CAMPAIGN TOUR
REACHES RALEIGH

RALEIGH, Oct. TO- Up The
Democratic party's campaign tour
swung into Raleigh today for a
Fourth Congressional district rally
in the Wake county courthouse and
heard a number of candidates and
party leaders urge renewed energy
on the part of workers to get voters
to participate in the Nov. gen.
eral election.
Rep. Harold D. Cooley, appear
ing in his home district, told the
rally that this is perhaps the most
important election this nation will
ever hold. Problems we now face
are so great as to transcend all
party lines and to rise above party
prejudices and jealousies."
1.-THE Republican candidate for
president ha s embraced about
every achievement of the last IL
years Of Democratic rule and every
progressive program, yet he ridi-
cules and criticizes the agencies
which are making these programs
possible. Too, he has not named
any one Of these agencies which
he would be willing to eliminate"
Cooley called for support Of
President Roosevelt, saying: when
the call comes for a leader to
carry. us through the remainder
of this war and to settle vi on the
world a lasting peace, the voices
from the foxholes, the factories and
the homes of the world will de-
mand Franklin Delano Roosevelt. :"
Josephus Daniels, former secre-
ta-y of the Navy and Mr.. Roose-
velt's Chief in World War I,
called for support of the Demo-
cratic ticket. This is no election
OF high or low tariffs, but an
election involving the security of
the civilized world. Unless the
Democrats are elected you will
have a REPETITION Of 1921 when the
peace of the world was thrown
away and the conditions created
for the present war. We can and
will have a world organization to
outlaw war if Mr.. Roosevelt is re-
elected"
Also speaking was r. Gregg
Cherry party nominee for governor,
