REVOLUTION TALK
LAID TO WALLACE
DR.. Writ Quotes Secretary
and TugWeII on Trend
in U. S.
By the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press
GARY, Ind. March 31-Dr. William
A, Writ, educator, struck again today
at the unnamed brain -trusters" he
accused of planning a governmental
revolution with a new statement de-
! claring we haven't seen ANYTHING
yet
Quoting from recent books by Sec
retary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace
and his assistant DR.. Rexford Tugwell,
the Gary school superintendent said
1t was evident that one step is lead
ing to another" in the revolution"
Referring to Secretary Wallace's
book, America Must Choose pub
lished in February, 1884, DR.. Writ said ::
On page IA the following statement
is made; To a free people the pain
Of nationalism is actual. As yet. we
have applied in this country only the
barest beginnings of this sort of social
discipline which completely deter
mined nationalism requires.
"Must Change Attitude"
"On pages 81 and % quote the fol-
/ lowing: Our people on the street and
on the soil must change their attitude
concerning the nature VI men and the
nature of human society. They must
develop the capacity to envision a CO.
operative objective an be willing to
pay the price to attain it.
Enduring social transformation
such as our new deal, is impossible
of realization without changed human
hearts,"
Changing our attitude concerning
the nature of man and the nature of
human society is big order" Writ
went on. Secretary Wallace does not
hide the fact that he must pay the
price if we want to attain the CO.
operative objective But the new deal
cannot ge. it's desired social trans
formation without changing human
hearts
Thus, if we fail to change human
hearts we must inevitably fail in our
new deal enterprises. What are the
arts for success with this great eX-
pertinent with the lives of 125 100000
people?
"Regimented Opinion"
But this is not all. Each step
leads to the next STEP I quote from
page 80: Tt would be unfair not to
point out also in concluding that a
Steadfast national allegiance to any
fixed cause, international or inter-
mediate, also requires certain degree
of regimented opinion To lower and
tear down certain tariff walls. and
keep them down. would require on the
part of the general public great soli-
darity of opinion, and great resolution.
The degree of education and of prop
asanda required to make the great
body of American consumers. rural
and urban, stand firmly together for
lower tariffs would have to be rather
intense
"'And yet I do not feel that the
public opinion behind such a program
would have to be straight jacketed as
much as it would have to be under

ROOSEVELT APPALLED,,
TO ASK LAW BARRING
WOOD ON NEW SHIPS

By United Press
HYDE PARK, Sept. Zap
palled oy the Moro Castle disas-
ter, President Roosevelt said to-
day that congress would be asked
for legislation eliminating future
construction of passenger ships OF
wooden interior construction.
There will be definite effort
made for such legislation to
affect ships, big and little, involv-
ing new construction, the Presi-
dent indicated.
Whether the legislation would
ask for modernization of present
vessels, he did not say.
The President feels that light
steel can be used instead of wood
without sacrificing comforts or
beauty of passenger ships, at the
same time providing maximum
of security.
Meanwhile Mr.. Roosevelt was
watching closely the developments
in the investigation of the MORO
Castle fire now under way in
New York.
He made it plain that if culp-
able evidence was uncovered the
department of justice would take
charge.

Violence Flares Here

Determined to curtail activities Of
the Indianapolis Bleaching Com
pany, 900 West Wabash street,
Charles A. Drake, business agent of
the striking textile union here, said
today that he was prepared to pre-
sent to the regional labor board af-
fidavits purporting to prove that
the company was using the banned
stretch out" system.
Charles A. Young, plant manag-
err, denied that workers had been
working extra looms because of the
strike.
Sporadic stoning of mill workers
reporting for the early shift today
was related by police. The picket
line was tense as strikers charged
that company employees were car
rying arms and thus forcing prob
able violence.
Mr.. Young at a meeting yester-
day strongly advised workers not
to carry arms, but asserted that if
they were armed to be careful to
avoid accidents.
The company has opened dining
room for employees, and today Mr..
Young invited the strikers to use
the dining hall if they we're hungry.
The first reported violence along
the picket line 1ared late yesterday
when, police say, strikers stoned mil
workers as they left the plant. A
freight car backed up on a siding
near the plant and trapped worker;
in automobiles in a crowd of striker;
for approximately twenty minutes.

