Senator Taft's j
Ohio Prospects
Declared Bright
By Lyle C. Wilson
(United Free 8uff Cormpondent)
Washington, Jan. 13 ilP Sen.
Robert A. Taft's 1950 political
stock is booming today on the
latest news from Ohio.
The .two democrats generally
given the best chance to defeat
him in next November's sena
torial election are out of the con
test. .
Gov. Frank J. Lausche long
since said he would run for gov
ernor again this year. Mayor
Thomas A. Burke of Cleveland
announced yesterday that he was
not a candidate for the senate.
. With those two. democratic
threats out of the way, ' many
political observers here and In
Ohio believe Taft will win easily.
Chairman William M. Boyle Jr.
of the democratic national com
mittee, however, has reported to
President Truman that Ohio dem
ocrats will elect a senator this
year. Mr. Truman told his news
conference yesterday he was glad
to hear that. But neither Boyle
nor the president has Indicated
who the democratic candidate
may be.
Fcrjjuson In FleM
The only announced democratic
candidate in the field so far Is
State auditor Joseph Ferguson.
Labor organizations are trying to
get Murray Lincoln, executive
secretary of the CIO Farm Bu
reau federation, to seek the nom
ination. Taft is confident he can
ta" itbr one.
When Taft heard of Boyle's re
port, h told questioners ho
thought he would be elected If
thP voting took place right now.
"I see no reason," he added,
"why conditions shouldn't be even
better in November."
He would not comemnt on
Burke's withdrawal statement be
yond saying the mayor was
strong In Cleveland but might not
run so well In other areas.
When Informed that Jack Kroll,
CIO political action director, be
lieved the new type of Ohio elec
tion ballot would hurt Taft's
chances in November, the sena
tor said he thought republicans
generally wouTd benefit from the
new ballot because they 'have to
appeal to the Intelligent voter."
Most of the big city organizations
which march people to the polls
already are democratic, he said.
Some bets have been made that
Taft's victory margin next No
vrrnhnr will hp larger than when
he was re-elected In 1944. That is
reasonably safe. If he wins at all
this year it scarcely could be by
a margin less than six vears ago.
1044 Margin Slim
He won in 1944 by a slim 18,000
votes out of nearly 3.000,000 casi.
His opponent then was William

pushover for top-flight opposition.
Taft s failure to swamp Pickrel
has been a blight on his record
ever since and may have smeared
him for life as a bad political
risk at least for the presidential
nomination.
The 1944 returns supported ar
guments of many republicans in
1948 that Taft was not a good
vote-getter and therefore should
not be nominated for president.
That remains one of the most
effective arguments among re
publicans against putting Taft on
the national ticket.
The senator evidently is deter
mined this time to show the
ioubters tr.at he has political sex
appeal. He undertook a two-year
preliminary campaign leading

Waters kept winning. When
they counted up the chips, the
stranger owed Waters $1,600.
"1 don't have the cash," he said,

Land Use Problems
Under Irrigation
Studied at O.S.C
A long-range study of the land
use problems on new irrigation
projects has been started by the
O. S. C. agricultural experiment
station to help in the effective
planning and development of new
irrigation areas.
The study is being conducted
on farms on the North Unit of
the Deschutes irrigation project
in Jefferson county with Dr. C.
V. Plath, associate agricultural
economist, as project leader.
Working with him is Howard A.
Osborn, graduate assistant.
Only limited information is
available at present upon which
to base recommendations for land
use and size of farms on various
grades of land under new irriga
tion projects, Dr. Plath explains.
The new study is designed to
supply this information and to
facilitate planning of new proj
ects ana to assist farmers going
onto the project in farm planning
ana operation.
The capital required to operate
farms under new irrigation proj
ects will be studied, including
such items as cost of preparing
land for use and capital needs
during the early years of farm
development.
Records of selected farms on
each of the various land classes
have been collected this fall and
will be analyzed to determine the
land use adjustments needed on
various quality soils. Year-to-vear
records from these farms will be
gathered during the next five

Many Visitors

Las Vegas, Nev. ip Approxi
mately 1,500,000 people ranging
from royalty to the man across
the street visited Hoover dam and
Lake Mead In 1949. .
The department of Interior said
the dam is among the top govern
ment parks and monuments in
popularity.
Even before the dam was com
pleted in 1936, builders had to
pull high-priced engineers off
their jobs to escort growing num
bers of sightseers and keep them
out of trouble.
The 726-foot concrete wall
dams the Colorado river to form
Lake Mead. The dam's huge gen--erators
supply much of the elec

aise the fforicljs Standard Again !
In 1950, the reasons for moving up to
Cadillac will become so great, and so mani
fold, that if you are contemplating the pur
chase of any car outside the lowest-price
field you should see the new Cadillacs first!
Cadillac's new cars will have their initial
presentation at the General Motors Mid
Ccntury Motorama at the Waldorf, in
New York from January 19th to 27th.
As soon after that as cars are available,
the new Cadillacs will be placed on display
for your inspection in this community.
In the meantime, here are some of the
things you may look forward to seeing
when America's most renowned motor car
builder unveils its new offerings for 19S0.
You will see four wholly new series of
cars all with entirely new hodies and all
so gorgeously styled that they are destined
. to change every existing idea as to how
beautiful a motor car can be.
You will see cars whose performance is
so outstanding that to drive one of them
for a single hour is to want it forever. The
advancement embraces every phase of per
formancepower, quietness, smoothness,
safety, and-handling ease. To drive one
is to get the motor car thrill of a lifetime.
You will see scores of advancements and
improvements which add to quality, en
durance, economy and dependabiLty.
And, finally, you will see all this in a car
whose lowest-priced model wi.ll actually
cost less than certain models of numerous
other makes of cars!
Yes you should see the new Cadillacs
before you act in 1950. They will not only
give you the new yardstick for motor car
quality but they will give you the new
yardstick for motor car value, as well.
It won't be long! So please stand by for
the presentation date for this community.
