Gov. Aft NJ. Landon and Alfred
f. Smith claSped hands in a red
carpeted room last night and
agreed to make common cause
against the New Deal.
The one-time Democratic preSi-
dental candidate, grinning wide
ly and putting a cigar, endorsed
Landon'S candidacy and said:
"He is very clcar-headed, very
much to the point, very sensible.
| always knew he was all right
and this meeting confirms it,
1t was the first time they had
met and Landon showed his pleas
urc in winning the support OF the
former titular head of the Demo
cratic party. Their meeting took
place after LandOn, waving his
battered campaign hat, rode thru
cheering throngs here in PreSi-
dent Roosevelt'S home state.
Standing in an open automo
bile, the Republican presidential
nominee rode at a crawling pace
through the heart of Manhattan
at dusk, as he opened his two-day
campaign to put the presidents
home state into the Republican
column on election day.
He arrived, officially, to see
New YorkS' Alfred +. Smith, to
meet with insurgent Democracy'S
John w. Davis, TO map final plans

But actually he marked his ar
rival by bringing the flavor of
the Kansas prairies to Fifth ave

lis battered old campaign hat at
ems of thousands who cloggcd

lew who booed--as he crossed the
city through which President
Roosevelt had driven an hour ear

He stood, bareheaded, in an
open automobile on the drive
across Broadway, up Fifth ave-
nue., along 42nd Street from

Judge Webester's Ruling In Case
OF Fuller VS.. Racing Association

Is such that | must hold upon this
point that the plaintiff has sustain
ed the burden of proof that is re-
quired of him Mr.. Lehr hastestitied
positively that that is not the
policy of the defendant, that there
is no such rule, and that this is the
first time they ever had any trou-
bic of this character If that is so
it is unfortunate that it had to hap
pen, but hat does not destroy plain
tiffs right to recover 1t may af-
feet the question of damages.
This plaintiff evidently has had
fine positions, has good reputa-
ton and standing and evidently Is
a high grade colored man. That is
all the more reason why it is too
bad that it happened to a man like
that But | do not believe that the
damages are heavy. l think there
is a violation and | think the
plaintiff is entitled to recover. His
past positions and character ana
standing have been such that
do not believe these newspaper ar
ticles harmed him. | presume that
they caused him annoyances, but
/ have my doubts as to whether
they really injured him any; Ger
tainly not with the colored people,
and | doubt if it did with the white
people. So that | do not think that
this is a case where there should
be any large sum awarded. | think
the case should be decided just the
way | am deciding it; that he
comes within this statute; they had
no right to make him leave that
box because he was colored; that
they did make him leave because
he was colored, and they had no
right to do it. He had just as much
right there as Mr.. Brusstardid
They were both from the Prose
cutting Attorneys office, one white
and one colored, and they had
equal rights in that box. He was
wrongfully elected, or compelled
to leave, and is entitled to dam
ages.
81 think, therefore, | will give
the plaintiff judgment for $4,000
damages and $4,000 COSTS"

McManus, or that the seats were
given to him by McManus, | do not
think changes the legal situation
any. He was there rightfully and
under the circumstances testified
to could not be elected because he
was colored. In other words, in
order to come within this status it
is not necessary that he buy the
tickets himself and pay for it with
money out Of his pocket McManus
had evidently purchased the box
for the season and he would have
a right to present the tickets to his
friends or anybody whom he de-
sired and these friends, in turn,
would have right to invite some
one to accompany them and this
some one might be a colored
person. The defendant would have
no right to make an agreement with
McManus, or with anybody else,
limiting the guests or persons who
might use this box, or rather ex-
Guiding persons who might use
this box, and as long as the plan
tiff was rightfully there either as
a guest of McManus or Of Brus-
star he would have the same rights
that would go to the holder OF any
one OF these seats i'm this box, and
he wuld have the rights conferred
upon him by this statute, and, as
we have just seen, which rights he
had even before the statute at
common law in this state.
'The case of Goldsberry VS..
Kamachos, 255 Michigan, page 647,
raises a question which the court
holds is a question of fact, holding
at the same time that the instruc-
ton was proper. SO that we may
take it from that decision that the
law is that if an employee, without
any orders from the employer or
owner, without any knowledge on
the part of the owner, purely from
his own accord, or even against
the orders and wishes of the
owner, elected a colored persn,
there wuld be no liability, but II
done with the knowledge or con-
sent of the owner there would be
liability. That seems to be what we
gather from this case and whether
or not il is done in accordance
with the knowledge or wishes OF
the owner Is a question of fact.
There is no question but what
the plaintiff was elected. This case
being tried without a jury, | must
decide this one point which the
court said in the Kamachos case is
question of fact. l think from all
the testimony in the case l must
decide this point in favor of the
plaintiff. While there is dispute
