CHANGE IN DRY ACT
SEEN IN DECEMBER
Senator Wheeler Says Vol.
stead Law Viii! Be Modified
Early by Congress.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, OF Mon
tana said today he expected early modi-
fication Of the Volstead act II Gov.
Roosevelt is elected, possibly at the
short session Of Congress starting In
December.
There is no question" Wheeler said
at press conference after q Western
trip, that If Gov. Roosevelt is elected
the Volstead act will be modified. I
would not be surprised to see It happen
at the next session. Certainly believe
it will be as soon as the newly-elec
Congress meets.
II think every member Of Congress
realizes what tremendous change of
sentiment has taken place in the coun-
try. States heretofore dry are today
aflame for repeal"
Senator Wheeler reached the Capital
en- route to a conference at national
Democratic headquarters in New York
He also plans to visit Gov. Roosevelt
before returning to campaign In the
West.
Reporting on tour Of the West and
Northwest, Wheeler said he expected
"anti-Hoover sentiment" In that terri
tory to swing it into the column for
Gov. Roosevelt. He was doubtful only
of Colorado, wyoming and Utah. He
believed several Republican Senators in
the Northwest would be reelected, al
though he expects their States to 60
for Roosevelt.

waukee separate from the Republican
national ticket headquarters. They be-
lieve that this indicates Kohler and
his supporters are willing to throw
Hoover overheard in the effort to elect
the State ticket. But 1t is not entirely
clear yet by any means that the regu-
lar Republicans in the State are ready
to go to such lengths.
The State has been flooded with
copies Of the Uncensored News, a
weekly publication dedicated to defeat
ing the La Toilette Progressives. It
has pictured the La Follettes as rob-
bers Of the public till. 1t has backed
up the campaign made by Chapple
against the State University as hot
bed of communism, free love doctrines
and what not. In its last issue the
publisher of Uncensored News says:
The Democrats are saying that vote
for Kohler is vote for Hoover. This
is pure balderdash. Kohler has not said
he favored Hoover But what If he did?
At the general election you may split
your ballot-in other words you may
vote for Kohler and at the same time
vote for Roosevelt If you desire" This
at least gives color to the report that
the Kohlerites are not anxious to hook
up tightly with the Hoover national
ticket.
The Democratic candidate for COVER
nor. Mayor Schmedeman, while he is
highly respected, is not regarded as a
strong candidate. The Progressives say
he lacks force. Duffy. the Democratic
nominee for senator, is looked upon as
a Conservative. He is Catholic, and
this it is said, may make it difficult
for him to win.
Wisconsin decidedly is today in the
doubtful list Of States. Another two or
three weeks may determine the result of
the election. Many observers say that
If the election were held now, the State
would go for Roosevelt. They are not
so sure yet about what it will do on
November 8.

Overflow water from the Rio Grande

The muddy water spread over the

Other levees were battered heavily
but withstood the strain. Indications
were the lower valley would weather

candidate for President, said here yes

change In system whereby the machin-
cry Of production In this country would
be collectively owned by the workers.
Mr.. Thomas appeared under auspices
OF the Economic Equality Club.
How can the workers, employed and
unemployed, get the machinery Of a
political state and use 1t to bring about
equality?" he asked. I'VE can't do 1t
by having an eight-point program to
regulate power as Gov Roosevelt de-
sires or by making railroad receiver
ships cheaper
1T isn't any good for President Hoo
yer to talk about bolstering up a sys-
tenn that doles out money to banks. He
has put more government money into
business than has been put into bust
ness anywhere outside Soviet Russia"

