Tough
Harritnan Expected
To Call (or
Civil Rights Plank
Washington U.R) The .word
came from Gov. Averell Harri-
man'i camp today that he prob
ably will use a Southern forum
this week to call for a tough
civil rights plank in the Demo
cratic party platform.
The New Yorker, who ad
dresses a National Press club
lunch here today, has his next
major speech set for a Young
Democratic meeting at Ashboro
N. C, Saturday night.
Now viewed as Adlai E. Stev
enson's chief challenger for the
Democratic presidential nomina-
tion, Harriman is not expected
to make any major bid for
Southern support in his appear
ance before a southern audience.
Discuss Party Problems
He is expected, instead, to talk
about party platform problems
in the North and why it needs
a strong civil rights plank of
the type Southerners oppose to
hold Negro voters.
Other political news:
1. President Eisenhower con
ferred at his Gettysburg, Pa.,
farm with Republican National
Chairman Leonard W. Hall to
discuss plans for the GOP Na
tional convention and campaign
strategy.
2. Vice President Richard M.
Nixon,- who returned Wednes
day from an Asian tour, said
his announcement of last April
that he would be happy to be
Mr. Eisenhower's running mate
again still stands. The comment
was Nixon's first on his political
future since Mr. Eisenhower re
iterated his second term .candi
dacy.
Scorti Knowland Announcement
3. Sen. Mike Mansfield ID
Mont.) said Wednesday night
that Mr. Eisenhower should have
told the people directly that he
intends to run again rather than
passing the word through the
White House "guard." The Presi
dent's plans were announced by
Senate Republican Leader Wil
liam F. Knowland.
In North Carolina, Harriman'
will be in the home state of Gov.
Luther Hodges, a Stevenson
backer who recently questioned
Harriman's ability to carry tra
ditionally Democratic southern
states against President Eisen
hower. Most of the South is leaning
toward Stevenson, whose sud-
porters are anxious to write a
party platform which the South
will swallow, even if it protests.
Exhibition of Nutrias Set
To Interest More Raisers
Nutria, beaver-like fur bear
ing animals, will be on display
tomorrow and Saturday at the
Monarch Feed and Seed com
pany farm store, corner of 10th
and South Fir sts.
A brown male, a white male
plus several half-grown "'kit
tens" will be exhibited.
Joe W. Casad, local nutria
rancher who is sponsoring the
display, is the local agent for
Purebred Nutria associates Inc.,
which is trying to create interest
in nutria raising in southern
Oregon.
Casad's ranch is located at his
home, route 1 box 399-A, Med
ford. Purebred Nutria associates
Inc. was formed several years
ago, taking membership from
about 400 nutria growers on the
west coast. It provides protec
tion for nutria growing from be
coming "just another fur breed
ing animal racket," Casad said.
Ranchers are given advant
ages such as free exchange of
breeding males, collective grow
ing pens, perfection of feeding
methods and collective market
ing through the association.
Association headquarters are
at Lancaster, Calif. Authorized
brokers and sales representa
tives for pelts and by-products
produced by the association are
W. S. Curtis and associates.
Casad said that nutria ranch
ing is expanding particularly in
California. Oregon and Utah.
The association estimated that
the spring of 1957 pelting pro
gram will gross about 8,000
pelts, the spring of 1958 about
50,000, and a continually in
creased number in future years.
Anyone interested in nutria
raising may contact Casad.
