Mountain Area Holds Key to Senate Control DENVER, Oct. 27 -(-Control of the United States senate may hinge upon five races in the sparsely-peopled Rocky Mountain re gion. Probably less than a million and a half votes will be cast in all five contests, and only half that total in the three "hottest -- in Montana, New Mexico and Wyoming. Three of the five regional sen . ate seats at issue Nov. 2. are held by democrats - - those in Montana. New Mexico and Colorado. Repub licans" fill those in Idaho and Wy oming. Utah and Nevada senators terms do not expire this year. Importance of the seats, in a senate almost certain to be close ly divided, has all but elbowed ; into the background the tussle for the' region's 28 electoral votes for president. Republicans are driving especi ally hard against Sen. James: E. Murray, new dealer, in Montana. Opposing him is a political new comer Tom J. Davis, once presi dent of Rotary International. Davi.- has r;.Iled for sweeping reds out of Washingtor. for ruts, in spending hn'd has criticized the nation's foreign policy. Murray., a senator sinc e 1934. is sponsor ' of the Missouri valley authority ' plan. N;ition;il democratic leaders fuve praised him to the state's qiiarter-mi'Iion voters. Republicans also are pounding j away in New Mexico, where the democratic senatorial nominee is ; Clinton P. Anderson, until re- j cently secretary of agriculture. The GOP candidate is a one-; time secretary , of war. Patrick J. j Hurley. Hurley was squeezed out In a similar 1946 race by Sen. ! Dennis Chaves by 4,000 votes. The winner will succeed demo- j erat Carl Hatch, who is retiring. Keeiection of republican Henry C. Dworshak to the senate from Idaho is claimed by Ezra Hin shaw. GOP state chairman, bv 40,000. Democratic Chairman Ed Brennan counters. "We're a long way from licked. Various party factions have gotten together." The democratic nominee is Bert H; Miller, of supreme court jus tice. Republicans boast Thomas E. Dewey will sweep the region for president, even though all the states except Colorado and Wyo ming went for Roosevelt in 1944. Democrats profess to see a trend toward President Truman, par ticularly in farm districts. Lincoln Community Club Meeting Held LINCOLN Mrs. T. L.

Oct. 28 -(JP)-The United States today halted most of its remaining program of Marshall plan gifts to Europe un til nine European countries sign up for repayable loans. This pressure move came sim ultaneously with a state depart ment announcement that France and Britain have agreed with the United States, at this country's request, to suspend the removal of about 300 industrial plants from western Germany as war repa rations. The economic cooperation ad ministration took the first action and instigated the second. Both were interpreted as efforts to shape the European recovery ef fort on lines deemed by this country to be most effective. Both, also, are temporary. The dismantling of the Ger man plants will continue. Acting Secretary of State Lovett told a news conference. But It will be done in such a way, he said, that any plant can be reassembled af ter ECA picks out those which it believes would best serve the over-all European recovery by being kept in Germany. ECA's shut-down on dollar gifts may not last two weeks, a spokesman suggested, if the Euro pean powers sign promptly more Whan $500,000,000 in lean agree ments now pending. England and Iceland are not affected; they have signed. About three - fourths of U. S. public expenditures for education goes for teachers' salaries. The Statesman. Salem. Oregon. Friday.
