Patter son, who died in January, Holmes will serve only a two year term and would have to face the voters again in Novem ber, 1958, to earn a full four year term. Gov. Elmo Smith will have held office just short of a year when he steps out of the executive office on the opening day of the legislative session next January. Holmes will take over officially after the Legislature canvasses the November vote and he is sworn in by the Chief Justice of the Oregon Supreme Court. Demos Have House While control of the 1957 Senate remains in doubt, due to a -13-15 split of the membership between the parties. Democrats will have undisputed control of the House. Rep. Pat Dooley, the only Democrat to be elected in his Multnomah county sub-district-, appeared to be. the leading candidate for presiding officer of the House. In the Senate, Warren Gill of Lebanon has made an all-out bid to retain Republican control A Nichol's Worth of . . . Comment On HAKMAN W. NICHOLS United Fran future Wtittr ' Washington CUR) Pfc.

There he was in the mess hall at H e adquarters Company, 87th Infantry. As- chaffenburg. Germany, ready to tie into a big T-bone steak. Sat urday was steak day and our lad had looked forward to it. He went to work but nothing happened. To tus dismay he realized he had nothing in his rnouth that would do a decent job on a steak. Gene was plenty sore. But he got sorer "when his buddies, tumbling to his plight, started to pitch GI barbs. Soup Diet' "Gene, old buddy," said a guy from Iowa who owned a full set of choppers, "have you' ever thoughtof going on a soup diet?

Considered foremost. Democratic candidates are Monroe Sweetland of Mil waukie, Harry Boivin of Klam ath Falls and Phil Brady of Portland. Vacancies in the Senate left by election of Holmes and Mark Hatfield to the executive branch will be filled by appointment by Clatsop and Marion county com missioners, respectively.

Oregon will have the heaviest Democratic repre sentation in 75 years with both Senate seats and three out of four House seats.

This and That through his pockets, eight or nine of them, but couldn't find his falsies. There was only one thing to do. He beat a retreat from his buddies and went to bed. His barracks mates said later his snoring was even more raucous than usual. But next morning our boy Gene had a consoling awaken ing. There was his laundry. There They Are "If I can't eat anything but soup," he said to himself, "I at least can put on clean clothes." When he got dressed he dug into the bottom of the laundry sack. There lay a set of uppers and lowers, which he had sent to the laundry by mistake. The good old Army!- The teeth had come back buffed, honed and polished. And wrapped in a package saying: "Goot eating, Gene, old pall" It was signed by Gene's room mate, a Chinese who works in the laundry. He had seen the teeth before and knew who'd lost them. Giant sequoias, earth's largest living things, sprout from seeds so small that one ounce, in the ory. could produce 6.700 trees, the National Geographic Society says. 10 Per Cent Hike in State Residents Seen Within Next Decade Pendleton U.R) Oregon's population, both urban and rural, will increase more than 10 per cent in the next 10 years, but it will still produce more farm produce including wheat than it can consume, in the opinion of Dr. Gerald Korzan, head of the agriculture depart ment at Oregon State College. Moves by Cabinet Save Eden From Fatal Party Split London (U.PJ Only last min ute moves by cabinet ministers averted open rebellion in Con servative Party ranks and saved Prime Minister Anthony Eden's government from a fatal split over its Middle East policy, it was disclosed today. As a result of the interven tion, tlie government defeated a Laborite motion of censure Thursday night in the House of Commons. The motion was beaten by 320 to 262, a major ity of 58. Eden himself did not partici pate in the debate which pre ceded the vote. But he is ex pected to speak today. Inform ants said he may announce Brit ish forces will be withdrawn from Egypt within 10 days. Critical for Eden The censure vote was consid ered critical for Eden in view of the recent defections of Con servative backers. Two of his state ministers had resigned in protest against the armed inter vention in Egypt. So did his public relations secretary. Authoritative political reports said a large number of Conserva tivesestimated at nearly 30 announced their intention to ob stain from the vote. Some said they would refuse to vote until they received assurances that British forces would be with drawn as soon as the United Na tions police force arrived in Egypt. Ike Orders Borders Open To Hungarians Washington .UK President Eisenhower has ordered the United States opened to 5,000 refugees who fled from Hun gary rather than submit to Communist domination. The present U.S. immigration quota for Hungary is 865. Mr. Eisenhower announced the lowering of immigration barriers after a conference Thursday "wtih Pierce J. Gerety, deputy administrator of the ref ugee relief act. He also issued a public appeal to all Americans to give assurances of "housing, employment and financial assist ance" for Hungarians seeking to escape Russian bullets and bombs. The 5,000 refugees will be ad mitted to this country as soon as possible, the President said. Mr. Eisenhower said in a spe cial statement that "few events of recent times have so stirred the American people as the tra gic effort of Hungarian men and women to gain freedom for themselves and for their children." KILLED BY EXPLOSION Eugene (U.R) EIroy Jack son, 25, was killed near Blue River east of here yesterday when dynamite exploded as he prepared to blow a hole under a log, the Lane county coroner's office reported. THANKS I want to give my sincere thanks to all my friends and supporters who have helped to elect me to the office of County Assessor. I will do my best to justify the confidence given me. In all contests there must be a win ner and a loser. It is always gratifying to be a winner. I want to compliment my opponent in this election, Mr. Allen Curry, on the fair manner in which he has conducted his campaign. - He has received a splendid vote of confidence for his many years of Public Service. I have always had the greatest re spect for his integrity and character, and I hope I shall always have his friendship. RAY J. SCHUMACHER. Dr. Korzan told some 350 members attending the annual convention of the Oregon Farm Bureau Federation yesterday: "Our production of all farm products and particularly wheat is going to fill this population demand and still leave tremen dous surpluses." He added: "We should seriously consider channeling some of the surplus food stockpiles into feed for cattle and other livestock. The present practice is to cut down on pasture roughage for animals and sell them for human con sumption. But in order to keep a sufficient supply of meat it is necessary to feed livestock more than they eat in field grazing." Boon To Oregon Dr. Korzan touched briefly on the atomic radiation method of preserving foodstuffs. He said this will be a "great boon" to Oregon products. Most of them have to be shipped across country at a loss usually of quality and at high transporta tion expense. U.S. Consul Stall Targets in Egypt Port Said, Egypt U.R) The U.S. Consul and three members of his staff were fired on by Egyptian tommygunners Tues day night and one of them was injured, it was disclosed here today. Consul Anthony Cuomo, of Detroit and Modesto, Calif., said the Egyptians sprayed his living room with tommyguns. Vice Consul Thomas Dickson, Kil gore, Tex., was cut by shattered glass. The bullets narrowly missed Cuomo and two other consular staff men, he said. Cuomo was busy today on food supplies, medical help and pub lic security for this Anglo French Egyptian city. He said he has asked the Unit ed States to rush food and medi cal supplies to an area where 250,000 Arabs face possible famine. He said he was negotiating with Egyptian police to resume their work under Anglo-French supervision to protect remaining food stores from looters who have attacked shops and houses. Heavy Fog Causes Two Auto Accidents Two accidents were reported to state police yesterday, both of them the result of heavy fog. Cars operated by Earl Fred rickson Millhouse, 39, of 1126 South Stage rd., Medford, and Dale Allen McCoy, 19, of 822V2 East Ninth St., Medford, were involved in an accident at the corner on Mason-Ehrman rd. just west of the railroad tracks about 4:45 p.m. yesterday. Police said the McCay vehicle, which was traveling north, went straight ahead in the fog instead of turning at the corner.
