HOUGHTON GET LOWDEN SPOR Sure Ambassador Would Work for Farm Solution, He Writes. By the Associated Press. SYRACUSE, N. Y. October 26— Prank O. Lowden, former Governor of Tllinois, in a letter to Ambassador Alan- son B. Houghton, Republican candidate for the United States Senate, stated he was convinced that Mr. Houghton, if elected, would work aggressively to bring about a solution of the farm problem. Mr. Lowden’s latter, his first public ex- pression since the Kansas City con- vention, when he was a candidate for the nomination for President, follows: “I am very happy over your nomina- tion for the Eenate. I have followed vour career closely ever since you were a Representative in Congress. Recalls Several Meetings. “I recall that I had several meetings with you then, and I was tremendously impressed by the depth of your under- standing and the breadth of your vision. “I have been very proud of your eminent career in diplomacy at ' the most_critical time. You accomplished more, I think, during your ambassador- in our entire service could have accom- plished, to thz vast benefit of both Ger- many and the United States. “With your conspicuous service as American ‘Ambassador to the Court of St. James all the world is familiar. While you never forgot the amenities never for a moment forgot that you were representing the interests of the United States. Praises His Views. “I had the privilege of several visits with you at Kansas City during the re- cent convention,” Mr. Lowden wrote. “I was surprised and delighted with your familiarity with the farm problem and your frank recognition of the fact that the farmer at present was at an im- mense economic disadvantage with other groups, and that you were eager to do what, you could to remove the economic handicap under which farmers at pres- ent_are sufiering. “You were not afraid to espouse what- | ever measures might be nceded to re- move the farmers' economic handicap. | T believe that if you were in the Senate | of the United States you would concern | yourself not passivly, but aggresisvely, in this great problem, and that your conscience would not be satisfled until you had employed all your efforts to- ward bringing about a solution of the problem.” Commissioned in Reserves.

The Senator’s tossing of his hat in the ring brought audience to its feet with a_cheer. - Leveling a barrage of charges against Gov. Smith, and denouncing those who have been his ecritics because of his stand against the party's standard bearer, the Senator said: “I will not vote for a man who re- pudiates the platform of the Democratic party of North Carolina, and the plat- form on which he was ncminated.” He charged that Tammany Hall planned the nomination of Gov. Smith on a liquor platform long before the Houston convention on the “insulting assumption that the South would vote for any man labelled with the Demo- cratic stamp.” “The present campaign” he said. for Anti-Prohibitionists. nad abandoned thuir| ! “"Smoke Screen“ s a struggle to keep the Democratic 1;:vmm:|ny Tiger, reeking with corrup- tion.” Gov.
