Campbell, leader in democratic poli
tics in Massachusetts, tonight de- j
manded that Massac husetts demo-'
crats refuse to attend the national
convention at Houston. Tex., unless
Senator Tom Hefiin of Alabama is;
repudiated and his remarks in the:
senate condemned by southern demo-'
crats. ;
"We Massachusetts democrat?
nave a rignc 10 Know wneiner tiei-ation engineer,
lin speaks for himself alone or him as to the
whether other democrats from the
south are waiting to see him go un
repudiated." Campbell said. "I want
to know what other democratic lead
ers and democratic senators think
about it. I demand they go on re
cord. I am not going to Houston to
listen to vicious and unprincipled at
tacks on the Catholic body of Amer
ican citizens. I do not believe that
any honest democrat will, either. I
want to know whether we Massa
chusetts democrats are to face such
insults.
"The opportunity to repudiate
Hefiin is before all the democratic
senators and members of the national
committee. The question is a far
greater one than Governor Smith's
candidacy. We in Massachusetts
can't remain in a party in which
Hefiin have any support. I want to
know the kind of people the Massa
chusetts democrats will be supposed
to associate with in Houston. I can't
shake the hand of an Alabama demo
crat who says Heflin talks for him.

Massachusetts."

city in general and would have a
plan to submit to the city council
before the next meeting, making a
number of schedules that would apply
under the increase in rates that the
I' nited States district court had made
necessary and from which the city
and the patrons of the water com

stated that the water company had

turn on their investment and the
city was trying to hold the rates
down to as low a figure as would be
possible.
