McKay Gets Assist From Former Morse Student in Campaign Fight Br UNITED PRESS Douglas McKay had an assist last night Irom a former Morse student as the campaign fight between the former secretary of the interior and Senator Wayne Morse continued in high gear. "Senator Morse's proposed leg islation has little or no chance of enactment because he has lost the respect of his colleagues," Donald C. Walker. Portland at torney and ex-Morse student said last night at a Yamhill county Republican meeting at New berg. N.ub.rgr In Verbal Blast A verbal blast was directed at McKay by Senator Richard L. Neuberger, who addressed a meeting of the Milwaukie Rod and Gun club last night. "The free-wheeling wildlife refuge leasing policies of Secre tary Douglas McKay forced a committee of Congress to take the unprecedented step of requir ing prior congressional clearance of oil drilling permits on lands under jurisdiction of the Fish and Wildlife Service," Neu berger charged. The two contenders apparent ly took a day off from blasting one another, leaving it to their fellow party members. McKay, the Republican candi date for U. S. senator, addressed students at the Wy'East high school near Hood River, follow ed by a lengthy question and answer period. One student asked "would the Suez canal situation be any less dangerous if Adlai Stevenson were president now." McKay replied: "I think not. President Dwight D. Eisenhower is the outstanding symbol of peace in the world today."

"If an American citizen has an obligation to serve his nation, the nation has an equal obliga tion to him. ..." Morse said. "Pensions are not intended to be that kind of payment. They are only one installment which we can make on the obligation the nation owes to veterans. . . . " Ex-Convict Seeks Massachusetts Post Boston U.R) Democratic Rep. Thomas J. Lane sought to day to become the first congress man in history to retain his seat despite serving a prison- term. A fairly heavy turnout of 500,- 000 to 600,000' Democratic and perhaps 250,000 Republicans were expected to vote for more than 1,300 candidates seeking 351 Massachusetts office. Lane's attempt to regain his seat in the seventh congression al district was the top fight on either primary ballot. Lane was released earlier this month from a federal peniten tiary where he served a four month sentence for income tax evasion. His opponents are state Reps. Pasquale Caggiano of Lynn, and Joseph T. Conley of Lawrence, state Sen. Andrew P. Quigley of Chelsea, and schoolmaster James D. Leary of Lynn. Most of the other big contests were on the Democratic ballot, including spirited battles for governor and four other state wide offices. Sfeef Industry Aid In Capitalism Told Los Angeles (U.R) Some 3,000 delegates Monday heard union President David J. Mc Donald of United Steel Workers declare that the nation's steel in dustry has aided in development of "people's capitalism of which we can be proud." McDonald compared the situa tion in this country with that in the Soviet Union and declared: "We hope some day the peo ple of the Soviet Union will get to know what we have in this j people's capitalism and demand that Communism be destroyed. California Gov. Goodwin J. Knight told the convention that "organized labor must be ac cepted." The Republican gov ernor said he was a supporter of organized labor. i FINED FOR TEARING PAGE Kingston on Thomas.

Cach article is a summary of an actual report The Family Council does not give advice; It merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible acencies and counselors. J.D.L. My son admits he's been stealing. Jerry My father has had no use for me. J.D.L My son Jerry was caught stealing money from his employer and might have be come a police case, were it not for the fact that the employer himself dreaded publicity and was willing to have me pay back the money in installments. When I asked my son why he did it, he shocked me by telling me that he had stolen before on a number of occasions. He refuses to give any reason for this behavior, and he certainly has no reason to feel desperate about money. I can't get much out of him, and whenever I try to reason with him, he tells me that if I want him to, he will gladly leave home and take care of himself, but will not stand for any lecturing. Jerry My boss was not as kind as he makes out. He does not went any publicity because he runs a bookmaking establish ment in back of the store where I worked. My father sees noth ing wrong with that, and he got me the job, where I worked for peanuts, just so I would be out of his hair. I'm no holdup man, but I don't see why I should be expected to work for practically nothing while people all around me do wWat they please. When I was going to school, I never got the spending money the other kids did, so If I came in late at night and found the cash box, I helped myself and didn't have to fight with my parents for every nickel. . I would not steal from any one who was giving me a decent break. My father never bad any use for me. I had ideas about my future, but he wasn't interested. He's always found me penny ante jobs with his friends, and I've had to take care of myself in my own way. . The Council: The only glim mer of hope in this sad situation is the boy's phrase, "I had ideas about my future." It is difficult to tell whether the boy was just feeling sorry for himself or has a genuine grievance based on parental neglect, but the best hope of improving his attitude toward life would seem to lie in encouraging him to do some thing better about his future. Jerry argues that he is "no holdup man" and would not steal from any one who was giving him "a decent break," but it is just such rationalization that enables mild, colorless peo ple to grow into desperate crim inals. Jerry is either telling some sad truths about his upbringing or is misrepresenting, perhaps even to himself. Whatever the case may be, his father should have the Tuesday, September 18, 1956 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN ": -rfl V :-?

Labor Group Endorses Morse, Edith Green Portland (U.R) A labor group yesterday endorsed Sen. Wayne Morse and Rep. Edith Green, both Democrats, for reelection but favored Republicans for two state offices. The endorsements were made by the third congressional dis trict of the AFL-CIO committee on political- education. The group favored Sig Unan der for state treasurer and Carl Francis for attorney general, both Republicans. It endorsed Robert Holmes, Democrat, for governor and Monroe Sweetland, also a Democrat, for secretary of state. truth out in the open. If Jerry is right, amends should be made and if, as is probably the case, he has misunderstood or dis torted" the facts, that should be clearly brought out in discus sion. If there is no constructive showdown now, Jerry in all like lihood will go on to create a new mess that may be beyond his father's capacity to clear up, and then Jerry will really be on his way to a life of crime and tragedy.
