| —-—— =~ —— Cts HAMILTON, FARLEY ARE CAST T0 PLAY DIFFERENT ROLES Democrat to Stay Behind Scenes While GOP Chief Courts Limelight By BYRON PRICE Chief of Bureau, The Associated Prese, Washington Every campaign development em- phasizes more clearly the great im- portance of the roles which are to be played in 1936 politics by Democratic Chairman James A. Farley and Re- publican Chairman John D. M. Ham- Uton. These two roles are as different as are the two men to whom they have been assigned. Yet each in its own way carries responsibilities which ordinarily do not attach to party chairmanship, and which may easily be tremendous factors in the result of the election. Always, a presidential campaign has two parts. One is the public part —the “front,” the speech-making and the ballyhoo, and the delineation of party policy. The other is the sub- David Larson, tried four times on char; once sentenced to die on the gallows, t: hall with Ruth Rankin, magazine writer, tion to marry.

Very often in the past the presi- dential nominee has proviaed “front,” determining policies and tak- ing the cheers and publicity, while the national chairman has done the real work of practical organization. Sometimes the nominee has taken care of both duties, and the chairman has been a mere figurehead. Neither of these rules seems to apply fully this year.

It would be too sweeping a state- ment, however, to say that Mr. velt. will be looked to as his own campaign manager.

D., July 20, 1936. | Editor, Tribune: Recently in your paper I noticed that Ex-Governor Hanna and fam- ily of Fargo were to dedicate a mon- ument to the memory of Hazel Miner, the young girl that lost her life near Center in 1920 in one of the worst blizzards we ever experienced. This has now been 16 years since this storm and the writer wonders what became of the money that was collected at that time for this monu- and have seen him in action. He re- lies on his chief for the selection of objectives; but once the goal is point- ed out, he uses his own methods to Attain the desired end. And in this the president has given him wide latitude. ‘Nor is there any doubt that in the realm of political detail, Farley has established a formidable reputation among politicians. The results of his foresight and his intensive private effort were apparent at the Phila: delphia convention when such pow- erful factors as the Tammany organ!- zation in New York and the Hague juries, Science Monitor, and William Reiter, tempts to escape from the plane.

The storm was on the 16th day of March, 1920. A few days later a Mrs. McLeod of Stan! N. D,, in a letter to the Courier-News of Fargo, Wm. Lemke, president; Herbert E. Gaston, treasurer; George F. McPherson; busi- ness manager, and R. M. McClintock, managing editor, suggested that a collection be taken up from the school children of the state of North Dakota and the proceeds used in erecting a memorial in honor of Hazel Miner who hed given her life in protecting “|her younger sister and brother. The Courier News editorially thought well of the idea and agreed to accept and act as custodian of the fund. organization in New Jersey, which myself. had opposed the original Roosevelt nomination bitterly, voted solidly for the renomination. Many think important states may swing in November on Farley's abil- ity to keep these and similar big-city machines completely in line for the ticket. s* & Landon Best As Organizer Among the Republicans the situ- ation is quite different. It appear: that instead of figuring chiefly as a “front” for the campaign, Governor Landon will take a decisive part in the intensive work of party organiza- tion; while Chairman Hamilton, in- stead of devoting all of his attention to organization, probably will make more speeches than the nominee. For Landon is not regarded even by his warmest friends as the sort of candidate who displays his best qualities on the stump, On the con- trary, his political reputation in Kan- sas was established by his ability at party conciliation and unified organ!- zation, first as the Republican state chairman, later as governor. Conversely, Hamilton is recognized as a vigorous campaigner, and his in- experience as an organizer led to much private objection from some of the old-line leaders when he first was mentioned for the chairmanship. ‘That he will be an important part of the “front” of the Republican cam- paign is generally conceded, whatever part he may play otherwise. By and large, it is difficult to re- tall a year when such heavy respon- ibilities rested on the two party chairmen. Or when the two chair- men, each in his own way, went more vigorously to work to discharge those responsibilities. STAMMEN IMPROVING Minot, N.

On April 20 the sum had reached $110.08 and the Courier- News said, “memorial is now as- sured.” The fund kept on increasing and on Oct. 28 had reached $717.95. On this date a Rev. E. E, Saunders of Fargo donated $2.00 and suggested the money be turned over to the North Dakota Children’s Home so- ciety. On Nov. 12 Oliver county fund of $175.00 was acknowledged and $10.00 from pupils of Maddock schools.

