Crosby Tells GOP's
To End Centralization
Republican gubernatorial nomi-
ftee Bob Crosby Thursday nignt
lost no time getting to his key
point,decentralization of govern
ment, after he was introduced
by Dan Tolman, newly elected
president of the University Young
Republicans.
He congratulated an esti
mated 300 students who had
gathered in the Union Ballroom
for taking their places in the
Republican party. Young people,
he said, are prone to adopt a
"liberal point of view."
Liberal government, Crosby
said, has "run rife" for the last
20 years. "The history of liberty,"
he quoted Woodrew Wilson, "is the
history of limits on the power of
government."
Putting his point on a local
basis, he said that Nebraska is
an agricultural state and does not
want federal control.
"People are too Inclined to
depend on the federal govern
ment to solve the problems of
Nebraska," Crosby said.
For this reason, he said, he was

Student Receives Autographed
'Mr. President' For Prediction
By JAN HARRISON

At least as far as Dick Hansen,

ye an arucie written Dy
Hansen and entitled "Daniels in

i dieted the retirement of President
Truman in 1952. Hansen wrote
the piece in rebuttal to the article
"Truman Can't Lose" written by
Jonathan Daniels which appeared
in tne American Magazine.
In a letter received by the
Daily Nebraskan Oct. 14, Han
sen said he had the fortune to
get an autographed copy of the
book "Mr. President" by Wil
liam Hillman, published last
spring and the first compilation
of the private papers of a Presi
dent while he is still in office.
The book was autographed by
President Truman while en
route from Lincoln to Shenan
doah, la.
T was delighted to get this
copy autographed in view of the
fact that it was only last fall that
I heard from the White House that
the President had got a big laugh
out of my article predicting his
retirement. I am feeling pretty

In bis disagreement of Dan
iels statement that President
Truman would run again In 1952
Hansen said, "All along the line
the Chief Executive bas been
hinting first one way and then
the next about 1952. And Dan
iels didn't show any originality
by saying that the President
was trying to throw us off the
track. But it is just as plain
as the nose on Senator Conley's
Texas face that Truman will
not run again in 1952."
Hansen went on to repeat a I
comment which appeared i nj
Newsweek that there would be

in his right mind would want it
Hansen reprimanded Daniels
for Ignoring the interest Tru
man took In Democrats high up
on the popularity poll In the
last four years. He mentioned
especially Truman's concern for
Vinson.
Another point Hansen pre
sented was that Truman would
be 68 in 1952. "Ever hear of a
man running for president when
he was 68?"
"Then, too." Hansen wrote, "all
a person has to do is take a look

He looks dead tired and who
wouldn't be wit!1 no controls and
