BOILERS STIR CAMPAIGN INTEREST
IN NEBRASKA and IOWA FARM BELT

Omaha, Neb., Sept. 25.-(P)-Ne.
braska and Iowa farmers, principa
"industrialists" in those states, have
taken an analytical turn of mine
in the presidential campaigns and
are eager to discern what they car
from the many announcements OF
Herbert Hoover and Gov. Alfred E.
Smith and their associates on the
question of agriculture.
While the issues are fairly well
defined, and were so defined early
in the campaign, the cmblematica
elephant and donkey have felt the
pain OF bolts-for much boiling has
there been. For awhile the respec-
tive parties were certain of the is
sues, but they were not certain
who would stay to fight the issues.
In Nebraska the boiling route has
been resorted to by two leaders.
DR.. Jennie Callfas, bone dry. an
nounced her support of Herbert
Hoover and declared that her lob
as national committeewoman of
the Democratic party was vacant.
She did not offer her resignation,
however.
F. A. Good, who was a sort Of
personal adviser to Gov. Adam Nc
Mullen, McNary Haugen bill lead
err, announced he would support
Governor Smith because Of the
farm relief question. His former
chief, the governor, stayed by the
ship OF Republicanism, but in q re-
cent statement, declared that Sem
ator Robinson's address of accept
ance as Democratic vice presiden-
tlal nominee was the "best" dis
course on helping out the farmer
chat the executive had seen.
An important pronouncement
came from Iowa when a farm group
backed George N. Peek, head of
he corn belt committee Of twenty
,wo, in supporting Governor Smith.
Peek worked hard at Kansas City
or the nomination of Frank 9.
Lowden of Illinois. The commit

Little time has been lost in Iowa
IN launching into the campaign for

have opened state headquarters in
Des Moines, and floor space for
this purpose is larger than it has

party differences over farm relief

All in all, the voters already feel
they have been assured of "the
most for their money" in campaign
entertainment, due to the desire Of
the candidate to "cinch" the farm
vote, especially in Nebraska and
Iowa.

GAMMA WALSKA
FIGHTS PAYING
CUSTOMS DUTY
Rights Of Modern Woman
Form Basis of Appeal to
Evade Collectors Ruling

New York, Sept. 25.-(P-Rights
of the modern woman form the basis
of the appeal of Nine. Gamma
Walska, wife Of Harold F. McCor-
mick, from the ruling of the COL
lector of the port of New York that
she must pay duty on clothing and
jewelry valued at $2,500,O0O if she
wishes to bring them into this
country.
Nine. Walska had argued that she
is resident Of Paris and therefore
free to bring in her personal belong
1ngs without payment of duty.
Her contention was overrulcd by
Philip Citing, collector Of the port,
and her lawyer has appealed to
Washington. The collector ruled that
as she is the wife of q citizen of
the United States, whose residence
is in this country, her residence also
is here.
The appeal points out that Nine.
Walska and Mr.. Mccormick, al
though not legally separated, have
been living separately and that she
has established her residence abroad
by purchasing a home, a theatre, and
setting up business establishment
in Paris, taking up the old common
law which regards a man and wife
rs single identity.
Whatever the ruling in Washing
ton, it was indicated that the case
would probably be contested into
the highest court of jurisdiction in
the country, the court Of customs
appeal.
Nine. Walska was permitted to
take from her trunks few belong
ings which customs officials said
had been purchased in this country
and were therefore not dutiable. II
she loses her case the trunks can
be shipped back to Paris without
payment of duty.

Preacher Breakfasts At
tack on Present Order

Chicago-(FP)-Using VIGIL, the
labor radio, the Rev. William Baily
Waltmire of the Des PLANES Metho-
dist church, is attacking the capitalist
industrial order in series of broad
casts. Competitive industry is based
on self interest in which the stronger
exterminates the weaker or brings
him to terms in a private monopoly,
which based on self interest, then
charges all the traffic will bear. All
this is against the church's teachings
of human brotherhood, he asserts.
The time on VIGIL is purchased by
the Radio League of Reconciliation, a
church organization. Waltmire is a
member of the Methodist Federation
for Social Service, the organized pro-
gressive wing of that denomination.
There is a lot of pious bunk" he
tells his radio audience, "about the
dlftlculty of applying christian prin-
clples to business. The trouble is that
these people don't want to apply
them. We are dominated by the most
autocratic industrial system known
since the days of Rome, For a true
picture of unrestrained capitalism see

day or England a century ago. Cap
ltalism will not reform, itself"
Reform of capitalism will come. he
hopes, through the church and the de-
velopment of collective bargaining by
strong trade unions.
1t may seem a far cry from the
economic struggle to the church. .

EDITOR TELLSOF OIL
FINDINGS AT POPLAR

Poplar.-A Sudden rush of gas and
oil-tinged water from the test hole
south of this city, reported by the
drillers late Tuesday night, of last
week, caused a great deal of specula-
ton and interest in the situation
among citizens of this and neighbor-
ing cities that night and Wednesday
morning and it was thought possible
that oil might be at hand.
A thorough investigation early
Wednesday disclosed, however, no bas-
is for any change in operations or in
the status of the test and drilling will
be continued at once.
The drillers were working in a
sandstone formation to hard for the
spade-tail drill at about $3.50 Tuesday
afternoon and pulled up the rods to
change to a diamond drill.
During this halt in operations gas,
water, and some oil started to gush
from the hole and the gas soon ignit-
ed from the drill-house stove, setting
the building on fire
A steam hose soon extinguished the
fire and the drillers capped the hole
and sent word to officials of the Com
munity Drilling Company.
Several men from this city went out
to the well Wednesday morning, there
being hopes at that time that uncap-
ping of the hole would bring to light
the presence of oil.
No noticeable quantity of oil was
seen Wednesday,, but water saturated
with gas was still flowing from the
hole. The gas will burn freely when
touch by a match.
Drilling is now at a depth of 3081
feet. Present casing is so feet from
the bottom and the drillers are under
roaming and preparing to sing casing
the remainder of the distance. This
casing will keep out any further flow
of water and after pumping out the
hole, drilling will be resumed
The hard formation now being drill
ed in will be gone through to reach
the first possible sands and if neces
sary, work will be continued until the
second possible producing sand il
: reached.
The drillers believe that the water
entered the hole through crevice il
tn hard rock they are now working in

LIFT CURTAIN ON
BOMB FRAME-UPS

mouths
Bombings in Chicago are long and

Though 62 bombings of all sorts
