Back Stairs: A Momentous Occasion By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI Whil House Reporter Washington (LTD Back stairs at the White House: It was not until a day or two later that those who watched President Eisenhow er announce the resignation of John Foster Dulles fully realized what a momentous occasion they had witnessed. Probably never before, and certainly not as President, had Eisenhower displayed his feelings so demonstrably in public. Reference Removed One well-known newspaper correspondent filed his dis patch and reported in the first paragraph that the Presi dent's eyes were brimming with tears as he announced Dulles' departure from gov ernment. This fellow's editor prompt ly removed the reference to tears. Simply couldn't believe it. Then the pictures showed up. One member of Eisenhow er's personal entourage at Augusta, Ga., where the Presi dent made the Dulles an nouncement, said that in thousands of photographs of Eisenhower, he'd never seen the Chief Executive looking as dejected as he was in the shots made of him inside his car as he drove away from his Georgia press conference. The White House staff, par ticularly the personnel in the Presidential section of the Manager of Sporting Goods Store Named Vernon E. Craft, Medford, has been named manager of Century Sporting Goods, Inc., 36 South Riverside ave., Med ford, according to E. E. Mc Grew, president of the firm. Craft was named an Ail American high school football player and all -state high school basketball player while a student at Grants Pass. He studied at the University of Washington where he was on the football team. He has a degree from Gonzaga univer ity, Spokane. executive mansion, are look ing forward with real antici pation to the visit next month of Sir Winston Churchill, the former British prime minister. Sir Winston's last residence in the White House was in June of 1954. The house staff was utterly fascinated by him. A' courteous "how are you this morning" sometimes brought only a grunt, but sometimes a voluble reply, re plete with typical Churchilli an phrases, would roll forth. Anticipatory, of Churchill's arrival here May 4, a friend of his recently brought back this story from Europe: Not so many years ago, Sir Winston was noted for , his love of brandy and scotch - and his ability to consume Endurance Flight Ends at K. Falls Klamath Falls, Ore.-UPD-An attempt at a light plane en durance flight ended in fail ure Thursday night when a pump broke and sent gasoline into the cockpit during a ground-to-air refueling opera tion. The ACS Crusader, piloted by Gene Tanner and Lew Becker of Seattle, made a safe landing here at 6:15 p.m., ex actly 11 days. 11 hours and 45 minutes after they began their second attempt at beat ing the 64-day light plane endurance record. Ralph Williamson, head of the ground refueling crew, said both pilots were very dis appointed and said they did not know when they could start again. Damage was extensive and Williamson said it would be some time before the plane would be able to take to the air again. He said the ground crew and pilots were trying to transfer gasoline from the wing tank to the belly tank when the pump broke and gasoline started seeping into the cockpit. The flight was sponsored by the American Cancer Society, Special Ice Cream Offer to Ex-Servicemen You're entitled to o special discount en our Cherry-Fudge Ice Cream when you present your honorable discharge certifi cate from the French Foreign Legion.

Forced To Cut Down With the advance of age -he's now 84 and recent ill nesses, the doughty World War II leader of the British has had to cut down, on cigars as well as brandy. He apparently doesn't rel ish the diminution of his ro bust reputation, however. Sir Winston has developed his own way of coping with the gossips who talk about how he's getting so old that he has to cut down. He'll order a drink quite vociferously and even at an odd hour like 11 o'clock in the morning, accept it with great flourish, take a smack ingly appreciative sip - then never touch it again.

