What Price Hatfield?
Here is some more news.
A Republican friend of ours we still have
a few asked us the other day to explain the en
trance of Secretary of State Hatfield into the
G. 0. P. Primary, opposing state treasurer Sig
Unander, for the gubernatorial nomination.
That a member in high standing in the Re
publican party should ask the editor of this paper
to give the "low down" on what is, and has been
going on, within the inner circles of the Portland
Arlington club the past few weeks, is NEWS.
If the Upper Bracket Republicans don't know
the answer, this department certainly doesn't.
From the first announcement by Secretary
Hatfield, that he would oppose his good friend
for the G.O.P. nomination after solemnly and
emphatically declaring he would not this sud
den "flip flop" has been a complete mystery to
this department.
ONLY know something very unexpected
and extraordinary must have happened with
in the upper echelons of the state G.O.P. between
the time Mr. Hatfield said he "could conceive of
no circumstances that would induce him" to run
against his close associate and the time he reared
up on his hind legs and heaved his hat into the
ring- v
What WAS it?
We don't know and as far as wTe have observed
no other paper in the state, regardless of party,
does know. At least if any of them do, they have
not to date publicly announced it.
IKE the late Will Rogers, all we know is what
we read in the papers.
There was Secretary Hatfield's official an
nouncement, for example. Here are some salient
portions of it, quote:
"In recent weeks, I have been beseiged by sincere
people who believe that it is my duty to give the Republi
cans of Oregon a free choice in an open primary.
"Their interest is in a candidate who can unify and
energize the Republicans of the state; who cannot be
charged with alliance to any special group or interest;
who would wage a hard, fighting campaign; and who
would bring to the Governorship positive leadership with
legislative experience comparable to my six years in the
House and in the state Senate. i
"It is time for leadership that has financial responsi
bility and integrity; that will reversfe the policy of build
. ing and protecting unneeded surpluses of tax money that
are an open invitation to reckless spending.
"It is time for leadership that will renew the confi
dence of business in state government and in Oregon's
future so that expanding present industries will spread
the tax load while they create new jobs and better jobs
to make individual tax. bills easier to pay.
"It is time for leadership that offers the working peo
ple and the young people of Oregon understanding and
action instead of political bait and a sagging economy."
That statement is ok, for the final campaign
which Mr. Hatfield, a keen political observer
obviously assumes will be
our present Governor.
But it is hardly necessary to add that this
isn't the final campaign. It isn't a contest between
Governor Holmes and whoever wins the G.O.P.
nomination. It is a contest between two highly
regarded and respected members of the Repub
lican party.
In other words, are the voters to assume Sig
Unander couldn't do the job as well as Secretary
Hatfield? Does Hatfield mean to say his oppo
nent CAN be charged with alliance with some
special group and interest?
These seem strange charges for an old friend
and associate to make against another Repub
lican. Also wouldn't it be fair to assume that Mr.
Unander would wage as hard a campaign that
would offer "as much for the working people and
the younger people of the state understanding and
action instead of political bait and a sagging
economy" as would Secretary Hatfield?
IN OTHER words what IS wrong with State
1 Treasurer Sig Unander anyway?
He is well and favorably known to the people
of the state, he has an excellent record for effi
ciency and integrity. More important he was first
to enter the race. And when he did (as remarked
above) he was not only endorsed by Mr. Hat
field, but at that time the Secretary of State could
CONCEIVE of no circumstances that would in
duce him to run against his highly regarded con
temporary on the State Board of Control.
Then WHY didn't Hatfield pass up the pri
mary? Mr. Hatfield is young, has an important
state job now, which he can hold with many years
of opportunity before him. What we wonder were
the points made by those "hordes of sincere peo
ple" who beseiged Mr. Hatfield so urgently to
repudiate his public pledge, that he proceeded in
a surprisingly short time to do it?
A YE, there is the $64,000 question!
We wish we could accommodate our Re
publican subscriber and answer it, but we just
don't know. Our only guess is somewhat as
follows :
For some reason or reasons not made public,
the Republican party in this state, or at least
those "Upper Bracket" gentlemen who really
control the party, decided that Mr. Sig Unander
probably couldn't beat Governor Holmes, and
Secretary Hatfield could or at least had the
better chance.
And so the fateful decision was made.
For that is what the HigherUps are really
interested in. They don't care about WHO the suc
cessful candidate is, all they care about is that
he is a Republican and ISN'T a Democrat!

