Street shoes or any other type of shoe with sharp edges which may mar the surface arc pot to be worn on the new surfacing, it was said.

Mr. Smith, candidate for the Cnited States Senate, has branded the Brannan Plan as a ‘fantastic scheme” which would "well-nigh wreck the national treasury.” It could also well-nigh wreck what little balance is left in American econ omy today after so many years of tv.ir emergency and near-socialistic govern mental planning. The farmers need a friend in Wash ington who will not run off after every crack-brained panacea that is dreamed up by organized spending. Mr. Smith is in favor of something like the present program for the to bacco and cotton farmers. This is a pro gram not cooked up in a Washington of fice overnight, hut worked out the hard way over a number of years by the trial and error method. Mr. Smith is winning many friends in the present campaign by his conserva tism, by his unwillingness to he hur ried into endorsing radical departures from the tried and true path of normal Americanism. Ilis steadfast opposition to the Bran nan Farm Plan, which would let pro duction run wild and would have the farmers workign for the government instead of themselves, is characteristic of his middle-ol'-the-roud sanity. And in these days of wild Ideas, many of which could ruin the country, sanity is what we need nothing else more than in a United States Senator. WILUS SMITH SAYS: “Continuation of a successful program depend* upon keeping the administration of the pro a ran, close to the fanners. I shall keep in constant contact ttillt the fanners and trill, their organizations and support those measure* trhich trill ten,I to (five the rank an,I file of farmers a voice in this program."
