lives in fighting political battles with a rock in his fist Anyhow, we thought the device had been forgotten until, during the Republican convention, we heard orators speak of the Demoeratie party as the "Democrat party." The idea behind this bold new political weapon is that "Demo, crat party" doesnt sound se genteel as "Democratic party." It sounds, the theory is, somehow disreputable, and if orators keep calling it the "Democrat party," then the voters will turn against an organization with so ugly a name. Maybe the system would work, but we doubt it. And we question that a Republican victory, earned by such an approach would be worth much. We think the Democrats can and should be beaten by a calm and rational examination of the issues and the candidates in cases where Republican issues and candidates are superior. A corruption of the name of the party that was Jefferson's is childish as well as being dirty pool.

Her ieeret if paying personal attention to the cooking and preparation of everything served, instead of turning it ever to csterert. She also makes it bar business to see that every guest is having a good time. Typical of the kind of thing the Burkes do was a recent party for junior naval officers. It gave the youngsters and their wives a chance to meet the big boss and went over with a real bang. Mrs.

Burke is now In the pro cess of organizing a Navy wives' club and she turns over their big house, with spacious grounds, to young wives who have do other place to entertain. IF THESE WAS any doubt about Perle Mesta losing her number 1 hostess rating here during the past year, it was ended by her party farce at the Demoeratie convention. As one socialite here puts it "Perle and Harry Truman passed out of the picture together in Chicago," FOBTUNATELT FOE the Russian Ambassador Ceorgi Zarou-biryit has been a very cool summer. If it had been a typical scorcher, he might not have survived. Zaroubin is hardly the gay- dog type, but he managed to plow through more social life than any ambassador in town.

It must have been tough for him, too. He drinks very little, obviously finds it difficult to engage in cocktail party chit-chat, and really doesn't seem to like crowds very much. Only time he seemed to be en joying himself was one evening when he was poking fun at the proceedings of the national conventions to a group. He watched every second of them on TV. AS USUAL, the Indonesian In dependence day celebration was the high spot of the summer's social season, with guests hang ing around the buffet table until three hours after the official 9 o'clock closing.

The last bottle of champagne was poured at 3 a.m. Also as usual, the hit of the evening was the naUve band and exotic native dancing girls. Two last-minute guests were Sujono Djono and Abdulla Bal bed, Indonesian lads hitch-hiking around the world, who just happened to hit Washington in time for the party. When they showed up at the embassy that morning they were barefooted and attired in dusty native garb. That didn't bother Ambassador Mokerto Notowi-digdo, however.

He personally took both lads to the nearest department store and outfitted them with new suits, white" shirts and shoes. It's not that the ambassador would have been ashamed of them if they had come to the party the way they were. He just wanted them to feel more comfortable. PARTY FOOD and drink trends to look for this fall: Caterers keep track of what's eaten and drunk and what's not during a party. And they've discovered that one of the most popular new hors d'oeuvres is pizza.

There's never any left over. On the other hand, they report, the craze might be tapering off. Guests are turning back to gin, It seems. Still more Scotch and champagne drunk at big receptions than anything else. NOBODT AT THE White House would give out a single official word on how the President's four grandchildren, David, Barbara Ann, Susan and to go to school.

The minimum at a state-owned (ana gubsidized) school without greenbacks for big dates and a sports car-is about $1200. It runs to $3000 at some of the private snob schools. Most of these point-with-alarm columnists, being journalism students during their salad days, worked all or part of their way through school. Most journalism students have done this since there was such course. And in the years 1930 through 1941, the majority of all students worked their way through school.

It was an accepted and approved method. The people who are doing the bulk of the nation's work now are from that dish-washing, furnace-stoking group. And the country seems to be getting by just fine. Practically all costs have doubled since 1940. Many costs have tripled.

In fact, we can't think that dad In 1940 was anywhere near as able to send young Ephidelia through school as he is now. TTio ftVi tMnV On Editorly Lovt Ralph Moore, Grants Pass lumberman who long has been a contributor to the Oregon Voter, a Portland publication, gets "the works" in Sunday's edition of the Medford Mall Tribune. Moore had written of an ex perience that duplicates the experience of many another Ore-gonian while traveling in other parts of the nation. Moore bad written that he frequently is queried In other parts of the country as to how long the state of Oregon going to put up with representation in the United State Senate by that windbag, Morse. That was enough to get Moore the "Ruhlism" treatment in the Mail Tribune: "Moore is the Oregon Voter's hatchetman.

He only associates with the country club or cocktail party people outside his state." Moore Is Is speaking for the "club vote," if we are to accent "Ruhlism," as practiced by the Medford gentleman who poses as the representative of skid-road while clipping his coupons. This writer can attest to frequently having been met with the same question when traveling outside the state without having set foot In a single country club or cocktail party.

We hope they do a good job of trampling it into dust, This precedent is that the speakeV of the Oregon house of representatives is chosen by pledge. It works this way: Uach man who wants the job tours the state, wining and dining and smooth-talking the other members of the house.

He tries to get pledges from them that they will vote for him. The vote itself usually is a formality. But Cardwell and Stewart want an "open convention" Whim, Net Treaty Since May, 1848, however, Egypt has declared a maritime blockade of Israel. Despite United Nations efforts to terminate this blockade, it has continued unabated. On April 1950, the Egyptian government decreed: "Article 3: It is always permitted to use force, by opening fire when necessary, on any ship endeavoring to evade the pro cedures of search and thus to force It to halt and be searched." "Article 17: Our ministers are charged, each In his own sphere, with the implementation of the present decree." A number of other measures were taken to prevent goods from reaching Israel, all in violation of the Constantinople convention which is binding upon Egypt This experience cannot be ignor ed by countries which have geared their commerce to the use of the Suez canal.

