THE PLAIN SPEAKER, HAZLETON, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 5, 1957 PAGES George Sokolnky 'N' He Said His Father Can Lick You" The Wisconsin Upset Having A Very Difficult Time The bill to "Save the FBI Files" while it does not affect the President, is nevertheless a reflection on President Eisenhower's appointments to the United States Supreme Court. The final bill completely overturned the Jencks Decision written by Justice Brennan, an Eisenhower appointee, and it was. passed in the Senate by a vote of 74-2 and in the House by a vole of 315-0. Such a reversal of a Supreme Court decision by the Congress has rarely, if ever, been witnessed. Public Opinion Outraged In this matter, it is to be noted that the President took no position and constitutionally he had none to take.

Nevertheless, the court, as now constituted has been "liberalized" by Eisenhower appointees and has unquestionably outraged public opinion or the overturn of the Jencks Decision would not have been of such dimensions. Congress must reflect public opinion or many members will be defeated in the next elec-j tion. Paralleling this vote is the elec-j tion of Joe McCarthy's successor in Wisconsin. President Eisenhower and the Republican organization had endorsed Walter Kohler, thrice elected Governor of ler is an all-out Eisenhower man. These conservatives may have stayed away from the polls in substantial numbers.

Most experts question the idea they voted for Proxmire in any volume, since party cross-overs generally are viewed as more fancy than fact. Though early, snap analysis hardly can tell the full story, the decisiveness of Proxmire's triumph suggests wide dissatisfaction with the GOP in Wisconsin. The GOP high command will now be busy weighing whether there is truth in the Democratic contention that this reflects farmer discontent over inadequate prices and city voter un-happiness over inflation and "tight money." Clearly it would be risky at this stage to read a national trend into what has happened in a single midwestern state in a special off-year election. Such a trend may indeed exist, but the evidence for it in Wisconsin must necessarily be sharply limited. Democrats nevertheless are bound to take strong encouragement for 1958 and 1960 from this outcome.

And Republicans who dream of recapturing Congress next year and holding the White House in 1960 will surely recast their thinking in the light of this event. It was too genuine a shock to be shrugged off, and no alert GOP leader seems tempted to dismiss it. Nor can the experts who saw easy victory for Kohler forget it. The Wisconsin battle for the late Joseph R. McCarthy's seat offered one more proof how increasingly difficult it is becoming to forecast elections.

President Eisenhower is having a very difficult time in his second term as political leader, which is very different from his ponception of the role of President. His difficulty arises from several causes: 1. He does not seem to realize that ours is a Congressional not a Parliamentary system of government and that the President is not a Prime Minister; 2. He has undoubtedly been badly served by his staff and advisers, who failed to keep him informed as to the probabilities of Congressional action and as to the shifts in public opinion to which Congress responds rapidly. Probably his greatest disappointment arises from the fact that it is impossible to form a coalition government in this country, and that while the Democrats have beeh more gentle with him than the Republicans were with Harry Truman, nevertheless, they are Democrats and are looking after themselves.

He also must recognize that the majority of his own party docs not accept the modern Johnny-come- latelies. A Case In Point The Civil Rights Bill is a case in point. The bill, as passed, satisfies nobody. For some reason, not readily understood, President Eisenhower's advisers believed that he could get from Congress a bill which would totally change the political complexion of the South. Such a bill could not pass.

Instead there is a watered-down measure, difficult to enforce, which gives no one any satisfaction. The best that can be said about it is that it is better than nothing at all so far as those who wanted such a bill are concerned.

The right answer is "The Star Spangled Banner." "It is played at least 225,000 times a month on radio and TV stations alone," said Israel Diamond, a slender, bald, 40-year-old accountant who is one of Amer ica's leading song statisticians. Diamond is the logging director of Broadcast Music, Inc. His job is to find out how often each of the 150,000 plus BMI songs are played so that the composers or publishers who own the copyright can be paid. This task, little understood by the public, is vitally important to the and moon" rhymers, large chunk of whose income comes from the nation's radio and TV stations.

The work falls into two parts. A composer gets three cents from each station every time his tune is played over a TV or radio network. This is easy to figure out as the networks keep a complete list of every tune played. Thus if you've written a tune entitled "It's Hard to Stay Straight When you Love a Wobbly-Hearted Girl," and a 150-station Peter Edson rying out of that order. voulrl if he had used the troops to pre vent any interference with the Ne pro children who wanted to en to the school.

