Reelection Necessary
To Avoid Dictator,
Senator Says

OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 10 U.N.S0.
Definitely in the race for reelec-
ton on an independent ticket, U.
S. Senator George Norris today
set his campaign keynote as ere
election of President Roosevelt to
save the nation from ultimate
dictatorship"
Senator Norris last night in his
first capmaign speech said:
"The Presidents opponents
are merely throwing dust in
the peoples eyes. They are try
ing to save their dividends, the
profits they have made and
continue to make because Of
the economic power they WELD"
"I would like to retire from
public life if it would be posi-
ble," was the veteran Senator's
only comment on his campaign
for reelection, which he under
took after 10000 Nebraska voters
signed petitions to place his name
on the ballot.
OF Governor Landon he said:
Governor LandOn was an un-
born before he was suddenly
launched into the campaign.
Now he has confined his criti-
cism to meaningless generali-
ties.
"He has lacked either the can
dor or the courage to take up the
measures which make up the
"New Deal" and tell the people
wherein they are wrong and
what he would put in their place
if he should be elected"
Landon is definitely on record
for repeal of bank deposit insur-
ance, Norris charged. and in op-
posing the corporation surplus tax,
he opposes plugging a loophole
by which rich men avoid payment
of income tax.

 He has been engaged by Lothar Mendes, American director now heading his own British production company. for the lead role in a film temporarily titled Moonlight Son ata."
 Work on the picture will start in July with Mendes himself in the dl- rector's chair.

 'Nor will the film be merely the means of permitting Paderewski to play his piano from start to finish The story permits an honest DOT trayal of the effect of a great mu- sician on the lives of several other people.
 Tt was the story in fact which had much to do with persuading Paaderewski to come to the films His music will be there but it will at all times be purposeful
 Film people here are confident that Paderewski, with his striking appearance, the amazing head and deepset kindly eyes, will have his personality enhanced by the films, His age is not regarded as a draw back and no film tests were made