state and municipal budgets were
in debt; credit was being contracted
in all directions: the fear Of def1a-
ton had brought production to a
standstill, and incomes and con-
sumption had disastrously declined.
Orthodox financiers and advisers
were stunned; they could not put
forward a practical solution. The
cure, they pleaded. could only come
from hard work, economy and self
sacrifice"
The President, however, took a
different view which was doubtless
based on g study of past business
cycles.
BY the end Of 1892 the slump.
which had begun in September.
1929, had finally assumed, as all
sIumps have done in the past in
their later stages. a purely none
tary character. viz: that Of cumu-

tons which all prudent bank man
ayers were necessarily pursuing, the
collapse would have undoubtedly
continued despite unlimited hard
work and self-sacrifice.
The problem facing America in
March, 1888, was to convert the
vicious circle of falling prices, credit
contraction and growing stagnation
Of trade into vrtuous circle of
higher prices and expanding indus
try. This problem was first and
foremost monetary, and this was
the problem which the incoming
President had to attack.
It's constituent parts were:
l. To reopen the banks.
2. To stop the public from hoard
ing.
8. To stop cumulative hank credit
defiation.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 12.-Sena-
tor Huey P. Long became a figure
of greatly increased national sig

spectacular victory over the local
political machine in yesterdays pri-
mary.
But the fight was not over. The
old regulars, in control of New
Orleans for several decades, were
believed planning litigation on the
grounds that Longs election COM
missioners counted the vote.
Long brought in the state militia,
seized the office where voters are
registered, scratched some $4,000
alleged illegally registered voters.
His two congressman won renomi-
nation and his candidates for the
supreme court and the public serv-
ice commission also won.
BY strengthening his position at
home, the KingfiSh is free to en-
bark on any ambitious endeavor
which he may choose to attempt
nationally. While he denies any
intention of seeking the presidency,
he has been accused of planning to
seek control of the national gov
eminent.

tary and the bitterness of the pre-
election campaign, it was the most
peaceful election in New Orleans in
many years.

ing from about ten to fifteen times
the gold basis.
Now, the prudent bank manager.
in the course of his duty toward his
depositors, must necessarily call in
loans as collateral values shrink, so
as to keep his accounts well covered.
The unfortunate borrower is then
forced to sell; his forced selling
leads to still lower prices; other
bankers then call in additional
loans, and the process gathers mo-
mentum. Prudent bank manage
merit thus rapidly leads to cumu-
lative industrial collapse. Hence
casual fall in prices, when once it
has begun. normally tends to gather
momentum.

In past trade cycles something, as
it happens, has always occurred TO
prevent the inverted pyramid Of
credit from collapsing completely.
II the present trade cycle, however,
since there were factors present in
America which were absent in past

think Merino visited Mr.. Hoover,
but he did see many officials of the

Curtiss- Wright officials said the
prince of wales invited Merino to
visit him in England.
Urges Hoover Aid
After declaring that Merino had
been responsible for "all our bust
ness in Chile" Webster wrote the
Washington office on March IL.
1881:
1T is up to us to lean over back
ward in selling Merino American
ideas, methods and equipment X X
IF possible we would like to have
you arrange for permission for him
to visit various army and navy sta
tions and have him meet the army

This seems advisable and neces-
sary in order to offset the efforts Of

False Labels Planned
Previously evidence was presented
that the Curtiss Corporation in
April, 1893, planned to place false
labels on equipment meant for
shipment to Peru because the Grace
Line Steamship Company had re-
fused to transport war materials
while Peru and Colombia were in
volved in the Leticia dispute.
General Douglas Macarthur, chief
of staff of the United States army,
was mentioned in a Curtiss COM
pany letter as having apparently
talked up American military equip
ment to the skies" in discussions he
had with the Turkish general staff
While on Visit TO turkey IN 1857.

assistant secretary to President
Roosevelt, and Major James Doc
little, famous speed flier, also were
brought into the hearing today.

Doolittle, who was a member of
the Baker board which investigated
the army air corps recently, was
helpful in selling Curtiss airplanes
in South America, Jack Allard,
president of the Intercontinent
Aviation, Inc, testified.
A letter from the CurtisS- Wright
company's files showed that Mr..
Early was arranging in 1929 to OBJ
tain Curtiss plane from the army
for stunt flight by Doolittle over
New York. Mr.. Early then was a
representative of sound picture
