" Teachers for two Pringle classes and" one at Morningside . are en thusiastic over the results of their Beginning readers in the few weeks since school started. . Instead of each child observing new reading material for the first , time in the pages ef his individual book, a screen-sized coldr projec tion of the page that all the cljss may observe tt once, is employed in the new technique. . It is the first time the method has been used j in Salem schools though it has been tested with suc cess in some mid-west schools. ? .

' Hall, an Eisenhower supporter, has attracted considerable atten tion recently by speeches saying that the ' Republican Party u. in trouble" because it has not kept i campaign pledges to farmers and labor. He said the Kansas delegation to next year's GOP convention in San Francisco wil line up solidly for . renomination. of President Eisenhower if he consents to a second term. " Larj:r Mr?iii "If he runs again he will be reelected by a larger margin than in 1952," Hall said. He added that republicans suffered setbacks in recent elections because "they have been out of step with the Eisenhower program." Some conservatives in his party fear that the "trend of the times is toward socialism and perhaps even toward communism," Hall said. . . . . Eisenhower and the republi cans won in 1952,' the governor continued, because most citizens "voted for a progresive Republi can Party." - "We can't possibly win as an anti-labor, anti-farmer or anti business party," he said. "We must avoid the role-of extremist, either conservative or radical." Hall said congress has failed to carry out Eisenhower proposals for amendments of the Taft-Hartley labor act and the maintenance of farm income at fair levels, i "Farmers have been the tradi- ; tio'nal strength of . the Republican Party, particular. in the mid west, he said, adding that some of these farmers are bitter now because of the drop in. farm in come.
