The smashing victory of Con gressman Carl T. Curtis of Min den in what had been tabbed as i close race for the six-year term in the U. S. senate brought probably the most “grandstand juarterbacking.” Curtis captured 40 percent of the republican vote, sweeping 56 counties in every area o f t h e state. He took three for every two votes won by his closest op ponent, Gov. Robert Crosby. State Sen. Terry Carpenter of Scotts aluff, feared by the party reg ulars throughout the campaign, :ame i n a poor third, trailed b y i,x-State GOP Chairman David Martin of Kearney, who barely ?ot off the ground. What happend? Like most election victories there seemed to be a combination 3f factors. 1. Undoubtedly a leading cause proved to be voter resentment against Govemer Crosby because o f his part in the state tax assessment equalization effort of last year. With the state board of equaliation meeting only a few days before election this year, any voters who had forgotten were given a fresh reminder of what action at the state level could do to their real estate taxes. This was the calculated risk Crosby took in running and it did not pay off. 2. Curtis started off with a “nest egg” of votes in the First congressional district which he had represented for 16 years. All 26 counties in this district stretch ing across the southern part of the state stayed with Curtis. 3. The support of the more conservative faction in the Ne braska republican party. Just how much influence the late Sen. Hugh Butler played cannot be known. The help given Curtis by the majority of Butler’s support ers even after his death undoub tedly aided him to victory. Whether the defeat of Cros by, who had support from the pro-Eisenhower elements of th© party, meant a repudiation of the less conservative wing of of the party was not clear. That’s because Phil Weaver, Falls City automobile dealer and a strong Eisenhower worker, won a convicing victory in his first stab at public office. He captured the First congressional nomination on the GOP ticket, trouncing in all 26 counties a strong, experienced opponent, Ira Beynon of Lincoln. But again there was the un doubted fact that Weaver bene fited from other factors. Par ticulary, he may have gained many votes because of the pres tige of the Weaver name, made famous by the successful can didate’s lather, the late Gov. A. J. Weaver. Two republican congressmen, Roberl Harrison of Norfolk in the Third district, and A. L. Miller of Kimball in the Fourth district, won renomination handily. Curtis will face Former Gov Keith Neville of North Platte in the general election, Weaver will oppose Frank Morrison of Mc Cook; Harrison will be matched with Ernest Luther, Hooper cattle feeder; and Miller will be paired with Carlton Laird, Scottsbluff attorney. In the Second congressional district, Republican Jackson Chase and Democrat James Hart, both Omahans, were running without opposition. A top race in the November election will be the four-year contest—for Senator Butler's un expired term—between Congress man Roman Hruska of Omaha and James Green, Omaha demo crat. Both were nominated by their party central committees after Butler’s death. * * * Democratic Revolt?— One the most interesting occur- i rences of the election was the! capture of the democratic guber natorial nomination by William Ritchie, Omaha attorney. The elderly candidate had charged that the democratic state party leadership was against him and that the “high command” had run Pat Heaton, Sidney attorney, in • an effort to beat Ritchie. Ritchie wasted no time after the election in letting it be known that he intended to have something to say about party j leadership. This will probably include naming the new state party chairman. The present chairman, William Meier of Minden, is the successful candi date for the short term in the U. S. senate. (Meier will oppose Re publican Mrs. George S. Abel, sr., of Lincoln, who swept a field of 16 to win a convincing victory). The fight will probably come out in the open at the democratic post-primary convention at Has tings September 2, where party leaders will be chosen. Ritchie may be able to capitalize on the smoldering resentment of many of the more liberal elements of the state democratic party which feel that “the old guard” has held the reins too closely. * * * 'If's' on Toll Road— A second look at the reports on the feasibility of a toll road in Iowa have brought out that several “if’s” are involved. For one thing, the two en gineering firms which made re ports said that a road wouldn’t be feasible before '1959. That is, traf fic volumes aren’t enough now and would have to increase at the present rate to make the road pay. For the first three years—1959, 1960, 1961—the road might not make enough revenue to meet operating costs, interest, and pay ing off the bonds. So some state money might be needed in an appropriation from the legis lature. The Iowa engineering reports also said that the bonds must be sold at a rate of percent or less. (Toll roads in eastern states have sold at rates of 3 percent or less.) Yet to sell them even at that rate there may have to be an appropriation by the legis lature to furnish ‘‘collateral” for the bonds. The Iowa road is expected to cost around $180 million for 300 miles—or $600,000 per mile. What does this mean for Ne braska? If the traffic volumes won’t be great enough until 1959 to make a toll road pay in Iowa, it may take even longer this much far ther west. If bonds must be sold at 3% percent or less and if it takes a legislature appropriation to make this possible, some revision in thinking may be necessapr in Ne braska. The idea of setting up a turnpike authority in Nebraska was sold to the 1953 legislature on the basis that “it won’t cost the taxpayers of Nebraska a cent.” If it is going to cost tax money, that may be a road of a different color.
