DRIVE IT-SIE YOUR AUTHORIZED CADILLAC DEALER SKINNER BUICK-CADILLAC Wayne Morse Loses No Time in Declaring His Independence A 3 A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON (Special) -Sen. Wayne Morse lost no time declaring his independence after President Lyndon B. Johnson assumed office. Was this simply the custom ary ritual of the Senate gadfly for propagating the legend that he fiercely withstands all pres sures and yields not even to the president of the United States in voting his conscience? Or was it a premature declar ation of hostilities by the Ore gon liberal senator who habit ually tangled with Johnson when the Texan was running the Sen ate in much too conservative fashion to suit Wayne Morse? Months Will Tell Only the coming months will tell. But the proposed Soviet wheat deal provided an oppor tunity for Morse to flare up with indignation aimed at the White House before Johnson was in of fice a week. It occured when the Senate killed a bill by Sen. Karl Mundt, K-o.D., which was designed to prevent the Export-Import bank from guaranteeing credits ex tended to the Soviets by Amer ican grain dealers who sell wheat to Russia. The late Presi dent Kennedy opposed the Mundl bill, and so did Johnson because Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon concluded that U.S. commercial banks aren't prepared to grant such credits and that "without Export-Import Bank guarantees, it is very doubtful that the sales can be made." Morse had testified for the Mundt bill before the Senate Banking Committee. The com mittee voted 8 to 7 against the bill, with Sen. Maurine Neuber ger among those who opposed it. When the Senate voted to kill it, 57 to 35, Morse was absent; but the Congressional Record the next day recorded him as paired against the Mundt bill. Declaration of Support Washington newspapers inter preted the vote as a senatorial declaration of support for the new president. But Morse didn't want anyone to suspect he had changed his mind or yielded to White House requests to vote against a bill he had been for. So he rose in high indignation the next day to say: "I did not case my vote on the basis of instructions that came to me from the White House, for in my opinion the president was dead wrong in the position he took on the Mundt bill. I do not sit in the Senate as a senator of the president of the United States. I sit in the Sen ate as a senator of the people of the slate of Oregon and it is to them that I owe my trust of following where the facts lead. I owe them and not the presi dent the duty of voting in the Senate in accordance with what I think the best public interest is lu connection with any issue and not in accordance with the wish of the president If I con sider him to be wrong on any issue." Morse prefaced this by telling the Senate that one of the presi dent's assistants had telephoned him to say the president "would like to have me vote against the Mundt bill." Morse said he re plied to the White House aide that he should tell the president that the Oregon senator "would vote for the Mundt bill because in my judgment it was in the public interest." Matter of Judgement "This is a matter of judg ment," observed Morse. "I am sure it will not be the last time that 1 will find myself in disa greement with the president of the United States on the merits of some issue." Morse explained his position on the bill by predicting that the Soviets may welch on the deal, refusing to pay the agreed costs in full. Morse said "our exper ience with Russian leaders Is perfectly clear." "I can hear them. They may say that they have found that the wheat is wormy. Or they have ifound it dirty. Or they have found this and that wrong with the wheat but they have found some excuse for welching on their purchase," he added. "I see no reason why taxpayers' money from the Export-Import Bank should be set up as a sub sidy guarantee to the grain deal ears of the U.S., assuring them that they can trade without loss because the taxpayers will guar antee their payments." Dr. Petersen Author Of Planning Guide ASHLAND - "A Guide for Planning the Field House as a College or School Physical Edu cation Facility" has been pub lished by the Institute of Field Studios Teachers College, Co lumbia University, and written by Dr. Alexander Petersen Jr., of Southern Oregon College. According to Dr. Henry H. Linn, institute editor, the guide is important because it "dis cusses not only what to do, but also what not to do" in planning the erection of a field house for physical education activities. Dr. Petersen, who serves the college as head of the health and physical education depart ment, has discussed the subject in four major areas: develop ment, planning, design, and the operation and servicing of the unit. The chapters are illustrat ed with numerous schematic drawings and photographs.
