Ike Keeps Humility
A FTER what a certain TV performer has done to the word
**• “humility,” it takes perhaps a bit of boldness to men-
tion the term in serious vein. But it applies with remarkable
fitness to President Eisenhower.
When, as General Eisenhower, he made a great reputa-
tion as a soldier-diplomat, it was not widely realized how
humble a man he is. Humility is not a quality automati-
cally called to mind as one thinks of a world leader, par-
ticularly a high military commander.
Yet, for the kind of inspiring leadership he was exert-
ipg among the free nations, both as wartime chief and
later as NATO commander, Mr. Eisenhower’s humility was
no handicap. It sewed rather to endear him to our allies
and to strengthen his influence as a leader of men.
IT was in character that he should not wish to seek the
* presidency. He could not, however, indefinitely* turn
aside the pressures upon him to make himself “available.”
With obvious reluctance, he yielded in 1952.
And so he became President, and brought with him to
the White House that same humility. Its existence proved
a shock to many people who had not looked at him closely
until then. They perhaps imagined him equipped with the
kind of ego that makes some leaders ride roughshod over
their opponents.
Mr. Eisenhower does not have it. He is a composer of
differences, an accommodator. Being that, he has brought
much that is new and refreshing in presidential attitude.
He has tried to see all sides, to be President of all the
people. He has sought to avoid humiliating or crushing
anyone.
Still, this admirable trait has its unhappy aspect for a
man occupying the White House. For in that place he is
more than the leader of his country. He is the chief of
his political party, with vast power which he can wield
not only for partisan advantage but also for the larger good.
In other words, the party machinery, properly managed, can
function as a sort of booster for the more cumbersome ma-
chinery of government.
DEING not merely humble but green in politics, the Presi-
5* dent has tried to shrink from this part of his job. He
has made political decisions only when they were forced upon
him. This often has left him at the mercy of competing
advice, with the result that he has seemed to "back and fill”
as pressures shifted.
Likeswise, his desire to “leave Congress alone,” while
soundly based from one point of view, lays him open to
the same difficulty. By putting his office in somewhat
modest perspective, he gives Congress license to assume an
overriding position. Since Congress is an arena reflecting
the strength of the most powerful pressure groups, they,
too, are exalted in stature.
In consequence, the President many times seems to be
a man simply responding to the greatest pressures of the
moment. Yet he holds the greatest office in the world, one
that can be used steadily for commanding influence without
descending to the ruthless, arrogant exercise of power.

rriHERE was absolutely no reason,
A I thought, why I should have
felt that curious tinge of disap-
pointment Just because Olnty had
told me about how she fell out of
love with me. No reason at all.
But I did. I moved a little and sat
up stralgbter In my chair, and
Glnty began eating, absently, turn-
ing things oyer, taking little nibbles
of everything on the tray.
“Were you in love with me when
the catfish stung your foot?” I
tried for a return to the light motif.
“You bawled because It was the
day of the school (play and you
couldn’t wear your new shoes."
Olnty Mncomber smiled. "Prob-
ably I was, TUck Bentley,” she said.
Probably I was. I was about 14
then and being tn love can be grisly
at that age. We were awfully wild
and silly In those days, weren't we?
No wonder our parents were ap-
palled at us."
A little of the desolation had left
Ointy's eyes as she sat propped up
on the bed, nibbling at the tray
of food I had brought her.
I nodded. "We were defiant and
reckless because we were both re-
pressed at home. My father wasn't
critical and he was never arbitrary.
He was just busy and indifferent
and I was an adolescent nuisance.
I don't think he ever took my
ambition to become a doctor very
seriously. He probably thought I
didn't have the stamina to be a
doctor like he was.”
But. lie did admit later that he
was all wrong about you. Tuck.
When my father was Blck, your
father came here s lot and he
always talked about you. When you
got your degree, he was awfully
pround and told everybody In town.
Do you ever hurt Inside,” Glnty
went on, “wishing you'd been
kinder to your parents? That's
what’s so awful now, knowing I’ll
never have another chance to $ry
to love my mother. I did try, but
I must not have been very sincere
about It, for she always held me
off and was so bitter. But maybe
she was hurting Inside too.”
I put my handB hard into my
pockets as she talked, for I hpd
a sudden, Impulsive urge to gather
Glnty up In my arms, a feeling
that we had always belonged to-
gether and that In a world full of
unsympathetic people we had been
two lone souls who had no one
but each other.
She put the tray aside then
and said, "Please—I can't eat any
more, truly.”
“Can’t you sleep now, Olnty—
get a little rest?"
She sat up, pushing the pillows
away. "There are things that have
to be done for her—for Mother.
