Maine Governor "
Asserts Democrats
'Parly of Change'
Portland OP Gov. Edward S.
Muskie of Maine, first Democrat
to hold the chief executive's of
fice in that state in 20 years,
toured the Columbia gorge area
with Gov. Robert D. Holmes
Sunday after speaking Saturday
night to some 800 Democrats
who paid S10 each for the Jefferson-Jackson
day dinner.
'Party of Change'
Muskie, who like Holmes end
ed a long GOP rule in his state's
executive office, told Democrats
Saturday night that "the Demo
cratic party is the party- of
change." He said there now is
"a tendency to dwell too much
on the accomplishments of Pres
idents Franklin D. Roosevelt and
Harry S. Truman."
He said Democrats realize that
every citizen wants to be able
to earn a living, provide for his
children and live out his days
in dignity and self respect. He
said these objectives should be
applied as a test to any problem,
including the one "that now con
fronts the South."
Muskie and Holmes gave in
formal talks Sunday before a
meeting of the Democratic State
Central Committee.
Agrees To Suggestion
Holmes agreed to a suggestion
that he meet regularly with
county Democratic officials to
work out problems. He also sug
gested a program to assess man
power available for appointive
vacancies.

Neuberger (D-Ore.) c r i t icized
Oregon Republicans at Saturday

onomic problems.
