/" ROOSEVELT PAWN, VT DECLARE With Plea for Re-election of Hoover in Crisis. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, October 4.—Referring %o Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt at a “pawn” in the presidential election, with “no genuine following,” Willlam Allen White of Kansas urged voters last night to carry on the fight for economic Tecovery under the leadership of Her- bert Hoover. The Emporia editor and author, one- time independent candidate for Gov- arnor of Kansas on an anfi-Ku Klux Klan platform and a leader in the old Progressive party, opened a serleshgf radio broadcasts arranged by the Re- publican National Committee. “Herbert Hoover is the issue in this campaign,” said Mr. White. “Under his leadership, er all, the battle for economic recove must be won. “The issue therefore is not between the Democrats and the Republicans. Certainly the issue is not the election or defeat of Mr. Roosevelt. He is a pawn in the game. Voting for him, his followers will vent their anger and! despair, not against the President, but against inexorable economic condi- tions. ¢ ¢ ¢ No Genuine Following. “There is no conviction in the hearts of the American people that Franklin Roosevelt will make a good President, nor a bad one for that matter. He has no genuine following. “Good times will return to Amerlcal only if Americans use their courage and good sense. We must give President Hoover now, of all times, an expression of loyalty and faith in his battle for the new and better order; a battle that he has fought so hard and well. “To turn this country over to a fair- spoken, amiable, adroit politician and to a mercenary, greedy partisan horde in Congress like that which passed the Garner pork barrel bill through the House of Representatives and threat- ened the fabric of our financial safety by indorsing the bonus bill—to do_that might easily throw America into chaos, financial, social and political. Ten years, 20 years, a generation, may be required to recover from the panic of 1933 which may follow the defeat of Herbert Hoover.” Strong and Brave in Crisis. White said “this is not because Mr. Hoover is a Republican, not because he &s opposed by the Democrats. “It is because he is an exceptional | man; a man of the hour, inarticulate if | you will, certainly incapable of any en- gaging political appeal, a man with fmany minor faults, but strong and brave | mnd wise in this crisis; the one man | available for election to the presidency | this year who holds in his head the wisdom and in his hand the power to avert the catastrophe that is foreshad- owed, waiting in the wings to come out | &t his passing, and shake the world. “The Garner pork barrel bill and the bonus bill both passed by a Democratic House of Representatives under Demo- cratic leadership in spite of the Presi- dent's protest, show the temper of those who are taking political leadership in | opposition to the President. They are | making a low appeal.” SEES DEATHS LIMITED TO NECESSARY ONES| Dr. W. J.

But they hasten to add that if the Republicans can continue to hold the lash of fear over the heads of the ‘Wisconsin workers ,they may yet put Hoover across, and certainly will elect Kohler. “The second political phase of the depression hit Wisconsin in the pri- mary campaign,” said a leader who has given much thought to the situation here. “That is the fear phase, the dread of losing what is still left to the worker and the property owner. The first phase was one of disgust with conditions as they are. If this fear carries over into the national election, Hoover may win. Today the election would go against him here and for Gov. Roosevelt.” ‘The progressives give the stalwart or regular Republicans the credit of car- rying on a masterful and intensive cam- paign, spreading the fear of loss to all of the industrial workers of the State. Factory heads and big corporations told their employes that if the State went for La Follette they were just simply going to shut up their plants, cutting the workers off wholesale, no matter whether they could prove'they voted for Kohler cr not. It was up to the workers to prevent La Follette’s nomi- nation. And as the election turned out, it was in the industrial centers of the State that the La Follettes suffered their heaviest 10ssgg.

