who has never voted for a Republi.

Your account Of the Hardinc
chances interests me very much. Az
you may happen to recollect, I am
Democrat and will cast my first
Republican presidential vote In Nov

utterly opposed to the So called

only one In Ohio. Many of my
friends in this Democratic commun.

quaintance with him dating back

what nice things were being said ont
there but no use. The last time I
really talked with Harding was in
January, just before he entered the
race which he told me, he would,
and that he would come through
nicely.
