GOP Prestige At Stake in New Elections
By LYLE C. WILSON
WASHINGTON (UP)—Republican political prestige, badly damaged this month in Wisconsin, is riding again on a series of elections beginning one week from today in New York, New Jersey and California.
New York and New Jersey come up first on Nov. 1. A mayoralty contest in New York City offer the Republican party a slim chance to win.
Defeat there would not seriously wound the party. An upset Republican victory would be a morale booster at a moment when the Eisenhower administration needs it because of the loss of a congressional seat in Wisconsin.
New York has not elected a mayor on the Republican ticket since 1895 although John P. Mitchell, 1917, and Fiorello H. La Guardia, whose terms spanned 1934-45, were Republicans who accepted fusionist nomination.
Different Story
It is a different story in New Jersey where successors to a Republican governor and a Republican congressman from the 6th district are to be elected. And in California where another staunchly Republican house seat is up for grabs Nov. 10.
The Republicans must win those two congressional by-elections to hold their own in the House of Representatives and their own isn't much right now. The present House score is: Republicans 218, Democrats 214. Independent 1, vacant 2. The Republican majority is the minimum—one. Even so the party is better off in the House than in the Senate where they are only 47 Republicans, two shots of a minimum majority.
Quotations of Presidents Told
NEW YORK (UP)—Three men who have held the office of the President of the United States have disclosed their favorite Bible quotations.
President Eisenhower and Former Presidents Hoover and Truman made the disclosure to Lowell Thomas, well known Columbia Broadcasting System newscaster, who broadcast the quotations during National Bible Week, Oct. 19-25.
Names Two Favorites
President Eisenhower gave Thomas two quotations, recalling Thomas said, that "he used both of them on the greatest day of his life, when he took the oath of office as President of the United States."
At that ceremony, Mr. Eisenhowr er used two bibles, one of which George Washington had taken the oath of office, and the other the one he had used as a cadet at West Point.
Mr. Eisenhower took his oath with the Washington Bible opened at one favorite quotation, Psalm XXVII: 1, which reads: "Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it. Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain."
Sermon On The Mount
The West Point Bible was opened at the President's other favorite passage, 2nd Chronicles VII: 14: "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and will heal their land."
Mr. Truman, asked for his favorite quotation, replied that the people of the country should read the Bible in its entirety, but that he especially recommended the Sermon on the Mount in the Gospel of St. Matthew, as differentiated from the Gospel according to St. Luke.
The version from Matthew begins: "Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven."
Mr. Hoover told Thomas that Proverbs XXIX: 18 was his favorite passage. It reads: "Where there is no vision, the people perish. And he that keepeth the law, happy is he."

The Republicans must win those two congressional by-elections to hold their own in the House of Representatives and their own isn't much right now. The present House score is: Republicans 218, Democrats 214, Independent 1, vacant 2. The Republican majority is the minimum—one. Even so this party is better off in the House than in the Senate where they are only 47 Republicans, two shots of a minimum majority.
GOP Must Win
Not only must the Republican win to hold their own, they must win to avoid morale-shattering. The Republican candidate won New Jersey's 6th last year with almost 64 per cent of votes cast. High Republican tain that district was 68.2 per cent of the total vote in 1946 when the Republicans broke through New Deal-Democratic defenses nationally to win control of Congress. California's 24th district also has been a safe one for the GOP in the past.
Republican candidates won New Jersey's gubernatorial election in 1946 with 57.9 per cent and in 1943 with 52.2 per cent of the vote cast. Here again, Republican defeat would be a severe jolt to party prestige.
The candidates:
New York, for mayor: Haroldiegelman; Republican: Rudolpohalley; Liberal; Robert F. Wagner; Democrat: Polls favor Wagner.
New Jersey, for governor: Paul L. Trost; Republican; Robert B. Meyner; Democrat; Clendenin Ryan. Independent. For Congress: George L. Hetfield; Republican; Harrison A. Williams, Jr.; Democrat.
California; for Congress: Glenard Lipscomb; Organization Republican; John Collier; Independent Republican; George Arnold; Organization Democrat; Irving Markheim; Independent Democrat.
Arnold is the son-in-law of columnist Drew Pearson.
Freeway Park Resident Denies Rape Charge
SANTA ANA—John A. Jackson of Freeway Park faced a jury today in Superior Judge John Shea-court, charged with statutory rape of a 16-year-old girl who is "making up" her story, Jackson declares.
He denies the charge of intimacies with her on several occasions. Attorney Lloyd Verry of Fullerton is defending him. Deputy District Attorney Robert P. Kneeland, appeared for the State as the trial got under way.
The version from Matthew begins: "Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven."
Mr. Hoover told Thomas that Proverbs XXIX: 18 was his favorite passage. It reads: "Where there is no vision, the people perish. And he that keepeth the law, happy is he."
