Taft Sees Victory in Blast At Corruption (Story also on page 1) PORTLAND (VThe Republi can Party can win the 1952 presi dential election, Sen. Robert A. Taft said Wednesday, "by an all out attack on the immorality of this administration." Speaking Wednesday night at the Civic Auditorium here, Taft said these were the issues "that demand a change:" 1. "Immoral, if not illegal, prac tices that are condoned by the highest authority." 2. . . The siren philosophy that only a totalitarian state with its planned economy and detailed controls can bring happiness . . ." 3. ". . . The hopeless mess of an administration which has no principles of foreign policy, and no consistency in administering it." A proper Republican campaign, he said, would defeat the adminis tration. He said it would require a carefully worked out organiza tion and a willingness to speak a directly on issues. "It is said that, however, wa may differ with the administra tion on domestic policy, we must not criticize its foreign policy. In the name of heaven, why not? . . Domestic policy today is dominat ed by foreign policy and failures in foreign policy lie at the basis of every sacrifice we are called upon to make, of every danger to our conomy here at home. The people, he said, want a gov eminent of integrity, concerned with restoring peace and one which will protect their liberties. Only a Republican Party victory, he concluded, will give it to them. Gov. Douglas McKay introduced Taft at the Auditorium, making no mention of Taft s candidacy. The governor is considered an Eis enhower supporter.

Steel Industry Stand Rouses Murray's Ire NEW YORK MPV-A steel indus try spokesman roused Philip Mur ray to towering rage Wednesday by calling his CIO United Steel workers "economic royalists," The label came from Bradford G. Smith of New York, a U. S. Steel Corp. economist, before a sDecial nanel of the Wage Stabili zation Board. The panel is trying to reach a compromise on a wage deadlock. Smith said steel is becoming a "push-button" industry, requiring less and less hard physical labor from its employes. He also called the union's de mand for a guaranteed annual wage a socialistic notion, the en forcement of which would be Robin Hood romanticism running riot." Murray heard Smith read his statement through. Then Murray rose to his feet, his, face red. His voice rose to a pitch of anger as he said: This piece of paper that your industry has presented here is the most reprehensible, filthy, lying, deceiving presentation that has .ev er been presented to a government agency in my lifetime.
