; Views Differ on
j Ike's Leadership
Given Congress
: Washington - (UPD Demo-
crats and Republicans were
in sharp disagreement today
; on just how much leadership
President Eisenhower provid-
ed for the recently adjourned
Congress.
GOP members of Congress
5 hailed the chief executive as
J the real leader of this year's
'" session. Bat several Demo-
crats -said that if he showed
leadership, it was in the di-
rection of bigger spending.
The President was praised
for "vigorous leadership" by
such members of his party as
I Senate Republican Whip
J Thomas Kuchel (Calif.), Sen.
i Karl E. Mundt (S.D.) and Rep.
Harold C. Ostertag (N.Y.).
; Dissenting from the GOP
t interpretation were Senate
5 Democratic Leader Lyndon
B- Johnson and his assistant,
J Sen. Mike Mansfield.' -i
They declared that ; the
jemocratic - controlled . Con-
t '"ress had cut Eisenhower's
ecord oeacetime spending
proposals by $1,800,000,000.
A third approach was taken
by Oregon's sometime lone
wolf, Sen. Wayne Morse (D
Ore.). He accused Democratic
congressional leaders of yield
ing far too often to the Presi
dent's demands. Morse called
for a. resurgence by congres-
; sional liberals. .
I The barrage of statements
came on the heels of the Presi
? dent's charge Saturday that
I the Democratic Congress piled
! up a record of "many disap-
pointing failures." He credit-
ed an "outspoken citizenry
and GOP House-Senate lead
: ers for checking "excessive"
spending proposals.

Editorials Lack
'Bite' Speaker
Reports at Meet
Timberline Lodge - Robert
B. Duncan, speaker of the
Oregon legislature, encour
aged Oregon editorial writers
to summarize both sides of a
controversy before the editor
gives his own conclusion.
Speaker Duncan was one
of the speakers at the Edi
torial Writers' Conference of
the Oregon Newspaper Pub
lishers association held in
Timberline Lodge last week
end.
The local attorney said that
he felt that the Oregon press
was not entirely fair in its
editorial columns, speaking as
a Democrat and legislator. He
criticized the use, of slang ex
pressions in editorials, stating
that this detracts from the
dignity one expects to find
in an editorial.
Editorial Pagts
Also commenting on the
state newspaper's editorials
was Donald M. DuShane, dean
of students at the University
of Oregon. He mentioned sur
veying the editorial pages of
a selected group of dailies and
weeklies and told of a defi
nite lack of editorials which
had a "bite" in them. He said
that the majority of the edi
torials dealt with noncontro
versial subjects.
Editorial writers agreed
during a discussion which fol
lowed the speakers that u an
editorial is to have "bite" and
h short enough to attract
readers, it need not give both
sides of an argument, ims is
especially true, it was decided
if the news columns have pre
sented the facts fully..
Reports on readability of
Oregon newspapers and ex
periences in conducting edi
torial campaigns were also
presented at the meeting.
Monroe Sweetland of the
Milwaukie Review was elect
ed chairman for 1960 when
news executives will hold a
conference. Editorial writers
will meet again in 1961 with
Robert W. Chandler, Bend
Bulletin, chairman.

