parties in national spending.

Morse turned his full salvo on

Republican National Commit

a huge "slush fund" behind him
in his race for the senate.
"When a political candidate

financial backing." Mautz said.
He termed reports that Morse

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

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

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

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.
Timothy Nyhan, an employee
of defendant Joseph McGinnis,
testified Monday he saw his boss
talking with a police lieutenant
on Jan. 17, 1950, the day masked
bandits crashed the money
vaults.
McGinnis, who the state con
tends engineered the holdup,
never has been placed at the
robbery scene. According to ban

his cafe to establish an alibi
while other members of the gang
made the assault on Brink's Inc.
