FOURTEEN MEDFOHD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday, January 14, 1958 Oregon Democrats See Holmes In Trouble as Election Nears B X. ROBERT SMITH I Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington If Gov. Rob ert D. Holmes noticed a burn ing sensation around the ears ITEiSJI the other day, Mfi t was prob- W'l his top Demo- ' f-'f cratir cohorts 'j&J wen saying - iabout nim C here in Wash- V r.T'l ington. iBnbi snutd nrst Dreatciasi powwow this past week, the five Democratic members of the Oregon congressional dele gation took a political assess ment which had one soft spot for the party as it heads into this election year. While the Democrats think th party is generally in good shape, they fear Holmes is in trouble, both in and out of the party. In their travels round the state they ran into criticism of the way he is run ning things, much of it from disgruntled Democratic party workers. There is grousing that he has made some poor appoint ments even that he is too chummy with Republicans. There was no direct men tion, however, of the differ ence's between Sens. Wayne Morse and Richard L. Neu berger which erupted openly last summer. Neuberger made what could be regarded as a philosophical reference to it and all other intraparty feuds when he told his colleagues that he had run across an apt phrase in a book called "The White Rabbit" by Bruce Mar shall. It read: "Experience has shown that the competitive spirit, if car ried only slightly too far, can make Argyll and Sutherland Highlander hate a Cameronian in the same brigade much more thoroughly than the Ger man whose misdeeds he reads about only in the news papers." Neuberger explained that h Is convinced this sums up what leads to tiffs within the ranks of Democrats and Re publicans, when ideally each side should save its ammuni tion for the other. Maybe it was just a coin cidence, but Rep. Walter Nor blad found his ulcer kicking up a fuss last week just after reports were published that Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton was thinking about challenging him for his 1st district congressional seat. Norblad has had stomach trouble in the past, but noth ing that couldn't be taken care at satisfactorily at Bethesda Naval hospital. The congress man went on a poached egg and milk diet this week and had to watch President Eisen hower deliver his state-of-the- Records Stressed For Tax Deduction By Accountants Portland Expense ac oount employees in this area In common with those all over the nation are con fronted with "operation itemi zation" this year, the tax in formation committee of the Oregon Association of Public Accountants said Monday. Those who haven't started systematic records of their reimbursed expenses should do so immediately going back to Jan. 1 with complete documentation the ac countants advised. Itemiza tion will be required in pre paring the 1958 federal in come tax returns a year hence. The government has tem porarily dropped the require ment for listing expense ac count data, although the query remains on the tax forms on line 6-A, the com mittee said. After the forms had already been printed the internal revenue commission threw in the sponge as far as itemiza tion is concerned. Commis sioner Russel C. Harrington admitted it "would place to great a burden on many tax payers" because it was an nounced so late in the year. Harrington has issued re peated warnings to taxpayers to keep accurate records on expense accounts starting the first of the year. The public accountants' committee, which includes members from this area, also stressed taxpayers will be re quired to follow the-customary practice of attaching to their returns a separate list ing of deductible expenses for which they received no reim bursement in 1957. union message from his home TV. Rumors are going the rounds that Dorothy McCul lough Lee may take on Con gresswoman Edith Green for her 3d district seat. Mrs. Lee, ex-mayor of Port land, is now holding the high est office of any lady in the Eisenhower administration chairman of the Subversive Activities Control Board. Some folks think if the White House suggested she ought to make the race, she would do it, because her ultimate hope is to be appointed a federal judge, they claim. Others are wondering what the Neubergers would do in that case, for their fondness for Mrs. Lee has been fre quently expressed and a strained relationship between the Neubergers and Mrs. Green is no secret. Rep. Al Ullman is telling colleague to come to Oregon for their hunting trips, be cause he shot a big elk last fall. Then he froze it solid and pulled it in a rented trailer all the way to Washington so he and his family could have Oregon elk steaks all winter. Quotes From the News By UNITED PRESS Phoenix, Ariz.

