pV OGDEN UTAH SATURDAY EVENINGJANUARY 11 1958 PEARSON TH SAY Ike In Buoyant Spirits Meeting Solans Returning To Congress Cities 'Turn To Washington For Help The struggle by cities to gain more favorable treatment from state governments is going the way President Eisenhower predicted in his address recently at the National Governors' Conference Challenging the governors to pay more attention to the needs of the country's growing ciiies the President declared that unless they were willing to do so more and more municipal delegations would descend Philadelphia recently hired a public relations firm to represent its interests in Washington While the big cities pay 65 per cent of the revenues collected by the federal government the resolution pointed out they are severely short-changed in state-administered federal-aid programs Similar charges are being made about WASHINGTON Since President Eisenhower's health got shaky more than two years ago he has dispensed with handshaking at the regular Tuesday meetings with the GOP legislators usually confining himself to a formal "good morning gentlemen" But as if to emphasize that he was feeling his old self again Ike gave a special greeting to each Republican leader as Congress reconvened He waved his arm exclaimed cheerily "well were back again" then went around the table shaking hands-with each caller beginning with GOP Rep Leo Allen of Illinois Eisenhower remained in good spirits all during the meeting it raised some hackles on Mc-Namara's neck No 1 He figured there were other problems facing the Democrats than being briefed on Johnson's Preparedness Committee among them more than 100 000 men out of work in Michigan No 2 He recalled that Johnson had chairmanned the Unpreparedness Committee for two years without doing anything about missiles and that it was Symington of Mis-souri and Jackson of Washington who had been the senators to warn the nation long ago regarding our missile lag "RARE CONFERENCE" So the blunt-spoken senator from Michigan who started life as a pipe-fitter's apprentice in Quincy Mass wrote a letter to Lyndon: "The current searching locks at our preparedness progress or the lack of it certainly are imnnrt upon Congress and the White House for the spending of state funds Cities supply federal handouts In effect said Mr Eisen- the bulk of the revenues yet find them-hower if you want to stop pressures for selves short-changed in schools and other more centralization of government in Wash- state-financed programs ington accept your own responsibilities Meeting in San Francisco the powerful American Municipal Assn has proposed that big cities get their federal aid direct from the government bypassing "rurally He said he had been reading a lot of "nonsense" about the United States lagging far behind Russia added that he wasn't "wor State governments well might remember the Eisenhower warning They are killing the proverbial goose as the cities are forced to go begging to Washington And while dwelling on the subject of states' rights they might also remember states' 4J 1 dominated state legislatures" The resolu At- tion was written by Philadelphia's Mayor responsibilities and live up to them Richardson Dilworth It is significant that lanta Constitution" ried about such criticism It was politically inspired he said or came from sources which didn't know the facts "We are in excellent shape in missiles and all other phases of military science to meet any emergencies that may arise" he insisted NO WORRY The President also said that be wasn't worried about the slump in business and unemployment and ignored the warning of the Chamber of Commerce that business conditions will get "much worse" this year "Business was off during November and December" he said TIME TO USE THE SPURS HARD SKETCHES By BEN BURROUGHS CULLING THE CITY COUNCIL ant" he said "Without minimizing the importance however I am very disappointed that the 'briefing" is the only item listed on the agenda of an extremely rare conference of Democratic senators" This was a direct dig at Johnson's failure to call a Democratic caucus for a whole year Then referring to Johnson's habit of deciding policy by huddling with a handful of cronies McNamara continued: "Certainly there are other major issues of concern to the country I am not naive enough to assume that the Democratic senators can reach unanimity on every program or policy but this should not rule out efforts to form a Democratic legislative program arrived at by a majority of us and not by just a handful" Johnson promptly phoned McNamara in Detroit assured him other problems such as unemployment and inflation would be up for discussion at the caucus Johnson went further and put them on the agenda However they were never discussed at this week's closed-door meeting It will be interesting to see if Johnson calls another meeting to discuss them 5 Ml tUmm Or Wwja EBB I A JE I in a at mn 1 ary -if-ga "saw MB

