Oregon's Freshman Senator DETROIT
To Support U.S. Israel Policies Sen, Morse, Elman

By FRANK SIMONS

Displaying a frankness that !s
refreshing in political circles,
Richard L. Neuberger, freshman
Senator from Oregon, breezed
into town to address last Satur-
day's Roosevelt Day Dinner,
sponsored by the Detroit Ameri-
cans for Democratic Action.
The Senator, first Democrat
to be elected to the Senate from
Oregon in 40 years, supported
the Eisenhower administration's
policies abroad, while lashing
domestic issues as being vested
in special interest.
Six-foot Sen. Neuberger, who
joins Herbert H. Lehman as the
second Jewish Senator in Con-
gress, gave new dignity to the
phrase "I don't know." He ex-
plained that after only five
weeks in the Senate, he is "im-
pressed by how little I know
about foreign affairs."
Long a supporter of Israel,
- Sen. Neuberger believes the
United States should be pre-
pared to make the same in-
vestment in the Jewish state
as it .did in its old West. He
declined comment on the arms
for Arabs question proposed
by the State Department.
Sen. Neuberger stated that he
supports the Lehman proposal
for revision of the McCarran-
Walter Immigration Act. The
bill as amended, would liberalize
immigration policies prohibited
by the present law, and enable
would-be emigrants to reach
these shores.
Asked about application of the
Smith Act to Fascist groups,
Sen. Neuberger said that if the
Act is- being used to ferret out
Communists it most • certainly

should be applied to neo-Fas-
cists as well.
He explained that a person
passing suddenly from private
life into the public eye is ex-
pected to be an expert on every-
thing from "beer and light wine
to cornflakes."
"How" he added, "can Dick
Neuberger come up with a
solution to the problem of
military training when two
experts such as the Presi-
dent and 43eneral Ridgeway
can't agree.
. "It's as if x-rays are scrutin-
ized by Dr. X and Dr. Y, who
disagree on a diagnosis, and so
they call in Sen. Neuberger for
his opinion," he said.
Neuberger blasted the Admin-
istration's proposal for a $101,-
000,000,000 road-building plan
while Providing "only meager
loans for the country's desper-
ate lack of adequate classroom
space for schools."
He blamed McCarthyism and
the willingness of the nation to
call any intellectual movement
"subversive" on a "know nothing
spirit," and added that the only
way to provide a cure is through
more and better education.
"There is great utility in an
adequate transport system," the
Senator said. "but is it of more
importance than the minds of
future generations of Ameri-
cans?"
He deplored the fact that
charges have taken the place
of evidence in attacking peo-
ple in and out of public life.
He mentioned having received
the same letter from 50 em-
ployees in a firm in Oregon
asking him to reject the ap-
pointment of John Harlan as
Supreme Court Justice.
The letter made only charges,
with no actual evidence to give
support to contentions that he
was unfit for the position. Neu-
berger's answer to all 50 con-
stituents was a call for substan-
tiation.
A newspaperman by profes-
sion. Sen. Neuberger still writes
his own statements and speeches.
He fears, however, he will not be
able to continue under present
pressure.
He says his wife, Maurine, who
is now serving a two-year term
in the Oregon Legislature, will
quit politics after her term ex-
pires. He credits her for much of
his success, explaining that the
reason Mrs. Neuberger is such a
good politician is because she is
not interested in politics.
Sen. Neuberger, at 42, is one
of the four youngest men in the
Senate. He started his career
on the Oregonian, a Portland
newspaper, and. continued even
while serving in the Oregon
Legislature. He is also the au-
thor of children's books, and has
written books on the Northwest,
including one on Lewis and
Clark.
