Senator Capehart issued an
invitation to any one who

or to be heard publicly. He
mentioned specifically Repre-

having profited by about $4,000

house built with a Government
guaranteed loan.
This might not have been
brought out, according to Sena-

night at StateSboro, Ga. Mr..
Preston said Senator Capehart
was making political capital on
the eve of the November elec-

Martin Sees Chaos
# Democrats Win
BY the Associufed Press

MACOMB, Ill, Oct. 8.-House
Speaker Martin. Republican, of
Massachusetts, says the alterna-
tive to a strong Republican ma
jority in the next Congress is
"chaoS."
This, he said in addressing a
Republican rally last night,
would be "the chaos of an oppo-
sition party blocking the pro-
gram of the President, twisting
progress for political benefit"
Mr.. Martin added:
"If we let it happen this fall,
we may be writing the obituary
of a free Nation. We will not" "
The House Speaker declared
that the 83d Congress and the
Eisenhower administration COM
piled record of achievement
that towers above the record of
any other Congress, any other
administration" and that election
of a Republican Congress this fall
is needed to advance that record.
Earlier yesterday. Mr.. Martin
predicted at Springfield Ill. that
the G. o. P. will gain 10 to Is
new House seats in the Novem-
ber election. He declined to say
in which States the gains might
be made. Mr.. Martin is on a six
State campaign tour to aid Re
publican candidates for Congress.

Nevada Ruling Due
Soon on Filling Of
McCarran Seat
BY the Assoeioted Press

CARSON CITY. New, Oct. B.
Nevada's three man Supreme
Court today weighed the question
of whether the voters or the
States Republican Governor will
name a successor to the late
Democratic Senator Pat McCar-
ran, whose term has two more
years to run.
The high court took under
study last night the legal con-
troversy between Republicans
and Democrats and indicated it
may rule later today.
With election only three weeks
away, Chief Justice Edgar Father
told newSmen after listening to
two hours of legal arguments
that the court will decide "as
soon as possible because time is
of the essence"
Governor Names Attorney.
Gov. Charles Russell already
has appointed 51-year-old Reno
Attorney Ernest Brown-an Eli
senhower supporter-to fill out
the vacancy. Democrats have
challenged the legality of the ap-
pointment. They insist Mr.
Brown should serve only until
the winner of a November. sena-
torial race takes Office next
January
The Democratic candidate is
Alan Bible, A, Reno attorney and
McCarran protege.
The G. o. P. Thursday won
permanent Injunction blocking
candidates from being placed on
the ballot. Democrats promptly
appealed to the high court.
Nevada's Democratic attorney
general. William Mathews, told
the court yesterday the 18th
amendment TO the United States
Constitution provides that the
voters name a successor at the
November general election.
The amendment reads that
the Governor shall make tenn
porary appointments until the
people fill the vacancies by elec-
ton as the legislature may di-
rect"
The Republicans, Mr.. Mathews
continued, SAY there is no law
to fill the vacancy of the late
Senator McCarran by election"

Summerfield Replies.
Lester Summerfield, former
G. o. P. national committeeman
from Nevada. replied the amend
ment makes no mention of when
the election should be held,
maintaining the Constitution
empowered the Governor to ap-
point q successor until the term
expires.
The next general election,
Mr.. Summerfield said. lis now
in progress" He asserted it
started when absentee ballots
were mailed out recently.
Mr.. Mathews and the Washoe
County District Attorney. Jack
Sreeter-a Democrat, countered
that absentee balloting was "a
privilege and voters cast ballots
at their own risk. knowing full
we'll the ballot may change be-

Mr.. Simon said he had a memo

Mr.. Chaite said he had no

He was asked whether the re-

assistant commissioners might
handle such matter.
Mr.. Chaite insisted he did not

tee threw the matter out, and

Mr.. Neuberger.

