REEDASKSP|NCHOT
TO EXPLAIN CLAIM
Wants Him to Tell People
How He Will Support
Roosevelt.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Reed, Republican. of Penn.
sylvania, last night challenged Gov
Pinchot of Pennsylvania, his oppo-
nent for the Republican United States
senatorial nomination, to explain his
claim he will support President
Roosevelt's policies if elected.
Reed phrased his challenge in a Sc
ries of five questions involving his at
titude on current legislative problems
and asserted Gov. Pinchot has failed
to answer four of them since they
first were propounded for him on
April 10 by the Senator's State cam
paign manager. former Judge Claude
T. Reno of Allentown.
The new QUESTIONABLE was based on
Pinchot's recent advocacy of the Nc
Leod bill to pay off depositors In
closed banks, a measure being strenu-
ously opposed by President Roosevelt
Senator Reed asked:
81. Would you support President
Roosevelt in his effort to reduce the
allowances of disabled veterans and
the pay of Federal employees, or would
you vote as did to override his veto
of the independent Offices appropri-
alton bill?
%. Would you support President
Roosevelt in his efforts to secure
ratification of the st. Lawrence water
way treaty, in spite Of the injury that
would be done to all Pennsylvania
railroaders and coal miners and to
the port of Philsdelphia, or would
you vote as I did, to defeat that
treaty?
80. Would you support President
Roosevelt in his policy of subjecting
farm products to processing taxes
which have been found to be disas-
trous to Pennsylvania farmers-or
would you vote as I did, against such
taxes?
a. Would you support President
Roosevelt in his request for complete
power over tariff rates-which would
put all Pennsylvania manufacturers
and their workmen in his sole con-
trol-or would you vote as I will,
against any such plan?
IS. How do you square this mes
sage with your support of President
Roosevelt's policies, and why, if you
are sincere, did you not at some time
during your present administration as
Governor, covering almost the entire
period of the depression, ask the
Pennsylvania Legislature to appropri-
ate money to pay of the depoSitors of
State banks which have failed?"