assure me that there is bound to be a seasonal pickup in the spring" He cited the fact that manufactured inventories are low in many industries and will have to be replaced also that the government's roadbuilding program will spur business activity Ike's optimism waned a bit when Senate GOP leader William Knowland and House Leader Joe Martin predicted that the proposed 74-billion-dollar balanced budget would have tough sledding in Congress "The Democrats are in the majority and if they insist on spending more than you have asked for 1 shadows on the snow were suffused with that rosy light and softened and chilled For this is no warm glow as the rose light from the hearth fire is warm this light is cold cold as the sky itself And it lingers only a little while then fades into dusk the brittle echoic dusk of winter As dusk closes in on a cold January night the sky often takes on that icy green tinge almost apple green close to the horizon When that comes build up the fire and close tight the doors for the mercury will be low But even that icy warning light comes later day by day how And each sunset marks another winter day ticked off another day toward spring New York Times Meals Eaten Out Meals bought away from home are expected to reach $134 billion in 1965 an increase of 60 per cent the greatest increase for any category Purchased meals are 116 per cent of all spending for food but the proportion rises sharply as income increases Families with incomes under $4000 use about 68 per cent of their food dollar for purchased meals but the $10000-and-over income family uses about 184 per cent About half of all families eat out one or more meals a week Spending for meals away from home rises with urbanization of the family but decreases as family size increases This category includes restaurants meals meals bought at work or school or while Running a city is serious business but it needs the lubrication of an occasional laugh So hats off today to City Manager Allison who this morning was enjoying a laugh at his own expense Seems that brusque Pete Logan a superb rodeo announcer whose range extends all the wav to Madison Square Garden had offended more than a couple of it should be safe to observe but that wasn't the case the past week It was admitted in public meeting It became evident when City Council mulled problems concerning the taverns beer sales lighting bar arrangements in "MANKIND AND WEATHER" Whenever skies are overcast and raindrops tumble down for the most part mankind seems to wear a sullen frown but when the sun is shining bright 'smiles are not hard to find the golden rays from heaven give special peace of mind it is a most amazing thing how weather sets the mood creating sighs then suddenly a happy interlude this strange phenomenon is one mankind cannot explain but nonetheless we're subject to the sunshine and the rain perhaps it is a godly plan or just a trick of chance for we know well that most all things depend on circumstance so it is and I am certain weather is and will always be a topic of discussion and an unsolved mystery HAL BOYLE New Medium cale-taverns and so forth peopie wun nis quicK

inaugurated by Superior Judge Louis Burke which refers uncontested divorce suits involving couples with children 14 or younger to the court of Judge Roger Alton Pfaff is socially good Judge Pfaff also presides over the Conciliation Court and in the cases that will be heard before him the facilities of that court will be available for the litigants in fact the litigants will be urged to take advantage of them The Conciliation Court staffed largely by family counselors has in the last four years brought about reconciliation of 43 of the couples who had come bent on divorce Divorce is especially regrettable when children are involved juvenile delinquency sometimes stems from broken homes Parties to a divorce frequently do not understand the full consequences of their action The Conciliation Court counselors can point them out as they try to compose the differences of husband and wife Many divorce actions are instituted in haste and repented for a lifetime Where children are concerned nothing ought to be left undone to save marriages and homes Los Angeles Times As Days Lengthen Daylight has begun to linger longer into the late afternoon That is the way the days first lengthen with the faint remote hint of March and April ahead Each day's span between sunrise and sunset is a trifle longer and by now those trifles have added up to almost fifteen minutes The gain thus far however is all in the evening the sun still rises at its latest hour in the year and will not begin to gain on itself until the end of this week But the time of sunset has been a trace later every day for almost a month That is one reason for that evening light which is often so spectacular in January It slants over the western hills and seems to bathe the whole world in a glow as different from summer dusk as winter itself is different This seems to be a redder light almost rosy at times especially on a snowless landscape On a snowy scene it takes lavender tones as though the
