EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday, October 18. 19S6 Eisenhower Promises to Press For Approval of School Proaram Tacoma, Wash. ;U.R; Presi dent Eisenhower promised today he will press for congressional approval early next year of his $4,000,000,000 school construc tion program. In a speech prepared for de livery at the College of Puget Sound, Mr. Eisenhower said he will ask that the school con struction program be carried out in four years, instead of the five he originally set. The program was blocked in Congress this year after the ra cial segregation issue was tied in with it. Democrats and Re publicans have blamed each year he will support his school construction program "with all the force at my command . . . for I hold this action to be es sential to the welfare of the re public." Wednesday night the Presi dent stepped up his attack on Adlai E. Stevenson. He charged the Democratic presidential nominee had based his cam paign on the "half-truth" and twisted "hit and run" state ments. Lashes Out At SteTenson In a speech to a crowd of about 13,000 at Seattle, Mr. Ei senhower also lashed back other for the failure of Congress i at Stevenson on the issue of to pass it. stopping H-bomb tests. Mr. Eisenhower said next He said that his administra tion consistently has "asked only that we have safeguards that we can trust, as well as others can trust, so that this path of peace toward universal disarmament can be travelled by all." Peaceful uses of the atom are the main objective of his administration, Mr. Eisen hower said. "We simply refuse to do it all alone," he said. "Until others do it with us, we are going to stay strong." In an assault on Stevenson's campaign tactics, the President also accused his Democratic op ponent of dealing in "the big straddle" and "the old-fashioned double standard o therwise known as the rubber yardstick." Administration Plans Another Step in Reaching Decision on Israel Loan Washington !U.f!, The ad ministration is about to take another step toward reaching a final decision on Israel's bid for a $75 million American loan. Israel is seeking the money to help finance various irrigation and agricultural projects. Administration officials said today that a three-man mission from the export-import bank will leave for Israel within a week to 10 days to make an on-the-spot check of irrigation proj ects already under development. Indications are that a final decision on the loan will not be possible before the Nov. 6 elec tion. Some Republican politi cians had hoped for action be fore that date.

(International Soundphoto) Jacob Javits, Republican candi date for the Senate from New York, recently urged quick ad ministration action on the Israeli project. Stressed Importance Javits stressed the importance of the loan during an Oct. 2 con ference with Secretary of State John Foster. Dulles. Javits said after the meeting that he had won Dulles' assurances "he would give the matter his per sonal attention." President Eisenhower may be able to give a report on the loan's status when he speaks in Madison Square Garden Oct. 25. But officials denied reports that there are plans for Dulles to make a pre-election announce ment of the loan's approval. There had been reports that such- an announcement would be made to counter Jewish wrath over U.S. inaction on Is rael's appeal for defensive arms from this country. No Information Vice President Richard M. Nixon was asked on a nation w i d e television program Wednesday night whether such reports were true. He replied that he had no information on the question. Export-import bank officials stressed that the loan would not be approved or disapproved fi nally by that agency until the three-man mission has reported back, probably sometime in November. The fact that the mission is being sent is regarded as a good sign in diplomatic and financial circles. But bank officials indi cated the loan would be con sidered very carefully, particu larly in the light of Israel's pre vious loans from the bank total ling $135,000,000. This total has been cut to $119,000,000 at the present time by principal payments.

Facts on Nitrogen Fertilizing Retention in Soil NH3 . (anhydrous ammonia) gives plants nitrogen in a form they can use immediately and maintains a supply of plant nourish ment throughout the growing season. Applied at least 6" deep in the soil where the temperature is cool the ammonia is fully retained by soil particles and is highly re sistant to leaching. Scientific applications make sure Shell NH3 is always placed 6" or more be low the soil surface. Crop nourishment remains on tap all growing season.

Elmer Deetz, Can by, who is best known for his "gallon jug" dairy fight and his candidacy for the Republican nomination as U. S. senator last spring, was a Jackson county visitor yesterday and today. His visit was on behalf of Re publican candidates, particularly Douglas McKay, who was suc cessful in the primary election. He was to speak at Ashland at noon today, and go on to Klam ath Falls this evening. Earlier appearances this week have been at Cave Junction, Grants Pass and Rogue River. He had no public talk scheduled in Med ford. Rogue River Talk His Rogue River talk was to a group of farmers and business men, during which he said the farmer has a choice of voting "either for a sound and construc tive . administration farm plan, or go back to the unsuccessful rigid price supports" of the Dem ocratic party. "The farmer wants the gov ernment to do only what they are unable to do for themselves," he said in asking support for McKay. The charge that small farmers and small businesses are being "squeezed out," he said is "only a far cry of politicians who wish to make hay for their own po litical career." He said his re cent trips have convinced him that their greatest fear is "what type of federal controls will be passed in congress by politi cians." "McKay," he said, "is sold on my philosophy of the free enter prise fight for freedom of con trols on the farmers."
