Although the organization
backed Representative Main (RO

filed.
Agents of the Townsend Setup,

promising to send it in later.
Trimble said:
eff the organization has not
filed a campaign statement it

Popeye's Poppa in top hat,

if you can imagine thatl
The mornings mail brought
just such a contribution in The
washington Times contest to find
the best likeness of the daddy
of Popeye, the Sailor Man. And
it certainly is a good drawing.
The Park Avenue version of
Popeye's Poppa is one of hun
dreds that keep pouring into The
Times office in every mail. And
it appears that the judges are
going to have a pretty difficult
time to make their selections
when September 26 rolls around.
Under rules of the contest, no
contestant may submit more than
one entry, and it is absolutely
necessary that this rule be OBJ
served; otherwise we shall not be
able to consider the entries of
those submitting more than one.
The contest closes September
26, with all entries in this office
by Wednesday. Address all en-
tries to "Popeye's Poppa," The
washington Times.
Prizes in the contest include

In welcoming independent Dem
ocrats to join the Republican cause
against the New Deal, Landon fol-
lowed the precedent set by the Re-
publican national committee in
washington last spring. The COM
mittee adopted a resolution urg-
ing constitutional Democrats" to
help restore representative govern
ment to the Nation.
In a letter to former Senator
Reed, Landon said:
millions of American citi-
zens are grateful for the help
you gave in the Maine campaign
preceding this weeks elections,
and l wish to join with them in
expressing appreciation.
mot only were your speeches
helpful, but more important,
perhaps, was the personal par
ticipatiOn of a man of your ma
tiOnal reputation"
To former Governor Ely, Ian.
don wrote:
"The expressions Of many
Maine people whom l met dur
ing my visit in that State last
week strengthened my own real
ization of your great help in
the campaign there and the re-
suits Monday confirmed my
observations. May l express to
you my deep appreciation Of
the part you played.
"Our campaign this year has
an objective that goes far be-
yOnd party lines. The partici-
patton of g man of such dis
tinctiOn as yourself has served
to emphasize that point in a
way that will be as effective
in other States as it has proved
itself in Maine"
