McKay Reveals Ike To Campaign Here For Fall Election y By WILLIAM WARREN ' Salem (U.R) Dwight Eisen hower has promised to carry his by capital hands Monday for his campaign personally to Oregon, Gov. Douglas McKay said here Monday after returning from the strenuous sessions at the Re publican national convention in Chicago. "The Eisenhower-for-Presi-victory' was decisive, and I am looking ahead for the Republi can party to regain control of the federal government at the November election," the gover nor said. ' ' ' Congratulated Gov. McKay was congratulated by capital hands Monday for his prominent part and the prom inent part of the Oregon dele gation, of which he was chair man, at the Chicago shindig. Gov. McKay was on several na tional TV and radio interviews and the Oregon delegation was prominently mentioned, for one thing because it was near the rostrum, and for another it was a key state in the Eisenhower movement, being solidly behind him with all its 18 votes. Gov. McKay had high praise for State Sen. William E. Walsh of Coos Bay, member of the cre dentials committee, who spoke against seating some of the ques tioned Taft delegations from the South, and other Oregon dele gates who spoke. Fan And Pan Mail The Oregon delegation re ceived a lot of fan mail during the convention and some "pan" mail. Most writers urged Eisen hower, but one who didn't sug gested, Gov. McKay said, that Oregon needs a new governor. Gov.. McKay promised, being the lifelong Republican he is: "It is my plan to do every- ! thins nnssihle for the SUCCeSS n i of the Republican party at the November election." Gov. McKay referred to Sen. Richard M. Nixon of California, the GOP nominee for vice presi dent, as a fighting campaigner who would win the confidence of the voters. 1 9txr: I t 9 N. L -it. r? , STATE LEADERS Oregon's Gov.
