The YWCA and YMCA have really hit on a

Democrats For Governor
Mrs. Dillingham

University students will be offered a real taste
of regular election procedure one day before the
in on the official primary, It will give University state oes to the polls for the AprU 1 Primarv-
students a good chance to see how they vot3 in
comparison to the state. We also will get an idea
of what kind of a cross section of the state we
represent.
Because all students are eligible to vote, it would
be a good idea to start looking over the candi
dates, their platforms and decide which ones to
support and for what reasons. .
In one respect we are unusually fortunate. Al
ready four candidates seeking nomination have
appeared before student groups and two more
plan appearances. Gov. Val Peterson and Sen.
Hugh Butler, both seeking the senator's office,
have appeared before campus groups as have
two contenders for the GOP nomination for gov
ernor, Robert Crosby and Victor Anderson. Be
fore we vote, we'll have a chance to hear both
presidential candidates whose names appear on
the Democratio ballot Sen. Estes Kefauver and
Sen. Robert Kerr.
In taking advantage of the mock primary. The
Dally Nebraskan urges students who are dissat
isfied with the names of presidential candidates
on the ballots o use the "write-In" procedure
provided by the state attorney general's recent
ruling. For presidentialnomlnation on both tick
ets there are only two names: Harold Stassen
and Mrs. Mary Kenny are on the Republican
ballot, and Sen. Estes Kefauver and Sen. Robert
Kerr are on the Democratio ticket
As students we question the ability of either Re
publican candidate. We believe that the name of
Dwight D. Eisenhower would be a wise write-in
vote on the Republican ballot. On the Democratic
ticket, one candidate, Senator Kefauver, has made
a good showing in two primaries so far. We hope
he follows suit in this state. At any rate, we urge
students to take advantage of the write-in vote if
you are not satisfied with candidates listed on the
ballot. D. P.
Looking For A Governor
When Bob Crosby stopped in The Daily Ne- he does not know the answers Jo everything, his

his attitude was very sincere; and secondly, he Overall, we are impressed with this North Platte
did not appear to be a candidate so overly con- lawyer,a World War II veteran and former lieu-
fident of his success as to overshadow the prac- tenant governor, who is greatly interested in the
tical side of the campaign.
We had several questions to ask him. Some
had not been mentioned earlier in his speech
to University audience; and some were points
on which we wanted clarification. Although
Crosby had an eppointment In a few minutes
and undoubtedly -would be late if he spent any
time with us, he patiently answered our ques

welfare of the University although he is a Harvard
graduate. We admire him also for not trying to
hide the fact that he went east for college educa
tion. The office 6f governor of Nebraska would
be in capable hands if those hands were Bob
Crosby's. J. K.

himself "boyled in oil." Kind of
obvious, wasn't it?
Sen. Estes Kefauver was greeted
by the worst snowstorm this year.
I imagine that the Tennessean is
getting sort of used to snow by
now after the New Hampshire
campaign and this mess we have.
I Just can't seem to get off
this political kick, but the past
week brought about some sig
nificant political developments.
Sen. Robert Taft withdrew from
the New Jersey primary blast
ing Governor Earl Driscoll for
changing from a position of neu
trality to one of active support
of Elsenhower. Of course it Is
hist possible that Taft didn't
want to enter any more pri
maries in which the result was
not a forerone conclusion. Pres
ident Truman withdrew from
the California primary with no
apparent reason other than the
fact that he was unwilling to
tangle with Kefauver again. I
think he's got the right idea,
too.
From some reports, we may
soon see another active presiden
tial campaigner on the scene, this
time possibly in uniform. The
new campaigner could only be

Mrs. Dillingham, of Omaha, was the fiitt
Democratio gubernatorial candidate to file this
year. She is seeking her first publio office.
Declaring that she is running on a "I'll work
for good" platform, she stated in a letter to Sec
retary of State James Pittenger that "my heart is
filled with goodness for all in Jesus' name." She
"likes things sincere and honest," she has said.
State Roads 'Nice'
Speaking on a major campaign issue in Ne
braska this year, Mrs. Dillingham said she "found
the state roads nice" and added that perhaps it
was becauss "the Lord led us on the right roads"
when she and a relative recently made a political
tour through western Nebraska.

Drafted' Raecke
The most dramatic political "draft" in the state
for many years has put the name of Walter R.
Raecke (pronounced RA-(a as in add-key on the
April 1 primary election ballot as Democratic can
didate f(f governor.
Although the party's nominee in 1950, Raecke,
a Central City attorney, has declared since last
fall that he does not want to run for governor. But
the Democrats have refused to take "no" for, an
answer. When a unanimous approval at the pre
primary convention failed to change his mind,
party leaders immediately circulated petitions on
his behalf.
An estimated 1.200 names from 60 counties
were secured and it was enough to convince
Raecke that he should at least leave his name
on the ballot. But he still Insisted that he was not
running.
Will Run If Nominated
"If resardless of everything I have said, the
35 years and now shares a home with her working voters tenaer me xm t u

treated. In such case also I will abide the result
and will then act with interest, energy and ability
to which the importance of a contest for election
to the chief executive office of the state is entitled."
Raecke Is, undoubtedly, the Democrats'
strongest candidate. In 1950 when he was rnn
ning against Val Peterson a powerful vote-get-ter-Raecke
made the best showing any Demo
crat has made in running for governor since R.
L. Cochran was elected in 1938. Raecke was a
natural for the 1952 nomination.
Soft-spoken, quiet and conservative, the attor
ney has declared that he will make no public ap-
son and daughter, is the only woman seeking a
major political office in the state this year. In addi
tion to renting rooms and apartments, she pub
lishes a small paper called "The Goldren Star,"
which carries advertising and her observations on
"spiritual subjects."
At a recent publio meeting she said she had
worked for many Republicans in the past and
hoped that they would pay her back this year.
She failed to win pre-primaVy endorsement

