‘Hushed’ Favor for Evansville Congressman

Spreads Over State.

By SHERLEY UHL Inconspicuous trial balloons in favor of Charles LaFollette of Evans ville as a likely labor-charming 1946 G. O. P. senatorial candidate, are

drifting over metropolitan Indiana, Factional supporters are puffing

pressing any overt admiration of LaFollette. It fears an “all out” P. A. C. indorsement might have the effect of provoking a “Red smear” against the Evansville congressman. Protection Considered : State P. A. C. chieftains don’t want to make the fidgety, fiery LaFollette a target for anti-P. A. C. sentiment, and thus jeopardize whatever slim chance he might now have of snagging the nomina~ tion. . Indiana P. A. C. headquarters indicated clearly today that if it came to a showdown between LaFollette and say, Henry Schricker, or some other moderate-thinking Democrat in the 1946 senatorial race, LaFollette would get the C. I. O. nod, . P. A. C. spokesmen admited injection of either Clifford Townsend or Sherman (Shea) Minton into the Democrat senate contest would pose a C. I. O. dilemma, if by a long chance, LaFollette were the G. O. P. nominee, “In that case, both slates would be so good, we'd probably have to tell the boys to take their choice,” said one P. A. C. official.

New Dealist, Some Think

LaFollette’s popularity within the Republican organization is limited exclusively to industrial counties. Majority of the G. O. P. leadership, small town folk, shun their Evansville comrade as “much too New Dealish.” LaFollette's stinging no-punches-pulled type of politicking has likewise alienated Republican powers-that-be. Nevertheless, top-drawer G. O., Plers have been publicizing their desire to adopt a more liberal, progressive attitude. LaFollette back-

There is an interesting new Heparture in metropolitan G. O. P. circles this year. Some urban county chairmen, Mr. Ostrom for one, are conferring" with the P, A. C, candidly and cozily. For instance, Mr. Ostrom is searching for a potential 11th district Republican congressional candidate acceptable to the P. A. C. to oppose Louis Ludlow. Mrs. Fern E. Norris, reporter of the supreme and appellate courts, is running for 11th district congressman like Whirlaway used to run in the stretch, which was something to see. But her similar bid last year was throttled by the county organization. John Hughes, a navy veteran, and John Miller have been mentioned as possible: G. O. P. congressional choices,

“The Republican party is “trying to critcize, grave-rob and generally smear its way into power,” Democratic State Chairman Fred Bays charged today. In prepared statements issued {from Democratic headquarters { here, Mr. Bays said G..O. P. Congressman Earl Wilson has suggested “that the Republican party canvass the entire country to see if they can unearth any ideas for a G. O. P. program, “It would be interesting if they could find one or two ideas,” observed the Democratic party chief. He said Governor Gates also “admits an entire lack of G. O. P. pro- | gram. ”

“Below-Belt” Tactics i Accusing Republicans of trying to “destroy” progressive legislation, the state chairman asserted, “I am confident the great body of American people are not going to be {floored by these below-the-belt | tactics.” He sald the Republicans “are afraid to go on record as favoring unemployment,” although, he charged, that was their attitude in
