Democrats Compbir. Ylbfr Ike1
Picture of Union Is Too Rosv
- y
Washington (TO - Congres
sional Democrats complained
today that President Eisen
hower's picture of the state of
the Union was too rosy. They
said he actually was leaving
the Kennedy administration a
maze of serious unsolved
problems.
But Republicans defended
the President's final State of
the Union message, read to
the House Thursday, as a real
istic summary of the Eisen
hower administration's accom
plishments. The Senate, which did not
meet Thursday, will hear the
message read by a clerk to
day. President - elect John F.
Kennedy had no immediate
comment on the message, in
which Eisenhower conceded
he was leaving the new ad
ministration with some explo
sive foreign and domestic
problems. The President said
Kennedy could solve these if
he tackled them with "stead
fast resolution."
Eisenhower's generally op
timistic message said the na
tion had reached "unprece
dented heights" during the
eight years of his administra
tion. Rep. Daniel J. Flood ID
Pa.) said that recent evidence
showed that the national posi
tion at home and abroad is
"far worse" than even the
gloomiest prophets had fore
cast. "None are so blind as
those who will not see," he
said.
Chairman J. William F;il
bright, (D-Ark.) of the Senate
Foreign Relations committee,
said "the incoming adminis
tration is confronted by as
difficult a set of circum
stances as any administration
since the War Between the
States."
The private remarks of
many Democrats were even
more critical than those they
had for the record.
"The poor old guy is leav
ing office in a few days," said
one House member with lib
eral leanings "So 1 don't want
to be too hard on him."
Another Democrat private
ly pictured the President's ap
praisal as "more of the same
baloney he's been feeding us

But House GOP Leader
Charles A. Halleck (Ind.) said
the message "shows that we
can carry forward the tremen
dous accomplishments he has
made if we simply use good
sense and balance in what we
do during the years ahead."
Senate GOP Leader Ever
ett M. Dirksen (111.) said the
message "is at once gracious
and cooperative in tone and is
indeed an excellent and real
istic summary of the achieve
ments of the administration."
He said, "It is also a candid
document because it sets
forth not only the achieve
ments but the existing prob
lems in the field of agricul
ture and foreign relations.
All in all, it is an impressive
state paper."
Chairman Overton Brooks
(D-La.) of the House Space
committee look sharp issue
with the President's conten
tion that U.S. space develop
ments make this country
"preeminent" in the field.
But Rep. Charles G. Fulton
(R-Pa.) endorsed the Presi
dent's message and said he
has no doubt America now
has a commanding lead over
Russia, both in military and
civilian space development.
The President's report on
his world travels, and his con
tention that success of his and
other top-level visits abroad
prompted Russia to wreck the
summit conference, drew
some raised eyebrows.
"It is so far fetched that I'm
wordless," said Rep. Chet
Holifield (D-Calif.) chairman
of the Senate-House commit
tee on Atomic Energy. "The
tone of the message is in my
opinion an extravagant mis
statement of the actual con
dition of our international re
lations. They have deteriorat
ed throughout the world."

i.one nanqe Request near
Freeway Interchanges Deferred
The Medford city planning
commission, anxious to estab
lish some sort of policy for
the regulation of land develop
ment around freeway inter
changes, last night voted to
defer three requests for
changes of zone near the in
terchanges. All three requests will
again be brought before the
commission in May. The com
mission felt it would take at
least that much time to com
plete traffic pattern sudics
around he proposed inter
changes - to be located at
Barnett rd. and Crater Lake
ave.
One of the requests is for a
change of zone from single
family to limited commercial
for property located on Bar
nett rd. Mrs. Anne Davis, who
is making the request, told
the commission last night that
a 20-unit motel is planned
on the site.
The second request was to
change a zone from single
family to limited commercial
Zrr ; -
Here's a man who's learning the story of the 1961
Cadillac in the best of all possible ways.
He has taken an hour out-put himself in the
driver's seat-and he's letting the cat tell the story
in its own inimitable way.
And what's the report?
Well, that new Cadillac is making the most elo
quent statement on quality and goodness in all
motordom-the tribute of Bilencel
Even on the by-lanes, it is virtually impossible to
detect the sounds of a Cadillac in motion.
And implicit in that ever-present silence is a story
well worth the retelling.
It speaks, first of all, of magnificent craftsmanship
... of care so intense that it has eliminated vibra
tion as a necessary accompaniment to motoring.
VISIT YOUR LOCAL AVTITO
It lostifips to extraordinary soundness of engineer-
ing-with a precision in performance that keeps even
that great new Cadillac engine down to a hushed
whisper even at throughway speeds.
And it tells of truly remarkable styling . . . with
a sculptured grace of shape and form that tames
the rushing wind to a soft lullaby.
Of course, there are some things which a new
Cadillac-with becoming modesty-won't tell about
itself. There's its wonderful dependability, for in
stance, and its unrivaled resale value.
But your dealer will be happy to round out the
story after your demonstration drive and to explain
how easily the car could be yours.
Shouldn't you lend an ear to a Cadillac -and