MONTPELIER, Vt, October 4.— Speaking befcre the Vermont Republic- |an State Convention today, United States Senator Daniel O. Hastings of Delaware asserted that Gov. Franklin D. Rcosevelt’s plea for “liberalism” is “a plea for the radical vote.” “His plea for ‘liberalism’ is a plea for the radical vote,” he said, “because by liberalism he means to take in all of the new schemes of government pro- | posed by any particular group of per- sons that are interested in govern- mental affairs. | “His plea for a ‘new deal’ it seems to me, is based solely upon a desire for his own election; a plea to try him as President and see whether we do not nominee, as “an apostle of despair.” | Every seat in Trinity Auditorium was | has a capacity of 3,000 and Republican the building to listen to the address Secretary Mills, & former college mate | | Senator Hastings said if he werg able Introduced by Scott. | to state briefly the “affirmative action” Joseph Scott, Los Angeles attorney | taken by President Hoover to combat Mr. Mills characterized Gov. | victory.” Democratic | “These economic conditions,” he con- | depression | terested in the Republican party real- | is_the only possible thing that On the other hand, he said, President | makes Democratic success even a pos- Senator Hastings sald he did nct] | agree that this campaign “is President He sahl “Gov. Roosevell bas been | ;o n /0ot o may win yet. Every evidence is at hand to indicate that the Republican national campaign managers are planning such a drive if they can get the manufac- turers and business men generally to back them up. The regular Republicans in Wiscon- sin are more interested in electing Kohler and the rest of the State ticket than they are in bringing victory to President Hoover. That is one of the weaknesses of the Hoover campaign in this State. No mention of Hoover and his administration was made by Kohler in his primary campaign. Today he is being pulled and hauled two ways. One group of his advisers urges Kohler to run his own campaign and to keep away entirely from the Hoover cam- paign—not even to indorse the Presi- dent. Ancther group insists that Kohler cannot afford to turn his back entirely on the national ticket and, further, that his indorsement of the President will do him no real harm, anyway, despite the fact that it is admitted the Hoover administration is unpopular in the State. Republicans and Democrats are meet- ing here today to draft their State party platforms. The Republicans may place in their platform an indorsement of President Hoover. Indeed, it is rather expected in some quarters they will do so. One political strategist sug- gested that this might be the extent of the Kohler indorsement of the ad- ministration and, that after this plat- form action, Kohler may go ahead and campaign for himself and the State ticket and avoid, in his speeches, men- tioning the presidential election. There is one thing certaln, the stalwarts care far more what happens to their State ticket than what happens to the Na- waukee separate from the Republican national ticket headquarters. They be- lieve that this indicates Kohler and his supporters are willing to throw Hoover overboard in the effort to elect the State ticket. But it is not entirely clear yet by any means that the regu- lar Republicans in the State are ready to go to such lengths. The State has been flooded with copies of the Uncensored News, weekly publication dedicated to defeat- ing the La Follette Progressives. It has pictured the La Follettes as rob- bers of the public till. It has backed up the campalgn made by Chapple against the State University as a hot bed of communism, free love doctrines and what not. In its last issue the publisher of Uncensored News says: “The Democrats are saying that a vote for Kohler is a vote for Hoover. This is pure balderdash. Kohler has not said he favored Hoover. But what if he did? At the general election you may split your ballot—in other words you may vote for Kohler and at the same time vote for Roosevelt if you desire.” This at least gives color to the report that up tightly with the Hoover national ticket. ‘The Democratic candidate for gover- nor, Mayor Schmedeman, while he is highly respected, is not regarded as a strong candidate. The Progressives say he lacks force. Duffy, the Democratic nominee for senator, is looked upon as a Conservative. He is a Catholic, and this it 1s said, may make it difficult for him to win.

