- VANDENBERG FIRES BLASTATNEW DEAL Charges “Vampire Bureauc- racy” Threatening Our Rights and Economy. By the Assoctated Press. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., July 4— Benator Arthur H. Vandenberg opened the Republican campaign in Michigan today with the charge that a “vampire bureaucracy” in Washington is “threatening both our rights and our economy.” Vandenberg predicted at an Inde- pendence day rally that ‘traditional Democrats” would unite this year with Republicans in “fighting a common enemy, the Roosevelt party, which mocks the American system that was proclaimed on our Fourth of July, and which aims at a collective society controlied from Washington.” “The end of States' rights and of home rule is a queer contribution to masquerade in the purloined name of Jefferson’s memory,” the junior Sen- ator from Michigan said. Hits at Platform. Discussing the phraseology of the Pemocratic platform, Vandenberg said that “in announcing so-called | self-evident truths,” the platform | builders “entirely overlooked some of the pertinent truths that are particu- larly self-evident today.” “For example, it is a self-evident truth that when the Roosevelt party promised in 1932 to reduce Goernment expendttures by 25 per cent and then proceeded instead to spend as much | in three years as the Government | spent in all the 124 years from Wash- | ington to Wilson, it is convinced of | such gross deception and such wanton disregard of its obligations that noth- ing it now promises is worth more | than the scrap of paper upon which | the promise is written. Points to Dangers. “It is equally self-evident that * ¢ ¢ we are headed either for taxation that will sink every mother’s son of us or we are headed for inflation or repudia- tion, or both, which will ultimately wreck every savings account, every life insurance policy and every other | thing of value possessed by any man. | woman or child under the flag,” he‘ said. Challenging the assertion he at- tributed to Frank Picard. Michigan Democrat, who seconded President Roosevelt’s nomination at Philadel- phia, that “Roosevelt’s economic pol- | icies have been the stimulant that put the State’s automobile industry at the head of the parade in the organized march to the return of a permanent and stable prosperity,” | Vandenberg said: “If it is meant that the outpour- ing of prodigal Federal funds, which have yet to be repaid, temporarily provided some purchasers for cars, it | may be partially true. But this has nothing to do with ‘a permanent and stable prosperity’ any more than we got real ‘prosperity’ in the last de:-‘ ade out of building up Europe's power | 1o buy our goods by lending billions | to Europe, which Europe never has epaid. Cites Auto Industry Program. “The truth of the matter is that our great Michigan automobile in- | dustry has spectacularly and cour- | ageously led the recovery parade by completely reversing the Roosevelt | economic creed. That creed calls for higher prices and restricted pro- duction * * * Yet it has been reducing costs, -while still increas- ing wages and by producing a better | product in greater volume at a cheap- er price that the automobile industry hos ‘led the recovery parade.’ fichigan is the living proof that sevelt sgarcity economics are false | faulty. They must be abandoned | if America is to survive its present | hrpodermic prosperity and gain the rowurn of ‘a permanent and stable osperity.” | Vandenberg said he estimated that | 5 per cent of all Federal taxes are yaid by Michigan residents and busi- noss firms. He said he figured that Michigan would have to contribute $1.000,000.000 to pay its share of the total funds appropriated by the last Congress for various purposes, B LOST.

Landon of Kansas left here today, concluding a 10-day vacation the Republican presidential nominee | spent with his family on a ranch 1 the Rockies. The candidate and his party were en route to the Kansas capital, To- peka, via Denver, with a brief iter- mediate stop at Greeley to “look in” uporr a rodeo. Mrs. Landon and the three chil- dren, Peggy Anne, 19, and Nancy Joe, nearly 4, and Jack, 2!, will remain here most of the Summer. The Gover- nor may return for another short visit, possibly late this month or early in August. Work on Speech. Almost to the last minute here the Governor and his campaign aides, Charles P. Taft, son of the late Pres- dent Taft; Ralph W. Robey, Columbia University economist, and Earl H. Ta; lor, farm expert, worked on the nomi- nee's notification speech. This address will be delivered when the Governor formally accepts the Republican nomination in Topeka July 23. The ceremony will be held on the capitol grounds. Mrs. Landon and Peggy Anne plan to go to Topeka for the reremony. Mrs. Landon’s mother, Mrs. William E.

