power policy toward control by private interests for the
indefinite future.
Roosevelt would continue in Washington the power
policies he has fought for in Albany: Sign the Norris Mus
Gle Shoals bill with transmission lines construction; con-
serve water power resources; negotiate a Canadian treaty
fair to power projects; favor public plants necessary to
secure cheap rates; appoint pu~blic-minded commission
'ers; fight for effective laws to control holding companies;
check invasions of federal courts into state affairs; and
help determine the nations future power policy in the
public interest"
Quotations from speeches by Hoover and Roosevelt
are given in parallel column, showing that Hoover has
lauded the power trust, has denied that the huge cap
Iitalization of holding companies has had any Influence
on rates paid by consumers, has boosted the success of
state regulation, and has denounced -in his Muscle
Shoals veto message-the entry of the government into
this industry. Roosevelt has called attention to the Fed
eral Trade Commissions disclosures of power trust crook
edness, has declared that holding company initiation
makes for higher rates to consumers, has shown that
private regulation of private power monopoly has gone
wrong, and has supported the st. Lawrence power prof.
ect of state power development.
An impressive list of university professors and liberals
headed by Prof. Charles A. Beard, and including Prof.
Felix Frankfmter of Harvard law school, and M. Fl.
Hedges, research director for the International Brother
hood of Electrical Workers, signs a preliminary state
ment on the meaning of the power question to the citizen.
1t defines the power issue as that Of securing IAN album
dant supply of cheaper current for industries and bust
ness houses, large and small; substantial reduction in
rates and increased use in homes now served, the extern
ton of electric service to millions of farm, town and
city homes not yet supplied; reduction in cost of munich
pal street lighting, pumping, ETC., thereby relieving the
tax burden; preservation and planned use of the nations
water power resources, co-ordinated with flood control,
navigation and irrigation. This is an issue of enlightened
civilization against primitive living"
Two courses are open to the country, these men de-
clare it may drift in the old channels prepared by the
power company promoters, or it may use public competi-
ton as an effective regulatory force.

FACTS TALK AND MUST FALKLAND
NOTHING ELSE.

Everything connected with all human institutions
throughout the entire world is at present passing through
the throes of a most painful transition period. Disaster
and endless suffering is bound to result from it were we to
ignore this fundamenta characteristic of the age in which
we are living, or were we to attempt to continue to run
the affairs Of the world on the basis of the past. NO
matter what our Individual feelings may be towards the
past, there can be no difference of opinion about the un-
deniable fact that machinery and modern methods OF
doing things have displaced the hand-methods OF bygone
generations.
We are today living in an age in which mechanizatio9n
has developed to such a pronounced degree that not only
every person but everything else is affected by 1t. I'M
proved machinery and improved manufacturing methods
in the matter of doing things have increased in every
industry the total output per man per hour to such an
enormous extent that in innumerable instances one man
with the aid of modern machinery can deliver a total out
put per hour which required many men to produce in the
past. The output of one man is greater today in some
instances than that of a hundred men during the days OF
hand labor. And these are facts which we must face,
whether we like them or not.
The marvellous evolution in industry during the past has

POWER RECORDS OF CAPITALIST NOMINEES
CONTRAST SHARPLY.

Herbert HoOvers power record, on ten test issues af-
fecting public interest versus private interest, is: for the
public, l for private interest, z; silent, 2. Franklin
Roosevelt's record on these test issues is: for the public,

Popular Government League, in a 24-page pamphlet is
sued Sept. II, ~analyzing the positions taken by the two
capitalist candidates upon power matters. By his 81
lence, King accepts the fact that Thomas, Socialist, and
Foster, Communist, represent programs of specialization
which would leave no private profits from the power
industry, ard hence no power problem.
Issues upon which Hoover stands with private monop-
oily as against the public interest, this report shows, are:
Right of the public to operate power plants; publicly
the Federal Water Power Act; fair valuation methods;
success of present regulation of rates; character of ap-
%pointments to power commission posts; general influ-
ence on national power policy. He has been silent as
to whether federal judges should be permitted to over
ride state courts which protect the public against the
power trust. He has been silent as to whether public
commissioners entrusted with rate control shall consider
themselves administrators for the people, or merely
judges between the people and the power companies.
On the one issue of the need for control of holding CON-
panies-such as the insult companies whose collapse has
ruined thousands of nvestors-Hoove has stood with
the public.
Based on this record, King makes a forecast:
Hoover would continue to oppose public plants ana

CROSS WANTS SALES TAX TO BRING RELIEF
THOMAS MAY END SHOOTS LONG SERVICE

Salt Lake City.-A progressive movement headed by Dr Ebert D. Thomas this year Is threatening, as never before, the 30-ycar U. S. senate career of Reed >Smoot, chairman of the senate finance committee.
 Until a few months ago Shoots reelection was considered Q fore gone conclusion, as he had been going back to the senate term after term since his first election in 1902. But Thomas, professor of history and political science at the University of Utah, started cam paigning as the democratic n0mi- nee at the rate of six to eight speeches a day He sounded progressive note. His policies were directed to the younger generation of the Mormon church, to hard pressed farmers and to unemplOy- ed miners.
 And Smooth, now 70, found him. self in his first real fight since 1914 when he won by only 5000 votes. Thomas is 48.
 Both SmOot and Thomas are potent figures in the Mormon church. But the claim is made that the younger element may rebel against the stand-pat ideas of Smooth and switch to Thomas. The charge has been made that Shoot is not really bimetallist, and in this state silver mines are gauges of community prosperity. Thomas, they point out, is friendly to the silver mOnetization plans.
 Thomas was born in Utah, at- tended the University of Utah and University of California. He is an internationally known student of foreign affairs and has written sev. eral books. He is married and has three daughters.

Hartford, Nov "A five point program designed to bring about the speedy economic and social recovery of Connecticut was made public to-day by Governor Wilbur L. Cross. democratic candidate for reelection.
 Summarized, Governor Cross five point program calls for the follow ing:
 1. Conscious, co-ordinated and cooperative reduction of taxes and the cost of government.
 2. Enactment of emergency un- employment and relief legislation to avoid special taxes in towns and cities, and use of revenues from sales tax to provide the financing of this work thereby relieving the bur den on real estate.
 3. establishment of old age pen sions and creation of reserves for unemployment.
 4. Reorganization of state gov- ernment and subdivisions, and a survey of charters of towns and cities designed to promote efficiency by the elimination of waste and duplicated effort.
 6. Revision of the public util- ities laws to empower the Public Utilities Commission to initiate rate hearings and supervise issues of utilities stocks sold to the public.
