Klein, in a telephone Interview with Uni ted Press International. As for the position of party leadership, Klein sa&l half of more tnan du.uuu letters re ceived by his office have urged Nixon to remain active in politics.

Klein said Nixon ran ahead of the Republican congression al ticket nationally. He cap tured 228 congressional dis tricts, while President - elect John F. Kennedy carried 206. However, Kennedy s were in big-vote areas that carried with it the necessary presi dential electoral votes; Klein reiterated the views that Nixon concedes his task in the immediate future as one of providing leadership for a "constructive opposition" to liberal Democratic proposals, . He said that desftite rumors the Vice President "hasn't de cided yet" on the job he will take when he goes out of office Jan. 20. He confirmed, how ever Nixon was "looking at" offers from three Los Angeles law rfrms, but said no decision had been reached. To Do Duty Asked if Nixon woiSd: ful fill for the remaining weeks his constitutional duty f pre siding over the Senate when Congress reconvenes Jan. 3, Klein said: "Yes, I expect him to be in the chair. .. . . Last week, Nixon worked at his Capitol Hill office for the first time since the elec tion, tackling a ricklog of correspondence and again as suming an active part in poli tics, He' has had numerous ap pointments with persons who helped In his campaign, and has visited with GOP con gressional leaders' including Reps. Leslie Arends of Illi nois, Bob Wilson of California, Sen. Hugh Scott of Pennsyl vania, and Sen. Thruston B. Morton of Kentucky, who al.ffj is GOP national chairman. These and other visitors were in addition to his meet ings with Rockefeller, Henry Cabotr Lodge,, and the White House dinner with President Eisenhower. - '' , '- Police Investigate 2 Break and Entries "Med ford police Saturday were investigating a' break and entry and an attempted break. and entry. , Two. cases of beer were taken from the Schmidt Dis tributing company, 1213 Court st., some time between Frida night and early Saturday morning, police said. .The thief or thieves pried two ' hasps off the loading dock door to enter, police said.

Acrilan luxury of deep pile MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, Green Prods GOP To Show Evidence 01 Vote Frauds Washington - IUP1) - Sen. Theodore Francis Green (D R. I.) Saturday prodded the Republicans to turn over' to his Senate investigating sub committee immediately any evidence of voting irregulari ties. Green, 93-year-old chairman of the Senate subcommittee on privileges and elections, made the request in a tele gram to GOP National Chair man Thruston B. Morton. It said: "It is imperative that you turn over to this subcommittee immediately for the use of the Senate any in formation or evidence you may have which' would affect the results of the presidential election." Such data, if submitted, presumably could provide the basis for a major congression al investigation into. GOP charges of presidential elec tion ballot fraud in several states. Makes Impaction Morton, fcho made an on-the-scene inspection of GOP vote recount efforts in Cook county, HI., has said there is a "remote possibility" that Vice President Richard M, Nixon would wind up as the victor over President - elect John F. Kennedy. However, other Republican leaders tend ed to discount the possibility of an election reversal. Green said in a prepared statement that the same re quftt for information has been made to the Democratic na tional chairman, Sen. Henry M. Jackson of Washington. HJ; pointed out to Morton that his subcommittee is charged with the duty of In vestigating alleged violations in matters "relating to the election of the president, vice president or members of Con gress." Green added that he issued a request Nov. 12, in a wire to Morton asking for any evi dence of election law viola tions. But to date, he told Morton, the subcommittee "has received to reply or ac knowledgement at all from you or any other official of the Republican national com mittee." Despite this, Green noted he has read almost daily press reports concerning charges at tributed to Morton and to oth er GOP officials alleging widespread vote fraud in a number of states.' Milk Labeling Rules Problem tg Dairies Salem-WPII-A State Agricul ture department official said Thursday some dairies are finding it difficult to comply with regulations for labeling of milk products. Ken Carl of the foods and dairies division told a meeting of milk sanitarians here that the feeling is the regulations are too general. There are 21 standards of identity for milk and milk products. Carl said he Inspect ed 23 plants recently and 40 per cent of the milk cartons checked were in violation of the law. Violations included improp er plant Identity, improper name of product, lack of for tification statement and lack of source of composition data and vitamin source. .

