The only contests that have really "sparked" m the state are those for national committeeman. Voters will find this office first on their ballots. . ' Ben Dorris is putting up a strong fight for the repub lican post, and in the last week he has received en couraging support in his effort to oust the veteran Ralph Williams. Mr. Dorris is getting help from persons who feel that the party could stand some new leadership m the office of national committeeman, and see in the energetic, forward-looking Dorris the man to supply that need. - This newspaper agrees with that viewpoint Word from outside is that Howard Latourette is re garded as the man to beat for national committeeman on the democratic side. This should spur the friends of Claude McColloch of Klamath county to new efforts, for McColloch has a chance to beat Latourette if up-state democrats will join in the Klamath mans support. Dr. Wood of Portland is the other outstanding candidate. ; McColloch's chances lie in Wood and Latourette split ting the Portland vote. .. Victories for Dorris and McColloch would help pre vent Multnomah county domination of party affairs in Oregon. , Interest is lacking in the contests for nomination to the United States senate because the results seem to be certain on both tickets, and there even seems little likeli ,hood of anything like a close race in the fall. Senator McNary looks like an easy winner over his opponents for the republican nomination. Those who have been "contacting" voters over the state think that Mayor Mahoney will claim victory over Judge Jeffrey for the democratic nomination. But it is doubtful that, even if that happens. Mayor Mahoney can work up a political storm in the fall severe enough to wreck Mc Nary's ship. The way democratic support has been swinging to McNary in the past week shows how the wind is blowing.

From Other Editors (Corvallls Gazette-Times) Klamath Falls has an ordinance which makes It possible to fine a person under 16 for hanging about a beer parlor or lying about his age. The ordinance Is work ing too. That makes It tough on parents. Instead of farming out their kids to the schools and police officers they have to be responsible for them themselves. Things have come to a pretty pass in this country when parents have to be responsible for their own children. " A backfire seldom makes much noise.

WASHINGTON, May 7 Down town new dealers seem to have been getting a little rough on the Inside lately with catmoi nui men handling the tax bill. That is. there tee evidences of pres sure being brought to bear on reluctant legislators by powers above. The hill men (congressmen are often niiseai'.od lilll-blllles by the down-towners) showed signs ear lier ot dissatisfaction with the new corporation earnings distri bution feature ot the tax bill. This was faintly noticeable among some democratic members of the senate finance committee. On the inside, it was commonly said that tour to six democrats on the com mittee would tear those pages out of the tax draft It no one held back their hands: Now the inside situation is a little different. The political handling ot the bill by the down towners has been exceptionally hard and shrewd. Observers can almost see certain senators squirming in their chairs from the invisible heat upon their backs. Specific cases cannot be cited without . involving , confidences, but the facta are well euough known to alL who have observed developments closely ot late. . a a a INSISTENCE The result Is that those who were expected to alter the ad ministration bill in the senate have found themselves in poli tical . stralghtjackets. Whether they will yet choose to resist or go along peacetuiiy is not de cided. But the situation has swerved around to the point where the oliphant crew of treas ury campaigners tor the bill has the upper hand. . Two weeks ago the ollphant strategists were finding it neces sary to make compromises. Now they are no longer amenable to new compromises and have quiet ly pushed aside some of the old ones. Thus, while some ot the glar ing technical errors of the bill will be eliminated by the eenate, the basic theory ot forcing dis tribution of corporate earnings now is generally expected to be retained. Whether allowances will be made for corporate debt re tirements is not yet clear, a a a POWER The basis of the new heat, of course, is the old fact congress men are running on the same ticket with President Roosevelt and dare not opposehim on any issue on which he Is insistent. Apparently he is now Insistent on the tax issue. For the same reason, Senator La Follette Is not getting any where on hla plan to put heavier income taxes on the small tax payers. That is where more revenue can be most easily ob tained, nut it la not the thing to do In a campaign year. a a SCARE When a democrat bites a demo crat, that's news, these days. Consequently, when Senator Bone threatened a sensational investi gation of the secret police in several government departments he created an inside stir. A dozen newsmen beset the senator to find out what was behind his move. They learned little. Observers say there will be more stir than Investigation. This appeafs to be Bone's pur pose. Some ot his friends have the Idea that government inves tigators are "going too far, that "a scare should be thrown into them." The threat probably will do it, for the next two or three weeks anyway. That there will be senatorial Investigation any time soon is highly doubtful. If there is, it would be tar better from a new deal stand point to have it in the capable and fair hands ot Senator Bone than in the clutching fingers ot an anti-new dealer. a a PRIZE WRITING The Putlltzer prize for report ing this year should go to Amer ican Minister Engert at Addis Ababa. His graphic dispatches evoked the admiration of report ers at this end. Ordinarily En gert's dispatches would have been kept confidential, or censored by the state department, but, inas much as there was no established power in Ethiopia after Haile' Selassie's flight, the department gave them free publicity. For instance, it did not even elim inate his report that .the British had fired into the black rioters early in the game, killing sev eral. . Engert, however, would have to share any prize with newsmen in Addis Ababa. They gave him much of his Information. They had no other way of getting It out. a EFFECTS Results of the Italian conquest, as foreseen by official prophets here, are: Refusal of the U. S. to recognize the territory conquered by Mussolini, withdrawal of sanc tions by European nations, either openly or otherwise, unrest among the blacks and Indians now gov erned by Britain and other colo nial powers and further weaken ing of the League of Nations, a a POLITICS J.
