Democrats Plot Platform As Women Lead State Drive
The Democratic gathering in the high school auditorium featured Mrs. Galbraith praising women’s crucial role in victory and delegates hearing that loyal, hard working women can secure success. Judge Clarence W. Meadows and State Chairman Joe L. Smith worked through the night on the platform, aiming to answer Republican charges of partisan school control. The panel planned to mirror the Chicago national platform and include veterans aid, reduced state spending, and retention of top state workers. National figures like Broughton and Arthur B. Koontz were set to address a crowd that began registering yesterday with hundreds already in attendance.
