Mills Will Be TARGET

BIZ Scripps-HoCGrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-Demo-
cratic orators are preparing to turn
their guns on Ogden L. Mills, sec
rotary of the treasury, whose eco
nomic addresses generally are con-
coded to be the most effective ar
guments made by Republicans for
reelection of President Hoover.
The Democrats intend to make
Mills target on two points. They
plan to point out that in his last
two speeches he did not back up
Hoover's DeS Moines statement that
last winter this country was within
two weeks of going of the gold
standard.
Hoover said he was given this SOL
emn warning in February by Mills.
The Democrats also hope to stir
strife aamong New York Republic
ans and followers of the late Theo-
dore Roosevelt by blaming Mills for
Hoover's recall of the order sum-
moning young Theodore Roosevelt

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-Presi-

vigorous attack on Governor Frank

night.
The President will take up the
fight he began at Cleveland, o., last
Saturday night, when for the first
time in his campaign he came di-
rectly to grips with the Democratic
nominee on the major issue.
He believed that his direct criti-

telling him the thing to do is keep
pounding away along those lines.
Hence, while he again viii bring

pummeling Of Governor Roosevelt's
tactics and policies. He may dis
