Both Parties Trade
Preliminary Blows
For 1850 Elections
By the Assoeioted Press

Political tom-toms in Demo-
cratic and Republican camps have
begun humping out the prelude
to the 1850 congressional elections.
From the Republican side, Sem
ator Wherry, of Nebraska, hit the
first note in radio speech yes
terday.
The Senate Republican leader
accused Truman Democrats of
threatening "our historic way Of
life through socialism, spendthrift
Government and unbearable
taxes"
He predicted the election of a
Republican Congress next year
ito stop the biggest giveaway show
on earth"
Senator Wherry also assailed the
Brannan farm plan which has
White House support, as "the
worst of the Socialistic schemes"
of the present administration.
Economic Monstrosity"
"It is an economic monstrosity
brazen attempt to buy the farm
ers' votes and the liberty of free
enterprise, out of the public treas
ury, and. at the same time, buys
the votes of urban citizens, by
subsidizing their food bills out OF
the public treasury" he declared
Senator Wherry said the solu-
ton of farm surplusses lis utili-
zation" such as converting COM
modities into motor fuel. Until
that is operating. he said farmers
are entitled to price-support pro-
lection.
Senator Anderson, Democrat OF
New Mexico, led off for the Demo
Gratis at party rally near Hamil-
ton, Ohio. He ridiculed Republi-
can welfare state" and "statism'
digs at the administration. The
President, he declared, looks for
ward with hope to electing ir
1850 enough Congress members tx
carry out every part of his legis.
lative program.
Anti Drive Opens.
Senator Anderson's speech was
the opening salvo in a drive tc
defeat Senator Taft, Republican
of Ohio, who has led several bitter
battles in the Senate against ad-
ministration measures. Senator
Taft's successful fight against ad-
ministration-backed labor legisla-
ton especially stirred the ire o1
Democrat leaders.
Senator Anderson denied Re-
publican charges that the admin
istration is leading the people to-
ward welfare state and that
Americans have lost some of their
liberties under President Truman
"The citizens of these United
States are not only in possession
of all the liberties they have ever
enjoyed" he asserted, "but I came
away from, the Wednesday night
party of the Democratic National
Committee convinced that we are
on the threshold of even an ex-
pansion of the liberties we have
thus far enjoyed %<'i
Gabrielson Optimistic.
In another radio program Gu,
Gabrielso1 the new Republical
chairman, said his party woult
work to save the Nation from tn
destructive effects" of what h
called Mr.. Truman's promise
everything policies"
Senator Anderson jibed at Mr.
Gabrielson in his speech. He sait
the Republican chairman is th'
big wheel in a corporation which
has borrowed more than $18.000,'
900 from the RFC," and addec

~,

that if some Republican is ex-
pected to speak out on the issue
of abolishing Government loans
to business, "the Gabrielson an
sWer is sure to be Not mel"
Mr.. Gabrielson said the Repub-
licans have an excellent chance
to regain control of Congress next
year because the people "are be-
coming more and more disguised
with the ineptness and extrava-
gances of the Truman admins
tration."

Railroads Score Big Trucks.
I The rapid growth of heavy COM
mercial trucking lines using public
highways has become a matter OF
concern to taxpayers as well as to
the railroads with whom the trucks
compete, according to the current
issue of the Baltimore e. Ohio
magazine.
Each year the trucks get bigger
and are costing taxpayers millions
of dollars to keep roads repaired,
the railroad magazine declared.
Norfolk g. Western Railroad
commented in the July issue OF
its magazine that "the American
taxpayers put up $2,274,00 900 in
1948 to build and MAINTAIN public
highways over which heavy motor
trucks carried on their business
at a profit and added that to
days highway costs are entirely
out of proportion for their Eeneft
to the average motorist who is
helping to build expensive roads.

A busy Christmas Tor Long Distance

Long Distance telephone lines will
be crowded with calls this Christmas.
Well be working hard to put them
through, with thousands of telephone
people ON the job and lots Of new
circuits in service. Still there are
bound to be delays.
Rather than risk disappointment
on your calls to faraway friends
and relatives, why not telephone
them before Christmas Eve or after
Christmas Day? You'll get faster
service then. Reduced calling rates
will be in effect all day Monday,
December 26.

AmE Church
AppeaI Refused In
WiIberforce Case

Wilberforce, Ohio, March % -
The Ohio Supreme Court refused
to consider the appeal of Wilber-
force University, the AME church
school, from Greene County Court
decisions, and the unanimous de-
cision of the court of appeals, by
denying the custer suit petition
in the O'Neill Hall case
The Supreme Court sustained
the decision of the Court of APP
peals and of Judge Frank L..
Johnson in the Court of Common
Pleas of Greene County.
O'Neill Hall, the building from
which Wilberforce University
sought to GUST the state, was con-
structed entirely by state funds
in 1892.
Judge Johnson had ruled in an
early decision that the state could
claim the building by adverse po-
session. The Cour tof Appeals,
through Judges William G.
Wiseman of Dayton, Ohio; Ros-
puB 'UopuoT 10 4o9quIoH . 600
Fred G. Miller of Columbus, con-
Cured in approving the decision
of the lower court.
The Appellate Court said "the
two institutions have always been
and are now separate entities,
the Wilberforce University being
supported, controlled and manag-
ed by the African Methodist Epis-
copal Church, and the College of
Education by the State of Ohio
Judge Johnson, who had over
ruled a motion for a new trial
and whose opinion the appeals
court had upheld, described the
SD1IL VI Cnul I'll anu oldbS IAtO GNA
schools as petty politics., ant
said attorneys for the AME
Church had failed to prove claims
in the eviction suit. The judge
held it was perfectly evident thai
the state built O'Neill Hall, ha(
maintained it and always hac
claimed it."
The Supreme Court decision
terminates a series of five suit
in courts of law instituted b!
the African Methodist Episcopa
Church to prohibit by law tn
operation of the State College a
Wilberforce, Ohio.
