ELT FAVORS TARIFF TO PROTECT FARM PRODUCTS
Middle Grid Captain
Digs Graves to
Harden Muscles

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Sept. IA.
Jim Reedy, captain of the Navy
football team, spent his fur
Tough in his home town of
Cleveland, this summer and
used his time there digging
graves.
Jim foresaw a hard winter
ahead and wanted to harden
his muscles for forthcoming
gridiron combats. He asked a
friend in the city government
to give him the hardest job
possible for the few weeks Jim
was to be in Cleveland and the
task of digging graves in a
municipal cemetery was allotted
to him.
He packs a scar over his
right eye where he struck him

grown in America amounted
only to $3.50, 900, 900; and sugar
represented over half of this
figure. The truth was that our
farmers do not produce the
items proposed to be protected
by a tariff; they consume them.
The remedy handed the farmer
was not to raise his selling
price, but to raise his cost of liv-
ing"
Governor Roosevelt reviewed
at some length the alleged failure
of the farm board and its
stabilization operations.
From the present Republican
leadership he said the farmers
can expect only this:
more Republican tariffs.

DOUBLE MOTIVE
CHARGED IN
Staying
0rndorff Enraged at Threats
Of Wife, About to Be Mother,
Brother-in-LaW Ayers

WINCHESTER, Va, Sept. IA.
Expert testimony was called to
the witness stand today by the
State in its prosecution of Ker-
NIT OrndOrff, charged with the
murder of his wife, Frances
Nicholas Orndorff, last De-
cember 90.
L. Jones, an embalmer, who
helped preserve the remains of
the woman after taking the dis
membered parts from their grave,
told of the small portions into
which the body had been divided.
He was followed by DR.. Dutton,
this city, who testified that it
was his belief the body had been
cut into four quarters. Under
cross-examination, Dutton did not
state how he believed the work
was accomplished.
Case NearS End
The State was nearing the end
of its. case, observers believed.
Attorney Aubrey G. Weaver,
chief defense counsel, is reported
to have declared that the defense
would take but few hours" for
its testimony, and the general be-
lief is that the case will reach
the jury of 10 dirt" farmers and
2 carpenters tomorrow.
Court convened an hour earlier
than usual today in resuming the
trial.
Testimony by prosecution wit
neSses thus far has brought out
two alleged motives for the kill.
ing-first, that Orndorff was a
member of a moonshining ring,
and that his wife had threatened
to turn him in to the authori.
ties; and, second, that he was in
censed because she was about to
become a mother.
Wife's Brother AccuSer
Harry Nichols, brother of Mrs.
testified that a quarrel |
arose over these matters at the
Orndorff home about a week be-
fore the woman disappeared and |
that in the course of the alter
cation Orndorff tore most of the
off his wife.
Two State witnesses testified as
to alleged statements by Orndorff |
to the effect that he had killed
his wife.
Deputy Sheriff Robert Dehaven
said Orndorff told him he had
struck her with the butt of a
shotgun when she threatened to
shoot him, after Orndorff had |
asked her to hold a lantern for
him while he was working at
night.

Governor Roosevelt did not men
zion either the equalization fee
or the export debenture plans,
both of which met presidential
VetoeS some years ago, but some
Of his hearers interpreted his six
point plan as contemplating pos
6ibly a combination of some of
the features of each.
Emergency Measure
Others characterized it as the
6o-called voluntary domestic al
lottment" plans favored by leaders
Of the national grange.
In all events, and however
worked out. the Roosevelt pro-
posal is to make the tariff appli-
cable to farm aid in the same
sense that it is now used for
industrial aid. Whatever the
label, the root of it is tariff bene-
fit for agriculture. He continued:
''It seems to me that these
are the essential specifications
of a workable plan. In deter.
mining the details of so vast a
problem, it goes without saying
that many minds must meet
and manv persons must work
together"
Governor Roosevelt proposed
his six-point program as an
emergency measure. In the longer
view, he also proposed reorganl-
cation of the Department of
Agriculture in the working out
Of a policy of national agricul-
tural planning.
Another process of permanent
relief for agriculture, he said,
"can come through national lead
ership in the reduction and more
equitable distribution of taxes"
There is a pressing necessity,
he said, for the refinancing of
farm mortgages lin order to re-
lieve the burden of excessive in
terest charges and the grim
threat of foreclosure"
Federal Credits
If elected, he promised "to
devote all the energy of which I
am capable to the formulation
Of definite projects to relieve
this distress" He added:
specifically, / am prepared
to insist that Federal credit
! be extended to banks, insurance
. or loan companies, or ether
corporations or individuals
which hold farm mortgages,
among their assets.
Lower interest rates and an
extension of principal payments
will save thousands of farms to
their owners"