Dean said Harvey Davis, Black Le- gion “colonel,” ordered him and Charles Rouse to “drive around and find a Negro—anyone so long as he’s black,” and then fired a shot into the back of the first Negro they saw. Ecorse police said the victim was Edward Armour, 33, a factory worker, who was shot at the door of his home in the suburb in February, 1935. Armour, who was in a hospital for months, will view Dean, Davis and Rouse today. Davis denied Dean's story, but Ecorse police said the bullet taken from Armour's back was fired from a pistol taken from Davis. Marked for Death Dean said Davis’ insistence upon shooting “any” Negro followed an un- successful attempt to find Clarence Oliver, Negro campaign worker for Mayor William W. Voisine of Ecorse. Oliver had been marked for death by the legion, Dean asserted. Mayor Voisine, who also was the target of an unsuccessful Black Le- gion death plot according to another of Dean’s numerous statements, ordered Ecorse police to seek possible Black Legion ramifications in a dwell- ing fire in which James E. Bailey, a Negro campaign worker, burned to Ceath in February, 1934. Davis, Rouse, Ervin D. Lee, John Bannerman and James Roy Lorance will be given a court examination Tuesday in connection with the un- provoked slaying of another Negro. Dean again was their accuser. The victim in that case was Silas Coleman, 42. Dean said the Negro was shot to death there because Davis “wanted to see how it feels to kill a Negro.” Mrs. Nancy Millett Laid to Rest Here The strains of “Rock of Ages” and “Nearer My God to Thee,” which she requested as her requiem music, were sounded at the funeral service at 2 Pp. m., Monday Willett.

The general feeling among the ad- ministration folks was that Governor Landon had added somewhat to his stature but not sufficiently to be re- garded by the New Dealers as having as yet become a formidable rival to President Roosevelt. ‘The criticism mostly heard was that the speech did not offer any formula or alternative that could be accepted as concrete evidence of fu- ture policy, though it was conceded that, in a 3,500-word address, every- thing could hardly be compressed that would deal with national prob- lems. It was recalled, to course, that Mr. Roosevelt and his associates in the government have been express- ing through many hundreds of thou- sands of words on the radio and in press statements the many details of governmental policy, and that an articulate opposition did not in ity appear until Governor Landon at cepted the leadership of the Repub- lican party Thursday night. an intimate knowledge of govern- mental problems, it is probably nat- ural that the Republican nominee's speech should be scrutinized more carefully than elsewhere. There were some New Dealers who thought Mr. Landon had made a shrewd speech, Here in Washington, where there is; “David Lawrence in fact some called it a clever kind of evasion of dominant issues, very much after the fashion of other can- didates who follow the theory of say- ing as little as possible that will rather numerous. The governor was said to have failed to enunciate words clearly, rather sliding over important syllables. Also it was declared that the governor did not punctuate his speech with enough pauses at the periods so that the listener could care- fully grasp the thought. There was, at times, an unfortunate quickening of the pace and again a slower and more deliberate delivery. It is the lat- ter which is more effective on the radio. Those who heard Governor Landon speak several months ago and also this week declared he had improved his delivery a great deal. It is curious how many who commented spoke of offend and as much as possible that will please his listeners. One interesting comment from an administration official, who is not only fair-minded but who has been paying attention to radio somewhat, was that Governor Landon had im. proved 100 per cent in his radio de- livery but that he was far from the finished speaker that President Roose- velt is on the air. Criticisms of the radio delivery were the speech as perhaps reading bet- ter than it sounded, whereas there were several admirers of Governor Landon who insisted that the delivery, while not spectacular, was as good as average and that it reflected a sincerity and earnestness. ‘These points are important nowa- days because they relate to the radio personality of a candidate. Every in- tonation, every form of emphasis, every pause and measured punctua- tion gives the listener an impression of a radio speaker's personality. While the politicians may not like it, they are going to be more and more concerned with how the radio speaking is done than they ever used to be about mak- ing speeches in big auditoriums. In- cidentally, the speeches before big mass meetings were invariably a flop in the old days. Few candidates could stand up before the large crowds and hold them longer than a few min- utes. Again and again, President Wil- json was annoyed by the way crowds that had gathered in large halls would start moving away after he had begun speaking. This was, of course, mostly due to the absence of loud-speaking devices in those days. But the point is that candidates sur- vived then their inability to impress large audiences. Whether candidates speaking over the radio can today af- ford to ignore the essentials of proper elocution and delivery is doubtful. ‘Mr. Landon probably will improve his radio delivery as the campaign progresses. Herbert Hoover was & poor radio speaker in 1932, but he is much better in 1936, The sum total of the comments and the discussion hereabouts is that Governor Landon made some gains by his speech and that he aroused an even greater curiosity as to what he will say in subsequent addresses, when he takes up labor, for instance, and devotes an entire speech to that sub- ject, or when he outlines in detail, in @ separate speech, exactly how he intends to handle the relief problem if elected. CHRISTIANSON LAUDS AMERICA WAR DEAD Judge Calls Mandan Memorial Building Living Tribute to Soldiers Paying tribute to America’s soldier dead Sunday, Justice A. M. Christian- son of the state supreme court, made the dedicatory address for the new $125,000 World War Memorial build- ing, completed here by laborers of three federal agencies. “A building such as this is a living memorial, a daily tribute to men who sacrificed their lives for their country rather than a dead shaft of granite as are so many memorials,” Justice Christianson declared. Men who gave their lives in the World War gave them in defense of principles which gave America birth,” he said. “Let us here highly resolve that these men shall not have died in vain. Let us make sure this build- ing is never used for principles con- trary to those principles for which those men gave their lives.” C. F. Kelsch, Morton county state’s attorney, presided. Construction of the building was started in 1933 under the Civil Works administration. The Federal Emer- gency Relief administration and Pub- lic Works administration also had a hand in completing the structure. It is estimated that approximately 10 per cent of the hap crop of the United States is destroyed by fire every year.
