As might have been expected, the first installments of
the life of Wilbur L. (W. Lee) O’Daniel to be published in
the present campaign for Governor have been greeted by
cries of “mud-slinging” from O’Daniel partisans. They have
not hesitated to claim that revelations of O’Daniel failures
and shortcomings hurt the candidates opposing him, but de-
spite its plausibility at first blush, this claim will not stand up.
The simple fact is that O’Daniel came into the race as
a political unknown, offering a change from a rather usual
campaign. As long as he had not gained enough strength to
draw opposition he had clear sailing. When he became a po-
tential factor in the race, the light was turned upon the record
which, by inference alone, was supposed to be all that was
fine, clean and outstanding. O’Daniel, the Ideal Candidate,
was revealed to be O’Daniel the flour jobber, gypsying from
state to state and finally rising into prominence on the rise
of radio entertainment.
As long as he was merely peddling flour not even his
competitors bothered to look him up, for the character and
record of the man behind the unseen microphone had nothing
to do with the quality of the product he offered for sale. In
politics, however, it is different. A man cannot make a good
Governor because he sells a good flour, picks a good banjo
or is good at card tricks. The Governor can be no better than
the man, and for this reason O’Daniel’s past was made the
subject of inquiry.
It is the duty of ANY candidate for Governor to protect
the people of his state from electing a man on misrepresenta-
tions. He therefore would owe it to them to expose the hoax
even though it should cost him votes personally or even ruin
his own chances.
We do not believe, however, that the people of fexas are
so lacking in understanding or gratitude that they would re-
ward such a service in such a manner, so long as the candidate
performing it offers real facts in evidence and not merely
psrsoiicil abuse
William McCraw has confined his exposure of the O’Dan-
iel myth to the facts, and that’s the real reason he is holding
his strength in the present campaign.
The Carrollton Chronicle is au-
thorized to announce the following
candidates who seek nomination for
office on the Democratic Ticket,
I subject to the action of the Demo-
i cratic Primary which will be held in.

An automatic electric refrigerator takes
no notice of outside temperatures. It may
be up to a hundred, but inside the refrig-
erator it's the correct coolness to keep
foods properly. There's never a doubt
about the milk or the meat. Butter doesn't
waste away. Leftovers may be saved and
made up into appetizing dishes. An elec-
tric refrigerator may be purchased on
easy terms . . . it's a convenience your
family should not be without.

There may be places in
Texas which are very strong
for W Lee O’Dgniel for gov-
ernor, but we hardly think
that this part of Dallas county
is one of them. Mr. O’Daniel
is possibly a good man, and
we feel certain that we could
get along under his govern
[mentwere he to be elected as
Sour governor, but the sober
j second thought of the country
is hardly for him for governor,
and many of our people have
already gotten their sober
second thought. It takes so-
ber thought to select a man to
head this state government.
