Editor Addresses
Republicans

A small group Of Republicans
gathered at Dunbar High School
for a rally sponsored by the
Ebright for Governor committee
and the Republican committeeman
of the 9th. and 7th. ward to hear
Charles Loeb, managing editor of
the Cleveland Call and Post, rant
against the so-called socialistic
state we are supposed to have.
While being a forceful speaker,
who is able to recite a humorous
anecdote to help his exhortations,
editor Loeb and the committee
failed to draw the hugh crowd
that should be expected at a Re-
publican rally.
Fred Bowers, worthy Republi-
can aspirant to the state legisla-
ture, mentioned that we had a
nice showing of Negroes in the
recent registration. This large
showing failed to make an ap-
pearance last night.
Mr.. Loeb minated that the CT

were spending hugh sums to "get
Taft, likened Taft to the Dutch
boy who kept his finger in the
dixie to keep the waters from
flooding the city and compared
part of Tafts voting record with a
we'll known Democrat to show
that Taft, in most instances, had
voted in an acceptable manner.
He chose to ignore Tafts pub
lished voting record on FEPC,
federal aid to education and the
75c minimum wage law. MI. Loeb
also did not mention that his pre-
sence in a known Democratic
stronghold was an effort of the
Taft machine to gather a few
stray votes to help him secure an
election that is fast losing ground.
