BOOST TRAYLOR
AS ROOSEVELT
RUNNING MATE
Move to Draft FinanCier
for Race Gains
Momentum.
BY LYLE C. WILSON
United Press Sts6 Correspondent

WASHINGTON, June IL. - A
movement is under way today to
select Melvin Alvah Traylor, Chi
cago banker and one-time city clerk
of Hillsboro, Tex, as running mate
for Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt,
if the latter is nominated for
President at the Democratic ma
tional convention.
Word has reached Washington
that Roosevelt would welcome Tray
lor's nomination. Considerable mo-
mentum is said to have developed
behind the draft Traylor" move
ment. There are circumstances
suggesting that some of the impe-
tus is coming from Albany, N. Y,
where Roosevelt is devising conven-
ton strategy.
Named as Dark Horse
Traylor has dark horse presi-
Dental status in his own right.
Since 1925 he has been president of
the First National bank in Chicago.
He is we'll and favorably known in
the east. During this winter of con-
tinued emergency financial legisla-
ton he has appeared frequently be-
fore senate committees.
Governor Roosevelt is said to feel
that Traylor's nomination for vice.
president would consid crab y
strengthen the Democratic ticket in
the east.
All concerned admit that RooSe-
welt is weak in the eastern part Of
the country. His campaign man
ayers openly discuss the possibility
of electing him without carrying his
own state, New York.
If Roosevelt and Traylor we're
nominated, there would be consider
able emphasis, the United Press is
informed, on the latter's financial
genius.
Active in Power Firms
Capital Democrats have been told
Roosevelt if elected would invite
Traylor to participate even more
fully than his predecessors in cabi-
AACO A11CCVA14SS dAAQ C11CAG WOu1u NC oil
implication that Roosevelt Tray
Tor administration would be rather
largely guided in fiscal affairs by the
advice of the latter.
Whether and how much Traylor's
nomination would relieve Roosevelt
of opposition on the issue of electric
power is not evident. In some quar-
tiers it is reported here that Traylor
would embrace the power policies
of Roosevelt.
The power industry generally con-
Siders Roosevelt somewhat radical
on this issue, in comparison with
its own philosophy of the relation
ship between power and govern
ment.
Traylor is a director of General
Electric and the National Broad
eating companies and through that
latter dictatorship is in contact with
the Radio Corporation of America
group.

WOMEN DRYS
AFFIRM FAITH
IN PROHIBITION
Small but Undaunted Band
Launch Campaign as
Convention NearS.
BY RAY BLACK
United Press stan Correspondent

CHICAGO, June ia band OF
earnest women, undaunted by the
tide of sentiment against prohibi-
ton, launched a counter attack to-
day in the name of "hcme, church
and our boys and girls"
There was something Spartan in.
their bearing as they met in Third
Presbyterian church, only few
blocks from the Chicago stadium
where the Republican national
convention opens Tuesday. They
came to what had been advertised
as a great loyalty convention.
But where advance publicity pre-
dicted there would be hundreds
there were only scores.
What they lacked in numbers,
they made up for in steadfastness
of their stand.
Recite Statistics
National leaders in the dry cause
sounded war cries against the vets.
recited statistics and urged a bone
dry plank in the national party plat
forms.
But it was the women in the rank
and file, the mothers, wives and
widows from the middle west who
revealed just how millions of other
women in the country feel about the
prohibition issue and why they feel
as they do.
There was Mrs. w. w. life, Bev-
erly Hills, Ill, the mother of three
sons and a daughter. She said:
Liquor hasn't ruined my chill
dren; they have so far escaped. I
think prohibition has protected
them. That is why I lie awake
nights in dread that the law will be-
repealed"
Only a Sober Nation
Mrs. William Harrison Cade, chair
man of the Illinois committee for
law enforcement:
IF there is anything worth believ-
ing in and fighting for, it is the
American Constitution. The Amer
lean flag can fly only over a sober
nation"
Mrs. K. G.. Norberg, Chicago:
Il hope we never go back to the
old saloon days"
Miss Elizabeth Smith, Oak Park:
If prohibition is repealed, it will
be a terrible thing for youth-and
for older folk, too. Things would
be worse than they were before the
law was enacted"
DR.. F. Scott Mcbride, general
superintendent of the Anti-Saloon
League, in his keynote speech. "a
call to arms" declared a repeal
plank in the Republican platform
would be a colossal blunder" and
that conditions in these times of
depression would be much worse il
drunkenness and rioting were added
to unemployment and poverty
through legal sale of liquor"

LOCAL CITIZENS
VIEW WORK ON
HIGHLANDS
Business Men Make Trip to
See Activity Which Solves
Major Problem of Water
Supply

Twenty-Five or thirty local bus
mess men were taken to the High
lands this noon to view the work
on the rehabilitation Of the irri-
CATION system. After some eigh-
teen years of work on the part
of the Commercial club, the job
has finally been gotten under way
and the event was considered of
enough Importance to warrant the
special trip.
Nearly hundred men are en-
gagged in various sections of the
work, which when completed will
satisfactorily solve the big prob
lem of sufficient water supply for
the Highlands. The government is
spending $640,OO0 in the work,
which includes the building of a
dam, canal and power house at
Prosser to generate the electricity
for pumping at the local plant.
Eventually, the sale of the surplus
power generated will repay til e
construction costs as well as the
local costs.
One or two of the men who made
the trip this noon were compare
tive newcomers and were surprised
at the extent of the development
on the Highlands and of the work
which the government had under
taken. Other men, who were more
or less in touch with the affairs
were surprised at the magnitude
of the work.

Pioneer Woman Dies of
Heart Attack Tonight

Mrs Nellie Shaughnessy, one Of

became owner of the Kennewick
Courier. After his death the pa
per was sold and Mrs. Shaugh-

W.S.C. Poultry Expert
To Be Here March IL

urday, March IL, at which time a
poultry brooding meeting will be
held at the Chamber of Commerce
rooms at Kennewick, beginning at
$50 in the morning and extending

producers of the lower valley an
opportunity to get first hand in
formation from Mr.. Buchanan on
this topic.
It has been q couple of years
since Mr.. Buchanan has met with
poultrymen of the lower valley and
we trust that poultrymen may turn
out in goodly numbers to attend
this meeting. This meeting has
been, specially arranged for this
section because of the fact that the
poultry school is always held at
Prosser where the larger number
of poultrymen live.
