Byron Anderson, Republican State

Senator Smoot will be reelected by
a comfortable majority because CT his
outstanding qualifications for the office,
and because of his stand for protec-

The people of Utah recognize in him
a most able advocate of the policies
which have made this State and Nation
the best place on earth in which to
live"
Mr.. Draper declared Republicans are

MALONE ANSWERED
ON HOOVER SUPPORT
Former I. C. C. Member Tells Law.
yer That Those Who Know Him
Won't Take Him Literally.

The recent announcement of Dudley
Field Malone that he would support
President Hoover for reelection, drew
a reply today from Robert w. Woolley
informing the noted lawyer that those
who know and appreciate your many
likable traits don't always take your
heated declamations literally"
Woolley's letter was released through
the National Progressive League, which
is advocating the election of Gov.
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Director of the mint and a member
of the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion under President Wilson, and q
member of the Democratic National
Campaign Committee in 1916 and
1924, Woolley said in the letter:
Am not justified in assuming that
your reasons for publicly changing your
political affiliations so late in the cam
paign, set forth in your letter to the
President, are given in highly Pick
wickian sense?"

aration from you and from me has been
due not in the least to a difference of
opinion or the Negro question, which
was mercy a pretense, but to the fact
that he was the attorney of the cor
porations their hired representative in
public life, and that therefore he nat
urally and inevitably opposed us in
every way; that he opposed us when it
came to appointments on the bench
just as he opposed legislation that we
asked for in Congress.
II think it is essential. if the bad
effect of these disclosures is to be obvi-
ated, that we should show unmistak
ably how completely loose from us Mr..
Foraker is. If this is not shown affirm
atively there is danger that the people
will not see it and will simply think
that all Republicans are tarred with the
same brush. In other words there Is
need for aggressive action on our part.
My own feeling is that nothing is gained
by temporarizing in matter like this,
or by paying heed to the ridiculous little
politician who thinks it is a good thing
to get harmony between you and crea-
lures of the Foraker stamp.
Il would like to see you in the strong
est and most emphatic way do what l
should do in your place-make fight
openly on the ground that you stood In
the Republican party and before the
people for the triumph over the forces
which were typified by the purchase of
a United States Senator to do the will
of the Standard Oil Co., and that you
had been opposed by him because Of
this fundamental antagonism. and that
for the American people to beat you
was to serve notice that they were will
ing to see man punished because he
declined to yield on such an issue.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"
Footnote: In the correspondence be-
tween Senator Foraker and Archbold
Archbold referred to legislation pending
in Congress and mentioned Enclosures
of checks for $4,000 and Sl4,500. In
one letter Archbold wrote that he was
pleased Senator Foraker had the sltua-
ton well in hand"
Another letter disclosed that Senator
Foraker had received draft Of S50,000
from Archbold to purchase the Ohio
State Journal, but that the draft was
returned when the deal fell through.
Senator Foraker offered as explanation
of the Archbold checks the statement
that at one time he had been special
counsel for Standard Oil.
The further correspondence" men
toned in Col. Roosevelt's telegram Of
September 19 referred to letters between
Senator Foraker and Archbold showing
close relations between the Senator and
Standard Oil, especially in relation to
measures before Congress affecting the
company.

There is every indication Mr.. Hoover
intends to continue his fighting attacks

Speculation regarding his personal
plans includes another swing into the
Middle West next week after returning

While there is some talk Of the Presi-
