strategy of both the Hoey and Ora
ham managers from now on is to
keep Dr. Mcdonald so worried that
he will have to do more explaining
than attacking. And if they can sue
coed in bringing out additional things
from time to time which DR.. McDon-
aid will have to explain, or attempt
to explain, such as his vote for the
bill which would have increased the
license tax on hotels and imposed the
sales tax on both rooms and meals in
hotels, it is agreed that they should
be able to get him pretty well tan
gled up within then ext four weeks.
For a political fight is not unlike a.
dog fight, in that it is greatly in
doubt until one of the dogs has to
stop and scratch his fleas-then he
is out of it.
The idea from now on among the
Hoey and Graham strategists is to
keep putting new and vigorous fleas
on DR.. Mcdonald so fast and fire.
quently that he will be kept so busy
scratching that he will not have much
time to do anything else. They are
convinced that their discovery of his
VOLC 1OI tIC 0cIACS IdA OH nOC0l meals
and rooms was whole batch of fleas
and that his attempts to explain this
vote have only served to scatter the
fleas more thoroughly. They also
maintain that other effective fleas
which they have transferred to his
political hide recently has been the
fact that he voted to include Forsyth
county in the Pasquotank liquor bill
until a record roll call vote was de-
manded, when he switched ands voted
against the amendment It is being
intimateds at Hoey and Graham head
quarters that whole flock of train
ed fleas is being held in reserve for
effective use from now until June 6
and that by then DR.. Mcdonald will
not have time to do anything else but
scratch.
Mcdonald Has Tricks.
The Mcdonald managers maintain,
however, that in the first place the
Mcdonald hide is so thick and hard
that it is impervious to the fleas be-
ing Tipped onto him by the opposi-
ton. In the second place, they main
tain that for every flea Messers. Hoey
and Graham can release in the Nc
Donald fur, that he can release from
five to ten fleas and ticks into their
fur and hence keep them scratching
harder than they can keep him. They
further contend that DR.. McDonald's
"New DeaT' insect powder and flea
eradicator will quickly exterminate
any fleas which Messers. Hoey and
Graham can plant on him.
Yet there is no doubt that there Is
not as much optimism and cocksure-
ness in the atmosphere in Mcdonald
headquarters here as there was two
weeks ago, and there is much less
talk about his winning the nomina-
ton with a clear majority over all