LONGEST 100 Ill 2 MEDFORD, OREGON West Expects Communists To Issue Peace Manifesto London - (UPI) A Commu nist manifesto by the 81-mem-ber Red summit meeting prob ably will be . published next week and will contain an ap peal for world disarmament, the end of colonialism and for peace, diplomatic reports said Saturday. The manifesto was said to signify a "qualified victory for Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev's policy of peace ful co-existence over the war- Gomulka Claims Reds In Accord On Petfte Policy Warsaw UP Polish Com munist leader Wladislaw Go mulka indicated Saturday So viet Premier Nikita Khrush chev's! "peaceful coexistence" policy with the West prevailed over Red Chinese objections at the recent Red "summit" meeting in Moscow. Gomulka, - just back from the three-week secret confer ence of 81 world Communist leaders, told a rally of miners at Katowice the Moscow gath ering had agreed that the East-West struggle "can and should be solved, not by the path of a new wjrld war, but by the way of peaceful com petition between two social systems. Gomulka said the Moscow gathering , took this decision "unanimously" and "in a most decisive manner." SurfaiQ Compromise Gomulka, like East German leader Walter Ulbricht Fri day, thus gave notice the Com munist bloc apparently reach ed at least a surface compro mise between the opposing views of Soviet Russia and Communist China. Gomulka indicated Khrush chev's view that Congnunism could defeat capitalism with out war remained the accepted policy of tjy Red world fol lowing the conference. Western reports have said the Chinese Communists, sup ported by the Albanians and by Far Eastern Communist parlies, strongly pushed the Mao Tse-Tung thesis that war must precede Communism's victory over capitalism," Go mulka said. However, he said, the red summit meeting "con firmed the belief that in our era world war has ceased to be Inevitable." Election Returns Still Coming In Washington-IUPII-Sen John F. Kennedy led Vice President Richard M. Nixbn by a slim 140,878 votes Saturday in al m o s t complete official re turns from the 50 states.

Sources . in Moscow said it would be published in Red capitals next Friday. But authoritative reports leaking out of the three-week long deliberations which end ed this week suggested that the Red leaders left basic ideological differences unre solved. A facade of Communist uni ty was understood to be the underlying feature of the lengthy manifesto. Adopted an Appeal A brief communique issued Thursday in Moscow at the conclusion of the parley said Red leaders, including those from Latin America, adopted "an appeal to the peoples of the world." This appeal was believed to have been expanded in the Proposal to Merge Faiths Rumored San Francisco - (UPI) - A merger of four major Protes tan) denominations will be proposed here Sunday at the Trienniel General Assembly of the National Council of Churches, according to news paper reports. The San Francisco News Call Bulletin auoted "publish ed reports originating in the l?nct"' in tVlft pffpnt that the Droooscd merger would inl volve the Methodist Church, Protestant Episcopal Church, United Church of Christ, and United Presbyterian Church. The proposal would be made by the Rev. Dr. Eugene Car son Blake, stated clerk of the United Presbyterian Church in the United States, the news caper said. Episcopal Bishop James A. Pike of California was to make a brief address follow ing Dr. Blake's appearance at the Grace Cathedral Lectern. The San Francisco Chron icle said earlier that Dr. Blake was expectea to announce Sunday agreement with the Episcopal Church on the com mon liturgical observance of Holy Communion and on ex change of ministers. Agriculture Agency Shakeup Proposed Salem-(UPII-The State Board of Agriculture Thursday ap proved a shakeup in the Ore gon Agriculture department including expansion ot con sumer services. The reorganization plan goes to Gov. Mark Hatfield for his approval. If granted, the reorganization will begin step by step next year. The program includes: -RedesiEnation of the pres ent market development divi sion the division of agricul ture development, with expan sion of its activities. A mar keting specialist and statistici an will be added. -Creation of two assistant directors, . one for livestock industry and the other for consumer and trade activities. -Creation of a department audit service directly respon sible to the director. -Elevation of the business management services to divi sion status. -Addition of an administra tive assistant for routine rec ords and statistical work. is-inevitable theme of manifesto calling for an end to armament, peace, freedom for all nations and an end to all colonialism in the world. Unanimity on this appeal ap- rently was reached by careful phrasing of the major international c o m m u n i st goals. Even Red China has spoken of "peacet" while avowedly fanning revolution in newly emerging nations. That section of the manifes to dealing with ideology was said to be a masterpiece of Marxist double - talk which would take western experts some time to interpret. The manifesto, according to reports, encourages revolu tionary movements-but does so in a guarded manner as an apparent compromise between Moscow and Peiping. 7 Explain to Parties The Communist leaders who attended the Moscow talks were instructed to ex plain to their parties at home the outcome of the conclave. Khrushchev himself was ex pected to report to the cen tral committee of the Soviet Communist party which meets Footlighters Pick Next Production "Born Yesterday" has been chosen by the play reading commttjee of Footlighters for the group s next production- It was selected by the com mitu at a meeting held last Sunday evening at' the home of Dr. Lawrence Ware.

Nixon, reports Republicans have received "a number" of complaints from the public that news coverage of the presidential election campaign was not fair to Nixon. Pierre Salinger, press sec retary to President-elect John F. Kennedy, said press cover age of Kennedy in the cam paign was the fairest given any Democratic candidate in recent years. But he also cited examples of what he said were slanted stories against the president-elect that ap peared in. the press.
