McKay Rests
After Rushed
Primary Race
Tirpfl Candidate Happy
Over Results of
Voting
Exhausted after a strenuous
campaign, Douglas McKav, suc
cessful Republican candidate for
United States Senator in Friday's
primary election, left early Sun
. day with Mrs. McKay for his
beach home at Neskowin.
"I expect to get a lot of sleep
and relaxation," McKay said. "I
am tired but happy over the re
sults of the primary campaign."
McKay said he would remain
at the beach for a week or 10
days at least after which he may
return to Salem and Portland to
lay plans for the fall campaign.
A large number of congratula
tory telegrams were awaiting Mc
Kay when he returned to the home
of Mrs. Lester Green, a daughter,
a home which the McKays oc
cupied prior to his appointment as
Secretary of the Interior.
The telegrams, McKay said were
from well wishers not only in
Oregon but from many points in
the nation. In addition he had
scores of telephone calls, many
of them from Washington, D. C.
McKay will oppose Wayne
Morse, democratic nominee for
re-election to his senate seat at
the general lection in November.
Rock-and-Roll
Show Picketed
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. W-Whitc
Citizens Council pickets urged
white persons to stay away from
a concert by rock-and-roll music
stars yesterday, but about 2.500
ignored the demonstration to see
the show.
The concert was presented in the
afternoon for a white audience and
at night for Negroes. Both pro
grams were heavily guarded by
police.
Some 50 to 60 pickets appeared
outside the municipal auditorium
for the show for white persons.
They were in turn picketed by
about 12 teen-age white boys. The
youths carried signs reading,
"Rock-and-roll is here to stay, and
"Three cheers for Bill Haley," a
nationally known recording artist
who was the headliner of the show.
He is white.
The demonstrators against rock-and-roll
carried printed placards
reading, "Down with be-bop,"
"Christians will not attend this
show," and "Ask your preacher
about jungle music." They didn't
picket the program for Negroes.

The infantile death rate in the United States is very
low. From 1934 to 1936 we ranked seventh in the world,
led only by New Zealand, Holland, Australia, Norway,
Switzerland, and Sweden.
Yet 70,000 infants die annually in the first month of
life, and 53,000 more from the second to the twelfth
month. How many of these precious infants might have
lived had their mothers had adequate prenatal care under
the direction of a competent physician?
It is now up to the mothers to take advantage of the
knowledge and skill of the physician during the trying
months of pregnancy. We are ready to supply the needed
dietary supplements and other medication ordered by
your physician.
