The three contests which appear to have caught the attenion of voters are the fights for the GOP nom- 4 inations for representative in gress, assemblyman from the Florence-Forest-Oneida counties district and district attorney. The most hotly-contested battle has been the 0 campaign between Rep. Alvin E.

O'Konski and Andy Borg, Douglas county district attorney, for the Republican nomination for the 10th district congressional seat. Speeches, newspaper and radio advertising, house-to-house distribution of literature and personal A- calls on voters have featured this fight. The hot contest not only has attracted the interest of voters in the 10th district but throughout Wisconsin. A third candidate is in the field for the GOP nomination, Mrs. Irene Powers, a Superior school teacher, but accorded little chance.

Other Hot Contests. In the two other Republican battles, Assemblyman Clarence W. Gil- 1 ley of Rhinelander is seeking a second term in the state legislature and faces the opposition of Paul R. Al- fonsi, Minocqua school educator and former assemblyman from the Iron-Vilas counties district, while A Dist. Atty.

Forest Rodd also seeks a second term arid has as his opponent a former holder of the oftice, Orville A. DuBois. Six other Republican county officers are without opposition in the primary. Three of these also are without opposition in the general J. Takala, county trea- surer; William J.

n. For the Democrats, the two contests of area interest the comparatively quiet campaigns of Herman Lampe, Winter "storekeeper, and Rodney Edwards, young Superior attorney, for the congressional nomination, and the even more subdued campaigns of'Earl A. Nehls, Third ward alderman and supervisor, and Chester J. Irish, Laona man, for the assembly nominate tion. The Democrats' only incumbent county officer, Mrs.

Agnes Verage, has no opposition and is assured of re-election. Three other Democrats seek county office and ate unopposed in the Jossart of Minocqua, who is after the county -clerk's job; Bernard A. Bozile, town J'of Pine Lake, who seeks the sheriff's job after being defeated two years ago when he opposed Krouze for the Republican nomination, and Vernon M.

Voters generally have shown little interest in the campaigns for state offices, and candidates have complained that they find it difficult to stir up action. There has been little demand lor absentee voting blanks. Rhinelander has 4,512 persons registered and eligible to vote tomorrow. Two years ago, with 4,253 voters registered, the number of ballots cast in the city was 2,414.

Marking the first actual use of the new home front control powers, the orders had two aims: To check inflation and to conserve, scarce and essential materials for defense purposes. The Commerce Department forbid businessmen to accumulate lum- Civil Defense Plan For Cities, States Announced by U. S. WASHINGTON The government unwrapped today a master civil defense plan telling states and cities that home front ties can be cut in half with trained experts and millions of volunteers. President Truman approved the plan, which lacked any price tag or timetable.

Along with a bill to create a new, separate federal civil defense administration, Mr. Truman sent it to a Congress which probably will do nothing about authority or money for the program before next year. The pr.ogram is built around: 1. Cooperation on a big scale between federal, state and local governments, with each sharing some of the responsibility and expense. There is an outline for the kind of organization needed at every level.

List Critical Attack Areas. 2. Providing pre-attack precautions and post-attack help mainly for- some 140 "critical target arias" Cities and installations ber, cement, steel, copper, aluminum, tin, rubber, nylon yarn, certain chemicals and certain other mater' ials, beyond a "practical minimum working inventory." Enforceable penalties as stiff as a year in prison and a $10,000 fine, the order applies not only to the firm that buys but also to the firm that delivers the goods. The ban on over-easy installment credit was put into effect by the federal reserve board, after a 10- day advance notice. Terms for autos, household appliances, furniture, and home repairs were tightened.

The order is applicable to sellers lenders and consumer-buyers alike and is backed by penalties up to a year in prison and a $5,000 fine It forbids terms any easier than these: For autos, new or used, onc-thirc down and 21 months pay. (Trade ins count toward the down pay ment.) For appliances, 15 per cent down and 18 months to pay. The appliances covered are refrigerators, food freezers, radio and television sets, phonographs, cooking stoves, ranges, dishwashers, ironers, washing machines, clothes driers, sewing machines, vacuum cleaners, air conditioners, and dehumidifiers. For furniture' and rugs, 10 per cent and 18 months. For home repairs, alterations and improvements, 10 per cent and 30 months.

