PAGE TWO Plain Dealer Election R WHAT PEOPLE SAY OF RECALL MOVE John Beat, here for six years, said: "Membership in the Klan or any other organization is not a cause for recall. It's nobody's business whether a man belongs to the Klan, the K. of C. or whatnot. The same old crowd is back of this." J. P. Sebastian, speaking individually, said: "Emphatically the recall of the present councilmen is ridiculous, inasmuch as it is simply dirty politics. The recall movement is being carried on by those who cannot even state any charge against the councilmen, outside of the fact that they personally consider them Klansmen. Now what underlies it all? It is because a certain political machine is smarting under defeat in the last city election. It is because bootleggers can no longer thrive in Anaheim without grave danger of paying the penalty of their crime. They are active now and on what side? Are not the most prominent anti-administration men the same men who have always aligned themselves with and been active for the old machine crowd? I grant that they have added a few new tools in the form of a few well-meaning men." E. M. SCHLOTTER—"I haven't signed anything one way or the other and I'm not going to, but I can't see any reason for a recall. What have they done? What good would result from such an attempt?" S. R. WALTERS—"It looks to me like a case of a few disgruntled politicians attempting to stir up discord in the community for their own selfish ends." Demo Candidate Votes 'er Straight LOCUST VALLEY, N. Y., Nov. 4.—With his campaign for the presidency ended, John W. Davis today utilized his prerogative as a private citizen to join the nation's army of voters. The nominee obeyed his own injunction to vote early, by being among the first arrivals at the polling place, in this village's little white frame "neighborhood house." An army of camera men, newspapermen and curious villagers, greeted him on his arrival and watched him enter the booth. Davis voted the straight Democratic ticket from the presidency on down the line to the village constable. He then returned to his home here to spend the day in seclusion. A few personal friends were to spend the afternoon with him while he planned to get election returns tonight at the home of Frank L. Polk, in New York.

LaFollette leaders said they were certain to hold their in Wisconsin and some northeastern states and that they would others. The situation is complicated by the number of candidates and cross endorsements by LaFollette or Progresser-Labor leaders and pendents.

In states there are four or five candidates for each congressional seat apportioned to the These include Republican, Liberal, LaFollette or Progresser-Labor, Socialist, non-lisan league, Prohibition, pendent and Third Party. Outside of Wisconsin, ten Progressives and one Stist are running as LaFollette there are avowed program candidates as follows: Massachusetts 2; Pennsylvania 3; Idaho 1; New Mexico New York, 1. I grant that they have added a few new tools in the form of a few well-meaning men." E. M. SCHLOTTER—"I haven't signed anything one way or the other and I'm not going to, but I can't see any reason for a recall. What have they done? What good would result from such an attempt?" S. R. WALTERS—"It looks to me like a case of a few disgruntled politicians attempting to stir up discord in the community for their own selfish ends." Ray Thompson, of Thompson & Brown, confectioner, said of the recall: "I don't think much of it. I don't see what they are going to gain by the recall." $500 LIQUOR FINE A. W. Stark, living near Hanson Station, was fined $500 today in Judge Kuchel's court following his arrest Saturday night by members of the sherrif's force, who charge that they found a small still and several gallons of liquor in his possession.

On the basis of this calculation, the president's total electoral vote would be $988, or 132 more than a bare majority. L. A.

STORE HERE BEATS OTHERS ELSEWHERE Anybody who supposes that Anaheim is suffering more than other cities of the southland from the descent from the peak of 1922 prosperity has another guess coming, if the business of the Piggly Wiggly stores is an index. The local store is doing as much business as any of the dozen or so stores started at the same time and is doing better than most of them, according to Manager L.G.

Letters From People The Plain Dealer: I wish to correct false statement which appeared in Sunday Bulletin as to Frank Wilson having me before Judge Kuechel and judgment being in favor of Wilson. If the Bulletin would look up court records they would know what they have printed is a falsehood. Wilson's claim was settled before the Labor Commissioner in Los Angeles, Oct. 30th, and not according to his statement. My canceled checks show he was paid in full Oct. 18th. I owed him for two days, 19th and 20th, and told Wilson I would see that he received pay for the two days the following Saturday, Oct. 25th. If Wilson had acted as a gentleman there would not have been any trouble. The Bulletin seems to think they have done Wilson a great injustice—but they did not give one of their first customers and a tax payer Anaheim a thought. Such an article as was published to injure my character, to injure my character. This letter is written to give my friends the whole truth of the matter.—GUY CUMMINS.

Salary Drops to $12 a Week As Doc Stork Brings Triplets VIEWS IN BRIEF Slaughtered to make an American holiday—Jimmy Murphy, Joe Boyer, Dario Resta and nearly a dozen other victims of automobile speedway racing in the good year 1924. Take away the probability—almost certainty—that one or more drivers will be killed or maimed, and speedway racing is a tame sport. The prospect of witnessing a tragedy is what draws the crowds. Has not civilization advanced far enough to frown on this and other forms of "dare-devil" stuff. Our forefathers fought against taxation without representation. We would fight today if any foreign or domestic force should attempt to deprive us of the ballot. Yet, in the last presidential election only 49 per cent of eligible citizens voted, and in many primary elections less than 25 per cent cast their ballots. This indifference to one of our fundamental civic duties is a menace to representative government. Those who deliberately disfranchise themselves are unworthy of citizenship. Mrs. Lenore Lindsey of Toledo, Ohio, who has been under suspicion for nine years in connection with the disappearance of $24,000 worth of bonds belonging to an organization of which she was secretary, has been vindicated by the finding of the bonds behind the drawer of the safety deposit box in which they had been placed. One more proof of the unreliability of circumstantial evidence, no matter how conclusive it may appear on its face.
