RASKOB FLOUTS
HOOVER LURE
IN SOUTH
BY international News Service

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE
Democratic campaign managers will
ignore the Republican drive in the
Solid South, it was definitely re-
vealed today by Chairman John J.

Since the announcement that Her
bert Hoover would personally carry
his campaign into Tennessee early

projected drive below the Mason.
Dixon line. Following receipt of re.
ports described as reassuring from
field managers throughout the
South, the national executive com
mittee hes decided to go along on
the present program in the Demo
cratic stronghold.
Reports of growing Democratic
disaffection throughout the South,
Raskob declared are largely exag-
gerated throughout the East and
Middle West by Republican news
papers. One of the party chiefs
who brought this reinsurance to
Chairman Raskob was Major George
L. Berry, of Tennessee, president
of the international FRESHMAN
Union and director Of the Demo
cratic national labor bureau.

of the Democratic Congressional
candidates in Pennsylvania. Raskcb

atorial election of William s. Ware,
Philadelphia Republican boss. was
one of those who claimed Pennsyl.
vania for Smith.
The Democrats have offered us
two men who are the friends OF the
worker he said.
Wilson declared he would take an
active part in the Pennsylvania
Presidential campaign.

from the speaking tours of the two
nominees themselves, will be
launched on a national scale on

Tydings, of Maryland, chairman Of
the national Speakers Bureau, an.
nounced today.
The chief emphasis, according to
the itineraries of a score of cam
paign speakers published today,
will be in the Middle West and
the moist East. but the South is
to have more than its usual share
of campaign oratory.
Senator Lawrence ID. Tyson of
Tennessee will open a speaking
tour in North Carolina September
