Even in the midst of the campaign the Democratic Governor and his Republican associates in the state government seem to be on the best of terms; and while the Republicans have a 51 majority in the state Senate and a 3-1 majority in Iowa’s House of Representatives,; the state government functions with comparatively little friction and to nearly. everyone’s saisfaction. Iowa has only one Democratic congressman and he is said to be having a hard time holding his seat in the coming election. Governor Loveless. won his election in 1956 by a 28,000 margin. That same year President Eisenhower carried the state. by a large Republican majority. This is one more reason why the Democratic Governor is expected to win this midterm contest by an even larger margin.

I had pictured to myself how the competing huskers would ‘rip off the corn from the stalks, tear off the covering and toss the bared ears into a truck. Instead I found that the husker sits on a_machine which moves forward along the rows, bends down the stalks, strips off the ears, peels off the leaves. around the husk, then lifts up the bared ears on a conveyor belt and drops the corn into a truck attached to the Republican cabinet and a Republican Legislature. The truth is that the State machine and rolis. along with it. Here was one man doing as much as fourths of the value of everything pro- duced on Iowa farms is in livestock. Every type and ‘kind of farm crop amounts to only one fourth of the total production value. Such specialized crops as soy beans (that the average Easterner doesn’t think| about) also play an important part in Towa’s farm economy. But let’s get back to politics.

Perhaps the best proof is in the campaign program of William Murray, the Republican candidate for Governor. This ten men were able to do when I was a boy. This explained why 52 per cent of Towa’s production is now industrial. A : EF oREEE R é f° oe ee PRpge gS pttte Fe i ot Tin Roof sun-baked face looks as tough as rippled leather.

This is also true of Iowa politics. Here is a rock-ribbed Republican state of the Middie West which has a Democratic Governor, and when I talked with Governor Herchel C.
