DEMOCRATS HOPE
FOR NORRIS VOTE
Nebraska Tour of Senator
Robinson Believed to Pave
Way for Flop.
By the Associated Press.

EN- ROUTE WITH SENATOR ROB-
INSON TO SIOUX CITY, Iowa, Octo-
Der 23.-Nebraska Democrats today
expressed the conviction that the Ne
braska tour Of Senator Joe T. Robinson,
Democratic vice presidential nominee.
has opened o way for Republican
friends Of Senator George W. Norris to
vote for Gov. Smith for President.
Senator Robinson in his Nebraska
campaign, which closes today, has
drawn q picture which party leaders
say illustrates the similarity of views
those propounded by the Democratic
standard bearers.
One of the questions claiming atten-
ton Of Democratic workers in Nebraska
is whether Senator Norris, Repub-
lican, will make a fiat declaration in
favor of Gov. Smith. Those who ex-
pect that he will point to his state
ment in Massachusetts, that although
he is q Republican he would vote for
Senator Walsh, q Democrat II he lived
in Massachusetts, and declared that
they would not be surprised at similar
statement about Gov. Smith.
Praises Norris.
AS for the part Senator Robinson
took In Nebraska in erasing strict party
lines, Democratic workers of the State
are confident the Senator's praise of
Norris will ease their job Of getting Re-
publican votes in their effort to carry
the State for Smith. At Frand Island,
Senator Robinson praised Norris as a
man "who stands by his principles and
votes the way he talks" and at Lin
coin last night he. spoke Of the Ne
braSka Senator as second only to
Roosevelt as a progressive leader" In
number of speeches, Mr.. Robinson
has now become the Progressive party 81
Speculation In Nebraska as to the
effect Of a declaration by Senator Nor
ris in favor Of Smith ranges all the
way from those of some Democrats who
hold such q declaration would cinch
the State for the New York Governor
to those of group of Republicans
who say 1t would have no material
effect Some Democrats declare that
it would mail down" a considerable
group Of Republican votes, which al
ready are favorable to the Democratic
national ticket and which Republicans
are working hard to turn back 70
Hoover.
Speaks in Iowa Tonight.
Leaving the fight in Nebraska To
State workers, Senator Robinson travel
ed toward Iowa today for an address in
Sioux City tonight He will return to
Iowa later In the week after visits to
the Dakotas and Minnesota to make
an address in Des MoineS over an ex-
tensive radio hook-up.
In his speech at Lincoln last night,
Senator Robinson made another plea
for voters to "set aside passion and
prejudice. He read letter signed
IA Republican who will vote for Smith
In which the writer said he had been
disguised" by an attack made by his
minister in a Methodist church in
Lincoln against Smith.
"I went to church to hear a sermon, "
the writer said, land heard a political
speech. am Republican, but ! Will
vote for Gov. Smith, because love
fair play"

week to allow use of the hall to Ben

tial candidate, brought about his re-
quest for the hall. The request was
granted, but the permit was Cancelled
the following day when newspapers
discovered the advent of the mon

Gitlow's failure with accounts Of Potts
success.

crudity and grossness of the COM
mon life as it existed on Main
Street.
And now in conclusion were
asked if, were it in my power,
would l blot out, or substitute for,
the Main Street which has been so
large a part of my life, the answer
would be an emphatic NO. shall
always have a kindly affection for
it. My experience of life has been
somewhat varied in the days gone
by. For l have soft-pedaled with
felt-slippered shoes through a roy
al palace; I have tripped the light
fantastic toe on the boulevards of
Paris; with solemn visage l have
SIMULTANEOUSLY threaded my way
through Westminster Abbey gaz-
ing upon the tombs of the great
with every emotion of envy, as Ad-
Olson said, dying within me; upon
the invitation of certain million
aires I have travelled with them
in their palatial car from coast to
coast, drinking freely of their
champagne, and, in order not to
appear ungrateful, not even utter
ing a protest when they would
criticize severely the pernicious
habits of the coalminers we saw at
certain points along the road as
they emerged from the infinite
darkness of underground and
hied to the nearby saloon to in
dulge in a schooner or two of
beer; and I boldly assert that, pos
sibly because I am crude in my
instincts and of the earth earthly,
I would not exchange my decades
of life on Main Street for all the
gilded vacuities so eagerly sought
by many, and whose surface l
have been fortunate in being per-
mitted merely to touch.
And so viewing this mortal ex-
istence in the way Main Street has
had much to do in causing me to
look at it, I felt perfectly free on
my 10th birthday to arrange in me-
trical form the following, and thus
give expression to the sentiment
that came to me on that natal day
so frequently noted in the annals
of mankind.
How many springs my eyes shall
see,
How many times the budding
green,
Lies hidden in the mystery
That life to me has ever been.
But that this fragment of Thy
worlds
Has held me in it's active hands,
And stirred the latent potencies
My personality commands
That in this wondrous cosmic
whole
l. too too, have been a conscious
And close my meagre being
pressed
Against the Universal Heart
That I should thus participate
In Thy great work, o Thou
Supreme,
Awakes my love, and fervenr faith
That life can prove no empty
dream.