BY the Associated Press. NEW YORK, July 4 —The old guard Socialists’ first State convention voted today to form a new political party in New fork State by affiliating with the Social-Democratic Federation of America, an organization of old guard groups in disagreement with present Socialist party policies. Louis Waldman, former State chair- man of the Socialist party, in an open- ing address to 150 delegates said the new party was opposed to all dictator- ship, either Communist or Fascist, and favored socialization of industries. The convention is scheduled to adopt a platform and nominate a State ticket tomorrow, which will have to g0 on the ballot by petition. The delegates balked at a recom- mendation of the Resolutions Com- mittee, headed by Waldman, calling for negotiations with the non-par- tisan Labor League for organization of a permanent party in the State to be known as the People’s Party, naming national as well as State can- didates. Action on this resolution is expected tomorrow. The debate brought out & three-way split in the convention, MAN FOUND DROWNED IN TWO FEET OF WATER 2¥V the Assoclated Press. HAGERSTOWN, Md, July 4—C.

Y, July 4—The Tammany wigwam, an anti-Roosevelt stronghold four years ago, today re- sounded with praise of the New Deal as the Society of Tammany celebrated its 150th anniversary. If Tammany still is cool toward Prezident Roosevelt, as some observers have said, there was no evidence of it today. Vociferous applause followed men- tion of the President’s name by the | principal speakers, Attorney General i Homer Cummings, Senator Robert F. Wagner and Senator Royal S. Cope- land. Some saw in the speech of Senator Copeland an implied criticism of the New Deal when he declared against too much centralization of power in Washington, but if any eriticism was intended it was balanced a mom->nt later by praise of the President’s ac- ceptance speech. Smith is Absent. Former Governor Alfred E. Smith, one of the 13 sachems of the Society of Tammany and a member of the of- ficial committee for the celebration, was not present. He was spending the week end at a Long Island resort Both President Roosevelt and Gov. Herbert H. Lehman sent messages ex- pressing regret they could not attend the celebration. Praising the work done by Tammany during the 150" years of its existence, the President’s message said: “Just as the Declaration of Inde- pendence was a protest against Tory oppression so did the Society of Tam- many come into being to preserve the hard won fruit of the Revolutionary War. threatened then as now by the Tory interests.” Senator Copeland. who has criticized some of the New Deal's policies, had | f Wigwam Not Ap- parent—Cummings, Wagner and Copeland Speak. this to say about the centralization of power in the Federal Government: “The salvation of the United States lies in the fact that it is indeed a union, a union of 48 States. As long |as the sovereignty of the States is preserved, solidarity of the Nation is | assured.” | | “Those who founded the Society of | Tamma: he said at another point, “were those who thought with Thomas Jefferson. They frowned upon cen- tralization of power in the Federal Government.” Senator Wagner, chairman of the | committee which drafted the Demo- | cratic platform at Philadelphia, pre- | dicted an overwhelming Democratic | victory in November. Wagner Predicts Triumph. “This year there is a special cause 1 for rejoicing,” he said. “* * * we know |that in November the Nation, in a lines, will register its overwhelming approval of a government that has | kept faith with the immortal principles | of democracy conceived 160 years ago.” Attorney General @ummings said: | “The theory of our Government has not changed, but the time has changed | and invention has altered the scope of |tempo of our life. There are many | influential and intelligent citizens who | are disturbed by these things and in- | dulge in fear, largely artificial, that | something terrible has happened to America. “They seek to interpret the law and { the Constitution in such fashion that | they will check rather than guard the | flow of the stream of life. These futile | testures bring only disappointment and bitterness to those who indulge in | them. Nothing is happening to Amer- | ica except that it is growing and that it is insistent that it shall not lose is freedom in the process.” Politics (Continued From First Page.)

