I Student, Party Activities "
Discussed for Republicans
Several speakers were on the i back to the Declaration of Inde-
program for a meeting of Jack
son County Republican Women
held yesterday at the YMCA
Mrs. Marshall Cornett, Klam
ath Falls, Republican national
committee woman, stressed the
need for Republicans to use the
big potential embodied in the
group of young Republicans or
ganized and operating on the
various college campuses. She
also announced the annual
spring conference of the worn
en's division of .the Republican
nartv in Washington. D.C. in
May, and said that any interest
ed women may attend
Preceding Mrs. Cornett's re
marks, Kathryn McAllister and
Steve Nye, Medford students at
Stanford university active in
young Republican groups, spoke
briefly. Steve Nye pointed out
that although most college stu
dents cannot vote, they derive
much benefit from a party or
ganization and are able to con
tribute worthwhile effort, par
ticularly in giving students
chance to think about and dis
cuss political philosophies, so
that they are better able to
weigh and evaluate the various
philosophies with which they
come in contact on a college
campus.
He said "The majority of col
lege professors are Democrats
and they frequently slant their
classroom presentations in favor
of their personal political be
liefs."
Miss McAllister described the
specific activities on the Stan
ford campus and in San Mateo
county, and commented on the
changed attitude toward mem
bership in the group and its
rapid expansion during the last
couple of years
Featured speakers for the
meeting were Mrs. Oscar Kit
tredge, Klamath Falls, and Mrs.
Frank Bash, chairman of the
Jackson County Central com
mittee, Mrs. Kittredge, discus

pendence in that it embodies the
equality of all men, recognition
of human dignity and empha
sizes individual freedoms. She
pointed out that Republican
leaders of this country have not
been aristocrats many of them
have come from humble homes.
Republican accomplishments
from 1861 to 1933, Mrs. Kit
tredge said, include a forward
looking social and economic pro
gram, a national banking sys
tem, encouragement of develop
ment of natural resources
through the Homestead Act, a
sound currency and economic
policies, which have made the
United States the leader in agri
culture, mining and manufactur
ing in the entire world. Repub
licans were responsible for pass
ing the 13th, 14th and 15th
amendments to the Constitution
and for the abolishment of slav
ery and granting the right of the
Negro to vote, she said.
The speaker discussed at some
length the similarity between
the philosophy of President Eis
enhower and other great Repub
licans, particular Sen. Robert
Taft, pointing out that differ
ences of opinion within any
group are a healthy sign as long
as the overall purpose and aim
are in harmony. "In fact," said
Mrs. Kittredge, "when you don't
have differences of opinion, and
everyone is in agreement, you
are dying."
She finished her talk with a
recipe for housewives: "Take
equal parts of federal rights,
state rights, and right of man
mix them well and you have the
philosophy of the Republican
party."
Mrs. Bash explained the legal
basis for the party organization
such as Republican women and
young Republicans have an im
portant place in the program in
their potential ability to support
the central committee. Women,
said Mrs. Bash, will do most of
the work in the 1956 election,
partly because they have more
time than men, and partly be
cause women by nature are more
dedicated. "We are not just
about to sit by and let a wel
fare state become a reality be
cause of apathy," said Mrs.
Bash. She then presented an
analysis of the last election by
precincts in Jackson county, and
explained the type of precinct
work necessary to improve the
results in the weak precincts.
