SUNDAY, OCTOBER 2. 1960 6 A MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. i 1 le'l a. sti ell Si: d pr Tl la m th Al W- di F di in. w tr : W ai- si ; Campaign Quotes By Uniied Press International Sen. John F. Kennedy ! spent the day resting at his ; Hyannis Port, Mass., home. ' But his press secretary, Pier-e : Sallneer. was authorized to i say this in reply to Nixon charges about defeat of Ken- nedy-backed legislation in the ; summer session of Congress: "There is no question that , R e p u b lican obstructionism prevented enactment of these , bills." i "The vice president seemed j to have missed the marK ra ther widely. It was not Sen , , Kennedy who suffered de- I feat, but the people." i Salinger said the defeat ' was felt by persons "hoping to get a $1.25 an hour mini i mum wage, effective medical ; care for the aged, effective legislation for federal aid for '. schools. And If Vice President Nixon can derive any satis ; faction out of this defeat of the legitimate aspirations of the people, that is his prlvi- : lege." ; Democratic vice presiden- -. tial candidate Lyndon B - Johnson at a Democratic ral- : ly in Jackson, Tenn.: "The 5 Republicans suffer from de- luslons of adequacy, and the ' case is too advanced for an ; effective cure." "In. 1947, his (Nixon's) - (first year in Congress, the .Republican candidate for , President voted against rals- i ing REA (Rural Electrifica ; tion Administration) funds ' from $225 million to $250 mil. , Hon. In 1948 he voted against i providing $300 million neea ; ed for REA loans, and against restoring a 50 per cent cut in funds for the administration ; of the REA program. Yet he ; says he is for farmers. What farmers does he mean-those . in Outer Mongolia? Certainly he has shown no friendship for the farmers of America." ', Vica President Richard M. Nixon at Binghampton, N.Y., ' challenging Kennedy's TV ; debate statement that Russia ! by 1975 will be producing more power than the United , States: "If Ambrica stood ab solutely still, if we built not . one additional hydroelectric i project between now and then, the Soviet would be- 'faced with the monumental task of building eight Grand Coulee dams a, year from now until 1977 just to catch up to where America is today in hydroelectric power. At Schenectady, N.Y.: is not necessary to tear Amer ica down In order to build her up. Senator Kennedy should immediately correct these factual distortions of th? strength of the American sys tem." : "He should also stop mak ing them, even for the pur poses of the campaign. The American people have the in telligence to separate fact from fiction in a political cam paign. But the Communists will not concede them that In their propaganda. "It is not enough that the senator say, as he did yester day, that 'we are the strong est nation on earth today.' The Communists will overlook this truth and circulate only the falsehood. If the senator will stick to the facts ... he will lose no real opportuni ties to advance his candidacy at home and America will lose nothing abroad."