Instead, he used the troops to bar the children who were neither disturbing the peace nor creating disorder. Eisenhower is staying in the background so far, letting the judge and the Justice Department headed by Atty. Gen. Brownell, do the acting for the government. But the ultimate responsibility for whatever is done rests on Eisenhower.

Brownell has ordered the FBI to investigate the Little Rock sit uation and report to Judge Dav- ies. That could pave the way for i contempt of court action against, i federal judge every Southern governor could feel free to do the same. This would make a farce of the Supreme Court's ban on public school segregation. It would mean a breakdown of the federal gov- ernmenis power 10 carry out tne law. For almost 40 months since the! court's ruling, Eisenhower has treated Southern resistance to in tegration with patience and platitudes.

It seemed likely he could go on doing that as he prepared this week for a long vacation. Some dusturbances might occur at newly integrated schools opening this week. But that had happened before and there was no crisis. There appeared no reason -rr-- to expect a crisis now. Then Fau bus supplied it Wrhat he did he did twice.

Before a Little Rock high school opened this week federal Judge Ronald Davies had ordered it integrated. But when it opened Faubus had National Guardsmen there to keep Negroes out. The school board, willing to en- roll the Negroes but unable to do so because of the troops, asked Judge Davies what to do next, Again he ordered the school inte By BRUCE BIOSSAT Democrat William Proxmire's resounding upset victory in the Wisconsin U. S. Senate race has given national Republican leaders the toughest morsel they've had to chew on since President Eisenhower swept back into office last fall.

They may conclude that party disunity, special to Wisconsin, was part of the story. The defeated GOP nominee, Walter Kohler, popular ex-governor, was bitterly opposed in the July primary by the state's powerful conservative Republicans. Koh- One Way To Catch Them In the nature of things getting conclusive evidence against racketeers, extortionists and assorted financial finaglers is often a tough job. The biggest problem is to find witnesses willing to testify against the alleged offenders. Violence or the threat of violence serves to silence most.

This possibly helps to explain why, when all else seems to tail, the U. S. Internal Revenue Service frequently turns out to be the agency which nails the elusive offenders. All citizens, whatever their source of income, must file income tax returns. And Internal Revenue has a devastating way of zeroing-in on those who try to conceal income from the government.

Finaglers often attempt it, usually to their sorrow. Thus the bureau has for the second time in recent months lowered the tax books on Dave retiring Teamsters union president charged by a Senate committee with many financial irregularities. A federal grand jury not long back indicted Beck for allegedly evading $56,000 in taxes due for 1950. New indictments add to the pile, this latest 'sum said to be due for the years 1951 through 1953. Though they may grumble each April 15, ordinary taxpayers may be happy to know that Internal Revenue is around to bird-dog certain citizens who seem to be above everything but the tax laws.

The rumor states Uzmann has been offered a permanent berth with the Mountaineers and in the event that he should be given his unconditional release by Mike McNally, he would probably be signed up to succeed Jakie Pitler as leader of the local nine.

He has learned some odd lore about songs. Such as that the BMI files list some 450 sones that BMI files list some 450 songs that start "I love," but only 36 that begin "I hate." One of the latter, probably written by a damyan-kee, is, "I Hate You, Mississippi." "Although 'love is by far the word used most often in songs," remarked Lecomte, "religious interest also is showing up more and more in song titles.

The cost of this program in additional gasoline and auto supply taxes on the average motorist is estimated at about $8 a year. This considered cheaper than what motorists' added costs would be for riding on toll roads.

Further recognition that toll roads do not provide the answer on U. S. highway travel was given when Bureau of Public Roads recently announced that 2,100 of the 2,500 miles of existing toll roads would be made a part of the interstate network. There was no protest. In fact, the 15 states involved were all for it.

Of course, it was a disappoint-ment to President Eisenhower. It lost his party the possibility of control of the Senate for another year; but worse than that, it may put ideas into the heads of McCarthyites in other parts of th country.

It undoubtedly will. The size of the McCarthy following has never been clearly analyzed but its hard core appears to be growing larger since he died. Blow To Republicanism Both the defeat of the Jenckes Decision and the Wisconsin election give to Modern Republicanism a severe blow. Professional politicians will look at it with eyes to the 1958 and 1900 elections. The professional Republican politician is particularly fearful about I960 because he cannot see where the votes will come from to elect either Knowland or Nixon, one of whom is likely to be the Republican candidate.

While he realizes that the Democrats do not have a first-rate candidate to put forward, he also recognizes that the shifts of population during the past 40 years have made the Democratic Party the hardly him to face the judge if he doesn't want to. 11 refused to go, What would tnen?

