But both men face problems
as they prepare to tauncn
their final campaign assault
on Labor Day.
'Uphill for Nixon'
Jack S. McDowell, political
editor of the San Francisco
News-Call Bulletin, summed
it up this way:
"Ihis Is a real horse race.
Nixon has and always has had
an uphill fight because of the
preponderance of registered
Democrats. He still has the
job of getting the conservative
Republicans behind him and
at the same time wooing the
Democratic vote.
"But on the other side of
the coin," McDowell added,
"the June primary results
show almost 19 per cent of
the Democrats voted against
Brown. To mc, this Is a point
worth considering."
James B a s e tt, political
analyst for the Los Angeles
Times, rates the Brown-Nixon
contest a tossup.
"The polls haven't altered
our view that the autumn
runoff will be breathlessly
close," Bassett said.
GOP Primary Turnout
He noted that one poll
showed about one out of every
three -voters felt Brown had
done a "poor Job" as gover
nor. Herbert L. Phillips, politi
cal editor of the McClatchy
newspapers, (Sac r a m t n t o,
Fresno, Modesto), Joined In
the prediction of a close race.
But he said he fell the Demo
cratic edge In registration
(56.6 per cent to 40.1 per cent)
gave Brown an advantage.
"The primary results show
ed a substantially larger Re
publican turnout," Phillips
aiH. "Yet. the total Demo
cratic vole In all of the seven
statewide contests was more
than the Republican vote in
every case."
A recent United Press In
ternational poll of all mem
bers of the slate legislature
split strictly along parly lines
on the question of who would
he the November winner.
Party Lint Predictions
But when asked to predict
the margin of victory in a
state with more than 7 mil
lion voters, most of the legis
lators who picked Brown said
he would win by 200,000 to
500,000 votes. Those favoring
Nixon estimated his margin
of victory would be from
only 50,000 votes to a high of
250.000.
On Labor Day, both will
launch a seven day - a work
campaign schedule which by
November will have seen Ihe
two men cover all of the 58
counties in the search for
voles.
They are scheduled for onlv
two face-to-face meetings In
the fall. One will be a tele
vised debate some time In
mid-October. They also will
appear on the same platform
before the UP1 National Edi
tors Si Publishers Conference
in San Francisco on Oct. 1.

communications satellite bill,
Sen. Wayne Morse of Oregon.
Morse told 170 persons who
attended a banquet on the
first day of the three-day
meeting that he opposed Ihe
bill because it was a "give
away to the favored few, the
fruits of billions of dollars
invested in the space program
by the taxpayers."
He said he hoped Congress
