DEMOCRAT VOTE

Phil, G. 0. P. Rivals Openly
Solicit Enemy Party
for Primary Aid.
BY WILLARD r. SMITH
United Press stan Correspondent

MADISON, Wis, Sept. 19.-Wis-
consin voters enter their primary
election Tuesday with leaders of
both Republican factions counting
upon the aid of Democrats to win.
Governor Philip F. La Toilette
and his campaigners have been So
Letting the Democrat vote openly.
His regular Republican opponents
hope for success if the Democrats
deserts La Toilette and flock into
the rejpvenated state Democratic
party.
The Democratic leaders are
counting heavily upon the support
of the defeated Republican faction
in the November general election.
This situation applies to the state
ticket. La Toilette forces are anti
Hoover and regarded as certain
supporters of Franklin D. Roosevelt
in the national campaign.
IdIty Is heOE SdulAeu
During the three decades of La
Toilette supremacy in Wisconsin,
the Democratic party practically
disintergrated and its votes were
recorded in the columns of the La
Toilette progressive faction of the
Republican party.
Now the Democrats are playing
IN important part in the primaries
for the first time in many years.
With three candidates for Gov
ernor and similar contests for other
state Offices within their party,
Democratic. leaders hope to bring
back the thousands of deserters
who have been voting for La Fol-
lette.
Former Governor Walter ].
Kohler, widely known plumbing
manufacturer, whom La Toilette de-
feated in 1880, has led a comeback
campaign for the regular Republican
ticket.
Editor EnlivenS Campaign
John B. Chapple, young newspa-
per editor and regular candidate
against Senator John j. Blaine of
the La Toilette faction, has en-
livened the campaign with his fight
against what he terms the La
Toilette Racket"
La Toilette defeated Kohler by
$4,000 votes in the 1880 primary.
Should that many, or more, votes
switch to the Democratic party on
Tuesday, the 35-year- old Governor
would face difficult situation.
Realizing this. the Progressives have
campaigned hard to get out a record
vote with the hope that rural areas
would swell his totals and possibly
overcome Democratic reflections.

EnCampmentS Of Civil War
Survivors Soon Will Be
Events of Past.

By NEA SerCice
SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Sept. 19.-
SiXty-seven years after the last shot
was fired in the war between the
states, the thin blue line of surviv-
ing members Of the Grand Army of
the Republic is gathered in Spring
field TO pay its last tribute to Abra-
ham Lincoln, war President and
commanders in chief.
These heroes of yesterday, now
grayed and bent with age, conducted
impressive ceremonies at Lincoln's
tomb in Oak Ridge cemetery as the
feature event of the opening day
of the annual encampment of the
G. A. R. here, which will continue
through Friday.
This may not be their last en-
campment-for the veterans insist
they will hold encampments as long
as they are able to travel-but prob
ably it will be their farewell visit
to Lincoln's grave, since it is very
unlikely that Springfield ever will
be the scene of another of their
meetings.
Among principal speakers on their
program will be Commander in
Chief Samuel P. Town of Philadel-
phia, and Governor Louis l.. En-
merson of Illinois. The latter will
make an address at Lincoln's tomb.
n n
Am Friday, the final day Of the
~ encampment the veterans will
be taken to the tomb of Major Ben
jamin F. Stephenson, founder of
the G. A. r., who is buried about
thirty-f1ve miles from Springfield
A memorial service will be held at
the cemetery.
1t was Major Stephenson, a for
mer surgeon in the Fourteenth I'LL
nois infantry, who founded the
G, A. R. by establishing the first
post at Decatur, ILL.,, April 6, 1866.
Soon a second post was established
in Springfield, and in November of
that year the first national en-
campment was held at Indianapolis.
Though the old veterans are in
no mood to quit, many believe that
this years encampment may be the
LAST for the thin blue line is fading

Il begins tomorrow, Ash

six weeks, ending with Good Fri

SLAIN IN JAPAN
Former Finance Minister Is
Victim of ASSaSSinS.
By United Press

By United Press
TOXIC, Feb. 9. - Junnosuke
Inouye, former finance minister OF
Japan, was wounded fatally today
by two assaSsins who attacked him
as he was walking to political
meeting. One killer was captured.
Shot once in the right chest and
twice elsewhere in the body, Inouye
died at p. m, an hour after being
removed to a hospital.
Inouye'S assailant was identified
as Konuma Tadashi, "a, from Iba-
raki prefecture, who had been living
in Toxic since December. He said
he was disguised with Inouye'S
financial policy.
1nouye, as member of the Min
selto party cabinets under Premiers
Hamaguchi and Wakatsuki, favored
mild policy in China and incurred
hostility of several extreme ma
tional groups in Japan. Once
previously it was reported he had
been threatened with assassination.
Inouye strongly opposed Japan's
going off the gold standard and
prevented it as long as he could.
About ten years ago he was in New
York, as a representative of the
Bank of Japan, and favorably i'm
pressed bankers here with his finan-
cial knowledge.

and Chinese to withdraw fifteen or
twenty miles to prevent clashes.
The British likewise transmitted
to the other diplomats the &C.
ceptance at Shanghai of the pro-
posal for direct discussion between
the Chinese and Japanese on the
Shanghai incident. IT, powers were
to participate in a round table
parley on general problems, in
Guiding Manchuria.
The Japanese replied that their
lines were only few hundred
yards beyond the original defense
positions to which the powers were
asking they withdraw. They held
that the important point was for
the Chinese to withdraw out of
cannon range.
Japan reiterated that Manchuria
was distinct and separate affair
and not connected with the Shang-
hal incident.
Japan's scheme for neutral zones
around half dozen major Chinese
cities would not necessarily suppIant
or overthrow the nine-power treaty,
it was emphasized in government
quarters today.
