" LANDON STRATEGY DELIGHTS G.0.P. Demand for Tolerance Elic- its Acclaim—Democrats Hit Stand on Labor. BY G. GOULD LINCOLN, Staft Correspondent of The Star. TOPEKA, July 25.—For more than @ day the Republicens have assayed the acceptance speech of Gov. Alf M. | Landon. The results, they say, are entirely satisfactory. In fact, the Republicans are delighted with the speech and the way it has been re- ceived throughout the country. They did not expect the Democrats to praise it, certainly not the New Deal Democrats. Gov. Landon has received congratu- lations on his address from all parts of the country. These messages, as ‘well as Republicans who lingered here after the address, say that the Re- publican presidential candidate has clearly established the main issues of | the campaign. Landon, they point out, has called for a cessation of fear on the part of industry and hostility on the part of Government to in- dustry as essentials for recovery. He has called for a halt in stirring up one class against another, he has demanded an end of waste and politics in the administration of relief. And he has insisted that there shall be an end of the usurpation of power in the hands of the Executive. All of these things Landon charged against the Roosevelt administration. New Dealers Critical. Criticism on the part of the New Dealers is that Landon’s address was general in tone and that he failed to say what he proposed in the way of & program as a substitute for the New Deal. Gov. Landon has said, however, that he proposes to discuss in detail his proposals for improving conditions in the country in other speeches as the campaign proceeds. The Landon speech of acceptance ize, he said, means to him the right of employes to join any type of union they prefer, whether it covers their plant, their craft or their industry. This would cover the right of labor to organize “industrial unions” such as John L. Lewis and his C. I. O. are demanding. But Mr. Lewis is doing all in his power to defeat Landon—and long before Landon was nominated Lewis committed himself and the United Mine Workers of America, of which he is head, to the re-election of Roosevelt. Labor Views Hurtful, Too. dealt with the main issues as he sees them and gave quite clearly the Re- publican candidate’s philosophy of government’ in contrast with the philosophy of the New Deal. The speech was no more general in tone | than was the speech of acceptance made by President Roosevelt in Phila- delphia. It made no more promises than were made in the speech of the President, although Landon promised one thing and Roosevelt another. However, there is no issue between Landon and Roosevelt over relief for the destitute and unemployed. They both favor it. They both favor social security. They both favor aid for the farmers—including cash payments to the farmers where they are needed. ‘They both insist upon the right of labor to organize. ences in detail and in methods adv cated to bring these things about.

Landon, in conjunction with | his campaign manager, John Hamil- | !ton, is giving a great deal of con- | | sideration to the kind of campaign he | |is to make—whether he is to do a great amount of traveling about the country and make a large number 1 of speeches. The candidate will make | several trips to different parts of the country—the first into the East, | where he plans to speak at his birth- | place in Pennsylvania, near the Ohio line. On this trip he will speak in { up-State New York and may make | | one speech in New England, probably | | Boston. He will on another trip | Middle West, including Illinois, In- diana, Ohio, Michigan, Iowa and | Wisconsin. It seems to be unlikely | that he will make a swing clear across | the continent to the Pacific Coast, although plans may be changed to bring this about. There have been calls from practi- cally all the States for Landon. The people want to see him. The high command is taking all this into con- sideration. It is believed that he will make friends wherever he goes. Nev- ertheless, he will be able to appear before a comparatively small propor- tion of the people, no matter how much he travels in the next few months. The Republican leaders feel | that he must rely on the newspapers and the radio to get his ideas across to the voters generally. Improves in Delivery. Landon does not look upon himself as an orator. He isn't. But he has a message to carry to the people and he is improving in his method of de- livering this message. It is not al- ways the best talker who wins in a presidential campaign. While Abra- ham Lincoln had a wonderful gift as a writer of prose and for summing up issues, he was awkward and ineffec- tual as a speaker when compared to the man he defeated, Stephen A. Douglas. William Jennings Bryan cut circles around William B. McKinley and Al Smith was a great cam- paign speaker as compared to Herbert Hoover. Calvin Coolidge fell far short of the eloquence of John. W. Davis. Yet in each instance the orators in these presidential contests were de- feated and the less-gifted talkers were elected. —— BEING RETURNED HERE Joseph Marback, Arrested in West Virginia, Expected to Be Arraigned Today.

No reason for the change of mind was advanced, but it was sug- gested some of the telegrams were from Democrats and that it might not be appropriate to release them for publication. Hamilton, who left last night for Chicago, where he will resume his direction of the Republican campaign, said he had talked by telephone with leaders in various sections of the coun- try and received assurances the Gov- ernor’s acceptance speech had struck a popular mote. Two of those he dis- cussed the matter with were in New York, he said, one in Southern Tllinois, two in Pennsylvania, one in Indiana and one in the West Coast. Sees New York Victory.

