KING DUBLIN, Ireland to Tension gripped Ireland Monday on elec tion eve, sparked By lears tnai the outlawed Irish Republican Army (IRA) might strike a dra matic gesture of defiance. Although the campaign was the quietest since Southern Ireland's 26 counties won independence in 1922, special emergency precau tions were taken along the jittery frontier separating the republic from the six British-ruled north ern counties of Ireland. America n-born, 74-year-old Eamon de Valera, in fighting trim though nearly blind, has wound up a strong campaign to win back the premiership.

Indonesia President Ignores East Rebels JAKARTA, Indonesia UV-Rcbel leaders Monday still ruled in East Indonesia and much of Sumatra, but President Sukarno ignored them publicly.

Today OKLAHOMA CITY to - For mer American soldier Samuel Da vid Hawkins, who remained with the Red Chinese after the Korean War, was home today visiting with his mother for the first time In seven years. The slender, 29-year-old ex-GI flew here yesterday afternoon and was greeted by his mother Mrs. Carley Jones of Oklahoma City, newsmen and some 400 oth ' er persons. In a brief word to newsmen, the handsome Hawkins declared, "I personally don't count, If I can help others from the mis takes I made." Hawkins was captured by the Communists only two months aft er his 17lh birthday. He hadn't seen his mother since he was 16-year-old soldier. The crowd at Municipal Airport was generally friendly and one un identified woman made a point of shaking his hand, snying, "I'm a new friend. I am so happy you are home." M. H. Champion. Oklahoma City industrialist who financed Hawkins flight from Hong Kong quickly corraled the youth and his mother and escorted them lo ,.. his automobile. Champion has assured Hawkins a job. Hawkins said there were "a lot of emotional factors" Involved in his decision to remain in Chi na rather than In accept repat riation. He had said in earlier in terviews that he was afraid of federal government action against him because of his activity In his prisoner of war camp. He explained that he had edited a camp newspaper and was con sidered a "Progressive." Hawkins left Peiping. China, last Monday. His Russian wife Tanya is still there trying to gain exit from the country to join him. They were married last June. There are 13 V. S. turncoats still in China.

The sem tem- ers say they would not take their scats in the Dail (Parliament) even If they won, as a protest against the partition of Ireland. The established political parties, though favoring uniting the coun try, have condemned the IKA s recent armed raids into Northern Ireland as a futile way of solving the problem. Six of the 19 Sinn Fein candi dates are serving jail terms for terrorism, but a strong sympathy vote for their party could have a tremendous influence on the in coming government. urday proclaimed their control over the Celebes, the Moluccas, the lesser Sundas, and others of the Spice Islands. Lt Col. Ventje Sumual, leader of the revolt, Mon day ordered all government de partments in the islands where he claims control to sever their ties with the central government in Jakarta. Sumual clamped an 8 p.m. to a.m. curfew on the islands. threatening that anyone caught breaking it might be shot on sight. He also announced he was freez ing money to avert an economic crisis during the "transitional per iod" and said he was regulating exports of rice, coffee, and oil. The situation was such that American consular officials at Singapore urged American citi zens to stay out of Indonesia "un less they are on official on urgent business. There was no apparent coordi nation between the revolts in East Indonesia and on Sumatra. It also appeared that while military men are the ostensible leaders, civilian officials in the two areas were behind it all.

S. Senate committee probe into charges of Portland racketeering. State GOP Chairman Wendell Wyatt wanted to know why Mor gan didn't testify, too, that the Teamsters Union, under attack in the hearing, made a "large" con tribution lo the campaign of Sen. Wayne Morse (D). In his testimony In the nation's capital, Morgan quoted Tom Ma- loney as saying to him that: "Paul Patterson (then Oregon's governor) is our pigeon and we don't want anybody shooting at him." Testimony has linked Ma loney with high Teamster union officials. Wyatt spoke of "contemptible attempts to tie to this scandal one of Oregon's most revered gover nors." The other GOP leaders who voiced criticism of Morgan were state Sens. Warren Gill of Lebanon and Philip Lowry of Medford and former Gov, Elmo Smith. In his testimony Morgan said that now-Gov. Robert Holmes last fall rejected a campaign offer of $10,000 from the Teamsters. For this money, he said, they wanted a man appointed to the state Liquor Control Commission. Lowry said a grand jury should investigate the matter and added: "1 am shocked that Morgan did not lay the possible commission of a crime before a district attorney or grand jury." Gill said Morgan's remarks continued to display the mental instability that has characterized his every act and pronouncement lor the past 10 years. And Smith, who succeeded Pat terson as governor and last fall was defeated by Holmes, said, "I am appalled at the vicious at tempt by Morgan to reflect on the character of a dead man , . ." 200 Plumbers Stay Off Job F.UGENE to More than JOO Willamette Valley plumbers were off the job Monday after a state wide union conference failed to discuss any ways to end the dead lock.
