Young Liberul Seeks
Conservatives Seuf
By DoueIos McKeon
The Oregon Journal

PORTLAND-The race in Oregon
for seat in the Senate pits
liberal young author and State leg
islator wearing the Democratic label
against a conservative Republican
lawyer who has spent the last 10 of
his GA years in the Federal upper
house.
Guy Gordon, the incumbent, who
calls himself country lawyer and
retains to a considerable degree the
drawl Of his native Texas, practiced
law in the numbering agricultural
community Of Roseburg in Southern
Oregon until appointed to the Sem
ate in 1914.
At IL, Democrat Richard Neu-
berger by his books and articles has
become one of the foremost writer's
on subjects affecting the Northwest.
A State Senator since 1949, he has
been a perpetual burr under the
saddle for the predominantly Re-
publican and conservative Legisla-
ture.
Mr.. Neuberger has attacked the
partnership power program"
(Which Senator Gordon espouses)
the incumbent's championship of
the tidelands oil bill, and in gen.
eral has attempted to pin the give
away" label on his opponent.
Mr.. Gordon calls his rival a left
wlnger and favors private enterprise
wherever possible. But he says his
activities in the Senate have resulted
in an increase in the Northwest's
share of Federal dam building
money from At per cent in 1946 to
27.5 per cent in 1854.
President Eisenhower has given
Senator Gordon his blessing and has
come out fatty for the partnership
power program. Mr. Neuberger,
however, says he probably would
have supported the Presidents for
eign policy more often than Mr..
Gordon did.
All polls close at pm. but earliest
returns probably will be from rural
lie. Cordon) areas.
With about 100000 voters regis
tered, Republicans hold a Statewide
edge of 1000. The Democrats
strength is in Portland; the Repub-
hcans' is in the upstate counties.
Republicans, who now hold all
Tour House seats. are in danger of
losing the metropolitan Portland
district.
Betting on the Gordon -Neuberger
race is comparatively light. There
Is more Neuberger money than Cor
don money and Neuberger bettors
are laying 1913 on a Democratic
victory.

'OId-Timer' Seeking
To Return to Capital
By Weldon james
The louisville Courier -Journol

LOUISVILLE. - Alben Barkley,
"Mr. Democrat" in a normally DEM
ocratic State, is running a vigorous
race to unseat Republican Senator
John Sherman Cooper. Some folks
think the show of vigor by the TO-
year-old former weep" isn't needed
to defeat the 53-year-old incumbent,
But age. is one of the issues.
Mr.. Barkley has had a long grip
on Kentucky's affections. Defeated
in Democratic primary only once,
he held public Office from 1905 to
1858. His SO years in Congress in
cluded 10 as Senate majority leader.
No Republican ever beat him.
Senator Cooper. an Eisenhower
Republican popular with many
Democrats but not with all of Ken
tucky's numerous TaftiteS, won
short-term Senate elections in 1946
and 1852, but lost a regular term
bid in 1943 by $4,000 when the Tru-
man-Barkley ticket carried Ken
lucky by 125,000.
The two men were Senators to-
gether in 1918. Today MIR. Bark
ley is blasting Republican "bungling"
of foreign affairs and "unwise" de-
fense cuts. while Mr.. Cooper pushes
the G. o. P. peace" line. Both
argue about which man and which
party has done most for the farmer
and the Nations economy. But both
are regarded as remarkably similar
in ability and outlook on foreign
policy. TVA, rural electrification,
and other domestic issues close to
Kentuckians.
Republicans, however, have made
the race vital test for the Presi-
dent and his administration. It Is
an administration on which MIR.
Cooperis views 50 far have had little
influence. But Messrs. Nixon, Mar
tin and Dirksen have campaigned
for the Senator.
Democrats welcome this tighten
ing Of party lines, and say Mr..
Cooper is now uncharacteristically
captive to the "blood-and-treason"
strategy which they claim will frac-
ture Mr.. Cooper's past appeal to
many Democrats and independents.
Party strength plus his own vast
personal popularity favor Mr.. Bark
ley. Kentucky is normally Demo-
cratic by roughly 3-to-2. But Mr..
Cooper. too, is popular. the peace"
and "age" Line untested-and the

