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

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.

In 1875, medical missionary and
