Newspaper Page TextG WEDNESDAY. JUNE IS, i960 10 A MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. Nixon's Ability As Vote-Getter Seen in Primaries Washington (UPII Vice President Richard M. Nixon has staked a new 'claim of vote-getting ability on a re port showing he set an "all time high" of political sup port in the 1960 presidential primaries. Nixon's office said that his total vote In nine primaries exceeded that of President Eisenhower in the same 1956 contests, and topped the com bined vote of seven 1960 Dem ocratic presidential contenders. Herbert G. Klein, Nixon's press secretary, said this dem onstrated that "the one vote getter in the primaries un doubtedly was Richard M. Nixon." : The summary was made public as GOP leaders rallied behind the vice president in the face of New York Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller's chal lenge of the Eisenhower-Nixon leadership. Oregon Primary Cited Primaries cited were in New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Illin ois, Massachusetts, Pennsyl vania, Indiana, Nebraska, Oregon and California. Klein told newsmen that Nixon's showing "erased any doubt that he can attract votes" - even though he faced no GOP opponents and did not personally campaign in any of the states. - "To do this he attracted all parts of the party - independ ents as well as the party faith ful," Klein asserted. : The survey gave the Nixon strategists ammunition to off set the feeling of some Repub licans that Nixon "can't win" because they believe he can not attract enough Democrat ic and independent votes. ' In two of the nine primar ies, Nixon's vote was entirely a "write-in" tribute whereas Eisenhower's name was on each of the 1956 ballots, Klein said. Some Not Counted Nixon polled a total of 4, 360,576 votes (not counting some absentee ballots still to be recorded) against an Eisen hower 1956 total of 4,306,000. Rockefeller had a total write in vote of 26,000 in live primaries. the vice president out- polled Elsenhower in six of the nine elections - including Nixon's home state of Call fornia. Against Nixon's 4,360,576 votes, the Democratic presi dential front runner, Sen. John F. Kennedy (Mass.) re ceived a direct total of 1, 825,000 votes. This did not in clude any from California, where Kennedy, stood aside for Gov. Edmund G. (Put) Brown, who polled 1,327,638 to Nixon's 1,475,576. Brown's showing was dam aged by opposition from George McLain, a Los Angeles old age pension advocate who ran up more than 634,000 votes In the Democratic pri mary. 'Protest' Vole Seen Nixon got 58.6 per cent of the registered California Re publican vote, while Brown and Mcuain combined at tracted 53.4 per cent of the registered Democrats. Brown polled 36.1 per cent and Mc Lain 17.3 per cent of the rcg istered Democrats. Klein said the Nixon camp Is "confident that the McLain vote was a 'protest' against - the Democratic state adminis tration and represents a large number of Democrats who will vote for the Vice Presi dent in November." "A majority of the people who voted for McLain will vote for Nixon," he added. He said that if Republicans work hard, Nixon "will carry California." Families May Use Y Diamond Camp The Young Men's Christian association has announced a family camp week end July 1 through 4 at the YMCA Dia mond lake camp. The camp program and fa cilities will be turned over to the family groups. They will camp out in tents, or may use their own camping equip ment, Y officials said. Cook ing may be done in the camp kitchen, and beds and mat tresses will be furnished by the camp. The camp boats, game equipment, and swim area will be used by the campers at their own time. However, a YMCA life guard will be on duty most of the day. Sailing and canoeing will also be fea tured. The road to the camp is clearly marked, Y officials said. Families may come and go anytime during the week end. People using the camp are asked to either help out in the camp preparation such as painting and patching tents, or paying a small camp fee. Further information and registration may be obtained from the YMCA SPring 2-6295.. Dust Storms Hamper Russia's Plan of Agriculture Supremacy Washington Jl'Pli-The weath er has been hampering Pre mier Nikita Khrushchev's plan for Soviet Union farms to equal and eventually sur pass production of U.S. farms. Dust storms - the Soviet's call them "Black Storms" have been one of the major roadblocks to Khrushchev's dream of world supremacy in agriculture. Such storms occurred this spring in a belt across the southeastern part of the Uk raine into the northern part of the Caucasus, the area known as the Soviet Union's breadbasket. One of the most severe storms occurred several weeks ago near Krasnodar, a major city in the northern Caucasus between the Black and Cas pian seas. The foreign agri cultural service learned of it through an article titled "17 Against the Storm" in the Moscow newspaper, Izvestia. Sun Obliterated The article dealt with the storm as it affected the Iskra (hot otherwise identified) hog farm and 17 farm workers. "A Black Storm," Izvestia said, "obliterated the sun, chocked off human breath, and caused the farm to be come an island in a raging ocean of dust. "Buildings were buried to their roofs. In the inner yard, the outlet for the water sup ply was covered, and part of a pond on the land was ab sorbed. And inside the build ings, hogs became buried, while sand on the roofs threatened their collapse. "The farm's 17 workers most of them women-took the storm in stride, however, working around the clock to prevent loss of precious live stock. Keeping the water flowing was the first and most urgent job they tackled. "At one point all 17 man ned shovels in the nearly hopeless task of freeing the spigot from dust and debris. At last a tarpaulin was used to shield two men who scoop ed up bucketsful of dust; these were hoisted on ropes over the roof. "Meanwhile, women hog tenders climbed through barn windows and worked to the point of exhaustion digging out the hogs. When the need for additional water became great, they brought it from the pond in buckets, despite the fact that the drifting dust had created a miry shoreline into which they were drawn until they were covered with dough-like mud. "Still they managed to bring back 325 pails of water for the farm's 650 hogs. Hogs Start Farrowing "Then at the height of the storm and in the middle of the night, some of the hogs started farrowing. All 17 workers were mustered into duty to dig open a barn win- . i dow, remove IIS irame, anu haul the hogs and their litters through it to safer quarters. Finally, even these quarters became unsafe because of the weight of the sand on their roofs. The already exhausted hands went to work to clear the roofs, and while the strong wind kept blowing them off, they persistently climbed back to continued the attack. "At last, as though sub dued by the strength of man, the wind died and the sun shone; the 17 workers viewed the clearing skies with dust reddened, but happy eyes." CLIFFORD D.
