Sen. Morse Conceded Front Position in Oregon Primary
Johnson (Plans Formula To Take
Wind Out of lights Filibuster
Washington OJPD D e m o
cratic Leader Lyndon B.
Johnson sought today to take
the wind out of the Senate
civil rights filibuster with a
compromise tailored to please
Republicns and Democrats
alike.
The Texan's voting referee
iormuia .was discussed pri
vately -with talkathon-weary
lawmakers as the Senate
went into its fourth day of
around-the-clock civil rights
debate.
The proposal " was - to be
considered by ' Bepublican
senators at a conference to
day. At 3 a jn. (e.s.t) the Senate
had been in continuous ses
sion for 63 hours except for a
15-minute recess Wednesday.
Senators straggled ' in with
rumbled hair and sleep-filled
eyes for today's first quorum
call at 12:38 ajn.
A heavy snow storm kept
down the spectators, who on
the three previous nights of
the talkathon had stood in
line for gallery seats.
Johnson's five-page meas
ure is a revision of a plan of
fered in the House Feb. 23 by
Rep. William M. McCulloch
(R-Ohio). It is a watered down
version of the Eisenhower ad
ministration's seven-p o i n t
rights proposal.

Anti-Semitism Acts Deplored by Speaker
New York - (UPD - Interna
tional affairs writer James P.
Warburg Wednesday night
called the recent outbreak of
swastika - smearing in Ger
many "a disturbing revival of
the dormant and unregenerate
Nazi spirit." :
Warburg, a former banker,
told a B'nai B'rith meeting
that this spirit was kept alive
both by "a numerically small
but by no means insignificant
part of the West German
population" and "a neo-Nazi
or neo-Fascist International."

CORNER 6th and FIR
Adlai Stevenson,
Kefauver Plan
To Withdraw
Washington - (UPD - Backers
of rival Democratic candidates
conceded ; the front - runner
position today to favorite son
Sen. Wayne L. Morse in the
Oregon Democratic presiden
tial primary.
But unless he becomes a
more serious candidate than
he is now regarded, a Morse
victory in the May 20 Oregon
vote would minimize the im
portance of the prospective
five-man contest.
Morse already had been
entered in the Oregon pri
mary by petition before Ore
gon Secretary of State Howell
Appling entered six others
under' discretionary power
granted by state law.
It was immediately an
nounced that two of the six -Adlai
E. Stevenson, 1952 and
1956 Democratic presidential
nominee, and Sen. Estes Ke
fauver (D-Tenn.)-would with
draw. Olher Democrats Entered
Appling also entered Sen
ate Democratic Leader Lyn
don B. Johnson and Sen.
Stuart Symington (D-Mo.),
two undeclared candidates,
along with Sens. John F. Ken
nedy (D-Mass.) and Hubert H.
Humphrey (D-Minn.).
Symington declined to com
ment except to say that he
would not withdraw his na.ne.
Johnson also indicated he
would leave his name on the
ballot.
"My current responsibility
is on the floor of the Senate,"
Johnson said. "I have no plans
to act in any way on the ac
tion in Oregon."
Since neither Johnson nor
Symington has any plans for
entering other state primar
ies, the Oregon vote will pro
vide the only pre-convention
test of their vote - pulling
power.
Enters Nixon Name
For the Republican presi
dential primary, Appling
named Vice President Richard
M. Nixon and Gov. Nelson A.
Rockefeller of New York. But
he said Rockefeller, who de
cided in December against
challenging Nixon, would
withdraw.
With the presidential pri
maries now virtually set, Kennedy-Humphrey
contests will
come in Wisconsin on April
5 and in West Virginia on
May 10 as well as in the five
man Oregon race.
Kennedy faces Morse in
Maryland on May 17 and is
unopposed in New Hampshire
next Tuesday, Indiana on May
3 and Nebraska on May 10.
He has a stand-in, Gov.
Michael V. DiSalle, running
unopposed in Ohio on May 3.
Humphrey is pitted against
Morse in the District of Co
lumbia primary on May 3 and
is unopposed in South Dakota
on June 7.
Group Discusses
Area Planning
Representatives from the
county's ten incorporated
cities met in the county court
room at the courthouse
Wednesday night to discuss a
regional planning organiza
tion. Forty-five persons, includ
ing mayors, city and county
planning commissioners,
councilmen and the county
court, attended. County Judge
Earl Miller conducted the
meeting and County Clerk
E. M. Madden served as secre
tary.
Lloyd Anderson, Eugene, of
the bureau of municipal re
search, explained what possi
bilities and advantages might
be expected from regional
planning. Such a plan could
do much to avoid piece-meal
planning and poorly coordin
ated roads and other county
wide facilities.
All the representatives ex
pressed a willingness to take
part in a new organization
and to plan for a "comprehen
sive development plan for the
entire county."
The group set an organiza
tional meeting for March 23
at 8 p.m. in the county court
rooms.

In Moderate Trading
New York-ftFD-Stocks fell
sharply today in moderately
active trading.
The list recovered slightly
from the early lows in the

through their November re
sistance point to their Oc
tober, 1958, low.
Rails were paced by losses
of more than 2 points in Nor
folk & Western and more
than a point in Chesapeake &
