TRIBUTE PAID i TO TOWNSEND — ( M. Clifl’ord Townsend 01- ■ ficially Notified 01 Nomination I Marion, Ind. July 10-Adaptatlon ( ,f the Roosevelt "Good Neighom joliev to the solution of publK problem* !n Indiana, was advocat. >1 ( by M Clifford Towneend. Democia tic nominee for governor, in remarks made here last night e ot< a record-breaking audience of Eh'inocrats from over the state who came to join the Grant county jollification party at Matter Park. The Democratic candidate lor governor was honored by (he pr*uence of party leaders, state officials head-d by Governor Paul V. McNutt, United States Senator Sherman Minton and a number of congressmen. He was introduced by Alex N. Pureley. Fifth District Democratic chairman, foil >wing addresses by Governor McNutt, Senator Minton and Omer S. Jackson, Democratic state chairman. “Our great president”, said Lieutenant Governor Townsend, 'outlined our policy in international attain as one of good neighbors. That is the same policy which directs and guides us at home in our solution of the grave problems created in a changing world. “Good neighbors do not quarrel. Good neighbors do not kill each other. Good neighbors will aid others in times of distress. Good neighbors share their food. Good neighbors do not cheat each other. Good neighbors do not take advantage of the family next door. I “It is only in the spirit of the good I neighbor that we can permanently solve any tpr-oblem. If we lose this we start back to the jungles of hate. ;t is so difficult to climb the mountain heights. It is so easy to drop into the abyss.” Referring to the political campaign. Mr. Townsend said that i critics of the Democratic state and national administration were offering nothing except to take over the good works begun by the present administration and to wreck them. The Republican philosophy of government and its attitude toward men and women of the nation, he said, is most -aptly expressed in their command for the common people to root, hog or die. "When the people of Indiana and cf the nation,” Mr. Townsend continued. “entrusted the Democratic party four years ago with the enormous responsibility of leadership, we faced conditions bordering on chaos. There was want and misery on every hand. There were millions walking the streets seeking in vain for work. The market places and i the financial centers were on the border-line of bankrwptc-y. The distance to the breadline for many a citizen who had believe! h-imself prosperous was very short." o Sentiment Saves Bell Stanton, O.
