Seen When State Labor . Federation Refuses Back Commonwealth's Man See our Br Paul W. Ilarrey, Jr. SALEM, May 6AP) Open war- ton between the State Federation of Labor and the Oregon Common wealth Federation oyer endorsement of candidates In the primary elec tion to be held two weeka from to day highlighted political develop menu this week. The battle started when the Salem tradeg and labor council asked the Federation of Labor to support Roy R. Hewitt. Salem attorney and can dldate for the supreme court against Chief JustlM Henry J. Bean. The State Federation of Labor re torted hotly that It would not sup port Hewitt becausa he was spon sored by the Commonwealth Feder ation. It added that it would sup port Bean, a supreme court Juattce for 36 years. Barkdoor To C.I.O. The labor group said It would not b allied with the Commonwealth Federation because "It Is the back door to the C.I.O.," and pointed out that William Oreen, president of the American Federation of Labor, ad vised state labor federations not to become allied with labor's Non Partisan league, sponsored by John L. Low la, C.I.O. loader. The State Federation of Labor charged that th Commonwealth Federation haa Joined bands with Lewis' political cohorts. The Commonwealth Federation will meet In Salem Saturday and will announce lta favored candidates, the list expected to Include Henry Hess of La Orande, labor's candidate against Oov. Charlea H. Martin. Although the State Federation of Labor and the Commonwealth Fed eration are at opposite poles,, both are expected to support many of the same candidates, Including Haas and Willis Mahoney, candidate for the democratic nomination for United States senator. Beckons A. FX. Monroe Sweet! and. secretary of the Commonwealth Federation, aatd he wanted the A.F.L. to unite with his group In the support of can didates who will "support progressive policies.' adding that "reactionaries are waging one of their lat stands In Oregon." Whether the Hess forces are able to keep peace among their various supporters will be a fartor In de termining whether he or Martin will lie nominated. Ben Osborne, head of the State Federation of Labor, said In an ad dress at Marshfleld this week that Governor Martin, who haa fought labor terrorism, opposed all labor, Osborne urging the 50.000 A.FL workers In the state to vote for Heaa. After Osborne concluded, an A.F.L. worker, woarlng a Martin for gov arnor button, rebuked Osborne by saying the A. F. L. members had enough Intelligence to vote, as they saw fit. With the exception of the dmo era tic gubernatorial race, thin year's campaign has been one of th dull at In many years. The only candidates who have been making active campaigns are Governor Martin. Henry Hess and O. Henry Olecn. all democratic can didates for governor; Charles A. Sprague, Republican candidate for governor, and Willis Mahoney, Demo cratic candldnto for U. S. senator. Republican candidates who have been trying to coming the voters that the O. O. P. Is not quite dead were borne out this werk when regis tration figures showed that Oregon till Is In the Republican column by a 10.000 majority. But since pre-New Deal days In 1033, the Democrats have whittled down the Republican majority of 174.000. The highway commission's feiira of a month ago that the federal gov ernment wouldn't come through with lta 1038-41 frattrnl road aid for states apparently were Justified, be cause the com mi Ml on had no Indi cation that President Roosevelt would begin a new spending program to fight recension. The aarne day that the commission telographed Washington requesting that the 1038 and 1930 road money be allotted, the president announced In hie fireside chat that state would get Wie road money. This week the highway commission received word that the imo and 1041 funds would be considered Im mediately by the house, tf both houses pass the measures, as ex pected. It would assure Oregon of Its full share of federal road money until July 1. 1041, amounting to 3.135,000 ypsr. Although the stAte unemployment Insurance commission has paid out 3.350.000 since benefits began on January I, the com mission's reserve fund hat. decreased a net of only 900 000. The reserve fund was afl.ooo.ooo on Janunry 1. while today It was as. 100 .000. The 3.7 per cent tax on payrolls prevented the fund from shrinking at a rat equal to the amount of benefits paid. Of the 64 337 claims filed, 46.466 have been found valid.
