TEN MTOrORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday, May 17. 195B Kefauver Expecting Close Vote Friday; Won't Predict Outcome Washington iU.R Sen. Estes Kefauver says he expects a close vote in his three remaining pres idential primary contests with Adlai E. Stevenson. He would not predict the outcome. These two contenders for the Democratic presidential nomina tion have their next round in the Oregon primary Friday. Their competition for write-in votes will bind the state's 16 Demo cratic national convention votes. Kefauver cut a day out of his Oregon tour Wednesday to fly here for votes on the Niagara power bill. Stevenson finished his Oregon campaign and flew back to California. Their final contests will come May 29 in Florida, where 28 con vention votes are at stake, and June 5 in California, which has 68 votes. Says Gaining Strength Before heading back to Ore gon on an overnight flight to re sume his campaign today, Ke fauver told the United Press he thinks he has been gaining strength in that state. However, he said he has spent less time there than Stevenson and that his chances may have been hurt by cutting out a day for the Sen ate vote. T think I'm going to make a good showing," he said, "but I can't predict the outcome." Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D- Ore.) who has endorsed Steven son without taking an active part in the campaign, also told the United Press that he expects a close vote with Stevenson the probable winner. Kefauver was asked for an ap praisal of his chances in Florida and California. Getting Stronger Daily I think I may be slightly be hind in both states, . he said, "but I'm getting stronger every day. In both states, I think the vote may. be fairly close." The three remaining primaries provide the only head-on clashes between Stevenson and Kefau ver since the Tennessee senator handed his rival an almost dis astrous defeat in Minnesota March 20. Of the three, California is viewed as the decisive test. De feat probably will be fatal to the loser. After stops in northern Calif ornia today, Stevenson flies to night to Florida. Kefauver fol lows him into Florida next week after a week-end stop in Ten nessee. win FOR William L (Lm) n niMi CANDIDATE FOR DELEGATE At LARGE JISI TO THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION WILLIAM L.

Pol. Adv. Oregon Kefauver Committee The other major rival for the Democratic nomination,! New York Gov. Averell Harriman, continued his campaign today in the Pacific Northwest. In an ad- dress at Idaho Falls, Ida., Wednesday . night, Harriman charged that President Eisen hower is "destroying the farm family, by callously neglecting agriculture." New York Democratic Chair man Michael H. Prendergast told a Democratic meeting at Ithaca, N.Y., that Harriman "will help bring new victory to our party in the nation" this year. He pre dicted election of a "progressive, sound Democart to the White House." Popularity Said Proved On the Republican side, GOP National Chairman Leonard W, Hall said the 2-to-l margin Mr. Eisenhower scored in votes over Kefauver in Tuesday's Nebraska primary proved the President's "tremendous popularity." Hall said the results showed that "ap parently farmers as well as town and city people in Nebraska have real confidence in the integrity of the Eisenhower administra tion and staunchly support its major objectives. Weekend Wardrobe 'Ardent1 Trips Texas Boy In National Spelling Bee Washington (U.R) Thir teen year old John Julian, Lub bock, Tex., was the first to stumble, in the 29th annual Na tional Spelling Bee finals here today. Johnny, an eighth grader, tripped in the very first round on the word "ardent." He got some sympathetic ap plause and was patted on the back by bee officials as he left the stage biting his lip. The second, child to go down was Elizabeth Ann Veale, 14, You'll live in, love these smart summer fashions they're won derful separates for travel, vaca tion!

Complete, illustrated Lawsuit Attacks Vote on Pinballs Portland (U.R) A suit attack ing the city ordinance and the ballot title of Portland's pinball ban has been filed in Circuit Court here, alleging that the ordinance is an "anti-bowling ordinance." The suit could invalidate the results of Friday's primary vote on the pinball issue should it be successful. The action, filed by the Bowl erdrome Inc., says that mechani cal and electrical devices are used in its pin setting operations and that the game of bowling contains an inherent element of chance. It was claimed that the -ordinance would prohibit the use of such devices in the bowling operations, constituting what the plaintiff charges would be an unlawful, capricious and arbi trary deprivation of property and civil liberties without due process of law. The suit seeks to invabdate the current anti-pinball ordi nance and in the event the pin ball ban is upheld by the elec torate, to invalidate the measure.

He has asked for increased budgets (which have been approved by the Citizens' Budget Committee) to bring Jackson county, one of the fastest-growing in the state, better, more effective law enforcement and protection. He is proud of the personnel in his office past and present. Ask his former deputies Jim McGoodwin, Russell DeForest, Gene Piazza whether they left because of personal differ ences, or because they wanted to get out of low-paying jobs and into more lucrative private practice. He is proud of his record of justice, tempered with humanity, in his three years in office. It is a good record. It is a record he is proud to offer for your inspection.
