(By The Associated Press)
Missouri’s fifth district voters
marked ballots today in a con-
gressional race that promised an
insight, by proxy, into the admin-
istration’s popularity in one seg-
men* of President Truman’s homo
state.
The race, involving an attempt
by Rep. Roger C. Slaughter <D>
to win renomination despite pub-
lic opposition from the president,
drew only a small segment of the
voters participating in the day's
six primaries — in Missouri, Kan-
sas, Arkansas, New Hampshire,
Virginia and West Virginia.
But because Mr. Truman said
that if Slaughter was right in his
fight against White House legisla-
tive proposals, the president was
wrong, the contest took on an ele-
ment missing since the late Presi-
dent Roosevelt aided in the 1938
defeat of Ret). John J. O'Connor,
New York democrat. Mr. Roose-
velt’s efforts, however, failed to
unseat four other democrats that
yea r.
Enos A Axtell, Mr. Truman's
choice, and Jerome Walsh, former
OPA attorney, fought it out with
Slaughter for the democratic nom-
ination while the president pre-
pared to vote in the adjoining
fourth district at his home town
of Independence.
In a statewide Missouri race,
Senator Frank P. Briggs <D> is
seeking renomination in a battle
with three opponents.
Five are seeking the republican
nomination, including Janies P.
Kern. Kansas City attorney and
former State Senator Ray Mabee.
