VOTE WITH DEMOS MEETING IS TOLD By J' P. (P) Graham The Demos met again on Wednesday evening Nov. 1, in the democratic headquarters building, 312 E. Main street A large number of registered republicans present at this meet ing, declared their intention of supporting President Roosevelt for another term. Among those present were State Committeeman Moore Hamilton, State Commltteewom an Mary Kelly, Congressional Committeeman Lester Mathes and Congressional Committee woman Marie Ulrich. Rawles Moore gave an Inspir ing talk, in which he described the difference between republi can and democratic laeas ox how our nation should be governed. Mrs. Dlanne M. Bonflls of Kansas City and Independence, Mo., stated that she is "personal ly acquainted with Senator Truman, and that during this acqquaintance, which has lasted a lifetime, there has never been a time that his character has been attacked until noV, that he is running for vice president of the U. S." Mrs. Bonflls states that she has full confidence in Senator Truman's integrity, and in his ability to function in the highest position this land can bestow upon him. There was an optimistic spirit prevailing at the meeting; the general feeling being that In spite of the some 1700 major ity, the republicans have, in the registration in Jackson county, the odds are still on F. D. R. to carry the state; we believe that enough registered republicans are intending to vote for F.D.R. all over the nation, to give him a comfortable majority on Nov. 7th. This wiU be the last meeting of the Democratic Central com mittee until after election day; there is nothing .left for the campaigners to do now, but keep a stiff upper Up. We sa lute the next president of the United States, no matter who wins. More Oregonlans Pay Income. Tax Salem, Ore., Nov. S U.