No political campaign is run with- out money. The Democrats estimate that $2,000,000 will be enough for them this year, The Republican fund may run higher. The Republicans figure, however, they are entitled to use a very considerable sum as an off- set to the huge sums of money which are being paid out by the Government for all kinds of work and relief and to farmers for curtailing their crops. although the farm program is called this year by another name. The Re- publicans insist that each recipient of government funds becomes at once a potential New Deal party worker. While the Democrats and the Re- publicans are lining up for the fray and preparing to spend their campaign funds, the senatorial campaign In- vestigating Committee is preparing to sit on the lid. Senator Augustine Lonergan of Connecticut, Democrat, is chairman of the committee. He said last night he would devote most of his time this Summer to the work of his committee, with his headquar- ters in Washington. This does not mean, however, that he and the com- mittee will not travel into various States to run down charges of political corruption, if it becomes necessary. The Senate Committee is operating this year under wide authority granted in the resolution creating it, wider than that given to similar committees in the past. Indeed, the language of the resolution has been interpreted as broad enough to permit an investi- gation into the expenditure of Gov- ernment money, for example, by the Works Progress Administration, against which charges have been laid of polit- ical corruption. Senator Lonergan has announced, however, that the committee has decided thus far to confine itself to investigating regular party activities and the expenditures of candidates over which it has juris- diction. For the present also the com- mittee will confine its activities to ac- tual nominees of the various parties as distinct from candidates in the primary -and State conventions. To Prevent Election Fraud. Senator Lonergan explained that by thus limiting the committee’s activi- ties to nominees it could more effec- tively investigate and prevent sctual fraud and corruption in the gei elections. He pointed out that the corrupt practices act under Which offenders could be prosecuted does not eover, primary elections, sithough the powers of the committes Would L » be broad enough to inquire into ex- penditurés of candidates before or after the primaries. | The Senate Committee chairman | has promised that the investigations conducted will be “fair and impar- tial.” The make-up of his committee is three Democrats, one Progressive | and one Republican. The democrats | are Lonergan, Schwellenbach of | Washington, and Minton of Indiana. The Progressive is La Follette of Wisconsin, and the Republican, Aus- tin of Vermont. It will be the policy of the committee, Senator Lonergan said, to investigate and give the full- corruption or the use of excessive campaign funds. He believes this to be a more effective method of pro- cedure than actual prosecution, al- though prosecution will be recom- mended wherever there is clear evi- dence of violation of the law. More and more it becomes evident that the battle is to bé confined large- ly to the Republicans and the New | Deal Democrats. The flurry caused | by the announcement of a third party —the Union Party, backed by Father Coughlin—has subsided at least for the time being. Representative Lemke of North Dakota, who announced his candidacy for the presidency on the Union Party ticket, with his running mate as Thomas C. O'Brien of Massa- chusetts, has not created much of a stir as the days have goie by. The new party, it has been said, will hold a convention, presumably to ratify the selection of the presidential and vice presidential candidates and the platform announced by Lemke. The details of the proposed ccavention are still to be announced. Followers of President Roosevelt do not take much stock in the Lemke ticket and its threat. They believe the President’s appeal to the Pro- gressives and radicals, and the deter- mination of many of them to sup- port the Democratic New Deal ticket will be an effective check on the Lemke movement. New Allignments Seen. Whether the Lemke-O'Brien Union party ticket makes strides or not, the contest between the Roosevelt Dem- ocrats and the Republicans promises to bring new allignments politically. It seems clear enough now that the Democrats who believe, as do Al Smith, former Senator “Jim” Reed, former Gov. Ely of Massachusetts and others, are going to support the Re- publican ticket. On the other hand, some of the group of Republican Pro- gressives who went over to Roosevelt in 1932 will back him again this year, About the time that the Lemke neral | ticket came out in the open, Senator La Follette of Wisconsin announced that after the Republican and Demo- cratic conventions had concluded, there would be & meeting of “Progres- sives” to determine what their course » | teacher, seek the run-off places, | versity demonstration transcending all party | est publicity to charges of political | STIFF TEST FACED BY SENATOR GORE Gov. Marland, Le é -and Smith Leading Opponents of Blind Oklahoman. By tne Associated Press. OKLAHOMA CITY, July 4.—For| blind Senator Thomas P. Gore—a ‘veteran of 19 years in the Upper House of Congress—leading politicians see the hardest battle of his career in Tuesday’s primary election. ‘The Democratic nomination which he seeks will be determined finally in a run-off primary election July 28. The fleld of eight will be thinned to the party’s two leading contestants in ‘Tuesday's election. Major Opponents, Main figures opposing Gore on the Democratic ballot are Gov. E. W. Marland, elected chief executive on a| “down the line with the New Deal” platform; Representative Josh Lee of Norman, also a “New Dealer,” and Gomer Smith, Oklahoma City corpo- ration lawyer and national Townsend plan vice president. Lee, former professor of public speaking at the University of Okla- homa, who is pitting his schooled speech against that of Gore, known | as Oklahoma's “silver-tongued orator,” | has been the chief target of the blind Senator’s battle against the field. Gore’s charges that W. P. A. workers were used against him by Lee, and that the latter solicited campaign con- tributions from relief workers, resulted in investigations by regional W. P. A. officials and orders directing relief em- ployes to take no part in the campaign. Marland is accused by Gore and Lee of making his senatorial bid backed by a powerful machine built around State employes. Social Security Advocate. Smith's campaign has centered on his advocacy of old-age pensions and | a broad social security program. Talk of Townsend forces joining a third Farmer-Labor party caused him to stress, however, that he was not inter- ested in “bolting the Democratic party.” On the Republican side, Herbert Hyde, Indian, former United States district attorney here, who headed the Charles F.

