Mrs. Shay Minton Is Silent
Partner as Husband Seeks Election

A LMOsT a rubber-stamp
~ Democrat That's the label
that Mrs. Sherman Minton,
wife Of the Democratic candidate
for United States senator from
Indiana. places on herself.
She's an ardent admirer Of
President Franklin d. Roosevelt.
a firm believer in the principles
Of NRA. an earnest part Of the
audience Of the campaign speech
OF her huSband-but she plans TO
take no part IN that campaign.
I'm Just a silent partner she
saws with the same charming
smile which won the heart Of
Shay" Minton when they we're
high school students together.
Mrs. Minton is accustomed TO
hearing her husband speak in
public. She heard him in high
school debates. She listened TO
him in addresses for his fra
ternity. She slipped in amongst
a crowd which he was addressing
several years ago and heard his
speech then without his knowing
that she was present.
But she is enjoying the cam
paign speeches which he makes
now with the same enthusiasm
and pride which she felt in those
first speeches in high school days.
Il
NOES she agree with every
II thing Mr. Minton says?
We'll ves-politically." she con-
cedes, again with a smile. And Mr..
Minton hastens to say that aside
from politics, she's a very agree
able and %cOngenial companion.
I think it would be quite dis
astrous for any married couple to
have differing political views,
Mrs. Minton says seriously. Par
~ticulaTly if the husband is con-
nected in any way with political
work"
Mrs. Minton keeps a s%crapbook
of her husbands publicity and
looks forward to the possibility of
residence in Washington with en-
thusiaSm.
III probably be like Mrs. Sam
uel NJ. Ralston, if Mr.. Minton is
elected, and We do live in Wash
ington. however" she says, re-
ferring to the wife Of the former
senator.
When we were with her the
other evening, she told us of her
first return to Indiana, after NOV
ing TO Washington.
I'm so tired of doing without
home cooking she told her hus-
band. The first thing when 1 get
home. I'm going to make a very
juicy berry pie
L don't know whether I could
qualify to make the pie, but I'll
probably want one"
Questioned about her opinion of
Senator Arthur r. Robinson, Mrs.
MintOn was reticent.
You see. I've never met Mr..
Robinson" she says. L have
read a lot about him in the pa
pers, but-well. you know, they
haven't been very complimentary.
But I read papers which mostly
are Democratic. so that may &C
count for that"

ny PAUL MAY

Special Washington Correspondent Of he Citizen
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Declaring that he
was confused" at his press conference yesterday,
when he said the Overseas bridg project had been
turned down, Secretary Administrator Ickes told
The Citizen correspondent today that he had intend
ed to refer only to the application sponsored by Dr.
George ]. Rosentha and that the application of the
Overseas Road and Toll Bridge District is still under
consideration.
His press conference statement that the Over
seas project was tout as far as getting any money
from public works funds should not be construed as
implying any intention his part to turn down the
state commissions application, Ickes said.
Chances of this application, still on the active list
of the PWA legal financial and engineering boards,
not preiudiced by the rejection of the Rosenha
application the secretary indicated
w. r. Porter, general manager of the bridge
commission said tonight he expects action within the
next week.
Porter revealed that recent supplementary
port from Thomas Mcdonald, chief of the bureau
of public roads, asked by PWA officials in explana-
ton of certain points in his previous report to the
state highway department of Florida was highly
favorable to the bridge project.
'Mr. Mcdonald stated he was in full accord with
the project and unquaIifiedly recommended its APP
prevail" Porter said.
1t was reported in official quarters here tonight
that the secretary's mistake expected to react
favorabIy to the bridge project. by focusing atten
ton on the pending application and its merits
