A Letter From
BILL LANTAFT
Dear Neiehbor.

Dear Neighbor:
/ President Eisenhower's State Cd
the Union message, to most of us
here in Congress, indicated thai
the primary direction OF his Admin.
iStrati0n is to be toward continuity
of Federal policy, rather than to.
ward any drastic break with the
past.
From all of the criticism in re.
cent years directed against New
Deal and Fair Deal Programs, 4
was quite interesting to hear the
leader Of the former opposition
party" now endorse most of those
basic principles. The United Ma
lions is not to be scrapped, rather
we were urged to continue our
firm support OF that organization
and Of It's cause of freedom on
foreign fronts. The President told
us that the United States was ready
TO meet any renewal Of armed az.
gression in Korea. The foreign-aid
program which has been bitterly
CRITICIZED IN recent years, drew
support from the President, as he
urged Congress to continue mill
tary assistance to friendly ma
tons and economic aid on q re.
duced scale.
On the domestic front, the So.
,cial Security program. was moi
only endorsed, but the President
urged that it be expanded. The
Housing program is to be retained
In the health field, the president
urges us to adopt a system Of Fed.

and disqualification insurance poll
cies - a plan something along the
line Of the Federal Housing pro
gram. President Eisenhower urged
admission of Hawaii to the Union
Federal grants for hospitals ant
medical research, and Federal ait
for more school buildings.
In my opinion, the President's
blueprint for the Administration b
follow this year is not a Republican
Program - it's an Eisenhower
Program. It's one that follows thu
middle-of-the-road, and one that
believe most Members Of Congress:
on both sides Of the aisle, viii
generally endorse.

WASHINGTON IN - President
Eisenhower says the Republican
party must be united on broad
political policy and realize--as
abraham Lincoln advised-thaI
the d0gmas Of the quiet past are
inadequate to the stormy present. Z
In Lincoln Day message made
public by the White House last
night, the President appealed for
unity at q time when some COP

the New Deal of the preceding
Democratic administrations.

Senate Republicans are split over
basic constitutional policy as point.

Bricker amendment on treaty.mak.
ing powers.
1T Is essential" Eisenhower
declared, "that the members of q
political party-if the party is to
De effective--join together to reach
common goal. Unless there is
unified support Of broad political
policy. there Is no true political
party"
There must be political unity, he
added, II our party - the Repub.
iican party Is successfully to meet
the responsibilities Of national
leadership with which it has been
charged by our people"
In talking of his administration s
program, he touched obliquely on

WASHINGTON B-Senate lead.

partisan substitute for the Bricker
amendment which they believe viii
break the stalemate in the dispute
and still preserve the Presidents
powers in foreign affairs.
Republican Leader Knowland Of
California said he expected to be
able to announce details Of the
much-talked-over treaty curb sub.
stitute during the day, although
more conferences and more pol.
ishing remained.
But Sen. George (D-Ga), who
introduced a proposal that became
the basis of the bipartisan sub.
stitute, said he wasn't quite 50
confident.
Somebody always has some
other little idea he wants to get
in" George said in an interview
They're still hoping they can get
Bricker to agree to something. But
l don't think any compromise is
possible with John now"
Sen. Bricker (R-Ohio) himself
said yesterday the differences with
the administration on his propos al
grow out fundamentally differ.
ent philosophy of government"
Even if an agreement can be
reached which provides a middle
ground for many senator's, the big
question seemed to be-
Can Senate leaders muster the
two-thirds vote required
for a proposal to change the Con-
stitution?
Or win those taking extreme
positions on both sides Join forces
to prevent enactment of a COM
promise?
Some sponsors Of the original
Brcker amendment already were
conceding privately it could not
pass.
Apparently the substance Of
Georges proposal was acceptable
to the administration, since Know
land and other COP leaders talked
to the president at the White House
yesterday, then returned to the
Capitol to push ahead with their
substitute.
The first section of Georges pro
posal states that any treaty o,
international agreement in con
Iflict with the Constitution shall moi
have any effect. This is substan
tally the same as the first clause
in Bricker's amendment; Essen
hover does not object to It.
The second section would pro
vide that agreements other thai
treaties can become effective as
internal law only by act of Con.

half of the Senate, the view that
the Constitution is superior to
treaties. 1t also would require q
roll-call vote on all treaties.
Knowland. however, said in an
interview he was firm in his deter.
mination to get some sort of con.
stitutional amendment through the
Senate.

some criticism within the party

the governments role in such
fields as housing, social security
and health.
He said the mandate Of the
people In the 1852 election "re-
quires that We share Lineoln's con-
cern for the proper role Of govern

our citizens and added:
1T was in such concern that

treaties, do not require Senate
ratification.
The proposal thus avoids the re
Iquirement of the Bricker amend
ment that treaties themselves car
become internal law only "by leg

the effect Of this would be to re

George said a proposal of Know

One result of these would be to
allow Senate Republicans to claim

of the compromise.

Telephone Rate Increase Will Cost
Bluffton Subscribers, $4,000 A Year

Subscribers of the Bluffton Tele-
phone company will have to dig into
their pockets for an additional $13,2
annually for telephone service from
now on as a result of rate increases
granted by the Public Utilities Com
mission of Ohio last week in Colum-
bus.
The rate boost will affect approx
mately 1,146 subscribers serviced by
the Bluffton exchange, and will mean
increased phone bills amounting to
from so cents per month to 1926 in
the case of 10-party rural business
phones.
For private residential lines the
charges will advance from $3.50 to
$4.75 per month, fve-party lines
from $3.50 to 1915 and 10-party
rural lines from $3.50 to So.
Business phone service on private
lines will advance from Sc per month
to $3.50, two-party business phones
from $3.50 to $3.50, and 10-party
rural from $3.50 to $6.75.
1t has been estimated that the in
creased rates will provide additional
monthly income from the Bluffton
operation of about $1,100. According

Ernest Zuercher
Is New Mayor OF
Village OF RawsOn
Former Mayor Olen Crew
Becomes Fifth Official To
Resign Since January

Ernest Zuercher, elected last
November to his second term on the
Rawson village council, was this
week serving as the new mayor in
that villages oft-changing official
family.
Zuercher, who was president of
council, succeeded former mayor
Olen Crew, who resigned on July 7
due to the pressure of business acti-
vities. He said that he had accepted
a new position with the Ashland Re
fining Co. which would require more
of his time outside the village.
II am sorry that it has become
necessary for me to resign. We had
a good council to work with" the ex-
mayor said.
Mayor Crews resignation was the
fifth one in the villages official fam
lily in the first six months of the new
term. Four councilmen had previous
ly quit their posts and requirements
were named.
The present mayor and Councilman
John Haefele are the only two re-
naming members of the original
legislative group elected last Novem-
Der.
A new president of council to sue
ceed Zuercher has not been elected
nor has another councilman been ap-
pointed in the succession.
Action taken at the most recent
meeting of Council included instruc-
tions for painting the concrete block
buildings in the village park. Gus
todian Miller Fink is to do the work
Mayor Zuercher also has ISSUED
orders that all cars parking on MAR
street are to be headed with the flow
of traffic. Since the parking pro
hibition on one side of Main street
drivers have been stopping on the
opposite side with vehicles heading il
either direction.
