GERMAN CAMPAIGN
HAS ODD FEATURES
Only One Candidate Has Set
Program-Issues and
Outcome CIouded.
BY EDGAR ANSEL MOWRER.

By Gable to The Star.
BERLIN, March with the Ger
man presidential election only a week
off, the issues and outcome become less
and less clear.
Consider the candidates:
President Paul Won Hindenburg, born
conservative, is the candidate of the
Democrats, Liberals, Socialists and
Pacifists.
Adolf Hitler, who calls himself a So
cialist is the choice of the extreme
Fascist Right.
Ernest Thaelmann, Communist can
didate. is wanted for high treason in
Hamburg, and only his standing as
Reichstag deputy saves him from ar
rest.
Theodore Duesterberg, leader of the
Steel Helmet organization, is an out
spoken monarchist. In his great meet
ing last night two of the former
Kaiser's sons, Eitel Friedrich and Oscar,
marched with the Steel Helmets, while
Wilhelms eldest son, the former
crown prince, and his father are ad-
herents Another brother, August
Wilhelm, is a member of Hitler's band
One Has Precise Program.
President Won Hindenburg, the Prot
estant North German, is supported by
the numerous South and the West
German Catholics.
Hitler, Austrian-born Roman Catho-
lie, has the support of a large share of
the North German Protestant clergy.
DueSterberg announces that he op-
poses Socialism in every form. Hitler
declares he is the only true Socialist
and that the Social Democratic and
Communist parties are "Marxists," who
do not understand true Socialism
The only candidate with a precise
program is Adolf Gustav Winter. He
wants only to compel the government to
revalidate the Red pre-War 1,000-mark
notes. Thirty-flve thousand other Ger
mans want the same thing.
The Socialists are voting for Won
Hindenburg to prevent the election Of
Hitler. The Nationalists are urging the
candidacy of Duestenberg to prevent the
election of Won Hindenburg.
Prepared Speech Never Made
No attac on Hitler has been SO bitter
as the one prepared for last night by
the Steel Helmet leader, Maj Franz
Won Stephani. Hitler's movement, said
Maj. Stephan is un-German; his belief
is Roman; his Caesardom is Roman;
his infallibility is Roman; his political
idea is Roman, and the costume and
symbols of his followers are Roman.
Yet his speech, after being circulated,
was never made, apparently because the
Nationalist leader and newspaper mag
nate, Alfred Hugenberg. wants to keep
the door open to negotiate with both
sides should the first balloting in the
election prove undecisive.
The pacif1sts, who are voting for
Won Hindenburg, are becoming alarmed.
Meanwhile, it is the impression OF
competent observers that Hitler is gain
ing ground. His meetings are unques-
tionably the bets staged of all and his
theatricality is proving very attractive,
especially to youths and women. It is
possible that the women's vote will de-
| eide the election.

DESERT UPRISING
LOOMS IN ARABIA
Laconic Report Bares Alarming
Unrest Among Tribes Nominally
Governed by Ibn Saud.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
AMMAN, Syria, March IA Mconic
report, reaching here from the northern
areas of Tebuk and Theima, in Hediaz
contains threat of revolt in the desert
against Ibn Saud, "the Puritan Ruler
of Arabia"
The message, from an unnamed
source, simply said
The tribes are alarmingly restless"
This was interpreted here as mean
ing that some sections of the Bedouins
whose allegiance to Ibn Saud has been
at best only nominal, were preparing
to throw off his yoke altogether.
British officials recently have noticed
signs that have led them to wonder if
the peace Of Ibn Saud" could be main
tanned much longer.
The energy and skill with which rbn
Saud has governed his realm from his
capital of Riyadh, seemed to give the
lie to any forecasts of its failure.
1t has been known for some time
however, that the world economic diff,
ficulties have affected even the wild
nomads of the desert, and that some
outlying tribes were increasingly prone
to turn to their old sport of camel raid
ing and staging blood fueds, which Ibn
Saud has done his best to suppress.

