Bryan announces his readiness to
lake the stump for Parker and Davis
the first of September. It's almost dol
lars to doughnuts the national COM
mittce turns him down. His govern
ment ownership of railroads and other
socialistic ideas are entirely at vari-
ance with the views of Parker and his
financial hackers and would not mix
well with the arguments that will be
advanced by Bourke Cochran and
others. Democracy is sure enough in
dire distress.