Listed articles costing less than $100 are exempt from the down payment requirements, but are subject to the pay-off limits. Installment loans for purchase of the listed articles carry the same restrictions as installment sales of those articles. Installment loans on all other articles not listed are required to be paid off within 18 months. Credit at Peak Figure. Reserve board officials said those terms are tighter than credit allowances.

Carl W. Thompson, candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor, declared the "average Republican voter has not the slightest voice in either the selection of his party candidates or the policies which the party machinery determines in his name." Speaking at Madison Sunday Thompson said, "The men who contribute to the Republican voluntary committee are investing in the kind of government that pays off for them." "The only tax reduction the people of Wisconsin have known since the Republicans came to power 12 years ago" was the repeal of the 60 per cent surtax by the GOP-controlled legislature in 1943, Thompson added. He contended this repeal "was demanded by the men who contribute to the campaign chest of the Republican voluntary committee because it fell heaviest on those best able to pay." Jpholds Human Rights. In Milwaukee Sunday night Heny Reuss, candidate for the Demb- ratic nomination for attorney gen- ral, said, "The state Democratic rogram has a whole section on hu- nan rights.

It advocates improvement in such matter as housing, em- loyment and education. In con- rast, the GOP platform is com- letely silent on these vital issues." "At the last session of the legisla- ure, for instance, a bill was passed without dissenting vote, prohibiting acial discrimination in the national guard," Reuss said. He cited this as Wisconsin's fine record on human rights." La Vern Dilweg, seeking the Democratic nomination for U. S. senator, told a Green Bay audience 'something is missing in what we bought was an air-tight plan to lelp pilot the world back to poli- and economic health." Our job "is one of moral and spiritual leadership," Dilweg said; "This is the vacuum we have neg- tered cast.

Bringing civil defense even- ually down to the individual every person know What ic must do in an Careful Study. Mr. Truman suggested in a message that Congress "consider this report carefully over the next few weeks" as a basis for passing legis- ation "in the near future." "I believe," he said, "this report presents a sound and workable out- ine of the civil defense problems we face, and what the federal, state and local governments should do to meet The President urged that governors and mayors, who are being sent copies, "move ahead rapidly" with heir own civil defense plans. Until Congress passes permanent Mr. Truman said, he in- ends to establish a temporary civil defense administration to provide central leadership.

Calling on "every person and every community" to play a part, plan says: "Granted a few minute's warning, casualties could be reduced 50 per cent through proper organization and training in civil defense. More important, civil defense could spell the difference between defeat with slavery for our people and victory in a war thrust upon us." Cost Unknown. Nobody seems to know at the moment how much the program would cost or how long it would take to develop it to the point where America, its vital industries and its people will have the best possible chance of living through an atom bomb war. One civil defense official said it might be two years, maybe more, after Congress acts. The national security resources board (NSRB) put the plan together in a 162-page prospective besl seller called "United States Civil Defense." The master plan'contemplates civil defense on a much bigger, different scale then the stirrup pump- sand bucket efforts of World War II.

Replacing Denham Dig Task for Truman WASHINGTON (ff) Ousting of Robert N. Denham as a key Taft- iartley labor official left Presidenl Truman today with the task of filling one of the hottest spots in Washington, and congressional elections are less than two months away. Mr.

Truman fired Denham Saturday as general counsel of the Na- Labor Relations Board. Den- fiam, a Republican, has held this job ever since a GOP Congress created it three years ago in enacting the Taft-Hartley law. Keen interest is being shown ir who will be his successor. No one seemed to have any good guesses. Whoever is chosen must be con firmed by the Senate.

Consideratior of the appointment there couk bring an explosive labor debate ii which both Republicans and Demo crats would seek every possible po litical advantage. Congress may go home this week and if the President waits until thi recess to make an appointment, hi appointee can serve until the Senati returns and acts upon the mattci Mr. Truman's stated reason fo accepting the resignation which hi asked Denham to send in was tht "deep-seated" differences between Denham and the five-man board.

Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Jacob Malik has insisted that Russia has given the Korean Communists no supplies since 1948, when the Soviet army was withdrawn froro North Korea, There was no indication what sort ol munitions referred to nor whether bis reference to Chinese "traAued manpower' meant Jto fill.

