Moderate Vote
Due in Oregon

| PORTLAND, Greg, May II
up. = Election officials today
predicted only a moderate vote
in Oregon's primary tomorrow
despite extra lively contests in
the Democratic presidential and
Republican senatorial races.
Both Adlai Stevenson and Sen
ator Estes Kefauver of Tennes-
see entered the State as write-in
candidates.
The winner will walk off with
16 delegates to the Democratic
National Convention. More than
that, he is expected to gain q
psychological lift for more i'm
portant preferential primaries in
Florida and California.
President Eisenhower is I'M
challenged for Oregon's 16 Re-
publican delegates. A Portland
attorney, John c. Veatch II, sent
out letters yesterday urging Re-
publicans to write in the name
of former Colorado Gov. Dan
Thornton for Vice President.
Republicans will be attracted
Ito the polls mainly by an I'M
usually active fight for the party
nomination to oppose Democratic
Senator Wayne Morse's re-elec-
ton in the fall.
It's between former Secretary
of the Interior Douglas C. Nc
Kay, who resigned his Cabinet
job to run, and Phil Hitchcock,
Portland church leader and for
mer State Senator.

which left Sunny Point, N. c.,
aboard the freighter Monterey
late yesterday. carrying what the
State Department said was less
than a million dollars worth of
goods for Saudi Arabia.
Reported Mainly Ammunition
The Defense Department said
the shipment comprised mainly
ammunition and spare parts and
that the sale was approved last
August Is along with an order
for 18 MAJ light tanks, whose
shipment in February stirred a
furore.
The new shipment was con-
firmed by officials after the New
York Post reported yesterday
that new cargo of military
goods was being loaded at the
North Carolina port. A Will

official said Sunny Point is
primarily an ammunition load
ing terminal.

ment to turbulence, we have
given it to them"
In New York Thomas K. Fin
letter, co-chairman of the New

dent Committee, said the Eisen-
hover administration should
disclose the extent of United
States arms sent to the Arab
States and any others due to
go under existing contractual
obligations"
Mr.. Finletter, former Air Force
secretary, said;
THE Eisenhower administra-
ton is firm enough in prevent
ing even the smallest amount c.
arms from going to Israel. I'M
der such circumstances what
possible justification can they
have for sending arms to the
Arabs?
II think the American people
have the right to know just
exactly how many shipments Of
arms and ammunition have gone
to the Arab States and how
many shipments are due to &C

legations.

The 18th, Terry Carpenter,

the President to win nomination
by reclamation, although he does
not think Mr.. Eisenhower should
run because he felt it might bring
his death.
The II delegates Mr.. Eisen-

his Nationwide total of pledged
and. publicly committed delegates
to 666. That is four over the
662 needed at the convention.
Before the Nebraska election
much of the interest shown -
campaigning was light and apa-

whether the normally Republi-

cross party lines.

The rural area votes statewide
ran about IS to 35 percentage
wise for Mr.. Eisenhower. So did
the city votes. That was about
the same statewide percentage

primary.
The near 2 to l Eisenhower

Weekend Accidents Claimed
Lives Of $3.50 Americans

Millions of dollars have been
spent by Federal, state and mun!-
cipal authorities in an effort to
provide better and safer roads. Ad-
ditional millions are spent by in
surance companies and other priv
ate organizations for programs of
safety education.
Nevertheless, the Weekends Of
1855 saw more persons killed and
injured on our highways than ever
before. It wasn't the fault of the
road systems; it wasn't the fault
of safety education campaigns. It
was the fault of pleasure-bent in
dividuals striving to 60 too far, too
fast, for weekend's enjoyment.
How to reduce this record total
of killed and injured What is des-
perately required is the immediate.
unceasing cooperation of every A
merican in possession of drivers
permit
An aroused awareness Of the
weekend highway peril. plus con-
tinued realization of this danger is
the only way to reduce the week
ent fatality figures for 1856.
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1956-05-18

In 1855, more than fifteen thous-
and individuals didn't return home
after the pleasures of the weekend.
According to figures recently pub
lished by the Safety Service OF The
Travellers Insurance Companies,
1870 Americans were killed in
weekend traffic accidents.
OF last years traffic fatalities,
more than one-fifth occurred on
Saturday.
The reasons for this record num-
Der of weekend highway fatalities
lie in the motoring habits of the
American public. Every highway in
the nation has its Saturday share
of that portion of America bound
and determined to arrive at its
weekend destination in time for
dinner, even if the trips last sixty
miles must be covered in an hour
flat. Too frequently, the strain and
fatigue Of distance driving are ig-
nored in anticipation of ample re-
Taxation at the journeys end.
Then, too, our highways continue
to be filled with those drivers
whose idea of relaxation is an ex-
ira drink or two "for the road"
