SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday, January 17. 1958 Farmers Noi To Be Fooled, Nixon Says Washington (U.R) Vice- President Richard M. Nixon says that "Farmers are not go ing to be fooled" by former President Truman's call for a re turn to rigid 90 per cent of par ity farm price supports. In an unusual Sunday state ment, Nixon said Mr. Truman and others "following his line" on farm policies "should start thinking about the farmer first and politics second. Nixon blamed the farmer's economic plight largely on Tru man administration policies. Mr. Truman said in St. Paul, Minn., that "the mess in agricul ture is clearly attributable to the Eisenhower administration." He added that the administra tion "is out of sympathy with the needs of agriculture" and should return to a 90 per cent of parity program. Nixon said "Mr. Truman's memory seems to be playing tricks with him. What he appar ently fails to realize is that he in fact is criticizing his own . . program which was in effect during virtually the entire pe riod when farm prices were go ing down."
