Morse Predicts
HST Not to Run
For Third Term
- Los Angeles (U.B Sen.
Wayne Morse, R-Ore., predicts
that President Truman will not
run for a third term and Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower will be
his successor in the White House.
Morse, a liberal Republican,
aid at a press conference here
that many GOP stalwarts said to
be pledged to Sen. Robert Taft as
the party's presidential nominee
will bolt to the Eisenhower camp
at the first opportunity.
"Most of them realize we must
win," he said, "and we can win
with Ike."
Morse said: Sen. Richard Rus
sell's announcement that he is a
candidate for the Democratic
Domination almost automatically
put President Truman out of the
running.
He said the Georgia senator's
declaration meant that "every
southern state will be pitted
against Truman in the Demo
cratic convention and thus his
goose will be cooked."
Morse said his name was put
forward as a presidential candi
date in Oregon by pro-Taft forces
attempting to divert votes from
Eisenhower, but he plans to
thwart the move by running as
a delegate at large to the GOP
convention.

kitchen and dining room, a dice

Increased NATO Aid Asked from Europe
Portland U.R) Most of the
countries' in the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization are as fi
nancially able as the United
States to put armies in the field,
Rep, Harris Ellsworth said Satur
day. The Oregon Republican said
too many people in Europe feel
that the United States and Brit
ain "somehow will take care of
things" even if European cooper
ation is curtailed.
Ellsworth said our debt was as
great as those of European coun
tries, "and we are spending a
larger proportion of our income
on arms than are most of them."
"Europeans just don't realize
that we are straining our finan
cial resources," he said. Ells
worth referred specifically to
France, where the Parliament re
jected a tax bill intended partial
ly for NATO financing.
