DOINGS OF THE DEMOCRATS
BY
STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE’S
PUBLICITY DEPT.
Lincoln Hotel, Lincoln, Nebraska
R. L. Cochran, Democratic candidate
for Governor, continues his campaign
for the chief ex^cutiveship of the
state with the same vigor he has
shown all through his public life.
fWhere ever he appears hundreds of
new friends rush to nim as their ideal
of the man they want to administer
their executive affairs an Governor
and from State headquarters comes
word that the “Cochran for Govern
or” memberships have swanped the
staff of cl'-rks in -charge of their
andling.
Out over the rtate Mr. Cochran has
been making a great effort to “smoke
out”' his opponent, Mr- Griswold
Lots of time has been spent by the op
f -’.ant in an effort ta attack Mr.
Cochran’s career as "date engineer, and
'in that capacity directly responsible
for the wonderful' paid-for highway
system that covers Nebraska today
While ht' opponent continues his
hammering at what he thinks is a
flaw or tv»o, it has been directly de
clared by Mr. Cochran that it was this
same man, Griswold, now the repub
lican candidate for Governor, who, as
• .enator, or representative several
times gave Mr- Cochran a clear bill
of health so far as his administra
tion and personal work was concern
ed- These came through reports to
legislatures of which Griswold was a
member, and in some instances chair
man of the committeeo that highly
commended the work of 'Mr. Cochran
as state engineer
1 he fight centered Mst week arouqd
the west part of the state and gradu
ally Mr- Cochran is nearing the cen
tral and eastern section;'- with the
plan in mind, that he will keep bat
tling right on through until the day
of election, November 6.
Editorially from all sections of the
1 state and in papers, Republican, De
mocratic and independent have ap
peared criticism of Mr. Gri-.lwold’s at
t- ck on the Cochran record. The trend
of these comments is Mr. Cochran
good enough to be commented by Mr
: Griswold 3s a legislator, but n*w
that they are rivals in a political cam
paign, there is fault to find
Without an idle moment of his
working day and night, Edward R.
i Burke, termed by his friends, “Burke
the Builder” continues his march back
and forth acros.1 Nebraska n his cam
| paign for U. S- Senator
Addressing a meetng on an aver
age of 8 times daily, usually includ
ing a big rally at some larer center
each evening, Mr. Burke still finds
time to make his ringing radio ad
' dresses that have brought much favor
able comment from his supporters anil
tlui^Q who would appear neutral in
politics.
'The joint debates, ten 0 f which
were scheduled, between Mr- Burke
upholding staunchly the administra
tion and the New Deal, and his op
ponent Robert Simmons, Republican,
who attempts to tear down the admi
nistration program, are creating much
interest where ever held. Mr. Burke
gains favorably before each of the
audiences and his appearances on the
platform on each occasion serves as
a cause for long, loud applause.
As was the case in the primary cam
paign, Mr. Burke continues to stand
up ur^der the strain of the campaign
refused to back another, Bob Sifn
too busy after a long talk to visit
with his hosts of friends who seek
him out that they may shake his
hand and offer a wrord of encourageme
ment.
Much favorable comment on Mr
Burke’s defense of the New Deal
pours into State Headquarters after
each of the debates. One man took
occasion to remark in a letter that he
traveled 75 miles especially to hear a
constructive argument on the issues
at stake and was more than ratified
by the remarkable presentation made
by Mr- Burke. He added that he was
a Republican, but a supporter of
Burke after he heard the debate.
Dwight Griswold, Republican can
didate for Governor, in press state
ments last week admitted that he had
made som,e “honest errors” during
his career in the legislature but call
ed attention in the same statement to
the vote he recieved in his home d:s
rict as a candidate for state senator
in 1924, 1926 and 1928- Commenting
on this press story, Robert Flory, sec
retary of the Democratic State Com
mittee, called attention to the fact
that much of Mr. Griswold’s reaction
ary legislative record occurred in the
1928 sdasion and none of it was real
ly made pubic until he became a can
didate for governor in 1932 and in
view of Mr- Griswold’s reference to
the vote given him in his home dis
trict in earlier years it is interesting
to note the vote which he received in
thaie same counties as a candidate
for governor in 1932, after his record
was exposed
Flory called attention to a tabula
tion taken from the official vote ab
stract of 1932, which reported the
following:
Bryan Griswold
Box Butte 2746 1721
Cherry 2447 2160
Dawes l 2078 2432
Sheridan 2662 2093
Sioux 873 808
10806 9214
“It is easy to see that Mr- Griswold
failed to carry his home county and
carried but one county in his home
senatorial district and that bya
small margin,” Mr- Flory said.
“The people apparently had had
time to consider and digest Mr. Gris
wold’s record,” Flory added
Elimination of the “party circle”
'bv the legislature, an act upheld re
cently by the state supreme court in
a test case brings about a situation
new to many Nebraska voters.
These who formerly desired to
vote the straight ticket did so by mark
ing a cross in the party circle. Un
ler the new order, it now is necessary
to vote for qach Individual candS
date.
