ABOARD PRESIDENT HOOV-
ER'S SPECIAL TRAIN, ENROUTE
TO WASHINGTON, Oct. o.
President Hoover, heartened by
the reception accorded his speech
at Indianapolis last night, the
most vigorous announcement of
his campaign, was speeding home
ward today through Ohio and
West Virginia to prepare for the
climax of his fight to retain the
presidency.
Members of the presidential
party expressed themselves today
as enthusiastic over the effect of
Mr.. Hoover's speech, in which he
scathingly criticized Gov. Franklin
D. Roosevelt's economic program,
before a cheering audience of
$4,000.
Mr.. Hoover's address, frequently
interrupted by cries of "go to it,
Herbie!' provided the most direct
attack upon his opponent yet
made by the Republican nominee.
The President said that Cover
nor Roosevelt was guilty of "vio-
lation of the truth; of making
"atrocious charges; of "evasions";;
of a shuttle on the tariff ques-
ton instead of new DEAL
One of the outstanding declara-
tons in the document dealt with
Governor Roosevelt's recent refer
ence to the supreme court and
what he termed Republican con-
troll" over it.
Does that statement tn e
President asked, express his in
tention to attempt to reduce that
tribunal to an instrument of party

JOHNSON MAKES
BITTER ATTACK
ON PRESIDENT
Throws Full Support To
Roosevelt In Address
At San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 29.-lU.P)
-Progressivism, for 20 years a prin-
ciple upon which public careers
were made or crushed, today be-
came a paramount issue of the
presidential campaign in President
Hoover's home state.
United States Senator Hiram
Johnson, throwing his full fighting
power behind the campaign of a
Democratic candidate for the first
time in his long career, pushed the
issue to the fore last night in an
attack upon the administration.
Seldom in California has cam
didate been SO bitterly and sweep
ingly criticized as was Mr.. Hoover
when the white haired warrior OF
the progressive wing of Republi-
canism pleaded for the rank and
file of the party to vote for Frank
lin D. Roosevelt for president.
pilot of a shipwreck' "Au-
thor of false. and fanciful tales of
alarm" -. "As president he has
written himself a failure" :. in
such biting phrases, Senator john
son charged to President Hoover's
administration responsibility for
alleged lack of farm relief, contin-
ued unemployment, existing human
misery, American investment in
foreign securities of doubtful value,
and business stagnation.
johnson accused the President OF
facing both ways" on prohibition,
and praised Roosevelt's stand as
"clean cut" Eviction of the bonus
army from Washington was CLASH
fled as "cruel and cowardly." Tine
senator attacked Reconstruction
Finance Corporation loans to huge
private enterprises and charged the
administration with showing too lit
tie concern for those at the bot
TOM" The moratorium on foreign
debts was criticized.
MIR. Hoover's Des MoineS asser-
ton that at one time the nation
was within two weeks of being
l! forced from the gold standard was
derided by Johnson, as "a fanclful
tale"
Praises Roosevelt
The senator, marshalling into one
address all the opposition to toe
President he had displayed in the
past four years, pointed to no spe-
cific legislative or executive pro-
gram to remedy the national con-
ditions he described. Instead, he
stressed only one principle-the one
on which his entire political life
has been acknowledgements
ism. Governor Roosevelt, he said
is a progressive; President Hoover
is not. A change in the entire phil
osophy of government, rather than
specific points of program, was
demanded.
"One candidate represents the
divine right of big business, or in
ternational bankers and of great
corporations to maintain, operate
and conduct our government. and
the other, the right of all the peo-
pie. high and low, big and little, rich
and poor alike, to share in the
blessing of government, and &c
participate, if bounty be extended
in its benefits" johnson said.
His praise for the Democratic
nominee was as warm as his crl-
ticism of Mr.. Hoover was bitter.
governor Roosevelt speaks in un-
derstanding sympathy the hopes
and the rights of common, ordin-
airy, everyday citizens" the sena-
tor said. "He voices the old, never
changeable progressive policies up
on which this government was
founded.
mo campaign since 1912 has given
me greater Joy than this"
