DETROIT, Oct. 18. (United Press.) Wall Street seeks and hopes for an. election that will throw Camp Lewis Is Circled AH Day; Start South Scheduled Today. CAMP LEWIS, Oct 18.

(United Press.) Anchored to her mooring mast here late -this evening after a day of circling over it, unable to descend without releasing precious helium gaa, the navy dirigible Shenandoah will refueled tonight and leave at 9 tomorrow morning for San Eego, Calif. The dirigible manuvered up to mooring mast, approaching it irainst the breeze, while a battery of searchlights and smoke bombs the presidential race into congress, in the opinion of Henry Ford. 1 The motor king pins hope to Cool- ldge and says: "It is my belief that Wall. street In this has hoped the third natty movement would develop so strong In accepting the nomination for the office of governor of Wyoming at the hands of the Eepublican state convention and the Eepublican state committee, I desire to reaffirm my life long faith in the party of Lincoln and that grand galaxy of party successors given to the republic by the grand old Re-, publican party. The last official pronouncement by the party was at the state convention assembled at Lander on May 10th of this year.

The platform of principles adopSd on that occasion are vital today as they were then. They are Republican principles. That platform had my whole hearted approval then. It has my approval and support today as your candidate for governor. As a candidate, asking the suffrage of the people, I would not change a single declaration made by the party on May 10th.

I may, with perfect propriety, emphasize the planks ap-. proved then, and may add such new ones as seem to fit the situation upon which we have come in the present. I am in favor of a continuance of the policy of highway construction and maintenance as inaugurated and carried forward with such marked success by a previous Eepublican administration. The transportation problem in Wyoming cannot be solved without travelable highways open the year round. It would be my ambition, insofar as I would be assist, to bring the isolated communities of this state into direct communication with important centers through connection with the main north and south and east and west highways passing through the state.

I especially endorse the policy of all proper aid to the great industries of agriculture and livestock insofar as legislative action may be of general benefit. To the subject of irrigation I am thoroughly committed, and it would be my policy to further all proposals in this direction by local, state and national effort. The obvious wisdom of returning to the state by the federal government of a portion of the vast oil rovalties accrue ing for the benefit of the and the cause of education at once apparent. Such wise action is reflected by the learning shown by our public schools and our state university. Whatever, we of generation may contribute to the world's civilization, we must make sure that the generations which follow us have greater and more enlarged advantages than we have enjoyed, in order that the progress of the world may continued.

If it is the will of the people of. Wyoming that I am to be the governor, it shall be my first purpose to inausurate a strict economy in all departments of the state controlling expenditures of the peoples money and a determined effort to lighten the burdens of taxation, state and local, now demanding so great a share of the substance of the people. It shall be my greatest pride, if I be called to administer the giant ship to her fasten -It was not until 7:15 p. m. that the Sr.enanaoah was made fast.

A frngplank was lowered to the tower, which let Rear Admiral Moffett and lis crew, held captives of the sky til day long-, descend the mast.

Then the election would be thrown Into congress and these Interests hoped they could name a president of their own Ford said.

The president has displayed powers of saying "no" and has also shown that he will not be dominated by anyone. Ford believes. "This is not the kind "of 'president Wall street wants but it is the kind of president the people need tor ts is one them." he said. Ford took a. thrust at Senator Robert M.

LaFollette by saying he had "played the Wall street game knowingly or unknowingly." "IDnd you I am not saying that LaFollette knowingly i Wall street's candidate. I do say he Is acceptable to them. He is honest and he started with a bang but sentiment for him is subsiding. The trouble with him is' that he fans to- Aimiral W. A.

Moffett, chief of the Bureau of aeronautics, and the the public affairs of this great state, that there shall be absolute honesty in all departments of state government and integrity in public affairs shall become as a household word during my administration. It means little to say that you are in favor of labor. Any person can be that and still not be labor's friend. The real friend. of labor is the one who permits life long action to guarantee the friendship.

It is nothing to boast of, because it was right and proper and Christian to see to if, during my business career, to provide good conditions, adequate wages, prompt pay and season it all with cordial and friendly relations with those employed. If these things constitute a friend of labor, then I claim the friendship. Law enforcement has rather grown to be a state of mind. The moral let down, throughout the world, brought about by the brutalities of war affected America to a similar degree as the rest of the countries in more direct contact with ruthless operations. Disregard of law and violent so-called crime waves swept the world.

Executive authorities struggled in vain against a situation that reached almost to universal disgrace' and threatened public security if not civilization itself. The people are gradually returning to a more pronounced desire for morality and good order, and stricter observance" of the laws which afford safety to society. I am convinced that the; nation and the several states, already have too many laws. That we are regulated beyond reason, both in our personal citizenship and our business. That the people resent the multiplicity of statutes which say, "Thou shalt not" and which invade the business affairs of the people.

If congress and state legislatures could be "brought to abstain from law making by wholesale and get on a retail basis, the country would be better off. And if fifty per cent of the laws now upon the statute books could be repealed great relief and better understanding would ensue. In this nation we are not only legislated to extinction, but we are governed to I believe in law enforcement. Not of one particular law, of all laws; but I do not believe, in placing burdens and regulations upon the people. Eather would I trust them und' the demands of their enlightened public opinion to maintain good order and a state of morality in their own communities through local officers of the law.

The status of any community, with reference to morality, and law enforcement is the desires of the. people of that particular community, and since the "good" outnumber the "bad" in every community it is purely a matter of asserting themsel people, them-s selves must help create desirable conditions. Some of the provisions of the present primary election law-have become obnoxious to many of our people, who believe that some reformation or some amendment has become neces-. saryin the light of recent experience. In order to have voters participate in all elections and proposals submitted to them it is essential -that the machinery by which' the voice of the people may be heard is built so plain and simple," and so free from complication and liability to manipulation as to induce and attract voters to its use instead of repel them; In my humble opinion we do not secure a fair expression of the will of the people when at primaries and elections no more than fifty per cent of the qualified voters exercise their right of fran-.

chisc. In the coming election it is a matter of highest importance that the people prepare to perform their duties of citizenship by voting for the candidates of one party or another. It is of greater moment that theyrvqte than that' they vote for me or for my party. I would not undertake the administration of the public affairs of Wyoming, should I be elected, unless I am assured that I may have the full support and hearty co-operation of the people of this state, regardless of party and regardless of politics. After the election the public affairs of Wyoming became the business affairs of the people, to be directed and a8 scrupulously managed to the minutest detail as any private business affair within the state.

That the result will be favorable is the anticipaUon of oil men in general. The well is located on land held by the Jupiter Oil company which controls 2,560 acres of leases very favorably situated cm top of the dome. Should no disappointment attend the test, and none is expected the Jupiter Oil company will profit greatly by the finding.

The opening up of a new field on the Powder River structure will be of much moment to Casper to which it Is tributary. With such a highly responsible and conservative company a3 the Midwest undertaking the exploration there is every reason to look forward to ruch an northeast quarter of section 25-36-85. It will have for its objective the Sundance sands which are expected to lie not deeper than 3,000 feet. This will not be the first time that a hit has opened a hole on the Powder River structure, for Its history shows, that in the past three wells have been drilled there, all of them going Into the first Wail Creek sand and encountering gas in that for-mation. One of the three pushed down into Jhe second Wall Creek sand there also struck a flow of gas.
