Republicans Win
Oregon Primary
PORTLAND, Ore. (£>) — Ore
gon’s Sen. Wayne Morse decisive
ly trounced conservative opposi
tion to win Republican renomina
tion in last week’s primary elec
tion.
Since 1914 Republican nomina
tion has been tantamount to elec
tion. To those who contended that
he voted more often with Demo
crats than with Republicans,
Morse promised to keep on voting
“independently upon issue as I
see them.”
Morse defeated Dave Hoover, a
former Los Angeles deputy sheriff
who became a dairy farmer in
Oregon’s nigged coastal range.
On a basis of unofficial returns
from 1321 of Oregon’s 2,017 pre
cincts, More led 64,270 to 37,417.
John McBride, a House committee
clerk in Washington, D. C., trailed
with 8507.
Hoover, called “a reactionary
and an isolationist” by Morse, ad
mitted defeat.
Of the 36 counties, Hoover car
ried only two.
Morse’s Democratic opponent in
the November election is in doubt.
Howard Latourette, Portland, for
mer Democratic national commit
teeman, held a 35,732 to 34,006
lead over Dr. Louis A. Wood, re
tired university economics profes
sor.
The State’s four Congressmen,
all Republicans, won re-nomina
tion. Rep. Homer A. Angell, Port
land, had double the number of
votes tallied by both of his oppon
ents combined. The other three
Congressmen were unopposed.
Inez Reynolds arrived from
Seattle yesterday to be a waitress
for the North Pole Bakery.
Jap Princess Taka
Weds Commoner
TOKYO (iP)—Princess Taka, at
tractive second daughter of Em
peror Hirohito, Saturday became
plain Mrs. Toshimichi Takatsuka
sa, wife of a $20-a-month museum
attendant.
The wedding took place at the
home of Prince Takamatsu, Hiro
hito’s brother. The austere Shinto
ceremony was formal and private
—only about 30 members of the
two families attended.
Taka, 20, wore a shokeiko, an
cient ceremonial dress. A purple
hakama billowed like a skirt over
a pure white kimono. Covering
both was a brilliant red robe with
full sleeves, knee-length in front
and lengthening to a train in back.
Takatsukasa, 26, wore formal
western morning clothes.
The newlyweds will live in
rented quarters in the home of
former Adm. Saburo Hyakutake.
There will be no honeymoon.
Takatsukasa reported back on his
job today.
Taka, who gave up her royal
rank and privileges, will take over
management of her husband’s
! household, for which she has
trained 18 months.
The newlyweds won’t have it
too tough. The government appro
priated the equivalent of $13,500
for wedding expenses, and gave
the princess $100,000 to “maintain
her dignity.”
Eugene W. Norton, who is sta
tioned in Juneau with the depart
ment of labor, is visiting Nome in
the interest of apprenticeship and
the prospects for apprentices in
this area in the various fields of
work. He will be at the Wallace
Hotel until Wednesday.