Fairchild said that, "without appeasing, without dropping our I favor conferences with Russia and other nations in an attempt to resolve this world conflict." "I am not optimistic about such conferences, but I see nothing to lose by constantly on every level, inside and outside the U. N.

If we fail, we shall be no worse off than we are now. If we succeed, we shall have won the hope of that peace for which all of us yearn," he said, Senate-House Unit Okehs Anti-Red Bill WASHINGTON A Senate- House conference committee agreed today on terms of a bill to crack down on Communists. The group, led by Sen. McCarran described the measure as "even tougher in some respects" than previously passed by both the Senate and House, and woven together by the conferees in this compromise bill. The bill now goes to the House, which plans to consider it Wednesday, and then to the Senate.

President Truman had declined to say whether would sign or veto the measure but has promised a quick decision. It was reported in advance the compromise retains a Senate provision for internment of subversives in certain emergencies. Another principal feature, not in substantial dispute because it was common to both the House and Senate measures, would require the registration of Reds and Communist- front organizations. The legislation also would bar Communists from federal jobs or work in defense plants, outlaw conspiracies to set up foreign-controlled dictatorships, give the government new legal weapons ydings, Wiley xpected to Win Primary Tests By the Associated Press Senators Tydings (D-Md.) and Waley (R-Wis.) appeared headed for Denomination today and tomorrow in primaries which virtually wind up the picking of slates for ten Nov. 7 congressional elections.

Massachusetts, without a senatorial contest this year, picks major party nominees for governor and House seats in voting tomorrow.

Tydings Is Target. Interest in today's Maryland balloting centers on the Tydings race and the selection of GOP opponent who is expected to carry on the criticism which Tydings' primary opponents have levelled against him. This criticism concerns the Senate investigation of Communists-in-government charges-made by Sen. McCarthy Tydings headed the Senate foreign relations subcommittee which looked into them. John A.

Meyer, Baltimore attorney and former congressman, and Hugh J. Monaghan, another Baltimore attorney, have been blasting away at Tydings in the primary campaign with the accusations that he "white-washed" the investigation of McCarthy's charges. Tydings, seeking a fifth term, has retorted that as long as he can prevent it there will never be "government by unfounded character assassination." John Markey, who was nosed out by Sen. O'Conor (D-Md.) in the 1946 senatorial contest, and John Marshall Butler, who recently resigned from the Baltimore city service commission, are battling it out for the Republican nomination.

According to three other Appleton couples who had gone to the landing strip to watch the Holzems take off, the plane, a Beechcraft Bonanza, appeared to falter shortly after it took off from the field about 4:30 p. m. It was about 100 feet in the air when it suddenly plunged into the ground near the end of the landing strip. Plane Burned.

Steel Issue Puts LONDON Informed sources say a threatened Labor party revolt forced Prime Minister Attlee to risk defeat by putting the touchy steel nationalization issue to a house of contfjions vote tomorrow.

They said Attlee fully realized that placing the appointment of a government steel board before commons in the midst of the defense crisis would expose his regime to an attempted knockout-blow by the Conservatives. The house debates tomorrow a motion to censure against the government by Winston Churchill, Most believe Attlee's government will squeeze through the vote, but perhaps by the narrowest possible margin. But should the Laborites lose the vote, a general election would follow. The independent Sunday Observer had this explanation of Attlee's action: "If Mr. Attlee had proceeded to announce postponement of steel nationalization, he would have risked a serious party revolt.

The Labor M. who are uneasy about rearmament are mostly ers, for whom the nationalization of key industries is a fervent article of faith. "A postponement at the present juncture would have given them a double reason for mistrusting the government. They would have felt that the minister, having led them in a aubious direction with his foreign policy, was now showing himself to be not even a good Socialist in domestic affairs." The controversial iron and steel act becomes effective Oct. 1 but the government could have postponed its operation.

A former Wilton High School principal and his wife were injured fatally Sunday when their car was struck by the Northwestern Road's "400" after it stalled on a crossing at Wilton. William Harrison, 76, was killed instantly and his wife died early today at a Sparta hospital.

Force oi 40,000 Men Within Three Miles of Key City TOKYO American Marines stabbed to within three miles of Seoul today at the head of 40,000 massing Allied troops ordered to make the Red Koreans surrender or die. The leathernecks spearheaded the 10th corps liberation force now rolling in a crushing tide on the Red- held South Korean capital.

