suffering occasioned may well exceed
that of q period of actual conflict"
Under these circumstances, common
sense demands a change Of administra-
ton The postmasters cry, Don't
change horses while you are crossing
the stream" That expression was
first uttered by Abraham Lincoln. It
had some applicability to him and to
his times. But unfortunately the man
IN the White House bears no resem-
blance whatever to the Great Emanci-
pator. What We need most of all in
America Is a man whose every heart
beat Is for America, who faces toward
this country, who thinks in Amer-can
terms. The man we have named has
no divided allegiance. He has but one
country, the United States Of America;
but one flag. the Stars and Stripes.
The task before him is Herculean. To
extricate this country from the morass
in which 1t has been involved will re-
quire the highest degree Of statesman
ship. Yet I venture to prophecy that
when the ballots have been counted on
the 9Th day of next November and
Roosevelt's election assured, the sun Of
hope and prosperity will emerge above
the horizon of the dark night through
which we have been passing.

ed as Hoover Accomplishments.
BY the Associated Press.


BALTIMORE, October IL John
Hemphill, Democratic opponent Of Gif-
ford Pinchot in Pennsylvania last gu
bernatorial election, asserted in an ad-
dress last night at rally OF the Concord
Club here, that ~ years of Republic
an rule has brought the greatest Demo-
cratic panic since Alexander Hamilton" "
!. "All Americans want recovery OF
business, but I, for one, don't want an
infiamed propagandized recovery that
dies on its feet on November g." he
said.
Hemphill listed the three major ac-
cornplishments CT the first and last
Hoover administration" as the settle
ment of the Gann-Longworth war, the
settlement of the Gen. Butler-Musso-
lini war and the adroit Hurley burly
campaign against the bonus army"
After levying lengthy attack at the
present administration and the Repub-
lican policies, Hemphill said. "on the
other hand, both Gov. Roosevelt and
our platform are fortnight straight
forward and clear as to prohibition and
all else.
The American people have learned
their lesson" he continued. from these
distressing times and Franklin Roose-
velt is destined to take his place with
Jefferson, jackson, Cleveland and Will
son against which background our op-
ponents have furnished a long line of

DEFENDED BY CURTIS
Vice President Reviews Tariff in
Campaign Address at Bill

BILLINGS, Mont, October 1l.-De-
Tending Republican policies as they
affect the farmer, Vice President Charles
Curtis reviewed the tariff in a campaign
address here last night and said Mon
tana, as farming State, should count
it good business" to have protection on
the crops it grows.
Mr.. Curtis spoke at Statewide rally
OF Republican leaders.
Pointing out Montana exports SILL
100000 worth of goods annually, includ-
ing flour, sugar and wool, Mr.. Curtis
said
These are all good reasons why you
should have Republican protection in
stead of Democratic tariff that will
admit a flood of cheap Australian wool,
cheap foreign sugar or a flood of Cana
dian wheat from just across the bor-
der"
Mr.. Curtis praised President Hoover's
various acts in seeking to correct pres
ent economic conditions and said his
program is restoring better times. The
Presidents action in calling upon the
Federal Land Banks to extend loans
rather than foreclose mortgages and ar
ranging for credit for seed and crop
loans was referred to as indicative Of
the Presidents interest in the welfare
Of the farmers.

Policy Change Favored.

Clearly enough there must be
change of policy. Seven years Hoover
has been in a position of command.
Every time he has uttered word
written a pamphlet, sent telegram or
invited a message, he has succeeded
in breaking the market.
Again I quote the pathetic wall OF
Senator Fess: Every time the admin
istration gives out an optimistic state
ment about business condition the
market Immediately drops" And once
more quote the confession of the Re-
publican party as it stands at the bar
OF public opinion: I'VE meet in a
period of widespread distress and Of
economic depression that has swept the
world. The emergency is equal only

HOOVER ASSA|LED
IN REED SPEECH
Missourian Hits Administra.
tion as Being Responsible
for Present Conditions.

