Speech 10 Aid Hurley
'Piped in by Radio
BY The Assoeiotsd Press

NORTH PLATTE, Nebr.. Nov. 2.
Harold Stassen, whose plane was
grounded here by Denver snow
storm, declared tonight in an ad-
dress "piped" to Albuquerque, N.
Mex, that new strength is coming
to the Republican Party" and that
the party now faces grave re-
sponsibility."
The former Minnesota Governor
was scheduled as the principal
speaker at the Albuquerque rally in
support of Patrick Hurley, Republi-
can Senate candidate from New
Mexico. However, his United Air
lines plane stopped here because
of the snowstorm and hurried ar
rangements were made for him to
speak from here by radio.
From coast to coast new strength
is coming to the Republican Party
from the ranks of labor, from vet
Grams and young men and young
women and from Democratic and
Independent voters Mr.. Stassen
said in his prepared address.
This new strength, he said, arises
from three factors:
"First, the widespread disappoint-
ment and disapproval by the people
of all walks of life of the conduct of
the national administration since
the end of the war.
Second, the unusually able group
of new Republican candidates for
Congress and for the Senate in
many of the States of the Union,
who are winning exceptional sup
port from the people Of their dis
trictS.
Third, a growing confidence that
the Republican Party will measure
up to increased responsibility in the
interests OF all the people as the ma
jority party in the years ahead"
In the l3 months since the Japa-
nese surrender Officially ended the
tragic world wide war" Mr.. StaSsen
declared, the national adminstra-
ton has failed strategically in the
responsibilities of its postwar lead
ership. 1t has failed in it's domestic
policy. 1t has failed in its foreign
policy"
Mr.. Stassen was scheduled to leave
by train for Minnesota Immediately
after completing his address over
