fails to be a party or a man and is
void of enough intelligence to rep
resent good Americanism.
FRANK WALTON,
Campbellsburg, Ind.
Editor Times: Thousands of voters
believe, as Mr.. Trowbridge of
Mitchell does, on your stand in this
campaign.
Sometimes it may be we'll to be in
consistent, but surely this is not the
year nor the occasion for it. A few
questions might open the history of
the administrations, State and ma
tional, for the last eight years. The
Times and Mr., Trowbdige may med-A.
itate at their leisure upon them
Does not any one who support
Hoover in Indiana this year suI
ports Jackson, Walb, McCray, Rob-
inson, Watson, Duvall, Leslie, Bush,
Stephenson, Shumaker, Gilliom, and
what they have done in eight years?
Can any one imagine a single .
member of the residents cabinet
not being on the inside of all the
Teapot Dome steal? Did not the
Presidents party while he was pre-
siding over the Senate, start the in
vestigation of it2
Will the men who benefited by
the unlimited funds raised by Sim
clair, Hays, Doheny, Forbes, Jess
Smith, Daugherty, King, and many.
others, be any different in power
for another four years? Could you
have presided over the debate on
the. resolution to investigate without
saying or doing a thing about it
for eight years, or as President
says-they will or should be
punished? When, we ask?
If Mellon, Hays, Daugherty, Fall,
ct al. have known this Tor years, .
and said or done nothing, can the
people expect more from their
fellow workmen the next four
years?
Would Roosevelt have cleaned
house in six months time?
Why did not the Senate and
House pass the farm bill over the
Presidents veto, if they were
sincere in voting for it?
Could they have felt that votes.
were worth more than vetoes?
Why did not the President or
some Cabinet member prepare and
have passed better bill, in eight,a
years time?
1t does seem strange that those
who have assisted in dynamiting it :,
all from under cover will go right
ahead and try to put the gang
back in power! A government Of .
two parties affords the relief.
Change.
CONSISTENCY. h
Editor Times-I read your
Readers Views" in The Times and
some of them sure do hit the nail
on the head, but others miss it a.
mile. The "Old Reader was good.
AS a sample of what causes dis
respect for the law we will take the
way the daylight saving law was
pushed down our Threats and the (
way our sleepy board of safety and
police chief are trying to push the
no right or left turns down our
threats.
They had better be thinking of
a way to stop the crooks and kid
napers and murderers and so
forth.
AS to the editorial of Mr. Trow-
bridge, I can not see it at all.
He admits he is a Democrat and
he would vote the ticket if there
was a yellow dog or a Cninaman
the head of it. Here are my views
of the election.
I am a Republican, but I Agn
opposed to Hoover, Stark alGI
Leslie. 1 am going to support Muir
ray for prosecutor; Daley for
Governor, and if the Democratic
party puts over man like jim
Reed or McAdoo or Helm I vote
for either, but to even consider
Smith makes me sick.
I am very tired of voting for the
corrupt Republican party, but the I
Democrats don't seem to offer the
people who vote for them theV
chance to put over a real Demo-
crat.
The reason I am opposed to Stark
is because I am opposed to
Remyism. From what l have read
in The Times and other papers
have formed an opinion that Il
last primary was very corrupt, bt
where are the prosecutions? ~
It is not the voters who defeatV
the Democrats, it is the Democrats
themselves who do the work. If
they would only put over a man
on the order of those I have
suggested, it would be landslide.
But Smith will just cause us
people who vote Democratic to
vote Republican because we do be-
lieve Hoover is a better man than
Smith, although lots of people do
not want to vote for Hoover.
If you care to publish this as it
is written it is all right to me AMI
you may sign my name. If you do
not print it 1t is o. K with me.
