There is little bask of comparison between Roosevelt and Landon as they belong to different categories. In experience, understanding and achievements, Roosevelt ranks as the foremost statesman of the tim<‘; whereas Landon has no impressive attainment to his credit except the negative fact that he balanced the budget in Kansas, which by stale law lie was required to do under pen ally of impeachment. Wiliam Hard is Governor Landon’s chief spokesman and self-appointed apologist, And yet after numer ous broadcasts he has failed to reveal in him any qualities above tin* level of respective mediocrity. Roosevelt's New Deal is the only constructive proposal yet put forth to solve tin problems involved and growing out of the depression. Landon has not a creative mind, he constructs nothing. He accepts the fundamental principals of Roosvelt’s New Deal and contents himself with criticism of its imperfec tions and faults of' administration. Roosevelt believes in the for gotten man ol whom the Negro is chief. Landon stresses chiefly the economic royalist and believes that the common man, like the ox which pulls t lit' plow, should be satisfied with the proven" der which the lucky rugged individual provides for him. Any American, white or colored being limited to a choice between two candidates of such glaring disparity of powers, would naturally be expected to choose the abler against the feebler one , Governor Uandon is 49 years of ago and yet if lie has any favorble attitude toward the Negro he has preserved it as a pro found secret up to lh,> time o fhis candidacy fo rpresident. Up to low his friendship for the Negro might lie compared to the chapter on oranges in Alaska—there are no oranges in Alaska. Indeed, if we are to believe the president of the docal N.A.A.C.P. of Govrnor Landon’s home town, he must be regarded as un friendly to the hopes and aspirations of the colored race. No man over fifty i sapt to take on new endearmeents with much ardor or depth of affection. The Governor’s campaign utter ances on this question will of course be taken with the custom ary political grain of salt. Gn the other hand, President Roosevelt’s friendly feeling and generous treatment of the Ngro is known and acknowled ged by all men. He has placed on the relief roll perhaps one* third of the Negro race. Selection has been made according to need and not according to the race. The administration has ex pressly forbidden and condemned race discrimination in such assignments as far as these matters can be controlled by gov ernment authority. No one will deny that discrimination does exist in some form, such a* will occur under any administration so long as race prejudice is so deeply* engrained in the frame work of pople. But President Roosevelt seeks to reduce this dis crimination to a minimum. President Roosevelt has appointed or has had assigned more Negroes to high places under the government than occurred un der Taft, Harding, Coolidge and Hoover, lvis four Republican predecessors since Theodore Roosevelt. Mrs. Roosevelt, the president’s helpmeet and companion, is deeply and vitally concerned with questions of social justice and civic righteousness. She does not disdain to include the Ne gro in this ennobling circle. Her sympathy for and her interest in the welfare of the race is no less manifest than that of her distinguished husband. Mrs. Rooevelt's bold and courageous stand for the betterment, and fair treatment of Negroes will and should attract many Negro voters, especilly among the women who constitute fully a half of the voting strength of the race. Roosevelt’s attitude towards and friendship for the Negro is expressed in deeds rather than words, while Landon's is ex*’ pressed in neither deeds or words.
