Morse Refuses To Go on Defensive In Shrugging Off Effects of Books Portland, Ore. - (ITD - By plunking down a few cenls, Oregon voters can buy two books about Sen. Wayne Morse, the state's Maverick lawmaker. Morse, campaigning for his fourth consecutive Senate term, doesn't like the books "The Tiger in the Senate" by Washington newsman A. Robert Smith, and "The Rec ord of Wayne Morse" by form er Republican National Com mitteeman Harrison E. Spang ler. Neither do other Demo crats in Oregon. Young Demo cratic organization President Merlyn Gubser called the Spangler book "filled with un truths, misquotations and mis leading information." Effect Shrugged Off Morse, until 1952 a Repub lican and now a Democrat shrugs off the effect of the books with one caustic statement: -7" of r r 1 r SEN. WAYNE MORSE A Republican Target "I have nothing to be de fensive about. God couldn't create a person as bad as the opposition would like to por tray me." Challenging the volatile Morse is wealthy Portland businessman Sig Unander. a good vote-getter when elected state treasurer in 1952 and re elected in 1956. Unander has been running hard, speaking daily and traveling throughout the state, while Morse has been tied down in Washington tending to the business of the Senate. Although Morse has been tagged a prime Republican target in the West this year, observers concede it would take a Republican miracle to unseat him. Would Help Democrats He has been stressing his record of gaining public works projects for Oregon and has so far refused to get in volved in a personal cam paign. A victory for Morse would simply help shore up the Dem ocrats' favorable situation in the 1 1 Western slates from I the Rocky Mountains west, j excluding California where incumbent Edmund G. Brown (and former Vice President !

In the Senate, with 11 seats involved, Democrats now hold nine and the Republicans two. In the House, the Demo crats sport a 15-12 margin and with eight governorships up for election this fall, it's a 4-4 standoff. In California, 38 House seats are at stake, up 8 be cause of population gains. The Phoenix Grange Sels Candidates Night Phoenix Grange will serve a ham dinner at 6:30 p.m. Sat urday, Oct. 20, preceding the "Candidates Night." A charge will be made for the dinner. All state candidates will be represented and local candi dates plan to attend.

Richard Richards. Not Abiding Issue The "New Frontier" sup port of Kennedy isn't an abiding issue in the West, It's more of a side issue and sup porting the administration down the line can work to the disadvantage of some law makers in such states as Ari zona and Montana. In many slates, local issues have sparked the most vigor ous campaigns. An example is Idaho, where gambling has become a major rallying point between incum- Medford tribune SECTION C MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1962 PAGES 1 to 8 bent Republican Gov. Robert E. Smylie and Democrat Ver non K. Smith. Smith favors local option, casino type gambling for Idaho, and on this issue he grabbed 43 per cent of the vote in a six-man Democratic primary. But Smylie, who seeks an unprecedented third four-year term, calls Smith's plan "a fiscal phony and a moral fraud" which is unconstitu tional. The Slate Supreme Court in IH54 threw out gam bling in Idaho on grounds it violated a constitutional lat tery ban. Changes Proposed Legislative Safary Klamath Falls A re- part of a citizens committee to Senate President Harry Boivin Wednesday outlined suggestions for changing the salary and reimbursement of Oregon legislators. The report recommends a salary of $150 per month and $15 per diem every day the legislature is in session, up to a maximum of 110 days. The committee recommend ed elimination of all present expense allowances with the exception of one round trip from the legislator's home to Salem at 10 cents per mile. To be eliminated would be the present $75 per month ex pense money in sessions and $150 per month between ses sions. Boivin said. "I think the committee report is excellent and I know it will be a use ful guide in determining fair compensation for the legisla ture." Making the report were Clay Myers, Portland, chair man; James O. Burns, Con don; Car Gilson, Portland; James J. Walton, Salem, and William StoSSmack, Bend. mm X3 TOPS !M QUALITY!
