(Pat) Brown, a genial 53-year-old Irish Catholic, as its governor-elect today after dealing a death blow to the political career of Republican Sen. William Fife Knowland. Both Knowland, the GOP leader in the senate, and the issue he fought so hard for-right-to-work-went down to defeat in Tuesday's election. The right-to-work initiative, which would have outlawed the union shop, lost by a ratio of about 5 to 3. Knowland fell by a margin which may ap proach a million votes when final returns from the state's 26,896 precincts are in. Another Republican stal wart went down to defeat when Republican Gov. Good win J, Knight, 61, lost to 46-year-old Democratic Congress man Clair Engle in their bat tle for a six-year term in the U. S. Senate.

The senator said he in tended to return to Oakland to take up his duties as assist ant publisher of the Oakland Tribune and said he did not expect again to seek elective office. Asked if he had been of fered a federal post by Presi dent Eisenhower, Knowland told reporters, "absolutely not. I am looking forward to returning to my family business and my family." Brown's victory means a re turn to the statehouse for the Democratic party for the first time in 16 years.

Knowland telegraphed Brown the customary con gratulations on his election and said: '"Had I been disloyal to my principles or turned my back on the other candidates on the Republican ticket, I would feel less at ease than I do to day." This appeared to be a refer ence to the fact that Know land went through the hectic campaign without the endorse went of his running mate, Knight, or most of the other GOP candidates for statewide office. Knight originally an ILLINOIS VALLEY Assembly Program Slated By RUTH RAUSCH Cave Junction A unique travelogue program will be presented at the next National School assembly slated for Nov. 6 at the Illinois Valley High school. Shirley Duncan will relate her experiences in riding a bicycle over the continent of Australia, telling in detail of the interior desert lands and great pasture valleys of the "down under" continent. She will also tell of the-'ab-original tribes of central Aus tralia and of the time she spent on the Great Barrier reef, off the shore of ,the con tinent where she made her living for a time from the oysters and shell fish found in the ocean. Scott Reading and Wendell Seat were first and second place winners in the FFA speech contest staged last week at the high school, spon sored by the Illinois Valley' Soil Conservation district. This week there will be anoth er contest held with the win ners competing with Grants Pass boys. Others who participated 4n the contest on "forest conser vation" were Dennis Bottel, Oliver Wilson and Lee Locke. Ronine and Howard Elder of Redding, Calif., were week end guests of Ronine s par ents, the Bob Rauches. Both young people are students of Shasta College in Redding. Richard Newman, former Illinois Valley High school in structor, now a patient in the Multiple Sclerosis hospital of Flint, Mich., has expressed his appreciation for the many cards and letters sent to him by his friends here.

The two men were at odds throughout the campaign and were in oppo site corners on right-to-work -a measure which was the keystone of Knowland's cam paign for "union democracy" and a "w o r k e r s' bill of rights." Brown's Toughest Campaign Brown conceded that his campaign with Knowland, one which dragged on for a full year, was the toughest one during a 15-year career as a district attorney and state attorney general. "He is a strong and able man," Brown said. "He fought a hard campaign, certainly the most vigorous that has ever confronted me." Two other controversial measures went down to defeat in an election which attracted the greatest turnout for a non- presidential year in the state s history. A measure to repeal the property tax exemption for parochial and private schools was soundly beaten as was a labor-backed proposi tion to cut the sales tax but boost high-bracket income taxes. Congressman Patrick J.

Voters in the sixth state, Kan sas, approved a law guarantee ing workers the right to work without having to join a un ion. Organized labor, backed by its political allies, soundly trounced right to work pro posals on the ballots in Cali fornia, Ohio, Colorado and the state of Washington. In Idaho, the sixth state where the issue was before the voters, the vote was 113,361 to 110,896 against such a law with only 72 of 898 precincts still to report. Kansas' approval of a right to work law brought to 19 the number of states with such legislation. In general, these laws outlaw union contracts requiring workers to join un ions or maintain their union membership as a condition for holding their jobs. SMILING KILLER Apparently unconcerned about his future, confessed slayer Roy Victor Olson, 23, of North Sacramento, Calif., answers police questions in Mil waukee, .Wis. Olson was arrested for the knife slaying of Ogden Miles, Sacramento TV announcer, and John Weiler, 31, the latter in Seattle. "I don't know why I killed these men," Olson said, "I'm not sorry, either."

Incomplete returns from tlie state's general election in dicated that the Republicans would retain the six seats they held in the seven-member Washington delegation in the House. Voters jumped the fence to reelect Democratic Sen. Henry M. Jackson by a nearly 2-1 majority over political neo phyte William B. Bantz and returned Don Magnuson as apparently the state's only democratic congressman. Initiative 202, a right to work measure to outlaw union shop agreements, was rejected by a nearly 2-1 majority. Most candidates vigorously opposed it. purposes of Reagle's visit was to look over several, parcels of real estate with a view to ward his retirement soon.

Mrs. Betty Webb of Kerby spent last , week end with friends in Eureka, Calif. x x Ighwayrood X I T, lf I In Indiana, the Democrats apparently won control of the state legislature and in creased the prospects of a fight to repeal the Indiana right to work law at the 1959 session. The law was passed at the 1957 meeting of the Legis lature when both branches were under GOP control. Voters in Washington and California decisively defeated right to work proposals for the second time. In California the issue lost by better than a 7-5 margin. The opposing margins in Washington and Colorado were about 2-1. Labor Strong in Ohio Pro-labor forces in Ohio made a surprisingly strong showing, burying the proposi tion with nearly half a million votes to spare. AFL-CIO offi cials had predicted a tight con test in this top-ranking indus trial state and were amazed at the lopsided results. With more than two-thirds of all precincts reporting, the Ohio vote ran 1,296,393 to In the same way that sterling on silver signifies a standard of known value, so is the A.B.C. em blem a symbol of integrity for the circulation of newspapers and periodicals.

The measure was vigorously opposed by labor and general ly supported by business groups in the six states where it was placed before voters.

The campaign was pressed in Cali- j fornia and Ohio, two heavily industrialized states with a combined total of more than two million ' union workers.
