none, will get by the coming Congress.

OVERSIGHT HABIT

|, seems that the old guard of the Democratic
party of North Carolina is adopting pohcy OF
ignoring those who supported Sandy Graham ana
Dr. Mcdonald in the primary fight
One would think that considering the loyal man.
ner in which the Graham and Mcdonald supporters
lined up behind the state ticket in the recent cleo
ton, that the astute leaders would at least make
show of forgetting and forgiving.
However, Chairman Winborne in naming spe-
cial group to study the North Carolina laws pre-
paratory to making recommendations Of such re-
forms as may be deemed necessary when the Gen.
eral Assembly meets, apparently has confined his
selections to men who stood steadfastly by Hoey
in the summer fight for nomination.
This leads the Statesville Daily to comment with
rare logic and pertinence, it seems to The Record
But if Mr.. Winborne really wanted to find the
faults in the election laws, he should remember
that the Mcdonald and Graham forces were more
inefficient in uncovering them after the primary
voting, and the search could have been shortened
by including one or two from these ranks. 1t Is
probable, too, that one ex-offico Republican could
have contributed tremendously to the cause. But
of course that is unthinkable.
But these things do not matter over-much The
main thing as the Greensboro News says, is that
the personnel of the group is not as significant as
the recognition by titular leaders that all is not
perfect within their partisan ranks and that poll
tics, if nothing ese calls for weighing and over
hauling
Chairman Winborne has been mighty slow in
naming his committee, but that won't matter either
At single meeting, with Major McLendon attend
ing they can jot down long list of corrections
that need 10 be made The chances are too, that
the legislature will be too busy with other things
to poster much about flaws in the election laws

BROWBEATING is THE PLAN

success upon browbeating some several OF

any too secure.-Greensboro News.
Yet. that is exactly what the law does

forcing its acceptance by the States and
the radical lawyers employed by the gov

HOW THE RADICALS VOTED

Newspapers are still discussing the small
vote received in the national election by
the four radical candidates for President
Lemke, Thomas, Browder and Aiken-ali
four together polled less than million
votes.
The newspapers are greatly interested in
the disappearance of large part of the
countryS radical vote and profess lack
of understanding of what happened. That
is bunk Every newspaper in the United
States is fully aware of what happened in
the election.
The greater part by far of the radical
vote of the country was cast for Roosevelt.
That left the four radical candidates out
in the cold as far as the voting was con-
eerned.
