A CLOSET TO HELP
Designing ideas step up the
good looks of home and come in
especially handy at making a
dollar do double duty. But how
about using design ideas to help
with the housekeeping? You'll
sea how they can if you tackle
a closet design-wise. The mo
ment a closet sprouts shelves
that fit what you want to keep
there it becomes a helper and
time saver. It does wonders at
keeping things neatly in place,
compactly together and readily
at hand. The broom closet, for
instance, where so much room
is often wasted before redesign.
The big flat items, such as
broom, mops and the ironing
board can't use all the width and
depth of the closet but shelves,
and many of them, can. Make
the shelves shallow enough so
another tier of shelves can go
on the door. Thus more supplies
sit on the front line for easy
reaching instead of hiding far
back.

Deputy Sheriff Turned Farmer
Challenges Morse in GOP Race
By Vaul W. Harvey. Jr.
Associated Press Correspondent
A former deputy sheriff turned dairy farmer is challenging the
republicanism of Senator Wayne L. Morse in this state where a demo
crat has not been elected to the senate since 1914.
Morse's friends say he will win renomination in the May 19
primary, but not without a fight. I ! !
The senator, who has a near perfect pro-administration voting
record according to , uicj stand
ards, has made periodic trips
back home to campaign. He will
return from Washington some
time early next month to rally his
supporters. '
All the issues that ordinarily
would arise in a republican
democrat conteset are being rais
ed by his republican opposition;
such as socialism, communism and j
government spending.
Heavy Majority I
Morse is seeking a second term
in November after winning the
1944 election by nearly 100,000
votes. Before going to the senate
he was dean of the University of
Oregon 1 law school and public
member of the National War La
bor board in Washington.
His chief opponent is David L
Hoover, 52-year-old dairy farmer.
A second challenger is John
McBride, a Portlander who advo
cates "sound money" and the pro
tective tariff. McBride, who has
not yet campaigned, is a former
secretary to Rep. White (D-Ida-I
ho) and one-time clerk to two
house committees in Washington,
where he has spent the last seven
years.
Neither Well Known
Neither Hoover nor McBride is
well known over the state.
Hoover, who is credited with a
"Will Rogers type of humor" and
a good radio voice, shies away
from interviews and bars quest
ions from his audiences. He owns
a farm on Deadwood creek in the
mountains of Lane county, Mor
se's home county. He moved there
10 years ago from Los Angeles
where he was a deputy sheriff.
Hoover says Morse is a bad re
publican and should start his
own third party. He accuses
Morse of being a socialist ar.
says Oregon should elect a senator
who will fight communism.
Morse, a noted horseman, is
riding with the slogan "principle
above politics." He denies he is a
socialist and asserts he is a lib
eral republican trying to carry
out the 1948 platform of his party.
His campaign committee de
scribes him as an advocate of "the
sane liberalism of Lincoln. It
says he wants to corect social and

Silverton Meet
To Consider
Water Problem
SILVERTON, April 9 A special
meeting to consider Silverton wa
ter problems will be held tonight
by the city council and planning
commission at 8:30 pjn. in city
hall here.
A report of a 12-man citizen's
committee will be received and
studied. The committee, appoint
ed by Mayor. Errol Ross and the
council, favors reconstruction of
the Abiqua creek dam washed out
in 1942.
The dam was located about four
miles east of Silverton. Before it
washed away the city obtained
its water supply from there; Since
1942 it has used pumps in the
creek, but this method has proved
costly, it was said.
