COLE BLEASE'S

Spirited Contests Expected
to Draw Out Strong
Voting Strength.
Bv United Press

Primary elections occupied the
attention of voters in eight states
today.
Spirited contests for offices in
Louisiana, Michigan, Colorado,
South Carolina and Arizona, were
expected to draw out comparative
ly strong voting strength.
Lack of outstanding issues and
unopposed candidates made for
lesSened interest in Washington,
New Hampshire and Vermont.
In several instances the primary
was of more Importance than the
election that is to follow. In Louisi-
anna and South Carolina the
Democratic nomination is tanta-
mount to election, while Michigan,
New Hampshire and Vermont are in
the habit of electing Republican
Office holders.
Senator Cole L. Blease sought re-
nomination in a run-off contest in
South Carolina on the basis of an
Endorsement of lynching as the only
way to prevent Negro attacks on
white women.
Prohibition was the only issue of
Importance in Washington, with
four of the sixteen candidates adj
yocating changes in the law.
In Vermont and New Hampshire
the Republican contests for Cover
nor furnished the only real COM
petition.

Selecting Men for Grand

PERU, Ind, Sept. ga slap at
the naming of three Paramount men
on the Grant county grand jury
investigating the lynching at Mar
ion of two Negroes was seen in the
address of Attorney General James
M. ogden before the Peru Kiwanis
Club Monday night.
Claude Deeters, the youth who
was shot by the lynching victims,
lived in Paramount and the major
ity of the alleged mob leaders are
said to be residents of Paramount.
Urges pure Justice"
eve must keep the fountain
heads of justice pure and unde-
fled" declared ogden. Beginning
with the grand jury drawing Of
names for it must be above sus-
picion. When certain names are
drawn on grand juries, the people
know that it is not mere coin
cidence or happen So The people
are not deceived; they are neither
totally blind nor sound asleep. They
can tell when something looks
wrong"
Those acquainted with the situa-
ton declared that Ogden's state
ment indicated he knew the three
Paramount men were named for the
jury.
Ogden told the audience that if
people demand clean government
they can get it and pleaded for a
revolt against criminal and lawless
elements.
IF men in my party, or in your
party betray their trust and become
even the weakest link in the chain
of organized crime, they should no
longer be favored or kept in posi-
tons of authority" he said.
Politics Subordinated
eff it ever comes to a choice be-
tween political policies and the
overthrow of our institutions of
freedom, then political policies must
go to the winds"
The encouragement pleaded
emphatically for the election of
honest, sincere men to public office.
"If we do not elect competent men,
free from the corrupting influences
or fear and favor, it is our own
fault he said.
Law and order thrive in that
community where public sentiment
is for law and order. No state can
have better law and order than the
people of that state desire. A COM
munity must cultivate them if it
would reap them" he continued,
There is crime and sin and cor,
ruption in a community because the
people either through choice or in
difference are willing to stand for
it."
Ogden closed with plea for
cIeanness in government and for a
determined and constant fight
against graft and corruption.

Trades Council Delegates
Score ViCtimizing by

Use Of cheap labor in government
construction work by contractors
was condemned today in a resolu-
ton adopted by the Indiana Build

congress to force contractors on
government construction work to
pay fair wage scales.

Dor in the nation and urging the

bidding the sale of prison-made
products on the open market, also

Three resolutions, one requesting
a state plastering code; another,
asking the appropriation Of money
to make effective the bills passed by
congress on unemployment, and a
third, favoring a congressional bill
on the labor injunction, were
adopted by the council.
After mornings discussion, two
resolutions requesting congress to
restrict Mexican immigration and
the importation of Filipino work
men were tabled.

In place Of the resolutions, the
delegates were instructed to have
their local councils inform the state
council of abuses and exploitation
of foreign labor in the state Ac-

the extent with which immigration
is responsible for labor abuse.
