The Republican campaign man- agers, now conferring in Chicago, have arranged for the establishment of an agricultural bureau as part of the Republican natiomal committee. {n making the announcement yesterday, Chairman Willlam M. Butler of the national committee, who 4is in Chi- cago, said that the bureau was being established so that ways of giving party aid to the farmers after election may be devised.” This new bureau of the national committee will lay before the farm- ers the reaschs for voting the Re- publican ticket, just as the depart- ment of bureau of labor now planned by the Republicans will seek the sup- port of the workers. . /Chairman Butler's Statement.

New Note in Campaign, It was reported that as a result o his conferences last night and vester- day Chairman Butler was tremen- dously impressed by a new note in the ~ampaign, which he contends is being sounded by the people—a note which he believes is similar to the note which marked the Coolidge preé-con- vention campaign. Mr. Butler states that he has found that men and wom- en’ who in the past regarded partici- pation in political events as merely an incidental matter, are giving their whole heart to the work this year.
