MEDFOBD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON In the Day's News FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 1963 By FRANK JENKINS Oregon's Governor Hatfield reported to have told a member of (ho n c u.. . - ... w . lj . lluuac U Representatives education and woor committee, which is con sidering President Kennedy's omnibus federal education bill, that he doesn't think Or egon wants federal school aid. That rubbed the fur the wrong way on Speaker Clar ence Barton, of the Oregon House of Representatives-who was miffed the other day when Governor Hatfield ac cused the ways and means THE BIBLE SPEAKS D TO YOU Sunday, 9:00 a.m. K-SHA-860 kc flit uk't Chrutim Seitnet ptog rest "The Answer to a Bed Disposition" committee of the Oregon legis lature of "wielding a meat cleaver" on some of the gov ernor's requests for appropriations. SO In Salem Barton disagreed sharply with the governor on the issue of federal aid for Oregon's schools. As quoted by the re porters, he said: "I don't think the governor speaks for the majority of Oregon people on this question." He pointed to Oregon's ba sic school support program where, he said, some "have" areas share with "have not" areas. Federal aid, he said, is designed to do the same thing at the federal level. SPEAKER BARTON then added: "There is a place for federal aid in Oregon's school pro gram. "Oregon is a COLONIAL state.

RIVERSIDE MEDFORD go to Detroit or to the Cali fornia oil fields." ALL of our money? Oh no, sir! A lot of it would keep on going to Washington for fed eral taxes. Last year, for ex ample, we sent back to Wash ington some $600 million for our share of the FEDERAL taxes. Thafs about 50 per cent more than we are proposing to raise for our own Oregon state budget for the next bi-ennium. ET'S look at it this way: " wnen we send money to Detroit, we GET AUTOMO BILES BACK. When we send money to California, WE GET GASO LINE BACK. IIE DON'T build automo- ' ' biles. When we send mon ey to Detroit and get automo biles in return, we don't go into competition with any lo cal industries. We WANT au tomobiles. We NEED automo biles. We couldn't get along without them. We don't produce gasoline We have no oil wells within out Oregon borders, we NEED gasoline. Without it, our econ omy, in these modern days, would go to pot. TJUT- " When we send money to Washington, we get GOV ERNMENT back. We don't need to import government. We have vast quantities of it right here in our own state-BETTER GOV ERNMENT, most of us are in clined to believe, than the government we get from Washington. AND- Not only docs Oregon consume a lot of government. Oregon produces a lot of government. Oregon, from time to time, even EXPORTS government-the initiative, the referendum and the recall, for example. Under the product name of The Oregon Plan, Or egon has shipped popular gov ernment all over the country. The situation, sir, is quite different. Strictly Personal By Sydney J. Harris (c Field Enterprises, Inc. TACT At the bridge table the oth er night, we were perform ing a post-mortem on a hand, and someone m e n t i oned that his part ner had made a "tactful" bid rather than a truth ful one. Then we began to discuss how far truthful- Harris ness should be modified in the. interest of tact - both at and away from the bridge table - and it was generally agreed that, of all people, the French are best at this delicate task. One of the players recalled the story about the time Mar shal Foch was In this country on a mission during World War I, and was buttonholed by a loud Westerner who began sneering at French po liteness. "I here a nothing in it but wind," he snorted. "There ii nothing but wind in a tire," the mar shal answered with trua politesse, "but it makes rid ing in a ear very smooth and pleasant." This reminded another of the time Talleyrand, the French statesman, sat at dinner between the reign ing French beauty and Mme. de Stael, who was as homely as she was brilliant. She turned to Talleyrand and asked: "Tell me the truth - if you, this beauti ful woman, and I wera in a boat together, and it over- i turned, which one would you save?" "Ah, madame," Talley- i rand shrugged, "you swim o well." J Even Erench bureaucracy has its own form of graci ousness. Secretary Lansing was fond of telling about the French government of ficial whose job it was to issue passports. I One morning he was con fronted with the task of mak- j ing out a passport for a rich 1 and eminently respectable lady who had only one eye. Not wishing to hurt her feel-, ings, the gallant Frenchman : filled out the description: I "Eyes, brilliant, brown, and i expressive, only one is miss ing." Often the literal truth can give a falser impression than a tactful remark. Billy Phelps, the popular English professor at Yale, used to tell the story about the captain of a ship who wrote in his