Any Leader 'Above Politics'?
In the past decade or so American voters appear to
have created for themselves a fresh dilemma
They want men in politics who 120 00V-01111 IS
above the old standard pattorn They want them bright
and untarnished At the same time they want them tough
and practical enough to be LW to find their way around
In the grubby arena of domestic and world political in-
tarictu The combination of thee trans isn't easy to coma by
Experience has taught us that some men who appeal be-
gauss they are 'above polltics stay so far above it that
they limit their usefulnaes as leaders and legislators
There is ultimately no escape from the hard bargain-
ing of politics He who tries to stand aloof will simply
discover that someone else moves in to do what be should
be doing And snore of ton than not the results 'will be
Ise than what the people wished and expected
This is especially true of the presidency One does
not have to be a constitutional expert to know that the
President of the United States does not Diary legal author-
ity over the Congress His branch of government and the
legislative are Independent as is the Judiciary
Yet over the years the American people have come
to look more and more to the Prealdent for firm leader-
ship for guidance of a sound legislative program for a
- setting of the tone and pace of government
Obviously in the absence of any shred of authority
over Congrees his only influence is political His office
automatically possesses immense political power Few
lawmakers can ignore it if he casts it into the balance
-
A president who wastes this influence who lets It lie
dormant Or turns his -back upon IL Is ebytinialting the
weight of his office He cannot be Just a statesman He
must also be a politician
It may seem Ironic to demand of a man ch000n as
"above politics" that he become a politician But there
- Is no help for it
- Americans choosing a president In 1960 will need
the very keenest Irtil to SOO in those candidates before them
the man or men with the remarkable blind of freshness
Imagination and tough-mindednese they want
They have lost patience with the old mold Ynt find
It hard to fashion a new one to fit the advancing times

Grouch° Marx King Leer of TV
Says Restaurants Like Coal Mines
HOLLYWOOD (UPI) —Groucbo Marx the King Leer of TV has
decided who will portray him if Hollywood makes his newlyvub-
listted autobiography "Grouch° andMe" into a movie
ly"Tallulaii Bankbead for the leer years and Beck Hudsou
later ea" be said
Grouch° 64 made this disclosure in his booth at his favorite
eating emporium Romanoirs as he muttered about the lack of
lighting in American restaurants
"Americas restaurants are lite eoal mines" be said "Wens-
en Like that It hides their imperfections"
Grouch° said he was deeply moved because the distinguished
writer E B White sent him a note complimenting him on his book
'What really moved me" be said "is that White said he
watches my TV show NBC's 'You Bet Your Life' every week
How de yen like that? Ho watches a lousy TV show—and a
crooked ene to boot Grouch° warmed to the subject of the recent scandals in TV
gull programs
"1 don't nsi2d if the shows are fixed" he said "bat they
ought to say at Uta beginning: Mal show is fixed Watch at your
own "
Asked bow his own program--4 quiz show—survived for 11
years he explained: 'It's honest we have new east- each week
and rm the wittiest guy this side of Rock Hudson"
At this point Mike Romanoff the restaurant's sterner apr-oached
"Here eemes that fake Russia prince" muttered
Greucbe -
"You wouldn't say that to his face" said a waiter 'Why do
you think I have this dark table?" barked Grouch°
"Can 1 get you anything?" the waiter asked "Yeah do you
have any poison said Grouch Snapping op a menu he add-
ed: "What's this about 'draws butter" Whe draws your butter?
De you have a special artist to draw butter?
"And don't give me any of those foreign language dishes
They're just an excuse to raise the price of hamburger a dollar"
"But we have Russian beef" pleaded the waiter 'Why don't
you go to Disneyland?" said Greucho
Turning to a friend be observed: 'You know it'd be funny
if It 'Came out now that the White Sox threw the series again" r
Small Communities Can Attract
Industry by Keeping Eyes Open
WASHINGTON (UPI) —The small community in the
hinteriandsi are removed from the big city which tares away Its
young people with promises ef good jobs can attract ha share
el industry—but it has to knew whit to ge after
Some industries won't even consider a town 'with a population Of
less than 1500 for many good reasons But there are other Indus-
tries which are on-the constant lookout for the little town as a poe-
sible site for a plant -
For a long time the little lawn had to operate en a kit-andmissi
theory is going after industry in competition with the
nielitan centers and their high-powered premotleas for
new plants
Now the office of Area Development in the Commerce Depart-
ment has come up with a detailed Ilat of 444 types of industries
showing fust which ones like the metropolitan centers and whick
would rather settle in a smaller place
"There's a sense for a amen town to leek for az lash's-
ment-making plant for instance" Dv Seger Pryer chief of the
resources Analysis Division said They should leek for indus-
tries closely related Is the supply in the area Why spin your
wheels looking for something if you don't have a chat
getting it"
The list provides a guide for any city including 1800 commu—
alties which actively sponsors industrial development And general-
ly speaking the prospects are good In fact only one type of in-
dustry does not locate in a small town at all
There's absolutely as need for a small community to try and
get a soda fountain bar-equipment plant The tympany won't
even listen
On the other gide of the ledger raw cane sugar processing
plants practically insist on small towns This is a small Industry
located solely in Louisiana and Florida but it disapproves h a
any notion that all industry heads for the big city
Other industries which place a high premien on the small-
ed towns are these associated with timber—legging cam" saw
mills veneer mills shingle mills and '4-weed pleats