Mr.. Reith believes a probable trick
count is far superior to honor trick
valuation in determining the merits OF
hands. Under systems which use the
honor trick valuation and jump-forcing
bids the hand probably would be bid
as follows:

DIRECT i. s. AID
HELD UNNECESSARY
Clifford Differs With La Fol-

Taken-Hearings End.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A Senate committee yesterday con-
cluded hearings on proposals for di-
rect Federal unemployment relief with
scores of recommendations for Govern
ment aid but with the word of Walter
Clifford, President Hoover's relief direc-
tor, that 1t is not necessary.
Two weeks of hearings before a Man7
ufaoturers Subcommittee were con-
cluded with the submission of a refer
endum taken by the United States
Chamber of Commerce showing local
trade associations throughout the coun-
try voted 2,479 to 1914 against Federal
appropriations.
Pledge All Resources.
Meanwhile, the Red Cross announced
that "all available resources" would be
used by the national organization to
meet four present relief emergencies,
including that of jobless miners.
Commenting on Gifford's assertion
before the committee that the organiza-
ton was devoting 81, 100000 to the pre-
vention of suffering in the coal fields,
Chairman Payne Of the Red Cross said
Yesterday 1t was impossible" to allo-
cate any specific amount to any one
emergency. He listed the current prob
lens of the Red Cross as unemploy-
ment, the Tallahatchie River floods,
needy Indians in the West and
drought relief in five Northwestern
States. He added that 88 Red Cross
CHAPTERS are at work in mining dis
tricts. an increase of 20 in few
weeks.
Many relief workers and welfare ex-
perts testified during the committee
hearings that Federal appropriations
we're necessary to meet TIE relief prob
lem and the movement was supported
by the American Federation of Labor.
Clifford testified, however, that local
communities would be able to handle
the problem He said, though, that he
would favor Federal aid If 1t became
necessary.
Holds Need Is Proved.
As the hearings we're concluded,
Chairman La Toilette, sponsor of one
of the measures under consideration,
took the view. that the need for Fed
eral help lad already been proved by
the testimony.
. THE evidence proved conclusively
the urgent necessity for action on the
part of the Federal Government" La
toilette said, "in affording assistance
to cities, counties and States to meet
their problems.
'"The testimony is overwhelming that
the need is growing and resources are
diminishing and that we need to act If
there is not to be unprecedented suf-

DETROIT, January 9.-The Michi-
gan Manufacturer and Financial Record
today says the Ford Motor Co. will not
bring out its new models until March
and adds, although lacking official con-
firmation, indications are they will in
clude an improved four -eylinder car
and "a V eight.
The four is about ready to go into
volume production, while the eight
awaits approval of final design" the
publication says.
The motor and chassis changes in
the eight are being made from day to
day most of them at the suggestion
OF Henry Ford. The Ford Co. wants a
production volume of 10000 cars and
trucks a day to keep its mammoth
plants busy and therefore intends to
place on the market product in both
the four and eight field that will have
unusually strong buying appeal in both
price and mechanical excellence.
IL Is quite possible the new Ford will
come out, for exhibition purposes at the
time OF the Detroit Automobile Show,
starting January %.
II the industry gets the breaks on

rent shows are expected to produce a
production year of at least 5000, 900

PARIS VIEWS DEBT
TALK AS USELESS
AF TER REICH STAND
FIandin Declares Bruening's
Statement Is Attack on
Versailles Tr- oty.
BY the Associated Press.


PARIS, January 9.-It is useless fol
the nations to attack the reparations
problem at the impending Lausanne
conference If the conference must be
preceded by such declarations as Chan
cellor Bruening's statement that Ger
many no longer can pay, Finance Min
kter Pierre -Etienne Flandin declared
today.
He attacked the Bruening declara-
ton as an attempt against the life OF
the Versailles treaty and the Young
plan, and asserted such efforts at this
time rendered the business depression
insurmountable.
M Flandin expressed his sentiments
to the press after reports had been re-
ceived from London that the German
chancellor, through the British Am
bassador at Berlin, had informed Great
Britain the Reich neither now nor in
the future could meet reparations OBJ
legations.
Political Circles Stirred.
News of DR.. Bruening's action deeply
stirred political circles. In the Cham
Der Of Deputies lobbies, commentator;
linked the chancellor's move with his
recent interview with Adolf Hitler
leader of the German Fascists, in which
he asked Hitler's support TO continue

"It is often said that the crisis, al
least in its financial aspect, is one Of
confidence" M. Flfndin said
ITO complicate with new attempts or

but prevent capital from thawing.
