to develop the issues that
might rally Democrats against
Gov. Hatfield.
The Senate race, which
would have been a humdinger
had Gov. Hatfield chosen to
challenge Senator Morse, also
is regarded as rather one
sided. Republicans were cheered
by the fact that an obscure
crane operator took 20 per cent
Of the Democratic primary vote
from Senator Morse. They cal
culate that a similar detection
would be enough to defeat him
in November.
But on both sides Of the
political fence there is great
respect for Senator MorSe's
abilities as a campaigner. He
apparently has patched up
many of the wounds resulting
from his feuds, first, with the
late Senator Richard Neu-
berger and, more recently, with
the Oregon hackers Of Presi-
dent Kennedy.

Nor is there reason for Re-
publican optimism on the con-

prospects are the G. o. P. will
lose one of the two seats II

This district probably will
see the closest race in the

Kennedy Gains

But the economic slump APP
parently has not hurt the popu-
larity Of either the Republican
State administration or the
Democratic National admins
tration. Leaders of both parties
say Mr.. Kennedy is substan-
TALLY stronger in Oregon today
than he was two years ago,
when he lost the State to Rich
ard M. Nixon by 10000 votes.
They attribute the change
chiefly to dissipation Of the
Anti-Catholic prejudice that was
visible in the 1860 campaign.
The most significant shift
for this years election, how
ever, is the continuing increase
in the Democratic registration
edge. The Democrats now en-
Joy a 74,000-vote advantage and
expect to build it to 10000 by
election day.
The secret of Gov. Hatfield's
success is his ability to pitch
his appeal for votes across nor
NAL partisan lines. Like Gov.
Rockefeller in New York, he has
staked his political future on a
combination of liberal social
welfare policies and conserva-
tive fiscal management. So far,
it has looked like a winning
combination.
Also, like Gov. Rockefeller.
the Oregon executive has come
in for considerable criticism
from conservative Republicans
who think he is a lot too liberal
to belong in their party.
Time Controversy
His chief political problem,
however. is that hoary urban
rural argument over Daylight
Saving Time. Oregon voters
rejected Daylight Time in a
1860 referendum. Despite this,
the Governor refused to vote a
local option Daylight Time bill.
He is being blamed for the re-
sulting mess, in which Port
land and a few other cities are
operating on different clocks
than the rest of the State.
Democrats concede privately
that the Governor is fortunate
in his opponent this year. Mr..
Thornton. though a good vote
getter in past campaigns for
attorney general, is criticized
by many of his fellow partisans
as Ito weak and unaggressive"
