...editorials themselves and criticizing those handed in by the candidate. During the evening some of the other editors will drop in and glance at the eds. In nine cases out of ten some argument as to a certain point in an editorial will ensue, resulting in either partial or entire revision. There is no place where frank criticism is more in evidence than the editorial room of the CRIMSON. Although each editorial which appears in the morning is largely the work of the one man they have all had the benefit of discussion by members of the board

...Governor. Now he had definite plans for re-entering public life, to be sure, but it took the cajoling of his wife and all his friends to induce him to make this "sacrifice." He had no assurance that the ardors of campaigning would not completely erase the partial recovery he had effected through seven long bitter years. If ever a man was "drafted" for an office that man was "Frank" Roosevelt...

Brothers, Last week Iron Age, whose subscribers are hard hit by the stoppage of railroad buying, said: "It is believed the railroads must follow whether they obtain partial relief through rate advances or not."