I’ve been selfish again, giving way,
thinking about myself. Ill have to
go. WUl you take me In your car.
Tuck?”
"Of course. I'll wait outside
while you dress. You want to go
to Gill's?"
“I nvust,” ehe looked at me with
dawning consternation in her eyes.
"But, Tuck—I can’t pay him! I
can't pay Gill for burying mother!"
“Gin will give you all the time
you need." I made my tone busi-
ness-like, I wasn't going to offend
her again with offers of help.
Ginty’s dignity was suddenly
precious to me.

and then the undertaker asked
us to go with him to the cemetery.
It came to me with a sort of shock
as we walked down avenues of
oleanders that I’d never seen my
mother's grave. Gill knew where It
was and I went there and read the
inscription on the flat marble
marker, and stood for a little while
trying to moke myself feel near to
the woman who slept there.
Olnty came and stood beside me,
and without any conscious move-
ment, her hand was in mine.
"I didn't even know her name
was Victoria,” I said. “My father
always called her Duok."
“Victoria 8. George Bentley,"
Glnty read aloud. "It's a splendid
sort of name, Isn’t it? But she was
too yivld and allye, Tuck, no grave
could ever hold her.”
"No,” I said. “No grave would
ever be deep enough to hold her.”
"Wherever she Is, she loves you
now, Tuck. I think my mother
loves me too. I sort of feel It.”
"I'm glad, Glnty."
We walked out of that place,
still holding hands. Gill Sunder-
land looked away discreetly. Maybe
he thought we were lovers. At any
rate, he was understanding and
gentle, and promised to send his
widowed young daughter over to
stay with Ginty till the funeral was
over.
* * *
rrttfRE'E days after Mrs. Ma-
* comber's funeral the letter
came from Dr. Griffin. I was there
when the mailman tossed It inside
the screen and I picked it up.
Frankie was standing there and I
suspected that ehe was watching
for it.
She said, “It’s front Dr. Griffin
at Orange Hospital, isn’t It? You
aren’t going to give it to him,
Tuck." It was a statement rather
than a question.
Our eyes clashed briefly. “Yes,
I'm gojng to give It to him," I said.
“But well have to tell him things
that aren't true! He's so sensitive,
he's almost uncanny about It. Don’t
you think It would be better he
didn't even see the letter?”
‘No. I don’t. If he doesnt see
the letter he’ll think that Griffin
has let hlmi down. He’ll begin to
fret and want me to telephone. I'm
not In lavor of lying to him at
all, you know that. I haven't liked
this elaborate deception you and
Mitchell have been carrying an.”
(To Be Continued)
TNTENDED to go on the foliage
I tour yesterday, having never
been in the Winding Stair
mountain area, but goofed off and
didn't go. After seeing the pictures
and reading about the trip, began
searching for a reason for not
going. Came up with the conclu-
sion that going some where at
4:30 a. m. just for fun Is too
paradoxical to produce the de-
sired result. Duck hunting at 4
a. m. is okay but right now that
is the only activity I can think
of where one should be going to
and not from at that hour.
Note with a sort of grim satis-
faction the difficulties Oklahoma
City Is experiencing with her
Big One campaign. Their slogan
“Give Once and For All” sounds
fine but it Is the group who are
handing out payroll deductions
thereby giving twelve times In-
stead of once who are carrying
the load. Tinker Field In their
own little bailiwick has contribu-
ted the amount greater Oklahoma
City is short of their goal. What
the Big pne falls to publicize Is
that many of the contributors at
Tinker field live In towns adja-
cent, El Reno, Shawnee, Yukon
and others and1 give where they
work as well as where they live.
Federated fund campaigns are a
headache and defeat the great
American principle of the free
association.
¥ KNOW now why the accepted
* span of life is three score
and ten. It isn’t physical, It Is
mental. It is the inability to ac-
cept the lnconsequentlals. F*r In-
stance. Today I read that to-
morrow we’ll be wearing sweat-
shirts adorned with jewels. A
sweat shirt any place but on the
athletic field Is my particular
aversion and such encrusted with
jewels, draping milady's form
leaves me rebellious If not de-
fiant. Fashion also dictates
feathers in our ears.
Those of us who have passed
the half century mark are not
ready for a ‘good black taffeta,'
a bonnet trimmed with violets,
tied under our chins; a walking
stick, a rocking chair; but we will
not wear a sunburst effect at
ear lobes with three temple bell
shapes dangling, all done in
bright red feathers.
Not for all the tea in China
will we be caught out in a
jewelled sweat-shirt and feathers
in our ears. We Just couldn’t take
it.
