school districts Monday were

county's ifive rural school board
zones, elections were scheduled
for the board.

last year to fill a vacancy, is
running for the board position

is running in Zone 2 to fill the
vacancy left by Peter Petersen
of Bethel. The remaining mem

Foreign Policy
Plank Is Major
Party Struggle
Vandenberg Stand
Defended Hotly
PHILADELPHIA (U.RI A for
eign policy plank patterned after
the Vandenberg brand of Inter
nationalism may set off the big
gest intra-party fight at the Re
publican convention.
The tip-off came Monday from
Sen. Raymond E. Baldwin of Con-,
necticut as the Republicans ham-;
mered their platform into shape. !
Baldwin frankly disagreed with
the viev of Sen. Henry Cabot
Lodge, Jr., Mass., that the pro-
posed 2400-word statement of par
ty principles is one which all ele
ments of the party can support
enthusiastically. :
Baldwin, identified with the
internationalist wing of the party,
expects trouble from the so-called !
isolationist faction on the proposed
foreign policy plank It reportedly
takes a firm stand for international
cooperation and for economic as
sistance to needy non-Communist
nations. , .
Lodge, chairman of the resolu
tions committee and of the seven
man subcommittee which drafted
the tentative platform, said it was
not a "me too" endorsement of
administration handling of foreign
affairs. He indicated that it pro
posed a firm affirmative commit
ment by the United States to as
sume and keep its world leader
ship role.
A strong undercurrent of intra
party conflict on foreign policy
burst to the surface in the last
days of the 80th Congress when
House and Senate conferees locked
in grueling tug-of-war on appro
priations for foreign aid programs.
The House finally modified its
original decision to make deep cuts
in foreign spending.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION, PHILADELPHIA, (Special)
Oregon's delegation keeps its pledge to support New York's Gov
ernor Dewey no matter how many ballots until Dewey releases
the group, it was emphasized again Monday by Phil Metschan, Port
land, chairman of the Oregon delegation.
Metschan declared if any delegate should vote otherwise until
released, he will make every effort to call a poll of the delegation
and read the pledge of each delegate made, at primary election
time. And so Oregon is thinking and working only for Dewey, these
opening days at least.
And that makes Ed Boehnke of Eugene, one of the two delegates
from Oregon's fourth congressional district, one of the busiest men
at the convention, because he is the liaison officer between the dele
gation and the Dewey headquarters.
Quite a Story
However, the Oregon delegation came in for one of the best
feature stories of the pre-convention sessions when Ted R. Gamble,
floor convention manager for Harold E. Stassen of Minnesota, was
named alternate to Tommy Luke, Portland, one of the 12 Oregon
delegates. Luke states Gamble is one of his best friends and has
done a whale of a job in helping to raise money for the Oregon
Republican Party.
The Oregon delegation holds every delegate is entitled to name
whom he pleases and that seems to be that. It is stated the appoint
ment had the approval of Herbert Brownell, Jr., top Dewey man
ager, as well as that of Raiph H. Cake, Oregon's national committee
man on the side, however.
One or two of the Oregon delegation privately admitted that
perhaps Brownell had made sort of a mistake anyway. The story
made the headlines and was quite the topic of conversation wherever
the Oregon people congregated. .
The Oregon delegation is one of the few having its own badges
of yellow and green and many courtesies are being extended to Ore
gon people by the Dewey people because of the showing Oregon made
for the New York governor in its primary election.
Daily Confabs I
The delegation has its caucus at 8 a.m. breakfasts at the Penn
Sheraton Hotel and ah Oregonians are being invited.
Congressman and Mrs. Harris Ellsworth and daughter Jane ar
rived late Sunday, to be among the observers, and Ellsworth ex
pects to be visiting soon through his district.

The measure continues present

The bill still requires President
Truman's signature before it be

Price supports are floors under
farm prices designed to prevent
farmers from losing money on
their crops. Higher support prices
mean, directly or indirectly,
higher prices to consumers.

