FARMERS PLAN DEMONSTRATION
 FOR HOOVER:
Two Elements in Des
 Moines To-day, One Is Friendly, the Other Is , Surly .

Des Moines, Ia, Oct 4-(UP)- A silhouette of President Herbert Hoover, five stories high and 50 feet wide, smiled down on the busiest corner in Des Moines to- day while the city awaited his homecoming with mingled senti- ment.
 Under that silhouette two pa rades pass to-day-one of striking farmers protesting the way tho chief executive has dealth with the agricultural program, and the other of the presidents own party.
 The banners for the two parades, tell the story of why Des Moines is both gay and gloomy, confident and surly to-day.
 Welcome: Son and Daughter of Iowa" and "Iowa Is Proud of You", the banners for the home coming parade read.
 I've Want action-Not Prom ises" and "The Farm Strike Must Go On" appear in flaming letters on the banners for the protest march.
 The typical hinterland city of 10000 awakened to one of the busiest days of it's history. It was estimated that most of the 150, 900 visitors expected were either here or pouring in by automobile, train, bus and airplane. Hotels were crowded, streets teemed.
 The prospect was for continued overcast skies and chill breezes. after yesterdays drizzly weather, according to Federal Forecaster Charles D. Reed.
 One heard nothing but Hoover" and "What will the farmers do?"
 Milo Reno, organizer and spokes- man for the Farmers Holiday As sociation sponsoring the gathering of farm folk, promised an orderly demonstration. Chief of Police Henry Alber marshaled a force of 140 police and firemen to guard the presidential patty along the four-mile route.
 The tension of the day was two- fold. The coincidence of the farm CTS demonstration and the presi- dents visit accounted for part of it. Natural nervousness that pre- cedes an occasion of state account ed for the rest. A visit so soon after Governor Frank D. Roosevelt added to the political ferment.
 The president and Mrs Hoover were invited tO nave uiHHcr alter the parade with Governor and Mrs Dan W. Turner, at the gubernator- ial mansion. A crowd of $500 will be in the Coliseum when Hoover speaks tonight. Overflow crowds will listen at the Shrine Temple and the plaza of the Statehouse through a loud speaker hookup.
 The 500 "home folk" from West pranch arranged for a. special train to bring them to Des Moines.

Two candidates for represent ative and two more for the posts of senator in the 18th and 18th senatorial districts have been pro- cured and will be formally nom mated this week here by the inde- pendent republican party. This was the information obtained to- day by the Democrat in talk with Mrs Mabel Preusser, chairman of the candidates committee in Wa terbury for the independent g.o.p. organization.
 Mrs Preusser, when talked with, asked that she be allowed to re- frain from mentioning the names of the four candidates for the legis- lative posts in Waterbury to-day until both conventions have been held.
 The town convention, at which the candidates for two represent atives' posts will be selected, will be held here Wednesday evening. At that session two candidates for the House on the independent re- publican ticket will be selected.
 Mrs Preusser stated to-day that the two men who have consented to run for the posts of represent ative in Waterbury are of a very high caliber and are held in high esteem by the dry adherents to the Constitution in this city. She asked to-day to be excused from an- nouncing the names of the pros- pective nominees out of respect to the entire independent republican forces in the city who, she ex- plained, should have the final word in picking the candidates.
 On Friday of this week the inde- pendent republicans of the city will name the candidates for the senate from the 18th and 18th districts. These candidates have already

IAN INSURANCE PLAN

Congressman Augustine Loner- gan, democratic candidate for United States senator, spoke last night in New Britain before the members of the Roosevelt Demo- crat club. He advocated a i've day week for federal employees, un- employment insurance on the en1- ploye employers contrib t n basis and system of old age pen- sion. Present mass production, he said, calls for five-day week in industry.
 He referred to the bill introduce ed by him during the last session of congress which provided for a f1ve-day week for federal employees.
 As to unemployment insurance, he said he favors a method which would provide fund to be raised by contribution between employers and employees and that it the event that such a system could not be worked he would recommend some provision by the government to care for unemployed during periods of business depression.

The big 45 tournament opened last night at St Francis Xavier's hall with a bang, when ten teams got off to flying start before a ca- pacity crowd. The tournament was opened by Father Dillon, chaplain of the Holy Name society who gave a short address. Father Dillon re- ferred to what a good idea it was to get the men together in tour nament like this, keeping interest in the society which is growing larger in membership each year.
 The biggest setback was when Thomas Byrnes opposed his old rival, John Fitzmaurice and gave him a royal trouncing, but John swears when they meet again he will give Byrnes beating; he will never forget. Following is the re- suit of last nights games:
