Wilcox Keeps Record Straight

Chmn. d. w. Wilcox Of the state democratic execu-
tive committee has sent a clear-cut message 10 the
voters of Texas who call themselves democrats.
First, that it is untrue that the committee ruled
that candidates on the democratic ballot must De
limited to those who supported the democratic tick
ct in 1923.
Second, it is untrue that the ruling OF the COM
mittee applied to candidates for district. county and
precinct offices.
Third, it is untrue that the democratic committee
made a bid for the negro vote.
Fourth and most important Of all, 1t Is untrue
10 say that the committee bars as candidates Tor
office those who voted for the republican elector In
1923.
Fifth, and at the point the resolution adopted APP
plies only to candidates for state office and does not
apply to candidates for the district. the county or
the precinct offices.
This is true. The resolution adopted is clear cut
and to the point. AL Hoover democrats who voted
for Hoover and Curtis In 1928 are invited to return
to the party fold and participate in the primary
election in July.
They may become candidates for district and county
and precinct offices. They may become candidates
for the office Of United States senator. They may
become candidates for congressional representatives.
Their leaders who voted for Pres. Hoover IN 1928
are denied a place on the official ballot for gov
erno- OF the minor state places. As for Chmn. VII
cox, in conclusion this Is his attitude as to the fu-
ture:
far as I concerned, the question as 70
whether or not the committee has the legal authority

Fair enough Courts are interpreters Of the stat
utes Of the commonwealth. It win be for the judges
to enter final judgment In o judicial sense. and for
the voters at the polls to say the last word In the
selection Of state officers who are the servants and
not the masters Of the people.
This applies to the little fellows who get into the
offices as well as the big fellows.

LA BARBA BEATS
BUD TAYLOR In
GREAT BATTLE
BY BERT DEMBY
United Press Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, April %. U.P-Abil-
ity to get up off the floor and come
back to victory today placed Fidel
La Barba, pride of the Pacific coast,
a step farther along the path to the
featherweight boxing championship.
La Barba, who gave up the fly
weight championship to obtain an
education and took on so much
weight at Stanford University that
he came back to the ring as feath-
erweight, last night fought the
greatest battle of his career to de-
feat Buddy Taylor, the "Terre
Haute Terror, in 10 rounds by a
decision.
The fight began and ended sen.
sationally.
La Barba surprised Taylor with
willingness to slug in the first
round. Buddy measured the Italian
and shot over right cross. Fidel
landed on his face and it appeared
he was out. But he rolled over
and got up by the time the referee
had counted seven.
Fidel went to his corner in daze
and in the next round took one on
the jaw which staggered him. Again
it was Taylor's round, and the third
also went to Bud, by a close mar
gin.
La Barba rallied in the fourth,
took that round by a wide margin,
and also outscored Taylor in the
fifth, sixth and seventh.
La Barba took the eighth and
mines and the 10th was a slugging
match, with each fighter trying to
score a knockout.
The fight was the first of Pro
moter Jack Dempsey's elimination
series to obtain contender for
featherweight champion Bat Bat
talino.
Dempsey was elated today, hav-
ing finally put over a winner in his
promotional efforts in Chicago. Last
night he made $4,000.