Contributions to Reform Noted by Neuberger in Talk Washington Oregon's con tributions . to American gov ernmental reform blazed a "second Oregon Trail" which may be remembered longer than the original wagon route, Sen. Richard L. Neuberger told the Senate today in a speech noting Oregon's Cen tennial celebration. Neuberger said the "Oregon System" - consisting of the political procedures known as the initiative, referendum and recall and including the direct election of United States Sen ators - represented a path marked by political pioneers with courage and persistency i.equal to those who crossed the plains. . y The Oregon Senator traced the efforts of William S- U'Ren which resulted in the estab lishment of these direct gov ernment measures and caused Lincoln Steffens to describe him as "The Law-Giver." Adopted Elsewhere Neuberger noted that fol lowing Oregon's action, the initiative and referendum have been adopted in varying degree by 39 other states and that the recall is part of the constitution of 28 states. He credited U'Ren with leading the fight in Orggon for direct election of Senators by creation of a plan known as "Proposition No. 1" - a pledge asked of each nominee for the Oregon Legislature in which he promised to vote for the candidate for Senator who received the highest number of the people's votes for that position." "With one State electing its Senators at the polls, the old appointment form had not a chance of surviving else where," Neuberger told the Senate. "The contrast was too great. In 1913 the 17th amend ment to the Federal Constitu tion was ratified, thus spread ing from sea to shining sea William S. U'Ren's conviction that the U. S. Senate should represent the sovereign will of the people as expressed at the ballot box." "We tend today to take for granted many of these gov ernmental and social reforms," Neuberger declared, "but as the story of U'Ren illustrates, they were won for us with courage and perseverance not unlike that exhibited by our bravest and most brilliant generals." Historic Decision Neuberger also reminded the Senate of the historic 1908 United States Supreme Court decision in Muller vs. Oregon, in which the Court affirmed the progressive legislation passed by the Oregon legisla ture five years earlier limit ing the working hours of women in factories and laun dries to 10 hours a day. The case became famous, he noted, for the "Brandeis brief," a memorable defense of the leg islature's action prepared by Louis D. Brandeis. He pointed out that Oregon was one of the first states to initiate workmen's accident compensation and early recog- MDFOPD-i . Tribune 3 Friday, April 24, 1959 Japanese Voters Beat Left-Wingers Tokyo - (LTD - Communist leaning left-wing parties suf fered major defeats Thursday in nation-wide elections of governors and prefectural leg islatures. The results were considered a victory for the government of Premier Nobusuke Kishi whose policies were attacked by his opposition as too pro Western. Results tabulated today showed Kishi's Liberal-Democrats and their conservative allies won the governor's races in 13 of 19 prefectures including Tokyo and Osaka. Three each went to the inde pendents and the left-wingers. The left-wing Socialists had pegged their election platform upon "independence from the United States" and "recogni tion of Communist China." Kishi favors close ties with the United States, is consider ed pro-Western, and has op posed recognition of Peiping. STORM SINKS VESSELS Seoul, Korea -(UPI)- Five persons were drowned and 38 were reported missing when a ferry and three fishing boats capsized during a storm Thursday off the Korean west coast.

"These illustrations indicate clearly that the first 100 years of my state of Oregon have not-as too many people be-lieve-been filled only with In dian fighting and lumbering," Neuberger said. "We Oregon ians are truly proud of the rich pioneer heritage of our state. But we are also proud of the heritage of reform which we have been able to share with all the United States." grid's Jest Synonym Jor "Quality! In every land where automobiles are seen and appreciated, the Cadillac name has become a part of the language. In fact, it would be safe to say that "Cadillac" is now an international synonym for "quality". What a telling tribute this is to the motor car that bears this proud name and that has given the Cadillac ideal such widespread recognition. And certainly, that ideal of quality has never been more clearly evident or more beautifully delineated than it is in the current "car of cars". First of all, it can be seen in the majesty of its lines and contours ... in the regal grace of its silhouette . . . and in the jewel-like elegance of its finish and trim. Or it can be felt in the brilliant response of its great new engine ... in the incredible smoothness of its ride . . . and in the ease with which it drives and handles. It can even be sensedin the superb taste of its interior appointments ... and in the matchless character of its beautiful fabrics and leathers. And yes, it can be heard in the marvelous quiet of its operation . . . and its truly wonderful silence on even the roughest of byways. In brief, the Cadillac name has never before represented excellence in such great measure as a personal appraisal will amply demonstrate. We suggest you visit your authorized Cadillac dealer soon and view your favorite highway through the wind shield of a 1959 Cadillac. It will give you a new understanding of how truly fine a motor car can be.
