THE POLITICAL, MILL
Dokotos' Spot in National Politics
BY GOULD LINCOLN

The Dakotas, South as well
as North, are having their
day in the national political
spotlight. Next Tuesday,
South Dakota voters will go
to the polls in their preSi-
Dental preference primary.
They will elect delegates to
the Republican and Demo-
cratic National Conventions,
as well as important party
officials. The only preSiden-
tial candidate to enter the
primary was Senator Hubert
Humphrey of Minnesota
and he has since withdrawn
from the race for the presi-
Dental nomination. The Dem
ocrats will elect their dele
gateS-and the question is
to whom will they go and
whether Humphrey will be
able to lead them into the
camp of one of the four prin-
cipal remaining candidates
for the Democratic presi-
Dental nomination. Senators
johnson of Texas, Kennedy
of Massachusetts, and Sym
ington Of Missouri have all
wooed the South Dakota
Democrats. Adlai Stevenson,
the fourth aSpirant, is hold
ing aloof but has his friends.
On the Republican side. there
are no entrants in the presi-
Dental primary. 1t is ex-
pected, however, that a dele
cation to the G. o. P. ma
tional convention will be
strongly pro-Nixon.
In North Dakota a real test
of political sentiment in this
Northwest farm area viii!
take place June 28. A special
election to fill the vacancy
in the Senate caused by
the death of Senator Will
liam LANCER, vetran Re-
publican who voted as often
with the Democrats as with
the Republicans, is scheduled.
The Democrats are claiming
victory-but the Republican
candidate, Gov. John E. Da-
Wis. is making a hard cam
paign and is given a $3.50
chance to win by one of the
Shrewdest, most knowledg-
able politicians in the State.
The Democratic candidate is
Representative Quentin L.
Burdick, son of the now re-
tired Representative Ushur
L. Burdick, a Republican
veteran but now supporting
his son for Senator as he did
when he ran for the House
seat two years ago.
Both Sides Drive Hard
Both parties are working
hard for victory, believing
that the outcome of this Spe-
cial election will give not
only an indication of how the
farmers are feeling politically
this year, but also a psyche
logical boost to the victorious
party for the coming national
election. Apparently Mr.. Bur-
dick, the Democrat, is well
heeled so far as money is con-
cerned, judging by his use Of
radio, televiSion and other
advertising. Democratic as
pirants for President, includ-
ing Senator Johnson of Tex
as, have been in North Da-
kota, putting in good words
for the party's senatorial
candidate, as well as for
themselves. On the Republi-
can side, a number of ma
tionally known party lead
ers have spoken for Gov.
Davis. Vice President Nixon
is due to speak for him on
June 20; and Gov. Rookie
feller of New York will ap-
pear in the State for Gov.
Davis within the next two
weeks, also.
The old Non Partisan
League, which always sup
ported Senator LANCER, has

F. D. R. Memorial

Whenever I think about the
Franklin Delano Roosevelt
memorial my anger rises. To
raise this man (by act of
Congress) to the level of
Washington, Jefferson and
Lincoln by putting his memo
rial in a quadrant with them
is a travesty of the most gro
tesque nature. 1t is, to say the
least, a bad joke played on
the public by the Congress.
This was done so quietly that
SO per cent of us had no
chance to register a dissent
before the vote was taken. A
statue in a park, yes, but a
tremendous memorial, no.
How many people in this
country, in the light of his
tory and hindsight, feel that
F. D. r. rates an equal status
with Washington, jefferson,
and Lincoln?

Typo?
