o o O O J8T MEDrORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Mondiy, March 18. 197 fruman Urges Free World To Close Ranks To Meet Threat From Russians (Continued from Pig 1) And there is a third area in which we lace immediate and serious trouble and that is in South East Asia and in the Far East, which are in political fer ment, and where newly indepen dent nations are being preyed upi by the Communists. There is a grave development in Indo nesia where the rich natural re sources and remarkable skill and aptitudes of the people have already exposed them to Com jnist encroachments. The hope of democratic development there is threatened, exposing at the same time the free nations of Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, and Thailand. For Indonesia is so situated geo graphically that it could serve a. a springboard for intrigue and subversion against this perimeter of free nations by the Commun ist masters of China and Russia. Wants Personal Leadership In view of these great dangers, 1 hope the President at Bermuda will henceforth exercise per sonal leadership in the conduct of our foreign policy. It is im possible, under our system of government, to conduct foreign policy successfully by delegation of the President's personal pow ers and responsibility. No matter how able the individuals to whom the President may attempt to delegate his powers, it usually leads to confusion and misunder standing with foreign govern ments and with our own Congress and people. When I called in Dean Achcson to name him Sec retary of State. I said, half se riously, to him: "Dean, you are going to be Secretary of State, bj, you will not be the Presi-der-jj I have no intention of being my own Secretary of State at any time, but under the Con itution only the President has the power to make foreign pol icy. I will exercise that power. I expect you to come to me with your recommendations. I will make the final decisions which the Department is to carry out." This policy, faithfully carried out, helped reduce the margin of misunderstanding both with foreign governments, which were kept closMy informed, and the Congress, which was always consulted and briefed in strict bipartisanship. Opportunity To Resume Control Therefore, beginning with Ber muda, the President has an op portunity to resume personal control which is so essential to restore to the United States its position of world leadership of the free nations. At Bermuda, I hope the Presi dent will undertake to bring Britain back into full partner ship for our mutual benefit and security. I cannot subscribe to the contention of some of our experts and self -designated prophets that Britain and France are in decline and no longer can be depended upon as major pow ers. Those experts would have us abandon historic friendships on the ground that we must now seek out new and rising nations with which we could build more firmly for the future. If I re member my history correctly, the Duke of Wellington and Lord Russell foretold the end of Brit ain in the 1840s! This was sheer nonsense in the 1840s. It is sheer nonsense now. The greatness of Britain and France call for no defense from me or anyone else. Their contri bution to democracy, industry and science, apart from their culture, are so enormous as to as sure theif continuance as im portant factors in civilization for centuries to come. They have come through two terrible wars at enormous sacrifices with their democratic institutions and their cultures standing firm. We should and will do everything in our power to give them en couragement and support, as much for our own lakes as for theirs. Historic DeYelopment A historic development is now taking place in Europe the putting into action of an age long dream of an economically united Europe in which Britain and France would play import ant roles. Many of the historic trouble spots in Europe would vanish once this dream becomes a reality. This would help us to encour age other evolving areas of the world to make use of their re sources for their own benefit and the common interest of the peoples of the world. Let no nation take advantage of the awakening of Asia and Africa for purposes of aggran- j dizement and exploitation, or i set into motion new alignments of power and rivalry. In a world ' of so much undeveloped re- j sources and riches, there is room ; and opportunity for all nations ! to thrive and for all peoples of ' all colors to achieve their right-1 ful dignity and place among men. . j Betrayed Ignorance At the Potsdam conference in 1945, Stalin turned to Churchill in my presence, after the Brit ish Prime Minister had made some comment about the Pope, and asked cynicallly, "How i many divisions ha the Pope?

Cacb article Is a summary ol an actual report. The ramlly Council does not give advice: it merely reports on problems that bay been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Mr. B. M. My son doesn't re spect me. Pat M. He' thinks he's Hora tio Alger. Mr. B. M. I come of a very poor family and by my own ef forts I built up a highly success ful business and gave my family every advantage that I did not have. Now I find that my son has no respect for me. Pat is 25 and he recently came into the business. Natural ly he thinks he knows more than his father because he has the education I couldn't get. He has come in with the idea that he is going to revamp my business from scratch. He is full of theo ries, but has no experience and is constantly getting into trou ble. Then he goes crying to me to get him out. That isn't the worst of it. When I am not around, he talks about "the old man" to my busi ness associates in a way that makes them think I am so out dated I don't know what the world is about any more. I would tell him to get out on his own if I didn't feel so sorry for him. He's such a young fool he'll make a mess of anything he undertakes. e Pat M. Dad thinks he's Hora tio Alger, in person. It doesn't do any good to point out to him that his success is due partly to luck, partly to the current economic trends. You'd have to be an idiot not to have made money in his business during the 1 W 17 VV I I GCNUtNI VW 1 1 I M M UJATfB mfiSKB 4m.a'j Lot gear SeKae: TOILET TANK BALL Noisy running toilers colt waste ovor 1000 ssallans of wotec a dor.

When I came into the business, I discovered my father's business practices were not only olf-fash-ioned and inefficient, but often unethical and sometimes border ing on illegal. I am not trying to show off my superior knowl edge when I say these things. It just happens to be obvious to me that certain things can get him into a lot of trouble and destroy his reputation. I certain ly don't want any part of these dealings. The only trouble I've gotten into has come as a result of my father's crossing up some of the things I've done by way of im provements. I'd be glad to leave him if I didn't worry about the mess he s making. e The Council: Despite their harsh attacks on one another, this father and son must have a strong bond of affection. It is shown in their desire to stand by one -another, even though their differences are so strong. Pat and his father must re member this bond of affection when their differences and their strong sense of rivalry come to the fore. Mr. B. M.- is domineer ing and seems to want to belit tle his son. Pat is in a hurry to seize power and wants to be little his father and his accom plishments. Each wants to assert his ego at the expense of the other. Simple courtesy and mutual respect is called for on both ' sides. Mr. B. M should recognize i that "theories" are not always i wrong. Practices based on I knowledge can add. not detract, j from his business. Experience is i important, but it is not every-1 thing.- . Pat, on the other hand, should recognize that "luck" comes to those with the vision to see it. ! Many businessmen failed during j the past 15 years despite the i economic trends. His belittling I of his father to business associ ates is every bit as damaging to the man's reputation at the "trouble" he fears. Pat and his father need to learn to listen to one another and practice objectivity for the sake of the business and their relationship.
