WASHINGTON William Edgar Borah has one of the toughest hides, politically, in the senate But it was a basketful of cabbages hurled in his direction which finally goaded him into entering the Ohio primary. A few weeks ago Borah passed out the word that he would stay out of Ohio. To enter meant a categorical announcement that his hat was in the ring. For Ohio is the only state in the Union where a candidate must sign his own filing papers. Borahs negative decision brought forth considerable kidding. 1 he Senator from Idaho was accused of "being too old, of "having cold feet, of not being a serious contender, of never going through with what he starts. This is old stuff to Boiah. But this time it got under his usually indifferent skin. He sent word to Ohio backers that he had changed his mind. a encountered Later, Borah newspaperman who remarked.

Wallace, defending constitutionality of the administrations new farm bill, warned today of dangers of a "judicial dictatori ship. He asserted it is "the duty of citizens and officers of government to point out the error of the court when the court makes decisions which the citizens and officers think erroneous in the light of changing conditions. Unless we can do this, preferably in the calm, matured way In which Lincoln did it, then we have a judicial dictatorship," Wallace said Whatever else the founding fathers may have intended, they did not intend a dictatorship by any one of the three branches of government, least of all by the branch most removed from contact with or restraint by the people.
