Killer Historic Year QUEBEC IP Quebec City will celebrate its 350th anniversary in July 1958 and 23 man committee has been assigned the job of planning the biggest celebration ever seen here It was in 1606 that Champlain chose Quebec as the seat of government of New France I SPECIAL PRICES ON MEAT POB YOUR PREEZER had poor insight on how the vote would go and he was wrong in his guess on how to win His telegram sent Oct 19 suggested the scare campaign: "As far as our opponents are concerned they offer again noth-ing new but a return to the radical policies that in 20 years failed to produce prosperity except in war or as a result of war "By electing more Democrats the voters are taking a grave risk that their taxes will be raised prices will skyrocket and unemployment will increase because of the stifling effect of the anti-private enterprise policies of the radical wing of the Democratic party" When Nixon sent Ms telegram he had campaigned around the country and knew that various polls were predicting a Democratic sweep But he said in his message: 'I am convinced that if we hammer on this line from now to election day we can blitz the opposition and shift thousands of votes in dose races throughout the Perhaps what Nixon said in his telegram and what he thought privately were not necessarily the same thing His office said this week that not long before the elections the vice president took a more realistic view of what lay ahead Nevertheless in his telegram he said: "As to our prospects I believe that as we enter the last two weeks of the campaign there is no question but that the tide that was running so strongly against us has taken a sharp turn in our But the tide which rolled in on election day almost drowned the Republican party Nixon urged the Republicans while conducting the scare campaign he suggested to wear a kind of Sunny Jim look "From now on in press conferences and speeches all Republican candidates and spokesmen should radiate optimism and should be on the offensive There must not be any more defensive apologetic defeatist he said Nixon used rock-'em-sock-'em tactics when he won election to the Senate in I960 and again when he and President Eisenhower won in 1952 together with their fellow Republicans who that year got control of Congress But in the three elections since then in 1954 1956 and again in 1958 all Nixon's tough campaigning convincing enough to persuade the voters Republicans should run Congress In all the elections since 1954 including 1956 when Eisenhower and Nixon won a second term the voters turned their backs on the Republicans as a party and gave control of Congress to the Democrats Perhaps now Nixon after some self-examination and examination of tiie results of three elections in a row may decide to change his tactics when he seeks the Republican presidential nomination in 1960 as he almost certainly will DALLAS Tex (AP)-A shapely brunette was beaten to the draw Thursday night by an
