While Mr. Borah did not charge Hoover with any offense, the Demo- cratic nominee went on, he did imply that these corporations had been able to “extort unjust prices” from Ameri- can_consumers. “How Mr. Borah can now go about and hold Mr. Hoover up as an idol is | something I don't understand,” the | speaker added.

He will speak at Wichita Monday - and then move on to Oklahoma. RESTRAINT IS LAID T0 FILM PRODUCERS U. S. Probers Charge Conspiracy - in Complaint at Los Angeles. By the Assoclated Press.