Egypt might use the Israel experience, if it be condoned, as a precedent for "blacklisting" the ships of western nations to suit some whim of Nasser. Suez Talks seize the canal, however unwise and unnecessary the action may have been (except in service to Nasser's ambition). Under the Suez Canal company's concession, Egypt would have gained the canal in 1968 in any event. No one planned to prevent this from happening. No one In control before the seizure was misusing the canal to Egypt's detriment.

Quite the contrary. The canal company management was systematically preparing for Egypt's management of the waterway, enlisting more and more Egyptian workers in hope they could develop the needed skills in time for their legal assumption of control Nothing Moral Nasser's untimely seizure left those careful plans in jeopardy and exposed canal traffic to serious risk of dangerously ineffective operation. On top of that, of course, it is at the mercy of Nasser's whim. The issue is not an emerging people's legitimate national as pirations. It is Nasser's violation of international morality which has so foolishly and from the world's" viewpoint purposelessly imperiled a vital waterway, India is not "mediating'' when it misrepresent! the issue and in effect endorses his immoral act.

Its plan' actually sanctions Nasser's larceny and suggests simply that i few of the older heads in the world community keep a mild weather eye on how he handles his ill-won gains. of those shares today depends not upon competent management but upon political circumstance. Brtcandaf The fluctuation is probably very great Unilateral seizure of a company, without negotiation or discussion, is brigandage and should be regarded as intolerable no matter who does it or for what reason. According to the originaj agreement, the canal should revert to Egypt in 1968, but Nasser could not wait for an agreement to run its course. He is a man In a hurry and his kind of hurrying can, in time, bring on World War III.

By the Constantinople conven tion of 1888, it was agreed that "The Suet maritime canal shall always be free and open in time of war as in time of peace, to every vessel of commerce or war, without distinction of flag. Con sequently, the high contracting parties agree not in any way to Interfere with the free use of the eanal, in time of war as in time of peace. The canal shall never be subjected to the exercise of the right of Menon Misses Point India Clouds By BRUCE BIOSSAT National Writer India's efforts at London to "mediate" the Suez Canal dispute do not at this distance seem at all constructive. It is one thing to say, as India does, that "international control" is put because Egypt will never accept it. It is quite another to propose such a weak alternative that the West cannot accept that.

Most of Western Europe's life-sustaining oil comes from the Middle East via Suez. Britain and France consequently seek and are to have ironclad assurances that this critical flow will not be interrupted. Any workable plan for Suez must have these assurances as its cornerstone. They are the heart of the matter. Under India's proposal, Egypt would have full control of the International waterway except that it would be advised by a rather vague "association of international user interests In the West's view, and considering Egyptian President Nasser's total unreliability, this is not sufficient protection for what might be ealled Europe's India Misunderstands As so often in its dabbling in major world affairs, India is employing an emphasis in this controversy which, indicates deep misunderstanding of the political realities.

He gives every evidence of aping the Austrian model who first paralyzed the world by his impudence and then brought it to disaster by bis arrogance. The question that has faced the West at the London conference is how long the principal nations can afford to appease Nasser and what his next step will be after the next appeasement The "Arab News Digest," pub lished in New York, justifies the aeizure of the Suei Canal com. 1 t0 Teimburse all stockholder! in the Suez Canal company as soon the canal's assets are turned over to Egypt, the Egyptians have violated no laws or prin ciples of international practice." So far as the commercial na tions of the world are concerned, the question Is not who owns the canal but whether the canal is open to all shipping without po litical restriction by Egypt Discrimination For instance, it can be estab lished from the facta that Egypt has already not only prevented Israeli ships from using the canal but has blacklisted the vessels of ether nations dealing with Israel, even to the extent of withholding supplies of drinking water. King Saud said: "Egypt's action (on the Suez canal) was dictated by Egypt's and the Arabs' Interests. I support every measure made to consolidate the Egyptian economy 'and strengthen Arab Destine." What shall we say when King Saud se7TS hue American Investment in his country, an in- vestment made in good faith and on generous terms? If Nasser can get away with seizing the property of the British and the French, why should not Ibn Saud seize the investment of the Americans when he can find it profitable to do so? The Egyptians could have controlled the Suez Canal company.

Instead, they were profligate in their management and sold their shares to the British. The buy was such a good one that the British prime minister, Benjamin Disraeli, did not wait for parliament to authorize the purchase. He bought those shares on his own, borrowing the money from shares were transferred to the British government. So competent has been the management of the Suez Canal company that shares which have a par value of $80.50 were selling for as high as $260 when Nasser pulled his coup d'etat.

This idea is not too far removed from the present interest in the vice presidency. In effect, the president of the state senate is the vice-governor.

He succeeds if the governor dies or resigns to take another office. And the speaker of the house is the second vice-governor. He becomes governor if both the governor and the senate president are out of the picture. Three of our four most recent governors have gained office by this route. John Hall became governor in 1947 when the governor and senate president were killed in an airplane crash.

Hall had been speaker of the house. Taiil Patterson, president of the senate, became governor in 1052 when Douglas McKay was appointed secretary of interior. Elmo Smith, senate president, moved up State history shows that the heads of the two houses, like the nation's vice-president, stand onlv a heartbeat away from the top job. In fact, on a state level, they are more important, because governors do sometimes get appointed to higher office. Presidents don't.
