MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON MONDAY. AUGUST 27, 1962 Great Debate Between Brown, Nixon Under Way in California SFlto A 3 By JAMES C. ANDERSON United Press International Sacramento -rUPD The great debate between Gov. Ed mund G. Brown and Richard topher-Finch negotiations and air them than it would be to listen to Nixon and Brown debate. In any event, something Nixon is under way, but the I came unstuck in the ncgotia- lormat isn t exactly wnat tne voters had in mind. Several weeks ago after the primary election when it be came evident that Brown and Nixon would, be the Nov. 6 finalists in the gubernatorial race, the Democratic governor challenged Nixon to a state wide televised debate. Nixon, who had been chal lenging Brown all along, promptly accepted - and the voters had visions of a man-to-man confrontation between between the two men. Like duelists of old. Brown apapointed a second to repre sent him in negotiations to set up ground rules for the de bate. So did Nixon. Selections of Two The man Brown selected was Warren Christopher, a young Los Angeles attorney who was on Brown's "kitchen cabinet" In the first year of his term. Nixon selected Ro bert Finch, a long-time poli tical ally and campaign strat egist. One wit promptly suggested It would be more entertain ing to tape record the Chris- tions and the debate, if you can call it that, broke out on all fronts. Up to this writing, most of it has been at long range with Brown accusing Nixon of torpedoing the ne gotiations and Nixon making the same accusation against the governor. Temporary Breakdown The issue which caused at least a temporary breakdown in negotiations was this: -Nixon insisted he wanted a head-to-head debate with Brown in which each candi date would fire questions di rectly at the other. - Brown was adamant in his demand that the debate !iSip This Winter 43 Days , Exciting Ports Round Trip Fares From $1,125.00 SEE GEORGE LEWIS Rogue Travel Service 111 E. 8th St. 772-6779 Ask About Our New "Ticket by Mail" Service follow the format of the I960 Kennedy -Nixon exchanges with a panel of newsmen ask ing the questions. Some innocent bystanders, not familiar with political in fighting, might ask "what dif ference does it make?" Of Paramount Importance To the men surrounding the two candidates, they re gard the issue as of para mount importance. Some of Brown's people say privately they fear if there is a direct exchange of ques tions between the two men, Nixon will attempt to shift the emphasis from state issues to national and global prob lems. Since Nixon has had considerable experience in that field and Brown has had none, the governor's strate gists fear Brown would be at a disadvantage discuss- 8 1 - ing Laos, South Viet Nam or Khrushchev. Nixon's staff pooh-poohs the idea that the former vice president would adopt such a course. They say Nixon is willing and eager to wage the fight purely on state issues and problems. May Waste Time Some of Nixon's advisers feel a panel of newsmen would only waste precious tel evision time. They say, and perhaps rightly so, that some political writers once the red light goes on on the cameras become actors whose ques tions become virtual orations. There have been other stumbling blocks in the nego tiations, too. The Brown camp original ly felt one debate would be or "position papers. enough. They pointed to the I were not permitted fact that there was a general slackening of viewer interest after the first Kennedy Nixon debate in 1960. Nixon, on the other hand, wants several debates, at least two and he would prefer four. Partial Compromise On this point, there has been a partial compromise. Before negotiations were suspended, it was understood that Brown's people had agreed to two debates. Still another point of dif ference in negotiations was over the question of whether the candidates could usp notes Notes in the Nixon-Kennedy debate in 1960. It is believed that if the two men finally do face each other before the cameras, they will be able to use notes if they want to. If the television debate col lapses, voters still will get a chance to see the two men sharing the same platform. Both Nixon and Brown have accepted an invitation to ap pear before the national UPI Editors and Publishers con ference in San Francisco on Oct. 1. The formal of Ibis appear ance still is to be decided. ate Saturday voted almost S5 billion to finance the nation's farm programs for another year and urged that new ways be found to combat the prob lem of enormous surpluses. The measure goes back to the House which approved a ! different version. If it accepts Senate changes, the hill will j be sent to the White House. ' Chairman Richard B. Rus- sell of the Senate appropria tions subcommittee of agri-1 culture, suggested that a fast er - paced program of re-: search into new uses for farm products was the best solution j to the surplus problem. The full appropriations I committee added $25 million j to the agriculture depart ment's previous annual spend ing of S18 million for "utili zation research." The Senate went along.

"Wrong is instinctive and man must be taught what is right," Graham said. A spokesman for Graham said more than 500 persons in a crowd estimated at 35,000 accepted the evangelist's in vitation to accept Christ. Graham spoke from a plat form on a runway at Redstone Arsenal where advance mod els of the Saturn moon rocket will be tested. Nearby was the test stand of the pioneer Red stone missile created by Dr. Wehrner von Braun. Characteristic of Period Graham was sponsored here by the Army Missile Com mand and the Huntsville Ministerial association. "The great research and work being done at Redstone Arsenal is characteristic of the period in which we live -a time of tremendous empha sis on scientific achievement throughout the world," Graham said. "Science and religion are partners. God was the creator and science the discoverer." Graham said if it were not for evil and jealousy in the world, the defense work at Redstone would be unneces sary, the huge sums of money being used for this purpose, he said, could then be used for the "peaceful explora tion of space and the further mcnl of God's word."
