When Republican Presidential candidate Alfred Mossman Landon boards a train, leaves Topeka and carries his cause in person to the country, things go from bad to worse. Democrat Presidential candidate Franklin Roosevelt fanciers, accordingly, need feel no dismay that Landon is about to dash out to California and campaign through Pacific Coast territory that Roosevelt has ignored, considering it indubitably safe for the Democratic Party. Landon's fourth and semi-final campaign tour has been an incredible performance, full of blunders.
