VIRGINIA PRESS SCORED.

CLARENDON, Va, September 6 (Spe-
ciaD In preparation for the scheduled
appearance tomorrow night at the
Washington-Lee High School of Dr.
William Moseley Brown, independent
Democrat and Republican candidate for
governor, j. Cloyd Byars, chairman of
the Eighth Congressional District Inde-
pendent Democratic Organization, is
sued a statement today in which he
brands the newspapers of Virginia as
"a machine controlled press"
If the press Of Virginia" Byars de-
clared in part, had been as diligent
in its demands for political integrity on
the part Of the leaders as it has been
energetic in preaching party regularity
to the voters, there probably would
have been no occasion for the inde-
pendent Democratic movement. This
movement on the part of the thinking
Democrats is not a one-man affair to
satisfy a personal grudge against a
United States Senator, as some of the
machine controlled papers of Virginia
pretend to believe. It is revolt against
the organization leaders in Virginia who
have miSrepresented Virginia Democracy
both in national conventions and in
State and national legislation, and have
allowed political conditions to arise and
remain which Virginians can no longer
tolerate"
