Income Will Obviate Higher Taxes. By Lhe Associated Press. After predicting shat the Federal budget would balance in a year or two, President Roosevelt resumed his Eastern campaign travels foday while Alfred E. Smith, now definitely a Landonite, planned more attacis on the New Deal. At Topeka, Gov. Alf M. Landon expressed deep appreciation for the support of Smith, the 1928 Democratic standard bearer, who called for the Kansas Governor'’s election to the presidency in a New York speech last right. There was no immediate comment from the President on this pro- nouncement by his one-time ally. The Chief Executive, speaking before a Pittsburgh throng last night, discussed New Deal expenditures, calling them an “investment in the future of America.” ~ Smith’s threat of last January to “take a walk” became an actuality when he stood before a Carnegie Hall audience and declared that “the remedy for all the ills that we are suffering today is the election of Alf M. Landon.” Landon conferred last night with Herbert Hoover, who later left to cam- paign in the East. “The Republican cause is making progress,” Hoover said. Landon’s partner on the national ticket, Col. Frank Knox, who spoke in Pittsburgh shortly before Mr. Roosevelt, renewed previous charges that New Deal financial policies endanger insurance and savings. - e = 0 Election of Kansan |Results Are Claimed Is Declared Remedy | For 8 Billion Boost For All Ills of U.

YANKEES — Schumacher's first pitch to Crosetti was a strike, and Umpire Harry Geisel, behind the plate, halted the game, took the ball from Mancuso and presented it to President Roosevelt on the next pitch. Crosetti singled to left. Rolfe walked, Schu- macher getting only one ball over the plate. Di Maggio swung at the first ball, then bunted perfectly down the first-base line for a hit, filling the bases. Gehrig hit the first ball and sent a fly to Ott. Crosetti scoring after the catch and Rolfe going to third. Bchumacher’s first delivery to Dickey glanced off Mancuso's glove for a wild pitch, Di Maggio taking second. With & count of three and two, Dickey flied to Leiber, whose throw to the plate was too late to catch Rolfe, who scored, but Di Maggio was doubled trying to reach third when Jackson cut off Lei- ber’s throw and whipped the ball to Bartell.

Terry hit the first pitch for a single to center. Leiber walked on four straight pitches. Ott watched two balls go by and flied to Di Maggio. No runs. Yankees, 2; Giants, 0. SECOND INNING. YANKEES—Selkirk watched three balls and two strikes go by, and finally walked. Southpaw Al Smith, who started to warm up in the first inning, again climbed off the bench in the bullpen and started to throw. Powell took a ball and lined to Ott. With a two-and-one count on Lazzeri, Selkirk was out stealing, Mancuso to White- head. The Yanks protested that Laz- zeri had fouled the pitch on which Belkirk had broke, but Umpire Geisel maintained that the batter had missed completely. ' Schumacher’s next three pitches were wide and Laszeri walked. Gomez went down swinging after a two-and-two count. No runs. GIANTS—Mancuso walked on five pitches. Whitehead hit a three-and- two pitch, and Selkirk banged into the right-field wall to catch his fiy. Also hitting after a three-and-two copnt, Jackson lifted a short fiy to Selkirk.

His private section back of the Giant dug- out, with room for 48, gleamed bright- est of all in a setting of sunshine and rosettes of national colors. When the bleacher ticket windows were raised at 8:30 a.m. (E. 8. T.,) the full quota of 4,000 patrons at $1.10 each piled right into the park, but there was no such rush for the 17,000 unreserved seats in the far corners of the horseshoe grandstands that al- most encircle the park. No more than 5,000 answered the opening gong, picked the choice locations, and settled down for the preliminary entertain- ment. Giant club officials were not wor- ried, however, though opening day attendance was some 12,000 below the 52,000 capacity of the park. The Giants never have sold out their ball yard for a world series, but this was one day they felt confident of the phenomena, for you could almost feel the mounting sun, getting hotter and hotter by the minute, drawing the fans in off the streets and avenues.

