Eyes Are On Buckeye Election for Senator

See No Clear-Cut Issue On S.ate of Economy y ^ — -V — A _ J Special to Central Press TrrASHiNOTON—It appears that neither Republicans or DemoW crats will have a clear-cut issue on the state of the nation’s economy, come Nov. 2—election day. GOP spokesmen are armed with well-documented statistics showing that the United States is enjoying good times. Employment remains high, sales of most products are ranging from good to excellent, and the overall economic level is still very high. . On the other hand, Democrats are usirig unem'plqyment and a decline in farm income as their talking points. Idle workers could be a key factor in some close races. The conclusion, from a political standpoint, appears to be a standoff. However, the Democrats may benefit from the situation because its’s axiomatic that those who protest go to the polls and those who are satisfied are Inclined to stay home. • * * » • EYE ON BUCKEYE—Political observers looking for trends are keeping their eyes on Ohio. The Buckeye State has not elected a Democrat as Senator United States senator in 20 years. If it does this Thomas Burke autumn, experts are convinced it will be a portent of widespread anti-Republican feeling. ^ With the Democrats winning the governorship in normally Republican Maine, the minority party would consider an Ohio victory a real triumph. The Democrats in Ohio have a strong candidate. He is Senator Thomas Burke, the incumbent. His GOP opponent is Rep. George Bender. Ironically, both contestants pin their hopes for victory on winning a huge vote in Cleveland where Burke served as mayor and Bender is Republican leader. Political experts believe that Burke will need the backing of a strong Democratic tide if he is to return to the United States Senate. • • • • • WINDFALLS—Since the disclosure of scandals in the Federal Housing administration, FHA Boss Norman P. Mason has been getting all sorts of mail. One letter from Louisiana was priceless. Mason says it was written in "a shaky handwriting, suggesting that the man who wrote it was advanced in years—or covering up his identity.” It read: "Sir—I’ve been reading about windfalls in the paper. I would like to build about a $10,000 house and get about a $2,500 windfall. Please send me instructions how to do this ” Mason said the man signed his name, gave his address and then added the following: *PS.—Never mind building the house. Just sena ..e the windfall $2,500.” After reading the letter, Maaon wondered whether his hard fight to clean up the FHA is making much headway—at least as far as the home folk are concerned. • ’ • • • • DRAFT SQUABBLE—You can look for a big battle In Congress next year over the administration’s proposal to extend the draft law anu set up a stronger system of military reserves. The draft question, with its direct effect on the nation’s voters, always provides a lot of fireworks in the House and Senate. This year won’t be any exception, despite the turbulent world situation. After long and heated debate, however. Congress probably will go ahead and extend the selective service law* for another year. It is also expected to adopt the new reserve proposal. The administration's plan, given top legislative priority for next year by President Eisenhower, would compel men leaving the armed forces to join active reserve units.