But wait, Communist confession often precedes the concentration camp.

Dictator Mao is indirectly responsible for the confusion attending the confessions, and that'i why his own future is now as speculative as shares on the Shanghai opium market. Fifteen months ago, fearing a violent outburst such as erupted in Budapest, Mao implied the toughest phase of dictatorship was over. Suddenly mellow, he invited criticism. "Let 100 flowers bloom," he said. "Let all schools of thought contend." This sudden unmuzzling brought a tidal wave of beefs.

Thought Mao Goofed Communist job holders, fat and happy at the public trough, thought Mao had goofed. They were running "the perfect state," not a complaint department. The party newspapers said that such open hooting would "negate the party's dictatorship and weaken the Communist system." Under such pressure Mao flip-flopped and laid down rules for criticism interpreted in cynical Hong Kong as "you can tell me what's wrong as long as you say I wonderful."

The difficulty lies in checking the country's 3,000 radio stations when they play music on nonnet-work or local programs. A tune played once on a local program nets the composer two cents. Since it would be uneconomic to check them all, each month a scientific sampling is made of 100 stations. Each lists all tunes it played in that period. Diamond and a staff of 50 logging editors then go over the lists and pick out the BMI tunes.

Coded cards for the tunes are then put into data machines which electronically add and multiply the figures from the scientific sample to reckon the final payment. One of the staff's small chores was to figure out a code name for the song, "You Two-Timed Me Once too Often." They finally came up with this result: "U-2-X-Me-l-X-2-Often." The log editors develop fabulous memories for song titles. "I guess I can remember 000 to 40,000 songs offhand," said Ed Lecomte, 52, a former Broadway actor who has been a tune logger for eight years. "But no one in a lifetime could learn them all. There are millions of songs.

no stop lights and there is more speed. But every one of these advantages has to be paid for. The New York-Chicago toll-road charge via the New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana turnpikes is nearly $11. Across New York it is $6.10. Across Massachusetts, $2.45.

Kansas, $3.80. Bureau of Public Roads experts cite these factors as reasons why increases of one or two cents a gallon in state and federal taxes to pay for new free highways is cheaper than driving on toll roads would be. Yet car owners scream protests when gas taxes are raised to pay for new highway construction, though they pay toll-road charges without protest. The 2,500 miles of U. S.

toll roads that have been built are given credit, however, for showing the public the advantages of a super- highway system. Without the toll road examples, it would probably have been difficult to get Congress to pass the 1956 Highway Act.

The reason is a simple problem in arithmetic which few car owners have taken the trouble to figure.

The average charge for driving on the 2,500 miles of U. S. toll roads now in operation is a cent and a half a mile. If the average car owner gets 15 miles to the gallon out of the family bus, this means that he is paying the equivalent of an addi tional gasoline tax of 22.5 cents a gallon (15 miles at 1.5 cents a mile) just to drive on a toll road. When it is figured further that the average price of super-grade gasolines is now around 42.5 cents a gallon, this 22.5 cents a gallon of added costs brings the gasoline price equivalent to 55 cents a gal Ion for toll-road driving.

BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Reporter TORONTO UP) Our air holds only a 10-day supply of water to keep all humans, plants and ani mals living on earth If the air suddenly dried out as you might wish on a muggy, humid day earthly life would soon thirst to death. There's really very little water in the total air surrounding the earth. Scientists estimate that wa ter constitutes only MOO.OOOth of 1 per cent of the earth's atmosphere. These are some of the findings so far from scientists seeking to solve puzzles of the earth's water balance. That means the exchange of water between the seas, air and clouds, the soil, and all that happens in between.

An understanding of the exact mechanisms of water exchange and balance could give very practical results, Dr. H. Mosby, oceanographer of Bergen, Norway today told the meeting here of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics. The knowledge could lead to better methods of forecasting or controlling weather. It could pre- vent some water-troubled areas from becoming deserts one day.

West Virginia, Maine and northeast Pennsylvania toll roads have not been profitable enough to pay interest on their bonds. As a matter of fact, some highway experts believe that all the profitable toll-road routes have now been built or are under construction. Early next year Bureau of Public Roads must report to Congress on pros and cons on having the U.

S. government take over the three billion dollars' worth of outstanding toll-road bonds, and pay off the bondholders. The roads would continue to be operated as toll roads till the bonds matured, so there would be no added costs to the government. In effect, the U.S. would simply be buying constructed mileage.
