reported to have told a
member of (ho n c u.. .

Representatives education and
woor committee, which is con
sidering President Kennedy's
omnibus federal education
bill, that he doesn't think Or

That rubbed the fur the
wrong way on Speaker Clar

House of Representatives-who

committee of the Oregon legis

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

state. If it were not for federal
grants all our money would

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.

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

have to send to the mainland for the lumber."

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.
