Wayne Long To First
Fact Robbery Charge
PORTLAND, June 20 UP)
Wayne Long, 28, who is accused
of robbing a Portland bank and kill
ing a man within a day after he
tot out of the state penitentiary,
will be tried first for the robbery.
U.S. district Attorney Henry
Hess and Clackamas county dis
trict Attorney Leonard I. Lindas
said today the Long would go on
trial here on the federal charges
of bank robbery and assault. The
assault stems from the wounding
of one of the FBI agents who cap
tured Long just outside the First
National bank's southeast branch
Thursday.
The officials said that after that
trial, Long would be tried for
first degree murder in a Clacka
mas county court. That charge is
based on the slaying of Walter
Rucker, a Portland carpenter
found dead in the woods near Ore
gon City.
It was Rucker's truck that was
used in the hank holdup.

G. O. P. Senators, Seeking
Reelection, Agree On Issues
To Emphasize In Campaign
WASHINGTON W Republican senatorial candidates appeared
agreed their best campaign issues involve alleged Communists in
government, the Brannan farm plan, deficit spending and proposed
excise tax cuts.
These four emerged as major talking points in a survey made by
the GOP senatorial campaign committee and national chairman Guy
G. Gabrielson. The survey covered primary election results in Iowa,
South Dakota and California.
Senator Millikin of Colorado, who
heads the conference of all GOP
senators, told a reporter he will
dwell on those points in his own
campaign for re-election. He said
other Republicans whose seats are
at stake this year generally are of
the same mind.
Millikin's handling of the explo
sive Communists-in-government is
sue also may become something of
a pattern for Republicans who
aren't closely identified with the
invstigation of charges made by
Senator McCarthy (R-Wis).
In campaign speeches, Millikin
has said that while McCarthy may
not always have been as meticulous
as possible in making his charges.
; he, Millikin, is convinced the Wis
consin senator is "trying to clean
up an unwholesome mess in Wash
ington and is being obstructed in
doing it."
"Laxity" Charge Made
However, three of the 33 Repub
lican senators whose seats are at
stake this year signed the "declar
ation of conscience" prepared by
Senator Margaret Chase hmitn (K
Me). This declaration said Demo
crats were guilty of laxity toward
Communist leaks but at the same
time said "certain elements" of
the Republican party had contrib
uted recklessly to national contu
sion and fear.
The three, senators Aiken of Ver
mont, Tobey of New Hampshire
and Morse of Oregon, could be ex
pected to be somewhat more criti
cal of McCarthy's methods.
On the other hand, three Renub
lican candidates senators Cape
hart of Indiana, Young of North
Dakota and Dworshak of Idaho
oined 18 other GOP members in
demanding a judiciary committee
investigation into the Justice de
partment's handling of the Amor-
asia case.
Spending Cut Demanded
In his campaign, Hickenlonper
said ne lound a strong current ol
opposition to deficit spending, i
trend Millikin reported was run
ning in Colorado.
Millikin added that almost every
Republican senator has reported
that the people back home want a
cut in excise levies on such things
as jewelry, luggage, transportation
and other items.
Members said Rep- Case told the
group he found the people of South
Dakota of the general opinion that
too much stress is being laid in
Washington on military prepared
ness in the cold war with Russia
and not enough efforts are beine
made to reach some peace agree
ment.
Scnalor Gurney (R SD), who lost

Red Influence In Japanese Labor Unions Weakening
GENEVA '.Pi The top U.S. la-1 organized Communist minorities in
bor official in Japan says thatf"1' unions sometimes involved
Communist influence is waning in ; their organizations in "other than
Japanese unions.
Robert T. Amis, U.S. military
government director of labor in
Japan, told the 33rd international
labor conference that democratic
elements in Japan's unions now
are strong enough to resist Red at
tempts to use organized labor to
"gain political power and disrupt
economic recovery."
Although the mass of Japanese
workers never had been Commu
nist sympathizers. Amis said, well-
sionally precipitated tense situa
tions." But now, he asserted, democratic
elements have achieved "a suffi
cient majority to maintain control
of their unions."
Labor's gains and "the direction
which the labor movement is tak
ing, indicate," Amis declared,
"that Japanese labor henceforth
will go forward and will be able to
defend itself from either totalitar
ian or reactionary pressures."
