Oregon Looks Safe For Ike, Editors Say (Continued from Page One) liminary state registration figures show that the Democrats have gained more voters than the Re publicans in several counties since last May, when the primary elec tion was held. Democratic leaders contend that fact is significant, but the Repub licans argue that Oregon voters are more independent than the voters of most states, and that they have considerable Democratic support anyway. The registration total will be the largest in history. In Crook County, the stale's bell wether county which has followed the national trend ever since Wil liam McKinlcy was first elected, Eisenhower is given a safe mar gin. The survey taken six weeks ago showed Stevenson well ahead. That Central Oregon county, with its voters about equally divided be tween laborers and farmers, has considerably more Democrats than Republicans. AFL Union Spilt The survey there where so many polls are being taken that the vot ers show signs of rebelling, in dicates the farmers and business men in the county's capital, Prine ville, are strong for Eisenhower. The CIO workers in the lumber industry there generally are Ste venson supporters. But AFL union men in the lumber industry are split between the two. The poll was taken during Ste venson's final Western tour. He made a brief appearance at Pen-! aieion, nis only stop in Oregon. He got a good reception in that East ern Oregon ranching community, but the effect of his stop there on Crook County and the rest of the state did not appear to be im portant, the editors reported. In 1048, Oregon went Republican by a narrow margin, being the only Western state the GOP carried.

M. L. Kumler, 4-H Agent from Sales Of Defense Bonds In Oregon Jumps 45 Perct. Oregon residents went on a "sav ing spree" last month. Purchases of series E defense bonds during September jumped 45 per cent over the same period a year ago, and reflected the highest monthly sales volume this year. State-wide series E sales amounted to $2,572,354, while Doug las County purchases totaled $6.1, 618. An additional scattering of $713,570 in series U and K bonds were purchased throughout the state. George Luoma, county defense bond chairman, said the "remark able increase of defense bond pur chases since May of this year re flects a widespread satisfaction toward the new government bonds. It indicates, loo, an increase in the growing number of payroll sav ers in industries and businesses who like to save the defense bond way." Luoma urges every industry and business in the county employing as many as 10 employees to in stall the payroll savings plan for their employees. "It is necessarry," he states, "because we must en deavor to create in people's minds sensible habits and attitudes toward money. The wealth of a nation, a regional area, and the community itself depends, in the final analysis, on the wealth of Individual families. Unless fam ilies in every community are able with the assistance of financial counselors to manage their own affairs in a sound manner, we can not expect local, state or federal governments to do so. Through the payroll savings program which emphasizes regular thrift and proper management of one's money we can help prepare fu ture generations of Americans to build for themselves their own fi nancial security and happiness," he concluded, New Glendale Plywood Plant Being Constructed By MRS.

There have been a string of second band accounts that the shapely charmer of the films and her crooner husband separated following a week-end battle at their Palm Springs home. "I have nothing whatever to say about the matter," said Ava here Tuesday when asked to comment. She was in town to leave her hand and foot prints in the cement fronting Grauman's Chinese Thea ter.
