AUSTIN, Tex, october 3.-Attorneys
for Mrs. Miriam A. (Ma) Ferguson.
Democratic gubernatorial nominee Of
Texas, have answered Gov Ross 8. Ster-
lings charge OF fraud in the run-off
primary by counter allegations that
more than 10000 illegal votes were cast
for Sterling.
Also in the answer filed for Mrs.
Ferguson are charges that more than
$500 900 were spent in Sterling's cam
paign for Democratic denomination, In
violation of an act limiting such ex-
penses to $4,000.
The Governor seeks to restrain State
officials from causing Mrs. Ferguson S
name to be placed on the ballot, hlleg-
ing illegal votes aided her in obtaining
majority of approximately 1000 votes
in the run-off primary. Mrs. Fergu-
son was declared nominated at the
State Democratic convention Septem-

The answer also attacked the juris-
diction OF the 126th District Court. in
which Sterling's suit was filed. asserted
that the case was moot and that it
would be impracticable to try 1t, and
claimed that Sterling did not have ade-
uuate interest and there was a mis-
joinder of causes Of action.
On the contention the court lacked
Jurisdiction, the answer asked dismis-
sal Of Sterling's suit. Dismissal was
also sought on the ground that Ster-

In reply to charges by Representa-

night declaring the land banks had

Calling attention to the statement by
Representative Steagall. issued through
the Democratic National Committee,
Mr.. Ballentine said: The Secretary Of
the Treasury. as chairman OF the Fed
eral Farm Loan Board, IS constantly
advised as to the operations OF the
Federal Land Banks There has been
no such policy Of foreclosure. On the
contrary, the Federal Land Banks have

Reports from the II banks show
that as of August 81 existing extern

Foreclosures pending as of that date
totaled 4.728, which was but 3 per cent
OF the total number Of delinquent loans,

the banks to extend or defer action in
the case of all delinquent borrowers
who desire to remain on their farms
and have any chance of working out
their problems with the help of addi-
tional time.
Contrary to Fact.
Representation that additional cap
ital for the Federal Land Banks was
provided for over the opposition Of the
President is contrary to the fact. Ad-
ditional capital for the Federal Land
Banks was initiated as part Of the
Presidents non-partisan program de-
veloped in October of last year and
urged by him upon Congress at the
opening of the last session. In sign
ing the bill making this provision, the
President stated that IL was expected
the measure would "above all, bring

best. but because OF circumstances be-
