English horsemen wondered
today when a horse is going to
snap the jinx that has haunted
favorites in the Cambridgeshire
Stakes for more than a quarter
of a century.-' : v
Turk's Blood, Alpenhorn and
Durante were joint favorites at
9 to 1 for Wednesday's renewal
of the historic stake, but Min
strel, a 68 to 1 shot,, emerged
the winner in a four-horse
blanket finish.
And whiit. happened to the
popular choices? Turk's Blood
fared best of the trio, gaining
fourth place, less than a length
back of the winner. But Alpen
horn and Durante wound MP far
back in the' bulky field of 36
thoroughbreds. ,
It was the 26th straight year
the favorite failed to win .the
Cambridgeshire.

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
yoUR . column of Oct. 15
charges me with voting
against passage of the bill which
passed the Oregon legislature in
1951, to prevent the" diversion
of Klamath river waters.
"This charge is a complete
falsehood, -
"House Bill 661 (the bill for
bidding diversion of the Klam
ath river) came twice to votes
on passage in the senate. The
first time it passed the Senate
by a vote of 25 to 1, and you
will find Richard L. Neuberger
among the 25 senators who
Voted FOR the bill. (Official
senate journal, 1951 legislature,
page 249.)
"After the House had agreed
to the Senate' amendments, HB
661 came before the Senate
again for repassage. It passed
the Senate 29 to 0. Once again,
you will find that Senator Rich
ard L. Neuberger voted FOR the
bill (Official senate journal,
1951, page 284.)
SO MUCH for what Neuberger
SAYS in his letter. Let's now
bring in from the record the
part HE DOESN'T MENTION.
THIS bill that sought to pre
vent theft of Southern Ore
gon's water (HB 661) was read
in-the Senate the second time
on April 14, 1951 and was re
ferred to the senate committee
on agriculture.
The majority' report of - the
senate agriculture committee
recommended that the bill DO
PASS. The minority report rec
ommended ; that it DO NOT
PASS. ,
The minority report was sign
ed by RICHARD L. NEUBERG
ER. -.
WHEN the bill came before the
Senate as a whale. SENA
TOR NEUBERGER moved to
substitute the minority (do not
ncccri nannrt nf" the committee
for the majority (do pass) report.
In the debate on tne senate
floor that followed introduction
nt tho mnrtnn nf (substitution, the
battle TO KILL HB 661 (the bill
to prevent theft of soutnern
Oregon's water) WAS LED BY
SENATOR NEUBERGER. He
was joined by seven other sen
ators, all Democrats Senator
Tii.It Tln Ronntor Phil Brady.
Senator Russell Gardner, Sena
tor R. D. Holmes, senator j.om
Mahoney, Senator Ben Musa and
Senator Manley J. Wilson.
rpHEY'VE lost their fight to
kill HB 861 by tne pariimem
ary device of a motion to sub
stitute the minority report of
the committee for the majority
report. .. ..
tvim .Canata vote on the motion
of substitution was heavily
AGAINST IT.
All this Is fully set forth In
the Senate journal for the ses
sion of 1951.'
T
iHIS is the point:
T 4h. mntarifv renort of the
senate agriculture committee
(for which Neuberger fought
and voted) had been adopted by
the Oregon Senate as a substi
tute for the majority report,
House Bill 661 (to save South
ern Oregon's water) WOULD
HAVE BEEN AS DEAD AS A
DODO. "
Sn vnn It was Neuberger
himself' who wanted to kill our
Cock Robin, and if his llgnt on
tha Sfln.tff flnnr tn substitute his
minority DO NOT PASS report
for the majority uo rnoa re
port had succeeded he WOULD
have killed Cock Robin.
When the Senate ss a whole
voted decisively against his mo
nf .iih.tif tition he knew he
was beaten and on the final vote
he threw in the tail with the
hide and voted for the bill as
AA ovnrvnnn liu. The final VOte
was unanimous for the bill. ,
I'VE gone Into this matter In
mnslrierable detail because
iris letter of Neuberger's is a
striking example of the shifty
tactics he has employed through
out his campaign.
Frnm th vprv beginning, he
has been loose and liberal with
words and reckless with facts.
An estimated 18,000,000 -non-farm
families in the U. S. that
own their homes today are com
pared with only about 3.9 mil
lion In 1900.
