for two months and the corn
crop was about half normal
yield.
Huge Crowd at Contest
He then drove through parched
fields Is miles to Columbus,
where he preceded Senator Estes
Kefauver of Tennessee by two
hours, in addressing a crowd es-
timated at between 10000 and
10000 at the National Mechan-
ical Corn Picking Contest. It
was described as the largest
gathering ever to hear a political
address in Nebraska.
Most of the farmers kept
hands in pockets as Mr.. Nixon
told them the Eisenhower farm
program justified hopes that
they would share in the general
national prosperity.
/ Reporting that Gov. Victor
Anderson informed him 80 per
cent of Nebraska corn land was
hard hit by drought, Mr.. Nixon
said he would call Washington
and recommend that the State
be included on Mr.. Eisenhower's
post-election tour of drought
areas.
Lashes Out at Truman
He struck out at former Presi-
dent Humans criticism of the
administrators handling of the
farm program, saying:
This administration has not
been perfect. we've made mis-
takes. But I tell you 1 resent
deeply when the former Presi-
dent says President Eisenhower
knows what should be done for
the farmers. but doesn't want to
do it. If Harry Truman wants
to take the low road. let him
take it,"
Mr.. Nixon spoke under condi-
tons less than favorable and
that may explain some Of the
seeming apathy of his audience.
A 25-mile-an-hour wind whipped
the dust around while he spoke.
Local officials said the drought
and unhappy farm economic
conditions undoubtedly would
cost the Republicans votes. but
they said the State. nevertheless,
would go to Mr.. Eisenhower.

The Kentucky schedule was a
