Community Auditorium, A MORSE EXPECTS DEFEAT Senator Wayne Morse, Independent, from Oregon, recently told an audience that he expected to be defeat- ed in 1956 as a result of his bolt from the Republican Par- ty this year. Early in 1952, he was an ardent supporter of Genera] Eisenhower, but became disillusioned as the cam- paign got underway and switched his support to Governor Stevenson — the Democratic candidate. At the same time, he anriounced he was resigning from the Republican Party. After the election andthe Eisenhower victory, Senat- or Morse continued to stick by his theme, announced when he bolted from the G. O. P. In a recent speech, he again asserted his opinion that General Eisenhower started what a questioner called the demogogic appeal in the late cam- paign. j Thus, Senator Morse is now an Seilieinteks. his can- didate defeated but he himself unbowed. He promises a fight in 1956 for reelection even though he says he ex- pects efeat. This is an unusual spectacle on the political scene ahd the publi¢ office-holder who admits*he expects defeat is indeed a rare official in these times. It occurs'to us that Morse’s future, seriously depends not upon himself so ‘much as it does upon the performance of the new Republican Administration. Should the new Administration run into serious trouble, such as a domest- ie economy crisis, or should it involve this country in a larger Far Eastern war than we are now engaged in, Sen- ator Morse may reap some benefit from the Republican difficulty, On the other hand, if the Republican Administration manages to end the war in Korea and prevent an economic depression, with continuing prosperity, Senator Morse may find the going in his bid for reelection very difficult in 1956. Howeverp one must keep in mind that 1956 is a far glimpse into the future. When even the pollsters cannot predict an election several days before the event, it is certainly obvious that no one can predict a political cam- paign four years hence. The voters of the State of Oregon are being treated to an unusual performance, however, even though they will not have an opportunity to express their opinion on Senator Morse’s 1952 political activity for another four years. An Independent has been born in the Senate in a process which is rare in American politics and it puts former Republican Senator Morse squarely on the spot, since he now is a member of neither major party. What has become of the man who used to know ex- actly when the sun would rise? Government Urged To Permit More Private Enterprise In Future Atomic Development By D. HAROLD OLIVER WASHINGTON (®—The National Security Resources Board urged Monday that the Government en- courage greater participation by private enterprise in the develop- ment and use of atomic energy as a source of power. This is one way, the board said in a 100-page report to President Truman, the nation can plan to in- sure against exhaustion of its stra- tegic materials resources. Other steps it recommended aft- er a six months’ study of long- term materials and energy supply problems included: 1. A mineral leasing system as an optional alternative to claim- staking on public lands. The board said many provisions of existing law are “obsolete and anachron- istic.” 2. A law prescribing policy to be follewed by the Department of the Interior in managing offshore oil lands. 3. Laws authorizing United States participation with Canada in con- structing the St. Lawrence Seaway and Power Project, anc providing for other multiple-purpose river de- velopment. 4, Legislation authorizing reduc- tion or elimination of tariffs on raw materials in which this country is substantially deficient. 5. Greater emphasis on mineral resources in technical assistance programs for under - developed areas of the world. The board’s report, made public by the White House, was in re- sponse to the President’s request for advice on what initial steps should be taken to carry out the 78 | recommendations made earlier this year by the President’s Ma- terials Policy Commission headed by William C. Paley, Columbia Broadcasting System board chair- map. The resources board also trans- mitted the generally concurring views of 22 other federal agencies on the commission’s report, and oc- casionally took exception to a of the objections raised. The board urged that 17 of the | 78 recommendations be given pri- ority by the President as what it called key proposals. It noted that | the commission focused attention on the “extraordinarily rapid rate at which we are utilizing our ma-/| terial and energy resources.” But it said the Materials Policy Com- mission is not alarmist and added: | “In the long perspective even those material resources we now classify as exhaustible may prove to be renewable as we learn to convert and to utilize the elements available in the oceans and the atmosphere, as well as in the land | surface of the earth.” | As for atomic energy, the board proposed that interested agencies draw an amendment to the Atomic ' Energy Act specifying conditions under which private interests “could operate commercially to benefit from their atomic power RS GOT aS EXPERT Radio Repairs BY FACTORY MAN All Work Guaranieed LOWS RADIO & APPLIANCE 622 Duval Street DIAL 2-785) PICK UP SERVICE | research, development, and produe- tion.’ The conditions would include such things as patent rights, availability of fissionable materials, and allo- cation of costs between industrial power and weapons. The commission had recommend- ed that the cooperation in effect for several years between the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) and private groups toward developing electric power from atomic energy be continued to a maximum degree consistent with security. This recommendation, the re- sources board told the president, can be interpreted as questioning the apportionment of effort be- tween military and civilian us: ind atomic energy. The board coi ued: “As the present security position of the U. S. is heavily dependent on atomic weapons, the margin of government atomic energy effort available for civilian programs is necessarily small. “Whether or not the Atomic En- ergy Commission could arrange more work on the development of electric-generating atomic plants without lessening security is a question closed to adequate discus- sion because of the necessary sec- recy surrounding pertinent facts.” The board said the interest of in- dustry in participating in atomic Power development is retarded by uncertainties as to how it would be Permitted to use its results. These uncertainties, it added, stem from restrictions in the present law. TRADE PACT SIGNED BY RED CHINA AND CEYLON COLOMBO, Ceylon w—Official sources here said a longterm rubber-for-rice trade pact was signed by Ceylon and Red China in Peiping last week. Business Heads Talk With Ike On Trade Matters By MARVIN L, ARROWSMITH NEW YORK (®#—Two business executives discussed international trade programs with Dwight D. Eisenhower here and one said afterwards “no one in this country has a better grasp of the matter” than the President-elect. wer conferred at his el beadqiarters an ih George A. Sloan of New York, textile industrialist and chairman of the U. S. Council of the Inter- nai mber of Commerce, and farren Lee Pierson, chairman of Trans World Airlines and chairman - elect to succeed Sloan. Sloan told reporters they had discussed international trade prob lems genérally with Eisenhower, and added: “Certainly no one in this country has a better grasp of this matter and more comprehensive knowl- edge of the problem.” Sloan said Eisenhower came to know and understand such prob- lems when he was supreme com- mander of the North Atlantic aes | forces in Western Europe. “He had to understand them to| do his job,” Sloan declared. Others on Eisenhower’s calling list today are four key officials of the new administration and rep- resentatives of ‘The Committee | on the Present Danger.” The sirens of Greek mythology | were supposed to be daughters of the sea god, Delegation Is Barred Outside Prison Gates OSSINING, N. Y. & — Police barred the environs of, Sing Sing ; prison Sunday to a delegation of 716 persons who came here from New York City to demonstrate for clemency for the doomed atom spies, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. The delegation, which came by i train, was Rights Con- gress. The congress is listed by the U. S. attorney general’s office as subversive and Communist. A demonstration with speeches was staged at the railroad station in the rain, The demonstrators were not allowed to march down the street toward the prison where the Rosenbergs are in the death house, and at no time was the crowd closer to the prison than 2,000 feet. A wooden barricade had been set up about 500 feet from the prison gate, and it was manned by police and prison guards. The delegation heard speeches at the station by William L. Patter- son, executive secretary of the Civil Rights Congress; author How- ard Fast, actress Karen Morley, and Mrs. Rosalie McGee, widow of Willie McGee, Negro executed on a rape conviction in Mississippi.
