The Lava Bears were -not rated a "powerful" squad, but were "potent," Anne. Queen of England, ruled from 1702 to 1714. A week ago we gave our recommendations on measures. We now present our recommendations on men, as follows: NATIONAL TICKET President and Vice President . - . - 1 Dewey and Bricker (12). STATE TICKET : . - . U. S. Senate, short term - ,- . Guy Cordon, incumbent ,(16)" - U. S. Senate, long term ., - . . . Wayne Morse (18) ' Representative in Congress Harris Ellsworth. incumbent (21Y State Treasurer ........ .' Leslie M. Scott (23); For Attorney General George Neuner, incumbent (24) State Representatives. - ' Frank J. Van Dyke (27) 0. H. Bengtson . (26) There is only one thing we don't like about the above list, they are all Republicans. However, that is the way our preferences came out this year, the first time in the paper's history. ...".'.' We grant the quality varies considerably but put ting: i ' Dewey versus Roosevelt, Bricker versus Truman, Cordon versus Mahoney, Morse versus Smith, Ellsworth versus Dover, , Scott versus Lambert, Neuner versus Spaulding, : (Van Dyke and Bengtson are unopposed.)' Our choice came but in each case the first named. In -some selections the decision was a close one, in others a runaway for the G.O.P., but in each and every case, considering all phases of the matter, the Republican candidate in our judgment had the better of it.' . . , And so, the active campaign ends today, as far as this paper is concerned, and our long-suffering read ers are no more relieved than we are. Tomorrow is wash-day and the next day the grand quadrennial battle of ballots begins from then on it is "Vox Populi Vox Dei" as far as we are concerned. Recommendations On Measures There have. been so many requests for a reprinting of the Recommendations on Measures of a week ago, and also for a complete list of the New Deal alphabet ical, bureaus, offered to' readers by maiV some time ago that both are produced below :' 1.

Special Levy for Improvement Jackson Coun '.. ty Farm, Vote 318, Yes. . v New Deal Bureaucracy A Bhort time ago we wrote an editorial entitled "Don't Look Back" regarding President Roose velt's broken campaign promises, particularly the promises he made in 1932, that if elected he would reduce the number of federal bureaus which, he said, the Hoover administration had saddled onto the long- suffering electorate. In naming the alphabetical bureaus of the New Deal showing this promise had not been kept, we only gave the letters not the titles because of lack of space. Since then there have been so many requests, for the COMPLETE list that we have decided to print them in this column today. As before stated this list only names the important bureaus, an unabridged list of the complete total would cover several pages. nere uie Key Dureaus are : FW A Federal Work Agency NRA National Recovery Act NIRA National Industrial Recovery Administration USMC United States Maritime Commission HOLC Home Owners Loan Corporation AAA Agricultural Adjustment Agency CCC Civilian Conservation Corps NYA National Youth Administration SS8 Social Security Board BWC Board of War Communication!
