Dolonto Criticism It Is mil, of course, upon i h e s e IntereslInK facts Hint Symington bases his campaign for the Presidency. Ills race Js built primarily on his con tinning criticism of the Ad ministration's defense pro urams. Ren. Clarence, Cannon of Missouri In December of 11)57 said Russian advances in missiles and satellites "auto matically nominated" Syming ton for the Presidency. Defense considerations have taken the bulk of Symington's time and concern since lie went In England for the War Department In 11)41, as a pri vale manufacturer, to study the English method of making gun turrets. On his return lie converted his factory lo Ihclr II effort In a series of appointive Jobs under President Harry S. Truman, from 1040 to 1052. he continued to work 111 the field, lie was the first secre tary of the air force, chair man of the national security resources board and the Presi dent's mobllluitlon coordina tor among other Jobs. Ills criti cism of defense policies is not restricted lo Republican Ad- mlnlstiations; he mill as sec retary of the air force In 1050 In protest against an adminis tration cut In air power from the strength he advocated. Truman immediately appoint ed him to the lough Job of cleaning up the Reconstruc tion Finance Corp. as admin istrator. Truman last month called Symington "the best qualified Area Students Win Awards for Art Salem - Several southern Oregon students have won honor awards for the OMli Oregon State Fair to be held here Sept. 2-10, It was re cently announced.

Symington's demands for changes in U.S. defense poli cies have come in five areas: (I) the relative strength of the United Slates' and the Soviet Union's defense structures; (2) the alleged tendency of the Eisenhower Administration lo subordinate defense prepared ness to budget balancing; (3) the need for a workable and working disarmament pro gram; H) the alleged adminis tration policy of holding back from the public the truth about U.S. defenses; (5) the unification of the services un der a single head. No On-Isiuo-Man Aside from his well-known concern with defense, and de spite suggestions that he is a one-issue man, Symington has been active in other fields. During 10:iH-45, as president of the Emerson Co. In St. Louis, he pioneered In pro viding promotional advance ments for Negroes in thai semi-Soulhern town and, tak ing over after a prolonged strike, he- Improved labor- management relations in his plant to the degree that he was made an honorary union member. During his Senate career, while not a leader, he has consistently voted and moved with the "liberal1 Democrats In the areas of la bor legislation and civil rights. In 1057. 1058. and 1050 he was recorded voting 100 per cent "liberal" In an analysis prepared by the Americans ! for Democratic Action. Symington has criticized the administration farm pro gram. He is a supporter of the "family farmer" and has urg ed a ceasing of stock-piling and, instead, using surpluses for needy people at home and abroad. Symington joined the Demo cratic Advisory Council In No vember 1059 and lias sided with that group against Sen ate Democratic leadership in the argument on how Demo cratic Congressional majority should act under an opposition administration. Symington says, "I would rather sec us pass laws that we believe arc right and then have them vetoed than 1 1 would sec us . . . reduce what we would like to have done on the fear thai what we do might be vetoed." Symington announced his candidacy for the Presidency March 24, 1DB0, two months after early contenders Sens. Hubert II. Humphrey and John F. Kennedy. However, even before he be came an open candidate, Symington refused lo enter any Presidential primary. Ho has said they are not good testing grounds for Presiden tial nominees and that they require n great deal of time and money, "which I do not have." Copyright 1960, Congressional Quarterly Inc.)