'At. MnWELL.'rtXR MFg AND YOUR LITTLE VEU,
ANYWAY, XJUff Wlf IS OUT HgRE J
Matter of Fact By Joseph Alsop
NEGOTIATING WITH
THE KREMLIN
At first hearing, the cur
rent debate about negotiating
with the Kremlin seems to
ITTHi verse on sheer
lunacy.
Not o n e of
the Western
leaders means
one word of
all the in
n u m e rable
words they
have spouted
on the sub-
Joseph Alsop jecx of & a s x-
West talks. As for those who
sincerely advocate n e g o tia-
tions, most of them are wish-
thinkers of the Left whom
you can hardly tell apart
from the wishthinkers of the
Right who used to plead for
"doing business with Hitler."
Tehse are the reasons why
the State Department spokes
men keeps squawking "just
propaganda," like a repeti
tious, self-righteous parrot,
between representatives of
the two world blocs. But in
fact this Kremlin campaign
for East-West talks is a very
serious business. It needs to
be analyzed carefully, not just
squawked about.
As is the Kremlin custom,
the Soviet leaders are plain
ly pursuing two different ani
mals at the same time. If they
do not catch one, they hope to
get the other. What the Krem
lin is after is analyzed as
follows by the leading West
ern experts on Soviet be
havior. THE minimum .objective,
first of all is to exploit the
fears inspired by recent Sov
iet successes in weapons dev
elopment. Everyone in Britian
and Western Europe now has
a vivid sense of being under
the gun ( or rather under the
missile with hydrogen war
head). The result is a blind
impulse to negotiate just for
the sake of negotiating. No
one is strong enough to com
bat this unreasoning impulse
because of the present bank
ruptcy of Western leadership.
Thus the Soviet leaders can
toss off intellectual abortions
like Polish Foreign Secretary
Rapacki's scheme for un
policed, un-policeable "denu
clearization" of Central Eur
ope. No Western leader makes
the effort to point out that
theHapacki scheme will mere
ly deprive the Western arm
ies of nuclear weapons, while
the Soviet and satellite forces
will of course be secretly
supplied with nuclear wea
pons more powerful than
ever. - '
Instead, the abortion is
taken quite seriously, even in
Prime Minister Macniillian's
recent formal reply to Pre
mier Bulganin. The Mac
millan government, one must
add, is in especially hot water
with its public opinion.
WITH the West in this flabby
and maudlin condition.
one can imagine the character
of a big East-West meeting
with every Western represen
tative looking over his should-
. 1 11 V . 1
er ax tne ioiks uacK nome.
Such a meeting would have
a fair chance of splitting the
West for good. And the hope
of splitting the West is the
sole motive for the Soviet de
mands for such a meeting.
The Soviets have always
used large international con
ferences to make political
trouble. Otherwise, they have
always regarded such confer
ences as totally useless. But
within the drive for a big
East-West meeting, there is
another, far more interesting
drive for a quiet Soviet
American dialogue. This kind
of talk in a corner is what
the 'Soviets always seek, if
they mean to negotiate in ear
nest. The drive for a big meet
ing is in some sense acxing as
a lever to force a dialogue.
Secretary of State John Fost
er Dulles is perfectly aware
what troubles a big East-West
meeting would probably
bring. Hence he must natural
ly be tempted to accept a dia
logue as an alternative.
A major question remains
about the motive of the Sov
iet drive for a dialogue. The
Allied distrust of Secretary
Dulles is both deep and bit
ter. If Dulles ever begins
private talks with the Sov
iets, every other Western for
eign minister . will take the
next plane to Moscow, to start
private talks of his own. If
this happens, Western unity
will end by looking like a
rotten melon dropped from
a fifty-story window.
A SOVIET - American dia
logue will thus be des
perately risky while John
Foster Dulles is still at the
State Department. Yet the
leading Western experts do
not believe that the drive for
a Soviet-American dialogue is
just another splitting opera
tion. They think the Kremlin
genuinely desires to get down
to business on certain very
important points, such as the
horrible problem created for
the U.S.S.R. as well as the
U.S. by the continuous devel
opment of continuously more
horrible armaments.
In these circumstances, it
seems too bad that the United
States should be virtually de
barred from testing this sup
posed Kremlin desire to get
down to serious business. And
the regrets will be all the
deeper if and when the pre
sent period of negotiating
about negotiation merges in
to a new period of acute dang
er arising from new Soviet
forward moves in the Middle
East, Soviet pressure on Ber
lin, and so on and on.

