PAGE FWO The Whirligig What A Spot For Insurance Man To Make His Pitch A man driving down Avenue the other day saw smoke pouring out of a garage. He tried to rouse someone at the house without success. Then he ran to the home of" the fire department. While he stood at the door, he noticed a woman enter the garage with a bucket of water.

Where is the man with enough money to start raising broilers on a mass production basis in this area? The idea looks real rich on paper. Recent reports arc that about 90 per cent of the chickens sold at come from South. And where do the southerners get their feed? Right out of the Midwest. So what's to prevent some- b6dy from starting a broiler business here and saving all the freight charges on the feed and the birds?

Eisenhower also scheduled a Washington news conference for Tuesday afternoon, when political questions were certain to be asked and likely to be answered.

"Of course this gentleman CTaJ- bott) i only one of the cases of official misconduct among the crusaders," Stevenson continued. "And even more serious than the confusion of public office with private business has been the effort to despoil our great natural resources for private profit." In Columbus, Ohio, Saturday, Stevenson also called for stabili- i zation of farm income "at full parity" and said Democrats insist that something can be done to give small businessmen a "reasonable chance of surviving in the world of giants." Misrepresentation In me wake of the Columbus speech. Sen. Aiken (R-Vt) accused Slevpnsnn of--following 3 1 of misrepresentation on farm is-! that is "caving in around I him." Aiken said Stevenson "finallv has admitted that Democrat farm policies created surpluses that are difficult to get rid of" and "has been deluded into believing low income families can eat it all- regardless of the fact that many commodities, like cotton, are not edible." Stevenson had wider distribution of farm surpluses through a farm stamp program for the needy, an expanded school milk and lunch program and a world food bank.

Aiken said "there already is a very effective Republican program for disposing of these surplus commodities free of charge to low income families. No red tape is involved. No food stamps are required." $700 Theft From Club At Shenandoah Special to The Nonpareil SHENANDOAH Burglars surfacing wjth Class A crushed broke into the American Legion stone or Class gravel in Harri- Club here Dearly Sunday and made son County: 3.934 miles of chem-joff with 5700. ically treated surfacing material i Entry was gained by breaking apartment of Emil Roc- manager.
