WILSON Washington U.R The Army Signal Corps has overhauled President Truman's whistle-stop campaign Pullman, ' It needs only 18 or so cars to hooked in front of it to become Mr, Tru man's 1952 campaign train. The President's promise and eagerness to campaign for the Democratic ticket and a Demo cratic Congress again this year are too obvious to permit doubt that he intends to do so. Depends on Republicans The kind of campaign, how ever, depends most of all on whom the Republicans nominate Medford Lions Club Elects Officers; Circus Plans Told Archie C.

Pullman for Tour for President and vice president, Mr. Truman repeatedly has said that Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio is his favorite for the Republi can nomination. Of Gen. Dwight D. Eisen- hower the President always has spoken kindly, often with af fection and rarely without some tribute to the general's virtues, After all, Eisenhower was Mr. Truman's candidate for Presl- dent in 1945 when he offered to support the general If he de- sired to run In 1948. Pilch Won't Be Same So Mr. Truman's pitch in this campaign year will not be the same for Eisenhower that it would be for Taft. Taft's nom ination would spotlight foreign policy, Eisenhower's would shadow it. The President would earn paign against Taft as an lndi vidual and in all other respects. He would pour it en Taft at the whistle stops because the Presi dent is among those who set In Taft the man who more than any other has determined Re publican party policies. Mr. Truman's friendly refer ences to Eisenhower and his un friendly references to Taft have suggested to some persons that the President may now figure that such taetics would hinder the general and help the senator to obtain the Republican nom ination.

Heeert, Afent Congressional Quiz Qutetlone and Aniweri on What Goei on at the Capital. Furntthed by Consrenlenal Quarterly Now features. Q Did politics play much part In the lateRt revision of Con. resslenal districts to adjust for state population shifts. A Yes. A Congressional Quarterly survey shows the par ty in control of the state legis lature usually called the tune, drawing new district lines to its own advantage. Generally the legislatures increased the number of districts solidly Re publican or Democratic and cut down the number of "switching" districts. The reapportionment, which takes place every lOyears, this year gave more Congresslon- seats to seven states and re duced the representation of nine. O Did the shuffling of Con gressional districts this year give them all about the same popula tion? A No. Politics, geographi cal features, local Interests, con stitutional restrictions and vot er desires resulted in consider able variation. Few districts are within 5,000 of the 344,848 average population per district. The largest district, Har ris county, Including Houston, Tex., has 802,102 people. The smallest, South Dakota's Second, has 148,147. New York's 43 die tricts are most uniform all but one are in the 300,000-400,000 bracket.

Benefits would include mustering out pay, home and business loan guarantees, and monthly pay ments for college, job or farm training. Though modeled on the World War II GI Bill, the legislation would include changes aimed at correcting abuses. Q Does the bill Increasing QI pay give anything extra for Ko rea combat? . A No. A Senate-passed pro vision for an extra $45 monthly combat pay for Korean service was dropped during Senate- House conference. As signed May 19 by the President, the leg islation increases subsistence al lowances 14 per cent and boosts basic pay four per cent, at cost of $484 million yearly.

Dan iel A. Reed (R-N.Y.) predicted Sa'urday that President Truman will get the 1952 Democratic presidential nomination "by vir tue of the most sinister and un- American political strategem in all our national history.' Mr. Truman announced March 29 that ha will not be a candi date for re-nomination or re election. Reed said that "by his specious withdrawal from the race, Presi dent Truman sought only to quiet the mounting fire of criti cism and national Indignation aimed at him because of the sickening Washington scandals. In a speech printed in the Con gressional Record, Reed said "despite his dramatic public re nunciation of third-term ambi tions, President Truman has maneuvered skillfully to keep himself actively in the race for re-election. "His henchmen and court Jest Right Youth Training Stressed by Speaker "To make a good citizen to morrow the child must have the right training today," Sgt. Wil liam Colbert of the Oregon state police told members of the Med ford Active club at their weekly meeting at the Rogue Valley Country club. Colbert stated that training a child for life rests In the hands of the home, the church and the school. In most of the cases where he had to handle juvenile cases, he found that the child had never had religious training or his home life was unsatisfac tory. He urged the members to give their children religious training, not only would it make the child realize that he must be responsible to laws of men but above that he must obey the laws of God. "Your family relationship will be greater if you have religious thinking there, Colbert concluded. r035E3Ehh I c-a t rx n tv n n II f 1 II II II fill vv v II J TO 'MED BY MILLIONS !
