Two Of Congress most colorful
figures come up with denomination
tries against tough opposition today
Representative Hamilton Fish In
New York's 10th district and Senator
Bennett Clark In Missouri.
Mr.. Fshis chances are affected not
alone by the strength Of his op-
ponent, Attorney August w. Bennett
Of Newburgh. but also by the fact
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey and Wendell
L. Willkie have called for his defeat.
Mr.. Fish, outspoken Republican
who has been in the House since
1920. was quoted in . newspaper
article as having said that Jews are
more or less for the New Deal" and
that 1t would be better If they split
their vote between the two major
parties"
Gov. Dewey, the COP presidential
nominee, accused him of having
raised religious and racial" issues ;
Mr.. Fish commented that he has
simply stated facts.

From the Republicans national
chairman, Herbert Brownell. r..
there came, meanwhile, q predic-
ton that Gov. Dewey will carry at
least rs States. with 3ll electoral
votes, against President Roosevelt in
November. The victor needs only
266.
Senator Clark's opponent for the
Democratic nomination is Roy Nc
Kittrick, Missouri's attorney gen.
eral, who has campaigned as . pro-
Roosevelt man, attacking Senator
Clarks record on prewar foreign
policy.
Senator Clark, who at times has
dissented vigorously from admin
tstration actions during his II
years in the Senate, has the support
of Senator Harry s. Truman, the
Democratic vice presidential NOM
inee.
Gov. Forrest G. DonneI is one OF
seven Republicans contesting' in
Missouri primaries for their partya
senatorial nomination. Nominees
also are being selected for Is House
seats. New Workers are nominating
for IS House seats but the Fish
Bennet race overshadows all the

Gratis and Virginia Democrats like
wise hold primaries today, Virgin
ians voting on candidates for nine
House memberships.
Republican Senator Clyde M
