And, on the contrary, the process of law enforcement, and it must meet not only the problem of re- straining the offender—it must restrain the offender in spite of the fact that the people in the community do not think the offender is an offender at all.

Louis Howe, con- secretary to the Governor and | Josedly the moster mind of the | Roosevelt campaign, came to Chicago this afternoon to acquaint the Gover- nor with the latest developments in the | Empire State. E | ccording to reports, Tammany has determined to prevent the nomination for Governor of Licut. Gov. Lehman, a | New Yorker, but not one with whom Tammany can deal effectively. There | is talk of Samuel Levy, borough presi- | dent of Manhattan, for the nomination, although in the past Tammany and ts up-State allies had apparently de- termined to support Mayor John B. Thacher of Albany for the gubernatorial nomination. Just how Tammany pro- cses to sidetrack Thacher and substi- tute Levy and hold its allles up-State is not quite clear. The recrudescence of “Jimmie” Walk- er as Tammany's probable nominee for mayor of New York, since the decision | of the Supreme Court appellate divi- sion that an election of mayor must be held in November, has certainly mud- died the waters for the Roosevelt sup- porters in New York. They hoped that no election would be held until next year. Tammany Deal Hinted. I Walker is to be a candidate for mayor of the greater city on the Demo- | cratic ticket, it probably will create chaos for the presidential ticket in the | State.

Mem- bers of the Roosevelt party in Chicago | today insisted that the West is solid | for their candidate, however, and that | he can be elected ‘without the aid of New York and other States of the North Eest. They did not admit, how- ever, that New York and other Eastern States are lost to Gov. Roosevelt, not by any means. still the New York situation has thrown at least a temporary damper on the triumphal return of Gov. Roosevelt to his own bailiwick. Gov.

Your mayor, my friends, backed by the enthusiastic and united democracy and most of the citizens of Chicago, has been meeting the situation as we in other parts of the Nation realize, in the right spirit. With hard, prac-| tical experience he has been cutting expenses, and believe me, it takes cour- age to do that. An Example to the Country. He has been giving an example to the country, which it sorely needs in| This country of ours, as| 1 have cften pointed out, is in the| process of reducing itsclf to a common- scnse basis of expenditure. Cities have | been hit hard—their credit is a thing, | of course, that does not permit of | deficits. They have had to cut and cut bravely, and one of the things that I think is more worthy of note than any- thing else is the fact that while Mayor Cermak has been compelled to reduce expenditures with an iron hand, he ‘has at the same time been getting as regards the most important function of city government—preservation of Bw and order—getting better results. And, indeed, you have done even more than that. You have been get- ting more and better law enforcement for less money and that is an even greater achievement. Now. speaking of law enforcement, | my friends, here as in other great | | cities, it 1s only fair to say that a primary need is not only to do as you have been doing—increase the efficiency of law enforcement and keep your costs down—what we must do is to make the job easier to perform. And the way to do that is to recognize frankly that the power of a State to maintain order—to enforce law—depends not ohly-on the power of law enforcement but upon the nature of the law itself. 1f a law is imposed on law enforce- | ment agencies that a vast proportion of the people do not regard as a moral obligation, the great orderly force of public opinion that must stand behind law enforcement is lost. And, on the contrary, this force runs counter to the: process of law enforcement, and it must meet not only the problem of re- | straining the offender—it must restrain the offender in spite of the fact that the pegple in the community do not think the offender is an offender at| all. That, my friends, is serious to our process of government, because when- | ever we have admitted this kind of | regulation we have met with extreme difficulty. For example, we have| found after a long and bitter trial that t we cannot in a city like Chicago en- | force prohibition. Cites Platform Promise. 1 Now, I am not going to discuss this | at length. I have touched on it occa- sionally since the first day of July, and i notice that people are required to talk at length on it only when they have something to explain away. The Democratic platform adopted here in | Chicago leaves nothing to be explained. It is direct. It is simple. It is for the right. It is a promise of relief and I| am going to let tne Republican leaders try to explain their stand on prohibi- tion. I take it that they are having suf- ficient trouble doing that about a great many things, but for mysel!, I stand on | the Democratic platform, as I have said before, 100 per cent. I mean to in- clude also the proposed modification of | the Volstead act. | Now, when prohibition is out of the way as & national issue, and I am confi- | dent it will be so, those who are inter- | ested in public affairs can give redoubled | effort to the larger and more funda- | mental, more far-reaching questions of | economic readjustment and relief. I wish I had time tonight to outline to you once more that portion of the program that I have elaborated since | my nomination. I have spoken on a | number of oecasions of the major prob- lems that confront our ecohomic Nfe | in this country, of agriculture—and | may I say here that you people in this | city and in New York City and of the | other great cities are coming more and | more to realize that industrial prosperity | is in very large part dependent upon | the return of the purchasing power of those engaged in farming throughout the Nation. 1 have spoken of saving the railroads | frome receiverships; I have spoken of the tariff in words I think that laymen | like myself can understand; and I}/ this city know semething about power. G. O. P. Leaders’ Reaction. I have stated my position, my friends, | in simple terms. These terms have in | fact been sufficiently clear, so that we have been receiving overwhelming re- the country, from people in every walk of life, responses to my statements on these <questions, and about the only people who say they don’t understand are the Republican leaders themselves; and when, perchance, they do under- stand, they say, “It is good, very good, but it is taken from just what President Hoover said.” It is a strange thing, my friends, that this campaign comes down to a point where the only answer that they have for a reasonably and carefully drawn up economic program for re- covery can be answered only by saying that it either cannot be understood or that it is taken from some one else. It sounds to me a little like this: The opposition this year has found itself confronted with an unscaleable wall— not tariff, but of solid fact, as I have often made it clear in my economic Aduvertised Cash Price is 1 Mayonnalse Ladle. 1 Cold Meat' Fork 1 Butter Pick . 2-pe.

