STANTON Housewives making preparations for the Thanksgiving dinner cn be grateful this inn t the year J8U4. roimcs create strange situations, but in 1894 a political feud gave Oregon two Thanksgivings, doubling the work for house wives. We'll let The Orrgnn Statmniun, published by former Governor Charles A. Sprague, tell the story, as it ap peared recently on the Salem newspaper's editorial page, this column today being "lifted" from the StatrHinan: Texas is to have two Thanksgiving Days this year the extra observance, wits declare, proclaimed to give Texas a chance to be thankful they are Texans! Oregon, in 1894, had two Thanksgivings, too the re sult of gubernatorial fit of pique. Governor Sylvester I'ennoyer was always having fits of pique. He was a "character" of the first water whose idiosyncracies made his two terms in office sensational to a degree that attracted national attention and made him the central figure in Oregon politics for ten years. Of dignified bearing, with handsome beard and mus tache. Democrat Pennoyer was described as a thorough artistocrat, albeit popular as "a man of the people." H e campaigned, in 188G, on the slogan, "the masses against the classes, and upon the question of exclusion ot Chi nese from the state. His republican opponent was Colo nel Thomas Cornelius, a well-known and respected farmer whose fatal mistake was having once employed a China man to wash some shirts. I'ennoyer exploited this as "an unpardonable offense against good government and the rights of man" and undisputable evidence that Cornelius lacked sympathy for the laboring man!

Pennoyer's dim view of U. S. presidents was respon sible for Oregon's two Thanksgivings in 1894. Grover Cleveland was in the White House, then, and Pennoyer positively loathed the "Great Apostate." Oregon's gov ernor was loyal to the gold standard, for one thing; for another, he believed Cleveland had no authority to advise the state governors as to their duties in the management of the labor disorders created by Coxey's army crusade. In an eminently characteristic telegram, Pennoyer an swered Cleveland's directive as follows: Caruso could shatter a slats with : flipped the train into opposition for the return glide.

But there it another reason, jutt as good, which we can work on today, Lownthil has written a book about the Federal Bureau of In vestigation. It reveals a lifelong concentration of distate for the F. B. I. that has, according to the Congressional Record of September 1, 19.ro, cropped out a time or two prior to this recent writing effort. In the 1930 s, the j Record reveals, Ixiwonlhal di-1 reeled another attack against the bureau: in 1940, the same Record : discloses, he sent out to Washing ton newsmen an antnymous memo-1 randum "smearing" the F. B. I. I Rep. George A. Dondero (R..-, Mich.) regards Lowenthal as a man of mystery, and as a man ! dedicated to "clever, daibolical j scheming to undermine our na-' tonal security." He to character-! ired him on the floor of the House. A graduate of Harvard univer sity, lowenthal is a close friend of Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, the chaiacler witness for Alger Hiss. He also has been trotting around wilh a number of others wilh interesting records, the Congressional Record reveals. Lowenthal was a member of the national committee of the Com munist - dominated International Juridicial association, along with Lee Pressman, who recently ad mitted Communist party member ship. Ir, the same organization, he also was associated with such persons as the late Joseph Brod sky, former attorney for the Com munist party; Shad Polier, a friend of Alger Hiss; Nathan Witt, named by Piessman as another former Communist; Abraham Isserman, who was cited for contempt during the New York trial of the 11 Com munist leaders; and similarly as sorted characters. He was a member of the National Lawyers guild, which recently was labeled Communist-controlled by the House Un-American Activities committee, hven more recently, he U'aa a harlfstaoe mgiHiwr of 'the fi0ht to nrevent nassaffe of the Mct'arran-Mundt-Nixon s u b versive control law. lie al.o was listed as one of the endorsers of the Conference of the American Committee for the Protection of Foreign-born, cited by the Attorney General as subversive. Among Lowenthal's other friends is Carol Weiss King, consistent spokesman tor, and defender of, Keds headed for jail. She once was a law cleric in Lowenthal's office. He also, on various occasions, has worked in close conjunction with Thomas I. Emerson, Yale 1 a w school professor and president ot the National Lawyers guild; Abe Fortas, a friend of Owen Latti more; and Charles Kramer and David Wahl, both of whom have been accused of having been Com munists. lowenthal has had some other interesting characters working around him at one time or an other. One of the most noted is George Wheeler, the turn-coat cit izen who not long ago denounced the U. S. and fled to Communist Germany where he issued almost daily communiques castigating America. Wheeler was one of Low enthal's assistants in Germany when the latter was assigned there as an advisor to General Lucius Clay. Mr. Truman's pet advisor has another friend. Al Bernstein, an official of the United Public Work I ers of America. Dondero, in the I Congressional Record, says that I Bernstein is known to he a secret member of the Communist party. Bernstein worked for Lowenthal . at one time. i Another Lowenthal protege was Allan Rosenberg. Rosenberg was a buddy of John Abt. who declines to answer when asked about his membership in the Communist cell in the Department of Agricul ture under Henry Wallace. Rosen berg Inured prominently in the 1!M7 grand jury investigation of spy activites in Washngton. Accord ing to the Congressional Record, I Rosenberg was charged with fur nishing information to a confessed Soviet agent. lowenthal hovered over Rosenberg when the latter was making rapid strides as an official in the Foreign Economic administration. i Few people have ever seen Low enthal's picture, although in fair- he doesn't skulk down alleys when traveling between New York and Washington. He has just never been in the limelight for one reason or another, and is seldom teen at Washington cocktail parties. He was born in Minneapolis, Minn., and after graduation from Har- j vard law school had a series of I jobs in law offices in New York ! before migrating lo Washington in j 1917. Finally latchng onto a job wnn oen. ciay in post-war Ger ! many as advisor on the disposal : oi property confiscated by t h ; Nazis. j Just what point thore is in Low- entnal s dislike lor the F. B. I. js 1 bit moot at the moment. Hit book ' is not a blood-and-thunder recita of F. B. I. cases, but a dull docu mentation instead. It is heavy go ing, the type that usually winds up in libraries on the reference book shelves. Maybe that is just where he wants it to go; then it ' will be a sourc? of information i for the young minds of America. Next we can tale up a few chap ters in the book.
