his speech" declared Edwin E. Thav-
ley. Denton painter We were
afraid he would. I'm certain now
what Mr.. Roosevelt did say will help
Representative Lewis in this section. "
r. Emmett Raughley of Harrington,
DEL who owns 1900 acres of property
on Maryland's Eastern Shore, said he
didn't think the Presidents invasion"
would "either help Davey Lewis, or do
him any harm"
One OF Mr.. Raughley's neighbors-
S. c. Hopkins-expressed the opinion,
however, the Presidents trip Should
help Mr.. Lewis"
A farmer. J. w. Fleetwood of Eas-
ton. had this to say: Il think the
Presidents speech was all right in
every respect. 1t certainly ought to
help Davey Lewis"
And another farmer, Herman Zeit-
Ter of West Harrington, about u miles
from Denton, commented: Well, the
President hasn't given up fighting yet.
He doesn't seem to be discouraged even
in defeat
James Temple. Denton auctioneer,
said he believed the Presidents visit
would make good many votes on
the Eastern Shore for Mr.. Lewis. I'm
sure the President has changed the
minds of the poor class of people on
the shore who misunderstood him."
Viola Alburger of Denton admitted
she had not taken the political situa
ton seriously but said the President
made swell" speech, and as a stu
dent Of human reaction, she believes
it should change the minds of some
Tydings supporters.
1T was very good and very sensible
speech" remarked w. r. Frampton,
a Caroline County farmer, "and I'm
sure what the President said about
Representative Lewis should help him.
j. A. Willoughby, another Caroline
County farmer, declared if the Presi-
dents speech doesn't aid Mr.. Lewis,
1T will take more than the President
OF the United States to do it,"
Wonderful" Agree 3 Women.
THE Presidents speech was per-
fectly wonderful remarked Mrs. r.
M. Logan of Kent. And two of her
nelghbors with her at the time-Mrs,
Leonard Wilson and Mrs. Henry
Stevens, agreed that Mrs. Logan ex-
pressed their sentiment, too.
B. T. Sockrider 816 C street South
east. Washington. D. c., who was in
the crowd, said he approved" what
Mr.. Roosevelt said, but at the same
time expressed the belief it would not
help Mr. Lewis candidacy much" on
the Eastern Shore, where he declared
he is familiar. more or less" with
the people who live there.
Il listened to every word the Presi-
dent satd.' declared Charles H. Willis,
retired Caroline County lumber
dealer, "and I believe everything he
said. And what he said about Mr.
Lewis should help him down here on
the Shore
Il think the applause when the
President mentioned the name of Rep
resentative Lewis should indicate that
some OF these people will vote for Mr..
Lewis said L. Steven Brown of
Denton.
Seen as Aid to Tydings.
A newspaperwoman connected with
several Eastern Shore papers, who re-
fused to reveal her identity for publi-
cation, said she knew the sentiment
OF the people in that section very
WE'LL and made this comment:
The better class of people on the
Eastern Shore are furious over the
Presidents invasion They think it
took a lot of nerve for the President
to come in here to tell them how to
vote. Personally, I believe Mr.. Roose-
velt's trip will help Senator Tydings
more than it will MIR. Lewis" The
woman said she is Republican.
And newspaperman who writes for
an Eastern Shore paper, who likewise
refused to allow his name to be used,
commented;
THE President is doing more harm
to Representative Goldsborough than
he Is to Senator Tydings"
