Primary Results
As far as the Primary went Jackson County "done
noble."
. We hoped Adlai Stevenson would beat Kef auver
but didn't expect him to do so. Adlai not only won
but going away, 3657 to 1909 nearly two to one.
He carried the state also and via the write-in-route,
a medium in which he has not, heretofore, ex
celled. THIS does not change our belief, however, that a
dark horse will win at Chicago. But it does give
Stevenson a chance at the brass-ring, which he would
not have had had he lost this state. Now if he
should win the California primary the chance of his
repeating his victory of four years ago would be no
worse than 50-50. That adds up to a sensational
change in Adlai's national
take some credit for it.
.
THE victory of Phil Hitchcock for the senatorial
nomination was also a pleasant surprise.
We expected Hitchcock to make a good showing
here but we didn't give him a Chinaman's chance of
beating the candidate with the blessing and endorse
ment of the high exalted ruler of the GOP, while
the Republican leaders and their well-oiled machine
were 100 per cent against him.
The Clackamas County "amateur" however car
ried Jackson county against
5160 to 4ol7 a marvelous showing for any un
known" contender.
'
THAT stalwart and unswerving supporter and often
spokesman for the Republican party in this state,
the Oregonian, didn't like this, but it did like the vote
for Woody Smith of Hood River against Senator
Wayne Morse of around 40,000 to nearly 200,000.
(Again unofficial and approximate.)
This the Oregonian solemnly proclaimed supports
the contention there is substantial opposition to our
Senior benator within the Democratic party.
-
JUIEBBE so.
But applying the same reasoning to the vote
in Jackson County we have about 4500 in favor of
ex-Governor McKay for U.S. Senator to nearly 6000
against him. Using the same f ormula for the state and
we have the following:
. For McKay 117,000.
Against McKay 119,000.
Or to express the situation in another way as far
as the Primary is concerned, and considering only the
votes for McKay and those for his opponent in Nov
ember, Wayne Morse, we have in round numbers the
following:
, For McKay 117,000.
For Morse 190,000. . .
TX7E grant this is not an accurate gauge of the senti-
" ment in the state as of now. For many perhaps
most of those who voted for Hitchcock didn't vote
for HIM so much as they voted AGAINST Senator
Morse choosing him as did many Republican news
papers in the state, as the man best qualified to defeat
our senior Senator in November, a defeat which was
and promises to continue to be the GOP's over-riding
objective in the 1956 election.
But it does follow the Oregonian line, and reveals
its basic fallacy. That fallacy rests upon the assump
tion that those who voted against a certain party can
didate on May 18 will necessarily refuse to vote FOR
him in November. That does not necessarily follow.
But even so there is nothing in the results of the
Oregon Primary which wan-anted the broad self
satisfied grin of triumph presented in the Portland
press, on the visage of our former Secretary of
the Interior, as he was assured of his victory for the
senatorial nomination on the Republican ticket.
TO RETURN to the results in Jackson County.
. The most surprising feature was the victory of a
candidate who was not a candidate, and announced
his retirement many weeks ago.
If anything like this ever happened before we
can't recall it. But there it is :
Lew Wallace of Portland, well known Democratic
"war-horse" who filed for the nomination of Gover
nor against Robert Holmes of Astoria on the Demo
cratic ticket but retired because of ill health, received
4087 votes while Holmes, the only candidate in the
running, was several yards behind with 3356.
We can't agree with those who consider this a de
liberate and conscious determination to throw a vote
away on a candidate who had retired to show love
and affection for "a grand old man of the party."
That would be too much to swallow. The only reason
able explanation, we can conjure up, is that those over
4000 Democrats who voted for Wallace or at least a
major portion of them did not know the score. They
had failed to note the "no-contest" sign printed in this
paper and having never seen or heard of "Bob"
Holmes they voted accordingly, for the familiar name.
. -
THIS was not the only case of misapprehension on
the part of local voters.
On the non-partisan judiciary ballot, District
Judge Rawles Moore, Vith both parties of course par
ticipating, rolled up a handsome total of about 11,000
votes to 5000 for his opponent. But the fly in the
ointment was the fact that the opponent O. H. Bengs
ton like Lew Wallace had long since withdrawn so
actually Judge Hoore had no opposition or should
have had none except by the "write-in" route.
