Bock Stairs: Ike's Interesting Period By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI Correspondent Washington - !DPD - Back stairs at the White House: The men and women who know President Eisenhower better than most of his inner circle predict that his remain ing 26 months in office will be the most interesting of his White House career. Eisenhower can be expected to throw more punches in be half of his governmental the ories than he has in the past. He will be more inclined to use his veto powers than he has in previous years if he regards legislation as quest ionable and unwise. This authoritatively report ed attitude of the chief exec utive does not point to any particular preparations for warfare with the heavily Democratic Congress. In fact, Eisenhower is prepared to start next year in quest of the greatest possible degree of co operation with the Democratic House and Senate leaders. But the people closest to him sense a sleeves-rolled-up readiness which could well mean a stern attitude toward proposals stemming from members of his own party, as well as from the Demo crats. Eisenhower apparently be lieves quite strongly that the Republicans would not be in their present plight in, Con gress if more GOP standard bearers had adhered more closely to his proposals, his theories. Assuming this to be true, then the President feels no great debt of gratitude or any other sort to his political party. A member of the Presi dent's official family who sees the Chief executive on business about as frequently as any cabinet-level officer, has some interesting ideas which he was willing to share with United Press Interna tional. "The President spoke a lot during the recent campaign about the need to reduce fed eral spending," this official said. "My hunch is that he was speaking as much, possi bly more, to the remaining Republicans in Congress as he was to the Democrats. "Everyone expects the Dem ocrats to rush into the House and Senate next year with a lot of wild spending schemes. My hunch is this: Some Re publicans will be right in there, too, on the theory that this will help them in 1960. "My belief, educated or not, is that the President really expects the Democratic lead ership to steer clear of spend ing proposals that will add to the deficit or the public debt. So, he may find him self in the position of having to slap down some of his own party members. And I believe he'll do it." Quite aside from fiscal con siderations, it is true that as a President approaches the homestretch of his career, knowing well that he cannot succeed himself and thus suf fering a certain loss of per sonal power, he is inclined to regard domestic issues in a somewhat different light. Po litical sensitivity does not FrV it immmmmmmmmmmmmm KILLED when his helicopter crashed on Okinawa Satur day was Rear Admiral Leon ard D'.

On the night of the 1944 election, the late President Roosevelt assembled returns in his Hyde Park, N.Y., li brary until he knew that a message of concession from the Republican, Thomas E. Dewey, was only a remaining formality. As FDR prepared tg go to bed, he called his press sec retary, Stephen T. Early, to his side and said, "Steve, go ahead and make up your list." Early laughed and bade his boss goodnight. The list" was a symbolic term cov ering the causes and persons who constantly irritate an Administration with persis tent demands, whimpering re quests, indignant protests all of which must be dealt with in relative civility for sake of the party. Roosevelt, after his election to a fourth term, knew he had run for the last time and thus, he looked forward to greater independence in the White House than ever before. This is not to infer that Eisenhower now has what FDR called a " list." But somewhere around the White House, there is a com pendium just as functional as Roosevelt's list. It may not be reduced to writing, but the entries are well known. How will ' this symbolic "list" reflect itself in Eisen hower's day to day life? Since his 1955 heart attack, his social life has been some what restricted. He'll pay less attention to criticism. If he wants to go to a beach in Pago Pago for a month, he'll do it and the cartoonists can draw them selves into a frenzy without changing his mind. The "must" list of public and ceremonial appearances will contract noticeably. And if he wants to go to Burning Tree five times a week, he'll answer only to his wife, not to his critics. And the official who tries to set Administration policy on a particular matter without "bothering the boss" is liable to find himself on the receiv ing end of a very sharp-toed, highly polished boot. .

DAVID L. - I'm a misfit in the city. DORIS Y. - I am a mar ried woman with two small children. My only real prob lem is my younger brother, whom I'm trying to help. Dave is 26 and is still floun dering in life. We come from a small town and Dave was helping my father in the bus iness. He and my father does not get along very well. He has a college education and was planning to do something in the professional world, but seemed unable to make up his mind just what. I invited Dave to come to stay with me, to look for a job. We live in a very large city and I know that there are lots of jobs around, but Dave doesn't find anything. He wants to go home, but I'm afraid that would be death to him. . DAVID L. - I seem to be one big misfit. It's true our home town is death to me, but I'm no city slicker either. I never thought the compe tition would be anything like this in the city. Wherever I go for a job, people laugh and tell me that others with much more edu cation and experience than I have are begging for jobs at less money than I would need to live on. "They say I I made a big mistake when I left a town where every one knows me to come to the rity where I am not known and nobody gives a darn about me. My job problem is really very serious because I have not been trained to do any thing except some manual work and bookkeeping in my father's business. I can't go on living off my small savings and inconveniencing my sis ter and her family. So I must go home. The Council: David's big problem does not appear to be a real job problem' but a personal problem involving his determination to accent the negative .about himself and everything around him. Unfortunately, i n d i viduals with this turn of mind man age to find plenty of corro boration from the outside. Those who approach their problems in a positive way manage to find encourage ment rather than discourage ment. x David has a college educa tion, intimate business experi ence, some skill at bookkeep ing, g ome experience of man ual labor. This he admits but he considers nothing. We would guess that if he really delves into his complete back ground he will find that he has other strong points. We are fairly cer' in that he can be of great use to some em ployer. David should carefully an alyze all his experience and abilities and try to come to a decision about what he wants to do. When he has nar rowed down his field of in terests and pinned down his abilities, he will be ready to start looking for a job in earn est. If he finds that he lacks the training to do exactly what he wants to do, he should set about getting that training, either , through schooling or on-the-job exper ience, For a man of 25 to say he lacks training and leave it at that is just ridiculous. It is probably that at this point David does not really know whether he is cut out for town life or city life. But we believe that he can live a fuller, more productive life in either place if he makes an active effort to bring out his abilities and stops pitying himself for his lack of them.