By the Associated Press.
DES MONIES, Iowa, October II.
Speaking from the same speakers
platform upon which President Hoover
recently started his campaign, James A.
Reed of Missouri attacked the admins
tration last night in a political speech
billed as reply to Mr.. Hoover's open
ing address.
He charged that disregard Of the
Sherman antitrust law by Republican
administrations, the Smoot Hawley
tariff, and what he described as Presi-
dent Hoover's scheme to reduce the
price of American farm products" were
responsible for present economic condi-
tions.
The former Democratic Senator
branded the President as an exploiter
of foreign enterprises whose scheme. "
he said, was Ito reduce the prices OF
American farm products" and declared
that by so doing he laid the toundauon
for agricultural bankruptcy.
Attacks Administration.
Departing from his prepared text:
Reed launched an attack upon the last
II years of Republican administration
with a charge that the Sherman anti
trust law went into the discard" at the
start of the Harding administration.
The result, ne declared, was the
springing up Of large "superholdlng
companies" whose stocks were thrown
on the market "for gambling" He
named specifically the insult corpora
tions, but said there were many other
similar projects launched.
When the bubble burst" he said,
"banks began to close. Finally the
effect reached out into the heart of the
country and all business became para
lyzad."
He said the tariff caused falling OH
In foreign trade, holding the Republican
party responsible for this catastrophe
which swept away much Of the wealth
of our country"
Hit at Wheat Price.
He charged that as food admin
1strator Hoover fixed the MAXIMUM
price of wheat at 81 per bushel IN
the United States, while in foreign
countries it was selling at considerably
higher prices. ~,
'.The inevitable consequence" Reed
the farmer. instead Of having accum-
ulated money, had his notes In the
bank and his mortgages in the vaults
of the mortgage company
He branded as "willful perversion OF
the truth" statements he attributed to
the President that Gov. Roosevelt
promised q reduction of farm tariffs. "
He also attacked the President for a
statement made in the latter's speech
here last week in which he said that
at one time the United States was
within two weeks of going of the gold
standard
His statement has done infinite
harm and if credited will send shiver
of fear throughout the financial and
industrial world he declared.
A crowd estimated by Coliseum OIL
cials at 5000 cheered the speaker
throughout and broke into a long cheer
as he finished with q tribute to Gov.
Roosevelt as the man "to extricate this
country from the morass in which it
has been involved"

Hoover Address Recalled.

On october 4, in this hall, the Presi-
dent delivered an address. Its eXordium
was a pathetic account of his tribula-
ticn as an Iowa farm boy. In fearful
numbers he told us of the hardships the
farmer suffered in 1870 His secretary,
Mr.. Mills, tells the farmer that Mr..
Hoover was born on an Iowa farm and
there learned about farm mortgages.

Mining Career Reviewed.

Upon the floor of the Senate Senator
Phelan, who was defending Hoover,
admitted an article by Will Irwin, pub
lished June IS. 1917, and eulogizing
Mr.. Hoover, had been inspired. The
article tells how Hoover left China to
form in London a partnership with an
Englishman. The foundation OF this
firm was in the Chinese coal field. but
they functioned In other quarters Of
the world. It is hard to describe in one
word Hoover,s niche In the mining in
dustry. He describes himself as min
ing engineer, and indeed he Is among
the leaders in that profession. Yet he
was from this time forth an entrepe-
neur, . French word for which we have
no exact equivalent. He laid out min
ing enterprises, found the capital for
them, and managed them.
We do have something that is mighty
near an equivalent for "entrepeneur. "
As the word is translated for me, the
meaning Is promoter"
With reference to Hoover's actiN-
ties In relation to agricultural products
before he came to America, Ernest
Poole, one Of his eulog1sts, relates how.