By the Associated Press. WIMBLEDON, July 25—H. W. (Bunny) Austin sent England away in front in defense of the Davis Cup today when he defeated Jack Craw- ford of Australia in the opening sin- gles match of the challenge round for the famous tennis trophy. The scores were 4—6, 6—3, 6—1, 6—1. Crawford seemed to lack his old fire after taking the first set behind his crashing service. With the start of the second set, however, Austin showed deadly accuracy, clipping the base line time and again with shots that left the Australian flat-footed. A gusty wind troubled both players, especially Crawford, while rain delayed play for several minutes in the third set, with Austin leading, 5-0. ‘When not relying on his base line drives, Austin advanced to the net and volleyed effectively. Although the Englishman’s service was not as speedy as the Anzac’s, Austin placed his service balls well and easily returned Crawford's cannon balls. Sixteen thousand spectators assem- bled in the stands encircling Wimble- don’s famous Center Court as England opened her bid for her fourth straight cup victory. A sharp shower drummed on the tarpulin covering a half hour before the best three out of five series between England and Australia started. Austin apd Crawford were to be fol- lowed on the courts by Fred Perry and Adrian Quist.

It is well known by all coruected with the American team that Brundage not only warned me, but specifically re- ferred to members of two teams, namely, fleld hockey and fencing.

CAPE CHARLES, Va., July 25— Fragments of a parcel post bomb which clicked “like a mousetrap” just before it killed a man and wounded his wife here Thursday were in the hands of post office inspectors for examination and analysis today. ‘The parts were found and sent to postal laboratories in Washington by inspectors working on the case here. Close-mouthed as to his mission, Inspector C. H. Burrough left here suddénly late yesterday. The blast victim, Curry Thomas, 47-9ear-old farmer, was buried here yesterday without the knowledge of his wife. She, with a wound in her side from a splinter of steel and an njured eye, lay in Nassawodox Hos- pital slipping in and out of delirfum. During her lucid moments yesterday she said the parcel “clicked like a mousetrap” before it went off. She has not been told of her husband’s death. They had been married only & short while. “It sounded and looked like & house- trap,” the bride of 41 days cried in intervals of semi-consciousness at the hospital. She formerly was married to John Solomon, a carpenter of Hills- ville and Galax, and they had two children. They were divorced and unofficial reports here said Mrs. Thomas had sought to obtain custody of the chil- dren through legal proceedings. ILLNESS SIDETRACKS FAMOUS POLITICIAN Thomas J.

Rippy is strictly a product of the public golf courses in Washington. Coming here from Shelby, N. C., four years ago, the lanky Rippy boy, who now is employed as a salesman by a downtown sports goods store, had had little golf experience, but within a year after he started playing the pub- lic courses here he was whipping all comers—amateur or professional—at East Potomac Park. He has won everything to be won on the public courses in Washington, but has played in few of the tourna- ments held at the private clubs. In 1934 he went to the final of the In- dian Spring Country Club affair, where he beat Gene Vinson, then the District amateur champion, and fell before Roger Peacock, the present title holder.

SEPTEMBER MILK ¢ PRICE BOOST SEEN Virginia Official Paints Gloomy Picture of Dairy Outlook. By the Associated Press. RICHMOND, Va., July 25.—Kone Brugh, member of the State Milk Commission, said here yesterday he believed the commission would find it necessary to order a general ad- vance in milk prices “not later than September 1.” “I am not an alarmist,” Brugh said, “but I do not believe the seriousness of the drought has been realized gen- erally. I have traveled 1,200 miles over the State this month and seen some of the ruined pastures, 2-foot corn and scorched hay crops.” Milk production has fallen far be- low 1935 in most Virginia markets, he said, and there is a shortage of milk for manufacturing purposes in several sections. He cited Roanoke, Salem and Covington specifically. “It appears to be a case of no feed for the Winter and no money to buy feed with—if any is available.” Need Raise to Save Farms. Many Virginia dairymen needed better prices for their milk “if they are to save their farms and their milk cans,” he asserted. Pointing to a request of the Roanoke Co-operative Milk Producers’ Asso- ciation for a 4-cent per gallon ine crease to producers, as well as requests from individual dairymen from other parts of the State for increases, Brugh said he believed the commis- sion would find it necessary to order a general increase “not later than September 1.” The production of milk will continue | & “costly” industry for the next 18 | months at least, he predicted. Feed supplies carried over from la.t year ;have been practically exhausted in | some sections during the dry period, | he said, and the hay crops this year will be insufficient to carry through | the Winter, Butter Production Off. “Rain now can only give the pas- tures a brief spurt before the frosts set in, or maybe provide a little hay,” he said. | “Butter production, ordinarily on | the increase at this season, is around 17 per cent under 1935, and, despite ! better prices, the loss in income to the | dairyman has been considerable.” | The average price for milk produced for fluild consumption is about 25 cents, he said, which is above that of last year, but the production has fallen so sharply that producers’ receipts | have suffered seriously. Production on the Roanoke market he :stimated at from “75,000 to 100,000 pounds” be- low that of the same period last year. While the producers need better prices, the shortage may become so acute, Brugh predicted, that within the next few months it will be difficult to reconcile producing costs and con= sumer capacity to pay.
