Farm Bureau Backs
Eisenhower's Velo
By UNITED PRESS
The powerful American Farm
Bureau Federation backed Presi
dent Eisenhower's farm bill veto
today. But other cornbelt farm
leaders said it will cost the Re
publicans votes.
The national farmers organ
ization, forerunners in the fight
for 100 per cent of parity price
supports, said the veto "will
bring disillusionment to the en
tire farm belt at a time when
some hopes had been held forth."
The national Grange was al
ready on record in favor of the
vetoed bill and a North Dakota
leader of the National Farmers
Union, Glenn Talbott, predicted
the veto "will lead to a drastic
political revolution against the
GOP."
Many Midwest Republican
governors, such as Indiana's
George Craig, praised Mr. Eisen
hower for vetoing the bill. But
In Iowa, where most GOP lead
ers backed the bill, some Repub
lican leaders said they were
sorry over the President's de
cision. Den 9 Cub Scouts

Candidates Speak
At Luncheon Meeting
Of Republican Women
Jackson County Republican
Women heard GOP candidates
seeking nomination in the com
ing primary election outline
their platforms and political
theories at a luncheon meeting
yesterday noon in the YMCA.
About 125 persons attended, and
Mrs. Wayne Stine, program
chairman, introduced candidates.
State Sen. Phil Lowry, first to
speak, substituted for Al Lit
trell, candidate for reelection to
the House of Representatives
from this district since Littrell
was attending a highway com
mittee meeting.
Praises Record
Lowry praised Littrell's record
for his first session and called
him a man of "great integrity
and real diligence." Lowry
urged his audience not to "over
look" the coming election in an
overriding interest in national
politics and stressed the import
ance of Republican control of
the Oregon legislature.
State Rep. E. H. Mann, also
seeking reelection, echoed Low
ry's speech in praise of Littrell's
record and spoke of the advan
tage of returning men. to the
legislature because their exper
ience and seniority is consid
ered in making committee ap
pointments. Mann said .he has
served under three governors
during which time more ' than
4,000 pieces of legislation have
been considered.
' Allen- D. Curry, seeking the
nomination for county assessor,
outlined his Medford background
and spoke of his many years in
the county tax department and
with the city of Medford. He
served the city as an office man
ager in the water department
and as city police judge. Curry
said he would "make no prom
ises except to fairly hear all
grievances," if elected.
Stresses Experience
Also seeking the assessor's
nomination is John H. Tizzeker.
Tizekker stressed his exper
ience earned as an employee in
the tax collector's office and
said because of this he could
serve the county's taxpayers with
"efficiency and impartiality."
Walt Nunley, seeking reelec
tion as district attorney, empha
sized that he has definite theories
and philosophies of government
for -which he offers no apologies
and which he will not change.
Nunley said he had little idea
of whether or not his manage
ment of the district attorney's
work had pleased voters, but
that he was seeking reelection
on the basis that he would con
tinue the office as it had been
during his first term. He spoke
of the valuable experience he
had gained during this term.
Rode Speaks
Following Nunley was George
Rode, Medford attorney also
seeking the nomination for dis
trict attorney. Rode, after brief
ly outlining his education and
law experience, said ideas and
theories were "all righf ' but that
for the office of district attorney
these were not enough; that com
petency in office is what counts.
Rode outlined four points to
back up his charge of incom
petency in the present adminis
tration of the district attorney's
office. He charged that the office
had raised taxes by increasing
the budget from the $4,625
needed in 1951-52 to $17,411 for
1955-56, an increase of almost
400 per cent; that the office was
low in morale and efficiency,
with the district attorney hiring
six deputies in three years; that
the office is "chaotic and hap
hazard" in its enforcement of
criminal laws, resulting in the
thwarting of simple justice, and
that the present administration
had undermined the civil lib
erties of accused persons by
causing them to be arrested at
unusual hours, by interrogating
them in an unlawful fashion and
supplanting thoroughgoing inves

L. G. Morthland, who has al
ready served two terms as coun
ty commissioner and who is
seeking' reelection, spoke of the
many duties which the commis
sioners have to perform, re
viewed the many committees on
which he serves and pointed to
his record as a "conservative" in
money matters.
County Commissioner
Melvin J. Lattie, seeking the
nomination for county commis
sioner, said he is dissatisfied
with the tax situation in Jack
son county and believes it could
be remedied. He said county
taxes had "increased 100 per
cent in one short year" and that
these increases were unjusti
fied. Lattie spoke in consider
able detail of the building of the
courthouse annex, which he said
is referred to around the -county
as "that monstrosity,"' added
that it had cost much more than
the original estimate, and that
it is badly planned with eleva
