the ambition of both major parties
— te hold the balance of power and
important committee asignments
*nd chairmanships. Instead of put
ting numerical control of the house
and senate foremost, members of
the two bodies should be chiefly
- concerned in legislation for the best
interest of all the people. Princi-
pfei should come ahead of politics.
The National Democratic com-
oaittee is making apeals for funds

next year. There has been a weak,
p<my respohse as voters reflect up-!
ch» the past and what has transpired
under Roosevelt-Truman control
Lhe past twenty years. The appeal
of politicians to the people back
home in the respective states is not
atrousing them and raising the cash, j
Look at this state, with Senators [
Johnston and Maybank, national j
committeemen Edgar Brown, and a
tew other Stevenson enthusiasts, a
quota of twenty thousand dollars
has been assigned, with a response
from the entire state of only twelve
thousand dollars. Publication of
the list of donors would be inter-
-esting reading. The same non-in-
ferest is evident in all other South
ern states.
Those who preach from the
housetop “stand by the party’
should put up the cash. A pocket-
book talks louder than words.

to get back into office to save the;
country from wreck, using thej
