V BIKER LAUDS State Leading Way- Choos ing Able Men For Con gress, Candidate States Republican Vice Presidential Candidate John W. Bricker, speaking here Friday evening from the rear platform of his special train, declared himself delighted with the reception ac corded his party in Oregon. Ap proximately 1,500 people gath ered at the depot to see and hear the Ohio governor and the many favorable comments heard as the train departed Indicated both the candidate and Mrs. Bricker, whom he introduced at the out set, had made a very favorable impression. Bricker complimented Oregon on its high type of representa tion in congress, asserting that "there will be many important adjustments to be made follow ing the war and these can only come through sincere, honest ap plication by those in positions of leadership. This state is point ing the way in this respect. You have developed leaders in con gress. Your senator (Cordon) has had experience and you have nominated a second able man (Wayne Morse) along with him. Your congressman from this dis trict (Harris Ellsworth) has not only had experience in congress but has made it his business to study the people of other coun tries, our allies, and has per sonally contacted them to better qualify himself to serve you. And when Tom Dewey becomes president of the nited States he will need the services of Sen ators Cordon and Morse and Congressman Ellsworth to help him in organizing the majority of the congress next year." Renaissance Cited Referring to the republican Renaissance, Bricker said "When I became governor of Ohio there were eight Republican gover nors. Five of them attended the first conference of governors to which I went and we hardly dared open our mouths. But in six years we have gained until we have 26 Republican gover nors and in those 26 states two-thirds of the people of the United States live and three quarters of the industry exists. It only takes 20 of those states if you will let us pick the right ones to elect a Republican president. I think we already have them picked, but I also think we are going to get all 26 of them. "New leadership Is necessary to keep a nation strong and virile. The problems which are ever-changing demand new lead ership. The 26 governors have re-established the Republican party in the minds of the peo ple. Your Governor Snell has done a good job in this respect and he holds the confidence and respect of governors of both parties. In fact, if the Demo cratic governors were free to speak their real convictions about half of them would be in the Republican party this year. "Congressman Ellsworth and Senator Cordon can tell you that ' in important issues dealing with fundamental principles of our government. Democratic sen ators and congressmen are com ing over to the Republicans to save the representative system of government. Not only are they coming over, but bringing with them millions of loyal, pa triotic Democrats to vote the Re publican ticket this year. Democrats Switch "Everywhere and at every meeting, Democrats come to us and say, 'We are joining the Re publicans. We have been life long Democrats. We believe in the liberal system of govern ment we have been fighting for for generations, but we cannot stand the New Deal. We' are coming to your side. You are fighting the battle of liberal gov ernment.' "When the Ickes, the Hop kinses, the Frankfurters, the Rosenmans and the Wallaces took over the old Democratic party they threw away the plat form of economy within two or three months. The only economy they put into effect was the economy by which veterans of our wars suffered. They took $450,000,000 away from them. "There is a great need today for a change in Washington. A house cleaning is imminent. There is nothing today that would so inspire American business, that would so encour age American labor, that would so thrill the men that are fight ing for America, as a Republi can victory this fall." Party Leaders Aboard A number of prominent state and southern Oregon party lead ers had boarded the special at points further north to confer with the Bricker party during the balance of the run through the state. They included Sen ator Cordon and Representative and Mrs. Ellsworth, Mr. and Mrs. Niel Allen and Marshall Cornett and from Jackson county, Mrs. Bertha Coy Ross, Mrs. C. Q. d'Albini, Ralph E. Koozer and Frank VanDyke. Senator Cordon continued on to Ashland with the special and returned here for an informal reception later. Representative and Mrs. Ellsworth returned to Roseburg on the northbound train at 7 o'clock. H ow to Pick Ducks Easy As Chickens Most hunters will admit that picking a wild duck is hard work. Two Great Falls, Mont., newspaper men found an "easy way to do the job in only eight minutes per bird," according to a clipping furnished by Claude Holmes, General Petroleum dis tributor in Medford. The men merely boiled water and added a "commercial auto mobile wash," such as Sovasuds Car Wash, in the proportion of six ounces of wash to two gal lons of water. They dipped the duck in the mixture and the preparation penetrated the oily covering of feathers. "There upon," quoting the Great Falls men, "the ducks pick Just like chickens." , E Sunday, Oct. 15, 1944 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE THREE, Camp White With the recent addition of a training school for military police at Camp White, Special Service officials are look ing forward to a full house when Frankie Masters and his band I play for the post's big dance at the Camp White Sports Arena Monday night.