Commission Sets Two Highway Jobs Salem Oregon motorists will soon be able to drive two new concrete highways as a result of a recent deci sion by the Oregon btate Highway Commission. Concrete has been selected for the surfacing of a lOVi mile section of U. S. 99 from North Jefferson junction to a point just south of Albany. Paving is expected to get underway next spring. This will mark the first major use or concrete tor surfacing in Oregon in more than a decade. The second major highway picked for concrete is the ex tension of the Baldoek Free way, six miles of six-lane highway, which will by-pass Barbur Boulevard into down town Portland. In stepping up use of con crete for major highway con struction, Oregon follows a national trend. The Cement Industry of Oregon reports that 73 per cent of the na tion's high-speed expressways are concrete, as are 91 per cent of the 25 most heavily traveled rural highway sec tions of the nation's inter state system and 65 per cent of the nation's toll roads. Ike Will Resume News Conferences Washington (W Presi dent Eisenhower will resume holding news conferences this week, at' 7:30 a.m. (PST) Wednesday. It will be the President's first question and answer session with reporters since last Oct. 30. There are several reasons for the absence of a news con ference during the past two months his mild stroke, absences from town, and a pe riod of intensive preparation for the new session of Con gress that opened last Tuesday. Ullman Plans To Request Help lor Small Colleges Washington Rep. Al Ull man (D-Ore.) plans to intro duce legislation to offer fed eral aid to struggling com munity colleges, such as Bend Junior college. His proposal would call for a program of state and feder al financial assistance to com munities wishing to establish public colleges. "Colleges and universities today are getting too big," Ullman contended. The eastern Oregon law maker said he thinks a solu tion lies in fostering the es tablishment of more commun ity colleges, which would be smaller than the larger state universities and closer to home for many students. In Dire Straits "Bend Junior college is In dire straits," observed Ull man. He said if it had some federal aid to accompany the state funds it has received, the Bend institution would be strengthened. Ullman said he thinks such colleges should offer a gener al education as well as two years of technical training, such as students receive at Oregon Technical Institute at Klamath Falls. "I think they are doing a terrific job," Ullman said of OTI, noting that it trains students for specific jobs and skills. He said he could foresee many communities, such as Pendleton and Baker, quali fying under his plan. Ad for Sukiyaki Chef Brings Flood Of Response, Including Doc Quigg By DOC QUIGG United Press Correspondent New York (IP) Down in Florida, come next month, there'll be at least one man happy in his work. He may not be the highest paid chef in the world, but joy will flood his chore. The ad in the New York papers ran this way: "Urgently need expert suki yaki chef to spend 10 weeks in Miami Beach, beginning Jan. 30th. Have booked im ported 'geisha girl revue' 16 geisha girls 16 for period; contract stipulates we supply Japanese food. Not too much money, but excellent oppor tunity. Chef must be capable man and have even tempura." Anxious to learn the possi bilities of latching onto such a job, we called the number given and asked for the suki yaki chef hirer. A male voice came on the wire. Voice Yeah? Reporter You still want a sukiyaki cook? Voice You don't sound like one. What kind do you make? Makes Southern Sukiyak Reporter Ah'm from the South. Ah make Southern fried sukiyaki. Voice Well, that's a switch, anyway. But we already found a chef, out in Cleveland or one of them Western states, I forgot which. Reporter You mean you had response from all over on this thing? Voice It was amazing. We were flooded. . Reporter I don't get it. American sukiyaki experts? Voice A lot of them sound ed like ex-GIs who'd done 1 it the big response, I me. occupation duty in Japan and fallen in love with the art. Reporter What art? Voice Both arts. Reporter What's that? Voice Sukiyaki cooking and geisha girling. Reporter I don't see how the two go together. Voice Lemme start from the start. We booked a show from Japan. Kabuki and gei sha dancing and all-that stuff. Part of the deal was that we hadda give 'em Japanese food. You know, legit. So we said to ourselves, why don't we get us a sukiyaki chef? Reporter I still don't get Boy Digs Deep To Help March of Dimes Wayne Howard believes in doing his share to help the March of Dimes, even if it does dig deep into his savings. The 11-year-old boy, who lives at 245S Stewart ave., and attends Oak Grove school, mailed S1.60 to Glen Rader, county MOD treasurer, with this note: "I hope polio is wiped out. This is to help. This is five weeks' allowance." Support Sought For Right To Work Law Washington (IP) Sen. Barry M. Goldwater (R-Ariz.) has disclosed that he had written all senators to ask their support for his bill call ing for a national right to work law prohibiting union shop contracts. Voice It's the nature of the job. Chef Not in Kitchen Reporter Whatcha mean? The chef is in the kitchen, and the girls are in the . . . Voice Oh, no, no, no. The chef gits right down on the floor among the girls, who also sit on the floor. Suki yaki is made, and cooked, in a burner sort of thing that sits right beside the eater, who converses with the chef while he is cheffing. , Reporter Oh. Voice Yeah. , Reporter What's this "even tempura" in your ad? Voice That's just a gag. Tempura is a kind of Japa nese food, and chefs are sup posed to have high tempers and . . . Reporter I get it, I get it. So you got a big response? Voice Some guys said never mind the money, they'd work just for the valuable experience. Daily's U-Drive J Medford Airport Hartford, Conn.
