SPEECH TONIGHT IS
TO BE HEADL|NER
Mcdonald Supporters Hope
To Fill Raleigh Audi
forum to Brim
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In The Sir Walter Hotel,
Ry J. 4! BASKERVILLE

Raleigh, May 26.-The speech which
DR.. Ralph W. Mcdonald will make
here tonight in the interest of his
campaign for the Democratic nominal
ton for governor, is regarded as the
most ambitious of his campaign, since
he is going to attempt to fill the
Memorial Auditorium, which seats al
most 5000 people. Despite the fact
that the Wlnston-Salem professor is
conceded to have the best set of stage
managers and ccenery Shutters of any
of the candidates, experienced poll
ticianS here are wondering how he
can possibly hope to fill the auditor
ium when all most Of the others have
tried to do has been to fill the court
room in the court house, which seats
only ahou! 500 instead of 5000.
Mcdonald managers, however, main
tain that their candidate knows how
to do things in a big way, that he
has been doing things in a big way,
that he is going to do something
which all the Old timers have SAID
could not be done. namely, win the
nomination for governor--and that fill
ing 5000 seats in the auditorium here
Is going to 0e an easy matter. Dele
cations from at least 20 other coun-
ties are going to help fill the 5000
seats in the audito, iun The reason it
was decided to hold tonight's McDon-
aid rally in the auditorium instead of
in the court house was because the
meeting just mushroomed into a
whopper," his headquarters said today
Before DR.. Mcdonald starts speak
ing at 7:45, a McDonald-for-Go
parade will sc held down Fayetteville
street. with the Raleigh high school
band leading the procession. At the
auditorium, this band will be joined
by the Modern Woodmen's band of
Wendell. When the program outside
is over DR.. z. M. Caviness, of Raj
eigh, will preside and Thomas w.
Ruffin. Raleigh, lawyer, will intro
duce Dr. Mcdonald, who has indicat-
ed he will devote much of his speech
to outlining his policies with regard
to appointive officials and his prom
Use to "clean house" in most of the
State departments here by kicking
out the present appointive officials
and putting in new set of Mcdonald
followers.
