In the modern series, the
democrats have it two games to
one. . ....
But we've got 'em tnis uine,
said the seamster congressman.
"Of course, I'll be on second
base. We've got Bob Corbett of
Pennsylvania, Senator Cain of
Washington and a few others
who can Ditch. On the catching
end, we'll have Rep. Saylor ol
Pennsylvania, wno was eiecieu
in a special election last fall. We
don't often take on a rookie, but
this time we guess we'd better."
Saylor s eight-year-oia Doy,
John, cleaned his old mans
plow, as they say in Missouri, by
remarking:
They must be preuy nara up
for catchers."
GOP Has Good Chance
Anvhow. the republicans Winn
they have a good chance.
Rep. Oren Harris of Arkansas
is the manager of the democratic
team. He's a tough man to con
tact. Most likely he'll turn you

"We'll be so far ahead by the

Oren, "that the second team can

Bishop's only comment on
this was that his second team
has won once.
The star really puts on a nice
show.
Marine Band On Hand
Th murine band is there.

There are congressmen. Con

The promoters have tried for
three vears, since the congress

the war, to get the president to
come out and throw tne nrsi
ball.
The president never has.
But Chief Justice Fred M. Vin
son of the supreme court is right
there.
He's a right-hander. And he
does a fine Job, too. Last year
he knocked off a photographer

Nuclear Fission
Research Could '
Prevent Conflicts
Chevenne. Wyo.. May 18 (U.R)
The public Information chief of
the atomic energy commission
said today research in nuclear
fission would bet used to pre
vent future wars.
Shelby Thompson, a former
Cheyenne newspaper reporter,
said the nation s $4 billion pro
gram would develop peace
time uses of atomic energy far
outweighing the A-bomb in im
portance.
He said research in agriculture
alone could solve one of the
basic causes of war by increas
ing the production of food.
"There are an amazing num
ber of constructive uses of
atomic energy being made,"
made," Thompson said.
"Through the use of radio-ac
tive carbons, scientists hope to
solve the mystery of how plants
take carbon dioxide and con
vert It into the starches we de
Denl on for food."
The AEC public relations
chief said the solution would al
low the United States to control
the growth rate of foods or syn
thesize food plants.
Examples Cited
He also cited examples of
the use of atomic energy in med
ical and industrial research.
Thompson said atomic weap
ons were being produced on
Local Offices Hold
Responsibility for
Out of Work Fraud
Salem, Ore., May 18 (U.R)
Local offices must take a large
share of the responsibility for
detecting fraud and misrepre
sentation by claimants, Don L.
Baker of the central office staff
of the state unemployment com
pensation commission told a con
ference of employment special
ists here today.
"We can audit wage records
and claims and check other
sources of information," he said,
"but the interviewer at the
claims desk has the best chance
to detect possible fraud. If a
claimant has outside earnings or
is self-employed or otherwise in
eligible for benefits, it must be
uncovered in the community
where he lives."
In State Custody
Baker disclosed that one
claimant now is in state custody
after being convicted of drawing
industrial accident and unem
ployment checks for the same
week. He said several other cases
are in the hands of authorities.
However, it was brought out
that fraud is rare in the unem
ployment compensation setup
and was found in less than one
tenth of one per cent of the
140,000 claims filed this year.
Of $25,109 set up as overpay
ments to claimants found in
eligible for benefits during the
first quarter of this year, $19,
033 was recovered either in cash
or by offset and more will be
collected later.
Conference Closes
The three-way conference of
local managers, farm placement
representatives, employment dep
uties and central staff men
closes today.
Late Tuesday the conferees
heard an informal talk by Gov.
Douglas McKay, who said the
emphasis should be placed on
developing more jobs as the an
swer to immigration and unem
ployment problems, and the
payment of benefits should be
secondary to the objective of
finding more employment.