Stooge Name
Hung on Reuther
San Francisco -UP&- Soviet
Premier Nikita Khrushchev
got into an uproarious and
hot exchange with American
union leaders late Sunday
night after receiving in San
Francisco the warmest public
reception of his tour.
Union chiefs were still ar
guing today exactly what
Khrushchev said in the com
motion, but there was general
agreement that he did insist
that workers in Russia have
the right to strike.
Reuther Blasted
Khrushchev blasted Walter
Reuther, United Auto Work
ers Union president as a "cap
italist stooge" when Reuther
asked him why he pretended
only Communists wanted to
help the working man.
The dinner and argument
lasted for three hours and 15
minutes and ended shortly be
fore midnight. Khrushchev
went up for a five-minute look
at the lights of the city from
the top of the Mark Hopkins
hotel and then retired to his
'royal suite" on the 16th floor
of the hotel v
The AFL-CIO was holding
its national convention here
but President George Meany
pointedly stayed away from
meeting Khrushchev. James
B. Carey of the Electric Work
ers Union along with Reuther
was a prime mover in arrang
ing the dinner.
Reuther Held Briefing
Reuther held a "briefing"
for 300 newsmen after the
session and gave his version
of what had happened.
Reuther said . he - asked
Khrushchev: "I would like to
know what a Soviet worker
can do - can he strike? Can
he withhold labor's power?"
Khrushchev was said to
have replied:
Yes. he has the right to
strike and there have been
strikes since the revolution.
But there have been no recent
strikes because the worker
knows the government is on
his side."
Reuther said he pressed the
point further and got the argu
ment that "labor and govern
ment are of one mind."
The '. Communist leader be
came very upset, Reuther
said, when union leaders ask
ed him to explain the mass
exodus from North Korea,
Poland,- Hungary ' and other
nations where Reds had tak
en over the government.
Told To Think It Over
. Khrushchev told his Ques
tioners to think it over and
answer for themselves.
'You drink some beer and
you will find the answers," he
said.
- At this point, Reuther said,
'matters got out of hand."
- Foreign Minister Andrei
Gromyko and Yuri Zhukov,
minister for cultural and for
eign exchanges were among
the Russians present. Other
union leaders were Joseph
C u r r a n. National Maritime
Union; Karl F. Feller, United
Brewery Workers; O. A.
Knight, Oil, Chemical and
Atomic Workers; Paul Phil
lips, United Paper Makers;
Emil Rieve, Textile-Workers;
Reuther's brother, Victor
Reuther and George P. Weav
er, Carey's administrative as
sistant.
Khrushchev had b e e n in
good spirits on his arrival and
during the daylong train trip
Sunday from Los Angeles in
which he laughed off the idea
he - was thinking of' going
home in aneer after his clash
with Mayor Norris Paulson;
"Why should I go home,"
he said. "But I don't intend
to stay forever." ' : "
Some Cheered
Ten thousand persons ap
plauded - and some cheered
Khrushchev when his car ar
rived outside the Mark Hop
kins. Khrushchev spent five
minutes waving and acknowl
edging the greeting which he
said was "khorosho (Good).
But shortly after he joined
the union leaders at dinner
he was embroiled in a hot and
heavy exchange in which he
became ' excited and cracked
back hotly at his inquisitors.

San Francisco-(UPD -Labor
leaders indicated today , that
production slowdowns may be
staged in several major indus
tries if the government in
vokes the Taft-Hartley act and
striking steelworkers are or
dered back to work.
It was learned authorita
tively by United Press Inter
national that a possible gener
al slowdown across the nation
was being planned, mcinly by
officials of the United Auto
Workers.
No Formal Statement
However, labor officials de
clined to issue a formal state
ment because of the possibil-
version, ' Khrushchev called
him a capitalist lackey, a
capitalist stooge. Reuther said
he told another questioner,
"that's a stupid'question" and
called Reuther a "dictator"
when he tried to amplify a
question. 1
Knight asked Khrushchev
about self-determination, par
ticularly in East Germany.
Reuther said Khrushchev, said
German workers supported
the nationalization of indus
try and insisted there are free
elections in East Germany.
Brings Up Hungary
, Knight brought up Hun
gary. "Hooligans and saboteurs
launched the counter-revolution
in Hungary," Khrush
chev replied. Reuther said the
premier said he never had
doubts about launchmg mili
tary power against hooligans
and saboteurs.

pi
One high-ranking AFL-CIO
leader, attending the union's
convention here, said nossible
slowdowns were being consid
ered in the aircraft and elec
trical industries, as well as in
steel and autos. He said any
industry which jiised large
quantities of steel might be
involved, if an injunction is
issued and steel production
resumes.
Ice Can Invoke Act
President Eisenhower can
invoke the Taft-Hartley act
whenever he considers that
the steel strike is creating a
national emergency, under an
injunction, the steel workers
would be ordered back to
their iobs but would be free
to go on strike again if a set
tlement had not been reached
after 80 days.-
The only public -statement
concerning a possible slow
down was a hint last week by
Emil Mazey. secretary-treas
urer of the UAW. Mazey said
that workers might not have
"any enthusiasm if an injunc
tion was issued. '
In the Dast. auto workers
have been able to cut produc
tion by as much as 40 per cent
by upsetting the timing of the
production line. It was be
lieved that production in oth
er industries also could be
drastically slashed.
