o O o o G O EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL THIBUNE Thursday. NoTcmber 8, 19S6 Democrats Analyze Election Returns To See What Happened To 'Farm Revolt' Washington U.P What hap pened to the "farm revolt" which Democrats banked on to beat President Eisenhower's sec-ona-term bid? An analysis of the returns In dicates that farmer discontent caused the President to get fewer votes in the farm belt than in 1952. but. deflate the losses, he still swept every farm state "ex cept Missouri. Where th farmers turned most decidedly against the Re publicans was in congressional and gubernatorial races. Everybody Happy In Marital Trade Bellflower. Calif. (U.R) Two plastic company officials who switched wives today were back at work in adjoining offices confident that their marital ex change vas the best for everyone concerned. Paul H. Omohundro. 41. presi dent of thea plastics firm, and Glenn Capps, 40, company' sec retary, said that they and their wives had planned for three years to change mates. Omohundro's former wife. Ra chel, and Capps" ex-mate, Mabel, obtained divorces Monday in Las egas, and married each other's husbands shortly afterward. Both wives were given cus tody of their children. Omohun dro and his first wife have two children, Bonnie Ruth, 13, and Thomas Ward, 11. Capps and his former mate- have a daughter. Andrea. 13. and a ' son, Albert Glenn Jr., 8. Omohundro said that the chil dren had plenty of time to get used to the idea of switching households. He said that now the children would have the run of both homes. . A GOP official said in some areas Republicans "apparently lost up to 40 per cent of our 1952 farm vote." Losses were heaviest west of the Mississippi, in areas where farmers have suf fered from drought, he said. In the nation as a whole. Mr. Eisenhower won nearly 58 per cent of the vote compared to 55 per cent in 1952. The Picture .But in farm areas, this was the picture: Nebraska: Elsenhower 65 per cent, down four per cent from 1952. South Dakota: Eisenhower 58 per cent, down nine per cent. Minnesota: Eisenhower 54 per i cent, down two per cent. Illinois: Eisenhower 60 per cent, up five per cent. Much of this sain apparently came in the Chicago area. Missouri: Eisenhower 49 per cent, down two per cent. Iowa: Eisenhower 59 per cent, down five per cent. Kansas:. Eisenhower 66 per cent, down three per cent. Democrats elected governors in the normally Republican farm slates of Iowa and Kansas. And Democratic spokesmen claimed AAA Division' Aidt Woman in Distress Madison, Wis. UK The Wis consin division of the American Automobile Association came to the aid of a woman who was really in distress. A skunk had perfumed her car. Mrs. Nola . Pugh called the AAA and was directed to a Milwaukee fumigator. The fumi gatof said it was' a rather un usual request but chivalrously de-skunked the car. Marshall Field III Dies in Hospital New York (U.R) Marshall Field III, banker, publisher and philanthropist, died today in New York hospital where he re cently underwent brain surgery. Field, founder of the Chicago Sun, which later became the Chicago Sun-Times, entered the hospital Oct. 21. A brief, an nouncement today said the mul timillionaire died at 2 a.m. XPST). Field was born in Chicago in September. 1893. Both his father and grandfather, the famed mer chant prince Marshall Field I, died while he was still a child. He was left a fortune estimat ed at S120 million. Field entered the newspaper business in 1940 when he invest ed $200,000 to help found the paper, PM, in New York. The paper didn't catch on and Field sold it. In 1941 he founded the Chi cago Sun, three days before Pearl Harbor. Six years later he bought control of the Times and merged the papers into the Chicago Sun-Times.

Main-Medford the farm issue helped turn Re publicans out of at least six House seats and two Senate seats. Still Hop The Democrats hoped to pick up two additional GOP farm belt seats in undecided races between Rep. Robert D. Harrison (Neb.) and Lawrence Brock and Rep. James I. Dolliver (Ia.) and Mer win Coad. They also gave the farm problem credit for their near-upset of Sen. Francis Case (R-S.D.) Brock and Coad campaigned for a return to the old Demo cratic program of high, rigid farm supports. Dolliver has taken the same stand, but Harri son who had expected to win easily backed the administra tion farm program. GOP Viw A GOP farm spokesman saw the results this way: "Our farm vote over the count try was near the normal Repub lican farm vote. We lost a lot of the Democrats and independents we got in '52. "Price support wasn't so much of an issue. It was the drought. This election proves you can't make anybody happy with a drought relief program." Republican farm leaders could draw some comfort from the re election of several staunch ad ministration farm supporters, in cluding Sens. Homer E. Cape hart (R-Ind.), Everett M. Dirk sen (R-Ill.) and Bourke B. Hick- enlooper (R-la.) Democratic sources said the new Democrat-controlled Con gress probably will try to restore high, rigid farm price supports if the administration tries to cut 1957 supports below 1956 levels. Trailer House Hauls Forty-one Passengers Enid, Okla.-UR) When Air Force Sgt. Val. Weigel tows his trailer house down the road, he has 41 "passeng'ers." Besides Mrs. Weigel, the trailer is the home of 40 dolls. The collection incudes at least one pair from Saigon, Indochina, Bangkok, Thailand and Ran goon, Burma. They range in height from eight to 12 inches and all wear native costume. The Weigels started collecting dulls in 1951 when the sergeant was stationed in Singapore. Most of the dolls are from Asiatic countries, but now they are con centrating on European speci mens. They hope someday to have a Stevenson Rests ! At Libertyville Farm Chicago (U.R) Adlai E. Stevenson rested at his nearby Libertyville, 111., farm today and pondered his future course in public affairs. The defeated Democratic pres idential candidate held a post mortem huddle Wednesday with top advisers, most of whom told him the Middle East crisis pro vided the impetus for President Eisenhower's landslide victory. Clayton Fritchey. Stevenson's chief press aide, said the beaten candidate probably would re lease by the end of the week a statement on his future plans. The former Illinois governor early Wednesday conceded de feat to President Eisenhower for the second time in four years and called on all Americans to give the administration all re- glass display case, but for now the dolls are kept in a teakwood chest from Singapore. New Jersey Governor Engaged To Marry Oberlin, Ohio (U.R) The President of Oberlin college an nounced today the engagement of his daughter, Helen Stevenson to Gov. Robert B. Meyner of New Jersey. Dr. William E. Stevenson did not reveal the exact date of the wedding but he said it would take place sometime in January, probably in Oberlin. Meyner, 48, and Miss Steven son were expected to tell about their betrothal at a news con ference at the state house m Trenton, N.Y., today. The handsome governor, con sidered one of the nation's most eligible bachelors, met Miss Stevenson when he spoke at a mock political convention at Ob erlin college last May 4. Miss Stevenson. 28, is a dis tant cousin of defeated Demo- sponsible support in the troubled times ahead." Third Dogcateher m o Figures To Remain Trumbull, Conn.
