h'$ Brew1 Being Stirred To Get Farm Vote, Benson Claims
Chicago 43. Agriculture
Secretary Ezra T. Benson ac
cused Democratic "presidential
hopefuls" today of stirring up a
"witch's brew" in an attempt to
harvest votes from the farm
problem.
Benson delivered a biting at
tack on Democratic .critics of his
farm program, singing out Adlai
E. Stevenson and New York Gov.
verell Harriman for special
nsure.
In a breakfast meeting speech
Wjllsa Walla Warden
Suspends Four Guards
Walla Walla (U.R) Lawrence
Dgpore Jr., warden of the state
penitentiary, last night suspend
ed four guards on charges of ne
glect f duty following the es
cape of two Inmates early in the
day.
The four guards were on duty
in (gpven wing Tuesday night
where John Russell, 25, and Ed
ward Lincoln Burkholder, 23,
broke 5tit. Delmore said the
guards had five days in which to
answer the charge.
before the Republican National
committee, Benson charged that
the Democrats are making Dem
onstrably false statements" and
offering "quack remedies and
discarded nostrums" in a cam
paign to make political capital
out of falling farm prices.

promises to the farmers, Benson
said.
"When Adlai Stevenson re
cently flip-flopped back to rigid,
90 per cent price supports and
then threw in his version of the
Brannan plan for good measure,
I watched with some interest to
see if Averell Harriman could
top that," Benson told the Re
publicans. ' "He did. He even chided
Adlai for being too 'moderate'."'
Benson's counter-attack on the
Democrats was the most fight
ing speech so far at the two-day
GOP pow pow here.
However, Commerce Secre
tary Sinclair Weeks and Labor
Secretary James Mitchell were
still to deliver their defenses of
Eisenhower administration pol
icies. And GOP National Chair
man Leonard W. Hall was sched
uled to relay a personal mes
sage from the President.
Others To Speak
Also on the schedule of today's
windup session were reports
from three committees on plans
for the party's 1956 convention

there were no proposals to aban

snappy convention.
Hopes that President Eisen
hower will run for the presi
dency again dominated the meet
ing and were boosted late yes
terday by statements from Hall
and Vice-President Richard M.
Nixon.
Hall said it wouldn't matter
if Mr. Eisenhower delays an an
nouncement of his political plans
until next March, the latest daft
yet mentioned for such an an
nouncement. Nixon, meanwhile, started the
GOP. leaders buzzing with a mes
sage that the people in 1956 will
choose the same "leadership"
that has been provided by Presi
dent Eisenhower. Republicans
attached significance to the fact
that Nixon used the word "lead
ership" instead of "policies."
Further Praise
Henry Cabot Lodge, U.S. am
bassador to the United Nations,
continued the praise of the Ei
senhower administration in a
speech last night.
Lodge said Eisenhower pol
icies have raised America's
standing in the world to its
Farm Bureau Favors
Land Ownership For
School Bond Voting
A study to determine' if the
present method of voting school
bonds can be declared unconsti
tutional is under consideration
by Farm Bureaus of Jackson,
Josephine, Douglas and Coos
counties, according to Dave
Blair, Rogue River, president of
the Jackson County Farm bur
eau. If the proposed study is fav
orable to members of the four
counties, funds will be solicited
and a Portland law firm retain
ed to do research, Blair told th
county Farm Bureau board of
directors recently.
Blair said the bureau should
know whether or not the study
would be conducted after the
next meetings of county burH
eaus.
May Test the Law
If legal research indicates
there can be a reversal of the
present law, the Oregon Farm
Bureau will be asked by the
county bureaus to test the con
stitutionality of the law. The
law allows any registered voter
to cast a ballot in bond issues.
Blair pointed out that the Ore
gon Farm Bureau federation's
policy is that "property owner
ship should be one-of the qual
ifications for persons voting on
bond issues." .
During the"1955 Oregon legis
lature, the Farm Bureau urged
passage of a bill which provided
for a constitutional amendment
to prohibit non-property owners
from voting on school bonds,
Blair said. The bill was defeated
in committee, but another bill
which would require 15 per cent
of the registered voters to cast
a ballot in school bond elections
before the issue became effective
was defeated in the senate, Blair
pointed out.
Favors Sales Tax
The OFBF, Blair said, still
favors a retail sales tax. The
position, heQsaid, was reaffirmed
at the recent convention in Sa
lem. A resolution there favored
a sales tax with revenue "ear
marked for educational purposes
and property tax off -set." The
bureau also resolved that if such
a tax were enacted "that agri
culture be defined 0in the sta
tutes as manufacturer and or
producer, in order to eliminate
duplicate or pyramiding taxa
tion." The orginial recommendation
for the sales tax policy origin
ated in Jackson county, Blair
said.
The federal plan initiative to
amend the state constitution to
give each county in Oregon a
seat in the state senate also is
favored y the bureau, Blair
said.
Blair noted that "under the
present population plan of apr
portionment, rural Oregon is
losing out to the metropolitan
areas. We feel that area re
sources and wealth as well as
population should be considered
in the apportionment of legis
lative representation."
highest point In history. He
urged Republicans to keep for
eign policy bi-partisan, to take
"honest pride" in it, and not to
let it become a political issue.
