gives exposure to enough people to elect you to office, provided they remember you favorably.

That background is one of the assets for Senator B. Elverett Jordon as he runs for a third six-year term.

Only one; he also has significant seniority in the U.S. Senate, excellent standing in the Tar Heel business and industrial fraternity as a successful textile executive, and wide family connections including Governor Bob Scott as a distant cousin.

In addition, Jordan has the edge of incumbency over those who aspire to his office. While they spend time making up their minds whether to run in next springs Democratic primary, hes hustling.

Fit and Frisky

Moving frisky, talking folksy, looking fit and every inch energetic office-holder and campaigning politician. Senator Jordon came before the Raleigh Kiwanis Club last week. It was one of the routine civic club appearances on every elected officials calendar, but Jordans manner and the themes he struck invested the occasion with portents of the campaign to come.

. Getting out of Vietnam took precedence in Jordans listing of problems bothering the American people. They want out of this war, and they want out bad, he asserted. Drugs, pollution, rampant crime, welfare reform were among issues touched on by the Senator from a moderate-conservative point of view comforable to his middle-class, business and professional listeners.

.Iordan looked ready for a race, and he said he was.

Of course. Id rather run unopposed but I've had op-jK)sition every time before," he leinarked "Its a free country. If anybody wants to run, he certainly can.

Morgan Looks Elsewhere One who may not after months of speculation that he might is Attorney General Robert Morgan. Reports in political circles last week

said Morgan now is concentrating his interest on the Governors office in next years elections.

Undoubtedly, Morgan could have mounted a stiff challenge and the Senator and.friends may well breathe easier to have his attention elsewhere.

Still, the track is not clear and may well be crowded by next Mays primary. Congressman Nick Galifianakis, whose Foiirth District was severely altered by the legislature, is pondering the race. State Senator Herman Moore of Charlotte is doing the same. Other candidates are likely to come forward in the months ahead.

Jordan, whose 75th birthday comes in September, put to rest rumors he had been urged by some democratic leaders to retire rather than run again. Nothing to it, he said. I had a telephone call, saying some sort of delegation was coming to see me. I said I was running, and I never heard anything else from it.

The theory advanced was that Jordan, by reasons of age and health, would be vulnerable. A hard-fought Democratic primary for the seat, whoever the winner, could leave the party weak against the Republicans in the fall. Congressman James T. Broyhill of Lenoir is often mentioned as a prospective GOP contender though he has not clearly indicated whether he would give up a relatively safe seat as a Representative for the risk of running for Senate.

Candid On Health

Jordan demonstrated to the Raleigh Kiwanians the candor and humor with which he treats the issue of his personal health.

Reporting his support for a federal crash program of cancer research, he related his personal encounter with the disease. In the course of a check-up at Duke Hospital, he >aid, doctors discovered a rowth on his intestines.

It had done no damage. They chopped it out. Now both ends are all right, Jordan said. His audience applauded.

Certainly the schedule he sets belies both years and impairment to health. He came to Raleigh from Waynesville where he helped the mountain town celebrate its centennial. Since the July 4th holiday, hes ridden in two weekend wagon trains.

While years in age may hamper voter appeal, years in service is an enhancement. Since he went to the U.S. Senate in 1958 (named by former Governor Luther Hodges upon the death of W. Kerr Scott, father of the present Governor), Jordan has risen in ranks of seniority, prestige and influence. Hes vice chairman of the Agriculture Committee, a sensitive post for North Carolinas farm economy and its beleaguered tobacco crop. Farm voters wont like to give that up.

Since the biU calls for initiating a curriculum for the ECU School of Medicine, an attempt was made by Sen. Herman Moore of Mecklenburg to amend the bill, specifying that the authority was ^nly for a one year school.

The amendment was beaten down and as Sen. Jyles Coggins of Wake County said the matter was simply one of semantics. We should not stifle the hopes of any institution, he declared.

So now ECU is on the way toward development of its first year of physician training with an appropriation of $1.4 million for planning and operations and $350,000 for adding to die medical library.

Representatives of UNC Medical School and ECU have conducted a study and concluded that a transfer arrangement is feasible. The law spells out that transfer to Chapel Hill will be guaranteed for the students who complete the one-year ECU program satisfactorily. This is expected to be approximately 20 to 30 students per year and the first class will be admitted at ECU in the fall of 1972. Many of these students will be coming back for the final year of clinical training to Pitt Memorial and other nearby hospitals. A $500,000 fund was established to enable UNC to establish such a program in the east.

North Carolinas universities have frequently been accused of squabbling over funds and programs to the point where they might not serve the best interest of the taxpayers. While this may have been exaggerated, here is a splendid opportunity for UNC-Chapel Hill and ECU to show all the people of North Carolina that cooperation is possible between our institutions of higher learning. This program can be made to work, if there is fidl cooperation all around. Most important, if it does what we think it can do, it can eventually mean that more physicians will find their way into practice in Eastern North Carolina, where the need is so critical.