Bottle Is Joined
By Left and Right
By Ron CorIett
The ldoho Statesman

BOISE.-Idaho voters will resolve
a clash between the right and the
left as they select a United States
Senator from between conservative
incumbent Henry c. DWorshak and
archliberal Glen. Taylor.
Mr.. Taylor is the onetime cow
boy singer, who was elected to the
Senate in 1914. That is the only
general election he ever won.
Senator DWorShak is serving out
his 18th year in Congress, and his
seventh in the Senate He was de-
feated once, in 1948 when the State
elected Democrat Bert H. Miller as
Senator. When Miller died in 1949,
Mr.. Dworshak was appointed his
successor and in 1850 won election
to the remainder of the term.
The Republican Is running on his
record, which Mr.. Taylor assails. The
Democrat calls the Eisenhower ad-
ministration "the most corrupt in
history" and opposes the Nations
foreign policy just as vigorously as
in 1948, when he bolted the Demo-
cratic Party to become Henry WAL
lace's vice presidential running
mate on the Red-tinged Progressive
ticket.
President Eisenhower personally
Is not an issue. Mr.. Dworshak up
holds his own voting record rather
than the administrations program;
expounds on what he did for Idaho
Rnd points to his 100 per cent
voting record"
Mr.. Taylor's candidacy has
caused conservative Democratic
leaders to oppose him publicly.
Historically, Idaho is a conserva-
tive State in its Democracy as well
as its Republicanisna. Since 1898, it
has been more Republican than
Democrat, and went for Gen. Eisen-
hover 2 to in 1852.
Senator Dworshak's strength is in
predominantly Republican South
ern Idaho, but, oddly, he has some
strength among North Idaho's
miners, too. Mr.. Taylor's support
lies, Of course. with the extreme lib
erals and with labor.
Representative Oracle Pfost.
Democrat. is conceded reelection
in Idaho's predominantly Demo-
cratic 1st district. Representative
Hamer Bulge, Republican, is con-
sidered a sure winner in the I'd
district. wherein lies virtually all
OF the Republican strength.
There is little betting on the SEN
atorial race. One Idaho Industrial
ist. q Democrat. has wagered heav-
lily on Dworshak to win easily, but
Democrats are counting on what
they call "the trend" to carry them
to victory.

Segregation Issue
Danger to 6. O. P.
By Richord |. Rinord
The Wilmington Journal

WILMINGTON. - In Delaware
two members Of Congress are locked
In a close fight for the Senate seat
now held by j. Allen Frear. jr. The
Democratic incumbent is faced by
Representative Herbert B. Warbur-
ton, Delaware's only member of the
lower house Both are ending their
first terms in Congress.
Senator Frear is standing on his
record, an ultra conservative one,
and has done little campaigning.
He has displeased labor, but Is well
liked by the farmer, businessman
and white-collar worker.
There is little difference in the
two candidates platforms except
that Mr.. Warhurton appeals for
support of President Eisenhower,
and points to Senate organization
in January as all-important to Ike
and the G. o. P.
The segregation issue will hurt
the Republicans. Anti-integration-
lists blame the G.. o. P. State admin
istration for trouble which fared in
ouSS6S NOuIlGy. TIU-SGSIeSdIIOillStS
also blame the Republicans for not
moving more quickly against Bryant
BoWles, president of the National
Association for the Advancement of
White People" who invaded Milford
and made inf1ammatory speeches
which led to the temporary closing
of the high school there and the
eventual shifting of 10 Negro stu
dents tc Negro school.
A total of 159.250 are eligible to
vote. Two years ago 1894 cast
ballots in the presidential election.
To succeed Mr.. Warburton in the
House, Mrs. Lillian I. Martin, Re
publican. is heavily favored to de-
feat Harris B. Mcdowell, former
Democratic State chairman.
This election can scarcely be
called test of Eisenhower strength,
although the President stopped here
Friday on his airplane trip and
made a plea for Mr. Warburton.
Only if Warburton is beaten badly
might the result be called a trend
against Ike.
Betting odds favor Senator Frear,
6-5.
Evening star., 1954-10-31

flying visit of the President-are
factors to consider.
If early returns on Tuesday from
Louisville-the Sd district-or from
the Republican 9th indicate a close
race, Mr.. Cooper will be swamped
Statewide. Conversely, Cooper
runaway in the Sd and 9th would
portend another Cooper miracle.
Professional bookies in sporting
minded Louisville say there is no
Cooper money" to be had. But
amateurs are happily betting on
such disparate propositions as 100.-
900 majority for Barkley to $500 for
Cooper.

1t is theme which emphasizes
the fact that the YWCA is a per-

Through the years it has lived and
