(Special) To the Editor In your paper for Tuesday, Oct. 19, Frank Jenkins wrote a column accusing me of voting against the 1951 legisla tive bill to prevent diversion of Oregon water to California. This is an outright falsehood - done to embarrass me on the eve of election. Evidently Mr. Jenkins thought it would be too late for the facts to be disclosed before Nov. 2, 1954. I count on the fair play and alertness of the editor of the Mail-Tribune to help me set the record straight. House Bill 661, seeking to avoid the diversion of Oregon water, passed the State Senate on April 28, 1951. I am recorded as voting FOR passage of the bill. (Page 249, Official Senate Journals). On May 3, 1951, the Senate concurred in House amendments and re-passed the bill. I am re corded as voting FOR re-pass age of the bill. (Page 284, Official Senate Journals). It is true that I objected to certain phases of the bill in its original form, because I feared that they made the bill uncon stitutional. My objections in duced William E. Marsh, a Re publican and ex-President of the Senate, to move that the bill be sent to the Committee on Law. That committee, consisting of six Republicans and one Democrat, then included in the bill many of the changes which I had pro posed - in order to render it secure against attacks of uncon stitutionality in the courts. Yet Mr. Jenkins wrote in your paper the bald, flat statement that I voted against the Bill on final passage. This statement by Mr. Jenkins is a complete and utter falsehood, as the Official Senate Journal proves. In a way, it is good to have the tactics and methods of the Cordon backers revealed. They will voice any misstatement which they think they can get away with. This is of a piece with Cor don's recent claim at Coquille that he (Cordon) didn't vote for the Bricker amendment. Well, if he didn't, then neither did Bricker! Cordon and Bricker and the other Senate isolationists voted together on all six major Bricker amendment rollcalls exactly in the manner opposed by Dwight Eisenhower. Yet the Cordon bumper strips sa: "Back Ike Elect Cordon." Richard L. TJeuberger, Oregon State Senator.
