Newly-wed Barkley, accompanied by his bride, is billed as the principal speaker and chief attraction at a Democratic lund-ralslng dinner in New York City Friday night. Barkley is an old hand at key noting party drives. He may come up with a democratic answer to the charges of Guy G. Gabrlelson, the republican national chairman, that the Truman administration is spending the country Into the kind of doubtful security given poorhouse inmates.

DOYLE'S Sales & Service Highway 99 at Garden Valley Phone 611 last night, declaring: 1 : "If we continue under the pres ent administration we are headed for a poorhouse state and, while the inmates of a poorhouse may have a certain amount of so-called security, their lot is not particu larly enviable." It was a departure by the G. O. P. leader from the "welfare state" phrase with which his par ty members have been describing what President Truman calls his "fair deal" program. In this 'battle of catch-words, some republicans were said to be lieve? that if they kept on talking about the "welfare state" in de risive terms the voters might be gin to believe they didn't have public welfare in mind. Says Idleness Fostered Gabrlelson laid down some broad charges against the Tru man administration, among them that it is fostering unemploy ment During the week ending Novem ber 12, he quoted labor depart ment figures, 1,746,200 claims for unemployment compensation were pending. He said this com pared with 865,721 such claims in the week ending Nov. 13, 1948, when a republican congress was in charge on Capitol Hill. "That Indicates the kind of se curity the Truman administration Is providing and, Ironically enough, the figures are supplied by a bureau of employment se curity," he said. Spending Flayed The republican chairman pounded away at the point that the government is spending money it doesn't have. "We are today picking the pockets of our grandchildren and great grandchildren to pay for the senseless extravagance and waste of the present administra tion," he declared. "Personally, I think we are paying a very high price to keep Pendergastism" In deep-freezers in Washington.
