Against the measure were Angus Newton, Klamath Falls in terior decorator and active in various civic and fraternal organ izations, and Cecil Edwards, of Salem and Portland, official in the Oregon Taxpayers Finance Com mittee and. ex-presidlng steward of horse racing in' Oregon.

Edwards turned to the Bible to answer Holloway's charges. He quoted Uie words of Moses from Exodus: "Who ruled thee a prince to Judge over us"?
