TUGWELL STRIKES
ATOBSCURANT|STS
Aims at "TorieS" Who Seek
Cancellation of Social
Insurance.

BY the Associated Press.
Rexford G. Tugwell, administration
agricultural planner, says certain
Tories" w&nt nothing so much as
the cancellation of the social insur-
ance" for the farmer.
These "obscurantists," the Under
secretary of Agriculture told q radio
audience last night, have seized on
the great natural calamity OF a
drought" to discredit the farm pro-
gram. 1t was, Tugwen said, an "in-
decent expression of Joy that thou
sands of farmers have been hurt by
freak weather"
What they resent" Tugwell said
of opponents to the program, "is the
fact that the people of the United
States have organized themselves 70
deal promptly and effectively with
economic problems as they arise. with
out being thrown on the mercy Of
those who formerly profted by de-
moralization and coined chaos into
dividends.
They want nothing so much as
the cancellation of the social insurance
with which we have provided agri-
culture. They want the human beings
who live on the land to be subject
only to the will and convenience of
the SPECTATORS, who thrive on confu-
sion and calamity"
Control Methods Not Permanent.
Tugwell said the production control
methods were adopted with the idea
that they could be modified or aban-
doned as industry attuned itself to an
economy OF abundance"
Tugwell contended that without the
new deals millions to aid agriculture
and drought victims and its measures
to provide against future catastrophies,
I'VE should face famine and political
revolution in the Farm States and
food riots in the cities"
Describing the Farm AdminiStra-
tion's efforts to adjust production and
consumption, Tugwell, whose address
was released through the Democratic
National Committee, said:
''I know that I am speaking for
the Department of Agriculture when
say that it was only with the greatest
reluctance that we temporarily called
a halt to that unchecked, gigantic and
uneconomic abundance which is the
first law of nature, but we felt that
with industrial America controlling
its production in order to maintain
profitable prices with absolute indif-
ference to the fate of the millions who
depend on industry for a livelihood

BERLIN, August Adolf Hitler
intends to be both President and
chancellor of Germany. one Of his
close friends told the Associated Press
today.
This would give Hitler Dictator
ship as absolute as any in the world.
Hitler was busy while Germany
prayed for Won Hindenburg, its be-
loved sturdy oak" He ordered the
cabinet back from vacations for q
session tonight.
The German press was commanded
not to speculate on Won Hindenburg's
successor.
Hindenburg Nears End.
Physicians watching over the Presi-
dent as he lies near death at Neudeck,
East Prussia, reported a slight i'm.
provement last night. But the end
of the S6-year-old leader seemed near.
Despair gripped many conservatives
who had looked upon Hindenburg as
an anchor against extreme Naziism.
If Won Hindenburg dies, the Asso-
ciated Press informant said, Hitler
would call the cabinet together and
read a brief law concentrating al
power to himself as President and
chancellor.
THE whole thing will take but
few minutes" he said, for the cab
met will, Of course, indorse the pro-
posal. 1t will simplify der Fuehrer's
(Hitler's) whole work immensely II
he need not first ask somebody
whether he may do this or that"
An indication Of the reliability OF
this source Is that sunday he re-
vealed Won Hindenhurg's turn for the
worse and was the first man TO tip
of the fact that Hitler was going to
Venice to meet Mussolini.
Under the constitution. Or. Erwin
Bumke,. president of the Supreme
Court, would become acting President
until an election was held to choose
successor.
Stage Set for Hitler.
"All that has been taken care Of"
was the terse statement Of the prop
aganda bureau on the matter of suc-
cession. To many observers this in
dicated the stage has been set for
Hitler
A foreign ONCE official pointed out
''the Hitler government holds emer-
gency powers enabling 1t 10 do almost
anything"
If such are the plans Of Hitler, the
time Is speedily approaching when
Germany's enigma, the Reichswehr,
or regular army. viii have to uncover
itself. II has long been devoted to
Won Hindenburg, Germany's World
War hero.
Men who know the spirit Of the
Reichswehr say it Is possible Hitler
would not have such smooth sailing
If he seated himself in the Hinden-
burg chair.
Ever since 1919, 1t was pointed out,
the Reichswehr has adamantly re-
fused to become the foot ball of poll
tics. The army was the chief instru-
ment Of the President, while police
were the agency of political cabinets

TO SET TRIAL DATE LATEF

Trenton. N. j., Oct. 22.-(P)-Bruno
Richard Hauptmann will be arraigned
Wednesday ct II .. m. (EST) on an
indictment charging him with the
murder Of the Lindbergh baby.
The announcement was made late
Monday by Anthony M. Hauck, Hun
terton county prosecutor, after con-
ference with Justice Thomas w.
Trenchard, Attorney General David r.
Wilentz and Defense Counsel James
M. Fawcett.
Date for the trial Of the German
alien will probably be set at the time
Of the arraignment, Wilentz said. The
attorney general added he did not
know how much time might elapse
after the arraignment before Haupt-
mann faces q jury.
Fawcett, on arrival here for the
conference, said he would prefer to
have the trial delayed five or six
weeks.
Attorney General Wilentz called his
six assistants to q conference at
Trenton, to assign them their tasks in
construction of the case.
With the preparations Of the prose-
cution and defense unfolding. two
possibilities arose:
!. That Hauptmann would be taken
to the former Lindbergh home at
HOpewell, N. j., for re-enactment Of
the kidnapping Of Charles A. Lind
bergh, Jr., and the murder with which
he Is charged.
2. That John Hughes Curtis. the
Norfolk boat builder convicted at
Pennington in 1882 Of obstructing the
search for the Lindbergh kidnapers,
would once more enter the case.
Joseph Lanigan, assistant attorney
general, said the Bronx carpenter
could not be removed from his cell
until the start Of the trial, but that
permission might then be obtained to
take him to the Sourland Mountain
scene.
Although the prosecution disclaimed
any interest In Curtis as q witness,
Lanigan said it was possible the de-
Tense might seek him. During his
trial, the jury considered the pos
sibility that Curtis actually knew the
kidnaSers and was not practicing .
hoax when he took Colonel Charles
A. Lindbergh on sea trips In search
Of his baby, who already was dead.
Identification upon Identification,
meanwhile, were brought forward In
an attempt to show that Hauptmann
was In the Sourland mountain region
about March /, 1882, the time Of the
Lndbergh kidnapping.
c. L. Lightfoot, who lives near New
Brunswick, N. J.. said his 15-year old
son, Richard, identified Hauptmann
as the man who talked to the Light
foot chauffeur on a back road 10
days before the Lindbergh baby was
stolen from his crib.
