while they were not shouting, they arc
talking and thinking.
"That Is the kind of a campaign this
Is" the Senator said. "There Is an
almost total lack of the old fashioned
hullabaloo. But the people of the
country are thinking and thinking more
profoundly about this election than was
ever the case In any election I can re
member. "The people are talking on the Rtrcets
and at meetings, In the unlet way of
people who want to settle things. They
want the country to get back to normal
again, economically and industrially."

at the meeting ho addressed, , but said
