The Middle West
By Gideon Seymour
Executive Editor
Minnaonolix SfOr end Irihun

MINNEAPOLIS.-The upper Mid
west likes Ike as well as it did the
day he was inaugurated, maybe even
a little better. But uneasiness about
the future gnaws farmers and is
communicating itself to small-town
merchants who are first to suffer
when the farmers feel poor. This
apprehension could be turned swiftly
into anti-Eisenhower sentiment If a
real downward slide in the economy
began.
Farmers and merchants hope
Stoutly, and most of them believe,
that the Softening of farm prices
since last autumn is an aspect of q
postwar adjustment which had to
come and was probably overdue. But
nobody likes to see his income cut,
and while they are convinced that
President Eisenhower meant what
he said in his campaign speech on
agriculture at Kasson, Mimi, they
watch Secretary of Agriculture
Benson sharply.
Some farmers shrug of their
losses on Democratic beef" and say
they're recouping on Republican
hogs" But the implement dealer is
uneasy who sold Is cornpickers or
combines last year and has sold only
three or four in 1858, and the town
banker watches money harden and
wonders uneasily whether this is
going to be repetition of the latter
'20s, when a downturn in farm in
come preceded, coincidentally or
not, a Nationwide depression.
This part of the United States al
ready has chalked up to the credit
of the administration a Korean
cease-f1re which hasn't, at this
writing, actually been achieved. The
Korean war isn't popular and there
is almost no patience with Syngman
Rhee or any feeling that a truce
might be a mistake.

Things Done

To date they have moved this far:
The States have received full title
to the tidelands and their rich oil
reserves, just as the President had
promised. Charles E. Bohlen has
been sent to Moscow as American
Ambassador, over the bitter oppoSi-
ton Of small group of Republicans.
Truman appointeeS to the Joint
Chiefs of Staff have been removed
and new set of military advisers
installed in the Pentagon. An at
tempt has been made to cut the
military budget, principally by lop-
ping SIS billion off the Air Force.
and the administration so far has
won the approval of the House
although a stiff fight still looms in
the Senate. The excess profits tax
has been extended six months and
the reciprocal trade act seems on its
way to extension for another year.
Certain Government housekeep-
ing" jobs have also been successfully
done. The old Federal Security Ad-
ministration has been raised to cab
met rank as the Department of
Health, Education and Welfare, and
Texas astute Oveta Culp Hobby has
become Secretary and the Cabinets
only woman member. The Depart
ments of Defense and Agriculture
have been reorganized. The Gov
ernment payroll has been reduced
from approximately 2.5 million to
"a million, with more reduction
scheduled. Sizeable cuts have been
made in a number of agency appro-
priations.
In foreign policy. Gen. Eisenhower
has worked hard to bring about an
acceptable truce in Korea; has Of
fered food to rebelliouS East Ger
mans; has sent his brother Milton
on a goodwill tour of Latin America
and has arranged to send Vice Pres
ident Nixon on a similar mission to
Asia in the fall.

TurheeIs' New Senator
Seeks No Fight, but
By Dovid Koonc(

A soft-spoken, small-town lawyer
sent to the Senate last week from
North Carolina has found a place
on Senator McCarthy's Government
Operations Committee and says that
while he's not looking for scrap
with the Wisconsin Republican, he
certainly won't back away from one.
Senator Alton Lennon, Democrat,
appointed to the vacancy created
by the death Of Senator Willis
Smith. sounded as if he meant
every word at his first appearance
with Senator McCarthy's full COM
mittee. When the chairman asked
the committee to vote a contempt
citation for reluctant witness be-
fore his investigating subcommittee,
Senator Lennon refused to vote
either way.
Said he, very matter of -factly:
I'll have to wait, of course, to vote
on that until I've read the mans
testimony" Asked about this later,
he said, 1T would be ridiculous for
any one to vote for a contempt ci-
tation without having. read every
word of the testimony"
On the previous day, Senator
Lennon. only few hours in town,
indicated at his first press con-
ference that he would ask to serve
on Senator McCarthy's investiga-
tions subcommittee. now being boy
cotted by the Democratic minority.
But after sizing up the explosive
situation. he was prepared only to
say that he'd like to serve if the
Democrats return to the committee.
"A great job cam be done by that
subcommittee" he said, "and with
out drawing such unnecessary pub
licity."
Another thing, he doesn't want to
see any committee he's on take un-
fair advantage of witnesses. Asked

Perhaps 1t is this lack of a clear cut
image that tends to put his de-
tenders on the defensive and give
his critics ammunition. Congress.
which resents too dominant Presi-
dent and balks at being too force
fully led, nonetheless feels disturbed
and uneasy when a President is not
sufficiently dominant and does not
lead enough. And Americas allies,
confronted by Chief Executive who
at times seems to be administering
his foreign policy in response to
raucous catcalls from the cruder
elements on Capitol Hill, reportedly
are equally troubled and unsure.
Evening star., 1953-07-19

If he would tackle Senator McCar-
thy on this score. he said he would:
I'm not looking for a flght, but
I think I'd be derelict in my duty
if I did not insist on any and every
witness being accorded the full pro-
lection of our Constitution and his
rights under the Bill Of Rights. I
can and will clash with any one If
they differ with my views on the
rights of American citizens. Those
things are just fundamental with
me-"
He regards as preposterous the
idea that Congressional witnesses
should not be given the same rights
as witnesses in a court of law.
The new Senator's BACKGROUND
may give some insight into his
strong feelings regarding his respect
for the rights of witnesses. He's
been judge, prosecuting attorney and
practicing attorney in a dingy county

/. Agencies must now survey
positions occupied by indehnites
to find jobs for which laid-o1
careerists in the same commute
ing Washington Metropolitan
area can qualify. When it does
find such jobs, an agency must
separate the indefinite employees.
Until now, agencies have sepa-
rated indefinite employees as a
result of dumping rights held
by careerists,. but. no complete
list Of jobs filled by temporary
indefinites was every compiled.
Under the new program, such a
list must be prepared by the CSC
so it can check to see If displaced
careerists can fill other jobs in
their agencies held by indefinite
employees.

will be given a one-year priority
over employees of other agencies

Except disabled veterans) for
vacancies they are qualified to
I'LL in all parts of their agency.
This means that displaced
careerists must be hired ahead
of all outsiders, except veterans,
and it also prohibits agencies
from hiring employees from other
departments. csc officials feel
these restrictions will aid dis
placed careerists in finding new
jobs.
3. AS a final insurance, the

ployes in other agenies be fired,
if necessary, to create vacancies
for laid-of career warkers.
This means that, If all else
fails, agencies must fire tempo
rary-indefinite workers to make
room for displaced careerists.
For example, a career worker
who loses his job in agency A
would be certified to replace a
temporary-indef1nite worker in
