HOLT, 29, REACHES
SENATE IN 4 YEARS
Spectacular Career Began
With Election to West
Virginia House.
CHARLESTON, W. Va„ November
20 (N.A.N.A.).—Four years ago, Rush
D. Holt, 29-year-old Democratic Sena
tor-elect from West Virginia, began
his public career.
He was graduated from high school
at 1*'. At 18 he received his A. B.
degree from Salem College. Salem, W.
Va. He taught school for two years
and then clerked in a grocery and
meat store. He lived above the store
and here had his library, in which he
spent all of his spare hours studying
government. In 1930 he was elected
as his county's delegate to the Lower
House of the West Virginia Legisla
ture. He was re-elected in 1932.
Holt's first speech in the House
astonished sage old politicians, who
began to ask, "Who is that young fel
low?” His liberal tendencies soon
' brought upon him such epithets as
“Red,” “Socialist,” "Bolshevik,” but
he continued his denunciation of “ab
sentee landlords," "invisible govern
ment” and the utilities, which, he
charged, were robbing the State.
Inherits Father's Fight.
Mr. Holt inherited the fighting char
acteristics of his father, a country
doctor, who has made his name known
i for years in the State. His father at
one time edited a Republican weekly
newspaper in addition to his medical
practice. He changed from Repub
; lican to Socialist and was thrice the
latter party’s nominee for United
States Senator, and once was the
nominee for Governor.
The elder Holt’s latest feat was to
become mayor of Weston at the age of
82. While he was aenied the privi
lege of having his named placed on the
ticket, voters wrote it in and elected
him. He still is the town’s mayor.
The young Mr. Holt's success in the
Legislature and on the stump has been
attributed to his knowledge of his sub
ject and the sincere way in which he
presents his facts. During his two
terms in the Legislature he virtually
held the votes of the House in his
hand. Time and again he would rise
in debate and turn what seemed to be
sure defeat into a victory.
So far as the House was concerned,
he had almost a perfect record. A
conservative Senate, however, succeed
ed in deadlocking his bills.
His Senate campaign was no less
spectacular than his career in the
' Legislature. He won the nomination
! despite the opposition of Gov. H. G.
Kump. also a Democrat, and the op
; position of the national administration
1 through Postmaster General James A.
Parley, who supported another candi
i date.
Mr. Holt pledged himself to full
! support of President Roosevelt and
the New Deal. He declares that hon
■ est business has nothing to fear from
him. and he has announced he is
anxious to assist in protecting the
legal and moral rights of business.
"No honest and legitimate business
Young Senator
RUSH D. HOLT.
has anything to fear from me, but I
want to serve notice on the power
trust and other combines that place
property above humanity that I shall
continue to expose their dishonest
practices and to demand that they
deal fairly,” he said.
Whether or not Mr. Holt will be al
lowed to take his seat—a Senator
must be 30 years old, according to the
Constitution—is now the subject of
much debate. He will not be 30 until
May. Seme of his friends have advised
him not to appear to take the oath
until he comes within the required age.

NEWARKPUBLISHER
DENIES SUSPENSION
Earlier Statement Said Paper
Would Resume Publication
When Strike Ends.
By the Associated Press.
NEWARK, N. J„ November 20 — '
L. T. Russell, publisher of the Newark 1
Ledger, morning newspaper, where
editorial employes have been on strike
for four days, today denied that the
newspaper was suspending publication,
as had been announced by Arthur T.
Warner, its business manager.
Russell's denial came less than an
hour after Warner's announcement. ,
"Warner’s announcement was with
out my knowledge or consent and
without authority," Russell said.
"I have nothing further to say ex
cept my original statement, which
speaks for itself.”
The statement to which Russell re
ferred said that “the morning edition
of the Ledger will be resumed" when
the strike ends, while Emmet Crozier,
president of the Newark Newspaper
Guild and one of the strikers, said
“the threat (of suspension) is a grand
stand play by Mr. Russell for public
sympathy in his refusal to settle the
strike on reasonable terms.”
