For the Republican nomination, two “big names”. fighting out. One is Robert A. Taft of Cincinnati, son of President William Howard Taft; the other, Judge Arthur

H. Day of the State Supreme Court, who lives in Cleveland. Day is a

senatorial are

name to conjure with in Ohio, rep-|

resenting a judicial line long, prominent in the state's affairs. The judge, who is in his late forties, and a good campaigner, well-

known in the state, is given the edge |

over the son of the ex-President by

the political experts here. Mr. Taft, | however, is reported to be spending

consigerable money. Senator Bulkley has some coinpetition in his own party for renomination in the person of ex-Gov-ernor George White, still a rather popular figure in the state.

Senator Bulkley has the natural |

advantages of patronage and the like which go to the man in office, but he has not proved a very color-

ful or popular figure. He was swept |

into the Senate in 1930 to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator Theodore Murton (Republican), largely on the antiprohibition issue, and was elected to the regular sixyear term in the landslide.

Bulkley Gen Edge Senator Bulkley has been very attentive to the interests of his consituents of recent months, particularly in the disposition of Federal jobs. To curry favor with Ohio voters he proposed that the Government build eight billion dollars’ worth of trans-continental superhighways—some of them to cross

Onio, of course—a prospect that has met with short shrift in Washington. He is given the edge over ex-Gov-ernor White, but will have a real fight in November, according to indications now. He is campaigning on a support-Roosevelt platform, and that may pull him through. Both Mr. Taft and Judge Day are attacking the New Deal. Ohio waits expectantly to see whether the President will make any gesture for Senator Bulkley when he comes here July 9 to attend the Northwest Territory celebration. This fete, perhaps unfortunately for Mr. Bulkley, will take place in Mr. White's home town, Marietta, with Mr. White the chief functionary.

Davey Faces Fight

Governor Davey, who ran far behind Mr. Roosevelt in ’36—carrying the state by only 125000—is opposed for the Democratic nomination in the Aug. 9 primary by Charles Sawyer, weaithy Cincinnati lawyer who is a former Lieutenant Governor. The Governor is in the midst of controversy continually. For a time he was quarreling with Harry L. Hopkins and the WPA in Washington, and he has not shown much sympathy with President Roosevelt's national objectives, A grand jury is now investigating charges that civil service employees are being forced to contribute to his campaign fund, which would be a violation of law. The rate for contribution by state emplovees is reported to be 5 per cent of their pav. Schroer, State Liquor Stores chief in Cincinnati, was indicted on charges of soliciting State civil service emplovees for Davey campaign contributions. Whoever wins the Demoeratic governorship nomination must run in November against John W. Bricker, former Attorney General and unsuccessful against Mr. Davey.

dog bite victims against hyvdrophobia. Fach treatment requiring 14 injections, costs approximately $9, he said. Because many people are bitten by stray dogs that are never caught, each person must be treated on the possibility that the dog might have been mad, he said. More than 90 per cent of the persons treated at City Hospital probably are in no danger of infection but until the rabies germ is removed from all dogs, each person must be innoculated. Fatalities from dog bites are rare. The last hvdrophobia death was six years ago, Dr. Kohlstaedt said. Herman G. Morgan, Health Board secretary, said that in the 25 years he has been connected with the Board only six deaths have resulted from mad dogs.

| CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME . . . But Often Ends With the Promoter

A dubious promoter, to be successful, depends upon a good "dress up'' for his schemes. One of his favorites is a heart appeal. "Charity" tied up with a religious name, that of a hospital, or poor children, is often a "'winner''—for him.

Often playing upon the good name and works of legitimate relief agencies, his telephone and personal solicitors sell tickets or ‘advertising’ or solicit funds—all in the name of "charity." Of course his own 50 to 90 per cent "cut of the gross proceeds remains unrevealed.

The appearance of this Information Message in these columns is evidence that this publication subscribes to the principles of the Better Business Bureau, and co-operates with the Bureau in protect. tng you—even to the extent of refusing to accept the advertising of firms whose advertising and sales polis cies are proved by the Bureau to be contrary to the public interest.

For the sake of real charities themselves, which suffer when unscrupulous promoters take funds from kindly but uninformed donors, you should first investigate carefully all such appeals.

This Bureau has the facts available without charge to the public. It also has a successful plan for business houses to avoid "charity'' mistakes and waste. Get the facts before you give. Be sure bona fide charity and not a slick promoter gets the benefit of your mercy dollars.