If there is to be a gathering of Progres- | | sives and a show of hands for Roose- | velt on their part, it will not be | until later. ‘ In making plans for the Democratic campaign, there still remains to be | settled the status of Chairman Farley | of the party’s national committee. | | Farley is still a member of the Presi- | dent's cabinet. Promises have been made from time to time that Farley | would step out of this cabinet post | and confine his activities to the re- | | election of the President. It was inti- ! mated last Winter that such a step would be taken when the fight for | delegates to the Democratic National Convention got underway. It did not happen. Then it was rumored that Farley would retire as Postmaster cratic National Convention. it is said that Farley, instead, of re- | signing as Postmaster General, will be | given a “furlough” during the con- tinuance of the political campaign. ‘The President and the Postmaster | General are to have another confer- ence on campaign matters when the former returns from his Fourth of July trip to Virginia. The Farley status may be determined—and an- | nounced—at that conference. On the other hand, it may not. May Demand Names. The President, in his acceptance speech in Philadelphia, took a shot at “economic royalists.” In fact, the eco- nomic royalists whom the President likened to the tories of revolutionary | days, were the principal butt of his | speech. He named no name. The | Republicans are planning to demand that the President give names. | Whether they will be successful is an- | other matter. Some of the commentators upon the President’s acceptance speech have in- terpreted it as meaning that he has turned away from the New Deal. This was emphatically denied by Charles Michelson, director of publicity for the Democratic National Committee. Mr. Michelson, confidant of the President, must know what he is talking about. Said Michelson: “If the President’s speech at Phila- delphia had any meaning or implica- tion it was that he had shifted neither his objectives nor his program: that he found the platform adopted by the National Convention quite in con- formity with what he had done and what he wished to do, not only toward bringing the country back to perma- nent prosperity, but to correct the abuses that had brought the United States to the verge of destruction and to prevent any recurrence of the dis- aster.” That would appear to settle the mat- ter and put the quietus on suggestions that the President has turned to the right.

Failure of the Federal Govern- ment to take over the regulation of money, now a function of private in- dustry. “We have the power under our Con- stitution to destroy monopoly,” he said. “We have had it these 160 years. But the people have lacked the cour- age to do their duty by insisting that monopolies be eliminated and that private industry surrender control of the Nation’s money. “There is now some first real evi- dence of recovery,” Borah continued. “But to whom is it going?

By the Associated Pross. BROCKTON, Mass, July 4—The Rev. Charles E. Coughlin, radio nriest, today told a crowd estimated by news= papermen at 10,000, that “it sickens one to hear that the object of the Government is to get men back to work.” His address at Romuva Park, spone sored by three local units of the Nae tional Union for Social Justice, opened his national political cam- paign in the East. “Nero got his slaves back to work,* the priest declared, “but their only payment was the lash across their shoulders, and you don't want to go back to work at a loss. You want to return at a profit.” “Your contribution to civilization,* he said at another point, “is to ge$ social justice for all, be they Proteste ants, Catholics, Jew or Gentile.” The crowd repeatedly interrupted the priest with applause. President Roosevelt, he charged, had “out-Hoovered Hoover. He has placed a 35 billion dollar burden on you, created by the bankers like thag (Father Coughlin gave a quick wave of his hand), and to be pald back A debt of 35 hillion means that one day out of every four you work, you are working for J. P, Morgan and Barney Baruch. In 18 years that 35 billion, with interest, will be 70 billion, and then every other day you will be working for Baruch.” Father Coughlin rode to the park in an automobile driven by a chauf feur—the way cleared by a police es- cort. Immediately after his address he left. “I'm leaving now,” he announced, “on my trip through New Jersey and Pennsylvania, back to Detroit, and through the Dakotas.” He promised his hearers that “if you stand by us at the polls next Noe vember, we will take at least 14 seats out of the State of Massachusetts.” The State has 17 Congressiona) seats. —_— Stenographer-Typist 65¢—Exam—65¢ .
