By the Associated Press.

OKLAHOMA CITY, July l2.-okla-
homa Democrats, urged by President
Roosevelt to nominate liberal candi.
dates, wrote their answer on ballots
IN today's primary.
When the votes are counted, Mr..
Roosevelt will be able to check the
effect Of the pat on the back he gave
Senator Elmer Thomas, seeking q
third term.
The election was the first test at the
polls since the President started his
Western tour through States where
administration Senators are up for re.
nomination. He also has given verbal
pats on the back to Senator's Barkley
OF Kentucky, the Democratic leader:
Bulkley of Ohio and Caraway Of
Arkansas.
Near Record Vote Forecast.
A record-approaching 800, 900 Demo-
cratic votes was forecast, because of
intense interest In the senatorial and
gubernatorial races, in which MIR.
Roosevelt took hand.
In his Oklahoma City speech three
days ago. the President said Senator
Thomas had been of enormous help"
to the administration. TIE added a
kind remark for another senatorial
aspirant, E. w. Marland, New Deal
Governor. but Senator Thomas claimed
the stronger favor. Mr.. Roosevelt
called him my old friend"
The President had no such back-pat
for Representative Conner Smith, the
third senatorial candidate. Mr. Smith
voted against the Presidents reorgan-
ization bill and the administration
farm bill.
Ill Words for Murray.
Without mentioning names. Mr..
Roosevelt cracked down on former
Gov. w. H. Alfalfa Bill" Murray. q
candidate for the office he left In 1895,
Mr.. Murray opposed the 1892 Roose-
velt nomination and has fought the
New Deal since
Without referring to the President.
Mr.. Murray said in an address last
night:
If it Cthe governorship) Is an ap-
pointive Office, don't want it. don't
want to be carpet bagger any time,
anywhere"
Opposing former Gov Murray were
four acknowledged New Dealers
w. S. Key, former State works
progress administrator; Leon c.
Phillips, former speaker of the State
House; former Gov. Iron Jack"
Walton. and Ira Finley, president Of
the Veterans of Industry Of America.
All five claimed victory. Mr. Key
was permitted to ride the Presidents
train, but Mr.. Phillips forces in
timated the ride was "thumbed" and
belittied It's significance.
Representatives Seek REELECTION.
With the exception Of Conner Smith,
all of the States nine Democratic
Representatives sought denomination.
A Statewide Republican grass

Guymon attorney and former State
| Senator. for nomination as Governor,

WOMAN,S REALM
Glorifing Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service stan Writer

NEA Service Stan Writer
 It's a mistake for any girl to work hard to improve her figure, hair, skin and her taste in clothes but ignore completely the fact that she has an improperly placed, un- pleasant voice. Because. no matter how attractive she is, unless her voice has fairly soothing effect on others, they just aren't going to listen to her--not for long anyway
 To say that a girl has nice voice doesn't necessarily mean that she has low voice. It can be high and still be pleasant to the ear. It ought to be full, how ever. And the person who does not breathe properly simply cannot have full voice. Unless the cells in the lower part of the lungs are made to do their work, the voice will lack quality of tone.
 Therefore, one good way to be- gin voice -imrovement campaign is to do breathing exercise reg uarly until you breathe correctly all of the time without thinking about it. Simply press your palms against your sides Just above your Waistlinc. Now take breath so deep that hands are forced wider apart. In other words, try to expand your chest at the sides instead of in front. Exhale vigorously. pressing hands into your body as the air leaves your lungs.
 Do practice speaking slowly and enunciating correctly Nothing is worse on anyone's nerves than hay ing to listen to a woman who rat ties on, sllirring words together and speaking 50 rapidly that half she says can't be understood at all
 The exercise to correct bad speech is AS simple as the breath ing exercise that will tend to i'm prove the voice. Just read aloud for fifteen minutes every day. Go to your room, close the door, then read. Listen to yourself and try to decide whether you have a habit of raising your voice at the end of every sentence or just what you do that probably annoys others. Any way, from now until fall do your breathing exercises for five minutes sometime during the day and read aloud to yourself for fifteen min utes every day. You'll see definite improvement in both voice and speech long before September first.
