tor W Lee ODaniel. Port Worth,
appearing on the court house lawn
In a dual campaign speaking tour
with Hal H. Collins. Mineral Wells
business man. seeking the Demo-
cratic munition for governor The
campaigners were met by a large
crowd of Runnels county citizens
who roundly applauded the many
humorous thrusts of the two can-
didates
Senator O'Dunlel opened the
afternoon rally immediately fol-
lowing a brief musical program by
what his son Mike 11* r in e d as
"what is left of the Hillbilly
Band."
In his opening remarks Senator
O'Daniel said the party had come
from Coleman, where a big crowd
hud greeted them during the noon
hour
Labor leader racketeers, profes-
sional politicians and political
preachers out for hire, were given
attention by the senator. "This
rotten money of the labor leader
racketeers have taken from the
honest laboring people is being
used to buy seats in the national
congress,” Senator O’Daniel said.
“It has even been used to dip Into
the ministry.”
He said there ts only one Issue
and that Is. shull the United States
lose Its democratic form of gov-
ernment even though it win the
war He said he had supported
President Roosevelt in all war
measures and that the Job of
winning the war belonged to the
president He poked fun at
rationing and declared thut Texas
people will give down to their
last shirt to win the war. but they
are tired of being made fools of
by underlings
Candidate Collins launched a
bitter attack upon roadside inns
and honky tonks He said that if
he is elected governor he wilt do
his level best to make such "hell
dives” as fester Texas highways
obey the law or close them up.
He charged that the present gov-
ernor has wasted the taxpayers’
time and money by running over
the state attending ribbon cutting
parties, eating hot dogs and Inch-
thick steaks. He read from what
he said was the record of an oil
lease transaction between Oov.
Stevenson and a major oil com-
pany on the governor’s Kimble
county ranch. He charged that the
oil company had paid $21 per acre
for the lease and that Kimble
county ts not an oil producing
county—an unheard of price for
wildcat lease, he said
Accompanying Mr Collins was
his Crazy Water Gang, a musical
organization familiar to radio lis-
teners throughout the state
From Bulllngrr the campaigners
went on to San Angelo for a night
rally The remainder of the week
