TITS EITHER a feast or famine
In this life, and sometimes it's
both,n writes Dryland Dan from
Sheridan county. We've done pretty
well with our wheat durin' most of
the past 10 years but Is years ago
we were worse than broke up in this
corner of the state. Couldn't even
afford to buy castor oil for the kids.
Now we learn that all the time we
were sittin' right on top of rich
oil pool. Guess that explains why
the DANCED prairie dogs kept as fat
as they did durin' the drouth. This
season the pendulum has swung
around and while some of us are
long on oil leases we're short on
crop"

Text of BorkIey Statement

I have never believed and do
not now believe that any one of
these groups should be per-
mitted to dominate or control
either of the great political par
ties of our Nation.
However. since arriving in
Chicago I have learned that
certain self-annointed political
labor leaders have taken upon
themselves to announce their
opposition to me as a Demo-
cratic nominee for President.
They have admitted to me that
weeks ago they committed
themselves TO a program and to
candidates other than myself
which would give them greater
control of the machinery and
policies of the Democratic Party.

Double Precuution
Fails to Prevent
|Dever BobbIe
By the Associated Press

CHICAGO, July 22.-Gov. Dever
of Massachusetts, took double pre-
caution against forgetting the
keynote speech he delivered to
the Democratic Convention last
night.
Other speakers have used a
teleprompter-a gadget that un-
rolls the speech in big letters so
the orator can read as he talks.
Dever used two teleprompters-
one on his right, the other on
his left.
They didn't stop him from max
ing a bobble.
At the. outset he said he was
lpleaSed to be serving as toastmas-
ter-oops!-as keynoter.
"Toastmaster" was a natural
mistake. The Governor is an old
hand at presiding over dinner
meetings.

only a small number of Okla

their television sets today to vote
in the runoff of the July / pri-

The candidacy Of Oklahoma's S
Senator Kerr for the Democratic

fact that most local races have
already been settled will keep the

combined by the legislature into
a single district.

A move is under way to per-
suade Gov. Earl Warren of Cali
fornia to appoint former President
Herbert Hoover to the Senate if
Senator Nixon, Republican of
California. is elected Vice Presi-
dent in November.
Representative Kilburn, Repub-
lican, of New York, wrote to Gov.

pointment of Mr.. Hoover would
meet with genuine enthusiasm
from the whole country"
Mr.. Kilburn told a reporter he
had discussed his suggestion with
a number of House Republicans
and said it had been received with
unanimous approval.
However, the foreign policies of
Gov. Warren and Mr.. Hoover are
far apart. and some doubt was
expressed the California Governor
would follow Mr.. Kilburn's sug-
gestion.

CHICAGO, July 22.-The tert
OF Vice President Barkley's
statement announcing his With-
drGwal from the Democratic
presidential race tolloWS::
I have asked the Kentucky
delegation not to present my
name to the convention as a
candidate for the Democratic
nomination for President.
When the Kentucky State
Democratic convention indorsed
me for the highest Office in the
Nation and instructed it's dele
gates to vote for me, I was pro-
foundly grateful.
Because of my long experience
in domestic and international
affairs. I felt that in this critical
world period I could serve my
country well as President of the
United States.
Later, when I had been urged
by many people throughout the
country to become an active
candidate for President. &C
ceded to their desire. Since then,
many elements of the Demo-
cratic Party throughout the
Nation have offered me their
support for the nomination, all
of which I have appreciated.