Democratic State Headquarters has'
beer, conducting a campaign of edu-i
elation in connection with the new or
der of votng. <~t te advising voters
who desire to vote for Democratic
party men and women to “mark a
ci-oss in the top square of each group
of candidates..
This slogan, adopted in the inter
est!* of supporting the New Deal has
been seized by political workers for
the party througout the state, and is
finding much favor. The Democratic
candidates on the ballot occupy the
top position in each set of offices to
be voted upon.
“Mark a Cross in the top square of
each group of candidate assures a
vote for men pledged to support F
D. Roosevelt in his fight for the peo

Secretary of State Harry Swanson’s
office at the srtate capitol is trying
to solve the mystery of what became
of Gov. "Weaver’s vote messages dur;
ing the 1929 season of the state legis
lature. Gov. Weaver, according to
bis own files, vetoed 25 measures, but
alT veto message* but 10 are missing.
The 15 mising ones are bills that
Dwight ‘ ' Griwold, republican candi
date for governor, voted for and
among them is the one introduced by
Giiswold that Would have virtually
killed the primary law and sent nomi
nation procedure back to the conven
ton rtystenv Griswold was in the sen
ate and voted to override the veto
But the house sustained it 66 to 31
and tire primary law was saved.
In checking over Griswold’s legisla
tive record, I. W- Jacoby former
legislator from' Lancaster county,
found only 10 veto messages bound
and no evidence to support that the
.others had ever been placed in the
files- r l-ank Marsh, present republi
can candiate for Secretary of State,
was tagen in that office- Jacoby wroti
Weaver, who came to Lincoln, with
qopie of hi f veto messages but the
two were still unable to find trace of
the missing 15
Tho binding on the cover of the
veto melfages is much thinner than
the one used for leslf vetoes by other
governors than the 24 of Weavers
The binding also shows frhat no sheets
have been torn out. Former Secre
tary of State Marsh ha< not been able
to be leached for a statement,
: Itineraries routing many nationally
known speakers who will be i n Ne
braska at different timdf, during the
remaining days of the campaign are
keeping the speaker^ bureau at State
Democratic Headquarters busy
Representative Moran of Maine was
in Nebraska last week and made se
veral addred.es. Han'y Flehearty, a
prominent Omaha attorney, now con
nected with the Federal Government
at Washington is being scheduled for
several addre^es.
Senator W- E- Burkley of Kentuc
ky, probably one of the be. t known
orators in the country, and the man
who had much to do with the nomi
nation of Mr- Roosevelt at Chicago in
1932 is scheduled for several address
*
es.
Frank Murphy, regional director of
the PWA, with headquarters at Min
neapolis. will make one address at
Omaha, the date not yet decided
Congressman Patterson of Tennes
see will speak at Seward at a date
not yet announced
A Republican candidate this week
mons, in hla charge that the New
Deal was fundamentally wrong- £n
an address in the western part of the
state, A- N. Mathers, candidate for
the U- S- House of Representatives
stated that he would not condemn all
parts of the New Deal merely because!
it was of democratic origin- He stat-1
cd, according to a press dispatch,
that parts of it need to be altered but
that many others were a good thing
for the country.
Those who have followed the Burke
Simmons debate recall that Simmons
trUq been vitriolic in his attacks on
the New Deal while Congressman Ed
Burke, democratic candidate for U- S
Senator, has been equally as strong in
his contention that the New Deal
should bo retained in itto major ob
jectives. Matheiiq is seeking the same
seat Simmons lost in 1930

FUTURE OF
NEBRASKA'S LIVESTOCK
IN VOTERS HANDS
If funds are made available through
the adopton of the proposed parimu
i tuel horse racing amendment to be
j voted on in November, the open breed
| clatases live stock competition will
I again be a feature of the annual Ak
[ Sar-Ben live stock and horse show,
|W. H. Schellberg, Precedent, announc
ed this week
“We were compelled through lack
of finances,” Schellberg said, “to limit
our annual show last year to 4-H Club
and car lot competition and the same
holds true again this |vear- It was
found imfifesible to raise sufficient
funds to continue the competition in
the open breed classes whch meant
so much to all fanners and cattle
racers.
“However, if the racing amendment
is approved bv the people the neces
sary money will be available to revive
this important feature of the annual
show with the result that additional
thousands of dollars in prizes will be
diptrbuted to winner^ in this classifi
cation.”
Schellberg/said that reports he had
received from many sections of the
state indicated that farmers and stock
raisers are particularly interested in
the return of legalized racing because
of the impetus it would give to their
business along with horse-breeding.
The fact that Ak-Sar-Ben proposes
to share its receipts with all of the
county fair in the state shows that
direct aid would go to every section,
Schellberg said. I
ANOTHER DAY
BY SCOTT . ;
The other morning when I got up
2 stubbed: ml/ toe- While I'was dress
ing my collar button rolled accross
the floor nnd into the register I was
late getting started for wirk and I
reached the street car line just in
time to see my car ^bde past me. All
day long everythink went wrong- Per
haps the fact that it was raining and
the day was so dark and dreary had
something to do with it. When I
reached home at night I was exhaust
ed mentally and physically. Life
looked about as drab and colorless as
the clouds that scuttled across the
f,ky- I felt completely beaten. When
I fell asleep I dreaded the dawn of
another day.
