Paul M. Butler, National Chairman in a Chicago debate with his G.O.P. opposite number, Meade Alcorn, who forced Northern Democrat Butler to talk about Southern Democrat Orval Faubus of Arkansas, said: "We will not tolerate that kind of an un-American attitude in a party that represents the American people...

At the same time railroads that had been making money did even better. Northern Pacific reported that the September gross of $18,285,000 was the second best month in its history. But the business pattern was varied. Some companies were on the upswing while others were still looking for the turn...
