GOP.. • (Continual Iron: /vur I) ^Republicans. The two groups isplit over differences five years i 1 ago | A resolution calling for repeal of the Subversive Activities Con trol act of 1950 was defeated by : two votes on the floor of the as j sembly. Guest speakers at the conven tion were Dr Orlo Brees. execu five director of the Oregon Re- j publican State Central Commit tee; Elmo Smith, former Oregon governor and publisher of the Albany Democrat-Herald, and Ton; Lawson McCall, candidate for the office of secretary of state. The Fight of Freedom" was the topic of Dr Brees, the key note speaker Starting with pre history. he briefly described the growth of the 'need for govern ment among individuals.” He defined freedom as the ‘'un turned opportunity of an indivi dual to express the best in him self.” and as "the achievement of the w idest possible range of choice within a field and the rec ognition of that choice by others. Dr. Brees saw the difference, between the two major political parties in the United States as basically one of attitude "since both parties deal with the same problems.” Individual Rights The Republican party, accord ing to Dr Brees, recognized the necessity of solving problems with the least amount of inter ference with the rights of the in dividual. "And leaves the great est degree of freedom consistent w ith the common good ” • Whereas the other party.” Dr. Brees stated, delights in those problems and operates on a cost plus basis.” Ex-Gov Smith spoke on the re unification of the Oregon Re publican College League and the Oregon Young Republicans He said that the college league 1 will be directly responsible to the State Central Committee un til a permanent solution can be reached He said that he planned to call a meeting of the leaders of the two organizations in the near future to discuss their differences. "Our Responsibility" ' He also commented on the dangers inherent in the continu al devaluation of the U S dollar, concluding "our responsibility is j to keep enough responsible in government so that the dollar is not downgraded.” Tom McCall, in the opening address to the convention, gave a commentary on the current po litical climate in the nation with emphasis on the situation here in Oregon. . in describing new campaign methods since the advent ot tel_ evision, he cited the example of GOP candidates Rockefeller and Goldwater who have spent mil lions campaigning but are seem ingly losing ground to a man who is thousands of miles away. "This may well be the year of the green tomato,” quipped McCall. The question is how is a man to campaign today in this world of modern media. "It is now possible for a man to become famous overnight” He said that Lodges lead seems to be an acknowledgment of an apparent political reality. "The political season by 1964 standards is too long and too dull so that the distant absentee, instead of the omnipresent stumper enjoys high esteem.” "If this is true, then a great stocktaking is in order,” he con cluded.
