FOE sECRETARy ar sTATE

While 1t is not appropriate for the
Press to be partial among local can
didates c~ontesting for primary selec-
tion. It may properly speak a friendly
word for home candidates in the lar
ger field Of state politics. AS the
Press has many democratic readers
II calls their attention to the candi-
dacy of Daniel Healey. OF this city, for
a place upon their state ticket. He Is
a loyal citizen and party man. and
deserves the support OF his party. He
will be nominated without opposition
but a generous home endorsement
will be a mark or appreciation from
his home people that any mar may
treasure.
