IOWA TIDE is BELIEVED
TURNED TO REPUBLICANS
Imr mrrovement in Administration s
Position Is Laid to Des Moines
Address of President.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.


OMAHA, Nebr., October 8-In the
great block of farm States from Michi-
gan to South Dakota and from Mime
sofa to Nebraska, the one outstanding
issue in the presidential campaign up
to date is the low price Of grain crops
and live stock. The farmer in Illinois,
like the farmer in Nebraska, Wisconsin,
Iowa and Michigan, is suffering and has
suffered greatly. Business in these
farm States feels the plight Of the
farmer as strongly as the farmer him.
self. Resentment at the conditions on
the farms Is aimed at President Hoover
and the Republican administration. 1t
is on that resentment alone that the
Democrats are counting to win. The
wet and dry question is figuring but
little, so far as can be observed, in the
election campaign, except in the big
cities, Chicago, Detroit, st. Paul, ETC.,
where it may operate somewhat in favor
of the Democrats.
The speech of President Hoover in
Des Moines last Tuesday was the one
great development, from the Republican
point of view. In these Western States,
during the week just closed, Mr..
Hoover's visit to Iowa, it is believed, has
saved that State for the Republicans.
His speech, listened to by thousands
upon thousands of farmers and business
men in all these Western States, has
undoubtedly won back to the RepubE-
can fold many of the voters in all these
States who had strayed to the Demo-
cratic camp. Even the Democrats ad-
NIT this. They are sending former Sem
ator James A. Reed of Missouri, vitriolic
Jim" Reed, to Des Moines this week
to reply to the President and to cap
that, the Roosevelt campaigners ar
ranged to get Senator George w. Norris,
Republican insurgent. who is supporting
the Democratic national ticket, to speak
also in Des Moines October %.
Tide Turns to Roosevelt.
With the exception of Michigan and
Iowa, which today seem to be inclining
these seven States which have visited
either look to be surely Democratic or
are leaning strongly that way. Even in
Michigan and Iowa there Is strong
anti Hoover sentiment.
But the tide in those two States
seems to be on the turn, aided by q
revitalized Republican organization. Il
is probably swinging more and more TO
Hoover in these other States, which
ordinarily are strongly Republican, al
though the evidence at hand is that
the swing must reach far greater pro-
portions than it has up to date If
Hoover is to carry them.
One thing that has interfered with
greater swing to the Republican side
is the failure Of farm prices to increase
since President Hoover made his ad-
dress in Des Moines Wheat, for ex-
ample, is cents lower and corn cents.
