SECTION B PAGES 1 to 8 MEDFORD. ifc&TRlBUNS THURSDAY, JUNE 7, 1962 Congressman Denies Wrong In Esfes Affair Washington - IUPD - The stocky, dark haired man raised his right hand and said: "H. Carl Anderson never did anything wrong in connection with the Estes affair. My con science is clear, so help me Cod." With that, the Minnesota Republican congressman left the well of the House Wednes-! day amid applause from about j 200 of his colleagues. A number of congressmen, heeding his plea during an emotional 38 -minute speech to "come say hello, come shake my hand," did just that. An Hour for Defense Anderson, 65, a veteran of 23 years in Congress, took the House floor under a "question of personal privilege," which takes precedence over all busi ness except a motion to ad journ. The rarely used proce dure allows a member one hour to defend himself against attacks on his rights, reputa tion and conduct. The Minnesotan said he had been smeared by columnist Drew Pearson and, since he revealed a business transac-. tion which indicted Texas farm tycoon Billie Sol Estes, shunned by some of his col leagues including Republican leaders. More Epithets He said Pearson lied about him in an article about the Estes case and a 1957 contro versy over a veterans bill. He called the columnist a "pole cat," a "skunk" and a "liar," and then dipped into an 18 page compilation of attacks on Pearson by others to extract more epithets. Anderson said Pearson's ar ticle falsely implied that he opposed a veterans bill in or der to protect a monetary in terest in his brother's estate. Waving a sheaf of papers and speaking in a voice that tnmetimac annoareet noar breaking, Anderson called for expulsion of Pearson from the Lodge-Pole Pine Use Reviewed ' Ashland - A use for lodge pole pine, normally a virtually unused type of wood, has been developed in the Ashland area by two 'former loggers. Ray and Collins Hassell, brothers, told members of the Ashland Chamber of Com merce this week about their new business venture, Ranch Rounds, Inc. They are using lodge-pole pine to make poles for fencing. The two originally went Into business in 1955 to manu facture stakes for logging trucks. The business succeed ed hut it. was found to be seasonal, and the brothers be gan to look around for some thing to keep their employees busy during the fall and early winter. About a year ago they came up with the idea of making fence poles out of lodge-pole pine trees found in the vi cinity of Union Creek. They put up a plant and dry kiln on Dead Indian rd., and start ing within the next week or two they will start offering fencing for sale. Both two and three rail fences will be available, they told chamber members, and In 8 or 10-foot lengths. The poles are cut by a spec ial machine to a standard size, then are dried in the kiln. Drying reduces the weight of the poles, making them less expensive to ship.
