In conclusion Mrs. Don ald said: “The acceptance of a defeatist philosophy foreign to American tradition has given such momentum to a left turn that the rapids are in sight. We cannot hope for a judicial check, the Su preme Court is packed; we can not hope for a check from the Senate. We can divert the current of this destructive leftist tendency only by electing a Republican House of Representatives, a con structive ALL AMERICAN party platform.” Mrs. Donald is the only candi date for National Committeewom an who has accompanied everyone of the Republican Caravan trips into the State. While some have questioned the benefits of these trips to any individual candidate, she feelB that they have been of inestimable value to the Republi can party organization.

DEWEY "l shall be glad to lead the fight,” said Thomas F-. Dewey when New York State Republican leaders asked him to be their candidate for the 1940 Republican nomination for President. “1 have confidence in the Republican Party,” he added. "It has always stood for good government and stable business. Today its responsibility is to give hope and courage to a nation which i$^ now in despair as a result of incompetent govern ment and unstable business. .... , . “I have hope and faith in the nation and in its future and in every element of its people.” DEWEY AS G. O. P. NOMINEE? The editorial below was printed in the New York Daily News, January 11,1940. The Daily News has the largest newspaper circulation in the United States—1,825,000 daily, 3,500,000 Sunday. Yesterday in this space we reported having a hunch that President Roosevelt wants a third term and is wheeling his heavy guns into place for a third term drive. We explained our reasons for that hunch at some length, most of them being drawn from what happened at various Jackson Day dinners around the country Monday evening. Today we opine that the Republican candidate for President will be Thomas E. Dewey, if the Dem ocratic candidate is Franklin D. Roosevelt. Dewey has the supreme virtue, from the practi cal politicians’ point of view, of being a terrific vote getter, at least in his own city and his own state. Dewey was elected District Attorney of New York County (Manhattan) in November, 1937. For a Republican to get elected to any important office in Manhattan is usually the neatest trick of what ever decade it happens in, because it happens very seldom. In the following year, 1938, Dewey ran for Governor against the incumbent, Herbert H. Leh man, himself a superior vote getter. Dewey came within 60,000 votes of beating Lehman,^ who previ ously had been accustomed to pluralities of 400,000, 800,000 and such. Dewey had a couple of bad breaks in the 1938 election, to boot. It rained in upstate New York that day, so that a lot of Republican farmers and their wives didn’t turn out to vote; and something decidedly phony was strongly rumored to have hap pened in connection with the vote count in Demo cratic machine-run Albany. Even so, Dewey cut Lehman’s plurality to a wisp of its former self. Dewey’s Youth; Dewey Record It will be objected to Dewey that he is too young to be President—only 37. Well, graybeard though we be, we must insist that a man of 37 is not a child. Alexander Hamilton became Secretary of the Treasury at 32; Napoleon was crowned Emperor of the French at 35; William Pitt the Younger became Prime Minister of Eng land, and a darned good one at that, at 24.Half of our voters are 37 or younger. We don’t think Dewey’s youth will cut much ice against his chances of vic tory if he runs. It will also be objected that Dewey has no na tional political record, as against the President’s long and illustrious record. As a Republican with a record, most of the Republican professional politi cians offer Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg of Mich igan. Vandenberg has a record, true; but it is a sort of half-and-half record. He has been long on the political stage, but he has never quite achieved star dom. Sometimes he has played ball with the New Deal, sometimes fought it. As we see it, Vandenberg backs the fire and colorfulness which makes voters want either to do and die for a man or cut his poli tical throat. Messrs. Dewey and Roosevelt have those posi tive qualities in full measure. If they oppose each other for the Presidency this year, we’ll see the loveliest Presidential campaign in a long time, heap ed up and running over with fiery oratory, beauti ful maneuvering and the fanciest kind of political skullduggery. If the Republicans don’t nominate Dewey, it is hard to see how they can hope to carry New York State. And if they don’t carry New York, it seems impossible for them to win the national election.

April 4 (C)— Bankruptcy papers for Ralph Coop er, stage and screen star, were ■ filed recently in the California Dis trict Court for the Southern Dis : trict cf California, Central Divi j sion, according to Ernest R. Utley, ■ refree in bankruptcy. Mr. Utley i gave public notice to Cooper’s creditors that the first creditors’ meeting would be held March 26 at 321 Federal Building, in this city, and that those who have any claims against the star must sub mit them within six months from March 26. Filing bankruptcy papers has been a favorite of those who not only desire to avoid payment of creditors, but who wish to avoid a total loss of all that may remain of their business or investments. It is not known whether Cooper’s action was intended to forestall any claims or foreclosure upon his present theatrical activities. "Gang I War,” Cooper’s latest starring ve hicle, had its New York premiere in Harlem for one week beginning March 29 at the Apollo Theatre. Glady’s Synder is co-star in this drama.

Walker’s preparations exclusively be cause I get results from them that I am unable to get from any other preparation,” stated a well known business woman the other day. The secret of the remarkable success of Mme. C. J. Walker’s preparations is in the fact that they were blended by the late Madam C. J. Walker to reach certain definite conditions of the hair, skin and scalp, and today, after over thirty-five years on the market, they are growing increasingly popular, and not withstanding the fact that the Company has always refused to reduce the price on these goods, they are still in demand every where. ( ' Mine. C. J. Walker’s Glossine, although more than thirty-five years on the market, is still the leader in its field. The reason for this is because it not only serves as a scalp oil, but it gives the hair that silky sheen and natural gloss that is the delight of every woman. Mme. C. J. Walker's Brown Face Powder is not just another Face Powder, but is the result of years of experimenting to pro duce the perfect blend to impart a velvetlike softness and at the same time cooling and refresh- / ing. Just the thing for these b ■jf* days. Mi The Mme. C. J. Walker derful preparations jri ?i s won - Walker Beautici^iure sold by Stores everywhdpns and Drug write The Mrrjfc < or you can Mfg.

In 1917, as Nebraska’s “business governor” his message to the leg islature proposed, among other things, co-operation with the fed eral government in development of irrigation, a new capitol build ing, a federally-assisted highway building program, improvements in workmen’s compensation law and encouragement of hydro power. THAT WAS 23 YEARS AGO! Today, Nebraska has these things, and many others that Keith Neville conceived so long ago. KEITH NEVILLE stands for Nebraska’s traditional econ omy and efficiency in government. KEITH NEVILLE believes in all sensible help for the aged, needy and unfortunate. KEjTH NEVILLE is honest. He does NOT believe in making cruel and FANTASTIC promises that have not the slightest chance of realization. KEITH NEVILLE will continue to fight for Nebraska's moderate policies of no new forms of taxation, no state debt, lowered tax burdens. KEITH NEVILLE has the soundness, ability, courage, fairness and understanding that Nebraska demands in its gov ernors. I N BRASKA NEEDS HIS I I EXPERIENCED LEADERSHIP I
