Successes in Korea
And Prosperity Aid
Lucas Senate Race
Illinois Republicans
Refuse to Concede That
Dirksen Loses Ground
BY Gould Lincoln
Stor Stoff Correspondent

CHICAGO, Oct. GA month
before election, the candidacy of
Senator Scott Lucas. Senate ma
jority leader, is riding high. wide
and handsome. due largely to two
thingS-recent successes in Korea
and the continuing employment
and prosperity of the great mass
of people, including the farmers.
His Republican opponent, for
mer Representative Everett M.
Dirksen, is having a tough time
convincing the voters there should
be change in Government con-
troll under these circumstances.
The Republican leaders in Il
linois, including Mr.. Dirksen make
no such admission. Mr.. Dirksen
has been campaigning for more
than year. He has made a
thousand speeches up and down
and across the entire State-and
he is an exceedingly good cam
paigner.
Kept in Washington by his
duties as majority leader, Senator
Lucas campaign has been far
more limited. However, Mr.. Lucas
who is seeking his third term in
the Senate, has gone over the
State with a fine tooth comb
many times in past years and is
widely known.
In 1914 he ran 1900 votes
ahead of the late President Roose-
velt-largely due to the fact that
Senator Lucas received a consid-
erable number Of Republican and
independent votes that were not
cast for Mr.. Roosevelt in the
presidential race of that year.
incidentally. Senator Lucas is
one of number of Democratic
senators who are hoping to be
reelected this year-with the aid
of Republicans. Two others in
particular are Senator Myers of
Pennsylvania and Senator Nc
Mahon of Connecticut.
Did Republicans FavOrs.
There is a reason why Repub-
lican businessmen and farmers
may kick in for these Democratic
candidates-the fact that they
have been assiduous in doing IA
vors in Washington for Repub-
licans in their respective States
and Senator Lucas particularly has
been a staunch supporter of legis-
lation to aid the farmers, includ-
ing price supports.
1t was the reluctance of Mid
west farmers, in Illinois, Ohio,
Minnesota and Wisconsin, for ex-
ample, to vote for a change when
they were doing we'll that caused

Civil Defense Director
Will Be Named Soon,
Mayors Are Informed
Conference Secretary
Says President Moy
Fill Position Today

President Truman is expected
to appoint a Federal civil defense
director within "a matter of a
few days-perhaps today" an
official of the United States Con-
ference of Mayors said today.
1t. Col. Paul Betters. executive
secretary, told the conference
that the President would not wait
for Congress to return before set
ting UP a Federal organization to
handle civil defense.
when was at the White House
the other day, I was informed
that the order setting up the Fed
eral organization was being held
up only because of the desire of
the President to get a top notch
man to head it," Col. Betters said.
NSRB Heads Queried.
Col. Betters made his predic-
ton during a question answer
session of the conference at the
Hotel Statler this morning in
which the mayors put their
queries to officials of the National
Security Resources Board.
Mayor David L. Lawrence Of
Pittsburgh interrupted the ques-
tioning at one point to read a
note from w. Stuart Symington,
NSRB chairman. advising the
conference that donations to local
civil defense organizations are
deductible for Federal income tax
purposes.
Information Is Sought.
Despite Mr.. Symington's state
ment yesterday that there was nc
need for unnecessary haste in
setting up plans for civil defense
against atomic attacks, several
Mayors took the floor to demand
information on when the overall
Federal direction would be forth
coming.
Col. Betters replied that Federal
officials should be given an op-
portunity to submit their recon-
mendations to Congress before
any criticism is leveled.
Until Congress acts and until
the Federal Government submits
it's recommendations, it's more OF

World Series Returns
To Familiar Field -
Yankee Stadium
New York Club Goes
All-Out in Providing
Entertainment for Fons

Star Stoff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-The Worlo
Series moved into more familiar
surroundings today as the Yam
KEGS and Phillies met in Yankee
Stadium.
The opposing pitchers. Ed Lopat
for the Yankees and Ken Heint-
zelman, were in sharp contrast to
most of the series pitchers to date.
Whereas Vic Raschi and Allie
Reynolds of New York and Robin
Roberts of the Phils are fast-ball
hurlers, Lopat and Heintzelman
are noted soft" pitchers.
Both left-handers rely on what
the trade calls Junk" throwing up
an assortment of curves, sliders
and relying heavily on nicking the
corrers of the plate.
The Yankee management went
first class, as usual, in providing
a background of pageantry. Pre-
game entertainment consisted OF
music by Guy Lombardo and his
Royal Canadians, and tomfoolery
by AL Schacht. but shortly before
the players took the field. Com
missioner A. B. Chandler ordered
a serious note.
AS at Philadelphia, a 30-second
silent prayer for peace was re-
quested, followed by the playing
Of the National Anthem, Lucy
Monroe singing.
Heintzelman, who won II games
for the Phils last year, won only
3 and lost 8 this season. He won
his first game on May 7 with a
three-hit shutout against Cincin-
natl and didn't win again until
September IS in relief role
against the same club.
He was conceded a chance be-
cause the Yankees have difficulty
with pitchers of his type during
the regular season. Bob Cain of
the White Sox beat them four
times. Stubby Overmire of the
Browns won three and Steve Macy
and Al Sirna of the Mats won two
each.