ROOSEvELT:5'PANN,'
WHITE DECLARES.
Kansan Opens Radio Series
With Plea for Reelection
of Hoover in Crisis.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October 4.-Referring
10 Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt at a
pawn" in the presidential election,
with mo genuine following" William
Allen White of Kansas urged voters last
night to carry on the fight for economic
recovery under the leadership OF Her
bert Hoover.
The Emporia editor and author, one
time independent candidate for Gov
arnor of Kansas on an anti-Ku Klux
klan platform and leader in the old
Progressive party, opened series OF
radio broadcastS arranged by the Re-
publican National Committee.
Herbert Hoover is the issue in this
campaign" said Mr. White. Under
his leadership. after all, the battle for
economic recovery must be won.
THE issue therefore is not between
the Democrats and the Republicans.
Certainly the issue is not the election
or defeat of Mr.. Roosevelt. He is a
pawn in the game. Voting for him, his
followers will vent their anger and
despair, not against the President, but
against inexorable economic condi-
tons -
No Genuine Following.
"There is no conviction in the hearts
of the American people that Franklin
Roosevelt will make a good President,
nor a bad one for that matter. He has
no genuine following.
Good times will return to America
only if Americans use their courage and
good sense We must give President
Hoover now, of all times, an expression
of loyalty and faith in his battle for the
new and better order: battle that he
has fought so hard and well.
ITO turn this country over to fair
spoken. amiable, adroit politician and
to mercenary, greedy partisan horde
IN Congress like that which passed the
Garner pork barrel bill through the
House of Representatives and threat
ened the fabric Of our financial safety
by indorsing the bonus bill-to do that
might easily throw America into chaos,
financial. social and political. Ten
years, 20 years, generation, may be
required to recover from the panic OF
1888 which may follow the defeat Of
Herbert Hoover"
Strong and Brave in Crisis.
White said "this is not because Mr..
Hoover is Republican, not because he
Is opposed by the Democrats.
1T is because he is an exceptional
man; a man of the hour, inarticulate If
you will, certainly incapable of any en-
gaging political appeal, man with
many minor faults, but strong and brave
and wise in this crisis: the one man
available for election to the presidency
this year who holds in his head the
wisdom and in his hand the power to
avert the catastrophe that is foreshad-
owed, waiting in the wings to come out
at his passing, and shake the world. !
THE Garner pork barrel bill and the
bonus bill both passed by Democratic
House Of Representatives under Demo-
cratic leadership in spite of the Presi-
dents protest. show the temper Of those
who are taking political leadership in
opposition to the President. They are
making low appeal"

not neglect 30 use, in our struggle
! against lynchings, all the legal
and parliamentary loOpholes at
our disposal. These include: ade-
quate legal defense for victims of
lynch frameups, demanding the
right of Negroes to sit on juries,
making demands upon local, state
and national government bodies,
etc. But all these activities should
be co-ordinated with, and subordi-
mated to the development and Or
ganizatiOn of revolutionary mass
action outside of the bourgeois
courts and Legislative bodies for
the prevention of lynchings.
We must organize giant mass
protest meetings and street dem
constructions against lynchings.
Wherever possible we must or
ganize protest strikes in factories,
among agricultural workers and
share choppers, among students.
At the same time we must or
ganize masses of Negro and
White toilers for open resistance
to lynch mobs. In localities where
lynchings have occurred, it is uu~
duty to seek out the lynchers and,
upon finding them, demand pun
ishment of the murderers and the
instigators-not forgetting among
these instigators the writer's in
the capitalist press who whip up
lynch spirit against Negroes. 49,
Death to the Lynchers
Last, but of extreme import
ance, we must in every locality
form defense corps of the most
militant White and Negro work
ers for the protection of the Ne
groes against lynchers. Not only
must White workers participate
in these defense activities but
they must take the lead in such
defense. We are not revolution
lists unless we accept and put into
practice the idea that it is the spe-
cial class duty of revolutionary
White workers to defend NegrO
workers against lynching and moi
violence, even at the cost of Our
own lives.
As revolutionists we must in ali
our propaganda expose the lynch
ing of Negroes as a weapon Of
the American imperialists in hold
ing under their domination the
black belt of the South. In ou1
fight on lynching, therefore, we
must never fail to raise the de-
mands: Withdrawal of the armed
forces of American imperialism
from the black belt; the right OF
the Negroes in the black belt ia
