, To Labors Self-Interest
As far as this department is concerned we don't
need any more evidence or senate investigations
to convince us as to what Organized Labor should do
with Messers Dave Beck and his "alter ego" James
R. Hoffa.
They are both tough and smart operators.
They have, no'doubt, increased the power and wealth
of organized labor, and even more conspiciously the
wealth and power of themselves.
DUT enough is known and been admitted to
demonstrate that Messers Beck and Hoffa repre
sent a type of mercenary callousness, ruthless exploi
tation, and greed, which American labor can't afford
to excuse or sanction. It is also our belief, that when
the moral issues involved come to a show down, the
Beck-Hoffa type of leadership will be emphatically
repudiated by organized labor as a whole.
e e
VlE very much hope so.
" For, as we see it, it is not only in the interest
of the national welfare, but decidedly the SELF in
terest of organized labor, that a house-cleaning be
conducted, which will place the methods employed
by the Beck-Hoffa school of thought, at the bottom
of the ash-can, where they belong. R.W.R.
Nixon Jumps the Gun
If Vice President Nixon doesn't get the G.O.P.
presidential nomination in 1960, it won't be because
of any lack of effort.
We can't recall in either party, a drive for the
head of the ticket, which started so early and gathered
so much momentum, so long before the date of the
convention.
Perhaps the announced retirement of Nixon's Re
publican colleague,' Senator Knowland, and the an
nouncement of Governor Knight that he will be a can
didate for reelection has had something to do with
this "jumping the gun."
For it is generally agreed, among politicians in
the know, that the next Governor of California will
have a great deal of influence as to that state's vote
in 1960, and there is little doubt the gubernatorial con
test "will be between California's present Governor
Knight and the retiring senior senator of that politic
ally powerful state.
fF course, ex-Senator Nixon is not announcing his
candidacy as President Eisenhower's "favorite
son"-; nothing as crude as that nor is he openly
campaigning for "3 years hence" that would be
plain dumb and whatever may be said against
Nixon, he is NOT that!
But as most newspapermen will agree, the marked
articles, and laudatory press clippings that are com
ing to editorial rooms over the country today build
ing up the "New Nixon" can hardly be "purely coin
cidental." It is all, we believe, a clever game very clever
and, to this column at least often amusing. We were
particularly amused by the "Madison Avenue" type
of offering that the "New Nixon" demonstrated his
courage, high integrity, and indifference to political
consequences when he toured the "Deep South" in
favor of negro rights and had his picture taken with
one of the outstanding negro leaders, the right Rev
erend Martin Luther. He also, it seems, invited selected
colored gentry to one of Mrs. Nixon's selective cock
tail parties.
"INDIFFERENCE to political consequences?" That
1 would make even "Ferdinand the bull" emit a
horse-laugh.
A smarter bid for the negro, vote in the north,
which a Republican presidential candidate must have
to be elected, could hardly be imagined.
However, judging by present indications, that
sort of "unadulterated-whang -Doodle" is on the
Nixon assembly line, and promises to continue
off and on, for the next two or three years, at
least. R.W.R.
Nice While it Lasted
The celebration of the "Hate-Morse brigade" was
painfully brief.
Only a few days were they able to exult in the
fact that Oregon's two senators had come to the
parting-of-the-ways, and that while the senior senator
wished to smoke "the pipe of peace," Senator Neu
berger would have none of it.
This was clearly shown, it was claimed, by Sen
ator Morse's conciliatory statement, and the stern
refusal- of his junior colleague to make one. This, it
was added, showed great dignity and smart political
acumen. It was also alleged, it put Wayne Morse in
a hot-spot behind the 8-ball, where it was unanimous
ly agreed he belonged.
VES, some of the Morse phobiacs had quite a war-
dance but, as stated, it did not last long. '
For, as Robert Smith, our Washington correspond
ent, who originated the "end of the honeymoon" story,
wired this paper Senator Neuberger did issue a public
statement which Smith did not send entire, but enough
to show that there is no more ill-will, or likelihood of
a political feud, between . Oregon's two Democratic
senators now than there was before the "hassle" was
first reported.
A S our junior Senator points out, he and his team
mate did not see eye-to-eye, on President Eisen
hower and Dave Beck civil rights and some features
of the administration's foreign policy. However, they
never pretended to be "carbon-copies of each other,"
but when the welfare of Oregon is at stake, the record
speaks for itself, as to their "teamwork and mutual