RALEIGH Attorney General Robert Morgan still boyish looking at 44 sat down in his black chair in the spacious office in the Justice Building, draped one leg over the arm rest, put his other foot in the chair and said: To be honest with you. Im giving more consideration to the issues that will come out in the Governors race than I am to any other political campaign.

For all who have been guessing about Morgans political plans for 72 U.S. Senate, Governor, Attorney General thats as close as theyll get to an official announcement for a few months to come.

But Morgan has made up his mind and he is running for (Governor. The decision was made about two weeks ago.

The fact that Morgan is considered a tower of strength in Tar Heel politics is an amazing story. And his decision to run for Governor comes 18 months after he said: I look out my window and see thatBob Scott has the worst job in Raleigh.

Morgan was raised on a farm in Harnett County outside of Lillington. His parents were of very modest means and while his farmer father voted for Democrats, he didnt dabble in politics.

Robert got off tlje farm and went to undergraduate school at UNC Chapel Hill and East Carolina. There was a hitch in the Navy and law school at Wake Forest.

While in his last year of law schopl, GoV. Kerr Scott appointed the Clerk of Court of Harnett County to a position on the Superior Court. A delegation went to see Morgan, asked him to take the Clerks job and Morgan

agreed. But Judge Clawson Williams was to make the appointment and he told Morgan: Im not appointing you because youd never finish law school if I did.

The post came up in the March 1950 election and Morgan, at the age of 24, entered the race. He went to school at Wake Forest Monday through Friday and did his campaigning on weekends. He won the election and in addition to being Clerk, he was also judge of juvenile and probate courts.

That job had more than anything to do with moulding my thinking, Morgan says. The hardest thing I ever had to do in my life was order mental patients to jail and 1 had to do it every day. It was a picture that Ive never gotten over and Ill never understand how we as a society can say that we cant afford to give these people proper care. It was in those days that I came in contact with the real needs of the people.

After serving one four-year term as Clerk of Court, Morgan ran for the State Senate in 1955. His opponent was a veteran politician who campaigned in a green Lincoln and printed up poster that read:Dont Send A Plow Boy To Raleigh To Do A Mans Job.

Morgan won and had barely taken his seat in the Senate before he was in a running feud with the late John Umstead about the care of mental patients.

I had commited mental patientsJto jail because there was no other place for them, Morgan said, and I felt what Mr. Umstead was proposing didnt go far enough to correct the problem. Mr.

Strength For Today

WITHOUT CEASING

And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, said Jesus, that wilt I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall as anything in my name, I will , do it (John 14:12-14).

Anything? Thats what the Ciood Book says. Can I ask for a million jdollars and gel it? That deperids, of course, on whether you really need it or not. Will it make you a better person? Will it advance Gods purpose in the world?

Of this you can be sure God is more anxious to give us his good gifts than we are to receive them. No" is sometimes a blessed answer to prayer. Wait is another uiirciful aoswcr.'Rut mostly the answers will be Yes, and

here is something you forgot to ask for.

God is a Father. If we know how to give good gifts to our children, how much more will God give his greatest of gifts to us.

More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreapis of. That has been said in the past, and it is as true today as it ever was. Jesus was a man of prayer. His great prayer the night before he was captured and sent to the cross was that this cup of suffering might pass from hip. Yet not my will but tUne , be done (Matthew 26:39; Luke 42). The answer was No, but the world got.a Saviour as the result of that divine decision.

Unauthorized To Leak

WASHINGTON - No one seems to be more distraught over the release of the Pentagon Papers than the famed Hawk columnist Joseph Wallstop.

When I visited Joe in his bunker underneath his house in Georgetown, Joe was frothing at the mouth.

They were my papers, Joe cried, "nie New York Times and Washington Post had no right to use them.

I look confused. How could they be your papers, Joe? I though they belonged to the Pentagon.

I have had a deal with three administrations to get first crack at all top secret classified documents.

Why you, Joe?

Because I am a friend of the Pentagon, because I believe in the war, because when they leak a document to me they know it will be printed the way they wrote it. Now everyone has access to top secret material. Its not

fair.

Are you trying to tell me, Joe, ' that the Pentagon Papers arent the first classified documents that got into the papers?

You must be a fool, Joe replied contemptuously every one of my columns is based on top secret in formation.

The Administrations quarrel with the leaking of the Pentagon Papers is not with what was revealed in them, but who printed them. Joe, if I hear you right, the government has been leaking classified documents to friendly newspapermen for years.

I dont know how I can make it any clearer, Joe said in his usual irritated voice.

Then what did The New York Times and Washington Post do that was so wrong? They printed unauthorized leaks of classified documents. The

leaks that I have printed have been authorized by the highest men in government. When they give me a top secret paper I know they want to see it in the papers. For one thing it shows them in a good light which is very important if youre a high government official. The Pentagon Papers show high

Other Editors Say Shortage Of Doctors

(Newport, R.I., Daily News)

(]leneral practitioners, the traditional family doctors, are a scarce breed. There is a shortage of doctors of all kinds in the country but the GP shortage is the most dramatic.

Recent records of the American Medical Association emphasize the decrease in family doctors per thousand of populatim.

