"Montana, rival of Idaho in sound

from 1921 with a steadily mount

its farming business today upon some
new and substantial economic sup

summer fallow, motorized outfits and
big-scale machinery are important

like tall trees in the brush.

Washington— (FP) — Sen. Duncan

to the country against the proposed

dicts that if the shipping board will

Norman Thomas, socialist nominee
for president was in Washington on
July 9 to demand of the U. S. Radio
Commission that it drop its proposal
of suppression of the only socialist
or radical radio broadcasting station
iu the east—station WEVD in New
York.. He made an effective argu
ment. But he was not pursued by the
news cameramen. Equal treatment
as between presidential candidates
stops at the class line—whether a
working class party recognizes the
class struggle in its platform or not.
capitalist papers will not invest
man V dollars this year in pictures of
Norman Thomas or William Z. Foster.
Nevertheless Thomas got some pub
licit y for the socialist viewpoint, in
interviews and speeches in Baltimore
and in interviews in Washington. He
said he would award first prize for
hypocracy in the campaign, thus far,
to the democrats, on their law-en
forcem ent plank. In the first place
they ad °P ted a dry declaration after
gtagin * oae . of ^ wette f ? t conventions
on record, in a dry southern state. In
the second place they emphasized
their idea of law . enforcement by
lynching a negro in the convention
city before the work of the platform
makers began. And he would give
them second prize for hypocracy on
their plank denouncing imperialism in
Nicaragua, while they ignored Wil
son's record of conquest in Haiti and
the Dominican republican and his
rai ds into Mexico.
♦ * * *
While Thomas, a veteran campaign
ing in New York state, does not ven
ture a prediction as to the total so
cialist vote this year, he believes that
the wage workers in New York City
have at last begun to think seriously
about the loss they and their families
suffer through the graft in school,
sewer, garbage and other municipal
services which Tammany draws from
them. He believes the magic spell
which Tammany has exercised over
the bulk of organized labor in New
York is breaking down and that Tarn
will have to look to another
man
class for its strength in the future.
Thomas made a hit with the inde
pendent broadcasters, whose new as
sociation—formed to fight the trust
—held a meeting in the capital fol
lowing the hearing at which the so
cialists' right to maintain free speech
for minority economic opinions was
defended by the candidate. If their
applause at his remarks meant any
thing it indicated that socialist ar
guments would meet a less hostile re
i ception henceforth from the managers
! of many of these community stations.
