Mike Mansfield (D-Mont.), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, today attacked GOP foreign policy ideas expressed at the Republican National Conven tion as outmoded. Another Democrat, Chairman Wright Patman of the House Small Business Committee, ac cused Washington Gov. Arthur B. Langlie, GOP keynoter, of making "false statements" about Republican aid to small business. Election Losses Seen At the-same time, a Republi can, Rep. Usher L. Burdick of North Dakota, said the adminis tration's farm' program may cost the GOP congressional seats in North Dakota and possibly other wheat belt states. Mansfield said the Eisenhower administration has "failed to come up with a single new idea" on foreign policy. "Contrary to 1952 campaign promises," he said, the GOP ad ministration is still depending largely on Democratic foreign policies "which many of us felt had outlived their usefulness." Mansfield discounted foreign policy claims made by former New York Gov. Thomas E. Dewey in a speech to the Repub lican Convention. Dewey told the delegates Wednesday that President Eisenhower brought a responsible ' foreign policy out of "chaos" left by former Presi- FOR SOMETHING GOOD At Anytime SHOP AT f MARKET I 1201 North Riverside.

'Same Old Record' "Poor Mr. Dewey is playing the same old record," Mansfield told reporters. Instead of new ideas, Mans field said, the Republicans "have given us slogans and high sound ing phrases such as 'instant retal iation,' 'brink of war,' and var ious others." Patman said Langlie was only 20 per cent correct" in saying the government s Small Business Administration made more than $250 million worth of loans dur ing three years of GOP control of the government. The Texas Democrat said the SBA has made only $52 million in loans to small business under the Eisenhower administration.

Saudi Arabia Warns West on Using Force On Egypt Over Suez London U.R) Saudi Arabia has warned the United States that millions of dollars of Amer ican oil installations would "go up in smoke" if the West tries to impose its Suez decision on Egypt by force, the Egyptian embassy announced today In Paris. The embassy issued a state ment saying King Aud had de cided after two weeks of "diplo matic conversations" in Cairo to warn Washington that he "de clines all responsibility should the situation deteriorate in the Middle East." The warning came as India and Soviet Russia threw the Thornton Predicts Tax Cuts for -Air Under Republicans San Francisco !U.R) For mer Gov. Dan Thornton of Colo rado told the Republican Con vention today that "all" Ameri cans can look forward to tax cuts during the next four years. Thornton made the prediction in an address prepared for de livery to the convention in which he answered charges made at the Democratic Convention last week. He said the Democrats claimed that "Republicans deny tax relief to middle and low income families."

MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE 0 H, YES. There's another one. Stassen. What's he up to? . LET'S deal with the weather first, because to Native Calif ornians which includes every body who came here earlier than week before last weather is an all-important subject. It's the climate that has brought California up right behind New York in population, and it is the climate that is expected to push California far a head of New York in just about no time at all. Although it cleared by 10 o'clock, the fog was low over the city this morning, and it was worrying the staff in this hotel all of them enthusiastic Calif omians of at least a month's standing. The waitress at break fast she later confessed she was six months out of Iowa was afraid it would deter these convention visitors from mov ing out to the Coast. "Where you from," she asked "Massachusetts, like most of the rest of them in this hotel?" "Oh no," we replied, "we're from Southern Oregon." "Oh," she breathed with a sigh of relief, "you're practical ly home folks anyway." 'To Ba Lowered Some More' "The truth is our people all of our people notjust-a,few, have lower taxes across the board, and they're going to be lowered some more in the next four Republican years," he said. Thornton said the Eisenhower administration in 1954 put into effect a $7.4 billion tax cut, 83 per cent of which went to low and middle income families. Fur ther, he said, reductions in gov ernment spending made by the administration saved each Amer ican a total of $1,200. GOP Tells Truth Thornton catalogued other dif ferences between what he said is "the truth" and what the Demo crats said at their convention in Chicago last week. The 45-year-old ex-governor said the motto of the Eisenhower administration and the Republi can campaign "is, and will be truth-truth-truth." Thornton is a candidate for the seat to be vacated this year by Republican Sen. Eugene D. Mil liken. Thornton took issue with Dem ocratic statements exp r e s s i n g doubt whether any labor spokes man "believes that the Republi can party is his true friend." Thornton named three he said have commented favorably on the administration, James C. Pe- trillo, president of the American Federation of Musicians; George Meany, president of the AFL CIO, and Jacob Potofsky, presi dent of the Amalgamated Cloth ing Workers. He quoted their statements. Small Business Gains To a charge that thousands of independent small merchants have gone out of business under the Republicans, Thornton re plied that in 1955 the nation's net gain of new small businesses was 63,000, the highest since 1948. And he scoffed at any sugges tion that Mr. Eisenhower de pends on the Democratic major ity in Congress to enact his pro gram. "The truth is, a majority of Republicans supported President Eisenhower on 607 of 675 total roll call votes in the House and Senate during the 83rd and 84th Congresses," he said. Farm Prices Said Higher "A majority of Democrat con gressmen opposed the President on 47 per cent of these votes." As for charges that the admin istration "has followed a policy of driving farm prices down," Thornton said the opposite was true, that in "the first six months of 1956 there has been an 11 per cent increase in the price of farm products." Suez conference into a 24-hour delay. Western sources said the delay was an apparent move to give Egypt time to prepare its answer to Western plans for Suez before they could be offi cially presented. Secretary of State John Fos ter Dulles, reported angered at the filibuster, reminded the the delegates Wednesday night: "Do not let us forget that this is a situation of the utmost gravi ty to the peace of the world confronting us." The 18 nations backing the Dulles plan for placing the Suez Canal under international con trol were making plans to send a high level delegation to Egypt even if President Gamal Abdel Nasser rejects it in advance. Dulles Gives Deadline It was this issue that brought on the Indian and Soviet "stalling."- Indian Minister V. K. Krishna Menon demanded more time to consult his government in Ne wDelhi. Soviet Foreign Minister Dmitri Shepilov also Insisted on a delay. Dulles told1 both nations the; majority nations would risk waiting only until tonight be fore forming their own delega tion. The American secretary hoped to leave for Washington tonight after today's session. VlUn beau'lifuf r2i i Ant odd water. Snoot ttarcii text sprinc-freih frogronce peeeliules fabrics eeeisY. Motes weehables took ami feel tke mmm. Get QUICK RASne uovm sTArcit tedarf COCA-COLA BOTTIINO COMPANY OF MEDFORD IN CALIFORNIA, this Nixon business is puzzling. Nobody seems to be ALL OUT for him. But just let somebody pan Dick ever so slightly and he's apt to lose his hair especially if the person he's talking to is from NORTHERN California. THAT'S another one for the book. Nixon is from south of the Tehachapi, and on most subjects water, in particular the Southlanders are clannish to a marked degree. But on Nixon it's different. Taking the situa tion by and large and allowing for the neccessary exceptions to prove ' the rule Dick seems to have more enthusiastic support ers in the north than in the south. Maybe it's the old principle of the prophet not being with- j out honor save in his own coun try. Maybe it's the old story of the borne town boy going too far too fast. The neighbors just can't believe that everything is on the up and up. He must have got the inside track somewhere. But I thing you can safely bet your bottom dollar that when the chips are all down, all of California will be in there pitch ing for the home state boy. AND- In the final showdown It's a safe bet the GOP won't be willing . to bet its shirt on anybody but Nixon. THAT brings us back to Stas sen and what he's urj to. Nobody knows. Nobody even professes to know. Maybe it's all cut and dried on'ihe' theory that the Democrats do. right, well by themselves by fightin' and feud in' and - fussin' all- the . way through the convention and end ing up in ai love feast: with everybody whooping it up for the ticket and so the Republi cans better take a whirl at that strategy themselves. ' But the PREVAILING opin ion is that Stassen figures he'll be just about the right age for the Presidency in 1960 and wants to keep himself in the spotlight in the meanwhile, feel ing that nobody ever gets any where in these days by going along with the crowd.
