(BN i PAY STATUTE i'nend Constitution for Min- fmum Wage Law, If Neces- !t sary, He Says. : the Associated Press. *NEW YORK, September 12.—A con- sfitutional amendment was urged to- rjght by Rev. Charles E. Coughlin, if necessary, to permit reasonabie Fed- efal laws establishing minimum wages. ¢ Returning to the radio for a 26- Hroadcast series, the Michigan priest peated his plea for a “living annual ge” and asserted that both Presi- dent Roosevelt and Gov. Landon had regarded this issue. ?‘“Let us realize,” he said, “that the ynity of human saciety cannot be built class warfare.

But which of e presidential candidates will adopt this principle? Unfortunately only one—the impoverished leader of the {mpoverished Union Party.™ , The priest said that “if an economic system, described as cruel and: harsh by the leaders of Christianity, pre- yents distribution of God’s gifts to our ellow men, that economic system must cashiered as was the imperialism f the Caesars, the feudalism of-the ‘harlemaignes and the divine right f kings of a George IIIL. Production Problem “Solved.” + Modern machinery has solved the Problem of production, and will con- tinue to make advances with the re- Bult “that still less work and fewer thowrs of labor will be required hence- forth to satisfy all human needs.” He fdded: “This being so, and I have not been accosted by any man who has seri- ously denied its being so, forces us to the conclusion that the hourly wage system upheld universally : modern capitalism for mass ac- tivity. must be outlawed. i “Christianity recognizes ¥his prob- Jem of distribution. - Christianity real- izes that the hourly wage system of modern capitalistic industrialism must pass out of existence and, in its stead, there must be substituted a living an- Jual wage.” JEFFERSONIAN OUT .

By tne Associated Press. CINCINNATI, September 12.—The ‘County Board of: Elections rejected animously today petitions of Rev. erbert S. Bigelow and 11 other in- Ruins of the home recently urchased by Count Haugwitz-Reventlow, husband of Barbara Hutton, Woolworth heiress, which was partially destroyed by fire. Old St. Dunstan’s Park, is in Regents Park, London. The estate, known as the —Wide World Photo. Landon (Continued from First Page.) statement that N. R. A. is dead “thanks to the courage and integrity of the Supreme Court.” Landon arrived at Portland at 6:45 pam. (Eastern standard time). A few minutes after his special train pulled in, Gov. Louis J. Brann, Democrat, boarded the Kansan's private car to extend a personal welcome. He met the presidential nominee in the draw- ing room, shook hands and welcomed him to Maine. Landon smiled his thanks. Shortly afterward the presidential candidate left the train in company of White and Senator Frederick Hale, his week end host, to head a parade to the municipal stadium. There in foggy, wet night air, stands were well | filled with spectators awaiting the Kansan's arrival. Thousands See Parade. Thousands lined the parade route and cheered the Kansan as, riding in an open automobile, he waved his hand and smiled upon them. Rain, which fell during the day, had made fulfillment of parade plans un- certain until the time of Landon’s ar- rival. Thousands of Republicans from Portland and all parts of Maine par- ticipated in the parade. Bands blared “Oh, Susanna,” and gaily decorated floats were emblazoned with “Welcome™ signs. Robinson Verrill, chairman of the Cumberland County Central Commit- tee, introduced Senator White, who presented Landon as “A Governor who promised economy and gave the peo- ple economy.” Fog drifted across the Portland High School Athletic Field, where temporary stands were decorat- ed with red, white and blue bunting. “He will keep us freed from presi- dential political influences,” White said. “He will restore legislative in- dependence to our country. “ present to you the next President of the United States, Alf M. Landon.” The crowd arose and cheered as a sand blared “Landon, Oh, Landon Will Lead to Victory.” ¢ As Landon opened his speech with a prediction of “a victory for the Na- tion,” the crowd cheered. “You will start a victory parade that will span the Nation,” Landon declared as a chorus of “rays” swelled the stadium. A minor disturbance caused Lan- don to pause a moment near the start of his address. Tax Criticism Applauded. Listening intently as the Governor criticized N. R. A, the crowd ap- plauded as he referred to the so- called surplus tax bill as “a millstone around the neck of the small business man.” The Kansas Governor said the choice of America lies between two systems. One, he said, “is the system of free competitive enterprise which, while not perfect, at least does not dole out opportunity, according to a Govern- ment yardstick—a system under which this country is still a freer, s happier place to live in than any other coun- try in the world.” On the other side, the Republican presidential nominee said, is “a sys- tem under which the privacy of our homes is invaded—our fields lie idle 'by Governmental edict—and across the length and breadth of America a million signs spring up ‘by order of the Government, keep off.’” “When the decision of one man affects an entire country, a wrong decision means disaster,” the Kansan con- tinued. Criticizes Roosevelt Directly. In direct references to his Demo- cratic opponent, Landon said the United States lost “one great oppor- tunity to lead the way toward world peace and economic security” because President Roosévelt “turned his back upon this international co-operative effort”—the 1933 London Economic Conference. Again, describing N. R. A. as “the beginning in America of the move- ment which, throughout the world, has been sweeping aside private en- terprise in favor of government con- trol * * * substituting