Only Money Matter,
Space Expert Says
By B. J. McFARLAND
United Press Correspondent
Phoenix, Ariz. (IP) Cir
cling the globe in space with
in the next five years is
simply a matter of money, in
the opinion of a noted outer
space scientist and former
German general.
Dr. Walter R. Dornberger,
technical advisor to the presi
dent of Bell Aircraft Co., told
the United Press Wednesday
night this country is consid
erably behind the Russians"
in outer space travel.
"Man can be flying around
the globe at an altitude of
200,000 feet in a roomy rock
et the size of conventional air
planes now flying all over the
world," the scientist said. "I
call this type of vehicle a
satelloid.
"But the government must
get going in financing such a
project."
Dornberger, here to attend
a classified meeting of private
industry outer space scientists
and electronic engineers, said
the only problem now con
fronting the United States re
garding man's trip to outer
space is how to get him back.
"It is my belief we can get
him back in a rocket ship
that has capacity to glide," he
said. "The gliding effect is ne
cessary to slow him down on
the return journey, allowing
him to maintain control of the
ship and land it on an airstrip
in a conventional manner.
Dornberger said the United
States can learn just so much
from ground experiments and
tests with dogs in world-circling
artificial moons.
"Man is the necessary fac
tor for outer space travel . . .
a dog can't do much except
provide some scientific data
of what effect atmospheric
conditions would have on a
living being," he said.
"We can simulate many of
outer space conditions on
earth to provide us with the
answers the Russians sought
Adenauer
Towards Russian Negotiations
By CHARLES M. MeCANN
United Press Correspondent
Chancellor Konrad Aden
auer has made the first defin-
ite Allied move toward open-
ing secret
talks with So
viet Russia on
easing world
tension.
In a letter
to Soviet Pre
mier Nikolai
A. Bulganin,
the 82-year-old
West Ger-
cnaries ax. inj
Mccann man leader
offered to turn the current
Russian-German trade nego
tiations in Moscow into talks
on East-West issues.
Alternatively, A d e n a uer
said he was prepared to agree
to "any other promising point
of departure" to try to elim
inate Russian-German ten
sions. But he added that he
was ready to take up the
whole range of disarmament
and security issues, with
which all Allied governments
are concerned.
Strategy Seemingly Changed
A few days ago, it looked
as if the United States might
make the move through Llew
ellyn E. Thompson Jr., its am
bassador in Moscow, who has
been ordered to Washington
to confer with President Ei
senhower and Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles.
It seems certain, however,
that Adenauer made his offer
in agreement with the United
States and other members of
the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization,
President Eisenhower, in
his letter of Jan. 12 to Bul
ganin, said that secret diplo
matic negotiations should pre
cede any formal East-West
talks by foreign ministers or
heads of government,
However, the President's
comment was made in gen
eral terms. Adenauer's pro
posal was specific. He asked
Bulganin directly to agree to
start the talks going.
Wants Summit Meeting
London dispatches quote
Communist diplomats as say
ing that the Soviet govern
ment still msists on a " sum
mit" meeting. Not only that,
but the Kremlin is represent
ed as wanting to hold a jum
bo conference which w.ould
include Allied, Communist
and neutral leaders.
'It is obvious that the Rus
sians hope that by insistent
propaganda, they can bring
sufficient pressure on the
United States, Great Britain,
France and West Germany to
agree to such a conference
But if there are two men
in the whole diplomatic world
who are unlikely to be swayed
by such propaganda and such
pressure, they are Adenauer
and Secretary Dulles, who
represents Eisenhower.

Dornberger, a native Ger
man, was critical of U.S. de
lays in the outer space pro

congressional committee
Jan. 9.
He said the military of this
country "should restrict them
selves after finding out what
they need," then turn the pro
duction over to private indus