But when 2 awoke it was to the
singing of the birds. Sunlight was
flooding my room- The air was clear
and bracing. I rolled out of bed,
whisteled while I drei sed, ate my
breakfast1 in a leisurely fashion and
while I was waiting for the street car
one of my friends case along in his
auto, picked me up and took me to
work The dull monotony of the day
before was forgotten. My work was
a real pleasure and when the day was
over 2 was looking forward eagerly
to the dawn of another tommorrow
equally as satisfying
jWe all have them—our off days-—
“when everything goes dead wrong”
But I wonder if they don’t help to
emphasize the ones that follow when
tse sun shindi and life is filled with
intense interest. After all wouldn’t
things become sort of monotonous if
t weren’t for these breaks* that help
us to appreciate the more the bright
days that fill “the even tenor of our
lives: Liife is like an exquisite
painting. We need the shadows to
bring out the high lighab
At timeU we are weary and every
thing seems so futile. We have to
admit defeat and yet if we keep our
hand steadily on the wheel we will
round the curve that will bring us
cut on a new road that ultimately
will lead to success. No matter how
life may --.erve us there*is always one
sure refuge to which we may turn and
that is the realization that “the best
things in life are free.” No matter
how lonely or bow poor we may Be,
we hold within ourselves so near at
hand.
We have only to live one day at a
time- It is the looking ahead that
cr.usdl so many to despair. So often
we underrate the happiness of the
moment for fear ocf the future. All
of this is a# unnecessary for one of
the most merciful things about our
existence & that everything changes.
The thing about which we worry and
fret today may be entirely changed
by a stroke of fate on the morrow.
And no matter what affiliction may
overtake us we will find much in our
altered condition that will bring sa-t
isfaction and contentment.
There is no much of beauty in the
every day things of life about us; the
changing color of the trees* the flight
of the birds as they wing their way
southward for the winter, the lovli
ness of the latars at night- They are
all ours.
When the days are dark and de
pressing ti*y to remember that there’s
another day ahead—another day so
satisfying that it will cause us to for
get the trials that now confront us.

N.A.A.C.P. Says Defeat
Pro- Parker Senators
NF!W YORK—'Any idea that the
NAACP has given up the fight agan*t
the senators who in May, 1930, voted
for the confirmation to the United
States supreme court of Judge John
J- Parker was dispelled this week by
the appearance of an editorial in the
November ijsue of “The Crii^s,” just
out
The editorial is a reprint of one
carried in July, 1930 issue of the mama
zine and is preceded fc|y this editor’s
note:
“We are reprinting below a sec
tion of the editorial entitled“The
Fight," from The Crisis.’ of July,
1930, because it states precisely
the attitude of the N. A. A. C
P in the election of1934 toward
those senators who in May, 1930,
voted for the confirmation of John
J- Parker and aganst the welfare
and citizenship of every Negro in
the United States
The editorial Isays in part:
It was a fine fight, but we
all know that it was only a begin
ning. By itself and left to be for
gotten it will amount to little
It must be followed up by the un
flinching determination of Negroes
to defeat the senators who defied
their vote and supported Parker.
Nothing will convince the
United States that our gesture was
not mere braggadocio and bluff.
The following senators voted for
Parker and are running for reelection
on November 6: Hamilton F. Kean,
New Jersey; Fredrick C- Walcott, Con
necticutt; David A. Reed, Pennsylvania
Henry D. Hatfield, West Virginia;
Smeon D Foias, Ohio; and Ro>>coe C
Patterson, Missouri.
In other elections since the vote in
1930, the NAACP has helped to defeat
the. following men who voted for
Parker- ex senators McCullough of
Ohio. Allen of Kansas, Shortridge of
California, Watson of Indiana, and
Hurd of New Jersey.

slur cast upon the thousand! i of new
unionists who have joned the Amer
ican Federation of Labor during the
past two years by D. J. Tobin, presi
dent of the rnternational Teamsters
during the court, e of a hot debate on
| the brewery worker-teamsters contro
versy has aroused more resentment
I than any occurence in this year’s ses
sion and is regarded by many of the
old timers •'« a serious “boner.”
At the very beginning of the eighth
day. session, President Green took a
slap at his eolleagueTa conduct of the
day before when the course of his
opening remark* he spoke of “the
splendid men and women who have
come into our movement in the past
year ” “It is our duty,” he continued,
to h ing into the A- F- of I* every
man and woman who wrks for wages
in America. There is room for every
one in our movement.” Green parti
cularly commended the work of the
Workers Education Bureau and urged
tho delegates to rally to its support
The mots* fierry response to Tobin’s
remarks, however, came from Francis
J. Goman, aggressive vice president
of tho textile workers union, tho mem
bership of which Has grown from
15,000 to 300,000 during the past year.
At the morning .session, Oct 10. Gor
