First, ] assure Jack Murray
and every other member of the
Key West JayCees that I do not
condone absentee voting other
than under the provisions set
forth in the law governing that
type Of voting, with this excep-
ton: add to the voters who are
sincere in their declarations
sailors who do not know, and
have no way Of knowing. wheth-
err or not they will be in port on
Primary Day. Further, ] have
never voted an absentee ballot,
nor have I ever tried to persuade
anybody else TO vote one.
Murray, IN The Citizen, said
the practice Of absentee voting
started .'two years ago" be-
gan to vote before Murray was
born, and the practice" of abb
sentee voting was in effect then.
! agree with him that the pri-
vilege Of absentee voting is
abused here. as well as in many
another county throughout the
nation. but that fact did not
warrant his using fiery language
In making his unfounded charg-
es.
Does he think the supervisor
and the two men who are notar-
ixing the affidavits, sworn to by
absentee voters. are not perform
ing their duties faithfully and
honorablyr II he thinks they are,
and ! believe he does, then he
must think an absentee vote
counts more than q vote cast at
the polls. for he spoke about
vote swinging" and deciding
the election by absentee ballots"
What difference would il make
to him or to me, were We run
ming for office. whether a vote
for or against Us was deposited
in an absentee ballot box or re-
corded on a voting machine?

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. o.
FOLLOWING is the tert OF an ad-
dress by GoD. SteuenSon at the
Milwaukee Arena last night:
I have come today to WiScon-
sin and now tonight to Mil
waukee, in a new role, but as an
old friend. There are thousands
OF us in Illinois, you know,
who work so weeks out of the
year so we can spend a two
week vacation in Wisconsin.
I know the beauty of WiScon-
sins vacation country on a blue
and white northland day. I
went up there this summer
after I was nominated for a
few days rest reflection and
fishing. But I'm a conserva-
ZIONIST and I decided not to
molest the fish much, and they
co-operated so well I didn't
molest them at all.
I've had that slack line feel
ing quite a lot here lately.
Every time I think the general
of the Army is about to say
something specific, positive and
clear about an issue, he says
something about wanting a
change-and swims back under
those lily pads entitled II just
want to do what is best for
the American people"
When I was young I re-
membered a story my grand
father told. He was in politics,
too, and he often stayed at
Ephrain up in Door County in
the summer and knew a lot Of
Wisconsin people. Some Wis
consin Democrat who wanted
campaign speaker in his district
wrote him: "Try to get Senator
Villas to come out. If you can't
get him. get Voorhees,. If you
can't get either, or some other
good man, come out yourself
and make some speeches"
When was young also re-
member that we all talked about
the wisconsin Idea" It meant
to us willingness to try things
out. to experiment in ways of
meeting the changing needs Of
democracy and of America. And
we thought of Milwaukee as one
place where the word Socialist
was something more than a club
you used to beat the brains out
Of any new idea.
speak to you tonight with
the conviction that the inde-
pendence Of thought which was
the root Of the Wisconsin Idea
and Wisconsin ProgressiviSm, is
still a vital force Ia this COM
munity and State. I know it is
because I know the men you
have chosen to express your
views in next months elections.
I know Andy Biemiller and
Glen zablocki, and the way
they have worked in Congress
for help to Europe. Aid to these
fatherlandS of America is the
hope for freedom for our friends
and families in the old
countries. It means resistance
to the tyranny of communism.
It means preventing World War
III.
I know the way my friend,
Bill Broxmire, has worked in
the Wisconsin Legislature on the
Anti-Io lobbying Act. and has
fought for a fairer tax system.
And I've known that splendid
young man for long time. His
father is a famous doctor. He
was my doctor which probably

tiers. And Senator Taft opposes
80 per cent price supports.
The G. O. P. has a new pack
age, and a new label, but it's
the same grand old political
hokum.
Let's look. next, at the Repub-
lican attitude toward rural elec-
trif1cation co-ops. You are deep
ly concerned with this in Wis
consin: one Of your REA co-ops,
the Dairyland Power cooper
ative at La Crosse, is the largest
in the country.
The General of the Army says
his newly adopted Republican
Party is for the REA program.
I guess they forgot to tell him
that most Republicans in Con-
gress have consistently voted
against REA. The two Republic
can Senators from Wisconsin,
for example. have voted against
REA and public power programs
on "a occasions in 20 times at
bat
The story on labor policy is
clearer than most. On Septem-
ber II. before, the AFL conven-
ton in New York, the General
spoke generally of American
labor's glorious past, its present
prosperity, its future promise.
But everything he said boiled
down to just one word: No.
And Republican Senator,
Wayne Morse. took the same
platform one day later to say
the Generals speech made it
completely clear that the RE
publican signals" are now being
called by the substitute quar-
terback" from Ohio. I believe
it's the only time in history that
a candidate for the Presidency
lost the nomination but won
the nominee. And after a name
calling contest that wore out
the vocabulary of indelicacies
at that.
And what of the vitally i'm
portant matter of guarding our
economy today against both the
imitation of rising prices and
the deflation of another de-
preston? You people here in
Milwaukee just decided to ex-
tend rent ceilings. and you have
been strong in your support for
necessary cost of living controls.
No man in Congress has been
more fortnight in protecting,
the public interest on this front
than Clement Zablocki.

