'Alarms' State Employes G
Turnover
In State
He! d Cited
1
The Oregon State Employes as
sociation, in a letter sent to Gov.
John H. Hall 'Saturday, said state
employes are alarmed because of
a recent newspaper item quoting
the state budget director as say
ing it may be necessary to reject
the wage and salary schedule re
commended by the state civil ser
vice commission because of adop
tion of the old age pension mea
sure. "Our association appreciates
your desire and efforts to provide
adequate salaries for state em
ployes and also realizes that any
attempt to reduce salaries at this
time would be contrary to your
wishes and disastrous to the state
service," the letter read.
The letter said most state ag
encies are finding it difficult and
in some instances impossible to
meet their obligations to the pub
lic because of inadequate staffs.
The letter included figures from
the civil service commission show
ing that 4,492 classified employes
have terminated their services
with the state since Jan. 1, 1948.
"The loss to the' state due to this
tremendous turnover in personnel,
if figured in money, efficiency and
service is staggering," the letter
continued. "Employes who have
chosen to remain in state service
have for the past several years
been working for salaries 20 per
cent under those paid by private1
industry."
The letter said this year's $20
per month cost of living adjust
ment brought some relief but
stressed that the cost of living has
continued to increase.
"Faced with these discouraging
facts there is little chance for
trained and experienced personnel
but to seek employment where
wages are more in line with a de
cent standard of living," the let
ter said.
Bookmaking
Racing Pool
Law Invalid
PORTLAND. Nov. 6 -OP) -Port
land's city ordinance against
bookmaking and racing pools was
held invalid today by three cir
cuit court Judges.
The Judges ruled that the or
dinance conflicts with the state
racing act. The city regulation
prohibits bookmaking except in
the enclosure of a state-licensed
racing meet, whereas the state
law does not restrict such activi
ties to the exact place where the
race is run.
They declared that under the
1933 state racing act. pool-sell
ing, bookmaking, and wagering
on races where the pari-mutuel
system of betting is employed
can no longer be deemed pub
lic nuisances and a crime under
the law."
They added that the question
of whether such activities are in
the public interest is a matter
for the legislature, not the courts,
to decide.
City officials said they would
study the opinion before decid-
ng what action to take. The rul
ing came on a case brought by
the city against A. J. Duntley.
owner of the Santa Anita turf
exchange club.
The opinion -was, by Judges
James R. Bain, Walter L. Tooze
and Ashby C. Dickson.

Truman Upsets Traditional Maxims
Dewey Blames GOP Overconfidence
Five Straight
Wins Sets New
Party Record
By D. Harold Oliver
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6 -V
President Truman upset many old
political maxims with his victory
over Gov. Dewey of New York.
He tossed into the ash can so
many traditional factors that ap
peared to favor his opponent that
the "experts" are still looking for
the whys and wherefors,
For example he won: A fifth
straight time for the democrats, the
first time any party had achieved
this since the Civil war
And he won despite the follow
ing factors:
1. From the Civil war until now.
the party winning an off-year con
gressional election always went on
to win the presidency two years
later. The GOP captured control of
congress in 1946.
Split Within Ranks
2. The democratic party was
split, with Henry A. Wallace win
nine more than a million votes
most of them perhaps from the
democrats, and Gov. J. Strom
Thurmond taking 38 electoral
votes for the state righters
3. The "solid south" was brok
en for the first time since 1928
when Herbert Hoover captured
five states for 62 electoral votes
4. Many city and state party
leaders, who had fought tooth and
nail against Mr. Truman s nom
ination, did little if anything to
further his campaign.
5. The vote was small. All prev
ious signs indicated the democrats
needed a large turnout 55.000,000
or so to beat Dewey. The vote
probably will be less than 50,000,-
000.
6. The democratic war chest
Wii small. None of the old regular
contributors shelled out as before.
Southern state organizations di
verted their cash to the anti Tru
man states rights candidates. The
party usually gets more than $500,
000 from the south. It received
less than $50,000 for the 1948
campaign.
Minus Big States
7. Mr. Truman triumphed with
out the electoral votes of New
York and Pennsylvania, something
no canditdate of either party had
done since Woodrow Wilson won
over Charles E. Hughes in 1916
Why did he win despite all these
impediments? That's what many
politicians are still asking them
selves. A few in the democratic
leadership figure it out this way:
He won because:
1 Of economic prosperity. Vot
ers usually let well enough alone.
They were afraid of a change,"
as one campaign leader put It.
2 He was the "underdog." A
lot of people like to help an un
derdog. One party chieftain said,
"I know a republican who voted
for Truman because . everybody
else was Jumping on the little guy.
3 Of the women's vote. This
was described as a "terrific factor
because women going to market
naturally hate high prices.
4 Of the labor vote and the
Taft-Hartley act. Most all labor
organizations went down the line
for the president, who pledged to
work for repeal of the Taft-Hartley
act.
Midwest Uprising
5 Of the farm vote uprising In
the midwest. The president won
five mid western states, including
three (Iowa, Ohio. Wisconsin)
which went for Dewey in 1944.
Thirty-five of the house seats pick
ed up by the democrats from the
republicans were in eight mid
western states. (The other gains
were: East 27 seats, far west nine,
border state seven.)
6 Of a determined drive by the
democratic national committee to
counteract the sweeping southern
revolt following the president's
nomination at Philadelphia.
7 The fight the president made
for civil rights "consolidated the
Negro vote in Illinois and .Ohio,"
this official said. "We couldn't
have won without those two
states. We also could not have
won without capturing seven of
the eleven southern states."

The GOP candidate told a news