What is true of the farmer that I have talked about is true of every cther member of the economic communit: I pointed out a week ago in San Fran cisco that our task is to meet the roblem of underconsumption, of ad- | justing production to consumption, of | distributing wealth and products more equitably. 2 ‘And, my friends, that means that the products of our factories, the products of our farms, which essentially con- | stitute our national wealth, must be permitted to flow in such a way as to | supply and profit every one. And not merely a mere small prosperous group. What we all need is customers, and we can have them only when purchasing | power is more equitably distributed. Distribution of Wealth. Theorctically—and some people hold that theory—we could distribt g chasing power by confiscatin thing within reach ing it we could divide it up equall tween everybody—on Saturday night. | But you and I after all are common- sense people, and We know that wealth | wouldn't stay distributed that way if we tried it at all. And so the way to distribute wealth— | the way to distribute products more equitabiy after all is to adjust our eco- nomic legislation so that no group is unduly favored at the expense of any other group or section. Here these laws of ours—where the laws of the Federal Government, where the laws and processes of State govern- ment and where the laws and adminis- tration of city government assist or per- mit any group to exploit other groups, the exploited ones can no longer buy. Government of &ll kinds must tematically eliminate special advan- tages, eliminate special favors, eliminate special privile: wherever - possible— whether they ccme, my friends, fro tariff subsidies, or credit—favoritism, or taxation, or anywhere else. The slozan that you have adopted here in Chicago—the slogan, “I will"— expresses to me the hopefu ness neeced in times like these. It expresses the | idea that I have tried to put in the fore- front of my own campaigning. It dis- tinguishes it from what I belleve to be | the expression of Repul n leadership in the last four years, “I would have— | but.” And so I don't cast in my lot with those who say, "I would have—but.” cast it in with those who say, “I will.” Let me appropriate that siogan of | yours for the period of the campaign that is still to come. It expresses ihe determination that we shall not permit the depression to defeat us. Hopeful and united with a firm belief that our program is strong enough for the emer- gency to come, join me in that watch- word, “T will In this undaunted spirit. my friends, you and I will carry on until the peo- Dle are lifted out of the pit of despond; until action is substituted for dormancy, | until social justice is substitutcd for privilege, until prosperity is substituted for poverty, the principles of democracy | will rule again in our land. FARM RELIEF PLANS Bureau Federation Head Says Gov-| ernor Goes Further Than Any | Other National Leader. By the Associated Press CHICAGO, October 1.—F. A. O'Neal, an Alabaman and president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, Who called on Gov. Roosevelt, Demo- | cratic presidential nominee, here today, | declared the New Yorker had *“gone | further in his offers of co-operation” with farm leaders toward a solution | of the agricultural problem “than any of the national leaders of the past few years.” | Mr. O'Neal headed a delegation of farm leaders that called upon Mr. Roosevelt. The group included Chester Gray, Legislative Representative in ‘Washington for the Farm Bureau. and | Earl Smith, president of the Illinois Agricultural Association. ‘O'Neal said Roosevelt's speeches at | Topeka and Sioux City, which dealt | with the farm question, had been weu‘ received by farmers. He said agricul- | turists were particularly impressed with | the Democratic candidate’s offer to call farm leaders into conference to deter- mine their relief program. Mr. Roose- velt consulted with Mr. O'Neal in Al- bany a few weeks ago when he was preparing the Topeka address. N Also among the visitors to the Roose- Chicago banker and a candidate for the presidential nomination which went to the New Yorker. Bruce Campbell of East St. Louis, long & leader in II- linois State politics and suggested at the last convention as a vice presi- dential possibility, and Vincent Y. Dall- man, editor of the Springfleld State Register, and the Roosevelt leader in the Illinois delegation at the Chicago convention, visited the nominee. Both Campbell and Dallman were optimistic that Mr. Roosevelt would receive a ma- jority in down-State Illinois, which generally is Republican.

