By rRANK JENKINS
The newly-completed merger of
Af'L and CIO into one organlza
tion with nearly 18 million mem'
bers 1b worrying: the politicians.
It is especially worrisome to the
Republican politicians, because in
recent years organized labor has
leaned strongly toward the Demo
cratic party.
Reflecting this worry, Senator
Barry Goldwuter of Arizona, who
reads the Republican senate cam'
paign committee, said the other
day that unionn have no right to
endorse a Presidential candidate.
Republican Senator H. Alexan
der Smith of New Jersey says this
morning that while be approves
labor unions keeping their mem
bers politically informed he thinks
It would be a mistake for them
to endorse any congressional can
didates in next year's election.
- On the other side of the fence.
Governor Harrlman of New York,
who is a candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for President but
isn't yet willing to admit It, says
today that MORE not . less
American working men and wom
en are needed to take part in our
political aflairs.
Labor Secretary Mitchell tells
the newly merged union's founding
convention that organized labor has
a duty and a responsibility to deal
in political issues and that it
should speak out loud and clear.
He adds that he expects the new
ltbor feneration to support the la'
Iter policies -that have marked the
Eisenhower administration.
President Elsenhower himself,
addressing by telephone and loud
speaker the new afl-cio yes
terday, urged it to scrupulously
nrotect the minority views of lis
members on social, economic and
political Issues. He said: "You
have a ureat opportunity of mak
ing your meetings the world's mosi,
effective exhibit of democratic
processes. "
He added: .
"You are more than union mem
bers bound together by a com
mon goal of better wages, better
working conditions and protection
of vour security tnrougn collective
bargaining. You are American cit
izens."
T find I can't go along with Sen
ator Goldwaler's statement thai
unions have no right to endorse a
Presidential candidate. Personally,
I think ANY sound, patriotic Amer
ican organization wnetner iBDor,
business, or what have you has
the right to endorse any candi
date in any election SO LONG AS
IT LEAVES ITS MEMBERS
WHOLLY FREE TO VOTE INDI
VIDUALLY AS THEY PLEASE,
WITHOUT. COERCION OP ANY
SORT. - 1
If Senator Goldwater had said
that top union officials have no
riant to levy a uoMruiioutti as
sessment on their members to
raise a huge fund to be used for
the SOLE purpose of promoting
the election of ONE candidate for
President, as opposed to another
It would be different.
That would be COERCION. .
Coercion is bad.
Inevitably, the new labor mer
cer brlnKS Into sharper focus the
question of BIGNESS in our econ
omy. For weeks, a congressional
committee has been Investigating
General Motors. General Motors
is bia. The members of the com
mittee that have been taking part
in the investliratlon have obvious
ly been troubled by this question:
HOW. BIO 15 1UU BIU7
I doubt If that question, can be
answered yet. This is a big coun
try. A big country requires big
industries. Big industrial organiza
tions call more or less naturally
and logically lor big labor organ
izations, r.
If bigness is badness, then big
ness is BAD. But we still lack
conclusive evidence that in a big
country bigness is bad.
I think the new IS million mem
bcr AFL-CIO might well be re
minded of this fundamental fact:
GREAT RESPONSIBILITY goes
with great power.
If that fact is kept clearly fn
mind, I don't think we'll have too
much to worry about.

Dulles Raps
Force Policy
In Goa Area
WASHINGTON (UP) Secretary
of State John Foster Dulles
charged today that Russia has
been trying to get India to use
force in its dispute with Portugal
over the territory of Goa.
Dulles- made the charge at a
news conference at which he de
fended a joint U.S.-Portuguese
statement on Goa which has in
furiated India.
Dulles said he gave very careful
consideration to the statement is
sued last Friday, and that he felt
it was appropriate to express feel
ings on Soviet statements aimed
at fomenting trouble in the Goa
area.
STATUS DISPUTED i
The controversial statement,
which "Dulles issued Jointly with
visiting Portuguese Foreign Min
ister Paulo Cuhna, referred to Goa
as a "Portuguese province."
The phrase infuriated the Indians
because they have insisted that
Goa is not a province but an un
willing Portuguese colony which
should be turned over to India.
Dulles refused to back off the
controversial phrase which was
used in .the U.S.-Portuguese state
ment.. He said that far as he knows
Goa. is a Portuguese nrnvlnr. nn.
Pder Portugal's constitution and has
had that status for about 400 years.
Dulles also told newsmen:
1. Communist China has been
steadily building up airfields in the
Formosa Strait area. But U.S. in
telligence so far has not indicated
that the Red Chinese are making
preparations to attack Nationalist
Chinese holdings in the area.
SEES NO CRISIS
2. The United States hopes both
Israel and her Arab neighbors will
see the benefits to all concerned
in a solution to their dispute. So
far no concrete step toward a solu
tion is in sight, but the possibilities
for agreement exist.
3. It is always possible that
Communist East Germany will cut
barge traffic to Berlin, but the
United' States has no reason to
think this will happen now. He said
the United States will hold Russia
responsible for interruptions in ca
nal traffic under the 1950 agree
ment assuring the West of commu
nications with Berlin.
Diplomats said earlier that Dul
les would have to speak out person
ally to get the United States off
the hook with India on the Goa
controversy.
Blood Need Highlighted

