Texas Labor Girds
To Defend Rights
AUSTIN (UP) — Movements
considered harmful to labor
have become a leading topic of
the 47th convention of the Tex-
as State Federation of Labor in
Austin.
Daniel VV. Tracy, assistant sec-1
retary of labor, warned Texas
workmen yesterday that "we
must be constantly on our guard
against loss of our rights.

Be Wooed By Two
Warring Factions
AUSTIN (UP) — Texas' dem-
ocratic voters are to be wooed
by two warring political fac-
tions.
Each side has its own slate of
presidential electors certified for
the November 7th general elec-
tion ballot.
Latest development in the
state's muddled political squab-
ble was the filing just before
last midnight's deadline of 23
electors by the anti-fourth term
group which earlier m the day
had chosen to call themselves
the "Texas Regulars."
They were the ones chosen at
the May 23rd state democratic
convention in Austin, 15 of
whom later said they would not
vole for President Roosevelt and
Senator Truman. -Mie pro-Roose-
velt faction then won control of
the September convention In
Dallas and set vp a slate pledg-
ed to support the Chicago nomi-
nees.
Secretary of State Sidney Lath-
am refused to certify the pro-
Roosevelt group until ordered to
Saturday by the state supreme
court.
Meanwhile, in Dallas, the en-
trenched Democratic executive
committee set out to raise $150,-
000 in campaign expenses and to
lure 1,000,000 voters to the polls
on election day. Headed by State
Chairman Harry L. Seav of Dal-
las, the committee proposes two
subcommittees to clean the par-
ty's house from stem to stem.
One subcommittee is to
recommend revision of the
party's constitution and by-
laws in order that absolute
control will remain in the
hands of parly leaders. The
other subcommittee is lo stu-
dy revision of the stale's
election laws for the same
purpose.
The jiew committee chairman
held out what he termed "the
olive branch of peace" to Demo-
Icratic voters who may disagree
1 with President Roosevelt.
He calls the anti-fourth term
faction "a bunch of high-power-
ed bolters who would destroy
the Democratic party through
deception and treachery — a
group that bolted democratic
principles in May, at the nat-
ional party in -July, and finally
from the supreme court in Aus-
tin Saturday."
Seay goes on to say:
"We do not believe the
Texas voters who may dis-
agree with President Roose-
velt will follow t his sort of
false leadership in Novem-
ber."
Simultaneously, Roy Sander-
ford of •■Bel ton. former state sen-
ator described the supreme
court decision as "flimsy," and
as an effort "to surrender the
real democratic party in Texas
to the satellites of Hillman and
Browder.
"The cardinal purpose of 11le
((Texas Regulars) is to restore
'constitutional government in the
United States and elect a Dem-
ocrat as its next president."

Sooner Blonde Loses j Truman Says Dewey
Fight To Bypass ! Helping Fourth Term
Pennsylvania Pen Every Time He Talks
PITTSBURGH (UP) — The
Pennsylvania supreme court, in
a ti to I opinion, today upheld
the conviction last October fitIt
of Blonde M«tney .leanette Holt,
31, for the poison slaying of her
husband, Jusge, 33. at Waynes-
burg.
The high court rejected the
attractive Oklahoma woman's
appeal for a new trial, thus
confirming her conviction of
first degree murder with a rec-
ommenation of life imprison-
ment.
Mrs. Holt was charged with
systematically feeding arsenic
to her husband, a tractor opera-
tor on the "Big Inch" pipeline.
She became the first woman in
Greene county history to be con-
victed of first degree murder.
The court's majority opinion,
written by Justice William B.
Linn, held that there was enough
evidence of Holt's death being
caused by arsenical poisoning
and enough evidence that his
wife administered the poison to
him to justify the verdict.
I-Iolt, of Ravia, Oklahoma, died
suddenly on May 27th. 1013.