It is of course too late to do anything about it, but
if there is no legal wTay in which the name of a candi
date who has filed and then withdrawn can be
stricken from the printed ballot, then some public
notice should be required a few days before election,
sufficiently conspicuous to attract widespread atten
tion and inform the electorate that the ballot they will
get will be imperfect, for in certain cases where coil

New Crisis
Result of Singapore Discussion
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Correspondent
The next few days may tell
whether Great Britain is going
to face a new crisis in Singa-
W:"! pore.
Indepen
dence negotia
tions for the
crown colony
broke down in
London last
week.
David M a r
shall, Singa
pore's chief
Charles Mccann minister and
leader of the delegation which
went to London to negotiate, has
started for home.
He left behind him a wake
of angry statements predicting
dire developments because the
British government refused toi
accept his demands.
He says he is going to resign
when he arrives. This, he says,
will open the way for the ex
tremists in Singapore to take
over.

Sen. Johnson To Take
160 Or More Votes To
National Convention
Washington (CQ) Astute
Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson of
Texas will take a conservatively
estimated 160 votes into the
Aug. 13 Democratic National
convention to back his hand in
keepings warring party factions
at peace.
And while fending off queries
about the ultimate aim of his
"favorite son" candidacy, John
son continues to receive offers
and pledges of more support
from delegations and political
leaders in the South and Far
West.
This support may be great
enough in the next six weeks to
send Johnson into the conven
tion with close to 250 votes a
sizeable chunk of the 1,372 votes
in the convention and the 687
needed to win.
Center of Strength
Democratic leader of the Sen
ate since 1953 and a Senator
since 1948, Johnson has placed
himself in the center of the
struggle between northern liber
als and southern conservatives
in his party. In the Senate, he
bridges their divergent views,
manages to keep a majority of
them on the same side of a leg
islative issue without alienating
those who stray from the flock
Johnson's current strength
stems primarily from the same
areas that four years ago backed
Sen. Ricard B. Russell (D.-Ga.)
for the Democratic presidential
nomination until Adlai E. Ste
venson won on the third ballot;
Russell's top convention vote
was 294 on the second ballot.
But Johnson's aim seems less
to be the party's candidate than
to see a candidate nominated
who will keep the party togeth
er by being acceptable to all
sides. Thus, as the rallying
point for most of the uncommit
ted southern delegates and as a
repository for undecided dele
gates from other areas, Johnson
can use his candidacy to line up
the so-called "moderates" be
hind an approved candidate.
May Aid Stevenson
Should Stevenson win the
May 29 Florida and June 5 Cali
fornia primaries, thereby mov
ing him closer to an early ballot
victory, Johnson is expected to
support Stevenson in the cru
cial voting.
If Stevenson ' falters either
in the upcoming primaries or at
the convention and Sen. Estes
Kefauver (D.-Tenn.) picks up
strength, Johnson's own candi
dacy may develop fuU strength
in an effort to halt Kefauver
and the expected drive of New
York's Gov. Averell Harriman.
Kefauver could enter the con
vention with close to 200 votes,
Harriman is assured of at least
100. Harriman also appears like
ly to be the recipient of ex
President Harry S. Truman's
blessing.
At this point, Johnson's forte
delicate political negotiation
tests appear, there will be no contest for the opposi
tion has withdrawn.
If this procedure, or something similar, is not
adopted then one of these fine days some candidate
for office and unopposed will be beaten in the final
count by some opponent who has not only quit the
race, but who has refused to go to the polls and in
stead has gone fishing!
That would be a nice kettle of fish! R.W.R.

for Britain
whom there are many,
Lee was a member of Marsh
all's London negotiating team,
which included aU elements in
Singapore politics.
Strikes May Be Called
Lee, on his return, may or
der the left labor unions to
stage a series of riotous strikes.
If that happens, serious trou
ble will be iri prospect.
But if Marshall and Lee are
smart, they may decide to let
the situation settle down for a
while. There are indications that
a basis for new negotiations
could well be found.