We of the Democratic Party
are equally determined to pre-

country. We will not, as the
Republicans did in 1880. let this
Nation be forced to its knees

do 1t. We viii not let the farms

Feels People Interested
In Public Questions

I have built this campaign on
the proposition that the Amer
ican people are interested in all
the public questions that affect
their lives-and in knowing
where their Government is 60
ing as well as the name of the
man at the wheel.
The election is now q days
away. And as yet we have no
square statement from the Re-
publican candidate on the major
issues America faces. He has told
us what he is againSt-but he
refuses to tell us what he is for.
And mostly he's against sin and
Democrats.
The Republican strategy be-
comes increasingly clear. The
political hucksters of the Old
Guard have now a nice, new,
fancy. khaki-colored package.
They have an honored name
and a trick slogan. They have
nothing in the world to worry
about-if they can just get the
American people to buy that
package without opening it.
Well, they don't like the New
Deal, and they don't like the
Fair Deal, but We don't like this
fast deal.
And furthermore, that pack
age is coming unwrapped. What
We see peeking out is alarmingly
familiar. The G. o. P. has a new
package. and a new label, but
it's the same gloomy old product.
Let's see just what it is we're
being offered.
Let's look first at farm policy.
The Democratic position can
be stated in one clear, unam-
biguous sentence. We stand for

ports which the Democrats en-
acted over Republican opposi-
ton, and we are going to con-
tinue our search for practicable
price supports to cover perish
able products.
And the Republican position?
Well, pay your money and take
your choice. It's getting harder
everyday to tell which shell the
Republican farm policy is under.
The Republican platform was
ambiguous, to say the least. But
on September 6. the Republican
candidate said he supported the
Democratic program. Then on

speak in a little more detail of
the issue of American policy in
Europe. No other issue reveals
more strikingly the tactics in
this election of the Republican

BALTIMORE. May 81. - The
Maryland Jockey Club is ready tc
spend 81 million on immediate
improvements to the Pimlico race
track. President Milton A. Reckord
said in reply to a warning from
the Maryland Racing Commission
that the club must start rebuild
ing at the first chance.
The only immediate block to the
Improvement program is the re-
zoning of adjacent property SC
the plant may be expanded
Reckord said. He added that a
full overhaul Of the plant would
have to await lifting of Govern
ment restrictions on non-defense
building.
Reckord's statement came yes
terday after Frank Small, jr.
chairman of the Maryland Rae
ing Commission, served notice that
the commission wanted some ac-
tion on Pimlico's long awaited i'm
provement program. The Jockey
Club was allowed to withdraw
more than 100000 in improve

1T is my opinion that controls
are rapidly coming off. D.. I think
a lot of the preliminary work
could be done now. If they
don't make an effort to start re-
building at the first opportunity
they shouldn't keep racing at that
antiquated plant.

The Maryland Jockey Club an
nounced in 1916 it would spend
81 million modernizing the track
if it could buy Is more acres OF
adjacent land. It has bought the
land and twice has submitted
plans for rebuilding. But both
times the club claimed inability
to proceed because of Government
restrictions on materials.
In recent weeks there have been
recurring reports that some one
is trying to buy Pimlico. There
has been no confirmation of these
reports or of any inclination by
the stockholders to sell. The big

The golf pros are saying they've
never had it so rough.
The miserable spring weather
has resulted in cancellations OF
almost half the lessons and there S
not one who doesn't say business
is off about 40 per cent.
Driving range business is of
about 25 per cent from normal
spring seasons, according to the
pros who operate ranges.
One pro was saying yesterday
when Is lessons by the three pros
who teach at this particular club
were Cancelled, that for the first Is
days of May his 1852 gross income
was almost 80 per cent under
1851.
Spring lessons encourage golf
Iers to buy new golf outfits, but
this year only the hardy golfers
have braved the chilly winds and
steady showers for lessons, and
thus they've been making their
old clubs do for another season.
There has been little call for
summer clothes, as most golfers
have been bundled up when play
ing this spring. The only golf
course employees not complaining
too much are the greenskeepers.
The most frequent complaint of
the latter group is that the
courses have been too soft to NOV
properly.
Public and semipublic courses
have found their income from
greens fees far below the 1851
pace. with the exception of a few
week ends.
Upset will be a little-used word
in the 10th annual Schoolboy golf
tournament starting Monday, be-
cause there are so many young
