INTEREST WIDENS AS
ELECTION DAY NEARS
RALLIES HELD
TO spur VOTERS
Congressional Races Draw
Most Comment AS Citizens
Make Selections

With the general election of
November 7 only 18 days in the
future, political candidates are
speeding up their campaigns and
the man in the street and his wife
in the kitchen are making their
decisions.
Democratic and Republican GEN.
tral committees have sponsored
rallies throughout the county
and more meetings are planned.
Last Friday night, hundreds at
tended the Democratic rally in the
local armory while an even bigger
crowd attended the Democratic
rally in Oak Harbor, Saturday
evening.
A Republican rally was held in
the local school auditorium Tues
day evening and next Monday
night, another meeting is planned
at Erie Gardens Community Gen.
ter.
Another important Democratic
get-together will be held this
Thursday evening when Governor
Frank j. Lausche will be guest
of honor at an invitational dinner
to be served in Oak Harbor'S War
ner Hotel.
Most interesting races here in
ottawa county are the Ferguson
Taft battle for u. S. Senator and
the neutrality-suspicious. triangle
for election as U. S. Representa-
tive.
There seems to be little discus
sion on other races on the Office
Type ballot which will be used for
the first time next month.
In next weeks issue of the OF
tawa County News, a sample bal
lot will be printed so that every
one can study the ballot and be-
come familiar with the changes.
Straight tickets cannot be voted
with the new ballots, as KS must
be placed before the name OF
each candidate chosen.
Only two county officials, Repre-
sentative Robert Reider and Re-
corder Grace Winters, both DEM
ocrats, will be without opposition
November 7. Their reelection is
a certainty.
County Commissioner Clay Scott,
Republican, will be opposed by
Sanke Bahnsen, Bay township, a
leader long active in the Demo-
cratic party and agricultural cir
cles.
John Miner, one of the local
survivors of the Bataan Death
March and member of American
Legion Post 113 and Disabled
American Veterans, is the Repub-
lican choice to oppose County
Auditor f. A. Guth, veteran
Democratic standard bearer.
On the non-partisan ticket, Com
mon Pleas Judge Tom d. Stahl,
who was appointed last year by
Governor Frank J. Lausche to fill
the vacancy caused by the death
of Judge William Hunt, will be
opposed by Atty. J. G. Hitchcock.
Voters in Lucas and Ottawa
counties are included in the ninth
congressional district where HON.
er A. Ramey, Republican, and
Frazier Reams, running indepen-
IDENTIFY, are attempting to unseat
Congressman Thomas II. Burke.
| Democrat.
Governor Frank ]. Lausche.
Democratic leader, is being op-

Maryland-A Democratic party

battle in which Gov. William
Preston Lane, jr.. won renomina-

Senator Mccarthy, Republican, of

Missouri - Republican Senator
Donnell is hand shaking his way
to what his party colleagues pre-
dict will be a November victory.
New York - The Independent
candidacy of Acting Mayor Vim
cent r. Impelitteri for New York
City mayor has Democrats wor-
ried about their State and ma
tional ticket. Republicans think
Gov. Dewey. bidding for a third
term, will win and pull along to
victory Joe r. Hanley, lieutenant
governor, who is running against
Senator Lehman, Democratic and
Liberal Party nominee.
Ohio-Both parties are shoot
ing the works. with Senator Taft

presidential campaign. Democratic
Gov. Frank Lausche still is pub
licly undecided whether to support
Senator Taft or Democrat Joseph

The Democrats are putting SIM
liar efforts into campaigns to un-
seat Republican Senators in Ore
gon and Wisconsin.
In House campaigns, Ohio ap-
parently represents the biggest
battle-ground, with IA districts
listed in the doubtful class.
Pennsylvania has II districts
that might go either Democratic
or Republican; New York and
California, II each: Illinois, 10;
Missouri, Z, and Wisconsin and
Connecticut, each, including one
Statewide Congress race in Con-
pecticut.
Warren Delaying Campaign.
With five weeks of campaigning
left, here are some reports from
States in the critical areas:
California - Republican Gov.
Earl Warren is saving his re-elec-
tion campaign till later while
James Roosevelt stumps the State.
Many believe the results of the
senatorial contest between Repub-
lican Representative Nixon and
Democratic Representative Helen
Gahagan Douglas will parallel the
outcome of the gubernatorial con-
test.
Colorado - Democratic Repre-
sentative Carroll, a Truman fair
dealer" challenging Republican
Senator Millikin in a race that
might turn more on the election
day condition Of international af-
fairs than on domestic issues.
Connecticut - Because voting
machines hold down the cross
party vote. the Democrats might
stand or fall on the bid of Demo-
cratic Gov. Chester Bowles for
reelection. Democratic Senator
Brien Mcmahon is figured to run
ahead of Gov. Bowles, whose Sen
atorial appointee, William A. Ben
ton might run behind him. Re-
publicans say they are confident
of sweeping the State.
Idaho-Democrats are calling
on Vice President Barkley and
possibly Secretary of Labor Tobin
for outside help, with two SEN
atorial seats and a governorship
at stake.
Illinois - Democrats contend
that the reelection chances of
Senate Majority Leader Lucas
have been helped by the turn of
events in Korea.
Indiana-LineS drawn between
the two parties here are sharper

Party control Of the next Con-
gress remains highly unpredict-
able with the November elections
only a little more than a month
away.
On the basis of present indica-
tions. some politicians say the Re-
publicans are within striking dis
tance of Senate control, where the
minority party now needs a net
gain of seven seats to take over.
These same dopesters give the
Republicans somewhat less chance
to win the House, where 1t needs
a net gain of 48 seats.
On the other hand, there are
some who believe that the Repub-
licans reached the peak of their
challenge about Labor Day, with
their chances declining as sue
cess in the Korean war becomes
more apparent.
G. o. p Concentrating Fire.
AS matters now stand, control
of the. Senate apparently will be
decided in II key States. House
control rests on the results in 146
doubtful districts, with the ma
jority of them lying in the same
States where there are hot SEN
ate races. "
Republicans are concentrating
their fire on Democratic senatorial
places in California. Connecticut,
Idaho, Illinois. New York, Penn
sylvania and Utah.
Since Connecticut, with two
Democratic Senators and Idaho,
with a Democrat and a Repub-
lican each, are electing two Sen
ators. a sweep for the Repub-
llcans could give them gain of
eight in these areas if they held
their own elsewhere.
However, the Democrats are
fighting hard to knock off Re-
Epublicans in Colorado. Indiana.
Iowa, Missouri and Ohio.
S States May Provide Surprises.
Five States which lie outside
Of the areas both parties regard
as critical. also could supply some
surprises in November and might,
in fact. determine Senate con-
troll If the election is very close.
These include Maryland. Okla
homa and Washington. where
Democratic candidates generally
are given the edge but where Re-
lpublicans are backing their hopes
with campaign cash and efforts.
