land West gave the invocation.
The candidate, after pledging
his support to the Eisenhower
philosophy of humanitarian lib
eralism and financial responsi
bility, stated that one of the
main issues of political cam
paigns this year is world peace,
and that leadership of the right
sort is essential if the world is to
remain peaceful.
Mr. Hitchcock stated that
prosperity without inflation
would assure a stable economy
in this country which in turn
would be reflected in help for
the rest of the world.
Mr. Hitchcock touched on the
Eisenhower program for high
ways, federal aid to schools and
on foreign policy and then re
viewed his own record during
the time he served as a member
of the" Oregon senate. This in
cluded support of civil rights,
penal reforms and workmen's

ed that he thought he had al
ways "been fair to labor" and
that he had a high regard for

Rites To Be

said in a news conference late George R. V. Bolster introduced Mr. Hitchcock. The Rev. D. Kirk-
Monday. She will wear a snort
beige dress made in Rome by
designer Micole Fontana and
have only organ music.
The 32-year-old daughter of
former President Truman, who
is frankly sentimental about
true love and old acquaintances,
is not superstitious about wed
ding customs. She said she
won't even wear "the usual
something old, something new,
etc.," unless somebody in the
family insists.
Miss Truman disclosed her fu
ture wedding plans in person a
day ' before she discussed her
past boy friends in print in the
second installment of her mem
oirs, "Souvenir," appearing in
Good Housekeeping magazine.
Only the two families will be
invited to the 4 p.m. ceremony
in the Trinity Episcopal church
in Independence, Mo., where her
mother and father also were
married, Miss Truman said. Only
old and close friends will attend
the reception at the Truman
home afterwards, she said, and
added, "Mother is running most
of this anyway, so I don't know
all of the details."
Her two attendants will be
Mrs. John E. Horton, the former
Drucie Snyder, and Mrs. W.
Coleman Blanton, the former
Mary Shaw, both of whom are
mentioned frequently in her
memoirs, including references
to their first love.
. Miss Truman names more
than a dozen of her own escorts
in the White House, but she
omits the name of the suitor who
first proposed marriage in 1948.
"Much as I liked him, he
wasn't the one," she wrote, add
ing that she always wanted a
man who would sweep her off
ber feet . . . Who will tell me
what to do in no uncertain terms
and see that I do it."
, If the regular Episcopal wed
d i n g ceremony includes the
word "obey" she told reporters
Monday, that is fine with her.
She thinks it is "splitting hairs"
to omit it.

day theme was used for decora
tions at the March 13 meeting

Eight Home Colors
Promote Harmony,
Decorator Declares
West Hartford, Conn.UJ.R)
A gal's chance of living happily
with her husband is greater if
she also is in harmony with her
house.
Hawley. who has been a dec
orator for 51 years, says if a
red-haired wife nags hubby it
may not be the fault of either.
It could be because her home
has red walls or furnishings
Hawley has found that women
with red hair have an easier-
going temperament if their
homes are decorated in blends
of blue, gray and rose. Red is
fine, on the head of a woman
or on the walls of a house but
put 'em both together and they
clash.
But a red motif is dandy for
brunettes. "Brunettes like bright
colors," said Hawley. "They love
red and green."

Ackerman returned home Sat
urday night after spending

Auxiliary Chooses
Queen Candidate
Susie Hendrickson, five-year-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Cornelius Hendrickson, 706 Vic
tory street, has been named can
didate to represent the Medford
Eagles lodge and auxiliary in
annual Pear Blossom Queen
contest events.
the laboring man. The candidate
said he was opposed to negative
loyalty oaths.
In the question period he
stated his support for United
Nations and pointed out that he
is president of the Portland
chapter of Oregon United Na
tions association. The UN is the
only organization through
which "we can deal with our
enemies and talk over world
problems," Mr. Hitchcock de
clared. He was questioned on his
stand about power, and after ex
plaining that there is a potential
power shortage in the Pacific
northwest, Mr. Hitchcock added
that he believed some power
projects were of the type which
must be federally financed, and
that others could be financed
under the so-called "partner
ship" plan,. "The Pacific north
west needs all the power it can
get," he declared.
Questioned about the Bricker
amendment, the candidate said
he was opposed to it.
Mr. Hitchcock concluded by
saying that he was untroubled
by President Eisenhower's re
cent praise of Seecretary, Mc
Kay, who is also a candidate for
the senate, and that he did not
believe the president had meant
to endorse one Republican can
didate over another but only to
commend Mr. " McKay for his
work as Secretary of the Inte
rior. In introducing Mr. Hitchcock,
the Rev. Mr. Bolster praised him
highly saying that he had known
the candidate for many years
and that he is a man of "un
swerving loyalty, unquestioned
integrity and of the highest
moral character." The minister
spoke of Mr. Hitchcock as an
"outstanding layman" who is a
former moderator of the Pres
byterian church in Oregon and
a former president of the Ore
gon Council of Churches.
In 1953 Mr. Hitchcock re
ceived the Oregon Brotherhood
award from the National Confer
ence of Christians and Jews.
Together with his public in
formation representative, Frank
Herbert, Mr. Hitchcock left
Medford immediately after the
luncheon for Roseburg where he
was to meet with supporters at
4 p.m. He was booked for a
meeting in Portland last night,
will address a noon meeting of
the Hood River Lions club today
and tonight is to be guest speak
er for the annual meeting of
the Oregon Council of Churches
in Milton-Freewater.
Prior to Mr. Hitchcock's in
troduction, the organization
passed a resolution praising Mrs.
Frank Bash, county Republican
chairman, for her outstanding
accomplishments and service to
the party.
More than 150 members of the
club, their guests and interest
ed persons heard Mr. Hitchcock
speak.
Later the group held a routine
business meeting and made
plans for further meetings to
hear other candidates and to aid
the Republican campaign in
Medford and Jackson county
this summer and fall. Plans to
encourage registration, which is
running behind that of 1954,
were discussed.