on property near Bear creek
adjacent to Crater Lake high
way. Medford Attorney Bill
Deatheridge, speaking for the
property owner, said a service
station is proposed for this
property.
Third Request
The third request was to
change a zone from single
family to limited commercial
for property on the southeast
side of Crater Lake highway
south of the television station
property. A plumbing shop is
proposed for this property.
In other business, the com
mission recommended denial
of a request for a change of
zone from commercial to light
industrial for property locat
ed on Barnett rd., just east
of the freeway right of way.
Jim Bayliss, operator of the
Siskiyou Veterinary hospital,
told the commission that the
hospital is now in the middle
of the freeway right of way,
and he will have to vacate his
property by March. He want
ed to build a new hospital on
the Barnett rd. site.
In recommending denial of
the request, the commission
pointed out that the proposed
hospital site is in an area
designed for future city park
purposes. It is indicated as a
park site on a generalized
land-use plan.
Request Pending a Year
Commission Member Elwood
Hedberg Jr., noting that Bay
liss' request had been before
the commission for more than
a year, said It was unioriun
ate" that the commission had
not been able to decide on the
request sooner. But because It
proposed park site, he
said, "I feel it would be very
poor planning on our part if
we recommended to the coun
cil to zone the property light
industrial."
Newlv - elected Commission
Chairman Jack Edson said he
was also sorry that the matter
took so long, and added that
although the plans for a hos
pital are "no worse" than any
other type of occupancy, "it
would have made planning in
and around it very difficult."
The commission called for
a public hearing on a request
from Austin King for a
variance to a zoning ordinance
to erect an equipment storage
shed at 1200 Crater Lake ave.
The hearing is scheduled for
the commissions February
meeting.
The commission recom
mended that a half-block long
alley located between Fran
quette st. and Riverside ave.,
west of Eads si., be vacated
by the city, subject to two
conditions. One, is that the
person making the request
provide for an casement for
California Oregon Power com
pany lines; and two, that the
person reimburse the city for
past street improvements ad
jacent to the alley.
A special meeting was
called for Jan. 2(1, to hear a
request from Mr. and Mrs.
Clarence Miller who want to
establish a kindergarten at
the Congregational church,
300 Oakwood dr. The matter
had originally been scheduled
to come before the commission
in February, but Mrs. Miller
told the commission last night
that she would need an an
swer before then, if they were
to operate a kindergarten this
spring.
A request to annex to the
city some properly located
east of the city and south of
Hillcrest rd., was deferred by
the council for further study.
It was pointed out by City
Manager Robert A. Duff, that
city vehicles would have lo
cross county roads to reach
the properly if It were to be
annexed.
The property contains the
Bel Aire Heights subdivision.
It was noted that this area is

as a suspect in the slaying
in a parsonage of the wife
of a clergyman who adopted

proposed for subdivision.
The commission recom
mended approval of a request
for a variance to a sign ordi
nance to erect an extra-large
sign during construction of
the Montcrest Convalescent
hospital on property located
near the corner of Barnett
and Murphy rds. It was noted
that the sign will denote what
is being constructed and will
be taken down when the
building Is completed.