tract to provide the vehicles
for outer space travel.
Dornberger began missile

in 1930. He was a two-star

Babson's Gravity
eories Expounded
By ROGER W. BABSON
Babson Park, Mass. For
some years I have been con
tributing large sums to the
Gravity Re
search Foun
dation of New
Bos ton, N.H.
We have been
trying to learn
what gravity
is whether it
it can be con
trolled. Gravi
ty inf luen c e s
Roger W. Babson
e v e r y t hing
from the lightest feather to
the heaviest metal. Thus far,
no insulator has been found
for gravity. To hold anything
up against the force of gravi
ty requires force.
Some believe that every
thing including thoughts,
prices, morals, ambition, and
faith are being constantly
pulled down by gravity. I
surely believe that such gravi
ty has a constant downward
pull on the stock market. As
constant force is needed to
keep up an airplane, kite, or
balloon, so constant buying
is needed to keep up prices.
Force can raise prices as it
can raise a load in an eleva
tor. Furthermore, prices will
fall as soon as this force is
removed. Sir Isaac Newton's
Law of Gravitation will be
found to apply to the actions
of the stock market.
We hear much about "value
lines," "Dow Theories," and
various statistical formulas to
forecast markets; but I be
lieve they are all helpless to
keep stocks up, or make them
rise, except as they increase
buying. By the law of gravita
tion, prices of all kinds, in
cluding real estate, bonds, and
interest rates will fall unless
supported. Thus the success
ful investor usually need only
wait until the artificial sup
ports are removed and he can
then get stocks at his own
price. This is why General
Electric, General Motors, and
other good stocks sold for
only a few dollars per share
in 1932. They kept declining
until support came. This will
again repeat itself.
Outlook for War
Newton's Law of Gravita
tion will determine the future
of international affairs. Con
ditions will continue to be
come worse until some nation
falls. This need not be Russia.
This fall will shorten the cold
war, and either hasten peace
or World War III. What Sec
retary Dulles, or Churchill,
or the Pope may say has very
little bearing. What nation
will be first to fall we do not
know, any more than we now
know which of our big corpo
rations will be the first to fall.
It will be the first one from
which support is withdrawn.
The same fact applies to
our national politics. Every
political party in power, re
mains in power until the pub
lic withdraws support. Then,
by Newton's Law, it falls

Go to Church!
In time of sorrow, as well as other troubles, there are none so lost
and alone as those who have no faith to hang on to, or a minister to
turn to for consolation.
Go to church if only for the selfish reason of building a founda

It seems reasonable to sug
gest that this bombardment
of such obvious propaganda
statements may already have
reached the poipt of diminish

way to reduce world tension.
right or wrong. As the seed
corn naturally falls to the
ground so does everything
else good and bad. England
and France won World War
II because of the support of
the U.S. The outcome of
World War III, if it comes,
will likewise depend upon
the support of our present
allies.
Gravitation of Morals
When I was a boy in church
and Sunday school, I was
seriously taught about a "per
sonal devil" who was con
tinually pulling me down
morally. Now this "personal
devil" has gone out of fashion
in most modern thinking; but
we are constantly being pull
ed down morally nevertheless.
One great trouble with our
nation today is that this "per
sonal devil" is no longer popu
lar and a few preachers have
given us anything worthwhile
in its place. They should
frankly tell us that "gravita
tion" is constantly pulling us
down morally as it is pulling
us down physically. It finally
pulls us into the grave.
All the above means that
there is no ultimate protec
tion in any stocks, bonds,
mortgages, real estate, or any
thing else, but constant super
vision, proper diversification,
and courage to age. Hence,
the rule is "from shirt sleeves
to shirt sleeves in three gen
erations" for those who neg
lect such support. Nature does
not provide security for any
of us. It is impossible to "re
tire" without rotting away.
Constant struggle against evil
is necessary for self-preservation
both for individuals and
nations. This law of gravita
tion not money, missiles or
other military equipment will
decide our future.

Dwight Eisenhower holds
two jobs:
1. President of the U.S.A.
2. Titular head of th GOP.
Job No. 1 calls for state-
manship. Job No. 2 calls for
politics. He worked at both
of them Monday. In the morn
ing, in Washington, he de
livered to the congress a re
port on the economic health
of the nation, with" recom
mendations as to what should
be done to preserve and im
prove our economic health.
He then flew to Chicago,
where he spoke at one of 44
fund-raising dinners held
around the nation to raise
funds to carry on the Repub
lican party's campaign in this
election year when it will be
determined whether the con
gress will be controlled by
the Republicans or the Demo
crats. AS OF NOW
Nothing is more certain i
than the Democrats will win
control of the congress this
year and will win the Presi
dency In 1960.
The only thing that can
change that present certainty
to an uncertainity is the
quality of LEADERSHIP Ike
is able to provide and the de
gree of success his leadership
achieves in straightening out
the difficulties that now face
us.
WHAT Ike said in Chicago
where he drorJDed his
role as President momentari
ly and assumed the role of
leader of his party won't
matter too much. These are
times when deeds count more
than words.
What he is able to accomp
lish in the way of leadership
that will GET AMERICA OR
GANIZED AND WORKING
BEHIND HIM will be every
thing. Dwight Eisenhower prob
ably commands the personal
faith and loyalty of more peo
ple than any other leader in
the world. That is why his
leadership job is going to be
so terribly important.
IT SEEMS to me, as one In
dividual American citizen,
that he did a pretty good job
in Chicago. He did a pretty
good job because in his pol
itical speech he was JUST
HIMSELF. He wasn't trying
to be anything else.
He advised the GOP lead
