Boyle's Column
Back Porch Proposal For
White House Raises Furor
By II AL HOYI.E
WAHIIINGTON, Jan. 1 W'r
Wlnu gxxl la a house with no back
IKirrh?
Well, In good timea a lot of people
throuithout tlie country would anlff
at a home without one.
President Harry 8. Truman docn't
have nn unbreakable lease, but like
lot of tenant ft?
llme.
Bo he In going
ahead with plans
for building a
$16,000 balcony
on Hie south aide
of the White
House. And he
has Indicated the objections of op
ponents, whether Inspired by politi
cal or architectural considerations,
won't stop him.
Db,ret!iirdlng the political side of
the question and It Is an election
ill
years there is no doubt that Tru
man lias rameu in uyiiiouucui jimii-
lon the question of who rules the
roost, the landlord or the tenant
Rents have always been frozen In
the White House Just as they are
for most other tenant throughout
the country at the moment and
the occupants have usually had
their say about the changes.
The matter of changing and re
pairing the executive mansion has
never come down to a direct vote
of the multl-mlllon landlord owners.
The attitude of most presidents
seems to have been that:
'The American people own it, all
right, but they don't hare to live In
It. My wife does and If she says
we're going to fix up the place we're
going to."
So there has probably never been
a year since It was built that Hie
White House hasn't been modified
In some way.
In defending his balcony program
the other day, Truman cited Mrs.
Millard Fillmore. Fillmore, like Tru
man, became chief executive after
Hie death of Hie elected president
"Old Rough and Ready" Taylor, who
In 1650 washed down some wild
l)ernes with ice water against Hie
advice of his physician and died of
typhoid fever.
The executive mansion was a
mess. A contemporary described it
at the time that Mrs. Fillmore, a
stern-faced lady with lace cap and
ringlets, took over:
"The Flllmores found the White
House In a miserable condition,
dirty and bare, with no corner that
seemed like a home. The great room
over Hie blue room was covered with
a straw carpet made filthy by
tobacco chewers."
Determined Mrs. Fillmore Just
like President Truman said
cleaned up the home, put In its
first bathtub (scandalously exciting
then and regarded by some as Im
moral ) and installed a cookstove to
supplement Hie fireplace, where
state dinners for 36 people hitherto
had been cooked.
The changes have gone on steadi
ly ever since, moulding the show
place home of democracy to fit the
advancing times and Hie needs of lis
tenants for more space. It has
spread with the expanding republic
and widening government functions.
If It came to sprawl well, so does
America.
In 1870-71 one of the arguments
used by those seeking to move the
nntional capitol was that the White
! House had cost lil5,078 from the
, lime of Washington to 1838.
The proposal to hang on a bal
cony at the south end has stirred
the same furore as many earlier
changes.
Some friends of the president
feel, however, he would have saved
considerable controversy If he had
called It a "back porch" instead of
a "balcony." Where Truman springs
from the farming Midwest no
body would quarrel with a man who
wanted to build a back porch.
Screened In against Hie mosqui
toes, it's a wonderful place to sit
in a rocker and see how the live
stock's doing.
Head-On Crash
Kills Officer
THE DALLES. Jan. 19 (PI State
Police Officer Leroy Splckerman,

here yesterday after a head-on col
lision that sent six occupants of a

pital. The crash demolished both vehi
cles. Splckerman died 12 hours after
the accident on the Columbia gorge
route east of the city.
Police said the driver of the sec
ond car, Wallace Meachnm, and his
five passengers, all of Portland, suf
fered broken bones but were not
critically hurt,
Splckerman is survived by a widow
and twin sons, three months old.
A cold-blooded animal Is one
whose temperature varies with its
surroundings.
Girl Mothers
Never before have our cities
shown so many girl mothers. So
sny the school workers who total
the figures.
Under Old Testament law, these
girl mothers might have been led
out and stoned to death. Then
Christ snying to go and sin no
more. He did not OKAY any sin.
Instead. He went His way to Cal
vary where Ho died for the ains
of all of us. He died for your sins
and came up from death and the
grave to dwell In your heart and
be new life to you. "I am come
that they might have life and have
It more abundantly." His word
BIBLE. Believe Ood, that Christ
suffered your death penalty. Be
lieve and have new life for now
and for eternity. Thou shalt not
commit adultery. BIBLE.