log. "Mate was drunk today." When the mate recovered, he was angry and chagrined, and requested that the no tation be stricken because this was the first time he had ever been drunk on duty. "Sorry," said the captain, "in Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF- yiCTOR MATURE, dressed as a Roman soldier of Caesar's legions for a historical picture, took advantage of a break in the day's shooting schedule to repair to a nearby took with him two lesser actors in similar garb. - The bartender wasn't used to serving movie actors in costume, and his eyes popped when Ma ture and his friends walked in. Mature, not ing his astonishment, asked casually, "Whafs the matter, pop? Don't you cater to service men here?" - A very pretty lady on a world cruise decided she had to bring home a pair of wooden clogs from Bong Kong the kind tiny-footed Orientals used to wear. The manager of a bootery there took one look at the lady's very large feet and told her frankly, "We could make a pair specially for you, but we'd have to send to the mainland for the lumber." O 1963. by Bennett Cert. Distributed by Kins Feature Syndicate Washington Report By William S. Whit (c) United Feature Syndicate f ir .i Whit CABINET CHANGE Washington A cabinet change to tighten the Kennedy administration's ship polit- Vilv ically against we presi dent's ap p r o a c h i ng campaign for re-election of next year may be ex pected within a few months. It will involve what has been, until recent years, the most frankly "political" post within the cabinet. Postmast er General J. Edward Day of California will retire, under present planning, in favor of some lame-duck but still powerful Democrat from one of the big electoral-vote states where Democratic fortunes have been on the wane. Michael DiSalle of Ohio and Richardson Dilworth of Pennsylvania, both defeated gubernatorial candidates of last fall, are high on the list of probabilities to succeed Day. IN 1964 the President will badly need Pennsylvania, which he carried in I960, and Ohio, which he lost. And the fact that since 1960 both have turned from Democratic to Republican control at the statehouse will surely not ease that problem. Moreover, though he will no doubt in fact be his own campaign manager, the folk lore of politics will more or less require him to have an official manager. This cannot again be his brother Robert, since his position as attorney general would surely inhibit him from undertaking the all out partisanship of such a post. The long and short of it thus is that the President needs to strengthen the party politically for 1064 and has about decided to do it through the old-fashioned route of the Post Office department, which, until the Eisenhower administration and thus far in the Kennedy administration, had nearly always been the home of the resident boss po- this log we write the exact truth." The next week the mate kept the log, and in 't he wrote: "Captain was sober to day." The exact truth, of course, but how docs il read to the official eye?" litically hort of the Presi dency itself of the party in power. fHUS the man who goes in to succeed Day will also very likely be, in the formal sense anyhow, a high member of the 1964 campaign direct orate. There is no doubt what ever, of course, that in the basic sense the camnnien will be run from the White House and that its high policy will be determined, as before, hv John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy. The news, however, is not that the cabinet cuard will he changed for 1964, but rather that it will be changed so lit tle. No president has ever en tered office with smalW Hu. man knowledge of the men ne wouia cnoose to be his cabinet associates, and four presidents in historv have been so generally content with the choices they did make, in this case they were made intuitivelv bv President Kennedy. Several of those he ap pointed he hardly knew, be cause of his youth, at all. Others he knew in only the slightest way. And those he knew the least were, as it happened, those who would hold the blseest and most Hlf- ficult Jobs Dean Rusk as Secretary of State, Robert McNamara as Secretary of Defense and Douglas Dillon as Secretary of the Treasury. THESE are all "non-politic als." Two, McNamara and Dillon, are in fact of Repub lican background. All three are highly satisfactory to the President, perhaps because they leave the politicking to him and have no fire in the belly for ideological causes. They just do their lobs, and though very different in many ways, tney are remarkably alike in some major qualities. All three are quiet men, steady in the clutches, brief in speaking and tough in ac tion where need be. There isn't a dime's worth of two-bit partisanship in ill three of them put together and this, at any rate, is a cheering thought in the kind of world in which we live. Highland, N.
