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.

New Cars In Use Here
On Five Postal Routes

Frazer cars, were put into oper
ation by the post office Monday
for use in five mounted routes,
Postmaster Moore Hamilton re
ported. They were furnished by Pa
cific Auto Lease corporation of
Portland, which bid in on the
contract. The postal department
is paying 80 cents an hour for
these cars against the previous
contract rate of $1. Formerly

"We feel that it's going to be
an improvement, in that they
are new cars." Hamilton said.

Foul Play Seen
In Disappearance
Pasadena, Calif. (U.R) The
wife of an American scientist,
who was engaged in secret gov
ernment research, said Monday
she feared he met with foul play
at the hands of foreign agents.
Albert Clark Reed, who
worked in secret aeronautical re
search at the California Institute
of Technology here, disappeared
from his home last Monday
morning.
His wife, Florence, told offi
cers he was to meet that day with
military authorities in connec
tion with work "so secret he
couldn't even discuss it with
me."
The day following the scien
tist's disappearance, Mrs. Reed
said she received a will in the
mail from San Bernardino,
Calif., leaving her the family
possessions.
Later, she. said, she received a
mysterious phone call from a
woman who told her Reed was
"being held for information."
The woman did not identify her
self. Federal investigators in Los
Angeles remained tight-lipped
about the case confirming only
that they had talked with Mrs.
Reed.
