"Candidates aie having a hard time
trying to arnie inietest in p.ditirs
this year ami I helicve thev will have
an even harder time" said Aljjer Mel-
ton chairman ol the stale democratic
committee who was in Oklahoma 1'ity
loday.
"I am glad to see that people are
refusing to he ilistiaited from the main
issue by the il.inns of politician in
rtipport nf their personal ambition."
Mr. Melton mummed. "I andidate ate
not even findinir lliemselve welcome at
patriotic meetniKS and In (irady county
even the prei nn I councils refuse t.f
invite candidates to addiess them.
"The man alteady in office who seek
re-election ami the man who already
hat a statewide acquaintance has a
Rreat advanlaKe this year. The man
who ha to build up a fnllowinf; will
find hard sledding "
Mr. Melton is of the opinion that the
law which prohibits some officials from
succeeding themselves works a hard-
ship this year.
"The state will sustain a loss when
Governor Williams leave office" he
said. "He i a rear war governor and
hai been sitting tight on the lid."
