Outs’ Plan Stormy Attacks on ‘Ins' Brooks Wants Debate with Anderson IJNOOLN — Skids are being greased for what could be a stormy fall election campaign. Delegates to the state conven tions of l>oth parties have Ivon selected. The Republicans meet at Alliance Sept. 15, and the Democrats at Omaha June 21. The Democratic candidates namely Frank Morrison, Frank Sorrell and Ralph Brooks, are expected to he vociferous as they try lo oust the Republican team: Sen. Roman Hruska, Gov. Victor Anderson and Lt. Gov. Dwight Burney. Morrison is running against Hruska, Sorrell against Burney and Brooks against Anderson. Brooks, a widely-known after dinner speaker and president of McCook Junior College, will pro bably attack Gov. Anderson on the basis of his stand on taxes. The chief executive has called for better enforcement of assess ments at the local level, stating that if these are not forthcoming the state will have to step into the picture and take control away from the local level. Gov. Anderson said he is not for this approach He would rather have local officials handle Ihe local taxation problems, un der an adequate set of state laws. Sorrell is expected to attack the statehouse administration in general. Morrison, on the other hand, has indicated he is going to at tack Hruska 's record and what he terms failure to protect Ne braska interests. The Democrats have a tough row to hoe. They lost percent agewise in the size of the vote in the primary, while the GOP piled up a wider margin than two years ago. Gov. Anderson and Hruska are popular party leaders. This, plus the fact they are in office, are difficult obstacles for an "out” party trying to make the grade. Democratic leaders have tried unsuccessfully to lure Gov. An derson into a series of debates with Brooks. But the governor has declined, stating he would rather use the free enterprise available to every candidate the press and advertising media. Morrison has indicated he is going to get on the same plat form with Hruska to talk about issues. Morrison did not use the word ‘‘debate” but referred to ‘‘joint discussions”. * • • National Polities— A former secretary of the Navy and now finance chairman for the national GOP had a sharp analysis of labor and its connec tion with politics. Charles S. Thomas of Wash ington, DC., was in Nebraska on the second leg of a cross coun try swing to talk business with GOP finance committees. r ■" Thomas said labor unions no longer are controlled by the laboring man, but are being taken over by "corupt left-wing ers". These leaders. Thomas char ged, are quietly and efficiently gaining control of Congress by selecting their candidates in marginal districts, financing them and getting out the ix'gis trations to elect. Thomas said he is touring the country to alert the businessmen that they must get into politics to save the fret' enterprise sys tem, which he said the Repub lican party represents. • • • New Air Due— Nebraska now is in a new case before the Civil Aeronautics Board concerning local airline service. This case is called the Kansas Oklahoma area investigation. It is separate from the so-called Seven States case under which Nebraska got service for 17 cities. Service in the seven states probably will begin this fall. In the Kansas-Oklahoma mat ter, it probably will 1h> a year or more, before the evidence gets before the CAB. However, Nebraska will pre sent its case July 15 to an exam iner in Topeka, Kans. The state has recommended five routes. Major stops would include: Omaha to Lincoln to Beatrice, Topeka and Kansas City. Omaha to Lincoln, Beatrice, Fairbury, Manhattan, S a 1 i n a , Hutchinson and Witchita, Kans. North Platte to McCook, Gar den City. Dodge City, Wichita. Kearney to Hastings, Salina, Hutchinson and Witchita. urana lsiana xo rmsungs, m«u hattan, Salina, Hutchinson and Wichita. Frontier, Ozark and Central airlines propose to serve on the routes. Proposals of the carriers will bo presented later at a hearing before an examiner in Washington. Holland Harr, State Aeronau tics Director, is enthusiastic about the possibilities of the new routes. * * • (i rassliopper Control— No time should l>c lost now in attempts to control grasshop pers. That’s t h e word fi-om State Agriculture Director E d Hoyt. Hoyt said the hoppers are emerging in grassy areas i n fence rows, waterways and pas tuie lands. They will feed in the hatching areas for several weeks before spreading to nearby fields. Spraying is advised now lx?fore the pests have a chance to move out of the hatching areas. Hoyt said small hoppers are easier to kill and control takes much less time and insecticide than if fax*mers wait until the pests have made their migration from nesting areas.
