Knox assailed the administration's relief | program. Boos Heard in Audience. Shortly after Col. Knox began speaking, a few scattered boos broke out in the audience, but a round o(i applause drowned them. H Some booing also occurred among sidewalk spectators shortly after the nominee left the Perry Building last night en route to a downtown hotel. Associates said no such demonstra- tion had occurred at any other city on the route of the 22,000-mile cam- paign tour. “I cannot understand,” he declared at the rally, “a system of Federal re- lief under which one State received 90 per cent of its relief from the Fed- eral Government while another re- ceives 40 per cent. I cannot under- stand a system in which the costs per relief case are $866 in one State and $200 in another. G. O.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, September 19.—The Holy Name Society had a clear call from its leadership today to unite in opposing communism and leading the world back to religion. One suggestion, from the Holy Name Union of Los Angeles and San Diego, proposed that the society, hoiding its first convention since 1924, meet annually to strengthen its cam- paign against “the growing menace of communism.” “We of America may well fear the insidious and subtle propaganda of communism,” Msgr. Michael O'Gor- man, director of the Los Angeles-San Diego Union, told the convention last night. “Few groups, few movements, few organizations are to be free of the pernicious propaganda cells. “Our society can and must again lead the world out of the meshes of irreligion and restore to Christ the things He so ardently desires, namely, the love and service of pure hearts.” Most Rev. John T. McNicholas, archbishop of Cincinnati and national director of the society, told a rally 1ast night that the society's teachings could have been applied advantage- ously in troubled Spain. “In these times, when men's minds are confused and abuses are general, the Holy Name asks that the false position of Anarchists, of Commun- ists, of Socialists and of all danger- ous radicals be seen by human reascn at its best, illumined by the light of He expressed the hope that the press, schools, and “all liberal agencies now encouraging communistic or dangerous radical tendencies may pause to consider and to understand fully all the implications of their words and actions.” Fly Ruins Oats.

ROOSEVELT PROMISES BROKEN, SAYS TURNER Iowa Ex-Governor in Radio In- terview Hits Signing of Farm Tariff Treaties. By the Associated Press. Dan W. Turner, former Governor of Towa, said in a radio talk last night under Republican auspices that Presi- dent Roosevelt had “broken his prom- ise” to keep agricultural tariffs at their former level. Interviewed by William Hard, Tur- ner sald the President had broken his promise repeatedly, and “signed tariff treaty after tariff treaty, lowering the duties on agriculutural products.” The Canadian treaty was cited by Turner as one instance. He said it lowered the duty on cattle, with the result that during the first six months of this year 279,500 head of foreign cattle came into this country. Gov. Alf Landon, Turner said, helped to make the Republican farm platform and would carry it out. “And Gov. Landon has never broken a promise,” he added.
