Wi|Ikie Remark
Works Administrator
RidicuIes Nominee
In Telegram

Wendell Willkie was under long
range bompardment from Washing
ton today as the war of words over
the presidential election continued
unabatedAbut relatively unnoticed.
On Capitol Hill, Senator Norris of
Nebraska, honorary chairman of a
pro-Roosevelt organization of inde-
pendents, belabored the Republican
nominee for saying that no duty
had ever come into his life, even in
the service of his country. which
has so appealed to my sense of

love of mankind as this, my obliga-

There you have from Mr.. Willkie," :"
Senator Norris declared, "the very
heart of his philosophy. He puts
loyalty to the power trust above
loyalty to anything else in life. even
to his country in time of war"
Accusing Senator Norris of "dema-
eoguery of the cheapest sort" Sem
ator Bridges, Republican, of New
Hampshire said in a statement that
the Nebraskan had twisted Mr..
Wilkes remark.
Mr.. Wilkes war record is too
well known to need recounting, in

said

Democrat in this crowd who learned
his democracy from the school Of
Andrew Jackson will be for me
rather than for the opposition.
If there is any Democrat in this
crowd who does not believe in CEN
tralized power and who follows the
Democratic leaders Of the pre- Civil
War period. who believed so strong
ly that power should be decentral-
lied that they were willing to tight
a war about it, he will vote for me
because I believe thatApower should
be decentralized somewhat.
Lets come down more to mod
ern times. Grover Cleveland, who
had at one time reasonable stand
ing as a Democrat, believed so
strongly against the concentration
of power in a Federal Government
that he even vetoed relief bills. Now,
I won't do that. I don't believe in
that. But that's how strongly he
was convinced that it would destroy
our liberties if we concentrated au-
thority in Washington. So no
Cleveland Democrat can vote
against me.
"Cleveland's son testified the other
day in Washington that his father
was invited in 1896 to seek the DEM
ocratic nomination in order to pre-
vent the nomination of William
Jennings Bryan, and that his father
declined because his father said that
no man should be President Of the
United States three times. So any
Cleveland Democrat In Dubuque will
not vote against me.
Now. If you come to William Jen-
nings Bryan, you recall that he at
one time had some popularity in
these parts and further West as a
Democrat. William Jennings Bryan
spoke In eloquent terms time and
time again against the concentration
of power in Washington, and one of
his most eloquent speeches was
against a third term. So there is
no Bryan Democrat in Dubuque who
could logically vote against me.
Now we come to another Demo-
crat who at one time had some
standing. That is Woodrow Wilson.
The basis of Woodrow Wilson'S doc
trine was that the only thing the
State should do in governing men
was to see that they did not prey
upon each other. And Woodrow
Wilson made strong statements time
and time again-time without num-
ber-that whenever the State sought
to control the destinies of man. our
liberties were in danger. So, no
Wilson Democrat in Dubuque can
vote against me-
I'm 1882 there was another Demo-
crat, and his name was Franklin
Roosevelt. In 1882 he was anxious
to organize independent groups for
his candidacy for President Of the
United States and he made a speech
in New York to them He explained
to them that the value of following
him was not in himself but in the
cause he represented He wanted to
emphasize that point. He took a

Senator Vandenberg, Republican of

here last night the Nation can t
wait much longer for a guiding
genius who knows how to run a
public utility"
The Government Of this coun-
try is the greatest public utility in
the world" said the Michigan Sen
ator. But it hasn't been run as a
public utility.
1T has been run as helter-
skelter, pell-mell, political crap bag
to suit the shifting Whims of one
so-called indispensable man, and
to feed the greatest political bu-
reacracy that ever fastened itself
on an otherwise free people
If any private concern were to
Issue bonds on such a financial
statement as hard-pressed Uncle
Sam must make, the New Deals

miscreantS into iail.
We can't wait much longer for
a guiding genius who knows how
to run a public utility; who has
demonstrated that he knows how
to produce more public service at
less public cost; who has proven
that he can turn red ink into black
AID who can tcl.e Is eff the road

and mass happiness.

Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1940-10-17

The Executive Council of the
American Federation of Labor
announced that members of di-
rectly affiliated local unions
who volunteer or are drafted for
service in the nations military
forces will be exempted from
dues payments and will retain
their good union standing dur
ing their period of service.
In taking this action, the Ex-
ecutive Council followed a pre-
cedent established by the 1917
convention of the American Fe-
deration of Labor which voted a
similar exemption to members
who served in the World War.
All City Central Bodies and
State Federations of Labor will
set up machinery to assist draf-
tees to regain their former po-
sitions in industry, wherever
possible, after completion of
their year of military training.
"The American Federation of
Labor is determined to do every
thing in it's power to protect the
status and promote the welfare
of those who are called upon to
serve our country in it's time of
emergency" President William

Newark lost a great player
last Friday night. Art Davis,
one of the best high school tack
les, becomes twenty years old
this Saturday and therefore will
not be eligible for further schol-
astic participation in athletics.
Davis ended his high school ath-
letic career in brilliant fashion.
He played the full sixty minutes
and Coshocton knew it. Davis
opened giant holes for the Wild
cat backs, recovered fumbles,
and threw Redskin ball trotters
for huge losses. The Newark
band spelled out "CHS" and then
the lights in the stadium were
turned off and each member of
the band had a light on their
person. The "CHS" stood out
very plainly while the band
played the popular song hit,

Cant Get Indiana Off My
Mind" Coshocton made 80 yards
on a double-reverse which was
beautiful to watch and it COM
pletely fooled the Cats. How
ever Bill Craig threw a Redskin
for 30-yard loss on the next
play.
AS result of Fridays win
Newark remained on top of the
C. o. L. standings with Mariet-
ia and GAINESVILLE. The Blue Dew
lis from GAINESVILLE trampled
Lancaster, 1876, and the Mariet-
ia Tigers loped over Cambridge,
$40, in other league games Fri
day night for their second wins
in as many league starts.
The Tigers come to Newark
this Friday night to meet the
Cats and celebrate homecoming.
The game should be the best of
the local season. Neither the Tt
gers or the Cats have lost
league contest and each must
wiz to stay in the C. O. L. cham
pionship fight.
Time and time again Newark
teams have fallen to Tiger
teams. Marietta beat Cambridge
"a to 0, and Newark defeated
the Brownies only ID to 10.
However, if Newark plays foot
ball against Marietta as they
played against Coshocton, the
Wildcats need not worry-if.

Wildcats Set Good
COShOctOn Eleven
Back On Heels
By BOB WORTH

Last Friday night in the stadi-
UNI our Wildcats really played a
wonderful game of football. The
Cats set a good Coshocton team
back on it's heels from the very
start of the game. The Redskins
never put on substantial
march. Coshocton's only real
scoring bid came in the last few
minutes of the game, but they
couldn't score and Newark re-
mained unscored upon on their
home field.
While the Wildcats were stop
ping the Coshocton attack the
Redskins were having a terrible
time stopping the fast, hard
charging thrusts of Gibson, Dav-
idson and Walsh. These three ace
backs gained most of Newark's
1913 yards by rushing. Coshocton
gained only 81 yards by rushing.
The Wildcats had net yardage
of 219 yards and the Redskins
had 104 yards. Penalty after
penalty cost the Wildcats a to-
tai of 80 yards.
The Wildcats scored in the
second quarter and lead at the
half 6 to 0. Starting from Gosh
octon's 41-yard line Newark
scored in four plays. Harold
Gibson skipped over for the first
touchdown on a pretty run from
the 15-yard line on a reverse to
the left.
Coshocton tried a fake punt
in the third quarter, but fumbI-
ed and Davidson recovered on
the Coshocton Is as the quarter
ended. At the start of the fourth
quarter, Newark scored again as
left end Bob Smith scored on
an end run. Bill Craig kicked
the placement.
Wintermute tackled Burklew
as the Coshocton back faded
deep in Wildcat territory to
throw a pass and he fumbled.
Art Davis, the ever alert tackle,
pounced on the ball and Newark
had the pigskin on the Redskins
8-yard line. After Newark was
penalized Is yards, the elusive
Art Walsh whipped around right
end and scored Newark's final
points.