GOULD LINCOLN, Staff Correspondent of The Star. CHICAGO, 111, October 2.—This is the time, say the Republican leaders | here, for all good farmers “to come to the aid of the party.” And paraphrasing another old saw, they are saying: “As the farmers go so goes Illinois.” There is more than a modicum of truth in this. If the Republicans are unable to persuade the Iilinois farmers to swing back into their old places in the G. O. P. ranks, the jig is up for Landon in this State, just as it is in a long series of these Midwest States. Already a considerable number of the farmers are lining up for the Re- publican ticket. But the indications are that many of them are still hang- ing back, are on the fence and may jump one way or the other. Here is an accurate picture of their prob- lem as I have been able to get, after talking with both New Deal and Re- publican leaders in the scramble for the farm vote. Roosevelt is for production con- trol, and Landon is against it. The farmers are constantly reminded by the disciples of the New Deal that prices of their products reached rock bottom in 1932—when there was no production control. Today farm prices are higher than they have been for years. That, say the New Dealers, is due to production control, and when the Republicans bring up the ques- tion of the drought and what it has done to affect prices of food stuffs and drive them upward, the New Dealers declare that divine providence cannot be relied upon always to pro- duce a drought at the right time, Many Farmers Convinced. ‘The upshot of this is many of the farmers have come to the conclusion that they cannot raise just as much wheat, just as much corn and just as many hogs as they may wish to raise and continue to get high prices. The farmers have been pleased, too, with the operation of the Farm Credit Administration and the re- financing of farm mortgages there- under. They have appreciated more (See LINCOLN, Page A-§.)

'PACT TO OUTLAW WAR IS PROPOSED Draft of Agreement Affecting { Nations of Americas Is Preg sented by U. S. B the Associated Press. The draft of a far-reaching neutral- ity pact to outlaw war among the na- | tions of the Americas has been pre- sented by the United States to repre- sentatives of Latin American govern- | ments in Washington. | It constitutes a proposal which this Government intends to submit to the | forthcoming Inter - American Peace | Conference at Buenos Aires if the other countries approve. Considered by this Government to be an important step toward the per- fection of peace machinery in the Western Hemisphere, the proposed | pact would obligate the signatories to | settlement of disputes by pacific means and would leave neutrgl powers free to curtail trade and financial assistance to belligerents in case war should break out. Direct embargoes on sales of war material to nations engaged in hos- tilities and on credits to belligerents would be provided. These restrictions would not apply to nations of the Americas which Under this proposal, an employe ! with 30 years’ service, would be eligible for retirement upon reaching the age | of 60, and draw full annuity. In the same circumstances, the Govern- ment could exercise its option and re- tire the worker, but only where such action was deemed in the interest of efficiency. ‘The $5,000,000 figure is based only on the number of employes who | | logically could be expected to take | advantage of the retirement privilege.

The life of the city is proceeding | calmly and normally, the carrespond- {ent said, and the insurgents are awaiting reinforcements to dislodge government troops occupying strategic points near the southern gateways of the town.

WHISPERING CAMPAIGN. \Copyright, 1936, by the Assoctated °ress.) TOLEDO, Spain, October 2.—Artful Fascist commanders added a whisper- ing campaign and the baleful roar of canon to their military drive against Madrid today. Insurgent officers disclosed Gen. Francisco Franco hopes to substitute “fear for force” in the onslaught against the capital toward which three Fascist columns are pushing. The high command is maneuvering its forces close to Madrid, on both the north and south sides, in an attempt to place artillery batteries near the suburbs, the general staff declared. Once in position, the gunners would bombard the outskirts, the officers predicted, to throw suburban residents into a panic and start a general move- ment into the city. Coupled with the barrage—which might be more nolsy than deadly— would be a whispering campaign that “the Moors are coming,” the lieuten- ants of the Fascist military com- mander said. They asserted fear over a projected invasion of the capital by the Moorish legionnaires in the insurgent columns was growing daily in Madrid. As strategists outlined their plans, relentless columns tramped northe bound highways toward the capital . |One moved beyond Illescas, another Mrs. pushed ahead toward Navalcarnero, and a third was pointed at Aranjuez.
