Mad Mississippi Music: Politics Swings To Swing To Swing Votes
Candidates
 Go on Record (Phonographic)
By LARSTON D. TARTAR NEA Service Special Correspondent

NEA Service Special Correspondent
 Jackson, Miss, Aug. 7-Hot swing, with variations, is getting play from Mississippis would-be gover- nors this summer. And the big idea is to warm the voters to this or that candidate.
 Music - Swing, string, orchestral and patriotic - keeps the political pot boiling as never before in the Magnolia State, where for decades political races have been called hot mainly because of the fervor of the candidates and the scorch- ing weather that precedes the Au- gust Democratic primary.
 Now, where the silver tongue" once held sway, the No. 1 "come on" used by politicians is music. Every candidate is using at times some kind of band, quartet, orches- tra or choir to drum up crowds, which, incidentally. seem to prefer more music and less talk. BLARES FROM
 HOUSEWARES
 The gubernatorial--and lesser - candidates are using more and SWingier records on their loud- speaker systems, too, besides the home town talent.
 Lester Franklin, Jackson attorney, who is making his third bid for the governors chair, two of which have been unsuccessful, is using "When My Dream Boat Comes Home" as the song by which he hopes to con- solidate sufficient voting strength under his banners to sweep him into office.
 Thomas L. Bailey, Meridian at- torney, one of the strongest men in the race, has no band, but he has music at almost every meeting at which he speaks. Likewise Paul Johnson, Hattiesburg attorney, mak- ing his third bid for the guberna- torial chair, uses music although it's usually made by volunteers. Martin Sennett Conner of Semi- nary, who was governor from 1932- 36, is going to have a band accom- pany him on his "wind-up" tour, if present plans carry through, his campaigners say.
 HILLBILLY
 ACCOMPANIMENT
 Lieut.. Gov. J. B. Billy" Snyder Clarksdale publisher, who is making a bid for the governors chair, has not hired any musicians, but there has been much music at his meet ings
 Dr. M. w. Can't, Meridian op- tometrist, is the exception, He's the only one who has had no music.
 Going everybody one better, State Senator George P. Richey of Marks has hired a band of hill-billies to | accompany him on every jaunt. And the candidate himself sings the following song, to the accompani- ment of the string band;
 Now, MT. Conner, MT. Conner, we don't love you any more,
 For you gave us a token with
 your promises broken,
 You closed, oh, you closed that open door!
 Now, MT. Johnson, MT. Johnson, we don't love you as friend,
 For so well do we know your love is for the dough
 From the big boys you defend,
 from the big boys you defend
 Now, MT. Franklin, MT. Frank
 lin, we don't love you as of yore,
 For you are 50 willin' to please,
 you might just drift with the breeze,
 In Dream ships far from shore,
 far, far from shore.
 Now, MT. Bailey, MT. Bailey, we
 don't love you as before,
 For the best you can ever do is
 to nod to Governor Hugh,
 Me too, me too" evermore, Me
 too, me too" eyermore.

Pipe down don't tear your hair, Why do you bother your head at all When Johnny's 50 long at the fair.
