TU 4-4752 Entered as second class matter at the post office at Klamath Falls. Ore., on August 20. 1906, under act of Congress. March 8. 1879 SERVICES: ASSOCIATED PRESS UNITED PRESS AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS Serving Southern Oregon And Northern California Subscription Rates CARRIER I MONTH $ I SO 6 MONTHS $ 9.00 I YEAR $18.00 MAIL. 1 MONTH $ 1.50 6 MONTHS 8.50 I YEAR - $15.00 Wrong By BILL JENKINS 1 suppose it is all in the way you look at it but it seems to me that California's Governor P a t Brown sort of put his foot in it with his Tuesday address to the Sacramento Ministerial Society, In the course of that , speech Brown put the boots to Neil McEl roy for resigning his position as secretary of defense to resume pri vate business and laid the lash to the Ford family for blowing in a considerable wad of money on a coming out party for one of the dauchters. Regarding the McElroy business he said "When running a soap mnanv at $175,000 a year or some such sum is regarded, and without rebuke, as more important than remedying the alarming gap in our defenses, I for one tliinK something is wrong with our val ues." What does Mr. Brown hint at? That we should "draft" good men for government office and keep them there regardless of their own personal desires? Is he indicating that he thinks that the government should be run with no thought to the individual but only the over all good? And back this up with law? He made an even more serious blunder, to my way of thinking, when he took the Ford estate to task for tossing a gala party. A party that cost something in the neighborhood of $100,000 or maybe $150,000 as I remember the story but which Governor Brown de scribes as the expenditure " . . . of a quarter of a million dollars on a spectacle." "If this is the frivolous way," says Brown, "in 'which the owners of wealth exercise their custod ianship, ought we not to find reve nue laws that would divert such surpluses to saner uses?' fashion editors from newspapers across the country. The winners had been chosen by ballots mailed to women's page ed itors about two months ago. In acknowledgement of their good taste in selecting millinery best coordinated with tneir cos tunics, the Golden Hat Award win ners were: Mrs. Clare Booth Luce, govern ment. Joan Crawford, business and in dustry. Doris Day, motion pictures. Betsy Palmer, television. Jessica Tandy, stage. Celeste Holm, singer. Mrs. Eleanor Scarlc Whitney, in, tcrnational society. The only winner unable to at. tend in person was Doris Day who is preparing a new film in Holly wood. Edilh Head, chief designer for Paramount Pictures and six-time winner of the Academy Award 'Oscar" for her costuming of out standing films, presented the Mil iincry Institute awards in the form of miniature pearl and gold hat boxes. Fashion and trade magazines are making much over women's hats for spring and the list of adjec tives they employ is long. The con sensus seems to be that they will be higher, wider, bulkier and just more hat. We hope the millinery people have notified the small car manu facturers of this season's styles. Republican candidate must get from 18 to 22 per cent of the Democrats to vote for him, Reichel points out: He doubts that Nixon can do that. "The West must be represent ed" on the Democratic ticket Reichel believes. That's why he thinks Brown has such a good chance to be vice presidential nominee. Sen. Wayne Morse o f Oregon might be a dark horse choice for the spot, he adds. Reichcl's own polls show Steven son with more votes than all other Democratic candidates put to gether. That's true in a poll in Chicago as well as in one in Cali fornia, he adds. "Stevenson upheld the prestige of the party when he had no chance of winning (against a war hero.)" So, despite two defeats, says Reichel, he's likely to b e nominated and elected. posed. But the football talk never got off the ground because Mitchell was feeling nostalgic. You know, boys, he said warmly, "when I think or how hard you battled each other in this very same house and how you finally agreed, like the fine Amer icans you are, to end the longest steel strike in history right in this very same house, well, there s something wonderful about a re union like this. Maybe, for old time's sake, we ought to meet here again next year." "Well, maybe not precisely this house," Nixon said quietly, al most to himself. Bo!iHi;il Wizard Redding Record-Searchlight Want to make some extra money? You might try betting that Adlai Stevenson will be the Democratic nominee for president. Ozzie Reichel, the election-pre dicting wizard from San Francisco, was here over the holidays to visit his son, Bill Reichel of the state department of employment. B e- Now there is one for the books.lfore he left, he made these pre- If Brown means what he is say-l dictions: trig it would mean the end of a Sen. Jack Kennedy will enter the free America, the end of the American's right to spend his mon ey as he saw tit, the end of priv ate enterprise, the end of Democ racy as she Is understood today. Because if such revenue laws were passed it would have to end in a federal board whose mem bers would decide what is frivo- lous and what is not, what is good for the national economy and what is not, what is good for the indi vidual and what is good for the ttate and nation as a whole. Under such a system you would wind up buying what you were told to buy and nothing else. The board could logically say that buying a Cadillac was frivolous when the buses were still running. And no new homes this year because the old one is still waterproof. I'm afraid that such revenue laws would be more dangerous than a snake in the garden. As a matter of idle curiosity I wonder if such a board, were it ever established as American law, would have the nerve to say to the politicians that the expenditure of several millions of dollars on na tional conventions every four years was a "frivolity" that we could well do without. When it comes to sheer foofaraw and whoop-te-doo you'll have to go a long way to beat a national con vention. There's one that makes the Ford party look like a meet ing of the boys in the back room by comparison Nope as for mo I'll shy clear of any more laws that arc going to tell us how to spend our money. I must admit to a twinge of envy when 1 read about the Ford party and thought of a lot of per manent and useful things 1 per sonally could have acquired fur a small fraction of the amount they fpent on giggle waler and trim mings. But I will defend to the point of violence their right to spend thei money any 'way they please. It is a riplit that 1 wunt to re serve for myself. If I earn it and manage to save it up 1 feel that I should bo allowed to spend it in exactly the way I