t SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday, November 8, 19S5 lost emocra Favorite BEI JC 6 Q"'' 0 0 Eve Candidate of 1952 Expected To Tell Plans Next Week Washington (U.R) Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.) said today he expects most of the "favorite son" candidates for t h Democratic presidential nomination to throw their sup port eventually to Adlai E. o Stevenson. Stevenson, the 1952 nominee who lost to President Eisen hower, is expected to announce his candidacy for the 1956 nom ination from Chicago next -week. "I think a majority of the fa vorite sons will be for Stevenson i when all is said and done," said Humphrey, who already has de- j clared for the former Illinois governor. "In my opinion, Ste- venson is away out in front and I would expect him to increase his commanding lead." Stevenson Invited "Favorite son" candidates are put forward by their own state delegations both to honor the candidates and to avoid com mitting delegations at national nominating conventions until the outlook crystallizes. A favorite son could emerge as victor from a deadlocked convention. Among Democrats who are being discussed as possible fa vorite son candidates are Gov. Robert B. Meyner of New Jer sey, Gov. Frank J. Lausche of Ohio, Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas and Gov. G. Mennen Williams of Michigan. Humphrey and other Minne sota Democratic leaders already have invited Stevenson to enter the Minnesota presidential pri mary next March 20. Stevenson is expected to agree. "I wouldn't expect there would be any opposition," Hum phrey said. Other political developments: Hall Criticizes Congress 1. Republican National chair man Leonard W. Hall charged that the Democratic-controlled 84th Congress "has been a mis erable failure so far" and has "roadblocked" President Eisen hower's domestic program. He made the statement in the cur rent issue of "Straight From The Shoulder," official publica tion of the GOP National Com mittee. 2. Sen. Humphrey countered with a statement that the Demo crats did block a "bonds for boulevards" highway program and a school building program that would have provided for consultation "with bond brokers ntually about school finances" instead of school construction. "My only regret," he said "is that we were unable to block the Eisenhower special privilege big business tax grab. . ." 3. Democratic National Chair man Paul M. Butler said Repub licans have served notice that "the GOP considers its conduct Support Steetison of public affairs none of the pub-, lie's business." He made the comment in reply to a GOP Na tional Committee statement of last week. The GOP said Demo cratic - controlled congressional investigating committees are conducting a "smear campaign of immense proportions" in an effort to get campaign material. CHIMNEYS I CLEANED PHONE 2-8277 I McGINTY FUEL CO. g Use Tribune Want Ads Barmaid Held -for Questioning in Death of Boys New Orleans (U.R) A pretty barmaid was held today in the "rat poison" deaths of two small brothers who authorities first believed died from contaminated food rummaged from garbage cans but she denied the accusa tion. The 27-year-old brunette, iden tified as Mrs. Mary Falcon, had a fight with the boys' mother and threatened to "get even one way or the other" a month be fore the boys died, police said. Rule Violation Costs Job Mrs. Falcon, also known by the aliases of Mrs. William Hart and Mary Jackson, had been receiving $12 a week free lodg ings for collecting rent at the rooming house where the two brothers lived. But she lost her job, police said, when the land lady discovered there were more than two children in . the vic tims' family, a violation of the owners' rules. The boys, William Jr., 7, and Lawrence Baughman, 6, lived with their parents and five other children. Their father was an unemployed dock worker who had been ill for some time. Lived on Handouts The Baughmans, according to neighbors, had lived solely on the handouts from nuns, which consisted of $7 worth of grocery donations per week for about three weeks before the boys died. The neighbors told police the children were always beg ging for food and scavenging scraps from garbage cans. At the time the boys died at Charity hospital Oct. 13, au thorities first attributed their deaths to malnutrition but the coroner later ruled their deaths were caused by a rat poison. In the suspect's apartment police found poison tablets, used for killing rats and insects, and in her purse she carried news paper clippings about the boys' deaths. Deer Wouldn't Die; Hunters Fined $50 Onaway, Mich. (U.R) Three youths were fined S50 each Mon day for shooting game out of j season because a deer refused to stay dead. A conservation officer arrest ed the trio when the deer, which was only wounded, poked his head from the trunk of their car.
