Parkway Compromise

It is gratifying to learn that there
has finally been "a meeting Of the minds"
in official circles on eventual construc-
ton of the long-planned parkway along
the route of the old Chesapeake & Ohio
Canal to Cumberland. Public reaction to
the recent decision of the National Park
Service to drop the parkway plan was
extremely adverse. The suggested COM
promise route close to the Potomac River
should satisfy those who have advocated
the Great Falls-to- Cumberland parkway
and, at the same time, allay fears that
the canal and its towpath would be en-
dangered.
The understanding reported to have
been reached at conference among
Federal authorities and Maryland legis-
lators applies specifically to a 58-mile
stretch of the proposed parkway between
Hancock and Cumberland. Under this
agreement, the drive will be built on
the palisades of the river, instead of
along the canal itself. This will make
for scenic route through the Potomac
gorge, while providing access at conven-
lent points to the remains of the canal
and the old towpath. officials indicated
that similar recruiting would permit ex-
tension of the parkway all the way to
Great Falls. Such parkway has been
on the planning charts for many years.
We hope the new agreement will lead to
early steps to bring the attractive park
way program closer to reality.

Yes and No on Mr.. Nixon

It is possible to read the Presidents
ss-conference statements on Mr.. Nixon
either way. Those who would like to see
the Vice President dropped from the
ticket in the forthcoming campaign can
find comfort in some things Mr.. Eisen-
hover said-and didn't say Those who
favor Mr.. Nixon can point with at least
equal confidence to the presidential re-
marks
The President was rather pointed in
what seemed to be his rebuke to Mr..
Nixon for the latter's reference to Chief
Justice Warren as great Republican. 1t
can also be argued that the President, II
he wanted Mr.. Nixon as his running mate
in November, could have plainly indicated
this desire, and thereby put out the fire
that is being built under the Vice PreSi-
dent
On the other side of the ledger are
Mr. Eisenhower's exceedingly cordial ref
erences to Mr.. Nixon. He spoke of his
tremendous admiration" for him, he said
that he is very fond" of him, he mem
toned his respect" for the Vice Presi-
dent, and he summed 1t up by declaring
that Mr. Nixon "has been for me loyal
and dedicated associate, and successful
one" Would the President have put the
case so strongly If he wants to drop Mr..
Nixon by the wayside?
In all probability, the real answer is
that the President has not made up his
mind on this point 1t is most unlikely
that he will wait, as he suggested, until
the convention has nominated him before
expressing himself on the question of a
running mate. This is one Of those defer
entail statements that comes under the
courtesy heading. But it is also improb-
able that the President has reached any
decision on the Nixon question at this
stage OF the game. And even If he had

His Own Decision

The Presidents report to the people
a report in which he unveiled his nina
with the intimacy of man talking TO
his own immediate family-is sometnlns
new in the American experience. There
has been nothing like it before, and we
may not witness anything comparable 10
1t again.
The big question which emerges Is
why-why is he doing this? Why does
this man, brought down by heart attack
five months ago, want to assume the Dur
dens and the hazards Of another term IN
the White House?
One can only admire the candor, the
detachment, with which the President
set forth his reasons. In the last analysis,
the decision was his own. It is supported
by two main considerations. First, he be-
lieves that he can continue indefinitely
to carry out the essential duties OF his
office. Otherwise, he would "never have
made" the decision to run again. Second,
he is motivated by sense OF duty i
have diligently sought the path of per-
sonal responsibility, of duty to the i'm
mense body of citizens who have sup
ported me and this administration :.
The work that set out four years ago
to do has not yet reached the state OF
development and fruition that I then
hoped could be accomplished within the
period of single term in this ONCE.
Is this to be taken at face value? Is
the President moved solely by sense OF
duty. a consciousness of vital work re-

