"You know, without my aaylng, that my service Is, as it alwaya haa been, entirely at the disposi tion of our country. My best to you, Ike. As alwavs, "MACARTHUR." I suppose you mast hsve noticed that for months the busybodies. ine Lll ILL souls, me ne-gonsips, the eiirrer-uppers of tlcky, nasty littles talea hsve been blowing their tinny little trumpets about the sup posed feud between General Elsen hower and General MacAruiur. If you'll read those messsges csre- fully. thoughtfully and prayerfully. I 4 It you must come lo the conclusion K that there Isn't a word of truth In " these contemptible tales and never was a word of truth In them. ORE AT AMERICANS are OKKAT AMERICANS. When their country's future Is al alske. ihey ,WOHK! TOOETJIKR, shoulder to shoulder, each giving his best, for their country's welfare. I reckon you must also hsve not en that these same gabblers of bob. up hsve been whispering persis tently In all the dark corners thst General Elsenhower and Benalor Tult are and hsve been Implacable enemies, ready to spring at each other's throats at any and every lavorsble opportunity. Events from day to dny are mak ing It pin In that It ISN'T 80, Gen eral Elsenhower and Senator Tnft doubtless differ In certain of their views. But tney are GREAT AMERICANS. It Is becoming clear lhat such differences of viewpoint ss may exist will not prevent Ihem from WORKING TOOETHER for their country's good. About a century ago, Joslah Gil bert Holland penned these tren chant lines: - God give us MEN! A time like this demands strong minds, great hearts, true fallh and ready hands; Men whom the lust of office does not kill; ' Men whom the spoils of office csn not buy; Men who possess opinions and A will: Men who have honor; men who will not lie; Men who can Bland before a demngngiifi , And clnnin his treacherous flat teries without winking; Tall men, sun-crowned, who live above mo fog In public duty and In private thinking. It is beginning to look like God has heeded Holland's hnna?iloned piaver and Is GIVING us Hint kind fif men. If so, our country's future U SECURE. told Ihn National Association of Mniiulacturcra In New York that "there Is a clear and dcllnlte aol ullon lo the Korean conflict with out unduly Increasing casualties or furthering the risk ot world war, MacArthur Implied then a will Inancs to present his vlewa to Klscnhowor. Elsenhower quickly sent g radio gruin lo MacArthur saying he and his advisers were In the process uf "outlining a future program' almrd at ultimate peuce III Korea He sulci he - wanted MucArthur'a views. This rxchauue of messages ap peared lo be more Uuin the Pros- Itlent-elcot asking for Mac-Arthur' Korean peace plan. It seemed on this ship thst It was a diplomatic mover by Klseuhowrr to ileiil the broach and give Ills administration the benefit o! MncArlhur's long experience In dealing with Far Kivit mutters. MacArthur said: "'I his la the first time thst the slightest olllclsl Interest In my counsel has been evidenced since mv return." This appeared to be a rap by the five-star general al President Truman, who fired him on April 10, lull, as Allied commander In the Far Bust because he was un nlile to give his "wholehearted sup port" lo U, 8. and U. N, polities. The slsp apparently was directed also al those In Trtimnn'a admin istration who have dealt with Par East policy. It wss noted too that MacAr thur'a message said, "My best to you. Ike, as always." Eisenhower's message to Mac Arlhur said: "Have lust received aboard the USeS Helena excerpts of your speech before NAM and am grat llled by your continued Interest III the Korean War which ao vitally streets the United States and our allies.

Those Morse Again Attacks McKay EUGENE tfl Sen. Wayne Morse explained Tuesday why he objected to the appointment of Ore gon Gov. Douglas McKay to a cabinet post in the new adminis tration. McKay, who will become secre tary of the interior in Dwight Ei senhower's cabinet, will allow pri vate power companies too much control of electricity generated by public power dams, Morse said. Morse also contended that Mc Kay probably will permit private power companies to build low head dsms on the Pacific Northwest's streams. ia .i v vK 1 L- AN EARLY morning conference at Basin Motors wet the target of the nine ocloclc cameraman's lent today.
