PAGE SIGHT 1 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON THURSDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1954 Oregon Voters Apathetic Despite Intense Campaign By FAIL W. IIARYEV JR. 8ALEM Promising cheap power by federal development ol the Columbia Basin and assuring the farmer of bigger federal price supports, the Democrats have high hopes of electing congressmen In Eastern Oregon's 2nd District and in the 3rd District (Multnomah County), If they do, they will make the first dent In Oregon's solidly GOP delegation to Congress since 1942. when the late Waller M. Pierce was defeated in his re-election bid In Eastern Oregon. In both districts, the Democrats still have a lead In voter regis tration, as they have had for sev era! years. Tfc Democrats have outgalned the Republicans In the past two years, but the gain Is so small that no marked trend Is ap parent. After talking with political lead' erg and editors in all parts of E ant- em Oregon, I came home with the conclusion that the people aren't very excited about the hottest cam paign the area has had in many years. Al Ullman, 40-year-old Baker real estate man, Is a strong cam paigner against his fellow towns man, Congressman Bam Coon, a rancher. But over in that country, party lines are so. mixed up that the sit uation Is very confusing. In Baker, I found a lot of Demo crats who are supporting Coon, these Democrats' being of the con servative variety. In Malheur County, there are old-line Repub licans supporting Ullman, because they oppose the Idaho Power Co. And In Umatilla County, I found Republican farmers who are sup porting the Democrats. Tnese farmers fere sore about reduced price supports and lower acreage allotments. Leaders In both parties complain that they can't get voters to come out to hear the candidates. This voter apathy la a source of com plaint in the rest cf the state, too. Ullman, Joining In the Democrat io charge that the Republicans are giving away the natural resources, wants a high federal dam at Hells Former Princess Has Daughter AMAMLLO, Tex.

He says the partnership nlftn M th 1TlKnhnwr adminis tration Is a "gtveawa)," and he takes the COP to task for cutting price supports. Coon, who first was elected two years ago, says It's ridiculous to think that the government can do the whole power dam construction lob by itself. He believes me oniy way that the Northwest can get the dams It needs is to let every body build them, including the federal government, private power companies and local power agen cics. Coon says he has worked hard In Conirress for The Dalles. Mc Nary and Chief Joseph dams. He doesn't say what he thinks ol Hells Canyon, asserting that's a question for the Federal Power Commission to decide. Both men are campaigning hard In this vast district, making sever al talks a day.

Jones was considered a strong candidate, too, and the power issue was the same. Secondly, Eastern Oregon always has sent a rancher or farmer to Congress. That fact might work again in Coon's favor.

In the primary, McCall won the nomination over the veteran Rep. Homer D. Angell. The party stal warts, mostly conservative, backed Angell.
