TOTS-JO-TEENS 105 EAST MAIN OPEN WED. 'TIL 9 P.Ffl. .Tuesday, November IS, 1955 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THHEB oof orks for Farmers w 1 By LYLE C. WILSON United Press Correspondent " Washington (U.R) The Mid west's No. 1 Ike man, back home after an eastern swing, has been WTTZZTTTWrn telling the folks in Kan sas and Missou ri what's what on two of the hottest politi cal issues of the day. He reported: 1. The Eisen hower adminis tration is get- Lyie C Wilson ting ready to shoot the works for the farmer. 2. High administration offic ials increasingly believe Presi dent Eisenhower will seek re election. The reporter is Roy A. Rob erts, a veteran political writer, but more recently president of the Kansas City Star Co. "Just what the detailed farm program will be hasn't yet been worked out," Roberts wrote in the Star. Plan for Long Pull "Apparently, the only thing definite in the thinking of the Republican leadership is that something will be done, that it is a waste of time to do anything small, and that what is done should dramatize, if possible, the administration's sympathy for the farmer without jepoardizing the soundness, for the long pull, of the program now staked out." Roberts said it is a big order, almost requiring a miracle. But such, he added, is the objective of the Eisenhower administra tion for the 1956 presidential election year. He reported that the big men in the administration who are swinging to the belief the Presi dent will run again may be doing some wishful thinking. Roberts, himself, does' not think the President will go again. But he wrote that the outstanding impression gained during an eastern swing was the attitude of top administration men to- Red China May Free California Priest Hong Kong (U.R) A Catho lic Mission bulletin said today Jesuit Father Thomas Phillips of San Francisco sentenced to three years imprisonment in Shanghai recently, may soon be allowed to leave Red China. "A reliable report just re ceived in Hong Kong states that Phillips 'was brought out of prison for formal trial about two weeks ago," the bulletin said. "He was sentenced to three yars imprisonment. Since he has been held in jail 28 months there is a strong possibility he may soon be deported," the bul letin said. Phillips is one of 17 Ameri cans in jail in Communist China. ward a second term. They were without hope only a few weeks ago. 1 , "The shift in thinking," Rob erts wrote, "apparently flows from the President's steady but amazingly consistent rate of re covery, plus much deeper appre ciation of the realities of the situation. "Nearly everyone you talk to among the White House or cabi net intimates has a different slant. But- they generally wind up with the opinion, or let's say hope, that Ike will see it as his duty to carry on first for the cause of world peace, and sec ond for completion of the do mestic program he has laid down for the country; "Most often you hear the in timates tell how Ike twice has sworn to do his full duty as soldier and president to the country. "Summing up, if it is not to be Ike, the Republicans haven't begun to give serious thought to the man they will select. "They can see an awful mess ahead." An awful mess, that is, if Mr. Eisenhower retires. NAMED ASSISTANT Oakland, Calif. (U.R) A. F. Scarr of Berkeley has been ap pointed assistant to Kaiser Steel Corporation Vice-President and General Manager Jack L. Ash by. Scarr succeeds Jack J. Carl son, who was recently elevated to the post of vice-president. Disaster Car Plan Discussion Slated The Jackson county disaster car association will hold an open meeting today at 8 p.m. at the main fire station, on the corner of North Front and East Third sts. - Purpose of the meeting is to acquaint representatives of service clubs and the general public with the needs and pur pose of the disaster car organi zation. The Fraternal Order of Eagles recently offered to construct a garage for the unit, which would be manned by volunteers and serve the county during dis asters of any nature. Work was begun on the car several months ago by volun teer workers from the fire de partment. Funds for the pur chase of the 32-passenger bus were raised by an auto show sponsored by fire department members last spring. Tonight's meeting is open to the public and anyone interest ed is invited to attend. Use Tribune Want Ads Rickshaw Pullers in South Africa Strike Durban, South Africa XU.R) One of the world's most colorful transport services ground to a halt today when 600 Zulu rick shaw pullers took off their leop ard skins, monkey tails, lions' teeth and 'ostrich plumes and wen on strike. The gaily bedecked rickshaws lay idle for the first time in his tory because the husky, six-foot Africans refused to pay an ex tra three shillings rent for the vehicles.
