' ' By HARRIS ELLSWORTH " Congressman, Fourth Oregon District WASHINGTON, Feb: 26 The news' of the death of Senator Mc Nary was a great shock. We had been hearing ' encouraging re ports which seemed to indicate a complete recovery. Then, sudden ly came this announcement with its stunning finality and subject to no revision or reconsideration. "I 'had been acquainted' with Senator McNary for many years. But It was hot until I became a member' of Oregon's delegation in congress that 1 really came to know -the senator. He was truly a great man a statesamn, amaz ingly keen In mind, kindly and good humored. ; ' i . -' The loss to Oregon and to the nation is great indeed. This would be true at any time, but now, when able' and experienced leadership is so greatly needed, the' passing of Senator McNary is-a serious blow. The senator knew "the : intricate senate rules and'was always bn hand to clar- iiy problems and straighten out tangles of procedure. His tacility for sharp and lucid exDlanati ons of complicated measures was re- marKablo. ' Leader of the reDublican mem. bers of the senate,- Senator Mc Nary also had the full confidence of members of the opposition. He was liked and admired by every nieinoer or tne senate. In fact, I that body longer McNary.

When the president sent his caustic and eritical message to congress with his vetoof the tax bill, he touched off a time bomb the explosion of - which- has doubtless been heard around the world. The congress, for the most part, is made up of red-blooded American men and women who were simply bound to resent the unwarranted attack made upon them by the chief executive. That the veto was overridden was a foregone conclusion from the mo ment the message was made pub lic. ' . ' Sensational enough of Itself the veto message precipitated high drama in the senate climaxed by the resignation of Senator Bark ley as majority leader. Yesterday and today I talked with several senators and representatives who have heretofore been ardent fol lowers of the president who say they are completely disillusioned and "washed -up".- Experienced newsmen who have been covering the news' of trie capltol for many years tell me they can see no pos sibility of t,he president patching up this break with his followers in congress.
