TWO THANKSGIVINGS
By CHARLES V. STANTON
Housewives making preparations for the Thanksgiving

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! The voters
seemed to agree: Pennoyer was elected,

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:

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

bureau: in 1940, the same Record :
discloses, he sent out to Washing

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.
