Staunch Republican Foes of Truman Regime Power Way to Victory in Tuesday Primaries (Br United Frwl Staunch Republican foes of the Truman administration powered their way to victory as returns from eight state primary elections were tabulated Wednesday. The most striking victory came in Wisconsin where Communist baiting Sen. Joseph McCarthy won renomination over a liberal Repub lican opponent.

Leonard Schmltt. admitted defeat with' only about one third of the state's precincts counted. The Merrill.

Tugman, managing editor of the Eugene Register-Guard, says the fight of big truckers to kill- the weight mile tax in Oregon is a fight to "kill the weight-mile tax principle in its cradle." .The cradle, he told Young Re4 puoucans oi warion county nere Tuesday night, is Oregon, the state that devised the weight-mile tax, which has been proclaimed by au thorities as the fairest and most accurate tax yet devised to get long-haul truckers to pay their fair share of highway maintenance and construction costs. Capacity Crowd ' ' Tugman told a capacity audience at the Senator hotel' that the at. tempt of the long-haul truckers ta put over a constitutional amend ment to shove their share of road maintenance and construction onto smaller truck operators and prfc vate auto owners in the first at tempt made is Oregon to write "special interest legislation" into Oregon's constitution. Tugman emphasized the impor tance of knowing that two mat ters, not one, affecting Oregon highways, are on the November general election ballot. - - One is the referral of house bill 465 increasing the' rite of weight mile taxes on trucks. The other is a constitutional amendment Ini tiated by the long-haul,' or big,' truckers to do away with Oregon s weight-mile tax and put the. burden of taxation solely on the weight of a truck or car. i ; Big to Small ; ; This would mean, Tugman said, that, (he fan- share long-haul truck era tu-e nojvaked. to poyllorthelr Use. s-ot jRcegon's .'highways would be shifted to small truck operators local delivery, farmer trucks and logging trucks and to the private auto owners, which means, every man and woman in the state who has a car registered. It is estimated that the long-haul truckers number less than a dozen. Their share of the road mainten ance and construction costs would be shifted to some 1500 other small truckers and to the state's nearly a million private auto owners un der the constiutional amendment they propose, Tugman indicated. .

This time, tho resi dents will take a little longer get ting settled, because the town's new owners, Brooks-Scanlon, Inc., arc giving it a complete face-lifting and renovation.

The town will be home for 42 families, housed In four-or-six-room units, and a number of single men, quartered in dormitories. There will be a post office, a cookhouse, a general store, a soda fountain and a church.