By the Associated Press. PARIS, October 4.—Former Mayor James J. Walker will probably decide on-the high seas whether he will be a candidate again for mayor of New York, he sald, as he left here for Cherbourg today to sall for home on the Europa. He won’t make the decision, he said, until he learns the result of the appeal from the recent ruling of the courts saying an election must be held in November. He said he hoped still to reach New York ahead of the Italian liner Rex, which he left at Gibraltar, when it was delayed for repairs, but which sailed a few hours after he left it. He was given an enthusiastic send- off here by & big crowd, including many women, which gathered on the plat- form. Walker's departure from the hotel in the Place de la Concorde was in the nature of a triumph, for a considerable crowd had gathered on the sidewalk when he stopped nearby to talk briefly into the microphones of the newsreel cameramen. ELECTION CASE IS UP. Appeals Court Weighs Question of Mayoralty Vote Next “Jonth. ALBANY, N. Y., October 4 ‘#)—The hotly contested question of whether New York City is to have a mayoralty i election next month was before the Court of Appeals today. ‘The New York Board of Elections, which is preparing to hold the election November 8, and the friends of Mayor Joseph V. McKee, who maintains Mc- Kee should serve until January 1. 1934, brought their arguments before the State’s highest tribunal. Both sides have won preliminary vic- tories. The Supreme Court ruled against an election next month, but the appellate division of the Supreme Court ruled for one. McKee, a Bronx Democrat, who has been pressing for economies in the city administration, succeeded James J. Walker, resigned. Tammany Hall, whose stronghold is Manhattan, is re- garded as favoring an election next month, but its choice for the mayoralty post has not been announced. 6. 0. P.

TACOMA, Wash, October 4.—No politician has a “right to stand before an American audience and talk amiable nothings,” Norman Thomas, Socialist candidate for President, sald here yes- terday in an address advocating a change in system whereby the machin- ery of production in this country would be_ collectively owned by the workers. Mr. Thomas appeared under auspices of the Economic Equality Club. “How can the workers, employed and unemployed, get the machinery of a political state and use it to bring about equality?” he asked. “We can't do it by having an eight-point program to regulate power as Gov. Roosevelt de- sires or by making railroad receiver- ships cheaper. “It isn’t any good for President Hoo- ver to talk about bolstering up a sys- tem that doles out money to banks.

Roosevelt is elected, possibly at the short session of Congress starting in December. “There is no question,” Wheeler sald at a press conference after a Western trip, “that if Gov. Roosevelt is elected the Volstead act will be modified. would not be surprised to see it happen at the next session. Certainly I believe it will be as soon as the newly-elected Congress meets. I “I think every member of Congress realizes what a tremendous change of sentiment has taken place in the coun- try. aflame for repeal.” States heretofore dry are today Senator Wheeler reached the Capital en route to a conference at national Democratic headquarters in New York. He also plans to visit Gov. Roosevelt before returning to campaign in the West. Reporting on a tour of the West and Northwest, Wheeler said he expected “anti-Hoover sentiment” in that terri- tory to swing it into the column for Gov. Roosevelt. He was doubtful only of Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. He believed several Republican Senators in the Northwest would be re-elected, al- though he expects their States to go for Roosevelt. ‘folding chairs FOR RENT OR SALE UNITED % STATES HOOVER FARM AID LAUDED BY CURTIS Two Administration Leaders Are Campaigning Only 150 Miles Apart.

It seems quite certain that they are not going to indorse per- sonally the Democratic State ticket. There are two reason for this. The first is that they do not wish to take the responsibility of electing Schmede- man governor, knowing that the next year is going to be tough for any man who becomes governor. If they put Schmedeman in office and his admins- tration is a fallure, where will they stand iwo years hence? The second reason lies in the fact that Schmede- man had, or is believed to have had, the support of the very interests which backed Kohler, the conservative busi- ness men. Their effort was to take the Democrats who had previously voted for La Follette away from Gov. La Follette and Senator Blaine. ' 8o as the national ticket is con- cerned, both the La Follette brothers will continue to oppose President Hoover. It is doubtful they will come out for Gov. Roosevelt and urge his_election openly. They are not sure Roosevelt is a real progressive. They did not indorse the candidacy of Al Smith four years ago, it is said, for the same rea- son, and they believe that time has vindicated thelr judgment in that case, for they look on Smith as a conserva- tive today.
