WATSON MAKES SPEECH
Indiana Senators Declares That Re pubIiCanS Oher Best Solution for Rrmefs' Problems.

Frankfort. Ind. August 2S P'- United States Senator James E.. Wat son in a speech prepared for dellv- cry here today said his party had clearly outlined means of solving the farm problem while the demo- crats have yet to offer concrete plan for the guidance of the people on this subject. The senator held that there was only two ways of handling the crop surplus-to purchase 1t in accord ance with the terms of the McNary bill, sell it abroad at whatever price can be obtained and distribute the loss over the producers of the par ticular crop in question: or to take money directly from the treasury and buy the surplus. store it, until a shortage occurs, and then feed it into the market in accordance with the demand.
 The speaker declared that the democratic platform was against taking money from the treasury to buy surplus crops and that Gov. Smith, the democratic presidential nominee, was opposed to the other solution.
 Herbert Hoover, republican presi- dential candidate, Senator Watson added, clearly interpreted the repub- lican platform plank of the subject to mean the appropriation of money from the treasury to set up board 10 buy the surplus crop and deal with 1t as their Judgment seems best aL that lile.
 This is a fixed, definite program of action and if given a fair trial will solve the problem Watson added.