arbitrary per- sonal authority for constitutional self-government,” the Kansan said: “The spirit of the N. R. A7 * ¢ lives on in the spirit of the President who has confessed no error—who has let it be clearly known that he con- sidered it would be a catastrophe if the American farmer should- ‘once more become a lord on his own farm.’” A Landon said “we have but to look across the waters to see the conse- quences of government domination over economic life.” “Step by step living standards have fallen,” ‘he said, “Productivity has decreased. Human beings have be- | come more and more dependent upon & government which, in turn, has be- come less and less able to take care of them. That is one reason why the Republican party stands squarely across the road down which we are driven by the present Admin- tion. ¢ * We are being man against the aggressive exploita- tion by the strong.” Landon said that as conditions. be- came more complex, “the Federal Government became active in protect- ing the economic freedom and the welfare of our citizens.” “As a result,” he continued, “we have our laws on pure foods, public health, banking, transportation, work- men'’s compensation, safety appliances, monopolies and unfair trade prac- tices, and more recently our laws regulating public utilif and the is- suance of securities. * * ¢ “But they were based on the phil- osophy we have always followed—the philosophy of economic freedom. Not one (f them has weakened the fun- damental character of our Govern- ‘ment. * * ¢ “Then came the N. R. A, * * * This philosophy decreed that prices should be regulated, not by demand and sup- ply, but by Government edict; that wages and hours of employes should be fixed, not by free and fair negotia- tions under rules assuring equality, but by officials in Washington; that the sort of competition which must be fostered, as the life-blood of free enterprise, should in the future be prohibited by law. * * * Special Train Crowded. “But business men, salaried work- ers, wage earners and farmers now recognize that centralized Govern- ment management of their affairs has failed. They realize that special priv- ilege to onme group merely creates a demand for special privileges by every other group able to exert political pressure.” From shortly after dawn, when the first delegation of Eastern Repub- licans got aboard at Trenton, N. J., before the candidate had dressed, until arrival in Portland at dusk, Landon's special train was crowded with party leaders and workers who paraded tbrough the cars in an effort to see the Kansan. From time to time the Governor, his hair ruffied by salt breezes crossing the rear platform, came forward to greet visitors. A series of three-minute talks, in which Landon centered his remarks on unemployment and relief, were made as the train paused at points in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine. Prequently, as the train sped past stations with- out stopping, groups waved sunflow- ers and banners. “The country is facing many prob- lems of importance today,” the can- didate told audiences which fre- quently broke in with cheers, “one of the most vital of these problems is that of restoring to 11,000,000 un- employed fellow citizens their birth- right of becoming self-supporting, self-reliant and independent citizens once more. No Future On Relief. “There is no future for any Ameri- can on the relief roll. No nation can prosper while one-fifth of those who earn their own living are denied real work and left' depgndent upon the work of others for their support. “Until we can restore confidence and speed up recovery, we must con- tinue to provide relief for all those who need relief. But we owe it to ourselves and to the honor of the America that we love to purge relief of all partisanship, incompetence and waste. “The American people, if I know them, do not wish to save a dollar at the expense of the needy unemployed; but they demand that every dollar appropriated for relief shall be spent upon the needy and not one cent upon political exploiters. “It is beneath the dignity of a great Nation to dole out bread for votes.” Brann (Continued from First Page)) ‘The schools of Kansas have not been kept open.” Turning to recently disclosed con- tributions by wealthy American fam- ilies to the Republican campaign fund, Brann asked Landon if he sanctioned contributions made by J. P. Morgan. “Gov. Landon made the following statement on July 26, 1933,” said Brann, “‘(quote) Racketeers like In- sull, Morgan and Van Sweringen will be driven out of finance and industry by the scorn of honest people and the the quoted statement and “repudiate the contribution.” Answering ‘his opponent’s demand that he tell whether he was for or against the New Deal, Brann said: Stands for Maine New Deal. “The deal I stand for is the best Politics (Continued From First Page.) national committee, at one time played with the idea of getting Cou- zens to run in the Democratie pri- mary for the senatorial nomination. But Couzens was unwilling, appar- ently, to take that step, although he has lined himself up with the Dem- ocratic national ticket. Representa- tive Prentiss M. Brown is seeking the Democratic senatorial nomination, to run against either Couzens or Brucker in the general election in November. Almost on the eve of the primary, the Senatorial Campaign Investigat- ing Committee sent investigators into Michigan to ruh down reports that “$3,000,000” had been contributed for use in the campaign. The great vol- ume of this money, it was charged in some quarters, had been contrib- uted to beat Couzens. So far, noth- ing has come to light to substantiate the charge. Wisconsin's Progressives, under leadership of Senator La Follette and Gov. La Follette, are expected to line up with President Roosevelt. The La Follette brothers took part in the “Progressive Conference” Friday in Chicago, which issued a declaration of support for Roosevelt. What the Republicans and the Progressives and the Democrats do in the Wisconsin primary Tuesday may be significant. Undoubtedly estimates of New Deal strength in the State will be made on the sum of votes cast in the Pro- gressive and Democratic primaries. Because of the alliance between the La Follettes and Roosevelt, the Re- publican high command has been inclined to regard Wisconsin as too tough a nut to crack this year. Progressives Back Roosevelt. The long awaited Progressive con- ference set up a new organization to work for the re-election of Roosevelt. 