Joe Martin fell in Massachusetts, Howard W. Smith lost his saddle in Vir ginia. In the 4th District of N. C., Cooley made the mistake of running against James C. Gardner, former state Repub lican chairman. In the view of experienced North Carolina observers, the outcome never was in doubt. Cooley had come to the House in July, 1934, he had served 16 terms, gained the chairman ship of House Agriculture, es tablished himself as a power ful figure on the Hill. He was known as “Scab,” after the character in Allen Drury’s “Advise and Consent” and sometimes as Sugar King, in tribute to his mastery of the recurring sugar bill. But while he ruled his fractious committee in Washington, a generation grew up in Raleigh that knew him not. Cooley was a cantankerous 69, Gardner a vigorous 33. Even the gerry- manding of the district, in an effort to rope in additional Democrats, was not enough to save the aging warrior. Down he went. The turning point of the campaign came on the evening of October 3, when Cooley and Gardner appeared in joint de bate before a large audience at N. C. State University in Ral eigh. The evening proved to be Cooley’s Dunkirk. Gardner had come prepared with material calculated to please a young and intellectual audience. Cool ey had brought little more than his own considerable ego. Where Gardner was light, Cool ey was heavy; where Gardner was crisp and incisive, Cooley was slow and clumsy. By the time the exchange ended the students were cheering Gard ner and jeering Cooley. In brief —a debacle. WRAL-TV routinely filmed the program. Now, the moving spirit of the Raleigh station is its staunchly conservative ex ecutive vice president, Jesse Helms. His ringing right-wing editorials, plainly identified as such, offer about the only com petition for miles around to the liberalism of the Raleigh News & Observer. There never is any question on where Helms stands: He stands slightly to the right of John C. Calhoun. Cooley’s charge that WRAL- TV caused him “irreparable damage” by leasing its film of the October 3 debate to Gard ner for a paid political broad cast. The station’s response is that Cooley could have leased the same folm, at the same ren tal, if he wanted to. Cooley charges that WRAL-TV en gineers helped Gardner edit the raw tape for effective broadcast. The station denies this absolutely. The former congressman’s most serious charge is that in its newscasts, the station sought deliberately to aid his opponent. He has filed four letters with the FFC to sup port that charge, one of them from a lady who seems to be generally mad at WRAL - TV because it shows Westerns in the afternoon. By way of ans wer, the station has filed a score of letters from leading Democrats who supported Mr. Cooley in the campaign. Thad Eure, secretary of state worked for Cooley’s election, but “at no time did I see or hear anything over your station during the entire campaign that, in my opinion, would jus tify the protest.” Edwin Gill, State treasurer, found WRAL “fair and just to each of the candidates.” State Sen. Robert Morgan described the coverage as “fair and equal.” Labor Commissioner Frank Crane, who did “everything possible for Cooley,” was shocked by Cooley’s petition to the FCC; he had regarded the station’s campaign reporting as “ abso lutely fair and unbiased.” So the record stands. On January 25, still using his sta tionery as chairman of House Agriculture, ex-Congressman Cooley wrote the FCC, insist ing upon a full hearing on the station’s license renewal. The license expired in Decem ber. The station’s very exist ence lies wholly in the hands of the FCC. To judge from the station’s precisely detailed exhibits, WRAL took painstaking care to give both candidates equal coverage on its news programs. It offered them the same free time, and the same opportunity to buy paid time. Tho Helms was critical of Cooley, the station did not editorially sup port Gardner. What happened was that “Seab”„ from the mo ment of the October debate, presented the image of a loser. And as it turned out, a poor and graceless looser at that.
