CONVENTIONS
PLANS SHAPE
UP RAPIDLY
Republican Attacks
Are ‘Fly Specks’
Farley Says In His
Hartford Speech
WASHINGTON May 7. With
the June conventions drawing close
both parties pushed ahead Thurs-
day with plans to greet their presi-
dential and vice presidential nom-
inees in huge outdoor ceremonies.
Republican Chairman Henry P.
Fletcher announced that provision-
■ al arrangements have been made
to use the municipal stadium at
Cleveland conveniently located
near the convention hall to notify
the party’s nominees of the con-
vention’s choice.
The democrats previously an-
nounced plans to notify President
Roosevelt of his renomination with
a ceremony at Franklin Field Phila-
delphia.
‘Approves’ Precedent
“Strange as it may seem” Fletcher
said “I approve the precedent es-
tablished by Mr. Roosevelt in going
to the convention to receive the
notification of his nomination.”
(Mr. Roosevelt set a precedent by
going to speak to the delegates at
Chicago after his nomination four
years ago.)
The Cleveland stadium seats 80-
000. Fletcher said the republican
plans are conditional on the desires
of the successful candidates for the
republican nomination.
Other political developments in-
cluded a comment by a republican
and a democrat on a recent declara-
tion of President William Green of
the American Federation of Labor
and a speceh by Democratic Chair-
man James A. Farley asserting that
the east had benefitted from farm
relief because of “enormously in-
creased’’ shipments of manufactured
goods to the west.
President Green said recently that
he favored the re-election of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. Chairman Fletcher
in a statement Wednesday night as-
serted that the repubican national
committee “attaches no particular
significance" to this because Green
has “always been a democrat” while
the Federation itself is non-partisan.
Labor Is Criticized
Colonel Henry Breckinridge anti-
■ New Deal democrat said in an ad-
dress at Akron O. that Green was
making a mistake in putting “labor
into partisan politics.”
Farley in his Hartford speech
said attacks on the administration
were “fly specks on the fair can-
vas on which a statesman has in-
scribed a wonderful recovery for a
shaken people.”
The South Dakota primary in
which an uninstructed slate claimed
by forces of Gov. Alt M. Landon of
Kansas contested with one sup-
porting Senator Borah of Idaho
continued to attract attention be-
cause of the closeness of the vote.
With only seventy-five of the
state's 1958 precincts unreported
the vote for the former slate was
42327 as compared with 41425 for
the latter.
In California the republican un-
instructed slate with all but 546
of the 11.162 precincts reporting had
337945 votes compared with 250-
349 for the slate pledged to Landon.
On the democratic side President
Roosevelt had 768617 votes to 58897
for representative John McGroarty
and 101403 for Upton Sinclair.

(Special to The Herald)
HARLINGEN May 7.—Last week
C. L. Brooks barber in the Reese-
Wil-Mond shop started to read an
item in the paper about a naval
airplane accident at sea. There was
an interruption and he never turned
back to the item. That afternoon
the same thing happened.
Wednesday morning he got a
letter in which he learned that one
of the flyers was Jack Wilson 36
his nephew.
Wilson was living with Brooks in
1918 when he enlisted in the navy.
He was intensely interested in naval
aviation and soon attained the rank
of lieutenant commander in charge
of a squadron. He is the son of Mrs.
M. E. Hays of Logansport. La.
. Wilson chief aviation pilot and
Lieutenant William R. McCurdy
were observing submarine torpedo
practice near Honolulu when then-
plane dived into the sea and both
were lost.
Co-Operative
Loans Still
Are Available
(Special to The Herald)
SAN BENITO May 7. —Almost
half a million dollars now available
for co-operative loans in Texas
and Oklahoma will be diverted to
other uses unless it is loaned be-
fore the end of June according to
information sent W. L. Johnson
supervisor for the Resettlement
Administration in Cameron and
Willacy counties.
Most of the loans so far have been
made for pure-bred sires and farm
machinery. The loan is usually
made to one man and his neighbors
sign an agreement to use the
animal or machinery t at specified
prices.
Many other types of co-operative
enterprises may be financed through
such loans including syrup mills
feed mills laundries canning plants
meat curing plants threshing out-
fits and facilities for grading and
shipping farm products such as
fruits vegetables eggs and poultry.
Loans may also be made for mem-
bership in existing cooperative
associations. In one county a loan
is now being considered which
would enable borrowers to become
stockholders in a co-operative hos-
pital. ;
Borrowers must either be farmers
already receiving aid from the Re-
settlement Administration or unable
to obtain the desired financial as-
sistance from any other public or
private agency. The others who
participate in the enterprise need
not be borrowers from Resettlement
provided they are in the low-in-
come class who would otherwise not
be able to obtain the sort of service
provided.

Clothing Burns
(Special to The Herald)
HARLINGEN. May 7. — A closet
full of clothing was destroyed by
fi^p at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C.
A. Quigley 114 E. Filmore Tuesday
afternoon. Mrs. Quigley lighted
matches in the closet to look for
clothing earlier in the afternoon 1
the fire department reported and
it is presumed that the blaze was
started in this way.

rels.
CONSTIPATION MAY
CUT DOWN YOUR
ENJOYMENT UF LIFE
Long Neglected It May Even
Develop Serious
Consequences
Common constipation* keeps you
from being at your best. It causes i
discomfort and may lead to head- !
aches and loss of appetite. You feel |
below par lack your usual vigor.
So many people treat this con-
dition as a slight matter. But it
can be the starting point of serious
trouble. It contributes to a general
run-down condition. With lowered
bodily resistance you are more
likely to pick up the first chance
infection you meet in your every-
day routine.
Common constipation is due usu-
ally to insufficient “bulk” in meals.
Fortunately a delicious cereal sup-
plies gentle “bulk.” Within the
body the “bulk” in Kellogg’s All-
Bran absorbs moisture forms a
soft mass and cleanses the system.
Serve All-Bran as a cereal with
milk or cream or cook into muffins
breads etc. Two tablespoonfuls
daily are usually sufficient. Stub-
born cases may require All-Bran \
oftener. If not relieved this way
consult your doctor.
All-Bran is guaranteed by the
Kellogg Company as an effective
laxative food for constipation.*
Sold by all grocers. Made by Kel-
logg in Battle Creek.
