I Household Scrapbook | By ROBERTA LEE I o o Curtains New curtains should be soaked overnight in salt water before washing. They are usually full of lime and it is difficult to get them clean. They will be much easier to handle after their salt bath and it will not be necessary to use so much soap powder.

Michigan Governor Wins For 6th Time Sen. Chas. Potter Is Also Defeated DETROIT (UPI) — Gov. G. Mermen Williams was carried to an unprecedented sixth term today by a Democratic tide that swept Republican Sen. Charles E Potter out of office and left Michigan without a major GOP office holder. Williams, one of many candidates to take, on new glitter as a 1960 presidential contender overwhelmed Paul D. Bagwell, a poliocrippled college professor who waged the strongest campaign against Williams in a decade. Potter, the last Republican to hold a major state office in Michigan, was trounced by Lt. Gov. Philip A. Hart, Williams’ popular sidekick for the past four years. Williams led Bagwel 1,124.959 to 931,025 with 4,381 of Michigan’s 5.162 precincts reporting. Hart was ahead of Potter, 1,102,791 to 921.433. Michigan Democrats gained their first House seat from Republicans when Rep. Robert J. Mclntosh conceded defeat to James J. O’Hara. Republicans now control the Michigan congressional delegation by an 11-7 edge. Williams issued his victory statements before Bagwell formally conceded. “It is evident the voters have repudiated the Republican ‘smear Michigan’ campaign and placed the blame for recession and unemployment where it rightly belongs,” said Williams, who had been accused of creating an unfavorable climate for industrial development.” Wins Trustee Race By Only Two Votes BEDFORD. Ind. (UPD— Fred Canada, a Democrat, was elected Indian Creek Twp. trustee over Republican Wayne Butler, 333 to 331. Lawrence County normally is heavilj’ Republican. Vance' Hartke carried it by 400 votes in his senatorial race with Governor Handley, the first time a Democratic candidate for a major office had swept the county since 1934.
