IOWAN FLAYS
HOOVER farm
RELIEF STAND
Candidates In All
Parts Of N alton
Would Be Launched
Under Proposal

WASHINGTON. June 12.-(Pl-
Selection Of a progressive" candi-
date for president and the forma-
ton Of an active progressive party
was advocated in the senate today
by Smith W. Brookhart of Iowa,
who stumped the West for Herbert
Hoover. unless the export deben-
ture proposition was approved by
the administration as either a part
Of the pending farm relief or tariff
bills.
The suggestion that the deben-
ture plan ultimately might be at
tached TO the tariff measure has
been advanced by a number Of
other senators and is known TO
have considerable sympathy among
house democratic leaders.
The Iowan declared he now de-
sired TO say to progressive mem
bers Of the senate on both sides"
that If the proposition was re-
Jected the time has come to or
ganiZe for q fight to the finish"
IF the debenture." he added, "in
the form I have here suggested. or
in its present form, cannot be put
into the farm bill. I think the bin
should be permitted to pass with
out IT,"
The Iowan took the floor shorSAy
after the senate convened at noon
and at about the hour that the
farm relief bill formally was re.
turned to the house as a result of
the senate's refusal to approve f1le
measure with the debenture elit-
mated. The representatives Off
cially we're advised that the SEN
ate had voted As to 43 TO insist
upon incorporation Of the PROPOSE
tion. In the house the measure
was placed on the speakers table
10 await action, probably tomor-
row.
Brookhart ripped intot he admin
istration forces as soon as the sem
ate met. and insisted the time had
arrived for fight to the finrs7
on the debenture plan.
In order to make sure that this
oe possible" " he said, I'VE should at
once organize to put up q pro-
gressive candidate in every congress
sional district and for senator IN
every state, who will fight for this
program. And If the bill should be
vetoed, we should follow this with
Q progressive candidate for presi-
dent"
WASHINGTON. June 12-LP-

main body. What could be easier than
to dispose of US while we were hope
lessly outnumbered and then turn on
my companions? This was a matter of
genuine concern. Furthermore, we had
given away our presents and only q
few remained to dispose of in an ener-
gency. There was chance that no one
would go with us and We would be ma
rooned in this out-of-the-wa spot,
unable to join our main party.
With feelings of relief we heard OF
other Indians desiring to go with us.
Three men from the Kalapalo tribe
were visiting Cabazala for few days
and had decided that this was good
time to go home. Our route apparently
conceded with theirs and it was an
easy way for them to earn a good knife
by accompanying us that far.
Garry Considerable Cargo.
At Z o'clock our party, consisting
of Joao Climaco, the Balkan; boy and
myself. started. We were accompanied
by Aloique. Rapatzi and three Kalapala
Indians. Each of us carried consider
able cargo, the Indians shouldering less
than we did. For two hours we
traversed muddy stretch of country.
Bog land extended to the right and left.
Apparently the trail was leading us into
the very heart of tremendous swamp.
1t ended abruptly on a solitary patch
OF dry ground with water on all sides
except the one we had come by. To our
surprise we found so or 10 Indians, men
and women, sitting on the ground.
Aloique told us that they were on the
way to the malocas of the Mantizula
Indians, but we were at loss to under
stand why every one had come to a
dead stop in place from which there
was no exit.
We were not left long in suspense
Several very rickety canoes were pro-
duced. We clambered in and padded
of through narrow channels of deep
water.
1t was a most treacherous looking
place. To upset in these dark pools
would not have been a pleasant eX-
perience. Man-eating fish, snakes,
crocodiles, etc.; it looked like an ideal
place for them to live. Twenty min
utes later we were once more on terra
f1rma striking across open grassy
country that bordered on the swamp.
Meet Indian Travelling Alone.
We encountered a solitary Anauoua
Indian travelling by himself. Aloique at
once roped him in to help us and gave
him his load to shoulder. I was sur
prised to note how reluctant the men
were to carry anything. 1t is woman's
task and the male sex make terrible
fuss over the smallest bundle. They
won't sling it on their backs the way
the women do, but prefer to rest 1t I'M
comfortably on the shoulder and steady
it with one hand, this being a more
manly method
Aloique was heavy-set fellow and
should have been capable of carrying
house. Yet his grunts and groans
under a 30-pound parcel were childlike.
The new Indian Matuala by name, took
Aloique's load cheerfully and handed
his bow and arrows to Aloique to carry.

followed directly behind the Anau-
qua chief. Little conversation ensued. I
was too busy watching my step and
carrying my rife to exchange remarks
with Joao Climaco.
Aloique surprised me by abruptly
turning around and indicating that he
would relieve me Of some of my load
to the extent of my rifle. Without
further thought I handed 1t to him,
glad to be less encountered. I had
hardly done so before I realized the
mistake. 1t was then too late to get
it back. Aloique had taken unusual
interest in that rifle. 1t was .38 VIM
chester short barrel and most handy
weapon for such expeditions.
We tramped on couple OF hours
further and once more halted on the
edge of a swamp. Two canoes were
again miraculously conjured up from
the tall grass and we padded off down
labyrinth of narrow canals running
heaven knows where.