Matter of Fact
WHAT DOES HARLEM
THINK?
New York This enormous
Negro city-within-a-city nis now
in the process of making up
it collective mind on the follow
ing question: Which party, Re
publican o r
D e m ocratic,
deserves most
credit or
blame for its
role in the
civil rights
fight?
This report
er, accompan
ied by the ex
perienced po
Stewaif Alsop
litical analyst Louis Harris, has
spent many footsore hours ring
ing doorbells here, trying to
find out what Harlem thinks. It
has been a fascinating experi
ence the more so because the
way Harlem, and the many
smaller Harlems in the key
Northern states, make up their
minds, may determine the po
litical balance of power for
years to come.
All Harlem, like all Gaul, is
divided into three parts. At
the top, there is the small aristo
cracy of the prosperous and
well-educated, who live in
places like the comforable, pri
vate Tiverton apartments. These
people constitute an impressive
ly articulate and knowledge
able community. At the bottom
are the dwellers in Harlem's
rat-infested, festering slum tene
ments. And in the middle are
the occupants of ' the government-subsidized
housing proj
ects, like the modest but decent
Lincoln apartments.
e e
Harlem's way of making up
its mind works on the Tink-er-t
o-E-v e r s-to-Chance double
play principle-Tiverton-to-Lin-coln
-to-tenements. People like
the occupants of the Tiverton
are, by and large, the opinion
formers, and their policial views
seep lown through the Harlem
hierarchy. Harris arid this re
porter sampled opinions in all
three groups, but the Tiverton
group provided the most inter
esting. The people in the Tiver
ton are having a difficult time
making up their minds. .
When we asked them the
question cited in the first para
graph, they would pause
thoughtfully, and say "That's
a very hard question to
answer." The reason it is a hard
question to answer was sug
gested by their answer to an
other question in the last 50
years, who had done most for
the Negro people? Almost with
out exception, the answer was
"Franklin D. Roosevelt," and
when they pronounced the be
loved name, their faces lit up.
ewe
The people in the Tiverton, in
short, are New Deal Demo
crats, and by a margin of at
least four or five to one. It is
thus very hard indeed for them
io give credit to the Repub
licans, on the civil rights issue.
Yet an increasing number of
them are doing so.
An increasing number, more
over, are giving credit specifi
cally to Vice President Richard
M. Nixon. The new popularity
of Nixon among the Harlemites
was, indeed, the phenomenon
which most impressed both Har
ris and this reporter. And this
is related to another phenom
enon Of all the peiple we talked to,
in all our weary hours of door
bell pushing.. there was exactly
one who had the slightest inter
est in, or understanding of, the
disputed jury trial amendment,
about which so many millions
of words have been written.
This ignorance of the legislative
details of the civil rights battle
effectiveness," under the "outstanding and able lead
ership of Wayne Morse," etc., etc. .
m e
SO that should settle the matter, as far as a continu
ing feud between the members of the Oregon dele
gation in the upper House is concerned.
It won't stop the efforts of the "Hate Morsers"
to get their man. But it may be some time before they
have another opportunity, which appeared so enticing,
but lasted so short a time. R.W.R.
By Stewart Alsop
was as true in the Tiverton as
in the tenements.
Thus Minority Leader Wil
liam Knowland got virtually
no credit at all for his stubborn
fight for a strong civil rights
bill. By the same token. Sen.
Jack Kennedy got no blame for
his vote for the jury trial
amendment no one was
aware of it. And yet, somehow,
the image of Nixon as a staunch
fighter for civil rights has
emerged very clearly.
e e
There is not much mystery
about that "somehow," either.
People remembered the pictures
of Nixon with the Reverend Mar
tin Luther King, leader of the
with Kwame Nkrumah, Prime
Minister of the newly independ
ent state of Ghana. In terms
of political salesmanship, those
pictures were worth more to
Nixon than reams of close-typed
pages of brilliant and impas
sioned oratory in the Congres
sional Record.
Civil rights is not the only
issue which will determine how
Harlem makes up its -mind. Es
pecially in the tenements, there
are many people who hardly
bother their heads about civil
rights, and who wax passionate
instead about such matters as
housing, rents, and above all,
rising prices. If there is much
more inflation, or even a mild
depression, the gains the Repub
licans have made among North
ern Negro voters could vanish
like the mist at sunrise.
Yet those gains are unques
tionably real today. Harlem,
which has voted overwhelming
ly Democratic for a quarter of
a century, willnot vote over
whelmingly Republican tomor
row. But the Republicans have
for the first time a real chance
to reduce the Democratic ma
jority among Northern Negro
voters close to the 50-50 mark.
If they do, it will mean a major
shift in the whole national poli
tical balance of power. And as
of today, the major beneficiary
of such a shift will unquestion
ably be Richard M. Nixon,

