CRtJCte, HASTINGS TO BEAR BURDEKS EOR DEMOCRATS Young Lieaguers Make Plans to' Ciapture State in Next Election Lawton, Sept. medicine making, the real purpicseof the Sixth district pow-wow of-the League ot tovaig compounded one prescription Saturday night and Sun- flay that Is guaranteed by to make the democrats fit to capture the state In next year's election. Butderi of nisjtt "Upott -thcr -8hotdderfr 61 two veterans," the prescription and then it proceeds to rec- Omrtkend Lee Cruce of Ardmore aa ipe party candidate for Unltied States senator and Obhgressman BUI Haat- ings of Tahlequaii for gvernor. The chief physician Who com- this prescription is Scott Ferris, national committeeman. Conclflslon Is Reached In the little Cbnferehces held Saturday night, following the annual banquet of the leaguers, and all day Sunday, the conclusion was reached that only by calling upon Cruce and tegs to lead the fight can the demo- ferats hope to really capture state offices next year.

But It Is not "certain that there will be a generally unanimous swallowing of this vial of medicine, especiaUy by the younger element of the party. They want a young man's ticket, and the Idea of Cruce and Hastings taking the lead, admittedly good leaders, does not win entire approval. However, that combination Is something more than a baUoon." Some of the youngsters know and bdmlt that the ticket next year bust composed of candidates who hav9 not participated in the recent factional and who stayed with the na- ticket last year. Cruce intro- rliiced Al Smith when the presidential nominee spoke In this state, and Hast- lags did some speaking for the ticket as well as for himself. So they qualify for the prescription that Ferris and his "elder statesmen" among the party doc- Sors believe must be taken, if the party is to regain Its pormal health next year.

Woods Is Candidate Out of the talks also has come an- cihSr candidacy, that of Ben Woods ol Oklahoma City for the party nomination lieutenant governor. He is to be a strictly busine.ss man's candidate for that office. Woods Is executive secretary for the State Furniture Dealers' association and also has similar positions with other state organizations of business He Is being groomed by about five of these organizations for lieutenant governor. The furniture dealers, the state organization of undertakers, the retail rner chants state organization, and some others. Woods admits, having urged him to enter the race and he is going to throw his hat in the ring, he says.

Sunday saw some discussion of the chairmanship with the growth ol talk that J. T. Blanton, formerly ot Pauls Valley and now of Oklahoma City s.hould be drafted for the difficult job r-f handling the state campaign. Blanton is wealthy, politically minded, a Sood organizer and Icnows how it Is done, his boosters say. The question is whether Blanton would undertake the lob.

The chairman, under the party tonstltutiori. must be selected not later than February 28. "Trial BaUoon." A real honest-to-goodness balloon" was sent up Sunday for O. H. Searcy of Tulsa for the party nomination for attorney-general.

He fought It out with Ed Dabney faur years and the result of that primary contest was the Dabney-Searcy contest which finally reached the supreme court and gave Dabney the nomination.
