Predicting a smashing victory

State Senator James H. Snow

happy, spoils happy, headless
horsemen of the Bar-Nothing
gang"
William V. Roth, candidate for
lieutenant governor, raped the
Democrats as 1.-The party of unkept
promises" which spreads '.predic-
tions of gloom and doom"
u. S. Senator John j. Williams,
who shared the largest hand of the
evening with President Eisenhow-
er, Nixon and Gov. j. Caleb Boggs,
said the party has never gone be-
fore the voters of Delaware with a
better ticket and more proud
or better record"
Bush paid tribute to Williams as

John Williams in the Congress,

retary of the Treasury" he said.

feet must hurt all the time"
Other speakers included John w.
Rollins, candidate for governor
James T. McKinstry, congression-
al candidate, and Gerard P. kav-
anaugh, mayor candidate.
Mrs. Polly Buck, co-chairman of
the event along with Haskell said
ticket sales exceeded all expecta-
ton and topped the 460 figure early
last Thursday afternoon. The rainy
weather left a few empty seats
but they all were paid for
He accused the Democrats of
playing politics with the security
of the nation, pointing out that the
Democratic controlled Congress
boosted President Eisenhower s
military budget in each of the last
three election years, while cutting
it by greater amounts during non
election years.
Bush downgraded the qualifica-
tions of Mr. Kennedy and quoted
national Democratic leaders in
their expressions of doubt of Ken
nedy's ability.
Il find it difficult to speak as un-
kindly of Jack Kennedy as mem
bers of his own party have done,
Bush said.
Underlying the unanimous ex-
pressions of confidence in the vot-
ers to put the COP in the driver s
seat was central theme-to win
the Republicans must campaign
hard
This feeling was perhaps best
summed up by Kavanaugh when
he urged the campaign workers

Some Protestant leaders -
including Methodist Bishop
John Wesley Lord-decried any
attempts to use Reformation
Sunday as an occasion to crit
icize Catholics and the presi-
Dental candidacy of Demo-

Catholic.
ANY posture of discrimina-

Jew or Protestant on the basis
of religious belief or aftiliation
is abhorrent to all who cherish
the freedoms this Nation af-
fords," Bishop Lord said in a
statement yesterday. IT am

DR.. Russell Cartwrig h
Stroup, minister of the George
town Presbyterian Church,
said he was tempted to ignore
the observance of Reformation
Sunday because certain mis-
guided parsons were planning
to misuse the day for partisan
political purposes"
There were a few instances
where mention of the subject
was made in a brief, round
about manner.

pastor Of the Congress Heights
Baptist Church. held up a leaf
let titled "Baptists, Roman
Catholics, and Religious Free
dom" and told his parishioners:

better read this" The sermon,
delivered by an assistant. made
no mention Of the subject.

threatens to destroy democ-

Roman Catholic bisohps kept
up their fight against Gov. Luis

denies to Catholics the church