Seoul's liberation appeared to be at hand. The Marines' vanguard was about one mile from Yongdungpo, a suburb. The allied force has to cross the Han to take Seoul itself. Airfield in Use. Fifteen miles northwest of the city, a second Marine column hurled back five pre-dawn assaults and secured Kimpo airfield.

Then it drove north to the banks of the Han. Kimpo airfield already is in use as an Allied base with an excellent paved runway. Official reports Sunday that Marines were fighting in the outskirts of Seoul proved premature at that time. Red Koreans seized the city June 28, three days after they invaded the United Nations-sponsored republic. South Korean forces blew the Han's rail and road bridges then.

Allied planes repeatedly mangled the bridge remnants. As the big offensive mounted at both ends of South Korea, Allied planes showered -the Reds with 3,000,000 leaflets warning them they give or die now. '-beachhead, an American Resort Fire Fa to I To Michigan Boy, 6 MICHIGAMME, Mich. (IP) A boy died early today in a fire that destroyed a resort establishment on Lake Michigamme in the western end of Marquette county. Victim was Marshall Devore Ramsay, 6, son of Mr.

and Mrs. Francis Ramsay, operators of the Holiday House resort. Members of the Michigamme volunteer fire department, two miles away, discovered the boy's body near his bed after fight-, ing the flames for more than an hour. The parents and two younger sons escaped uninjured. Alcoholism Rising Among Women, View DENVER Women's Christian Temperance Union official said today the spread of beer and liquor sales to the corner store has increased alcoholism among women.

"The number of women addicts has skyrocketed with the opening of more and more beer and whiskey retail places in residential neighborhoods," Violet T. Black of Evanston, 111., told the WCTU convention. "Simultaneously, radio beer commercials and some whisky advertising in newspapers and magazines has been pointed by their distiller sponsors to appeal to women both in pictures and in wording." Miss Black, WCTU treasurer, placed the number of women alcoholics and chronic drinkers at QQQ in the U. S. Korean battalion crossed the Naktong river and set up a firm bridgehead on the west bank.

Allied forces had withdrawn to the east bank Aug. 4. U. S. Second Division troops made the crossing west of Changnyong.

The Reds drove back three U. S. patrols which tried to cross at another point. On the northeastern front of the old beachhead, two Allied battalions crossed to the north bank of the Kyongsan river. The river runs just south of Pohang port on the east coast.

Allied.forces mostly made steady progress all along the 125-mile southeast perimeter. But the Reds resisted fiercely at several points. There were indications the Reds in the Allied were pulling forces from the south-, east front to defend Seoul. AP Correspondent Relman Morin, in Inchon-Seoul beachhead, reported evidences of suicidal resistance by surprisingly weak and wild-eyed Red forces. Allied pilots spotted a fast Red motorized column racing north from Taejon, 90 miles south of Seoul.

Warplanes blasted the moving Communist troop column. The Navy in Washington reported Marine pilots now are able to fly off carriers and land at Kimpo. The Navy said belated reports from Inchon-Seoul sector said 17 Russian-made tanks were destroyed by Marine ground weapons and 18 were knocked out by Navy and Marine carrier planes. Allied planes ranged all over the two fronts. Carrier-based Navy and Marine planes hit Red airfields within 150 miles of the Inchon beachhead.

U. S. Fifth Air Force fighter- bombers spewed jellied gasoline fire bombs at Red troops on the southeast Korea perimeter. This could be the prelude to another jump across the Naktong. The two jaws of the mighty Allied nutcracker were beginning to ram shut on the Communists.

On the second front beachhead before Seoul, the 10th corps commander, Maj. (Jen. Edward M. Almond, exulted: "It's going like a million dollars." Almond said the Reds defending Seoul were without heavy artillery but had (jpme mortars. The Marine column driving along the main Inchon-Seoul road fought against "stubborn but disorganized" resistance.

The Marines, left burned out hulks of 17 Red tanks and hundreds of dead Reds in their wake. Eleven of the tanks rumbled into a Marine trap in the Monday morning mists- They blundered into American forces lurking behind cover eight miles east of Inchon. All li were knocked out.
