STANDS FOR PROGRESS

Governor Cox. Democratic candi'
date for the Presidency, selected by
The most representative, most untram-
meled, most progressive convention
ever held in the history Of American
institutions, stands for the present
day spirit of go-aheadness. He be-
lieves that the world is a moving
advancing, vitalized world, that it
cannot be successfully turned back
ward. He doesn't believe that it
needs a soporific; a sedative, maybe,
but not a soporific.
Mr.. Cox's record as Governor of
Ohio is a continuous record of ad-
vancement-of progress. His consid-
Grafton Of industrial questions has al.
ways been judicial, sympathetic and
understandingly accurate. His decis.
ions have been received with satis
faction by both capital and labor
where controversies have arisen and
where conflict seemed imminent. Ohio,
great industrial state that she is, has
had more than her share of indus.
trial complications. Governor Cox
has steered a steady course, and the
record which he has made as chief
executive of his native state he will
make as Chief Magistrate should
he be elected in November, as l con-
fidently believe he will be.
What no has done as Governor Of
Ohio he will do in a greater way as
President Of the United States, where
his opportunities will be vastly great.
er. He is far-seeing, q man of
vision who is not visionary, a mod.
ern man who thinks in a modern
way, and, more than that, acts as he
thinks.
At every stage of his public career,
abreast Of the times. Governor Cox,
can take up the reins of government
fully equipped to meet and master
every important issue.
In his speech OF acceptance the
Governor has sufficiently outlined his
policies on vital questions. As the
campaign progresses, he will eiabo-
rate the views expressed in his Day
ton pronouncement accepting the
nomination.
There will never be an occasion 10
doubt the Governors position on
questions that arise. He hits from
the shoulder and hits hard. When
the country becomes more intimately
acquainted with his views and more
familiar with the splendid record Of
his accomplishments, it will harbor
no suspicion that he is not progress
sive in every national meaning of that
term.
He will make it plain that the real
point Of difference between the Demo
cratic party and the Republican party
is not changed-that one represents
progress and a world that moves,
while the other represents reaction
and q nation benumbed. - George
White, Chairman Democrat National
Committee.
