OPA was vital"
The reception accorded the Presi-
dents speech was on par with
that he received from street crowds
which had waited about three hours
to greet him when his train pulled
into Louisville about o'clock. more
than two and one half hours late.
The delay came when a nine
speech tour over a 141-mile auto
mobile route through Southern Illi-
nois took more time than had been
estimated. Hitting through the coal
and agriculture belt of the Egypt
country, the President lambasted the
Eightieth Congress on its farm ano
labor legislation record, and stressed
the prosperity that the country Is
enjoying under Democratic rule.

From the time the President lef

he had friendly crowds, which wer'

Washington"
May Use Strategy Next Week.
The line seemed indicative of the
strategy Mr.. Truman may follow
when he starts cutting through
normally Republican territory in
Upstate New York next week.
The President had his hottest
audience of the trip last night and,
while it was far from the largest,
1t absorbed the seating capacity OF
the armory-9,O00. For two weeks
or so American Federation of Labor,
CIO and the railroad brotherhoods
had been at work with Democratic
leaders on plans for the affair. and
the display of enthusiasm showed
the effects of organization.
Along with the Presidents speech
the meeting also served as sound
ing board for other Democratic
Office seekers. including Representa-
tive Chapman, who Is running for
the seat now held by Senator Co..

Democrats take comfort from the
idea Of . big vote, particularly since
in the primary elections here the
Democrats topped the Republican
vote, although by q narrow margin.
The Republican organization Is
working hard. 1t does not want to
fall into the morass of overconi-
dence, its leaders say. These leaders
are confident of victory as things
stand, but they will breathe more
freely after the votes have been
counted. In 1946-a Democratic low,
when President Truman was tre-
mendously unpopular-the Repub-
licans elected q Senator and five
of the six members Of the House.
They expect to retain those five
House seats, although admittedly
there is tough fight in some Of the
districts.
G. O. p. Candidates to Benefit.
The Republican candidates for the
House will benefit, it is believed
from the third party candidacy in
four of the districts. These are the
1st, I'd, 5th and 9Th districts. In
the Sd and 4th districts, former Rep
resentative Charles Savage. Demo-
crat, who was defeated in 1916 and
again in q special election in 1947, is
the Democratic nominee against
Representative Mack, Republican.
Mr.. Savage had Wallace support in
the special election, but was defeat
ed. Mr.. Savage was accused Of being
an extreme radical and fellow
traveller. What the Wallace support
will do for, or to him, in the COM
ing election remains to be seen.
In the first district Representa-
tive Jones, Republican, has been
renominated. The Progressives has
put in a candidate, William J. Pen
mock, 35-year-old president of the
Pension Union. Witnesses before

ABOARD PROGRESSIVE CAM
PAIGN PLANE EN- ROUTE TO
LOS ANGELES. Oct. L. Henry
Wallace brings his campaign to CAL
ifornia today, a State which is said
to like him so well that some OF
his aides have placed 1t in his col
umn for next November 2.
Despite the optimism, more con-
servative estimates give the Pro-
gressive presidential candidate
about 100000 California votes. The
immediate outlook for his week OF
campaigning there is somewhat con-
fused.
Mr.. Wallace's problem is whether
to take the stump in active support
of two liberal Democrats who have
the backing Of the Independent Pro-
gressive Party of California in the
Congressional elections.
They are Representatives Helen
Gahagan Douglas and Chet Holi-
field of the 18th and 10th Con-
gressional Districts, respectively.
Both indorse the Marshall Plan for
European recovery. Opposition to
this American policy has been a
corner stone of Mr.. Wallace's cam
paign so far.
Months of Indecision.
Reports that the California Pro-
gressives would not oppose the
Douglas and Holifield candidates.
were confirmed in Washington yes
terday by c. B. Baldwin, Mr.. Wal
lace'S campaign manager. The de-
cision followed months of backing
and filling on the issue, with the
Progressives subjected to bitter
criticism in liberal circles for their
announced intention Of running
their own people against the two
Democrats.
The third party was accused OF
seeking to elect a "reactionary''
Congress by splitting the liberal
vote in closely contested districts.
Mr.. Baldwin's listing yesterday OF
candidates to be supported by the
Progressives revealed pattern OF
retreat on this issue extending far
beyond the boundaries Of California.
The list was not made available to
reporters travelling with Mr.. Wallace
until after they had read accounts