KANSAS CITY —(UP) —Sen-
ator Trumaj) says the criticisms
he made as chairman of the sen-
ate war investigating committee
were all constructive in nature.
He says also that the administra
i tion adopted the suggestions and
that the committee's work was
always approved by the adminis-
tration.
That is the democratis vice
presidential candidate's reply to
Governor Dewey's Oklahoma
City address last night. The GOP
presidential candidate cited 3
instances, quoting from Tru-
man's speeches or writings, in
which lite Missy.ua. senator plac-
ed blame for defense program
difficulties at the white house
door.
Truman says he did not hear
the Dewey speech, nor has ho
read it this morning. He says he
knows nothing more about its
contents than what he has been
told by reporters.
As for Dewey as campaigning,
however. Truman says he hopes
| the GOI' nominee stays out on
i the rostrum for a long time.
Truman says every Dewey
speech helps the fourth term
ticket
Truman goes on to say that
I the president's Saturday night
speech was necessary, lie says—
I "It nailed down all those lies."

Repatriate Group
Returns Home; FDR
To Meet With Nelson
WASHINGTON (UP) — A
new group of American repat-
riates returned to America to-
day.
The Swedish exchange liner
Gripsholm docked at Jersey
City, New Jersey, shortly be-
fore noon Eastern War Time to-
day.
The Gripsholm has returned
219 sick and wounded United
States army men from German
prison camps. The exchanged pri-
soners include both officers and
enlisted men. They will be re-
moved immediately to the ar-
my's Halloran hospital on Staten
Island for treatment and conval-
escence.
The Grlpshol in ulsn
brought repatriated Ameri-
can citizens back to llie Uni-
ted States. The exchange
was made at Goteborg, Swe-
den, and some Americans—
unable to make the crossing
by ship—were removed al a
Brillsli port and flown to
this country.
Elsewhere on the home front,
President Roosevelt gets his first
eye-witness account of war pro-
duction in the only country
where the Allies are losing
ground — China. War Produc-
tion Chief Donald M. Nelson has
just returned front a month-
long mission in China, where he
conferred with Generalissimo
Chiang Kai-Shek, and studied
China's industrial problems.
When the president talks to
Nelson, new plans for the oper-
ation of the war production
board may be discussed. Many
Washington observers believe
Nelson will replace James Byr-
or instead of returning lo his
nes as war mobilization direct-
duties as chief of the WPB.
The American Federation of
Labor called on President Roose-
velt this morning to correct
what it called the "gross inequi-
ty" between workers' income
and cost of living expenditures.
The AF of L declared that cor-
rective action is necessary to
prevent strikes in the reconver-
sion period. George Meany —A.
F. of L. Secretary and a mem-
ber of the WLB—testified at the
opening of war labor board hear-
ings of union demands for up-
ward revision of the little steel
formula.
On Oie home production
front — many idle wheels of
industry in Detroit are ex-
pected lo begin turning
again today. Leaders of ap-
proximately 10,000 United
Aut< nio) iU WorkcPK indi-
cate the recent disputes at
five Detroit war plants have
been settled. This would
mean that the workers would
begin reporting for their
regular shifts before Ou-
tlay is out.
The president of the United
States chamber of commerce,
Eric A. Johnston, is concerned
with post-war income. Johnston
says the peace goals for national
income never will be reached un-
less a record building program is
introduced when the war is ov-

Men in general hold three
distktly different ideas regard-
ing the understanding of the
Bible. One idea is that ordinary
men like you and me cannot un-
derstand the Bible at all. Hence
there is a need for the church
through its ecclesiastical leaders,
and rulers to explain and make
clear what the Bible means by
what it says. This order of cler-
gy claim to receive inspiration
from God to explain what God
meant by what he said. In other
words, logically)he suggestion is
that God did not say what ho
mean, or he did not mean what
he said. Since he did not
what he meant or did
mean what he said it has
necessary for that same
tlOWn through the- ctgus lu
are used by God or man. We may
not know what the word means
and so there is lack of under
standing. Bu) if we know the
meaning of the words then we
understand the ideas therel^
conveyed. We all understand
exactly alike.
