PREDICTS DEMOCRATIC
VICTORY LIES IN WEST
Gov. Woodring Tells Women "Sane
Platform" Will Win Presi-
Dental Election.

Gov. Harry H Woodring Of Kan
sas predicted here last night that if
the Democratic party came to the West
with sane platform" it would win
the 1882 presidential election.
Speaking before the National Wom-
ems Democratic Club, the Governor
said the real cause of the depression
is the breakdown of the buying power
of the farmer, who, after the war, was
forced to sell on falling world mar
ket and buy his manufactured articles
from tariff protected industry in this
country.
If the Democratic party will write
into its platform next year the prin-
ciples Of Thomas Jefferson and the
American tradition of initiative and in
dividualism without panacea, the peo-
pie Of the West will place the Demo-
cratic party at the helm Of the ship
Of state" he declared.

GARNER CLAIMS RECORD
FOR FEW MEASURES
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
Speaker Garner proudly claims the
distinction Of having introduced fewer
bills than any man whose House serv-
ice approaches his own.
It is unusual when one remembers
that well over 5000 bills have been
introduced in less than a week.
During four years in the Texas
Legislature I introduced one bill and
that was vetoed" he said today. For
a l0-year period in the House here
don't suppose I introduced one bill a
year"
A lot Of members, however wish they
could get as much action from bills in
troduced as the Speaker does without
introducing them

you all mean it in the right way" he
said, but I'd rather sleep in the park
and go without food than accept char
lty. I've never needed it before and
l don't want to start now"
Davis is staying now at the Gospel
Mission and working for his keep in
the Municipal woodward, hoping that a
loo VIII turn up. He doesn't care how
hard the work might be.
All 1 want" he said, "is a job. I
don't care what it is or how hard it
is-just so it's a job I can live on"

The Lure of
Something for Nothing

Human nature makes all susceptible to those
offers of something free or of enormous returns of
similar something -fornothng solicitations
Professional promoters of questionable type often
times capitalize on this human greed or gubiity
and inveigle into unsound purchases and invest

5000 return on your money, "stolen furs" are
just few OF the recent offerings using this psycho-
logical approach.
Your protection against the something -for-nothng

NAVY STUDIES
BUDGET SLASH

WASHINGTON, Aug. Z. CPl-The
navy department is studying its
prospective needs during the next
fiscal year in the hope that its
budget might be reduced as nearly
as possible TO the $500, 900 900 mark.
Carrying out Pres. Hoover's APP
peal for economy in all government
quarters bec>lse OF the large def
icit in the treasury, Secretary
Adams has instructed the various
bureau, naval stations and fleets TO
shave off all unnecessary expenses.
Cut Personnel
Although work is to 90 for
ward on the ten 10000 ton cruisers,
a 1890 ton aircraft carrier and
eleven destroyers. the navy expects
to reduce its enlisted personnel 10
about $4,000 and TO save money
through the increased purchasing
power OF the dollar. Last year the
enlisted personnel was reduced By
more than 1000 men, while the
marine corps was reduced from 49,
900 to 1880.
Two years ago the navy budget
was about S375, 900 900, and for the
present fiscal year ii was reduced
TO nearly 1895. 900 900, but congress
increased the annual appropriation
to approximately $685.. 900. 900. in
GLIDING Sl0,O0O,0 900 for the first in
stallment on a S30.O00.0 1000 mod
ernization program for the battle
ships Idaho, Wyoming and New
Mexico.
New Destroyers
The othti increases we're for
construction purposes. including
funds for eleven %destroyers. and
expansion Of the aviation branch.
Although naval officials said
they did not know how much the
budget would amount to for the
next fiscal year. they made clear
that sharp reductions we're being
noted all along the line. particular

SAVED
FROM CHAIR
BY STERLING

AUSTIN, Aug. Z. Up Clyde
Thompson and Dave Goodwin
looked forward today TO spending
the remainder Of their lives IN pris-
ON rather than To the executions
which were their prospect yester-
day before Gov. Ross Sterling AK
tended clemency.
shortly Before Death
Communication for Thompson came
approximately eight hours before
the time was set for his death. A
early today. Goodwin had been
sentenced to die next Monday.
Thompson was convicted OF the
Staying OF Lucian Shook. Goodwin
was convicted Of killing Lloyd E.
lott. young Bowie county hog
rancher.
The governor. in committing
Thompson's sentence, said he
granted clemency because Of APP
parent inequality IN the sentences
given Thompson and Thomas Davis,
also convicted in connection with
the Staying Of Shook, but was given
only a 10-year sentence. In addi-
tion, the executive said he believed
Thompson possessed the mentality
OF a child.
Among other reasons the gov
ernor gave for committing Good
wins sentence was the failure or
a defense attorney TO ask for a
change Of venue at Goodwin's trial.
Petitioners for clemency for Good
win claimed a mob was gathered
about the Bowie county courthouse
during the trial and that its pres
ence influenced the jury in impos-
ing the death penalty.