Although Don Malonev of Allinnre "heram a
candidate for the Democratic nomination for gov- Pearance before the primary. He has even urged
ernor with the understanding that Walter Raecke
would not seek the office," his name has" remained
on the ballot despite Raecke's "draft."
Like Raecke, Maloney has declared he "will
not make an Intensive primary campaign and
will abide the decision of the voters at the pri
mary. In the event of my nomination," he has
continued, "I wish to assure the Democrats of
Nebraska that I will conduct an active fighting
campaign to acquaint them with my program
before the November general election."

while he opposed UMT as such, he favored in
creased military training In schools, both on a
secondary and college level, and an increased na
tional guard' program. Although he may have
alienated some by this stand, we think it is a good
idea and we admire him for advocating a counter
proposal for UMT.
On ways to cut down expenses In state gov
ernment, he also had tome concrete suggestions.
Besides a reorganisation of state departments,
he felt that the number of persons on state as
sistance payrolls was too great and that other
ways could be found for taking care of many
of them. Ha also believed that the present $55
a month for persons living on state incomes was
too little, but that the other cut would cover
this Increase.
During that visit and In succeeding speeches
we have heard and read, we have been convinced
After several years of shifting back and forth
from the University of Kansas to Kansas State
college, the change in altitude is quite enticing.
Although the cost will be higher, it should be
remembered that wh'le the distance is about
four times as far as Kansas, the ticket cost is
little more than twice Ihe amount. Last year's
migration tickets, the K -.est in history, were
17.50.
Tickets for a Colorado migration would be be
tween $15 and $20 if special rates can be obtained,
according to reports submitted to the Student
Council. So, University students would be coming
out on the long end besides having the prospect of
a good time.
To add to the glamour, the band already has
made plans to travel to Boulder for its annual
trip.

Unicameral Record
Raecke was a member of the state legislature
for eight years (from 1941 to 1949) and served as
speaker during the 1947-49 term. From 1945 to 1947
he was chairman of the legislative council. Dur
ing that session he played a leading part in two
water scraps, both resulting in the defeat of diver
sion bills. He opposed diversion.
During his first term in the legislature he was
a member of the appropriations committee. He was
chairman of the revenue and taxation committee
during his second term. He was also chairman of
a special committee on public power during that
session. (Every recommendation of the special com
mittee was enacted into law at the 1945 session.)

Karl Stefan, Raecke Was mentioned prominently
as a Democratic candidate for the unexpired term.
Raecke, however, declined to enter the contest.
In 1950 Raecke ran against four other candi
dates in the Democratic primary. He narrowly de
feated the second-place candidate, Terry Carpenter
(who has since become a Republican). Before the
primary, however, Governor Peterson declared that
if he were a Democrat, he would vote for Raecke
and praised him highly for his ability and integrity.
His chief criticism of his opponent, he said, was
mat Raecke did not take a stand on the highway
issue Peterson's main talking point.
Raecke is a graduate of the University Col
lege of Law. He was a member of the varsity track
and cross country teams and a, member of the
tciiior debate team. He was also president of his
senior law class.
Close Race In November
Despite his statement, "I have not been a can
didate and am not now a candidate; I have not
filed for office." it looks as though the draft will
stick.
The straw in the wind predicts that 1952 may
see the closest gubernatorial race in Nebraska
in many a year.

The same essential question
comes bp In many forms. Are
people Inherently bad or are
they good when they have a
fair chance? Do most folks
want to be lazy or do most of
them wans to work? Was
Hamilton right la saying, "Your people, sir, is a
blind beast," or ear, they be trusted to govern
themselves better than 'autocrats can do It for
them?
Do parents help children most by beating them
r by understanding and setting them s good
example? Is an accused citizen innocent until
proved guilty or vice versa? Is education a right
of every child r do some not deserve it? Should
the benefits of medical care be for those who
can pay ur for those who need them? Are most
poor people Inferior or the victim of bad
breaks? And ae en and on.
Of course most individuals would vote a "split
ticket" on any such list of questions but Fm
Inclined to think most would go pretty much down
the line on one side or the other.. Many would
also speak on one side and act on the other; would
say they favored giving the other fellow a pat on
the back and then proceed to give him a kick in
the pants.
There are Americans who will vote against let-
has different color or who lives in another place
or who holds a different faith or who .behaves
in a way you don't like. As Mortimer Snerd has
said of being stupid, "It ain't easy." It is some
times very hard.
What difference does it make how we feel and
act toward other people? Most all the difference
in the world, I'd say. It makes the difference
between using the fruits of science and invention
to deal death or to give life. It makes the differ
ence between material productivity for its own
sake or for a better standard of living for peo
ple everywhere.
It makes the difference of being honest or dis
honest about such things as the Bill of Rights and
the Ten Commandments. It makes the difference
between democracy as an idea and democracy as
an experience. For your kids and my kid and the
other fellow's kids, it can make the difference b
tween Hie and death. And for you and me it
makes the difference between being happy or un
happy while we live and being remembered or for
gotten when we're gone. r