want. Incidentally, if Governor Brown really meant what he said Uien it would seem obvious that gam bling would be conMdi'rcd as "friv- oli.us" to the national good. If his susRested legislation were enacted it would write finis to the career Jf Nevada and we would have only 49 states again. Democratic convention with the most delegates, but he won't get the nomination. A deadlock will develop, and on the fifth ballot Stevenson will be nominated. Gov. Edmund G. "Pat" Brown of California will be nominated for vice president unless some finan cial considerations enter the pic ture. Vice President Richard Nixon will be the Republican nominee. His running mate may be a dark horse, such as John Eisenhower, son of the President, or Cabot Lodge. Ozzie's political forecasts com mand respect, for his "batting av erage" on past elections has been incredibly high. He predicted, for instance, that Mayor George Christopher of San Francisco would be reelected by more than 50,000 votes; Christopher won by 54.000. Ozzie uses a combination of polls and political savvy. He figures that Nelson Rocke feller means it when he says he won't accept a vice presidential nomination, for this reason: He figures Nixon can't win, and the way will be open for Rockefeller to be the presidential candidate four years later. Rockefeller will campaign for Nixon in New York. "Whoever carries California will be the next president." Ozzie de clared that several months ago and he sticks with it. "There's a question whether Nixon can carry California," he says. "As of today he's 400,000 votes behind. Whether Eisenhow er's activity and general prosper ity can overcome this handicap is a moot question." Rockefeller would have a bet ter chance of election than any other Republican, Ozzie believes. His own polls showed Rockefeller gaining on Nixon in recent months. Since there are more Democrats than Republicans, any Hals By FLORENCE JENKINS Seven of the nation's best-hatted women, chosen from arious cate gories of public life, were present ed the Golden Hat Awards by the Millinery Institute of America at a luncheon last Sunday in New York City. The luncheon was attended by mora than 300 guests including Celebration. By SAUL PETT NEW YORK (AP) According to the papers, the old steel strike crowd met again the other night at the home of Richard M. Nixon in Washington. The stories said that the top negotiators of both management and the union gathered at the Nixon place to celebrate the set tlement they had worked out aft er many nights of negotiation. Beyond listing the guests, the stories didn't say what happened at the reunion dinner except that the late bitterness was dissolved m expansive good fellowship. But as to who said what to whom, the reports said nothing. So, I've been trying to imagine that eve ning. . As nearly as I can visualize it, the Nixons served -drinks in the living room to their guests, who included Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell; Roger M. Blough, chairman of the board of U. S. Steel Corp.; R. Conrad Coo per, chief industry negotiator; David J. McDonald, president of the United Sleelworkers Union; and Arthur J. Goldberg, union general counsel. The cocktail hour went off nice ly although the maid once gave McDonald's bourbon to Blough but Blough passed over the mis take lightly. There was another round and then they went in to dinner. Automatically, the boys started to line up - on opposite sides of the table, union on one side, man agement on the other, but Pat Nixon insisted they mingle on both sides, and they did, and that went off fine since all the guests were expert at eating with one hand and keeping the other on their wallets. Several guests remarked on the tastincss of the filet mignon and, glowing, Mrs. Nixon observed, "I'm delighted you like it, gentle men, but isn t it awful the way the price of steak goes up every day? Really, 1 don't know what we'll do about this inflation. There followed a strained pause during which management and labor avoided looking at one an other and the vice president and the secretary of labor studied the lint on their lapels. But the wine glasses were re filled and the expansive good fel lowship expanded even further. The party then adjourned to the living room and the cigars were lit. McDonald, looking intently at the fireplace, said to Conrad Coo per: "You know, Con, it was right here, in front of this fireplace that you accused me of not bar gaining in good faith for the ex act 100th time." Wasn t that right after you said I was deliberately misrepre senting the facts about the price spiral?" Cooper asked, his neck muscles tightening slightly. "What did you fellows think of the bowl games?" Nixon inter- Consumer Confidence By SAM DAWSON AP Business News Analyst NEW YORK (AP) Consumer confidence seems to have grown stronger with the steel pact. And at the same time his feeling that prices will go still higher is mak ing him a better sales prospect. On this along with the urge of business to rebuild its stocks is based the hope that the total econ omy will climb to new highs be fore summer. The consumer's change from worry to confidence is reported by the , University of Michigan survey research center, it was conducting a poll of consumer buying intentions when the steel pact was announced. Its later returns differed quite widely from those taken when the public still feared a new steel walkout at the end of this month. The steel pact removes the threat of shutdowns in other in dustries as a side result. It gives many persons the belief that their incomes will be as good or better this year than last. This confidence makes them ready to take on more instalment debt for the big items they want Belief that prices are more likely to go up than down gives many the urge to buy now rather than wait. But the survey also shows an other fear over light money and its handmaiden, higher interest rates and this could keep many out of the housing market. Plans to buy a new home have dropped sharply since last sum mer, the survey says. Mortgage costs have gone up and builders find it harder to come by financ ing even at the higher rates. Large increases in mortgage debt through September are noted by the Northern Trust Co. of Chi cago in its January bank letter. But it also stresses increased use of automobile credit and vigorous expansion in other consumer goods credit and personal cash loans. The Chicago bank takes comfort in noting that "continued strength in consumer demand at year end was evidenced by the 6 per cent gain over 1958 in Christmas sales of the department stores." For the year as a whole retail sales came to about 216 billion dollars, which was 8 per cent above the 1938 volume. Only part of this gain was accounted for by Higher prices.
