Democratic Chief Advocates
Dry Referendum as Part
of Program.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.-New is
sues have been thrust into the con-
Eressional election just one week
away by John J. Raskob, chairman
of the Democratic national COM
mittee.
In a radio address Monday night,
the Democratic national chairman
outlined a broad political program
including the following:
l. A flve-day week for ALL
2. All holidays except possibly
Christmas to be on Mondays in or
der to give a three-day weekend.
8. Enforcement of liquor excise
taxes against bootleg liquor and
national referendum on prohibition.
He estimated that 5000, 100000 would
have been collected on the basis of
876,000,000 gallons of illicit liquor
produced last year, according to
government estimates, and that this
sum could be cut off of income
taxes, releasing that much purchas-
ing power.
Takes Campaign Lead
4. Power to the federal trade
commission to grant immunity from
criminal prosecution to mergers not
inimical to public interest nor in
conflict with the spirit of antitrust
laws.
5. Abolition of the capital gain
and loss taxes to encourage invest
ment of capital in speculative en-
terprises
6. Removal of the tariff from pol
iticS by creation of bipartisan tar
if commission, appointed for life,
surrounded with dignity like that of
the United States supreme court,
empowered to make recommends
tons to congress, which could not
consider any amendments except
those germane to items concerned.
Raskob declared everything thor
oughly has been Debated, that bust
ness now is turning upward, and
that soon we shall all be singing
Happy days are here again"
Emerging with this program from
the background where he has re-
manned since the defeat of former
Governor Smith two years ago, Ras-
kob has taken the lead in the final
days of the Democratic campaign.
Robinson to Answer
Republicans are expected to
seize upon this development to con-
centrate their FIRE on RaSkob, know
ing that some sections of his own
party strongly are opposed to his
prohibition views and to his
control of the Democratic national
committee.
The Republican national commit
tee has announced that Senator Ar
thur Robinson rep. Ind will go
on the air tonight to discuss
Raskob.

TIE expressed his views on mill

There are men in America to-
day, financial failures, who have
more real brains than I ever will
have. I had the luck to get my
opportunity; their opportunity
never came.

It was decided yesterday at a

Of the Treasury Department, re-
garding objections and sugges-

report, however, was not made
public, and the planning commits

Senator HOweII'S Views
Between these two utterly d.
vergent views came that of Sen
ator r. B. Howell (R) of Ne
braska, a dry. but a dry who is
wholly dissatisfied with prohibi-
ton "as is" and who has had
considerable part in calling atten-
ton to its present shortcomings
from the enforcement standpoint.
Senator Howell said:
II don't believe, on the whole,
that there is any more lawlesS-
ness or diSreSpect for law today
than there was in WaShington's
time. AS existence becomes more
complex, there are greater efforts
to violate regulations, because the
rgulationS are greater in number,
and then, too, we have concen-
trated information concerning
crime every day over a vast area
and affecting 100000 Of peo-
pile. All Of this tends to make
it appear we are more lawleSs
than were our progenitors in
Washington'S day."
In somewhat similar vein,,
Senator Vandenberg (R.) OF
Michigan, another dry, to whom
fell the honor today of reading
WaShington'S Farewell Address
in the Senate, expressed his op-
position today to further stirring
things up"
Further inquiry" he said, re-
ferring to the Norris-Wheeler reso-
buttons for searching inVestiga-
ton, would only add to the pres
ent confusion. Let us reorganize
the prohibition service, transfer
enforcement to the Department
OF Justice, and give the new re-
gime chance to succeed. In
VeStigation now will only embar-
raSS enforcement"

LOS ANGELES, Calf, FEB. ~
1N.S0.-Gratified by the vote
Of the governors of the California
Bar Association admitting him to
practice law in this State, Ben
B. Lindsey, former Denver juven-
lie Judge, today mapped a cam.
paign to reinstate himself in the
Colorado bar.
The action In Colorado, Lind
sey's attorneys said, viii be based
on two Supreme Court decisions
handed down prior to the dis
barlner1t proceedings In that State
In which the Supreme Court held
that Lindsey was not q judge
and had not been elected Judge
covering 1926.
Had to Repay Salary
The disbarment proceedings In
December 1929 were based on the
grounds that Lindsey practised
law and received fees in the
Stokes case in 1926, while he was
in office as a probate Judge.
"AS a matter of fact, the Sup
preme Court had already recided
on two prior cases that he was
not a Judge in 1885," Lindsey's
counsel said. 1.-THE court even
went so far as to compel Judge
Lindsey in 1929 to pay to the
widow Of Royal c. Graham tha
salary Lindsey collected in 1926.
1.-THE disbarment, in other
words, was for a cause that did
not exist"
The report on which the Cali
formal board Of governors acted
read as follows: \
Find No IrreguIarity
1.-THE State bars investigation
has failed to disclose that there
was any irregularity in connec.

Apparently there was a disclosure
made by Judge Lindsey to the
board Of bar examiners in refer.
