Show THE CITIZEN 3 CLARK MAGNANIMOUSLY REPUBLICANS ARE WARNED BY PLEADS FOR PARTY UNITY CHAIRMAN CARL R. MARCUSEN Country Needs Hoover and President Must Have Solid Support for Business Prosperity and Social Welfare. r SUPPORT for the URGING state and national tickets, J. Reuben Clark, Jr., Undersecretary of State, Washington, D. C., has written a letter to Carl R. Marcusen, Republican state chairman, expressing regret over his inability to come to his home state to take part in the last weeks of the campaign. Until a jp.w days ago, Mr. Clark thought it possible for him to return to Utah to aid in rolling up big majorities for all G. 0. P. candidates, but his proposed trip was abandoned when Secretary Frank B. Kellogg said affairs of State made it impossible for the undersecretary to leave Washington. The undersecretary makes a special plea for the election of Utahs Republican congressional candidates and for William H. Wattis, Republican candidate for Governor. Mr. Clark was defeated for the Republican nomination for United States Senator, yet earnestly urges support for Ernest Bamberger. The undersecretarys letter to Chairman Marcusen, was, in part, as follows: As you will remember, I tried to express to the Convention, just after the nomination of Mr. Bamberger, my sentiments with reference to the attitude which should be taken at the election this fall by the members of the Republican party. As I recall it, I stated at that time that, as a defeated candidate for nomination, I wished to say that the party was bigger than any man in it, and the welfare of the State and of the Nation more vital than the Party; that it was one of the glories of our free institutions that, though we engaged in spirited rivalries for political preferment, yet when the choice had been made by a majority, the minority yielded, abiding by the result; and that our free institutions would continue to exist only so long as the citizens of the country yielded obedience to this principle. I then bespoke for Mr. Bamberger the support of all those who had honored me by work-fo- r my own nomination. I still have these sentiments and maintain these principles. In my view, the need of a Republican victory in the approaching election is imperative. The nation as it exists today is founded upon Republican policies. From all one can gather here, the election of Mr. Hoover and Mr. Curtis is assured. For more than a quarter of a century no man in the Senate has done more to uphold and advance policies than Senator Smoot.

He is again asking the citizens of Utah to send to the Senate some one who will vote wtih him, not against him. Mr. Bamberger hafs promised the people of the State that if elected he will vote with Senator Smoot. Senator Smoots service to the party, to the State, and to the Nation justifies him in the expectation that all of us Republicans in Utah will so cast our votes as to grant his request. Nor should the Republicans of the State stop at this, because it is also of paramount importance that they shall return to Congress our two Republican Congressmen, Leatherwood and Colton, who have for years served the State and the Nation with credit and honor. Finally, Republican voters cannot discharge their full obligations to the party and to the State by voting for Mr. Hoover and Mr. Curtis, and by electing the Congressional ticket. They must also, if Utah is to function in the highest interests of the people, elect a full State ticket from Governor Wattis down to the last man named on the ticket. I earnestly urge the Republicans of Utah to vote for those who are candidates of the Republican party. With every personal good wish, Faithfully yours, J. REUBEN CLARK, Jr. (Signed) WAR VETS IN LINE. With meetings planned in every county in the state, the World War Veterans Republican Club is waging an earnest campaign, according to J. C. Littlefield, former adjutant of Ogden Post, who .is directing the activities of the various organizations.

SALT LAKE CITY Vigorous nial of rumors of a deal between Ernest Bamberger, Republican nominee for Senator, and Governor George H. Dem, Democratic candidate for is made by Republican State Chairman Carl R. Marcusen. In a letter to party leaders of Davis County, Chairman Marcusen took cognizance of the persistent reports that a trade has been made between Dem and Bamberger wherein Ernest pledges support for Dem in return for the governors support. I want to denounce now and for the Marall time such propaganda, cusen letter says, and brand it as absolutely false. Ernest Bamberger and William H. Wattis are campaigning as a team for the election of the whole ticket, and each in every public address has particularly stressed de- re-electi- on, TOWER. PUBLICAN TICKET. made a GOVERNOR SMITH statement to the effect that Mr. Hoover had not made himself sufficiently clear at Elizabethton, Tenn., on the Muscle Shoals question. The attack of the Governor brought forth the following statement from Mr. Hoover: Some discussion has arisen in connection with Muscle Shoals. I stated at Elizabethton that I do not favor any general extension of the Federal Government into the operation of business in competition with its citizens. I further stated that there are for the tallest and largest building in the world, the Chicago Apparel Mart, have been let to the Starrett Building Company. The contracts total $45,000,000, and the height of the mart will be 880 feet, 88 feet taller than any existing commercial building. lo- cal instances where the Government must enter the business field as a byproduct of some great major purpose, such as improvement in navigation, flood control, scientific research or natural defense; but they do not vitiate the general policy to which we should adhere. The news item from Knoxville specifically states: Asked concerning the reference in his speech to the desirability of Government ownership in certain instances, Mr. Hoover said: You may say that means Muscle Shoals. There is no question of Government ownership about Muscle Shoals, as the Government already owns both the power and nitrate plants. The major purposes which were advanced for its construction were navigation, scientific research and national defense. The Republican administration has recommended that it be dedicated to agriculture for research purposes ad- dition to its national defense reserve.

This whispered morsel of political gossip started about ten days ago after the Republican state convention. Emphatic denials have been made by Mr. Bamberger and Governor Dem. The story grew until Davis County Republican leaders carried it to Chairman Marcusen and the state committee. The chairman tabbed it as absurd and ridiculous, but, he added in his letter, it must be denied and ridiculed. The letter was sent out from the state committee headquarters to members of the Davis County Republican committee, candidates, precinct chairmen and others, with instructions to nail the rumor at once and RADDATZ ENDORSES THE RE- MUSCLE SHOALS. and development of fertilizers, in TO TOP THE WOOLWORTH the necessity of the others election.

PREDICTING a sweeping victory for the entire Republican ticket in his county as well as the state in general, E. J. Raddatz, of Tintic, one of the leading mining men of Utah, Wednesday called at Republican state hr for a visit with Chairman Carl R. Marcusen. Utahns need a protective tariff more than anything our government I can can give, Mr. Raddatz said. not imagine the people of our state voting for a candidate or a party whose policy is to destroy rather than protect Utah's products and indusad-quart- ers tries. Mr. Raddatz declared Juab county will roll up a majority for Herbert Hoover and the Republican state ticket even larger than in former years.
