''Restore the affairs of our State into the hands of the people where they belong, as the political bank ruptcy of the Democratic and Re- publican parties on such issues is practically self-confessed," Bridge ports Mayor Jasper McLevy Social ist nominee for governor declared Saturday night.
 McLevy was nominated at the one-day convention of the State So- cialist Party held at The Elton.

eliminate the "ancient racket of fees in probate courts" and "im- prove the niggardly provisions of our old age assistance low" as- serted that "every forward look ing, constructive measure in the public interest was ruthlessly side tracked by Democrats and Re- publicans, jointly"
 we stand for legal steps to re- lieve the economic disastor of un- employment; for improved work ing conditions for labor ana more equitable safeguards for the farm CTS welfare; for amendment of our old-age assistance laws on a pension basis making adequate payments mandatory; for laws en- couraging public ownership of pub lie utilities and rate reductions, for abolition of our obsolete and expensive methods of county gov- ernment and inclusion of county jails in state penal system under state operation. We stand for the conversion of the states apparent merit system into real rigid civil service, and for a true civil service and merit system for every city and town. This is something Democrats and Republicans will never give you, since political pat ronage and jobs are what their machines feed and fatten on.
 We stand for forward looking, non-partisan principles of govern ment, plus 8 demonstrated record of successful accomplishment to prove our ability to make them come true"