In Cleveland, there was (me family docUm for every 2,399 residents; in San Francisco, (me for every 2,900; in Boston, one for every 3,100 in Baltimore, one of every 3,500; in St. Louis, one for every 3,900; and in Washington, one for every 4,130.

The low number in Washington is due to the migration of doctors to the suburbs. Crime and urban problems have driven many of them away. In the suburbs, they find not (mly peace and qfuiet, but affluence. They work less and make more in the suburbs, without fear of holdups or muggings.

Many of the doctors who have left the city have been replaced by foreign-trained physicians. Iheir qualiry, while often excellent, tends to vary widely. Their numbers increase as the American doctors decrease in number.

The doctor shortage is felt most in rural areas, though in the smaller cities, the number per thousnd population compares favorably with the larger cities. This, too, is due in large part of the influx of foreign-trained physicians.

The need for doctors is nationwide. More medical schools, more scholarships or other financial arrangements to enable boys and girls from low-income and me^um-income families to take medical education, and more training hospitals in which to study and train, will bring the problem within control.

officials in a bad light and that, my friend, no matter how you look at it, is treason.

Maybe Daniel Ellsberg didi^t know The New York Times and Washington Post were unauthoized to receive government secrets.

He knew it all right, Joe said. And if there was any question he should have checked with the Joint (Hhiefs of Staff. They have a top secret list of newspapermen who can have access to classified documents. I can assure you that no one from The New York Times or The Washington Post is on that list.

I can understand why youre mad, Joe. But is there anything you can do about it?

I certainly can. Since the Pentagon Papers were printed I have received hundreds of top secret classified documents from sources I cannot reveal, proving the Pentagon Papers are wrong.

But how does the reader know your top secret papers are more accurate than Ellsbergs top secret papers?

Because mine were leaked to me by responsible men who have no ax to grind except to prove the decisions they made were right, Joe said.

That makes sense. Wouldnt the government be wise to list the newspaper-(Uontinued On Page 5)

Ago Today 40 Years

By GWYN COGHILL July 21.1931 K, W. Cbbb, supervisor of sales of the Greenville Tobacco Market, stated

today that the China-

American Tobacco Company, whose plant covers an entire block in the heart of Tobacco Town, has been thoroughly overhauled and recon

ditioned for the handling of the 1931 crop market. The plant now has a capacity of 100,000 pounds of tobacco

each day. %

A giant stalk of corn, measuring fifteen feet in length, was brought to the city today by E. F. Arnold, director of the Pitt County Farm Department. The stalk was taken from a field about three miles from Bethel.

First products of home canneries went on display in the window of the office of the Merchants Association yesterday afternoon. The first contributor to the display window was Mr. J. C. Galloway whose offering consisted of jars of corn, peas and carrots.

Transfer of division headquarters of the State Highway Patrol from Washington to Greenville was completed today and the office will be opened for business tomorrow morning.

Compete For Wayward Dollars

By ELMER ROESSNER All around the world there are countries which, in return for fees, commissions and perhaps a bit of cumshaw to local politicians, ywHl save enterprisers thousands or millions of dollars.

Liberia, Honduras and Panama will register foreign-owned ships, give them the right to sail the seven seas under their flags, and to take advantage of their beneficent' conditions, including the payment of starvation wages.

And there are ck)zens of vest-pocket countries that, in exchange for modest fees, contihissions to the local elite, and a few dollars" scattered in a controlled pattern, will provide tax havens. Tlieir clients run from^gaiigsters with blood moni^l^ conservative and elegant corporations determined to avoid a variety of taxes.

creasingly adapting their laws to the needs of, shall we say? depositors.

Rating System The current issue rates the various havens, noting that American firms tend to head to havens in Central Europe, uliile Etffopeans send their wealth to the Caribbean.

In a summary of tax havens, it repor|s: Switzerland: Still the favoi^ spot, despite fbreigh-

source income is subject to some tax.

Bermuda: Still a haven for the discriminating.

Panama: A favorite for those in a hurry to form specialized companies. Formalities take little time.

Assisi, Italy: An excellent short-term haven for specialists. A 1957 law suspended all taxes on turnover and consumption until 1972 to protect the citys historical, monumental and artistic nature. Ah, what culture!

In Sterling Area There are many havens in the sterling area:

Briti^ Virgin Islands: A 10-year tax holiday for hotels and pilot industries is in effect. V

Cayman Islands: A new haven, especially for sterling holders, a - model of stability.

> Channel Islands: Another

new haven where some outrageous promoters have recently been operating.

Bahamas: Another place for quick corporate formation, but made risky by the political instability and the activities of the Bay Street Boys, who form businesses by putting up a plaque on Bay Street Nassau.

Curaco: Specializing in only one type of haven, for oil . companies, with a low rate of taxation. i

Aruba: Ditto.

Singapore: Working on new laws to make it the tax haven of the Far East.

Malta: Trying to get into the act. Last February it announced partial tax exemption on incomes of comercial banks and funds raised abroad.

' Other areas trying to get into the act are Hong^Kong, the New Hebrides, Surinam, French St. Martin aqd Dubai on the Persian Gulf.