Marshall is going to visit
Prime Minister Jawaharlal Neh
ru of India, "neutralist" leader
and arch-foe of "colonialism," on
his way back home. -
It is just possible that Nehru
will give him some soothing ad
vice. If Marshall carries out his
threat to resign, the way would
be open for an election in which
Lee would take over.
That would bring a dangerous
swing toward Communism. Neh
ru is friendly toward Commun
ist China and Soviet Russia. But
will become a necessity. With
his strength at its peak, Johnson
would be able to start in opera
tion the selection, of a compro
mise candidate such as ' Sen.
Stuart Symington-of Missouri. '
Johnson already has indicated
his high regard for Symington,
In a March 29 Senate announce
ment of Symington's assignment
to the Agriculture committee,
Johnson took the unusual step
of elaborating on and praising
Symington's record. He told the
Senate he was announcing the
assignment with a "great feeling
of pride and satisfaction.
Rayburn in Picture
Strengthening Johnson's hand
as much or even more than his
bloc of votes will be the support
of .House Speaker Sam Rayburn,
another Texan. Rayburn wiU be
permanent chairman of the na
tional convention. It was Ray
burn who put forth the idea of
Johnson being Texas' "favorite
son," and then helped Johnson
defeat Gov. Allan Shivers for
control of the 56-vote Texas
convention delegation.
Johnson May 7 said: "I shall
go to Chicago with only one pre
conceived notion about the nom
inee, that it won't be me." But
his statements have not closed
the door completely on the pos
sibility of taking the nomination
himself. To do so would reduce
his negotiating position.
An indication of Johnson's
pre - convention strength will
come in the platform writing
sessions before the balloting
gets under way. If Johnson and
other party moderates can come
up with a civil rights and segre
gation section agreeable to both
northern and southern Demo
crats, Johnson's stock will shoot
higher.
Poll Tax Measure
In the 13-point "program with
a heart" Johnson announced
Nov. 21, 1955, his only mention
of civil rights was in urging a
constitutional amendment to out
law the poll tax, a requisite for
voting in five states. Banning
the poll tax by a constitutional
amendment has been advocated
by southern Democrats, while
northern Democrats say a sim
ple bill would do the job as well
and sooner. While a Represent
ative, Johnson voted against
such a bill in 1947.
But the biggest apparent stum
bling block to any attempt by
the 47-year-old. Johnson to ob
tain the nomination for himself
is the heart attack he suffered
last summer. Some Democrats
contend Johnson's nomination
would eliminate the issue of
President Eisenhower's health.

he doesn't want Communists to
get control of Singapore or any
other area in tiis neighborhood.
Nehru might advise MarshaU,
as a gesture of moderation, to
withhold his resignation for a
while.
That might bring a cooling-off
period. And Marshall certainly
needs cooling off.
Made Unacceptable Demands
A wealthy lawyer, whose Jew
ish ancestors fled Spain cen
turies ago to avoid persecution,
Marshall is a man of tempera
ment. He flies off the handle fre
quently and makes statements
which he later regrets.
The London negotiations fail
ed because he thought he was in
a "position of strength," as they
call it in the cold war. He made
demands which no British gov
ernment could accept, especially
the early control of internal se
curity. This security Marshall
could safeguard only with the
aid of British troops. But he
wanted to be able to decide just
what constituted a security sit
uation in event of an outbreak
of violence.
MarshaU was surprised, as
well as angry, when the negotia
tions broke down. He tried to
make some new. proposals. But
it developed that he lacked the
support of his own delegation.
MarshaU's own position in
Singapore has now been weak
ened. If he keeps on nursing his
anger, he may be one of the chief
losers.
Editorial Comment
DO-IT-YOURSELF PEARS
What producers of foodstuffs
can do on- thein own to increase
consumption of their product
and obtain a fair price for it has
been demonstrated by the Oregon-Washington-California
Pear
Bureau which will observe its
25th anniversary beginning with
a banquet at the Multnomah
hotel Wednesday night.
