WASHINGTON, Sept. 22-The
most authoritative word here is
that President Hoover, in his forth
coming campaign speeches. will shun
new economic medicine and urge
that the recovery program already

The defeat Of Phil La Toilette in
Wisconsin by regular pro-admini-
stration Republicans encouraged the
White House group materially. 1t
wiped out much Of the depressing
effect Of the loss of Maine last
week.
Furthermore, it encouraged the
White House staff to believe that
voters are not necessarily driven to
the left by the depression. To the
Republicans, the most disconcerting
aspect Of the Wisconsin result is that

Those close to Mr.. Hoover realize
they face a contest which they may
lose. They do not believe it has been
lost yet. The feeling has advanced
from one Of despair a week ago to
the fighting stage. There is, how
ever, no frantic clutching for new
and appetizing schemes to throw out
to the voters.
On the farm situation, for in
stance, Mr.. Roosevelt's aids feel,
with one or two exceptions, that the
farmers are weary and distrustful
of further intricate proposals for
dealing with SURPRISES.

NEW STUDY CALLED
ON FREIGHT RATES
!. c. c. Seeks to Determine
Whether Surcharges Shall
Continue.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A new study Of the freight rate situ-
alton was ordered yesterday by the In
terState Commerce Commission.
The purpose Of the inquiry Is to de-
termine whether rate surcharges au-
thorized a year ago shall be continued.
The carriers urging the extension will
present evidence on December % and
opposition statements are to be filed
by January Is.
The case was reopened in response to
petition filed by the American Rail-
way Association asking a continuance
OF the surcharges. which unless other
wise ordered by the commission would
automatically expire ON March 81, 1893.
The application also asked that the
pooling arrangement decreed by the
commission be discontinued and that
each railroad retain the money derived
from the increases. Under the plan
now in effect, the Railroad Credit Cor
lects the money and lends 1t to roads
needing cash to meet interest and other
fixed charges.
The commission in yesterdays order
specified that it will STUDY only the
questions of whether the surcharges
shall be continued as at present: the
length OF time they shall be continued
and whether the plan for disposition Of
the revenue shall be changed.
