The importance of a candi- j date's political philosophy was stressed by Slate Rep. Carl Fisher, Eugene, candidate for election to congress from the Fourth district, when he spoke here yesterday noon at meeting of the Jackson County unit, Oregon Federa tion of Women's Republican clubs. Mr. Fisher said that his po litical philosophy differs widely from that of his De mocratic opponent, Robert Duncan, Medford. Mr. Fisher described him self as a "free enterprise keep government out of business kind of man." Poiniing out that a man's voting record is the best test of his political philosophy, he declared that the "score card" issued by the stale's labor leaders on the voting records of members of the 1959 Ore gon legislature proved how different is his philosophy from that of Mr. Duncan. The score card listed Repre sentative Duncan as having voted "right" 26 times and "wrong" 2 limes, by the labor leaders' standards, he said, while Representative Fisher had voted "right" only 8 times and "wrong" 20 times. By the labor score sheet, only nine representatives had more right votes than Representa tive Duncan, the speaker not ed. The score card of Rep. Ed Whelan, who is executive sec retary of the Portland Labor council, was identical with that of Representative Dun can, the speaker added. Mr. Fisher stressed that he was not "attacking" anyone and made an effort to distin guish between labor "bosses" and men and women who are laboring people. "I have faith in the good judgment of men and women in labor," he add ed. ' , Opposes Plan The candidate opened his talk by saying that he is "un alterably opposed to the ad ministration's plan lo with hold a flat 20 per cent on divi dend and interest income." He declared that puch a law would allow the federal gov ernment to literally confiscate millions of dollars to which it has no right. Mr. Fisher said he sympa thized wilh the government's wish to collect the estimated $000 in taxes on dividend and interest incomes which is not nmv being paid, but added that he felt the proposed plan was not the best way to do this-. He suggested thai the Inter nal Revenue service Institute an educational program to leach taxpayers thai they must report all such income, and also said a stildy should be made of Ihe feasibility of requiring all organizations which pay interest or divi dend income to file a report form with the IRS listing such payments. "Thorp who would intentionally dodge Ihe tax could be brought into line if Ihey knew the IRS had a list ing of their dividen and in terest income," Mr. Fisher de clared. Reports The candidate reported on Ihe recent meeting of the Re publican National committee in Seattle, and said that a talk by Maurice Slans. director of the federal budget under for mer President Eisenhower, had been especially impress ive. He said Mr Stans had pointed out the danger of the course this country is now taking, and had stressed the size of the national debt, high taxes and high in' rest rates as being danger signals. The former budget director said that it is not true free dom when taxes are confisca tory, when the responsibility for schools is laken from Ihe community, when government competes wilh private enter prise, when wages are dicta ted and when the people la bor under a pernctual unsiir mountable burden of debt. Mr. Fisher reported. Mr. Fisher said he had been particularly Impressed with Mr. Stans' statement that the Republican party could be the means of preserving this country. The candidate said he found a note of optimism among Re publican leaders on both the state and national level but warned his listeners that the party must got to work, "right now" if the coming elections are lo be won. "We mustn't wait until after Labor day," he cautioned. The speaker was introduc ed by Mrs. Edmund Hass, a vice-president of the Jackson county unit. Mrs. E. A. Lit- trell, president, conducted the meeting and announced the appointment of Mrs. Gene Williams, first vice-president of the Jackson county unit of the Oregon federation, to the board of trustees to fill out Mrs. L i t tr e 1 1 ' s unexpired term. Mrs. Littrell was recent ly advanced to the first vice presidency of the slate federa tion. Al Dumas. Republican can didate for the state legisla ture, was introduced.