A quarter century ago pro
duction of winter pears in the
three coast states was only
1,250,000 boxes. Last year
4,547,210 boxes were produced
in this area and they returned
more than $21,000,000. Since
about 40 per cent of the pro
duction is in Oregon, it can be
seen that quadrupling the con
sumption has meant a great deal
to this state's economy. More
than 5.000,000 boxes . will be
harvested this year, barring a
late frost.
Pear growers in the late 1920s
found themselves in a, situation
which is common in agriculture
and horticulture: Production
threatened to exceed demand.
After World War I there had
been a heavy planting of pear
trees in Oregon and Washington
which meant that many more
pears would be pushed on the
then limited market.
At that time 40 per cent of
the pears were exported, as
against a record post-World War
II export of 10 per cent last
year. The rest of the winter
pears were sold chiefly in New
York, mostly to European-born
persons who cooked them. .The
growers were at the mercy of
the vagaries of these extremely
limited markets.
The obvious answer was to
enlarge the demand for pears,
and this the pear bureau, which
was organized in Portland on
May 9, 1931, set out to do. Pro
fessor Henry Hartman of Oregon
State college was "borrowed"
and sent to New York to study
the market. He. discovered thow
pears should be handled, so that
they would be ripe and uniform
in quality when offered for sale.
Formerly there had been no
uniformity and pears were often
hard and green when the con
sumer purchased them. Profes
sor Hartman also developed an
oil-copper treated wrap . which
prevents storage diseases.
Dietetic research undertaken
by Dr. Ira G. Manville of the
University of Oregon Medical
School in 1938 uncovered facts
which made it possible for the
bureau to advertise the vitamin
and mineral qualities of the
fruit.
The pear bureau is a volun
tary organization whose work
is financed by a small payment
on each box of winter pears
marketed. About 3000 growers
in the three Pacific coast states,
or approximately 85 per cent
of the production, support the
work. Now winter pears are
sold everywhere, not just in the

THE STRONG MAN
Baghdad, Iraq When this
reporter called on the famous
Nuri Pasha, the strong man and
perennial
Prime Minis
ter of Iraq, it
was rather al
armingly like
disturbing an
owl in the
daylight
hours.
Forty odd
years have
passed since
man became
vjepn Aisop
this remarkable
one of the founders of the Arab
independence movement as a
young officer in the Turkish Im
perial Army. He has lived hard
through all the subsequent dec
ades. He is 67. That morning,
moreover, his blood pressure
was troubling him. He was wait
ing impatiently for his doctor.
And meanhwile he sat huddled
in his dressing gown, his pierc
ing eyes hooded as though
against the light, and really look
ing remarkably owlish.
One sensed at once, too, that
Nuri Pasha was quite justifiably
embittered by the fantastic
choppings and changings of
American policy towards the
Baghdad Pact, on which he has
gambled Iraq's future. Hence he
was cynical about the useful
ness of any message he might
address to the United States. So
he came to life only once, when
he was asked about the veno
mous propaganda aimed at him
and his government by Egypt s
Gamal Abdel Nasser, who is
Nuri's presently successful rival
for leadership of the Arab world.
rpHEN the deep eyes flashed,
- and Nuri -Pasha declared
firmly that he had been risking
his life for the cause of Arab
independence before Gamal Ab
del Nasser was out of swaddling
clothes. For the rest: No, he was
not troubled by the weakening
link between Iraq and Jordan;
no, he was not disturbed by
Syria's closeness to Eqypt; no,
he was not disturbed either be
cause Iraq was the only Arab
state in the Baghdad Pact.
In a way, the situation here in
Iraq rather resembled this curi
ous, meeting, so reassuring on
the surface, yet not without its
disquieting side if you thought
about it a little. On the surface
all is well in Iraq. Nuri Pasha's
government is strong, and Com
munist and Egyption agitators
are sternly controlled by an effi
cient police.- The magnificently
conceived Iraqi Development
program is already bringing a
bustling new prosperity. Later,
it should make Iraq the econom
ic showplace of the Arab world.
