The silence will be nearly complete, broken only now and then by a quiet sob or two from some quarters or an occasional joyful whoop from others. Yes, the day after an election is always a let-down ... a day when most Americans look back over the fireworks of the previous few weeks with at least a semblance of logical retrospect. It is then that they ask them selves a lot of serious questions and give them selves quite a few pretty reasonable answers, too. Of course hindsight is much better than fore sight but one reason we give ourself some reason able answer that day is that the "heat" is off and we're not being bombarded with arguments and opinions and beliefs. It has occurred to us that it would be a great imulant to more logical and careful voting II tne Mrs Eugene Penland returned to Heppner Sunday from Portland where she had been spending some time. "dav" we have been talking about could come the day before election rather than the day after A one-day truce, in effect. Hindsight wouldn't be quite so good, but at least we would have one day of quiet in which to resolve all the claims and charges and promises, to sift the truth from the fiction, and to decide Issues within our own minds without the help of biased propaganda and last nil nute claims. Think we'll speak to our legislators (whoever they may be) about the idea and see if we can get it. brought before the voters.

President Eisenhower made a trip to Ore gon to request the voters to re-elect "my good friend, Senator Guy Cordon." Let's be fair. Give Ike the men he needs to carry on his progressive program. Ike got us out of war He is bringing our boys home. He has in creased social security benefits. He has re duced taxes plans further reductions through increased government efficiency. More jobs are being provided through peacetime pros perity not the blood money of a war boom. All in less than two years' time. IKE asks YOU to RE-ELECT SENATOR GUT CORDONI Senator Cordon is NOW at the peak of his usefulness to Oregon. In the Senate, and only in the Senate, does a small state like Oregon have equal voice with the more popu lous states. We cannot afford to lose Oregon's only effective voice in the U. S. Senate. As chairman of the Interior Committee Senator Cordon has a key role in considera tion of western power, irrigation and flood control projects. He is a high ranking mem ber of the appropriations committee, chair man of subcommittee on interior appropria tions, member of the subcommittee on rivers and harbors and member of the joint commit tee on atomic energy. Since 1946 Senator Cordon has increased the funds for federal power projects in this area from 4.7 to 27.5. Nearly one dollar out of every three now comes to the Pacific Northwest due to Cordon's efforts. A VOTE FOR SENATOR CORDON Ii a volt for EISENHOWER'S PARTNERSHIP PLAN creating payrolls and prosperity NOW by encourag ing the development of hydro-electric power through EVERY source Federal, Private and Public. MORE dams for MORE power for MORE jobs. We need them all! SENATOR CORDON is hard working, effective, respected and admired by both Democrats and Republicans. That is why he is able to do so much for Oregon. You can hav CONFI DENCE In Cordon I Voto for a man yog can trust! Cordon's opponent, the ambitious journal ist, has shown by every action, by every writ ing, by every speech that he would knife the Eisenhower program at each opportunity. He is for greater government expenditures which means higher taxes. He is for greater centralization of government which means less individual liberty. Cordon's opponent would have no stand ing, no seniority; just another useless vote. He has shown by his absences from vital roll call votes in the State Senate more than 300 absences in three years that he does not have a deep concern for representing the people. One of the three worst senators in attendance at the 1953 session, Senator Cor don's opponent has demonstrated that he is a lone wolf, not interested in team play. This Portland writer is for federal-power-or-nothing. This philosophy would leave us just that nothing. Senator Cordon's opponent admitted in a letter to the Oregonion April, 1951, that "Pol itics with me is strictly a sideline." He said he was "primarily interested in writing and journalism." And he has admitted that he wants to go to the United States Senate to get material for book. Of what value is this to Oregon? BEFORE you believe campaign charges by CORDON'S opponent a self-confessed po Utical prevaricator read what he wrote about himself in political campaign in 1947: "As long as the business of rounding up votes dominated my thoughts . . . TRUTH became NOT THE SOLE TEST. And I was seek- ; ing only minor office . , . what if I had ; glimpsed ahead the prosect of a United ; States Senatorship?" x mi mum m UNITED STATES iii SENATOR CORDON FOR V. i. SiNAIOR COMMITTtt, W.
