INGALLS, IN OHIO
HELP TO HOOVER
Republican Candidate Leads
White for Governor in
Straw Vote.
Continued From First Page.)

holding them both unsatisfactory
White in the past has been considered
a dry, but he started slipping over to
the wet side in the gubernatorial cam
paign two years ago, and soon after
ward was out for resubmiSsion of the
eighteenth amendment and IS now
standing on the Democratic platform
which calls for repeal Generally speak
ing. however, he is not considered 4uite
SO wet as ingalls,, and he may get some
of the dry rural votes that usually are
Republican.
The Republicans have an aggressive
and wet candidate for Senator in At
torney General Gilbert Bettman, who
is seeking to unhorse Senator Bulkley,
Democrat. No one could be wetter
politically than Senator Bulkley. how
ever, and he Is likely to be favored by
the vets over Bettman on that particu-
lar issue. Bettman is an able lawyer,
and has made a good record in office.
In some quarters the fact that he is
against him. The polls show that
Bulkley is running far ahead of Mr..
Bettman, the Dispatch poll giving him
lead of 1901 out Of total straw vote
Of more than 43,0oO, and the Scripps-
Howard poll lead of 4,C9l out of a
total of about $4,000 votes. Bulkley
has big personal following in Ohio,
and undoubtedly will get a large num-
Der of Republican votes He, too is on
the same BALLOT as the presidential and
gubernatorial candidates.
Ohio Delegates in House.
Ohio's delegation in the House today
Is made up of 13 Republicans and 9
Democrats. Because of the reappor-
tionment of House representation among
the States under the 1880 census, Ohio
has two additional House seats this
year to vote for The two additional
Representatives will be elected at
large" The Democrats are confident,
they say, of picking up five or six House
seats now held by Republicans. The
G. o. P. leaders deny that such is the
case. But Democratic swing, if it
effect.
Most of the candidates for the House
are running as vets and are listed either
without recommendation or as unsat-
1sfactory by the Anti-Saloon League
On the Republican side, however. far
more of the House candidates are rec
commended by the league than on the
Democratic. 1t seems rather obvious
that if there is a good sized Democratic
plurality for President in this State it
should carry to victory the two Demo-
cratic candidates for Representative at
large. The Democrats are claiming
good chances of victory in the follow
ing districts now held by Republicans:
Fourth, seventh, eighth, tenth, four
teenth, fifteenth and nineteenth. They
insist they will hold all the seats they
now have.
In the presidential race there is a
growing belief that the dry rural vote
is likely to swing more and more to
President Hoover. and some of the
Democrats privately admit this. The
difficulty, however, SO far as the Re-
publican ticket is concerned, lies in the
fact that the farmers have been fur
ther off the reservation even than the
industrial workers, and may decline to
vote for Hoover, even though they pre-
fer his stand on prohibition to that Of
Roosevelt.

BOSTON, October 26.-Chairnan
Amos L. Taylor Of the Massachusetts,
Republican State Committee today
challenged Gov. Franklin D. Roose-
welt, Democratic presidential nominee.
to make known his tariff program when
he comes to Boston next Monday.
In an open letter to Gov. Roosevelt,
Chairman Taylor said in part
IN order to set the record straight
I wish to ask you, in a spirit of frank
ness and fair play, jus: what your
tariff attitude would be on matters OF
vital Importance to the people of this
State.
Ban State Employment
Are you aware that Massachusetts,
industries employ $4,000 wage earners
and that these wage earnerS support
themselves and their families total
of approximately 1900 900 persons-on
pay checks from industries which can
not operate without tariff protection?
Just what is your attitude toward
our S240,000000 boot and shoe in

wage carriers whose existence QeD6nQS

our s75,000000 clothing industry and
the tens of thousands Of others work.
ing in our other industries
DO you intend to abandon them
also?
Face Destruction.
Apparently you do, for you repeat
edly insist you will lower the present
tariff rates, and presumably these in
dustries face economic destruction.
They are struggling along now, work.
ing their way out Of the worldwide
depression. They have. in many cases,
continued to operate at loss to pro-
tect their employees.
Without tariff they will not be able
to do this and tens Of thousands Of
mouths will be turned over TO charity
fer food.
Tariff is the biggest issue
facing Massachusetts today. and we
are still waiting, after four months Of
patience, for some definite word from
ycu.'

VALUE OF DOLLAR
CONTINUES HIGHER
Purchasing Power Was 22.7
Per Cent Greater in May
Than in 1929.
BY ]. r. BRACKETT,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, July s.-The American
manufacturing wage earner's dollar was
worth 22.7 per cent more in May, 1882,
than in September, 1929, National In
dustrial Conference Board statistics
show.
Moreover, the wage earners rate of
payment in the case of those who are
employed has declined less than prices.
But unemployment has caused aggre-
gate earnings to fall off sharply and
the board computes that the real pur-
chasing power Of the total pay envelope
after giving effect to reduction in en-
ployment was 231 per cent less in May,
1882, than in September, 1929
Purchasing power is measured by the
decline in prices of the things the wage
Garner buys. This decline was 227 per
cent from September, 1929, to May
1882. Thus purchasing power of the
individual dollar was 227 per cent
greater. or 124.8 cents. as compared to
100 cents in 1923 and 992 cents in Sep
tember, 1929. But as the number Of
dollars received was much less, the wage
earner'S total real purchasing power
was considerably smaller.
In September, 1929, taken as the
month the business slump set in, the
industrial wage Garner received on the
average of $3.50 a week. In May,
1882, he received only $1717-40.6 per
cent less.
The rate of payment has fallen less
than the decline of prices, so that the
wage Garner working as many hours
in May as in September, 1929, is better
of Very few are working so many
hours, the decline being 30.5 per cent.
The wage Garner in May received 81
cents an hour on the average, 1919 per
cent less sthan in September, 1929,
Save for a few seasonal gains, the
board says unemployment was aggra-
vated in May by further layoffs. The
number OF those employed in the manu-
featuring industries now stands at about
62.2 per cent of the 1882 level, and
about the same as compared with 1929.
The decline in May was per cent
from April

we're concerned it was more than offset
by discouraging domestic business intel
ligence.
Falling off in sales revealed in the

ed today by Audley A. P. Savage, audi
tor Of the National Savings g. Trust
Co. aggregate deposits in Washington
banks on June 80, 1892 totaled $751;

The tabulation includes every bank

currency on Friday last It was the
first call issued since December 81,
1881, or six months ago.
The call found deposits in the local
banks holding up well. They would
have been quite a little above the De-

Cf this money has been redeposited in

Some confusion is reported by Wash
ington brokers and bankers regarding
the new regulations pertaining to ship
ments Of securities by mail. Accord
ing to the new rules brokers say it is
now necessary to declare the face value,
in which case a registration fee, in
Guiding insurance up to 81 900 is re-
ouired and that an additional tax of
8 cents per 81 600 is paid for what is
termed "drayage'' If instead of a
valuation, the envelope is marked 'un-
known" as to valuation an additional
is cents must be paid above the postage.
Confusion seems to arise from the in
ability to determine the replacement
value of securities in advance. 1t is
stated that the replacement value of
securities cannot be determined in ad-
vance and. therefore, the shipper is in
doubt as to how he can comply with
that part of the regulation which reads:
THAT non-negotiable securities, checks,
drafts and similar paper, may be de-
clared at their replacement value"
