Skepticism Grows Over Roosevelt Liberalism, Dr Sees
Dr Glenn Frank, chairman of the Republican program committee, warns of a ground swell of skeptical concern about Roosevelt era policies.

New Head Of Fair Board May Be Elected Tonight
Lorain County Agricultural Society may elect a new president at an adjourned meeting at the fair grounds tonight. The group has no president after William Struck resigned to avoid paying about 1800 in debts. Secretary Robert Agate says directors may also discuss plans for this year’s fair. The society owes about 24000 on a mortgage to The Elyria Savings and Trust Company and about 3000 in accrued interest. County officials have refused extra aid and suggested discontinuing the fair or merging with Wellington. The first county fair was held in 1846.