Court Rules Unions Can Campaign
WASHINGTON (U.B The
Supreme Court Monday upheld
the Taft-Hartley law require
ment that unions file financial
statements with the govern
ment. '
WASHINGTON (P) The Su
preme Court upheld Monday a
lower court which threw out an
indictment against the CIO for
spending union money for polit
ical purposes.
But the high court emphasized
that it was not passing on con
stitutionality of the Taft-Hartley
law's ban on such spending.
The court's Judgment was
unanimous. Justice Reed de
livered the decision. Justices
Frankfurter and Rutledge wrote
concurring opinions. Justices
Black, Douglas and Murphy
joined In Rutledge's opinion.
The ruling has been awaited
anxiously by union leaders with
ambitious plans for taking part in
this year's presidential campaign.
It decided a test case created by a
deliberate violation of the law by
the CIO and CIO President
Philip Murray.
The case applied to only one
section of the act. That section
prohibits labor organizations from
contributing or spending union
funds for or against a candidate
in a federal election.
The CIO and Murray began the
and $1000 fine, and the CIO
faced a $5000 fine because of
the publication. But Federal
Judge Ben Moore, of Charles
ton, W.Va., sitting In U.8. Dis

government's charges against
them and declared the ban un
constitutional. In other court actions:

Scrap Over Platform
Is Shaping Up
By JACK BELL
CONVENTION HALL,
Philadelphia (AP) Re
publicans got their conven
tion off to a flag-waving,
band-blaring start Monday
with the battle for their pres
idential nomination still wide
open.
The first session was gav-
eled into order at 10:27 a.m.
(EST) and recessed at 11:59
A.M., until 8 p.m.
In between, there was the usual
noisy show, the songs, the ora
tors, launching one of those once-
every-four-years party conclaves.
But behind this facade two things
stood out: .
One is the general air of confi
dence that this is a Republican
year that this convention is nam
ing the next president of the
United States. The other is the
great uncertainty still among the
rank-and-file delegates as to who
that man is.
Signs of a Scrap
Signs of a scrap over the party's
platform also were cropping up.
Same Congress members, just now
getting a good look at it, were re
ported to feel a proposed foreign
policy piank is too "international
ist." So many big states are hqlding
back on commitments that it looks
line most anything can happen on
the presidential nomination.
Gov, Thomas E Dewey and
Senator A. Taft acknowledgedly
were out in front, but lacking the
votes at this time to assure, the
nomination. Each said he felt-certain
of winning.
Winner on Ninth?
So did Harold E. Stassen. Stas
sen said he would be a "strong
thlrd't-on the first ballot and' the'
winner on the ninth.
Senator Arthur A. Vandenberg's
friends were not calling their shots
in that manner. But they claimed
Vanderberg is in a good position to
step ou' toward the end and run
off with the big prize. Backers of
half a dozen others talked simi
The actual balloting will not
start before .Wednesday, or maybe
Thursday. Meantime, the GOP'I
biggest oratorical guns will be
labor the Democrats and the party
will adopt its platform.
Monday's first session was just
sort of a warm up for that .
Prayer, song and welcoming talks,
plus whamming of the Democrat
by GOP National Chairman Car
roll Reece.
The first session of the conven
tion was called to order by Wal
ter s. Hallanan of West Vir
ginia, chairman of the arrange
ments committee, at 10:27 a.m.
Most On Hand
The delegates were crammed
into seats on the convention floor
beneath scantly-filled galleries.
Each state's delegates sat beneath
red, white and blue placards bear
ing the names of the states.
It looked as though most of the
1094 delegates, or their alternates,
were on hand.
They rose and cheered when
Hallanan introduced Miss Vir
ginia Davis, Philadelphia soprano,
to sing the Star Spangled Banner,
which traditionally opens every
convention.
The Rev. Fred Pierce Corson,
Methodist bishop of Philadelphia,
led the first prayer.
Mrs. Dudley C. Hay of Michi

Republican National Committee,
read the official convention calL