ord on farm relief.
He pictured Mr.. Hoover as sit
ting at President Coolidges elbow.
counselling him to twice veto the
McNary-Haugen bill without Of
fering any alternative plan for the
relief of hard-hit agriculture. He
said:
THE present Administration
and the two previous admins
tratiOnS, in all of which the
President was an important
member, failed utterly to under
stand the farm problem or to
plan for its relief. They de-
StrOyed the foreign markets for
our expOrtable farm Suplus, be-
ginning with the FOrdney-Mc-
Cumber tariff and ending with
the Grundy tariff"
Raps PaSsivenesS
Governor Roosevelt said he was
amazed" that in the face of
foreign retaliation against these
tariff acts, the Administration
took not one effective step to
alleviate it," He continued:
I'm that attitude the Repub-
lican leadership, from the PreSi-
dent down, shows an incredible
disregard of facts, combined
with stubborn indifference to
the consequence of their folly"
Even many large industrialists
themselves. he declared, have be-
come convinced in the past year
that the chief hope for industrial
and foreign trade
lies in some workable method in
dealing with farm surpluSeS. He
said:
Support for the trial of some
plan to put the tariff into ef-
feet seems to be found every
where except in the Admins
tratiOn in Washington.
"This official lack of SYM
pathy has probably done more
to prevent the development Of
concrete, generally acceptable
plans than any other single
force.
"TO me, it appears the Ad-
miniStratiOn takes a wholly un-
fair attitude. 1t says in sub
stance that since perfect
plan has not been developed,
nothing can be done; and at
the same time takes a posi-
ton wholly inimical to every
effort made during the past IL
years to provide workable means
Of relief. This negative posi-
ton is more than a mere fail
ure to assume leadership. It
is an absolute reputation of
responsibility"
COHESION is NEED
Between Mr.. Coolidge and Mr..
Hoover, he declared, they have
'et proponents of one plan off
against another, "the apparent
object being to cerate situation
n which it is possible for Ad-
leadership to say,
How can we do anything for ag-
'iculture when it is not agreed
within itself as to what it wants
% do?"'
For his own part, he said, he
to compose the con-
'licting elements of these various
plans, to the end that a solution
;an be found which will restore
agriculture to economic equality
With industry through the appli-
cation of tariff benefits"

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. IL Il.
N.SO.-The American Legion aux
iliary has made great strides in
child welfare work during the
past year; it faces an even
greater social program in the
coming year under existing con-
ditionS.
Our program for child welfare
education, legislation and ma
terial relief has grown so tre-
mendously I believe the time has
come when State or Federal gov
ernments should establish agen-
cies or expand present welfare
groups to take better care OF
this problem.
In some States, where child
welfare agencies exist, relief lags
because of inadequate surveys or
inexperienced workers who do not
understand the problem they are
called upon to meet.
Volunteer Workers
Our own organization, COM
posed of volunteer social work
ers, with 5000 units, in every
States, goes out into the homes,
where the father and husband is
i'll, an invalid or unemployed
We find, on the average families
of from five to eight children.
The poorer they are the larger
are the families.
We have found children un-
derfed and even starving. We
have found them ragged and
barefoot. We have found them
without proper shelter or cloth
ing. We have found them i'll,
in need of operations or medical
care.
First, our organization provides
food for the family. Then it
puts clothes on the children. It
cleans up the home, provides
free medical or surgical atten-
ton if that is necessary. It
even has put new furniture into
squalid homes. Then il contacts
local relief agencies, seeks en-
ployment for the jobless wage
earners, and thereafter keeps in
touch with the family in an ef-
fort to rehabilitate it.
