and what I see as 1 prowl among
“Patriot to the core, hia chief paanion is

turity. I don’t know how the pendulum will
swing in 1932, nor does this letter indicate a
; choice on my part, Lut so far as the af-
fairs of the speakership are concerned, the
whole of America may be assured that pre-
siding over the destinies of the House of
representatives is a man who does not trim;
a man, who, when he speaks, speaks with a
voice that means manhood, wTio does not
j calculate, who is not afraid to stand firm
against the crowd. It is particularly fortu-
nate at this particular time, there is at the
helm the steady hand and fine vision of this
cavalier of the new and old south—John N.
Garner.

A SLOPPY-MINDED SOUTHERNER
Mention of John Garner for the presiden-
tial candidacy cubbed the hair of the New
York Evening Post the wrong way, and.
in listing his objections to the Texan, the
editor of the Post called Mr. Garner “a slop-
py-minded Southerner.”

Federal Judge Hutcheson asked
a witness if he thought the peo-

“No." Apparently the people of
East Texas are in no mood to study

nor do I wish by the same token to express
even a personal preference for one Demo-

titude of neutrality should not prevent a
mere private in the ranks from paying sin-
cere tribute to one, who, through merit and
achievement, is entitled to a more lovely
portrait than that given him in a recent;
editorial in your valued paper.

Garner as a "sloppy-minded Southern Dem-

In my humble opinion, John Garner is the
most genuine personality that has come up
on the stage of our National life in a genera-
tion. Your editorial seeks to set off and dis-
parage John Garner by declaring that he is
the product of the lazy south. And then
comes in your editorial that invidious com-
parison of him with Woodrow Wilson, John
Davis, Carter Glass, Colonel House and Da-
vid F. Houston- and Joe Robinson, whom
you say do not represent the lazy south but
the new south. I have had the pleasure of else may have to be given up!

It got so rough once we turned

these possessions of ours. I was
just wondering if Mellon knows we

way to put an additional tax on

times of a mlssplaced Budget. I am

Since I crossed into Canada from
Bellingham Washington, to catch
the Boat at Vancouver I dont know
a thing thats happened. Canada
was so tickled that England payed
her some attention that she was
still writing about them, and they
wasent paying any attention to
their little innocent Sister to the
south. It kinder feels good not to
know what is happening at home.
In fact It does feel good, for none
of it Is any good, so its better to
stay In ignorance. Whether Con-
gress ever met or not I dont know.
I hope they dident, but it would be
just about em to do it. they
got no more regard for the peoples
welfare than to.
This Japan has been kicking up
a mess politically since I got here,
(not of course all on account of
that) but they had a Budget that
wouldn’t balance, and they had no-
thing to use for money, just like
we did, so they changed'' Cabinets.
Mellon has never thought of that
idea. Now as to whether these new
ones can find any more money lay-
ing around is doubtful. A Cock-
eyed Budget is the downfall of
more Prime Ministers nowadays
than war used to be.
Japan has got two Parties too.

more than they could remember
ours. But they i
