Howard Morgan's Term Extended In FPC Position By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington (Special) - The White House is giving How ard Morgan an extra month or m ore on h 1 s expired term at the i Federal Pow er commission by virtue of indecision o n h i s successor. If they don't come up with a nomination i a Robt. smiu soon. Morgan I may use his spare time to f write a book about the New Frontiersmen he has encoun i tered - and it won't be a I. hymn of praise by any means. Jj Ever since he made public ! a letter to President Kennedy last winter in which he said he didn't want another ap- pointment. when his term ex "pired June 22, Morgan has been a center of controversy ' in Washington - as he often was in Oregon when he was Democratic state chairman. ! Morgan got bawled out by one of President Kennedy's ; top aides for not playing the political game according to New Frontier rules. If he .wanted to return to his Des i chutes county ranch, the White House thought the least he could do was to leave quietly and inconspicuously. But that's not Howard Mor . fan's style. ' Then he got hauled up be fore a House investigating committee, when he was badgered about the head and houlders by Republicans and some Democrats who treated him like a common cold, for suggesting that the private Utility industry ought to be regulated with some of the vigor the Kennedys advocate for physical fitness. The com mittee failed to investigate any of the areas Morgan sug gested, and the whole affair concluded in a mutuality of contempt. It Didn't Work t If this experience was de signed to disgrace Morgan and discredit his criticism, aomehow it didn't work out that way. .v A New York book publish ing firm asked him to tell his story between hard covers. The Saturday Evening Post has invited him to use their pages to speak out. He's in demand as a public speaker. J The public power side of the industry awarded him the teland Olds award, named for the late FPC chairman .during the Truman era. i Moreover, the political tics lie values haven't been dam aged by the experience, chief ly his relations with Sen. Wayne Morse and Rep. Edith Green. Although Congresswo man Green got Kennedy to appoint Morgan to the FPC, and she continues to be a Kennedy loyaist, she secretly admires Morgan for saying what he thinks. She held a party for him the week his term expired to show her es teem for the fellow who was most responsible for her entry into big time politics. 4 All of this adds up' to but one thing: Morgan is leaving . Washington but not leaving " politics; and the only question is when and where he will ; choose to strike out in his next i bid for public office. 5 There is no question but i what he would like to be gov fernor. If lightning should hit Gov. Mark Hatfield politically next year, putting him on a successful GOP national tic et, the governorship would be open to a newcomer. But presumably Hatfield would retain his nresent office, what ever happened on the national scene, through the 1B84 elec tion. If he lost, he would still be governor until 1966 when his term is ud: and if he won, he would be succeeded by the president of the Oregon state senate. Morgan, meanwhile, has plenty of time to chart his course. He said he didn't come to Washington to write bril liant dissenting opinions, but that is Just about how his ex ipnrp here turned out. that is how he is ex pected to spend the next few . weeks until the White House can find someone to take his That quest Is made difficult by Morgan t past criucism. v the administration wanu new commissioner with some thinff of Morgan's independ ence in Dacify the public power groups, but none of his rebellious spirit, nigm to the wire, Morgan is making iifo unmmfnrtable for the fJew Frontiersmen - but this is nothing compared to what ' it might be if he docs put everything he minus " book.

OREGON I Religion in America THURSDAY, JULY 4. 1963 Pope Paul Inherits Affection Christians Had for Predecessor By LOUIS CASSELS UPI Correspondent No Pope in a thousand years has begun his pontifi cate with" a greater reservoir of good will than Paul VI. As he takes up the lonely burdens of his office, Protest ants and Eastern Orthodox Christians are praying as earnestly as the world's half billion Catholics that he may be truly guided by the Holy Spirit. The unprecedented interest which non - Catholics are tak ing in the new Pope is a car ryover of the vast affection they had for his predecessor. By the sheer force of good ness. Pope John XXIII chan ged the whole image of the papacy for the non-Catholic world. During his reign, it was possible for those outside the Catholic fold to hear the authentic voice of a Good Shepherd speaking from the Throne of St. Peter. Pope Paul is too brilliant and sensitive, too aware of the world, not to realize that his present popularity is a leg acy. And, as he made clear in his first formal address, he is not ashamed to acknow ledge his inheritance. He is quite willing to be known as the Pope who came after the great John XXIII, and tried to carry on his work: ; Use Word 'Continue' In outlining the aims of his pontificate to the College of Cardinals, he repeatedly used the word, "continue." He said his "preeminent" concern would be the contin uation of the Ecumenical Council summoned by Pope John and automatically sus pended by his death. He also promised to "con tinue with full dedication the great work started by our predecessor" in attempting to "restore the unity" of the Christian family. "We are opening our arms to all those who take pride in the name of Christ," he said. "We are calling them by the precious name of brothers, and let them know that they will find in us constant under standing and benevolence. . ." Despite his devotion to John XXIII's goals of renewal and reunion, Paul VI is by no means a carbon copy of his predecessor. On the contrary, he differs from him very strikingly in temperment and personality, and it would be unreasonable for anyone to expect him to do things in the same style. Peasant's Son John XXIII was a peasant's son who retained an unaffect ed humility and simplicity all of his life. He had an irrepres sible sense of humor, a natur al affection for all sorts of people, and an innate dignity which could not be marred by the most outrageously infor mal conduct. Like St. Francis, he manifested the rare com bination of a Christ-like, self denying character with a hap py, outgoing personality. Paul VI is an introvert and an intellectual, intense in his feelings but disciplined in the expression of them. He is sub ject to melancholy moods. His compassion for humanity is said to be great, but it seems unlikely that he will display it with the same kind of spontaneous little gestures which so endeared John XXIII to the world. Being a good Pope, How ever, is not the same thing as winning a popularity con test. And there are reasons for suspecting that Paul VI may prove to be even more effect ive than his great predecessor in pursuing their common goals. The reasons Include his rel ative youth and vigor, and the reasonable expectation of a fairly long pontificate. Old Vatican Hand Also, as an old Vatican hand who spent 30 years in the sec retariat of state, he knows the varied and wonderous ways in which curia profes sionals may sidetrack and smother papal initiatives of which they disapprove. He is not likely to be as patient with such obstructionism as was the kindly old man whose slippers he seeks to fill. The curia conservatives did not approve of Pope John's Ecumenical Council. They tried to talk him out of it, and when they failed in that, they sought to postpone the date indefinitely. When It met last fall over their protests, they tied it up In protracted debate over draft statements which they had prepared, and which were directly contrary to the spirit of renewal and reunion. The tolerance which Pope John displayed toward these tactics dismayed many of the progressive bishops at the council, and it was not until weeks after the council met that they felt sure enough of the Pope's support to get on with the work of "updating" and reforming the church. When Paul VI summons the council back into session, it is a safe bet that things will move faster. Scholarship Goes To Valley Student Miss Linda Cornutt, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. James E.
