Democratic Parity Mew Skaters Protest (Leaoflers Losiinig Ddl Br LYLE C. WILSON United Press Correspondent Washington (U.PJ There's thunder on the left within the Democratic Party where the or ganized New Dealers pro test that its House and Senate leader ship have lost the old time religion. This is rank ingratitude so far as Speaker Sam Rayburn i s concerned. Ljle C WOMB Mr. Sara was one of the half dozen men on Capitol Hill who breathed legislative life into the reforms, reorganizations and projects which FDR's bright youngsters conceived downtown in the years 1933-37, or, maybe, 1938. Those years were about the span of the New Deal as Mr. Roosevelt devised and effected it. War shadows were lengthen- uig in uie lauer year ana ii was not long after that that the Pres ident, himself, was the target of left wing brickbats like those now being thrown at the speaker or at Sen. Lydon Johnson (J Tex.), the competent Senate Democratic leader who was fell ed last weekend by a heart at tack. Lefties Begin to Yammer One day as the war neared and the lefties began to. yammer that FDR was ignoring reform for other things, the President read his news conference a typ-' ical Roosevelt homily. It related how the dislocation and fervers High Ghairs Wood With Plastic Troy ... $12.95 Chrome High. Chain $19.95 L2L mm adde STROLLERS -- 816.95 With Reclining Adjustable Back $19.95 PLAY PEN PADS!

Times and ills had changed, Mr. Roose velt continued, and the country by now was needing the minis trations of Dr. Win-The-War. It will take more than a sim ple statement to silence, the critics of the Rayburn-Johnson program which charts a much more conservative course for the Democratic Party in this Con gress than the left wing elements thereof would choose. The program calls on the party to go part of the way with Presi dent Eisenhower on many an is sue, being careful, always, to tag all good works with the Demo cratic stamp, if possible. But in neither Johnson nor Rayburn is there any reluctance to fight. Rayburn, the old pro among his party's big wigs, is a slugger. He swings for a knock down when he swings at all. Johnson, the handsome, smiling type of politician, has shown ex treme skill as a bcxer, a political Benny Leonard, if anyone can go back that far. Because of his serious condi tion, Johnson probably won't be indulging in any political give and take for some time. His office already has announced he won't be back for the remainder of this congressional session. And his assistant, Sen. Earle C. Clem ents (D-Ky.) the Senate Demo cratic whip, already is taking over his duties. Clements is ex pected to carry on with the same policy and program set down by Johnson. . Demonstrates Technique Only a few days before his HAS 3L As 341 Tome 'ESeuDgDon' illness Johnson amply demon strated his technique as a po litical battler. There was a back and forth between Johnson and the President in which Johnson rubbed it in rather roughly that much of the Republican program this year had been put through Congress with Democratic votes. The point he was making was that Democrats are a high mind ed group of people who would not stoop to mere politics. Comet Said Moving Away From Earth Berkeley, Calif. J.R) Dr. Leland Cunningham, University of California astronomer, said to day a comet first seen by a Czech a month ago is now moving away from the earth. Cunningham's observations contradicted those of Czech astronomers as reported on a Radio Prague broadcast heard in London yesterday. The Czechs said the comet, the brightest seen this year, is still "approaching the earth." Radio Prague said the comet was spotted by Antonin Mrkos, a worker at the State Meteorolog ical Institute in the Tatra Moun tains in the night between June 12 and 13. "Actually, it was getting slightly nearer the earth at that time, but never significantly," Cunningham said. "Now it is re ceding rapidly from both . the earth and the sun." Even so, -he said, it is still vis ible easily to telescopes. . v M n D TO THE Or Is Anything Expected?

N. CENTRAL At his next news conference. Mr. Eisenhower replied sharply. not so, and read a list of the legislative projects which the Democratic maiorities had cut down or ignored. Back nonnfed Johnson ' with an observation about Mr. Eisenhower which was sure to sting. Of course. I can understand that the President was speaking from a prepared list that some one had given him, said the senator. "After all. he snent last week in New England, and may not fully understand all he was talking about." Johnson's policies obviously have not been dictated by any desire that Mr. Eisenhower loves him. More likely his idea was that a young man in his position may properly think one day. of getting his party's presidential nomination. That day might be, say, in 1960. And the bet way a Texan could win . an honor would be by proving to. the mid dle of the road and more con servative elements of his party that he is noradical. A nominee wants, above all else, a united party.

A new hay fever report service was an nounced yesterday by the State Board of Health. The report will provide daily information on the amount of common pollens in the air over downtown Port land. Dr. Harold Erickson, state health officer, said reports were being compiled from slides lo cated on the roof of the down town medical building.
