Manager UTAH DEMOCRATS ARE NEW DEALERS The Democratic convention in Ogden Saturday should not have left any doubt in the mind of a doubter where the party in Utah stands so far as the President and his New Deal program is concerned. It adopted a ringing resolution instructing the Utah delegates to the Philadelphia convention for Franklin D. Roosevelt, and endorsed the Presidents New Deal program in no uncertain terms. The delegates also viewed Utahs senior senator. William II. King, as an anti-NeDealer when they refused to name him as one of the delegates-at-larg- e to the national convention. The action of the delegates in refusal to consider the senior senator as a delegate is proof positive that Utah Democracy is progressive and that it will not condone false campaign promises. Senator King is considered an enemy of the administration and the Utah Democrats took no chances in having him on its delegation to Philadelphia. They wanted a delegation that stands for the New Deal. This incident should serve as a lesson to those who were elected to office in Utah as Democrats that if they want to continue in good graces with Utah Democrats they must adhere to campaign promises, party platform pledges and hew to the line on the New Deal program. The editor of the Utah Labor News, more than any other person in Utah, knows that the senior senator has turned thumbs down on the promises he made prior to his election in 1934. The senators ap- iroval of the well known Twenty Reasons .Why I Am for Senator under the signature of the editor were published in the Utah Labor News in good faith. On top of it the senator made his campaign for reelection on the strength of the New Deal program of President Womens projects 85,500,000 71,250,000 85,500,000 85,500,000 Miscellaneous work projects National Youth Administration Rural habilitation and relief to farmers Total - $1,425,000,000 manufacturer to show a drop. independent Smaller, makers are also going ahead in Happenings That Affect the Din- company with their big brothers.
