    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."
Nation Bound To Veterans

veteran does not merit any com-,
pensation or award from his
country other than his pay for
military service he renders in

time of emergency is one that I
absolutely reject," Morse told
the national convention of the
Veterans of World War I at the
Multnomah hotel in Portland.
"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.

The Family Council
Editor's note: The Family Council conilsts of a Judce, a psychiatrist,
three clercymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers.
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

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.
