Confines His Discussion to a
Question of What Should
Be Done For New Mexico
By the Nation.
SPECIAL DISPATCH 70 MORNING JOURNAL

Ration, N. M, Sept. with two
exceptionally we'll attended meet
ings, Senator Bursum yesterday
began his campaign for election
September 20 to the u. s. senate.
The republican candidate, with
Charles Springer, president of the
state highway commission, spoke
lat a rally in the Rialto theater early
in the evening and followed with
addresses in hall on the east eide
where the senator spoke in the ma
ave tongue.
In both talks, Senator Bursum
gave evidence Of the breadth that
has lifted him to foremost posi-
ton in his state. Confirming his re-
marks to the simplest statement of
problems confronting the nation
and what his attitude has been and
would continue to ge in regard to
these matters, the senator at no
time made the slightest reference
to partisan issues. New Mexico
first was the slogan the senator
gave as Il summary of his attitude,
Promise of early adjustment Of
compensation for veterans of the
NUllu war was Itidue ny CGHdlol
Bursum. He declared the matter
of compensating soldiers, sailors
and marines was not really ques-
ton of granting them a bonus, but
rather one Of paying what the gov
eminent owes them. He called at
! tention to the fact that the $500
which would be allowed each vete-
ran if the pending action goes
through would be chiefly a return
of money the boys paid in on in.
surance policies. The senator re-
minded his audience that en-
ployers usually assume this kind Of
insurance for their employees.
Ration became thoroughly ac'
quainted with the pipe. The sena'
torial briar was a familiar sight In
in the streets and business houses
here all day. The senator left fol
Clayton this morning.