The Osages recelve allotted shares trust by the Government. Mr. Curtis arrived here from Ponca City and immediately participated in the parade through crowded streets. Indians, some from his own Kaw Tribe, lined sidewalks or rode in full regalia in_motor cars In his speech he declared that all Presidents of past history “let depres- sions pursue their own course, but your ) President Herbert Hoover, however, called together the leaders of finance and thought and urged them to greater efforts to prevent unemployment and stoppage of the flow of commerce.” He added: Eats Barbecued Beef. “Precident Hoover initiated and for- | warded a great public works program. | He is the first President ever to spend Government funds fcr such a purpose in time of depression.” He cited the anti-hoarding campaign, | Reconstruction Finance Corporation activities and other measures used in combatting the economic crisis.

Sgne: 5 REICH SPECULATION LAID TO ROOSEVELT| Vandenberg Says Nominee Took a Flyer in German “Marks and Misery.” By the Associated Press. FORT WAYNE, Ind, October 1.— Senator Vandenberg, Republicen, of | Michigan, said in a_campaign speech | tonight that in 1922, Franklin D. Roose- velt, as president of a corporation, “or-1 ganized to speculate in German marks and misery,” had been a part of the “fevers of speculation” he now de- nounces. “Perhaps that is putting too much dignity upon United European Investors, Ltd., Franklin D. Roosevelt, president, a Canadian corporation, organized to speculate in German marks and mis- ery,” Vandenberg said in the address, as textually distributed by the Repub- lican National Committee. “After all. it was only a little flyer in the big wind.which seared the Na- tion,” he added. Vandenberg said that according to the New York Times of December 15, 1922, the company was organized “to help Americans invest slipping German marks in German properties, through a committee of prominent Germans in Germany.” “Apparently it subsequently col- lapsed,” he,continued. “At any rate, it surrendered its charter in 1927—its far beyond the reach of any of the restrictions which the Democratic nom- inee for President now undoubtedly would piously recommend. Its 100,- 000,000 marks only involved $15.000— such is the mortality in the value of printing press money. Vandenberg said he was not stress- ing the personal factor, but was “chiefly | concerned in emphasizing the danger of fiat money.” “I have no thought that the distin- guished Governor of New York would remotely favor any reproduction of the German debacle in the United States,” he went on. “It would be unthinkab] “Yet, the House of Representatives, under the control of his party, was willing to take the first step in this direction, supported, in_fairness, let it be said, by some Republicans.” The Senator said President Hoover had met the “flat money issue” in “the same unflinching way that he has met every other test of sound, sane tradi- tional Americanism.” Indiana Attorney to Talk.
