CAPITOL NEWS -
Will Yaldemar Accede to Draft
Or Will He Oppose Senator Butler?
•
LINCOLN—This was a week of
decision for F. Valdemar Peter
son.
The dome-like forehead of Ne
braska’s governor has been
wrinkled in thought the past sev
eral days as he pondered his po
litical future.
Should he accede to the “draft"
movement launched by the lead
ers of the Republican party in
Nebraska and become a candidate
for the Third District congres
sional seat, succeeding the late
Rep. Karl Stefan?
Or should he go through with
his plan to challenge the reelec
tion bid of Omaha’s white-haired
Sen. Hugh Butler?
* • •
Tough Choice—
It was a difficult decision. To
give in to the party draft, thus
avoiding the showdown with But
ler which the party leadership
dreads, would mean the sacrifice
of Peterson’s political ambitions.
He wants to be a senator, not a
representative.
As a senator—if he worked
hard at it—he could be a real in
fluence. He has demonstrated
considerable talent in that di
rection. As a member of the
house of representatives, he
would probably be lost in the mob
of 435, without prestige, without
the all-important seniority.
On the other hand, there s
no assurance he could beat
Butler. The governor's sup
porters are frank to admit that
about all they would have to
shoot at is the 73-year-old sen
ator's he-alth.
He has been hospitalized late
ly for treatment of what he said
was a recurrence of a football
knee injury but the Peterson peo
ple hint darkly that it was some
thing far more serious.
• • •
No Choice—
The hardnosed people in the
party maintained the governor
could stop worrying: he had no
choice. “We’ve got him sewed
up,” said one young wheelhorse.
He didn’t sound happy about it.
“If he doesn’t play ball with
us,” said the “practical” politician,
“it’ll be suicide.”
Whether he plays ball or not,
even the governor would admit
he hadn’t much time. It’s less
than 2 weeks till the 21 members
of the Republican state central
committee who live in the Third
District meet in Columbus to
name their man.
At week’s end, Peterson was
still undecided.
*
Bad Choice—
At least one group of men
thought that the backers of the
draft-Peterson move might have
outsmarted themselves. A group
of Lincoln businessmen, who had
as their spokesman Attorney J.
Lee Rankin, said the GOP leader
ship had made a bad choice.
“We’re opposed to making deals
to trade public offices within the
party,” Rankin said.
The lawyer said he had con
tacted GOP (members outstate and
had found their reaction to his
stop-the-draft proposal “better
than I expected. ’
Because it appeared to be
their last chance to "get out of
the box." Peterson's friends
were relying heavily on Ran
kin's efforts. But it was a pret
ty long shot.
• • •
Good Choice—
While the Peterson affair occu
pied the center ring of Nebraska
► j
politics, there was some lesser ac
tion.
State Sen. Hugh Carson, of
Ord, w’ho is the third man in the
race for the Republican nomina
tion for governor, appeared to
have made a good choice in tinrv
ing his demand for a special ses
sion of the legislature to raise
the ceiling on old age assistance
payments.
While his opponents, Robert
Crosby, of North Platte, and
Victor Anderson, of Lincoln,
have been busy conducting or
thodox, GOP-type campaigns,
Carson has been the maverick.
shotgunning his criticism at
Peterson's administration gen
erally, but keeping his pattern
pretty well aimed at the state
highway department, always
fair political game and gener
ally unpopular with the farm
ers.
This week, Carson lined up his
sights on the city voters and
filed a blast in favor of a hike
in the old age grants. He told
the governor he was proud that
he had voted for a $10 increase in.
the maximum payment, now set
at $55.
Peterson declined to comment
on Carson’s letter, but an aide
sneered, “You know what this is,
p-o-l-i-t-i-c-s.”