lions those of an ambitious man, man
who relishes the heady wine OF high Of
flee and whose real motivation is rooted
In some personal or partisan consider
alton?
The best answer to this, perhaps, may
be found in little exchange at yester-
days press conference. A reporter asked
whether the President expected his health
to be an issue in the campaign. Mr..
Eisenhower replied that he hadn't given
1t any thought, but that, for his own part,
he was going to try to be just as truthful
as he possibly could be. Then he added:
"And I believe this: think even people
who would classify themselves probably
as my political enemies do believe I am
honest-they may call me stupid-but I
think they think am honest"
The American people will think so,
too They will not doubt that the Presi-
dent has been honest and candid with
them. They will feel that they have been
truthfully informed of the state of his
health, of the limitations under which
he would serve second term, and of the
reasons for his decision to seek it. It Is
good that this is so. For the question
before the people is one Of highest i'm
portance They will need all the infor-
nation they can get as they weigh the
factors and balance the considerations,
pro and con. In this way, and only IN
this way, can they make an intelligent
decision of their own when they go to the
polls in November.

make a flying machine" and
spent many happy hours.
If the porch was covered
with vines, so much the better.
A red honeysuckle was one
Of childhood's favorites.
No doubt many a young man
made up his mind. right then
and there. if he ever had a
home of his own, it would
have a vine-covered porch, and
the vine would be the red
honeysuckle.
~ y
So what happened?
When he grew up. and got
a home Of his own at last. 1t
had no front porch.
The front porch had gone
out of style.
Probably it didn't have any
back porch, either.
Maybe 1t was just as well
that he had no place to put q
vine, for all vines are ire
mendous growers, and are sell
dom pruned, for one reason or
another.
So think of vines, If you will,
but be cautious.
A good vine loves to run
rampant Chat is the standard
phrase) all over a house, a
tree, a fence, or even a yard.
If it cannot grow any other
way, it will trail along the
ground, because growth is at
the bottom of its system.
Hail cannot stop it, nor rain.
nor any other matter. A vine
wants to grow, and does, fur
nishing us with an eternal
example which we do well to
heed.
Once planted, vine is there
for keeps. So think" as the
sign says, think twice, before
planting one. Wait until you
see the white Of its eye, and
then go ahead. Gridley, or
something.

President Eisenhower's deci-
sion to run for a second term
has been received with salts
faction and gratitude by mil
lions Of his fellow countrymen
who rejoice also because the
President feels well enough to
serve another five years. He
has again elected to answer a
call Of service-as many pre-
dicted he would.
Neither the President nor
the Republican leaders are
likely to fall into the error Of
overconfldence in the result Of
the November election. They
understand that the Demo-
cratic opposition will do its
utmost to defeat Eisenhower.
The Republicans, however. will
have at the head Of their
ticket their strongest candi-
date, popular with millions Of
people irrespective of party.
He is recognized as a leader
who has demonstrated great
ability, a leader who has the
confidence Of the free world
as well as Of the American
people. It is unthinkable, how
ever, that this will cause any
easing of in the actual cam
paign for the election.
In Race to Stay
The President has made it
clear-and definite-he is in
this race to stay. It would take
a real breakdown in his health
=. another heart attack = to
cause a withdrawal. Such a
contingency the President has
put behind him in his think
ing. He has taken the country
into his confidence completely
and frankly regarding his
health, and he has reached his
own conclusion he can stay
the course. This has been boil
stored by the reports Of his
physicians.
The President understands
well that his opposition will
make the issue of health a
point of attack. Apparently he
knows. also, that the Demo-
Gratis will seek to capitalize on
the unrest among American
farmers, due to the drop in
farm prices--while costs to the
farmer remain high. For on
the very day he announced at
his press conference he had
decided to run, he strongly
urged speedy action" on the
bill to aid the farmers which
he and Secretary Of Agricul-
ture Benson have sent to Con-
gress.
The measure is needed now
not sometime later. The
Democrats in Congress, seek
ing the farm vote, understand
they cannot afford, even If
they desired. to stall this legis-
lation. To do so would be to
destroy their hopes for victory
in the great agricultural States.
