against apparently overwhelming odds
Gov. Bradley talked to the boy jour.
nalist for an hour, speaking most in.
terestingly on subjects that could not
fail to interest even youth that didn't
have news instinct.
The governor described his early ex.
periences as Republican in Demo
cratic hotbed, when to go to the polls
and vote the Republican ticket was
only one form of committing suicide.
He told how at one period of his po-
litical activity 1t became necessary for
all the Republicans of the town in
which he lived to fortify themselves
In a house and defend themselves
against Democratic raiders who were
thirsting for blood.
There were SO many of these stories
that the hour had passed before either
the governor or his visitor knew 1t,
and when the boy editor finally ex.
cused himself he carried away a pic.

man who is going to make himself
