MCGILL, George; EISENHOWER, Dwight D. (Dwight David), 1890-1969; POLITICAL candidates; AGRICULTURE; POLITICAL campaigns

The article focuses on George McGill's election campaign against U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower. In his campaign, McGill attacked the Eisenhower Administration's farm policy of flexible price supports in which the flexibility is all downward. He supported electric power policies which, by a judicious mixture of public and private enterprise, had brought more electricity to more people, and at cheaper rates, than ever before. He supported electrification of American agriculture and improved rural phone service.
