• Th* Stone Ago Pod The following paragraph* are excerpt* from Sen. R. Vance Hartkc* brilliant deacriplten of three wellknown Republican politician*. Gov. 'High-Tax Harold' Handley, IX-Gov. Crawford Parker, and Vice-Preaident Richard Nixon given at the Wibon Day Dinner al Union City hat Saturday . •Theae three (Handley, Parker and Nixon) are three peaa in a pod. representing boaa-dominated politic* at iU worst. The pod in which they live is Stone Age Republicanism. ~ “In 19M. the discredited ruling clique of the Republican Party in Indiana ordered High Tux Harold Handley nominated for United States Senator. The whip was cracked The delegates knuckled under. Handley was nominated. Thousands of fair-minded Hoosiers, sickened by the boss rule and seeking relief from the kind ot govemment they were getting from Handley, voted the Democratic ticket. We won by a record majority. “In 1960, the same discredited ruling clique that crammed Handley down the delegates’ throats and trial to cram him down the throats of the voters will lie in operation again. They have already laid down the law. Lieutenant Governor Crawford Parker is the heir-appar-ent. Never mind his qualifications. Never mind what the voters think, what rank-and-file Republicans think. The bosses want Parker. “But I do not believe the voters want Parker. “In 1960, the bosses of the Republican Party nutionally have been joined by the billionaires. They have ordered Dick Nixon nominated. And the bosses of the Indiana Republican Party were in the forefront. Hoosier Republicans helped stab Governor Nelson Rockefeller m the back just as they stabbed Republican State Senator Russell Bontrager in the back when he dared oppose Governor Handley. - . “They will try and wrap this package deal up in a bright package. The ribbon and the wrapping will be bright—the so-called new Nixon. Perhaps they may even try and add a new Parker package bow. But they cannot hide the contents from those thinking Hoosiers who unwrap the package and find a dingy box and three peas in P°"For three years now Hoosiers — Republicans and Democrats—have had paper highways. With the Republican bosses in control at Indianapolis and Republican w bosses in control at Washington, the Hoosier road program has been stalled without ever really starting. We have had about five miles of new Interstate Highways in over 2 1 /_> years. “Now, Hoosiers who want more of the same can have it by buying the bosses’ package of Parker and Nixon. “The question is ‘How do the American people want these problems dealt with?’ I cannot believe they want them in the hands of men who owe everything to a few. I cannot believe they want these problems of life and death in the hands of a man whose moods change as the winds and the weather. “Thinking Americans, including thinking Hoosiers, are not inclined to trust these matters to a man who masquerades one day as a fearless Communist fighter who deems we Democrats as members oLthe Party of Treason only to turn around the next day and embrace Dictator Khrushchev. •Thinking Americans, including thinking Hoosiers, are not inclined to trust these matters to a man who one day ridicules the idea of banned H-bomb tests and the next calls for a ban. “Thinking Americans, including thinking Hoosiers,

Public Power Issue Back In Public Eye

MEMPHIS. Tenn. <UPD —The Khort «f owe of tor htettert longest and fnost misunderstood political issues of President Eisenhower's first term is back again in his final year in office. The issue is public versus private electrical power. It was a burning political argument during most of Eisenhower's first term under the name of ’ Dixon-Yates.” The old Dixon-Yates arguments , of 1953 and 1954 were thrust back into the news last month when the Memphis City Commsision approved a rate increase averaging 19 per cent for the city-owned power plant. The increase now is before the courts, and at least one plea has been made for Congress to re-examine the operation methods of all public power agencies. Recalls Controversy Memphis was the battleground for the Dixon-Yates argument which embroiled the Eisenhower administration in a running controversy with congressional Democrats. Many accused the President of trying to strangle the Tennessee Valley Authority, the nation's forecast public power domain created in the first year of Franklin Roosevelt’s administration. The Dixon - Yates argument started like this: „ In 1952, the TVA with President Truman’s endorsement. asked Congress for 100 million dollars to build a new steam plant at Fulton ,\Tenn., north of Memphis, to meeC-a—power shortage. Cokr gress turned it down, and President Eisenhower later killed a second request. In 1954. at Eisenhower's suggestion, the Atomic Energy Commission started negotiations with Edgar H. Dixon, president of Middle South Utilities, Jnc., and Eugene A. Yates, board chairman of the Southern Company, to build a $107,250,000 steam plant at West Memphis, Ark. Led To Filibuster Under that plan, the Dixon - Yates combine would supply 600,000 kilowatts to TVA at Memphis to "replace” power TVA was sending to the Atomic Energy Commission plant at Paducah, Ky. TVA advocates charged the Atomic Energy Commission was "fronting” a move to strangle TVA growth and give private power a foothold in the area._ The controversy raged through a Senate filibuster, into the congressional elections and into several congressional investigations. The city of Memphis, long accustomed to low-cost TVA power, finally killed the entire deal by building its own steam plant to supply Memphis with power at TVA rates and then withdrew from TVA.— —— Now the ’Memphis rates have

For the first lime in two week. Monday there were no be a Ung* or threatening telephone calls reported by non-union workers or striking members of the United Packinghouse Workers of Anwrics The peace was credited to resumption of bargaining sessions tn Chicago between the union and Wilson. Meetings were held all day and were recessed until 10:30 am. today. "As long as we keep meeting, there’s hope of getting this thing settled." said federal mediator Douglas D. Brown, presiding at the meetings The UPWA’s strike against eight Wilson plants took on a violent aspect at Albert Lea more than a month ago when riots broke out at plant gates. National Guardsmen enforced martial law for several weeks. In another development. District Judge John Cahill Monday denied a company request that he order the union to stop using the slogan "The Wilson label disgraces the Table" in a boycott of Wilson products.