The second great secret peril which
Mr.. Hoover had-to use his language
"to bear In silence" was that the
taxes from income were likely to be
reduced. Every one read in the press
daily statements that the income tax
would be greatly reduced because Of the
shrinkage Of incomes. Mr. Hoovers
pretense that this was a secret dagger
which he wore in his breast Is simply
ridiculous. Perhaps the extent Of the
falling of was not realized by every
body Indeed, Mr.. Hoover and his
Secretary, were themselves blissfuuy
ignorant. The fact is that in January.
1882, Mr.. Mills advised Congress, that
it would require 1920, ,0O0, 900 to balance
the budget. In February he confessed
it would require s1,24l, 600. 900. In May
he raised the amount to $1,526, 600, 900.

rose rapidly under speculation; that the
consumer paid $4,000, 600 because Of
the increased price Of pork in the
month of March alone, and that the
action was taken against protest Of

wheat he said:
"Unless some superior force inter-
venes, we do not propose the American
consumer to suffer from such rises in
the price of bread and we intend to
hold the price Of wheat at the figure
it has stayed during the entire war"

Canadian Wheat Bought.

In order to prevent wheat going away
from Hoover's restriction early in May.
1919. the Grain Corporation negotiated
for the purchase Of 1000, 900 bushels Of
Canadian wheat for American mills.
There had been by agreement q spe-
cies Of regulation on price control set
up in certain commodities other than
wheat. Immediately upon the signing
Of the armistice all these price con-
trols were released.
But Hoover kept his hand upon the
throat Of the wheat farmer. Thereupon
the entire cabinet united with Secre-
tary Glass and requested that wheat
should be released in order to break the
business stagnation that occurred i'm
mediately after the armistice. A cable
gram was sent by Secretary Glass to
Mr. Hoover making that request. Hoo
yer replied in q telegram in which he
said that the cabinet would have to
take the moral responsibility and that
I'VE shall not only be precipitated in
a financial crisis but we shall betray
the American farmer"

portation Of pork products early In

Four wounded miners, without

rifle battle in which one picket was
killed and four injured, were brought
to Terre Haute hospital.
The picket line, its strength vari-
ously estimated at from 500 to 5000
men, faded into the night as de-
tachment of $50 guardsmen rushed
to the mine at midnight to remove
the injured. One of the worl,men

STOCK MART Hikes
Up FURTHER BEFORE
BEARS TAKE PROFIT
Extreme Gains Of z to s Points
in Many Issues Are About
Cut in Halt

New York, Aug. 4.-(R)-The bull
market in stocks rolled up further i'm
pressive advances in the stock market
Thursday, before the pressure OF
profit-taking became great enough to
bring a substantial setback.
Price averages at the peak OF the
rally indicated an appreciation In
quoted value since the low OF few
weeks ago Of about so per cent, UNI
precedented in recent market history
for a like period Of time, so profit
taking was not surprising. Extreme
gains of z to 6 points In many issues
were about cut in half, as the list
slipped off after the middle OF the
day.
Allied Chemical shot up about 6
points, then lost about half. A 4
point rise carried American Tele-
phone across par, or about 80 points
above the years low, but it slipped
off a couple of points from the top.
u. S. Steel lost most Of an extreme
gain Of more than 2. Standards OF
N. j. rose 2 points to 33h, the high
est price of 1892. Before the after
noon sell-off, miscellaneous issues up
2 or 3 points at the top included
Santa Fe, Union Pacific. Dupont,
Drug, American Water Works, North
American, Case, International Har-
vester, American Can, American To-
bacco 3D." Eastman, Westinghouse
Electric, and others.
The sweeping advance in shares
since early July has surpassed even
the expectations of the bulls. and has
evidently been greatly facilitated by
efforts of the bears to fight the rise.
Many skeptical traders were unable
to foresee anything in the way OF a
sustained rally. What took them Off
guard more than anything else, ap-
parently, was the steady demand for
American stocks which came from
abroad.
The recent phases of the advance
have been helped by growing bullish-
ness of commodities. notably wheat.
A number of miscellaneous staples
have been creeping higher. Thurs
day saw good gains in such items as
rubber, lead. and in the Chicago mar
ket. butter and eggs. Copper was a
little firmer.
