FROM BAREFOOT NEWSBOY TO
CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT

From a barefoot newsboy to the
proprietor and editor of two leading
. newspapers is a far cry it was ar-
complished by James NJ. Cox. goeern-
or of Ohio, who is the democratic
candidate for president of the uni
ted States.
1t was in Middletown. Ohio. that
ycung Cox shouted his wares. There
he stood on the street corners sell
ing newspapers with all the enthus-
iasrn of youth Then he became a
printers devil. his face and hands
bespattered with ink and in this
school OF hard knocks--h he saw the
opportunities which lay ahead of
him in his chosen work.
With a vision of the day when
he rwcuid become an editor, young
Cox mastered all the mechanical
faturea of the trade and with this
knowledge tucked away in his head
he sought job as a reporter.
There are those in Cincinnati who
still remember the youth, remember
the knocks and rebuffs he received,
Elbert County tribune and Elbert County banner., 1920-09-17

remember how he served his cnl
day and how he succeeded in master
ing the style OF journalism of hi.
day.
Then the youth bought a newspa-
psr. He borrowed the money tC
make the great adventure. 1t was
4 hard task but his courage was su-
prene his confidence was unlimited
and his knowledge of the business
had been learned from the ground
up. He put his shoulder to the
wheel and success crowned his ef-
forts. He set about to print the
news fairly and impartially and this
policy won him the confidence and
support of the people.
Today The governor owns two
clean, progressive papers in Ohio,
housed in splendid buildings and
run on efficient lines. Probably no
one knows Governor Cox better than
his life long friend United States
District Judge Robert NJ. Marx of
Cincinnati. Judge Marx says:

Jim Cox was born at Jacksonburg.

HOUSE COMMITTEE WILL HAVE NO MORE
 ALASKA HEARINGS
Chairman Curry of House Commit tee on Territories III and
 Hearings Cease

WASHINGTON, March 29.-Rep- resentative Charles F. Curry of Cali fornia, chairman of the House Con- mittee on Territories, is laid up in the hospital. recovering from an op- eration. He has announced that the Territories committee will prob ably not have any more hearings on Alaskan matters during this session of Congress.
 This announcement is regarded to mean that he will not press his development board measure until the snort session next winter. It is believed, however, by those who are following legislation that the measure will pass then.
 This will not affect Alaska legis- lation that is being considered by other committees as the transporta- tion bill is in the hands of the com- mittee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries, or the road matters which are before the Military Affairs and Agricultural committees.
