The Outside World N By FRED DALY Staff Writer Demo Senate Assured Democratic control of the Senate has been assured by a victory by Richard L. Neuberger over Republican Senator Guy Gordon in Oregon. Neuberger's victory gives the Democrats 48 seats in the Senate, plus the support of Independent Oregon Senator Wayne Morse. Hairline decisions in some states left the possibility that official recounts of votes might shift the picture. In New Jersey, Republican Clifford B. Chase wound up 825 votes ahead of Democrat Charles R. Howell with the absentee ballots unaccounted for. Even a sure victory by Case would give the Republicans only 47 votes, one short of the place where Vice-President Bixon could break a tie in their favor. Representative Sam Rayburn of Texas, who will become Speaker of the newly-Democratic-confrolled House, said he and Senator Johnson of Texas, the Senate Democratic leader, have pledged they will co operate with the Republican President on matters "in the interest of the American people." Collins Sent To Viet Nam President Eisenhower has sent General J. Lawton Collins to Indo china on a mission to determine how to help divided Viet Nam from falling completely to the Communists. Collins, former Army chief of staff, will have the rank of ambassador and will serve as a special representative of the President. The trouble-shooting task assigned Collins is expected to result In recommendations by him to Eisenhower for extensive American opera tions designed to stabilize South Viet Nam and bolster the government of Premier Ngo Dinh Diem. , Eisenhower has several hundred million dollars available for spend ing to prop up South Viet Nam against Communism if Collins can come up with a program which will persuade the government and Congress of a reasonable chance for success. Schweitzer In Norway Dr Albert Schweitzer, home to Norway to accept the Nobel Peace Prize awarded him in 1952, said the horrors of the past must lead rar.4 to "hope for the coming of an era in which there will be no war." The world-famous humanitarian said man must abolish war for ethical reasons. ' He added that the United Nations is doing much for peace but is incapable of bringing an end to war. In his acceptance address the 79-year-old doctor, philosopher and musician warned that man has become a "superman" who is growing poorer and poorer through his own power of destruction. New York Investigates Frauds New York Republicans, paced by State Attorney General Nathaniel Goldstein, launched a sweeping investigation of reported voting frauds in the state's gubernatorial election as Averell Harriman's fragile margin of victory bounced up and down with unofficial re-canvass reports. Unofficial reports give 2,554,185 for Harriman and 2,534,528 for Senator Irving M.J.ves, the Republican candidate. The Harriman total included 261,266 Liberal Party votes. Republicans are pinning their hopes of upsetting his election on the official recanvass. Election boards, must make their final reports by November 27.
