V THE ELECTION . . . And You (The following space is mad available on Tuesdays. Thursdays and Sundays during th election campaign lo the two major political parties so that ihey may publish, without charge, material concerning the presidential elec tion race. Offerings are limited to 400 words, must hare the approval of the county chairman of the party, and must be submitted not later than 2 p.m. the day before publication on week days, at 11 a.m. Saturdays for Sunday publication.) REPUBLICAN STATEMENT The Democratic Party with the use of catchy phrases and slocans is attempting to woo the average American voter by leav ing the impression that the Re publican Party is one of special interests. However, an examina-1 tion of facts clearly refutes this impossible theory. The Eisen hower administration has con tinually worked for the welfare of all the people. The facts are: 1. The wage earner received a Targer share of the gross na tional product in take home 5-Vages under the Eisenhower Re J.ublican Administration than un ' drr the previous Democratic Ad ministration. 2. Corporation profits took a smaller share- of the gross na tional product under the Eisen hower Republican Administra tion than under the previous Democrat Administration. 3. Small businesses received a larger share of all government contracts under the Eisenhower Republican Administration than under the previous Democrat Administration. 4. There was more unemploy ment during the previous Demo crat Administration than under the Eisenhower Republican Ad ministration. The income of the wage earner is at an all time high. Perhaps, more important, is the fact that inflation has been checked so that increases in wages have not been absorbed by inflation. The dollar today will buy practically as many goods and services as it would in 1952. However, throughout the Democratic ad ministration increases in wages were off-set by inflation which operated to decrease the purchas ing power of the dollar. The facts graphically illustrate that the Eisenhower administra tion has been one that has work ed for the welfare of all of the people. It has given us peace without oppression, prosperity without war, and progress with out big government. If the peo ple of Oregon are going to play a part in this administration and continue this prosperity and peace, they must re-elect Presi-!

They have taken it on the chin for four years from the Eisenhower Ad ministration, and know it. r'armers are always caught in a price squeeze. They usually get less than their share of the con sumer's dollar for their products, and always have to pay the high prices set by manutacturers for the goods they buy. Since 1952 farm prices went down 18 and farm income 267,. At the same time corpora tion profits increased by 34 and landlord income 24 To. Par ity the prices farmers get in relation to what they pay for manufactured articles dropped from 100 in 1952 to 80. As a result of this squeeze. 500.000 people have been forced off the farms, leaving a way of life they loved for less desirable work in cities and towns. Adlai Stevenson, the Demo cratic candidate for president, promises to make the farmer a first-class citizen again. If elect ed, he "will undertake immedi ately by appropriate action to endeavor to regain full 100 of parity the farmers received un der the Democratic administra tion." This will be done by means of support on basic com modities at 90 of parity, and by loans, direct purchases, pay ments to producers, marketing agreements and orders, produc tion adjustments and other de vices. The farmer will get a larger share of the consumer's dollar than he is now getting. Nor is this all the help the farmer needs if he is to remain "an upright, self-sustaining pro ducer. Many of our soils need replenishment. Soil conserva tion suffered a body blow from the Eisenhower administration when the Soil Conservation Serv ice developed by the Democrats was torn apart and largely dent Eisenhower and elect a member of his team to assist him in the Senate. That can be done only by voting for Doug McKay, Republican candidate for United States Senator. CLOSECUT SALE go! Short Alcoa Aluminum CLOTHES DRYER Reg. $4.98 While They Last $98 Ram is commg.
