News Candidate Is Speaker For Republican Women "Oregon is a slumbering giant giant that must be awakened if we are to achieve our destiny," Elmo Smith. former governor of Oregon and Republican candidate for the United States Senate, told a meeting of the Jackson county unit, Oregon Federa tion of Republican Women's clubs yesterday noon at the Red Cross building. The candidate said that Ore gon "has the greatest undevel oped industrial potential in America-a potential that is al most unbelievable." The ex governor declared that Ore gon has water transportation as good as there is in the United States, has excellent rail and air transportation fa cilities and "the best highway system of any size in the na tion.' "We have extensive natural resources and the wide acre ages of land in abundance that are needed by modern indus try," Mr. Smith continued. Oregon stands strategically al a cross roads for commerce in the future. Our trade with the Far East is growing rapid ly. We are ideally situated ge ographically to serve the ex panding markets in the North west. This is demonstrated by Oregon's rate of growth as a wholesale distribution center, much faster rate of growth than Washington has." Must Move Fast The candidate said that Or- egonians will have to "move faster" if the state is to achieve its destiny as the in dustrial, trade and commer cial center of the Pacific Northwest and declared that the present representation in Washington, D.C., "has fallen short." The speaker pointed out that the state of Washing ton has received 44 times as much as Oregon, and Cali fornia 240 times as much as Oregon in federal monies spent for new space age proj ects. He spoke of the Hanford atomic installation in Wash ington, of the various United States Air Force bases In that state and mentioned that Washington has major Army and Navy bases. The speaker declared that if Oregon received its propor tionate share of federal monies, it would be equal to the money which a county of 50,000 would spend. Along wim natural re sources and other "potentials" Oregon has a well educated and well trained force of workers, the former governor said. He mentioned that Ore gon has "the fourth highest grade completion average for students in the United State" and said that this high level of education provides a tre mendous reservoir of skilled labor supply, a major asset for industry. Because opportuni ties here are limited, many of our first-rate science and oth er graduates go to other states for employment, Mr. Smith declared. The candidate stressed his business knowledge and back ground as being an asset to United States senator and Phone SP 2-6428 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. Social Events said that the men and women which Oregon had elected to the congress have had inter ests which are "too divided" to properly care for the wal- fare of the state. He said he believed national interests should come before interna tional and added "If elected, 1 will never forget that my prime interest and responsi bility are to Oregon Aided State Former Governor Smith spoke of his efforts to aid the development of Oregon during his terms in the state legisla ture and his term as governor. He pointed out that the legis lation he introduced and spon sored made possible the pres ent highway system, a model for other states, that he had sponsored creation of the State Water Resources board, Oregon's "most significant conservation legislation." Speaking of the proposal to establish a national park in the Oregon Coast dunes area, Mr. Smith said "if the federal government has that much money to spend in Oregon, lets spend it on highways and harbor development." As far as beauty and natural re sources are concerned, the whole coast of Oregon could be turned into a national park, Mr. Smith added. The dunes topic was brought up again during a question and answer period, and the candidate said he had been told the national park would cost about $30 millions. Asked to clarify his position about the United Nations, Mr. Smith said he had voted against a piece of proposed legislation several years ago involving approval of a world federation because "it would mean giving up our auton omy" and added that "I am not against the United Na tions." The question of the Forand bill was brought up and Mr. Smith said he believed this bill dealing with medical aid for those on social security was "unfair, inadequate and unequal." He said he disliked the fact that it would be com pulsory, pointed out that the insurance would cover an ill ness only for six months and that the bill does not provide for those not under social se curity. "The Forand bill is a polit ical cliche which is supposed to solve everything," he add ed. Mr. Smith also said he be lieved the matter of retire ment at 65 might be revised since "many people over 65 have vast capabilities and ex perience; they are not neces sarily candidates for the old folks home." Candidate Smith was intro duced by Representative Eve lyn Nye of the Oregon legisla ture and the meeting was pre sided over by Mrs. Frank Bash, president of the club. In closing the meeting, she asked Mr. Smith to comment on the Republican convention which he said had been con ducted in an orderly and dig nified manner and during which "great decisions had been made."
