Oklahoma Report
Five Facts Work For Edmo ndson I n Senate Race
By
RALPH
SMITH
Express Capitol Bureau
OKLAHOMA CITY— Some hard
facts of political life have begun
to emerge in the state since Bob
Kerr Jr announced his with-
drawal from the 19M U S Sen-
ate race
And those even mildly interest-
ed in making the race can hardly
avoid seeing that these facts put
U S Sen J Howard Edmondson
squarely i nthe driver’s seat I ship w ill not be anxious to go
Fact one is that among leading through again
contenders only Howard Edmond- J Shakes Labels
son has the close friendship of Fact number three is that Ed-
the president and other national mondson has successfully shaken
I political powers
J This friendship will be a big
v- ! help for Edmondson who has al-
v j ready saved the Ling-Temco-:
Vought lant’s withdrawal
the ‘'liberal" and “rubber stamp”
labels stuck on him when he
first went to Washington He
has voted against Kennedy’s mass
from I transit bill called for cuts in the
Oklahoma
Projects Count
Most observers feel that Okla-
homa can get along all right with-
out JFK but the real point is
foreign aid program and has
taken a conservative approach
to the administration's tax bill
Fact number four is the new
senator has impressed even his
will the Central Oklahoma Canal i critics with the hard work he
project the state’s fledging space has put into the job since going
industry and the multitude of
water projects in the state sur-
vive Fact number two is there is no
assurance a new senator would
get the choice committee assign-
ments given to Edmondson
He currently serves on the
Senate committees on space and
agriculture Both are important
to Oklahoma’s economy
Edmondson’s appointment to '
to Washington
Fact number five is that Ed-
mondson is still the best known
Democrat in Oklahoma and there
isn’t any secret about his ability
and reputation as a tough cam-
paigner Edmondson’s record as
a governor may have more good
points than his enemies are will-
ing to admit in this pre-election
period
Fact number six is that regard
the Space Committee drew the less of who wins next year it is
wTath of his party’s liberals in another hard brutal and tough
the Senate and this is an ex- fight in 1966 By then Bob Kerr
perience the Democratic leader-1 Jr may have his affairs in good
shape and Gov Henry Beilmon
will certainly be foot loose and
fancy free
It isn't much of a secret that
Beilmon has not stopped cam-
paigning ever since he took office
Still Rumblings
There are still a lot of rumb-
lings from potential candidates
for Sen Edmondson’s job Some
may announce and some will look
at the facts and decide that in
such a race it would for them
be chicken today and feathers
tomorrow7
Edmondson’s only opponent so
far on the Democratic ticket is
Fred Harris of Lawton a state
senator Harris who ran fifth
for the Democratic gubernatorial
nomination last time is putting
together an organization— many
are old pros from political battles
of long ago A contest between
Edmondson and Harris could be
spirited
The Republicans on the other
hand at least from the moderates
and talking up State Representa-
tive G T Blankenship of Okla-
homa City
The more conservative element
is making contacts and sounding
out sentiment for Forest Beall
former Republican state chair-
man who was dumped from the
party post by Gov Beilmon
just recently
Still seeking support is B Hay-
den Crawford a twice defeated
GOP candidate for the Senate
Whoever wins the primaries
has another big battle in the gene-
ral because Beilmon has stated
he was going to be pitching for
his man and this could be a big
help

provide more and better electric service for its customers — farm home business and in-
dustrial users in Oklahoma
The company’s present-day vast interconnected facilities didn’t just happen They are the
product of the determination skill and integrity of purpose of thousands of men and women
who have worked together over the years to make good adequate dependable electric
service available to you men and women who toiled devotedly to attract investor
confidence and capital for expansion to improve service through engineering research and
development to develop farm uses of electricity' to reduce the cost of generating transmit-
ting and distributing electricity so that everyone this company serves can have ample

— Continuity of Service
Great stride have been made smet 1913 in providing you with uninterrupted service This has been largely
accomplished by the growth of the company- generating transmission and distribution facilities Today gart
generating stations srategically located throughout the company service area have replaced the many small
limited service-area stations of the past Present-day high-voltage transmission line interconnect the com-
pany’ modem generating station with each other — permitting the transmission of large blocks of electricity
from the sources of supply to distribution centers strategically located throughout the company territory
— Interconnection with Other Companies
Public Service Company's electric transmission system — the super highway for moving elect ic power— is
tied to the systems of neighboring utilities in 20 place now and more interconnections are on th way As
one result even if an unforeseen emergency should arise ample electric rower is immediately available for
Public Service Company customers Through the exchange of excess power each of the ss7em also save
added investment benefiting customers still more Snilar ties connect other elritiic utlity companies across
the nation forming a giant power grid Present plans call for all major power systems to be linked by T3T0
