almost
as. much. Thus "modern Repub
licanism" is being financed large
ly at the expense of national de
fense. Britain's prewar con
servative governments adopted
a similar system of priorities,
and almost destroyed the con
servative interest in Britain in
the process. . ,
