GRANT HOTEL Mattoon Democrats On By OVID A. MARTIN WASHINGTON JP Despite a controversy over the flexible price support program, Republicans marked up significant election victories Tuesday in politically Important farm belt states Some successful GOP candidates differed with the administration but the overall results did not represent, in the view of observers here, a repudiation of the new farm policies pushed through Congress by President Eisenhower. Nearly complete returns indicated that congressional and statehjuse gains made by Democrats were confined largely to urban aieas of the country. The Midwest results were viewed, too, as a farmer vote of confidence in Secretary of Agriculture Benson, who spearheaded the administration drive for variable farm prle? guarantees to replace war-born high, rigid floors. Counted out by bis criJcs several times since he started plugging a program aimed at "taking the government out of agriculture," Benson's position appeared to be stronger than ever, Benson's home state, Utah, sent two OOP Houss members back to Washington despite the late withdrawal of one candidate, Rep.

Douglas Stringfel-low. Utah had no Senate 'contest. Democrats had expected declining farm prices to help swing Midwest farmers their way just as farmer dissatisfaction with the OOP controlled 80th Congress helped former President Harry S.

one of the most pqlitically potent names in American history, went down to defeat Tuesday in his first bid for state office, trailing badly behind the rest of a predominantly victorious Democratic ticket. Running for the office of attorney general, the 40-year-old Roosevelt lost by a plurality of about 170.000 out of S-milllon votes, to his Republican opponent, Rep. Jacob K. Javlts. It was the second reversal within a few months to the political ambitions of the man that the public has come to tag "Young FDR." He aspired to be the party gubernatorial candidate, but after he displayed strength in the ea'ly skirmishing for convention delegates and ran a strenuous walkie-talkie floor demonstration, the Democratic chieftains chose Avercll Harriman.
