PENSION PLAN
PEOPLE ISSUES
IN ELECTIONS
By The Anocloted Prees
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7 (VP)
Interesting people, pension plans
and an issue involving workers
rights helped to- bring out the
voters today in the western
states.
Democrats worked to get
Helen Gahagan Douglas, former
Broadway and Hollywood ac
tress, into a California con
gressional seat, perhaps as a
rival to Clare Boothe Luce, at
tractive republican campaigner
and congresswoman from Con
necticut. The former actress, wife of
film actor Mclvyn Douglas, is a
warm supporter of President
Roosevelt, and is backed by the
CIO political action committee.
She is opposed by William D.
Campbell, former campaign
manager for Gov. Earl Warren.
A brother of Miss Vivien Kel
lems, Connecticut manufacturer
who caught public attention
through her advocacy of delay
in making income tax payments
and for her alleged correspon
dence with a German count in
South America, is running for
the congressional seat vacated
by army Lt. Will Rogers Jr.
The brother is Jesse Randolph
Kellems, republican. The demo
cratic candidate is Ellis E. Pat
terson, former lieutenant gover
nor. California, Arizona and Idaho
are voting on plans to give their
oldsters $60 a month pensions,
to be financed by sales taxes on
business transactions. Califor
nia's welfare director reported
the plan in that state alone
could cost 8720,000,000 annual
ly, or $40,000,000 more than
was scent in the entire United
States last year for old age se
curity.
-Another California issue is a
proposed law proclaiming the
right of every individual to a
job and guaranteeing him
against interference with the
right whether or not he belongs
to a labor organization. Some
industrial as well as labor lead
ers opposed it as a potential dis
rupter of civilian war effort.
Oregon voters are electing
two senators. To fill the unfin
ished term of the late Charles
L. McNary. they are choosing
between Senator fro rem ouy
. Cordon, republican, and a Port
land livestock . man, Edgar
Smith, democrat.
Contending for the other seat
are republican Wayne L. Morse,
former member of the war labor
board, and Willis Mahoney,
Klamath rails democrat.
Washington's democratic Sen
ator Mon C, Wallgren, whose
term doesn t expire until 1948,
is trying to win the governor-
shiD of his state. ODDosine re
publican Gov. Arthur B. Lang
lie.. If victorious, Wallgren
would be in position to appoint
his own successor in the senate.
Democratic Senator Sheridan
Downey of California, who en
tered politics in the unsuccess
ful; end-poverty movement in
1934, and who has supported
Roosevelt on most major issues,
is opposed for reelection by re
publican Lieut. Gov. Frederick
F. Houser, Both are heavy
weight campaigners.
A former actor and radio en
tertainer, Glen H. Taylor, demo
crat, is making his third attempt
to become a senator from Idaho.
The cowboy trappings of his
early campaigns have disap
peared, tie accused his republi
can opponent. Gov. C. A. Bot-
tolfsen, of isolationism. Bottolf-
sen denied it.
Dalles Man Thought
Drowned In River
; THE DALLES, Nov. 7 (P)
Believed drowned in the Colum
bia river at Celilo falls, Lewis
Elton Carter, 30, The Dalles, is
being sought by authorities.

Carter's companion, that he slip
ped or lost his balance and fell
into the river from a fishing
platform last Friday night.

Details concerning the death
of Asahel Bush. Associated Press
war correspondent and former
Herald and News telegraph edi
tor, killed October 25 on Leyte,
are described in a story carried
in the press section of tho No
vember 6 issue of Time magti-
zi,le- . , , .
T 1 m e Correspondent John
Walker, who followed General
MarArthtir to Lovte. radioed
this account of newsmen under
fire:
"I was sleeping on an iron cot
in a flimsy wooden house, some
thing like a run-down American
beach cottage, in the town of
Tacloban. Several correspon
dents were staying there. Asahel
(Ace) Bush of The Associated
Press and John Terry of the Chi
cago Daily News were in one
room, Stanley Gunn of the Fort
Worth Star-Telegram, Clete Rob
erts of the Blue network and I
in another, John Dowling of the
Chicago Sun in a third.
"At 5 a. m a large Japanese
plane dove low and before any
alarm could be sounded, let go a
salvo of 100-kilogram bombs,
one of which got the street cor
ner 50 feet from our house. The
noise was the loudest 1 have ever
heard. I landed in a sitting posi
tion half out of bed, and hope
lessly tangled in mosquito net
ting. It was very dark and the
air was choking with the reek
of cordite and grit and the fine
dry dust of rotten old wood
work. Mv eyes and nose were
full of dirt. . I was shivering
from panic and excitement, but
at the same time experiencing an
extraordinary sensation of being
completely all right and unhurt,
no matter what horrible thing
had happened.
"A man at my feet said in a
tight voice,. "I'm hit. Can you
help me up? Are my legs
broken? Help me out of this
hole." I reached down and took
hold of Stanley Gunn's hand and
began trying to lift him gently.
A few seconds later when the
other correspondents wobbled in
with flashlights, I realized there
was no hole. I grabbed a towel
and twisted it around his leg for
a tourniquet. Gunn was mag
nificent, m soitc of tho terrible
wounds ne nact suiicrea. no sac
partly up and watched me get
the towel adjusted, and even
held it himself for a while. Clete
Roberts ignored an injured wrist
and started out to find a doctor
and ambulance.
"In the next room, McCarthy
and Dowling were trying to help
Terry. There was nothing any
one could-do for Ace Bush. He
had been instantly killed by a
fragment. His body was virtual
ly unmarked, his face calm and
serene. It was obvious that he
had not known even- a momen
tary flash of Danic or rjain.
"We worked over the two bad
ly wounded men, breaking out
jungle medical kits and putting
on bandages. As we worked we
could hear screams and wailing
outside, for the bombs had rid
dled several Filipino houses. It
wasn't until daylight, when our
injured men had been taken
away in an ambulance, that I
fully realized what happened to
our nouse. The side near the
street was riddled with bomb
fragments. The stuff had gouo
flashing through those fruil
wooden walls like buckshot
through a berry crate. Some of
it had even sliced through tho
walls and partitions and come
out of the far side. The mosquito
net above my bed was ripped in
a dozen places. All I could find
wrong with mo was a few tiny
cuts on the right arm, a tiny
burn on the left hand, and tiny
nick on the left ear.
"Terry had had one blood
transfusion and was definitely
out of danger. Five correspon
dents gave blood for Gunn, who
was much more gravely injured,
and the nurses unquestionably
saved his life. (Later Gunn died
of wounds received in the bomb
ing.) 1 didn t get any work done
that day. Most of it, I sat around
the hospital holding my big head
in my hands and waiting to give
blood if they wanted type zero.
That night I dug myself a slit
trench and slept in it."

Irish Spud Prices
To Remain Same
WASHINGTON. Nov. 7 UP)-
Early white (Irish) potatoes will
cost the consumer about the
same as last year under maxi
mum shipping point prices, OPA
announced today.
The ceilings apply from the
beginning of the season through
June JO. 1845 maximums an
nounced by the office of price
administration were based on
the average return to the grower
as last year's ceilings. OPA said
they were 17 cents a hundred
weight higher than required by
law, but had been recommended
by the war food administration
as necessary to maintain the pro
duction of potatoes at a level
sufficient to meet estimated
needs.
