...quit the House to run as the Republican nominee for Governor of New York against Alfred Emanuel Smith. Assertive and hard-hitting, he lost all chance of victory when he declared: "There is no truth in the man [Smith] in private or public life." That gave Democrat Smith his chance to stage a highly effective scene with his wife about his private life. Nominee Mills went under by 250,000 votes. Four months later President Coolidge rewarded him with the Undersecretaryship of the Treasury...
...great convenience to Polish pigeons. Mrs. Wilson, Poland's President Ignacy Moscicki, U. S. Ambassador John North Willys, Auguste Cardinal Hlond, Mr. & Mrs. Bernard Mannes Baruch and Daughter Belle piled wreaths about Statue Wilson's ankles. Out by the gate was a smaller bust of Democrat Wilson's faithful lieutenant Herbert Clark Hoover. President Hoover, now unalterably Republican, sent a message: "It has been my own good fortune to visit Poland. It has been my good fortune to meet the illustrious citizen to whose inspiration this gathering is due. It has been my good fortune to know...

Right now he is guiding Dallas in the expenditure of $25,000,000 on civic improvements. His varied interests go further: fraternal work (32° Mason, Shriner), religion (Baptist), politics (Democrat). A strong argument for his election as A. M. A. president was his large scale building experience. He will supervise the construction of a new A. M. A. headquarters building in Chicago. The diversion which enthralls him most is golf, and once golf awarded him its most coveted prize: four...
...matter what the circumstances, the general tone of these forecasts is and remains the same. Last night, from one side of the campaign came the headline, "Would defeat wet Democrat by 10,000,000." Diametrically opposite in viewpoint is the opinion, "House sees Democratic sweep in 1932." The whole situation is, as a matter of fact, utterly simple. The Republican prosperity bubble, thoroughly exploded, has undoubtedly proved the downfall of the party in power. The Democrats, headed by Roosevelt, will bridge the arid canyon with a wet plank; Prosperity is bound to return; the farmers are to receive their...