half of the collections is turned
over to the national foundation for
research and aid in areas which
are spending more than there is
in the treasury. ,
"We have been fonunate," Per
kins said, "that our -treasury still
has a little money. : If expenses
keep up tne way tney nave been,
we. too, will have to draw on the
national foundation." '
In 1952 and 1953, the county
chapter spent about 81 1,500, while
its share ot . the collections was
about 85,890, In 1954, the figures
were much closer, with expenses
running about 84,000 and Income
about 83,832.
So far in 1955, the chapter has
spent about $11,400 and - its share
of collections has been about 16,
810. '
FOUR CASES ,'
Almost all of this ' expenditure,
Perkins said, was for four cases.
One of the four county victims
recently returned from a rehabili
tation center In Soattle. On this
case expenses so far have run
more than $10,251, Perkins said.
Thus, Perkins pointed out, if
there was to be an epidemic here,
the local chapter would be hard
pressed for funds, and would have
to turn to the national foundation.
The other major expense of the
national foundation, which takes 60
per cent of the local collections,
is lor research sucn as mat wmcn
led to the development of the Salk
anti-polio vaccine which was in
troduced last year. In 1954, when
the research expense was extra
ordinarily heavy, the national
foundation took two thirds of the
county collections, Perkins added,
FALSE IDEA
Perkins said that many people
are under the false idea that the
polio problem was licked, by the
development : of tne Balk vaccine.
However, he emphasized, there is
much research, yet to do, as the
vaccine is not 100 per oent ef
fective, and money will be needed
for this work. .
The national quota for 1956 has
been set at $46 million but the
March of Dimes, does not set a
local quota, Perkins said. He said
that this quota represents a drop
over past years, but that tills was
because of the increased role be
ing played by state health depart
ments in the actual administration
of the Salk vaccine to school chil
dren. Kroksh will announce the ap
pointment of the Klamath Palls
city chairman and the special
events chairman in the near fu
ture. Detailed plans of the com
ing drive will be announced as
they are developed, Kroksh said.

VilsonSays
No Change
In Spending
OETTYSBURO, Pa. (UP)
President Eisenhower and his top
defense and budget advisers
agreed today on a military spend
ing budget of roughly 34'4 billion
dollars for next year.
Defense Secretary Charles E.
Wilson told newsmen after an hour '
and ft half conference with Mr. El
senhower that there was no majer
change in previously announced
plans to keep military spending at
that level in the fiscal year start
ing next July 1.
"It will be tough," Wilson said.
"We think wo can mako it."
BIO PROBLEM
The big problem which confront
ed the conferees was whether de
fense spending would ba such as
to permit ft. balanced budget and
ft possible election-year tax out.
Besides Mr. Elsenhower and Wil
son, those attending the conference
were Adm; Arthur W, Radford,
chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
stall, Budget Director Rowland R.
Hughes, and Assistant Defense
Secretary W. J. McNeil.
The conferees met in Mr. Elsen
hower's tiny temporary office In j
the Post Office building in down
town Gettysburg.
The administration wants to bal
ance this year's budget and have
prospects of doing the same for
fiscal 1956-57 before asking Con
gress to reduce taxes.
Defense is the dominant Item In
government spending and, as such,
is the key to Mr. Eisenhower's
drive for a balanced budget and ft
tax reduction. The Pentagon's pro
posed spending figure for fiscal
1956-ST is reported to be about 35
billion' dollars.
The military hopes to trim that,
figure some but la none too sure
It can. The Pentagon is trying to
keep spending for the current year
umiiea to S34.ouo.ggo, goo out auth
orities aay it is "going to be
tough" to do so and accomplish
everything "essential."
NO BIO CHANGES '
Wilson is not expected to ask for
any big changes in military pro
grams or in the distribution of
funds between the Army, Air
Force and Navy.
The President's conference with
Wilson and Hughes highlighted his
work - and . resk schedule ior to- -day
He will be busy all week and "
will return to Washington-Saturday
for a monthly physical examlna
tion and conferences with Repub
lican and bipartisan congressional
groups. -
The White House ' announced
Monday that British Prima Minister
Anthony, Eden would come to
Washington Jan. 30 for a discus
sion with Mr. Elsenhower of "mu
tual problems."
Officials said ' the conference
would deal chiefly with Western
strategy for coping with Russia in
the light of the deadlock which oc
curred at the recent Geneva for
eign ministers meeting.
Federal Water
Stand Given
WASHINGTON (UP) Picsiden-
lial Asst. Sherman Adams said
last night the government will be
a. "useful servant" in helping solve
water problems in the nation.
But he told an organization seek
ing Increased federal funds for
watershed Improvement that fed
eral control of water In the nation
ultimately would mean "control of
the whole economy."
Adams spoke at the second an
nual Watershed Congress, a meet
ing sponsored by 25 farm, business
and labor organizations. A com
mittee of the group reported earn-
er it has heard "Increasing criti
cism" of the SO per cent limit on
the federal contribution to water
shed project costs.
Adams said It should be clearly
understood that the government
"can continue to be a. useful
servant, a leavening; and equal
izing Influence among the states,
regions and wjterheds."
But he said government "must
not be left to do the things that
people still can do better for them
selves." Adams said a national water
policy under study by the adminis
tration for nearly two years prob
ably will -be ready for the next
session of Congress.
