WHAT THEY SAY "Opponents of Sen. Henry J. Allen, Republican candidate for U. S. Senator, continue to use democratic propaganda in an attempt to embarrass Senator Allen," according to Leslie S. Edmonds, director of publicity of the Allen-for-Senator Committee. Sometime ago a Kansas Democrat attacked Senator Allen's tariff record," continued Edmonds. The author of the attack has been identified as a Democrat by his friends in Marshall county and by his associates and by fellow members of the executive committee of the farm organization to which he belongs. Despite his politics and the nature of the attacks and despite the clear-cut answer which has been made to him one of Senator Allen's opponents is still cir-cul-at-ing from that opponent's headquarters similar misstatements. Disputing the Congressional Record the most recent attack has to do with Senator Allen's vote on hides Everyone who is acquainted with Senator Allen's senatorial career knows that he worked for a tariff on hides, and also for a tariff on petroleum. The Senator's opponents, however, insist upon a close examination of the Record. We insist that the whole truth should be told. Senator Allen's friends are entitled to know the absurdity of these newspaper charges. "The final Senate vote on the various amendments providing duties of hides was taken March 20, 1930, and is reported on page 5951 of the daily Congressional Record. It shows that the amendment under consideration was by Senator Oddie, and not by Senator Phipps, as erroneously reported by Senator Allen's political components. Senator Allen announced, when the vote was taken, that he was paired with Senator Caraway (Dem.), and if permitted to vote would vote 'yea'. "If Senator Allen had voted, Sen Caraway also would have voted, and their votes would have canceled each other. His position was clearly stated in the Record, and his formal vote would not have changed the result. "Senator Allen's attitude in favor of a tariff on hides, and in opposition of a taric on hides, and in opposition On January 23, he made a speech opposing the shoe tariff on the ground that it was not needed by the American manufactures. His remarks are found on Page 2292 of the daily Record. "Another misinterpretation of Senator Allen's votes on the tariff which is perhaps not so important has to do with Senator Allen's vote on crude oil. Senator Allen had a general pair with Senator Brock when this vote was taken but his vote would Vol.23, No.15, IRON Mission Gift E OF F. MISSION TAGS MISSIONARY ed Griffin Mission, eria, Africa. not have changed the result in any way. It was the last hopeless attempt to get a 40c duty on oil but was not important because the fight for a tariff on oil had been lost nearly a month before. "I can think of nothing quite so unfair as to quote Senator Allen's votes without reporting the legislative circumstances under which they were cast," concluded Edmonds "In that connection I am happy to quote an editorial written by Chas. F. Scott in the Iola Register, July 5. Mr. Scott says in the editorial. Nothing is more unfair to a legislator than to cite his record without carrying along with it a detailed report of the parliamentary situation that existed at the time any particular vote was cast, and a similar report of the reasons for the absence from any roll call ....To charge that any vote cast by Senator Allen indicated he was 'hostile to the major industry of his own JOHN H. CRAWFORD FOR COUNTY ATTORNEY John H. Crawford of 731 South Hillside, Wichita, Ia candidate for the nomination on the Republican ticket for the office of County Attorney for Sedgwick County. Mr. Crawford has been resident of Sedgwick County since 1907, was a member of the city commission in 1917 and 1918; Commissioner of industry for Kansas from 1919 until 1925; from 1925 to 1929 was a member of Public Service Commission assigned to the duties of Commissioner of Workmen's Compensation. For the past 11 months he has been and at this time, the senior member of the law firm of Crawford & Gerety u. c. Crawford passed the examination before the State Board of Law Examiners in 1924 and is admitted to practice before the Supreme and all other inferior courts in Kansas, the United States District Court, and the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. He is a member of the Methodist Church, the Masonic bodies, Order of the Eastern Star, Typographical Union, and the Lions Club. He believes he is sufficiently qualified by experience and mature judgment to give to the people of Sedgwick County a rane, efficient and communal administration of the county attorney's office.

WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, July 18, 1930 NORTH CAROLINA DEMONSTRATES JUSTICE, AMITY RALEIGH, N. C., July 10:—As a partial offset to the depressing story of interracial conflict that came this week out of Emelle, Alabama, it is gradifying to record two incidents that have just taken place here, in which interracial friendship and the desire for equal justice and opportunity are strikingly illustrated. One was the commutation by Governor Max Gardner of the death sentence that for two years has hung over Wilbur M. Mcod, Lee County Negro beause of doubt of his guilt; the other was the public presentation by the Governor of a silver loving cup to Ophela Holley, colored high school student from Bertie County, as one of the first prizes in a state while "Love at Home" essay contest. Both incidents, as it happened, were prominently featured the same day on the front page of the "News and Observer," leading daily paper of the city. The case of McLeod, who two years ago was convicted of assault and murder and sentenced to die, has been refuted by the Superior Court and twice reviewed by the State Supreme Court, which upheld the second conviction. Still doubtful of McLeod's guilt, however, Lieutenant L. A. Oxley, of the State Board of Public Welfare, investigated the case and recommended clemency. Peopled about the matter, Governor Gardner visited "Death Row" in person and for more than an hour talked with McLeod, who was ignorant of his identity. Deciding that there was too much doubt of guilt to let the prisoner die, the Governor commuted the sentence to life imprisonment. Investigation of the case will be continued, it is announced, in the hope of teaching certainty as to McLeod's guilt of innocence. The presentation of the loving cup care as the culmination of an educational campaign in which more than a thousand essays were written by high school students on the need of learning to "Live at Home" by more efficient productive methods. Two identical silver cups, very large and handsome were presented by the Governor to the two first winners, a white boy and a colored girl. The presentation took place in the House of Representatives, which was crowded with an integral audience, and the exercise were broadcast by radio. The "News and Observer" carried on the front page a picture of the winners, holding their cups and standing on either side of the Governor. Forty additional prizes were presented by white and colored speakers. 15 YEARS SETTLEMENT Fifteen years of warfare between Senator Henry J. Allen and Arthur L. McKenney, editor of American Railroad Labor Magazine, has been ended with a truce this month. Editor McKenney in an editorial in the July issue of American Railroad Labor began by saying, "No one has written more bitter denunciation of Henry Allen during the 15 years past than has the editor of this magazine and ended with the declaration that Labor will support Henry Allen for U. S. Senator. The American Labor Magazine issued monthly as "a plea for industrial democracy and equality of opportunity" has an extensive circulation among railroad men in Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Louisiana. It is member of the Labor Press Association. The entire signed statement of Editor McKenney in Railroad Labor follows: "No one has written more bitter denunciation of Henry Allen during the 15 years past than has the editor of this magazine. However, we are reminded 'that wise men change their minds — but fools never do.' We also know that men are much given 'no emotion oft' times created during conflict or trial — and make (Continued on page four) YOU SHOULD KNOW WHAT REED HAS DONE THE present campaign for the renomination of Governor Clyde Reed has been featured by a number of misstatements regarding his appointments of Negroes on the state payroll. Recently an anti-Reed speaker was reported to have said that Governor Reed had failed to use Negroes in state work. An investigation of the records proves that the contrary is the case. Mr. Reed's long friendship for many of the Negroes in the state is well known and where it has been possible to him do so his administration has employed them in state offices. These are facts and not the wild statements of partisan politics Evidence on this fact came to light yesterday in a telephone conversation with Charles C Lytle who is a Negro and it present is a deputy state fire marshal at Torcha. Mr. Lytle stated that under Governor Reed more Negroes have been appointed to state positions than has been the case under the administration of any other Kansas governor. Before leaving paid anti - Reed speakers it will be well to check up the records and know the facts. It is an old political trick to make changes in speeches in the hope that a gullible public will swallow one without having reference to the records. Local Negroes who are at the head of Governor Reed's campaign, of course, know how to discount this sort of propaganda. Intelligent Negro voters also have long since learned not to believe all they hear. It is up to the well posted Negroes of women to put out the facts regarding Governor Reed and his friend ship for their race. Mr. Reed is not afraid of an examination of any of his official acts. Among the outstanding accomplishments of Governor Reed that meet Negro citizens is his vigorous backing up of the Attorney General's office in state law enforcement. It is significant that the bourgeois and the vice element of the state are Governor Reed's strongest opponents. $10,000 was appropriated to fight vice in Kansas and about $30,000 has been used. There have been 226 arrests with 201 convictions due to state agents. Times already amount to $38,000, more than money spent, and in addition 30 cases have been confiscated. One of Governor Reed's campaign promises was to "lift Kansas out of the mud." In 1929 1,256 miles of various types of sufacing were completed. By the end of 1930 the largest road program in the history the state will have been completed, and no longer will the toughest highway, as they have in the past. What is more important, he huge loss in a state where motorists have always had to avoid the mud has been done away with. Many false statements have been made about taxes. As a matter of fact state taxes in 1929 were lower than they have been since 1921. The state administration has been kept within the budget and there is good balance on hand above what has been used to carry on the work. Governor Reed has given an economical administration without sacrifices of efficiency. All Governor Reed and his local Negro committee ask of the intelligent Negro voter, is to study the facts and vote accordingly. They are not in favor of making a strong eagle whenever that can be backed up by fact and figures. NOW READ THIS!

The "Y," with its pool and its expert instructor, offers ideal condition for boys to become good swimmers. But the boys you know may not know this unless someone, taking an active interest, tells them and helps them to take advantage of their opportunity. Be a "pal" to boys!

Henry Allen, at heart, has always been a protestor against might and autocratic power. Much like the Charles Evans Hughes 1916 fiasco in the west that cost Mr. Hughes the pivotal states, the gods of fate placed Henry Allen in an unenviable position as governor of Kansas. Governor Allen did not invite the fight he was forced to make — he tried to avoid it but could not do so. We well know the regretable results. "Now, Labor in Kansas must choose between Henry Allen and four other candidates for United States Senator. His four opponents are known to be the rankest sort of old-line reactionaries, in fact they know or care nothing concerning the aspiration and utility of labor. Henry Allen will fight a formidable fight for his friends and for principle — this we know. He is in a receptive mood. It's up to us to stand by a righteous principle that involves our future rather than by an error and mistake. 'Henry "will stand hitched if we support him — let's do the wise thing and 'skate on the ice' the boys skate on with W. K. Henderson. It will pay big."

"In his long years of public life Governor Reed has fought for the interest of the common public against the organized monoply of the great interests, and his stand against the curtailment of wheat acreage is in line with his record in the past.