1t is aimed particularly at the Lemke- O'Brien Union Party ticket, which it has been feared, would take votes away from Roosevelt in many States. In the resolutions adopted, particular stress is placed on the need of all progressives giving their support to Roosevelt. The conference did not bring into fleld new adherents of Roosevelt—unless Mayor La Guardia of New York be so considered. Many labor leaders attended the conference, giving additional color to the claim that organized Jabor is lining up back of the President. Roosevelt's strength in the South was again shown last week, when Gov. Eugene Talmadge of Georgis, a severe critic of the New Deal, was over- whelmingly defeated in the Demo- cratic Senatorial primary by Senator Russell, & Roosevelt man. The Presi- dent himself invaded the South to deljver his “Green Pastures” address in Charlotte, N. C. Simultaneously, the traditionally Democratic Balti- more Sun declared it could not and would not support Roosevelt for re- election. Out in Nebraska, the veteran Sena- tor George B. Norris, Roosevelt sup- porter, was finally drafted to run as an independent for his old seat in the Senate. Petitions signed by 40,504 persons were filed in behalf of Norris and his name now goes on the ballot. The New Dealers have pressed hard to get Norris into this race, believing his candidacy would help President Roosevelt carry the State. Norris, who was unable to attend the Progres- sive conference in Chicago, sent that group a letter strongly demanding re- election of the President. It was Nor- ris who, something more than four years ago, at a similar Progressive conference in Washington declared “what country needs is another Roosevelt.” Maine to Pick Three Representatives.

Hugh 8, Johnson, former N. R. A. administrator, in an address prepared for delivery at a Democratic rally here tonight, called upon “poor people” to “stick by the only President in history who ever threw the force of Govern- ment into the fight for social justice— Pranklin Roosevelt.” He said the Republican presidential candidate, Gov. Alf M. Landon, “preaches pure Hooverism” and that “the Old Guard have lapped up Lan- don as the whale swallowed Jonah.” He accused Gov. Landon of changing his stand on Federal regulation of. in- dustry “when thé Old Guard got him.” Quoting the Governor as saying in his Kansas State campaign in 1933 that “regulation of competition should be permitted under Government su| vision,” and that “State compacts * * * are the deadest horses I know,” John- son said, “He now says that State com- pacts controlling industry are the an- swer.” “The Old Guard says that neither the Government nor the people can en- ter their vast fleld of economic anarchy to protect the Nation,” he declared. “Under the Old Guard doctrine, which Landon has swallowed whole, we can- not even vote upon the question.” ‘The result, he said, was that “the only issue of this campaign is equal op- portunity against special privilege. Thomas Jefferson against Alexander Hamilton—and that leaves no room for any Democrat to take a walk. We may not agree with the whole New Deal, but its basis is democracy. Its opposition is economic autocracy. * * * “The New Deal only says the plain people shall not be at the mercy of every economic wind that blows. * * * For the 85 per cent of us who are not strong enough to ride the economic whirlwind, it saves us from regimenta- tion by private economic control of those who are stronger. ® * * “If enough poor people split away from Roosevelt they can elect, not Lemke (Representative William Lemke, Union party candidate for President) but Landon. When that happens they had better begin looking for sympathy in the dictionary. They won't find it in the old guard, whose idea of social justice is, and ever has been, the famous Hoover hardscrapple—‘rugged individualism'—root hog or die and the devil take the hindmost.” Gen. Johnson said ‘“Frank Knox (Col. Frank Knox, Republican candi- date for Vice President), has repeat- edly said that Hooverism had the depression licked in 1932 and that all Roosevelt' had to do was just stand aside and let the old guard medicine work. “What does this mean? It can only mean one thing. If Hooverism was the answer at our worst, then Hooverism is the snswer they are cooking up for us now. “That isn't & guess.

Coughlin’s National Union for Social Justice helped lift these to a plane of interest not frequently attained in Wisconsin eléctions. La Follette Status a Factor. Another factor toward this was the primary status of Gov. Philip La Fole lette. The Governor, who particie pated Priday in the National Pro- gressive Conference’s indorsement of President Roosevelt, was unopposed for the Progressive party renomina- tion. As a result, Republican and Demo- cratic aspirants for his post already have started campaigning against him, virtually to the ignoring of their intraparty rivals. Seeking the Republican nqmina- tion were Alexander Wiley of Chip~ pewa Falls and John B. Chapple of Ashland. Chapple twice has won his party’s nomination for United States Senator.
