MEDFORD MAIL TRTBUXE, ftfEBFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 2, 1931. PAGE NINE H. 10 Prominent Republican De clares Loyalty to State Should Be Held Above Loyalty to Party Machine PICCARD HURT IN BALLOON LANDING OBRVAIS. Ore., Nov. (Bpl.) n place loyalty to the state and to Its people ahead of loyalty to party," aald Senator Sam H. Brown, Repub lloan. in a recent address here. He added: "If by chance, men who are un fit happen to receive the party's nomination, remember that your duty to your atate and lta people takes precedence over your loyalty to the party.' Supplementing his radio talk of October 11, the Republican senator from Marlon county again assailed Joe B. Dunne. Republican candidate for governor, and some of .his so called "Four Horsemen." He continued: "Party loyalty has taken on a dif ferent meaning to me after years of service as a member of the legis lature. "Ab I sat In the legislative halls by day and In the committee rooms tov nlKht and witnessed behind the scenes the working of the party bosses who are the leaders of this invisible government, I was seized by a revulsion of feeling that de- J manded that I take no part In the i betrayal of my etate. I "Behind locked doors- these bosses meet and map out ways and means to exploit the state and Its people. Despite the protests of loyal and honest members of the legislature, i who really have the Interest of the I people at heart, these bosses pick ! out hirelings who can be relied upon to do their bidding and can nearly always muster up enough strength to parry out their wishes. "From these meetings spring the bppresstve laws against he Interest ttf the people. "Under no form of government and under no party will there be good government unless, and until, the people select competent officials. A competent official la one who has the ability to understand his duttes land to perform them efficiently. He must be honest, and he cannot be honest if his official conduct la guided by political bosses or politi cal Interest, either for himself or for bis party. "In the selection of our governor H must be remembered that he Is practically one-third of the legisla ture, and on his shoulders rests the responsibility .of helping to enact honest laws In the interest of the ntlre state. It Is also his duty to veto vicious legislation that is against those Interests of the people. "Ha must be courageous, one will ing to fight, one aggressive In the work of reform. If by chance men who are unfit happen to receive your party's nomination, men who never led or were a party to any reform movement, who never de nounced graft, who always have been regulars and placed party organiza tion above the public welfare, who are supported by a gang of political buccaneers, who see In the admin istration of government, not the wel fare of the people but an oppor tunity to despoil for private gain REMEMBER THAT your duty to your state and its people takes pre cedence over your loyalty to the party." r i : U f nv tt m . 65 T IBS 7, -4 Dr. Jean Plccard (right) suffered a sprained foot when his strato sphere balloon crashed Into a tree top near Cadiz, 0.. and Mrs. Plccard (leaning from gondola) was scratched about the arms.

He is confi dent that out of the 20 he will close a deal and he says for cash. - o This Would Indicate the Demand for Real Estate Is Growing NOW judging from this, might be the time to begin advertising the properties you have listed. We can not tell what the man with money is thinking about these days. He knows that it is the buyers' market. He also knows that prices are lowest they have been in years, . and that there is little chance of them going lower. It may be that now is the time for action. At the small cost of Mail Tribune Classified advertising, it would not take a large deal to create an advertising fund large enough to "carry on" for a whole year.