At the same time, the leaders

II by taking myself out of this

ing the debate, but he urged adop-
ton of the Moody rule.
One Southerner arose to speak
for the Moody rule. He was A. L.
Patterson of Alabama, who ex-
planned that the delegates from
his state took a party loyalty oath
when they ran for the right to
attend the convention.
Gov. G. Mennen Williams OF
Michigan supported the rule, de-
claring that when men wear the
Democratic uniform. and help
pick a Democratic captain, they
should be expected to support
that captain, and not go out and
"play for any other captain or
general"

of it." Senator Holland said the
new rule will sound the death
knell of any chance for the DEM
ocratic Party to succeed this
year."
Gov. Battle of Virginia said he
comes from a State that knows
nothing but democracy. But he
said the Democrats of Virginia
are not accustomed to being put
on terms" He said Virginia, like
Georgia, was instructed to come
to this convention, and report
back to the State Convention.
s"We expect to go along with
your nominee" he said, "but we
don't expect to be put on terms
as to whether we can belong to
this convention"
For South Carolina, State Sem
lator Edgar Brown said that dele
cation is under the same instruc-
tions as Georgia and Virginia. to
report back the decisions Of this
convention.
"This convention has no au-
thority to tell us to change the
law of South Carolina" he con-
tinued. "The law determines
whose names will be on the
ballot"
Others State Their Position.
Mr.. Brown said he doubted
whether South Carolina coul6
further participate in the con-
vention under this rule, "but will
participate until the Credential:
Committee tells us otherwise"

ing to get an agreement that
would avoid a floor fight, but failed
in that objective.
Early in the evening there was
some disagreement between the
Hartman and Kefauver groups
over wording, but, after the con-
vention had stood in recess for an
hour, they agreed and decided to
go through with the fight.
At the outset, the contested
delegations from Texas and Mis-
sisSippi, which are regarded as
anti administration, voluntarily
agreed not to vote in the conven-
ton until they are seated perma-
nently. They have been seated
temporarily by the National Com
mittee. pending review by the Gre
dentials Committee.
Senator Moody said there is
only one question involved in the
new rule, namely. whether del

delegates do not have the power
to take the Moody pledge.
Senator Holland said Florida

party. But he warned that, in.

Democrats will need to win thi:

to get roll calls on both the sub
stitute and the original rule. Gov
Paul A. Dever of Massachusetts,
temporary chairman, ruled a fifth
of the delegates would have to
stand up for the purpose. Only
the Southerners stood. and the
chair ruled the number was in
sufficient.
Before the battle started on the
floor of the convention, Senator
Russell had issued statement
expressing grave doubt as to the
wisdom of imposing new rules on
delegates already chosen to this
convention under the old rules and
State laws.
"I can see no object to the pro-
posed changes to be applied in
the future, but I am opposed to
ex post facto laws and rules" the
Georgian said. II am also con-
fident that the politics of individ-
uals, rather than any desire for
party unity, has prompted these
11th hour suggestions for this
change in rules"
The rule had the backing of the
Hartman and Kefauver forces in
the convention. Although recog-
nizing that Gen. Eisenhower is
popular in the South even without
a breach in Democratic ranks, the
Northern liberals nevertheless ap-
peared to have decided that a
showdown with the Southerners
would help the Democratic Party
to carry the big Northern States
which have far more electoral
votes than the South.

Does Not Believe in
Control by Groups

I would be derelict in my re-
sponsibility to the American
people and to myself If I failed
to state the reasons which
caused me to withdraw my name
from the consideration of the
convention.
I shall state them now. It
has always been my belief, and
my record supports this, that
the Democratic Party should
serve without favor the best in
terests of all segments of our
life, the rich, the poor, the
Negro, the Jew. the Catholic, the
Protestant. the laborer in the
field, the laborer in the factory,
the businessman, the farmer

In letter yesterday to 1t. Gen.

lence to the three recent crashes
lin Elizabeth, N. j., which focused
national attention on the heavy

But he wrote it is evident that
Ia present concern over the safety

Mr.. Sasscer said the aviation
industry itself is concerned with
the heavy traffic load now moving

added, that serious concern was
felt in 1949 for the safety of pas
sengers arriving and departing

as for residents Of the area" To-
Gated in nearby Virginia. This
concern. he said, arose from the

"the CAA (Civil Aeronautics Ad.
