F ki AD GOP PRESSES ON SIX DEMOCRATS RAP LANDON ACCEPTANCE Roosevelt Called ‘Poor Finish- er’ by Pinchot in State- ment at Topeka Washington, July 29.—(7)—A pres- {dential campaign which is warming up much earlier than usual Wednes- day gave the country’s voters several arguments to ponder. The New Deal, after some days of comparative quiet, renewed its firing ‘Tuesday night, with radio speeches by six Democratic governors attacking the acceptance speech of Gov. Alf M. Landon. The musketry from Topeka continued, with a statement by Former Gov. Gifford Pinchot that President Roosevelt is a “poor finisher.” The statements of the governors, radioed from their home states, ranged from the declaration of Gov- ernor Earle of Pennsylvania that the Landon speech was featured by “vague, far-reaching indefinite gen- eralities” to the complaint of Gov. Horner of Illinois that Landon was “silent as to the policies he intended to carry out.” Says Landon Confused Governor Green of Rhode Island said the Landon speech seemed “con- fused.” The people of Oregon, said Governor Martin of the state, “see no reason for substituting something else for the New Deal.” Governor Cochran of Nebraska crit- icized the fiscal record of the Lan- don administration, saying that under it Kansas “has been far from a self- sustained state.” Governor Herring of Towa said the New Deal farm “has given us a fair break” and “we decline to be detoured down the side Toad of political promises.” Pinchot, visting Landon, pledged his support to the Republican nominee. ‘The former governor, a Republican who served as forester in the Theo- dore Roosevelt administration and supported Franklin Roosevelt in 1932, said: Practical Progressive “I am delighted to find my first impression confirmed that the gov- ernor is a practical progressive. “We also have been going over T. R. —not Franklin—Roosevelt’s conserva- tion policies and I find that the gov- ernor and I are in practical accord. “I am for Landon because he is a practical progressive with a habit of doing things. Franklin Roosevelt, how- ever good he may be as a starter, is & poor finisher.” Another development that attracted attention in the capital was the com- manding lead which Rep. Josh Lee obained over Gov. E. W. Marland in the race for the Democratic senatorial nomination in Oklahoma.

What is happening is that loans made by the Reconstruction Finance corporation, for instance, to banks, railroads, insurance companies and the like during the Hoover regime are being collected. There is an item of $194,200,000 of this kind in this month’s operations of the gov- ernment. Hitherto, this has been called a “recoverable asset” and has been proudly pointed to by the presi- dent and New Deal officials as being one of the items that would some day cut down the public debt. The last. official figure of “recoverable assets” was about $4,300,000,000, and if a sizeable amount like that is cut off the present public debt of $33,- 476,000,000 it means a comfortable reduction. Now, however, the New Deal is not, using .the.recoverables: to cut down debt, but is selling these as- sets, so to speak, getting the money therefrom and it over to various agencies of the government to spend not in more loans, but in items that are not expected to be recovered at all. Lindbergh Takes Off For Rhinow, Prussia Berlin, July 29.—(#)—Col. Charles A. Lindbergh left Berlin Wednesday for Rhinow, Prussia. Before his departure, he inquired about the condition of Lieut. Ernst Udet, war ace injured at Warne- muende Monday when his plane fell to pieces in the air. The American flier was relieved to learn Udet was recovering rapidly. Colonel Lindbergh Tuesday night was presented with the honor emblem of the German Aero club, awarded for distinguished fice in aviation. There are no native mammals, ex- cept bats, in New Zealand.

COUGHLIN TAKES STUMP jbands of Detroit radio priest, and Rep. (Associated Press Photos) Instead of borrowing money and increasing the debt, the treasury is really turning over assets to be used for government expenses. There is no objection to such a Course if the expenses of each agency are fully disclosed and if the so-called “recov- erable assets” are shown to be di- minishing, but it is hardly proper to tell the public that the recoverable assets will be used for debt retire- ment and then use them up in pay- ing for current expenses of govern- ment. It's a good deal like the sit- uation that might arise in a private corporation which has a plant on which there has been no mortgage and the company raises money by selling such a plant and then puts the money into the general account to pay current deficits without tell- ing the stockholders that their prin- cipal asset, the plant, is disappearing as an asset. One difficulty, of course, is that in government finance any money paid out, whether it is in the form of a loan or direct grant, is considered an expenditure. At one time or another, therefore, the money now being re- paid from loans was actually listed by the treasury as an expenditure. Hence, it need not be listed that way again. But what shall.the treatment be of money paid into the treasury from a loan? Shall it go into the general fund and be ear-marked there for retirement or public debt? Or shall it go imto- the general balances where no public ice can be taken of the use that is subsequently made? Thus, the expenses of the works progress administration this month are $115,200,000 up to July 22, against only $50,840,000 a year ago VALLEY CITY READY TO ENTERTAIN HOST NBC to Broadcast Opening Ceremonies Over Farm and Home Hour Thursday Valley City, N.

WEDNESDAY, JULY William Lemke (left), Union party ic at Hankinson, N. D. Later Father ent Lemke Is defeated, but instead “forced” to repudiate. “David Lawrence this month for direct relief. The re- settlement administration is spend- ing $10,000,000 this month, as against $1,358,000 a year ago. The public works administration, which makes loans and grants to local govern- ments, has this month spent $31,- 280,000, as against $8,491,000 a year ago. So while the expenses of many of these so-called emergency agencies are running much larger than last year and the expenses of the reg- ular establishment, especially army and navy, are higher than before, the statement issued by the treasury shows the total expenditures thus far this month at $315,413,290, as against $647,553,333 at the same time @ year ago. There is no way of knowing how many government checks, in addition to the $315,413,290, have gone out from the treasury this month, but at least $240,000,000 y be accounted for through the’ use of collection moneys that are paid out but not now counted as expenses. This item alone would make the expenses about $555,800,000, which is more nearly |by like the last year figure. But even 80, this year’s figure does not in- clude other transactions which ap- peared in the treasury statement a year ago and which, for some reason or other, are not shown up as fully this year. If the New Deal bookkeepers keep on with their present scheme, they may be able to show between now and November a rather insignificant deficit for the present fiscal year, compared to deficits of recent years. The cash balance will be used instead of new borrowings and the public debt could remain stationary until after election. 29, 1986 Mayor Proclaims ‘Safety Day’ Here A proclamation issued by Mayor A. P, Lenhart, president of the board of city commissioners, set aside Thurs- day as “Bismarck Safety Day” and urged motorists to do their part in making the city “safety conscious.” The proclamation follows: Proclamation “Thursday, July 30, will be ‘Bis- marck Safety Day,’ an event of un- usual importance, when three of the world famous champions visit Bis- marck in the interests of safety among motorists and pedestrians. “They come here with the approval and full cooperation of the National Safety Council. .

These men will spend the entire day and evening in this city. “Further, it is the belief of the Na- tional Safety Council, as well as other citizens, that the three champions will be heeded more in their appear- ance and talks on safety than most other mediums of expression. In ad- dition to being here in person, they “Now, therefore, I, A. P. Lenhart, President of the Board of City Com- missioners of the City of Bismarck, do hereby designate and proclam Thursday, July 30, ‘Bismarck Safety Day’ among motorists and pedes- trians. “Purthermore, I urge each ‘and every motorist in Bismarck to do his part in this campaign to reduce acci- dents by becoming ‘safety conscious’ and to do everything within his pow- er to prevent accidents, to cooperate by setting a good example and mak- ing others ‘safety conscious.’ “Furthermore, I suggest that the public attend the Association of Com- merce luncheon Thursday and hear these three famous men in person | talk on safety.
