HEOCK PLANS tcrat to Conduct Vigor- ampaign on Non-Party Versus Party Government. BY WILLIAM HARD. The picture puzzle of who Will sup- port whom in Nebraska in the Fall elections got another severe jolt today when'it developed that former Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock, the Democratic nominee in the Nebraska senatorial Tace against Senator George W. Norris, Republican, has rejected the expecta- tion of numerous important Democratic Cainat Mr. Norris and his fundamental ideas national leaders and is determin make an actual vigorous fight declared Mr. Hitchcock today. consented to run in order to maintain the Democratic party organization in full vigor, so that it would not meet the fate of the party in Wisconsin and Minnesota.’ This announcemsnt upsets the whole Nebraska situation once more. Local febraska Democrats went. into the Re- primary in Nebraska on August. 12 in large numbers in order to vote for Mr. Norris as a supporter of the Democratic presidential nominee, Alfred Emanuel Smith, in 1928 and as the most active and valuable leader of publican 10 FIGHT NORRS the insurgent anti-administration Re- publicans in the Senate. National Democratic managers in many cases fell in with this policy of a considerable part of the local Nebraska demoeracy and gave their hopes to Mr. Norris and to a rmu::odc{‘ut}ue for him as the administration's chief stumblnig Nog on the Senate floor. ‘They regarded Mr. Hitchcock's en- trance into the Democratic primary in Nebraska as constituting only a move for_eliminating Dr. Jennle Calfas, who was striving for the Democratic sena- torial nnm’nnuon after having sup- ported Herbert Hoover for President in spite of her membership in the Demo- cratic National Committee. The idea accordingly was to punish the Demo- crat Dr. Calfas for voting for the Re- publican Mr. Hoover, while rewarding the Republican Mr. Norris for voting jfor the Democrat Mr. Smith. ‘The accompanying idea was that Mr, Hitchcock, having defeated Dr. Calfas, would go into virtual retirement and for reasons of party strategy would offer only a formal resistance to Mr. Norris, wi he has from time to time commended in his newspaper, Omaha World Herald, and would will- ingly concede a fightless victory to Mr. Norris and thus the return to the Senate of the Democratic party's chief Republican ally. ‘This inter-party plan has been fur- thered on the Re side in the reverse sense by the announced inten- tion of numerous Nebraska regular Re- publicans to desert Mr. Norris and vote for Mr.. Hitchcock. National Repub- lican leaders have dominantly fallen in on this point with local Nebraskan reg- ular Republican sentiment. Simeon D. Fess, chairman of the Re- publican National Committee, did, in- deed, announce that his committee would make no distinctions between candidates, in Nebraska or , but this announcement has been succeeded by plain statements at Republican national headquarters to the effect that the Republican Ni the | ING STAR, WASHINGTON, Committee is dedicated to the imper- | scemed very small.

That is all the national regular Republican support that Mr. Norris is so far getting. This general playing on both sides of the political street was called to order or to new disorder today by Mr. Hitchcock, who further declared: “I took no active part in the primary fight, but I shall now campaign vigor- ously. One important difference be- tween Mr. Norris and me is that T am a party man, believing strongly in our American system of party government. Mr. Noiris is not. The relations of my newspaper to Mr. Norris have bsen mis- understood. Editorial commendation is | no indication of alliance eny more than editorial criticism is of enmity. Mr. Norris and I have differed more than we have co-operated in the past. My campaign will not be personal. My campaigns have never been personal. I shall, nevertheless, do my best to make this campaign effective. When I consented to run the chance of success Sturtevant Blowers For Burning Buckwheat Coal Fries, Beall & Sharp 734 10th St. N.W.