Neuberger's Pro-Ike
Votes Seen Basis of
Attack by
By SEN
RICHARD NEUBERGER
Washington, D. C. (Special)
On August 9 the Oregon State
Republican Party chairman,
James Short, attacked as "ap
palling" my voting record in the
United States Senate. Mr. Short
based this attack upon a "Con
gressional Quarterly" survey
which allegedly showed me as
voting for economy in govern
ment only 4 per cent of the time.
This assault upon my record
is merely one further demonstra
tion that the top leadership of
the Republican Party in our
state is still basically anti-Eisenhower,
so far as policy and pro
gram are concerned.
If Mr. Short were at all wor
ried about the substantive na
ture of government, he would
realize that my rating in the
"Congressional Quarterly" is due
almost entirely to the fact that
I have tried to rise above narrow
partisanship in order to support
President Eisenhower on basic
issues of foreign policy like mu
tual security, U. S. Information
Agency and national defense.

Following the attack upon me
by Mr. Short, I consulted the
In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Money talk:
Continued heavy investment
in Canadian securities has sent
Canada's dollar soaring to a new
record high.
It now takes $1.06 in U.S.
money to buy a Canadian dollar.
H
OW come?
It's all quite simple.
CANADA is new and raw and
rich in natural resources
including oil and gold and nickel
and uranium. The population of
the United States, which is lo
cated just across a more or less
Imaginary line from Canada,
is growing swiftly. There will
be 200 million people in the
U.S. almost before we can turn
around. By 1975, our popula
tion is expected to reach 227
millions.
This vast population is ex
pected to create huge new mar
kets for Canada's products. So
Americans (hoping to make a
quick buck) are rushing in to
buy stock in Canadian enter
prises. American investment money
is pouring into Canada in a
steadily swelling stream.
WHY does that make a Cana
dian dollar worth more than
an American dollar?
- It works like this:
When you buy something in
Canada, you must first buy
Canadian money to pay for it
with. Americans are BUYING
HEAVILY in Canada oil
wells, uranium mines, stock in
Canadian corporations. And so
on.
This strong demand for Ca
nadian money makes- the Ca
nadian I illar worth more.
THAT is to say:
Money is a commodity
just like hay, grain and pota
toes. Its price is governed by the
law of supply and demand.
THAT prompts another ques
tion: Is this situation good
for Canada?
Oddly enough, the answer is
NO.
THIS is how it works out:
You take a trip to Van
couver, B. C. You buy a Hud
son Bay blanket in a Vancouv
er store or whatever other
merchandise you happen to
fancy. In order to pay for it
you buy Canadian money and
the premium commanded by
the Canadian dollar makes the
Canadian merchandise cost
more. So you are inclined to
buy less of it.
When Canadians come down
to SeatUe or Portland and make
purchases they GET MORE
AMERICAN DOLLARS for
their Canadian dollars, and that
makes the merchandise they
buy in the United States, COST
LESS. So they are inclined to
buy more American merchan
dise. Communications

editors of "Congressional Quar
terly." They have told me that
their so-called "economy" sur
vey is based on 23 Senate roll
calls between Jan. 3 and July 28.
On these 23 rollcals, the recom
mendations of President Eisen
hower were made clear 17 times.
Out of those 17 roll-calls, I voted
with Mr. Eisenhower 13 times
and against him only four times.
Few Senators in - either party
sided with the President on so
many occasions.
The only possible conclusion
to be drawn from Mr. Short's
description of my Senate voting
record as "appalling" is that he
likewise regards as 'appalling"
the position of Dwight Eisen
hower on those same issues! This
is a curious posture, indeed, for
the chairman of the Oregon State
Republican Party.