Mr.. Neuberger is the author
of five books-the latest being
Adventure in Politics. grow
ing out of his own experience
in the State Legislature. He
says in this book that the States
are not ready TO take back from
the Federal Government many
responsibilities, as recommended
by Gen. Eisenhower. He has
been'a member of the State Sen
ate since 1943. and his wife a
member of the House since 1850.
He has written, too, articles for
the Saturday Evening Post, COL
lier's Harpers and other maga-
zines.
The Republicans are counting
on electing the acting Governor,
Paul Patterson, president of the
State Senate who took over the
office of Governor when Secre-
tary of the Interior Mckay re-
signed to enter Gen. Eisenhower
cabinet. Their estimate is he will
win over. Joseph Carson, his
Democratic opponent, by about
$4,000 votes. The Democrats, on
the other hand, hope that Mr..
Neuberger will run far enough
ahead of Senator Gordon to pull
Mr.. Carson through to victory.
A real race has developed here
in . the Sd congressional dis
trict, where Tom Lawson Mccall,
a grandson of the one-time Gov
ernor of Massachusetts,, Sam
Mccall, is the Republican candi-
date for Representative against
Mrs. Edith Green, school
teacher. Mrs. Green ran for
secretary of state at the last
election fro that office. but was
defeated. She is popular, how
ever, and an active campaigner.
Mr.. Mccall defeated Representa-
tive Angel, Republican, in the
primaries this year. He was for
merly an administrative assistant
to Mr.. Mckay when the latter
was Governor. Both the Portland
Journal and the Portland Ore
gonian are supporting Mr.. Nc
Call. and so is the Oregon States
I, man-although the Journal and
the Statesman supported Mrs.
Green for Secretary of State in
1852. The Journal as well, as
the Oregonian this year are
also supporting Senator Gordon
against Mr.. Neuberger. In 1852,
the Journal was for Adlai
Stevenson.
The Democrats are making a
bid, also for the I'd congress
sional district, which Senator
Morse thinks they will carry as
we'll as the Sd district. The
other two districts are regarded
as safely Republican.

gon is about 10000 in excess of
Democratic-although in popu-
louS Multnomah County port
landD, which constitutes the
the I'd congressional district, the
Democratic registration exceeds
Republican by about 10000. One
prominent Republican here in
sists that Senator Gordon will be
reelected over Mr.. Neuberger by
about 10000 votes, notwithstand-
ing the activities of Senator
Morse for the Democrat. AS a
general rule, registered Repub-
licans have gone to the polls on
election day in greater numbers,
proportionately, than have the
registered Democrats. This year
every effort is being made to get
the Republicans to vote.
Mr.. Neuberger was born in
Portland and has lived in Oregon
all his life except for three years
he spent in Alaska and Yukon
while serving in the Army during
World War II. A writer and
newSpaperman, Mr.. Neuberger
has been interested in politics
long time. He is a member of
the State Senate, and his wife
Maurine a member of the State
House of Representatives. She,
like her husband, is a good cam
paigner. In the 1852 elections,
the two Neubergers polled the
largest votes ever received by any
candidates for the Legislature in
oregon history. They both rep
resent constituencies in Multno-
nah County-and the 1852 vote
was unusually large for all can
didateS.

Mr.. Neuberger and his forces
bitterly charge the Republicans
backing Senator Gordon with in

tics in the campaign. Mr.. Neu-
berger is Jewish. The Sherman

torial last March 10 which said
that Mr.. Neuberger had, up to

writer and only dabbled in poll

ALTHOUGH FARM prices nationally

unchanged. Sharp drop in hog prices
which caused the national drop was
offset in Montana by increases in prices
for beef cattle, sheep, hay chickens,
eggs and wool, according to the Mon

The all-crop index for Montana at

the June index a year ago. The food

mid-May. Wheat at $1.97, barley at 80
cents and corn at $145 per bushel
showed no change from the previous
month.
The livestock and products index was
unchanged from last month at 81, but
was one point below the June 1858
index. Beef cattle were up 80 cents dur
ing the month to $16.60 per cwt., but
calves at $3.50 per cwt. declined 20
cents. Sheep averaged 81 per cwt., up
go cents, while lambs were off so cents
to $3.50. Wool advanced cents to 81
cents per pound.
