RESTS ON
FARMERS
Republicans Plan Hard
Campaign in the Rural
Sections.
BORAH CALLED IN
Idaho Senator's Idea
For Special Session
Adopted.
BY THOMAS L. STOKES
United Press Staff Correspondent

OA1GCu lCoo Quail SOllCopO1luChb
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-Herbert
Hoover and his advisers decided to-
day to make vigorous appeal for
the farm vote, which may decide
the election, in the final days of
the campaign.
This decision took the form of
movement for a special session of
congress to take up farm relief leg
islation, sponsored by Senator Borah
of Idaho with the approval of Hoov-
Cl.
After conference with Hoover,
the Idaho senator issued a state
ment urging a special session, unless
some action is taken at the coming
short session, which he said should
pass measures:
l, Increasing tariff duties upon
farm products.
2. Establishing a more satisfac-
tory market system $50 as to en-
able the farmers to market their
products without the enormous ex-
pense which is now necessarily in
ourred.''
3. Setting up a federal farm
! board.
"The campaigning has developed
these issues so that there need not
be any unnecessary delay Borah
said. "There is every reason for a
special session and to my mind no
sound reason against it,
Hoover's headquarters several
days ago said special session had
been considered but no conclusion
reached. The movement, was left
to Borah, who is the chief stump
speaker for Hoover.
The idaho senator returned here
yesterday from his southern tour
and Immediately made plans for
final tour. He will return to the
south for a speech at Asheville, n.
c., next Monday or Tuesday, and
then will pick up Governor Alfred
f. Smith s trail in the east in the
closing week speaking at Baltimore,
! Boston, and Utica, New York.
Borah Explains
Borah was put on the grill soon
after his return here by reporters
representing Democratic newspapers,
who claimed his support of Hoover
is inconsistent with his "pro-
gressive' stand upon issues in the
senate.
He explained he was supporting
Hoover chiefly because of the Re-
publican candidates prohibition
stand.
"I have not to my knowledge
made any statement in the campaign
in conflict with my position in the
last 10 years. he said. "I con-
! slider prohibition the dominant is
sue, and l said this two years be-
fore the campaign
Turning to the waterpower issue,
Borah said that Hoover had en-
dorsed the Swing-Johnson Boulder
| Canyon Dam bill two years ago, ac-
cording to a speech made by Senator
Johnson, Republican, California, at
luncheon. He could not recall the
time and place of the luncheon.
Smiths waterpower program was
| criticized by the Idaho senator.
81 believe that under the Smith
! plan the power trust would get
profits ON public money invested in
generating plants" he said.

ating plant and the private company