On those few occasions when
I did not vote with the Presi

roll-calls, I am informed by the
"Congressional Quarterly" that
it was because I voted to expand

to enlarge appropriations avail

mortgages. With Oregon's cru
cial lumber industry in the dol
drums because of a sagging mar
ket foi- housing, I wonder if the
State Republican Party would
have been happier if I had tried
to diminish new housing starts
stUl further?

and inaccuracy of Mr Short's
attack was his ridicule of me

THE COUP IN SYRIA
Washington has been reacting
calmly to the events in Syria,
almost certainly because they
have long
been foresee
able, and are
not a surprise.
The events
stem from the
basic situation
among '.. the
Arab nations
in the Middle
East: first,
Walter Uppmus l e H"
powers are rivals competing for
their favor; and second, that
there is rivalry among the Arab
ruling classes, who are compet
ing for the support of the great
. i , J, . i
powers. 1
For these reasons, there has
never been any chance that all
the Arab countries would line
up with us under some sort of
pan-Arab Eisenhower Doctrine.
As we .have been making our
deals with one group of Arab
countries, another group as it
happens Syria, Egypt, Yemen
have been making tentative
deals with the Soviet Union.
We are involved in a compli
cated and tricky game of power
politics, and we must expect to
have losses as well as gams, we
have had gains in Saudi-Arabia,
Jordan, and Lebanon. Now we
have had a loss in Syria. The
one thing that we can be fairly
sure of is that the whole region
is in flux, and that neither the
gains, as in Jordan, ' nor the
losses, as in Syria, can be
counted on as permanent.
For while it may turn out to
be the fact that the new mili
tary dictatorship in Syria is
firmly under Soviet control,
there is, I venture to think,
bound to be a radical difference
between a continguous and a
n o n-contiguous satellite be
tween one that can be reached
over land by the Red Army and
one that can be reached only by
sea and air. It was possible for
the Red Army to march into
Hungary, to occupy it and to
crush the rebellion. That would
not be nearly so easy to do
what with the Baghdad allies
being interposed if there were
a rebellion in Syria. For the So
viet Union it can be said that
Egypt as well as Syria are
rather in the nature of outposts
than true satellites.
IT IS generally agreed, as the
President said at his press
conference, that the coup in
Syria does not call for any re
action under the Eisenhower
Doctrine. The Syrian coup is a
successful intrigue in which the
legal government of Syria has

reer, I was attacked by Oregon
Republicans because they claim

that such irresponsibility grips
a major political party in our
state!
Startled, he appealed to one of
the train's officials, explaining
vehemently that he wasn't a
passenger and wanted off. The
trainman pulled the emergency
cord. ,
Still the train kept moving,
slowly, but surely, along the
tracks. The cord was pulled
again. Finally, the train pulled
to a stop, the door was opened,
and, bidding his wife farewell,

two full miles back to the sta

Each, probably, was wonder
ing, which, if any, of the pic-

they would be depicted in any

Their wondering was answered
Thursday, when the current is

acquiesced, at which it has prob
ably connived. The basic prin
ciple of the Eisenhower Doc
trine is that we wiU Intervene
only at the request of a legiti
mate government, and in the
case of Syria the legitimate gov
ernment is stridenly hostile to
the Eisenhower Doctrine and to
the United States..
The right course is the one
that the administration appears
to be taking to leave the Ini
tiative to Syria's neighbors, al
lowing them to decide on the
only action which is possible
whether the new Soviet govern
ment should be put In quaran
tine. That is the limit of the ac
tion. There can be no intrigue
under the Eisenhower Doctrine
unless Syria first openly makes
war on one or more of her
neighbors, on Iraq, Jordan, Leb
anon, or Israel. Insofar as Syria
is under Soviet influence, it will
probably not be encouraged, in
fact it will probably not be per
mitted, to 'do anything which
could precipitate in general war.
e e
IN retrospect, it looks more
and more as if Sen. Fulbright
is right, and that our crucial
mistake in the Middle East has
been the abrupt rejection of the
Aswan Dam. Not only did this
touch off the calamitous series
of events which began with Nas
ser's seizure of the Suez Canal
Co., but it also deprived the
Western world of the chance to
cooperate with Egypt in a great
project which is of vital inter
est to the Egyptian people. The
fact of our ; withdrawal, com
bined with the rude manner in
which we . withdrew, has ex
cluded us from the chance to
exercire a friendly influence. It
has left the field open to the
Soviet Union, and made it cer
tain that Nasser's demagogy
would be turned against us a LI
over the Arab world.
Yet it is probably true that
Nasser does not want, and will
try his best to avoid, a complete
entanglement with the Soviet
orbit. The central idea of his
foreign policy seems to be that
he can profit most by keeping
the Soviet Union and the West
bidding against each other. To
do that he must be independent
enough to keep both 'sides
guessing, which, we may sup
pose, is what he means when he
talks about a positive neutrality.
