People "who have seen the annual federal tax bill go up from three billion to 65 billion Morse turned his full salvo on McKay in his speech at The Dalles last night. Would Be Rubber Stamp "By attacking the independ ence of judgment I have shown in the senate, McKay lets it be known what type of representa tion he would give In the Sen ate he would be a rubber stamp for pressure groups," Morse asserted Republican National Commit teeman Bob Mautz, in an ad dress last night, blasted Demo cratic charges that McKay has a huge "slush fund" behind him in his race for the senate. "When a political candidate has the financial resources for an expensive, all-out campaign, don't be hoodwinked by his screams that his opponent has a huge slush fund and unlimited financial backing." Mautz said. He termed reports that Morse had no funds and McKay un- Choice of William Brennan Jr. To Supreme Court Gets Applause By LYLE C. WILSON United Prs Correspondent Washington .U.R) Not the least of the general applause which continues to greet Presi dent Eisen hower's latest Supreme Court choice comes from Republi- x can political l M ren-V-SST j hower long since ceased to be a politi c a 1 amateur. He got his mas ter's ticket some time ago. If he hadn't got it already, surely it would issue with the selection of William Joseph Brennan Jr., to succeed associate Justice Sherman Minton, resigned. William Joseph Brennan Jr., Is precisely the man for whom Mr. Eisenhower was looking young, good lawyer with both trial and bench experience with an outstanding record as a judge. Justice Brennan, however, has other qualifications which are peculiarly important this year. He's a New Jersey Democrat of Irish blood and a member of the Roman Catholic Church. Mr. Eisenhower is right now engaged in urging Democrats who voted for him in 1952 to re peat this year. If they fail to do so in sufficient numbers, Mr. Ei senhower almost surely will be defeated in his reelection bid. Mr. Eisenhower bears down hard on the idea that he is less partisan than some and, especi ally, that he is the president of all the people, not just a party president. A Significant Selection The choice of Brennan, in view of the foregoing, could be the most significant political se lection for high office that Mr. Eisenhower has made or ever will. It is likely to win or hold some Democratic and Catholic votes for Mr. Eisenhower and, in a very close election, a few votes here or there make the dif ference between victory and defeat. The President has been con siderably mauled by the opposi tion on charges of loading his cabinet with and for big busi ness. But in many other appoint ive areas, Mr. Eisenhower has made political medicine for himself and the Republican party with his picks. He drafted the Senate dean, Walter F. George of Georgia, as his personal representative to the North Aaltantic Treaty Or ganization. The draft came at a time when Congressional Demo crats were beginning to object i to United States subsidy of for eign armaments. Mr. Eisenhower.chose Sen. Hu bert Humphrey (D-Minn.) and Sen. William F. Knowland (R Calif.) to be among the U.S. rep resentatives to the United Na tions Assembly. They have been active critics of administration foreign policy. All such are right out of FDR's manual of political performance. Variety in Sports So are the President's easy news conference manners and his awareness that to love golf is. okay, but a President is sup posed to go to "the ball game oc casional, too. It is not enough merely to love the voters. A good politician also loves the voters' sports if he can make himself do it. Eisenhower does all of these things. It cannot be said that he excels in the sense of topping FDR. Who but the late Mr. Roosevelt would have thought in a campaign year of suddenly stuffing a couple of top drawer Republicans into his cabinet. That was 1940, and they were the late Henry L. Stimson and the late Frank Knox. Who but FDR would have thought of kid I naping the Republican presiden I tial nominee after defeating him? That was in 1940, also, and the man was Wendell L. Wilkie, who became Mr. Roosevelt's roving world ambassador. Harry S. Truman was no slouch. Mr. Truman had a Su preme Court vacancy to fill in 1945 and found best fitted for it a former Senate colleague. Asso ciate Justice Harold Hitz Burton of Ohio, a Republican. The gov ernor of Ohio was a Democrat who promptly put a Democrat in Republican Burton's Senate seat. It was a great deal for everyone except the Republican party. Nematode Infestation Discovered in Oregon Corvallis (U.R) An infesta tion of nematode, a worm which damages sugar beets, has been discovered in a 15-acre field be tween Nyssa and Ontario in eastern Oregon. The Ontario-Nyssa area grows a large amount of sugar beets and the Amalgamated Sugar company contracts for some 45, 000 acres of beets annually in the Oregon-Idaho area near On tario. This is the first time that an infestation of nematode has been reported from the area. The worm thrives on roots and the beet itself. Oregon State college and Slate Department of Agriculture offi cials said that if the worm gets started production per acre sel dom would exceed 15 tons. Nor mal yield is 25 to 30 tons per acre in the Ontario area. How widespread the nematode is hasn't been determined. NEW PENS New ball point pens, replacing the old-style pen point and hold ers, were put in use at the Med ford post office Monday. The pens are chained to the desks, in the lobby, each desk having two pens.

Earlier in the day at Pendle ton, Smith had defended his rec ord in the state Senate, which has been under attack by his Democratic opponent, Robert D. Holmes. "Keep in mind my opponent is extremely left wing Democrat and I am a middle of the road Republican," the governor said. Smith defended his vote against the United Nations reso lution in the state Senate and said what hasn't been mentioned by his opponent was the fact the state Legislature repealed the COMPOSER DIES Los Angeles (U.R) Com poser Albert Von Tilzer, 78. died here Monday following an ex tended illness.

Coon told his audience "this country will enjoy continued prosperity only as long as free enterprise is preserved and en couraged." Asks Election of Lee Sen. Richard L. Neuberger spoke in Woodburn last night, calling for the election of Jason Lee, Democrat, in the first district. Oregon Eligible For Hospital Money Washington (U.R) Oregon will be eligible to receive $905, 993 for construction of non-profit public or private hospitals and S300.000 for other medical fa cilities this fiscal year under funds provided by the Hill-Burton program. The sum represents an in crease from the $776,082 allo cated for use the past year for hospitals. The same figure, $300, 000, was allocated last year for other medical facilities. Funds made available by the government under the program are determined by population and per capita income figures. Oregon has received $6,961, 000 in federal funds to help on 37 projects in the past nine years under the program. iseuberger criticized the rec ord of Rep. Walter Norblad on agriculture, timber products and harbor development and said the Republicans have dominated the district for too long. Holmes carried his campaign to Portland last night where he spoke at the weekly meeting of the Portland Central Labor council. The Democratic nomi nee reiterated his challenge to Gov. Smith to campaign on his record. Rep. Harris Ellsworth, Repub lican, carried his campaign to Jackson county yesterday. He is scheduled to deliver a major address in Ashland Wednesday. Al Ullman, seeking to unseat Coon in the second district, spoke in The Dalles last night. He called for immediate construc tion of the John Day dam as a federal project. Tuesday, October 2, 1958 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE HIKE Alibi Witnesses Due in Brink's Case Boston U.R) More alibi wit nesses appear today in the trial of eight men accused of the mil lion dollar robbery at Brink's Inc., six years ago.