Even today, moreover, the dic
tatorship here is far less severe
than ih EgyptTFrom the social
welfare standpoint, this is Uto
pia compared to Egypt's strange
ally, Saudi Arabia, whose oil
dollars finance Egypt's policy,
Oijtwardly, therefore, it seems
perfectly reasonable to hope that
pro-Western Iraq will serve as
an example and a magnet, to at
tract the other Arab states to
wards a policy less hostile to the
West.
v
'PHIS theory of Iraq's magne-
- tism is important, because it
is 'held in many quarters in
Washington and is the declared
basis of British Middle Eastern
policy. But as of today, the
theory is not working out in
practice. Iraq's isolation from
the rest of the Arab world is in
truth increasing, at this moment,
with every passing week. ,
Furthermore, the failure of
the theory is having serious
effects within Iraq. Nuri Pasha
may tell a casual interviewer
that he does not mind bemg iso
lated from his Arab brothers, so
long as he is doing the right
thing. But in fact he told the
British government that it was
absolutely essential for his gov
ernment to have at least one
other Arab state in the Baghdad
Pact. The British attempt to
meet this plea from Nuri in turn
led to the disastrous mission to
Jordan of Gen. Sir. Gerald
Templer, which ended by mak
ing matters a great deal worse.
The truth is that all the na
tionalist emotions that have
gripped the rest of the Arab
world are powerfully surging
beneath the surface here in
East and for export, and they
are bought to eat as fresh fruit,
not chiefly to cook.
How much better such a pro
gram is than dependence on
government support.
Portland Oregonian.
iii i ....
Iraq. The impulse towards Arab
unity is only one of these emo
tions, but it is particularly
strong here because so many
Iraqis blame the Western-spon
sored Baghdad Pact for Iraq's
isolation. The truth is, further,
that in these nations which are
making the enormous transition
from an ancient form to a mod
ern form of society the normal
tests of reason and self-interest
often do not work very weU in
shaping events. Pure emotion is
often more decisive.
IN THESE circumstances, if
nrPSPnt trpnr?c Tint-in,,. stnA
I , UIJ.ll.u., Vll
can predict rather positively that
the theory of Iraq's magnetism
will never become valid. If pres
ent trends continue, in truth, one
can predict eventual bad inter
nal trouble here in Iraq and if
Iraq abandons her present pro
Western orientation, nothing but
naked force will cure the situa
tion in the Middle East.
The point is, however, that
present trends do not need to
continue unless the American
government is permanently
wedded to its present line of
blandly hoping for the best and
blindly refusing to prepare for
the worst. In the Middle East
as in the Far East, strength is
respected and nothing succeeds
like success. What is needed to
reverse present trends is simply
a firm, clear and united Anglo
American policy, better adjusted
to Middle Eastern realities than
the present British policy, and
immeasurably more positive and
determined than the curious
mixture of aimless drift and ad
man's slogans that now passes
for a Middle Eastern policy in
Washington.

Equality of Rights
For Women Favored
In Amendment Plan
Washington The women's
equal rights amendment, sought
by American feminists for more
than a 'quarter ontury, has
again been reported to the Sen
ate with a committee recommen
dation that it be sent to the state
legislatures for ratification as
part of the Constitution.
The amendment says that
equality under the law shaU not
be denied by the United States
or any state on account of sex.
Labor organizations have suc
cessfully resisted its adoption to
date on grounds that it would
wipe out all protective legisla
tion for women.
See Restrictions
Feminists have no objection
to protective legislation for
workers in industry, whether en
acted by Congress or the state
legislatures, but they want it to
apply equally to men and wom
en. They say laws which restrict
night work for women or forbid
their employment in certain
hazardous occupations restrict
their job opportunities and limit
their earning power.
When the amendment was
last up in 1953, the Senate add
ed a section declaring that the
grant of legal equality should
not be construed as impairing
benefits granted to women by
law. That was regarded by the
National Women's party and
other feminist organizations as
completely nullifying the pur
pose of the amendment so far
as equality in industry is con
cerned. They will fight hard to
keep a simUar section out when
the amendment is brought up for
floor action this year.

cover an award of $5,000-$20,-000,
even $50,000, in case I
injure or kill someone. But
what about personal injury to
myself or passengers? Would
