Comrade Broun
Adams, Franklin P. | October 1, 1930 issue

add to cart   close window

Heywood Broun, announced his candidacy for the U.S. Congress from the Seventeenth District on the Socialist ticket. He voiced his opinion, in what those who know him call the publicity of his home circle, that maybe the New York Telegram might object to his candidacy, especially a Socialist candidacy. Broun might lose his job, on the "Telegram" and then the radio people might not like his socialism either, and he might get fired. Of course, Broun did not believe that a Scripps-Howard newspaper would fire him just for being a candidate on the socialist ticket.
