EN- ROUTE WITH GOVERNOR
ROOSEVELT, Sept. 81 GN.S0
Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt cam
paigned through the Southwest tA
day, a country stricken by econ
omic depression and political dis
content.
Refreshed by a days rest on an
Arizon~ cattle ranch, which turned
out to be almost anything but
rest, the Democratic nominee
was headed today through New
Mexico toward Colorado for a
days respite at Colorado Springs
New r-cxicO Friendly
In New Mexico Governor Roose,
welt found himself in friendly
territory. The Republican State
organization is split wide open
Senator Bronson Cutting .,as
bolted the organization and a
third party ticket is in the max
ing which cannot help but re-
bound to Democratic advantage
in November.
Governor Roosevelt was told
that he may count upon New
Mexico's three electoral votes. He
was told the same thing in
Arizona, where he spent all of
yesterday fraternizing with The
ranchers of this great South
western country, who gathered
at Mrs. Jack Greenway's Quarter
Circle Double x Ranch.
The Democratic nominee had
q thoroughly fine time at TIE
Greenway ranch. He checked his
dignity at Williams, where he left
his special train, and for "a hours
he entered into the life and spirit
of ranch life.
Our People Come First
When he was called upon to
make the inevitable speech, he
was asked what he proposed to
do, if elected, concerning the
importation of Argentine, Mexican
and Australian beef into this
country. His reply was tina!
"such questions" need not be
answered at this time, but ne
asserted with great positiveness
that as President he would take
care of our own people first"
His tariff view with respect to
the West and it's products will be
elaborated upon in the speech
which he will deliver in Sioux
City, Iowa, on Thursday. Cover.
nor Roosevelt plans there to-com-
bine a tariff and agriculture
speech which will answer many
of the questions which have been
asked hj~~ ON his invasion Of
the West.
It became fairly definite today
that the Western invasion is to be
followed by tour of the South
in addition to the Middle west
While the South is consi1G 'ed
to be safely Democratic territory
this year, nevertheless the Demo
cratic nominee has been told
that a personal appearance south
of the Mason-Dixon line will
clinch it.
Consequently, the present out
look i: that about a week after
thu return to Albany, on October
3, Governor Roosevelt will take
the road again, his itinerary
carrying him as far south as
Georgi and thence into Ten
nessee, Kentucky, In dia n a
Southern 'nois anG Missouri.
It is probt. Ole that North Caro-
lima also will be visited. The ole
NTH State was one - those
four southern States which boltec
AL Smith four years ago and cast
its electoral vote for Hoover.
Plans Still Indefinite
Plans for the Southern anC
Mi6western trip, however, are
still in the incubator stage. They
. are subject to change without
notice.
= Governor Roosevelt left Arizona
during the night, we'll satisfied
with Democratic prospects anC
with Democratic conditions as he
found them. He left Williams
shortly before midnight with his
first scheduled stop at Albu
querque, N. NJ. this morning. Moor