JUDGE ROBERT W. SAWYER,
Eminent Editor of Bend Bulletin Tells Why
HE IS FOR DAVE HOOVER
DAVE HOOVER
DAVE HOOVER is a red-bloodtd, grass
roots American. A veteran of World War I
(his opponent haa never been in uniform)
Hoover can be counted on to fight for the
freedom of the America we know and love.
HOOVER'S legal training and his law en
forcement background will enable him to
cope successfully in the U. S. Senate with
the Communist menace to the U. S. A.
HOOVER'S stand on Communists and fellow-travelers
is clearly outllined in his
statement in the Official Voter's Tamphlet
HOOVER has pledged to ELIMINATE
COMMUNISTS AND SOCIALISTS
FROM PUBLIC POSITIONS.
HOOVER has pledged to STOP SQUAND
ERING AMERICAN DOLLARS ON SOC
IALISTIC l-OKICIGN GOVERNMENTS.
HOOVER is opposed to the importation of
foreinn "isms" uiuler any tume and from
any source.
HOOVER is auaitut the further extension
of Federal Bureaucracy with its dictatorial
powers over the lives of the people.
HOOVER recoRtiiies that government has
nothing to GIVE TO THE PEOPLE ex
cept that which it has FIRST TAKEN
AWAY FROM THE PEOPLE.
HOOVER favors the protection and pres
ervation of FREE ENTERPRISE hecause
only through FREE ENTERTSISE will the
people remain free. --
HOVER IS t REAL REPUBLICAN snd
A REAL AMERICAN.
In his talk here Wednesday night Senatof
Morse, so we are told, made several refer
ences to this newspaper. We do not have the
quotations but we understand that his re
marks were not of a complimentary nature.
He tied us, as we have it, to what he has
called the smear campaign being waged
against him.
What we have been told of the candidate's
remarks makes it clear that, as the vernacu
lar puts it, he can dish it out but he cannot
take it.Time was when Senator Morse on the
floor of the U. S. Senate spoke of the editor
of this newspaper as "one of the great editors
of the west." That was when we were for
him. Now that we are agninst him he has
dropped us from the exalted status of that
one-time distinction.
We think that neither one of us has chang
ed. Morse is what he has always been. We
arc not one of the great editors. We have
simply changed our opinion of the candidate
and so have fallen in his esteem.
We are not seeking the nomination for
anything. Wayne Morse is and, therefore,
his record in the senate is proper matter
for discussion. If the presentation of that
record is a smear, the smear is of colors that
he has compounded.
The objection that so many have to Morse
has developed out of the fact that it is so
difficult to know just where he stands on
so many subjects. A friend who heard him
here on Wednesday said that Morse talked
for two and a half hours and in that period
so qualified every statement that listeners
were left in state of complete uncertainty.
The little circular being distributed on
Morse's behalf carries striking evidence of
this nature. On one page three paragraphs
outlining the Morse position on three sub
jects appear. One is on labor and it is stated
that Morse condemned the Taft-Hartley act
BUT, that he has denounced socialized medi
cine BUT and tha,t he has opposed the CVA
BUT. That is always the way it goes. Morse is
for or against BUT. And he will write you five
pages in explanation. (In each case our em
phasis.)
This same circular carries a display .line
"Principle Above Politics." Nevertheless, it
is interesting to observe, in his newspaper ad
vertising Morse goes all out for political party
indorsement.
Another test of the Morse record is found in
an examination of what he has done for the
state he represents. Make the examination and
you come up with a zero. We do not refer to
appropriations or pork. We are thinking about
Oregon's forestry, her reclamation, soil con
servation, flood control, land use and power
issues and problems. What has Morse done on
these?
Morse qffers statistics on his voting record.
They are meaningless without an examination
of the issues. On most of the important issues
on which there was a party division Morse
voted anti-Republican. It was his principle
above politics, we suppose, that led him to vote
for the confirmation of Henry Wallace when
most Republican senators voted against.
Only last month Morse voted to attach H. R.
5472 the outrageous reclamation amendment
that Senator Cordon worked so hard to de
feat and did defc-it. The best opinion is that
this amendment would have, in effect, set up a
CVA. Why did not Senator Morse support his
Oregon colleague?
A few weeks ago we explained how com
pletely we became sold on Morse six years
ago. We explained how our feeling for him
slowly eroded. Now we feel that we were, in
deed, sold. That is why we cannot now sup
port him. That is why we are for Dave Hoover.
ELECT rA REAL REPUBLICAN A REAL AMERICAN
Official Records Show That
Morse Has Voted Against
His Party 71 of the Time
Here's proof of that statement from
The Oregonian, Nov. 20, 1949, in an
authoritative article by Steffan And
rews ot the North American News
paper Alliance.
"Behind the scenes, White House
political advisers are working on Re
publican Senator Wayne Morse to get
him to run on the Democratic ticket.
The Oregon Senator is finishing his
first term and will be up for re-elect-tion
next year.
The idea of getting Morse to switch
his party affiliation seems quite logical
to the White House bigwigs.
Here's Why: Official Statistics show
that in the last session MORSE VOT
ED with his party only 29 per cent of
the time!"
Question Is Who Was It?
ABORD TRUMAN SPEC
IAL, May 11, Who was Presi
dent Truman talking about when
he said at La Grande Wednes
day: "I know that the people of
your state, while some of them
call themselves Republicans,
they usually vote with the Demo
crats on every issue that counts.
And I appreciate that very much
I appreciate that very much."
Oregon Journal May 11, 1950
If you have any doubts WHO the
President meant, read what Doris
Fleeson said in her political column
in The Oregonian, May 13, 1 950,
writing about 1 rumnn's trip to Ore
gon: "THE PRESIDENT SPOKE
WARMLY OF MORSE AND
ALSO PRAISED OREGON RE
PUBLICANS WHO SO OFTEN
VOTE WITH THE DEMO
CRATS. HE SAID HE AP
PRECIATED IT."
The Democrats Have NO
Effective Opposition to
Offer Next November
According to The Oregonian. "Ho
ward Latourette, the probable Demo
cratic nominee (for U.S. Senator) is
a survival of the Democratic past
without standing in the Fair Deal."
Dr. Louis Wood, the other candidate
for U. S. Senator on the Democratic
ticket, is i retired college professor.
It is obvious that neither of these
gentlemen will be able to offer more
than token resistance in November
to the successful Republican nominee.
