ten politics have about cleaned it
out. If you want to prove this
statement just get in your auto
and canvass the factories in this
town. You will find few in the
food lines still going, but in other
lines hardly able to keep their doors
open, and some entirely closed.
I wish to make three suggestions
to employers in this city which I
believe will put back to work some
of our worthy citizens who have
lived and paid taxes here all their
lives:
Dismiss all married women whose
husbands are working and able to
support them.
Dismiss all persons who live in
small towns around Indianapolis
who come here each day TO work
but do not pay taxes here.
Do not employ persons who come
from other states looking for work
for we have plenty Of unemployed
here who should have first chance.

THIS VETERAN WANTS
SENATOR ROBINSON

BY ]. A. Perkins.
I see James F. Walker is at it
again. He does not like the tone of
my letter in The Times of recent
date. I notice he places judgment
on many others as well. Mr.
Walker, I would suggest you brush
up a little on the history of your
Democratic party as it applies to
veterans legislation.
You say in part:
1.-The veterans will get a square
deal from Roosevelt, Minton and the
Democratic party. Lii Arthur, like
Sunny Jim, will be set aside and
forgotten"
I would like to ask you where you
were when your Senator Frederick
Van Mugs, promising Democrat,
stood when the test came to stand
by the people back home or Wall
Street. He voted to stand behind
the present administration, in no
wise living up to campaign prom
ises.
The Democrats, in majority in
both houses, passed the economy
bill, thus wlping off the map every
pension bill since 1776 to the present
time. At no time has the Demo-
cratic party been our friend. The
Republican party never in its his
tory took a cent from a veterans
pocket. We want Senator Robin
son, not Minton. We old veterans
are not going to be fooled. Minton
is an unknown quantity. We want
Lii Arthur.

BY a Tax Delinquent.
In The Times of Oct. 20 there ap-
peared in the Message Center an
article by T. A. Whalen from which
I quote:
Nov that the depression is over,
and it has been over for several
months, credits have been re-
established"
In the same issue Of The Times,
on the last page, is an article by
Lyle C. Wilson, staff correspondent
at Washington, from which quote:
Emergency unemployment relief
must be stepped up to meet a cold
weather restitution peak and pre-
vent violence in the United States
this winter, responsible officials be-
leved today.
Conviction that violence would
accompany failure to care for the
destitute is based on the opinion
that men would seize food, clothing
and perhaps shelter before they
would starve or succumb to ex-
posture in large numbers. Poten-
tialities of violence are no different
this winter than last.
They expect a substantial upturn
of private employment to help
within a month. BY next autumn
they hope better business will have
cut far into the 100000 or so OF
unemployed persons"
Mr.. Whalen's statement is moth
ing more than pure Propaganda, but
10000, 900 Of US know that Mr.. Will
sons statement is still a cold fact
Yes, Mr. Whalen, the depression
is still with US and will continue
to stay until our factories can open
again and employ the hundreds OF
skilled men in all lines who are
now walking the streets and who
may be sick in bed with nervous
prostration brought on by the de-
preston.

NEW RACKETEER RISES

America TO put gossip on paying basis and

Reporters for the New York World-Tele-
gram recently dug up news Of one Of the
oldest businesses ever invented.
They found that there are in New York
certain firms. some OF which have branches

for you, for a price; rumors about your COM
petitor about yourself, about some individ-
ual-insidious whispers that Will spread
from mouth to mouth all across the country,
untraceable and unStoppable.
They have trained operatives who so about
circulating such rumors Some Of them pose
as house-to-houSe statesmen. and drop their
propaganda in the ears Of housewives. Others
filter about through hotel lobby crowds and
travellers in railroad stations, dropping a
word here and there to help the cause along.
Anybody. apparently, can hire their services.
one large corporation has lost thousands
upon thousands of dollars because rumor-

GAMBLING on college football games is
~ rapidly becoming one of the most popu-
lar diversions Of the sports fraternity. Week
by week the total Wagered on such games rises.
Football is now one of the favorite mediums
of the betting rings-partly, it is said, because
this is the one major sport concerning whose
absolute integrity no one ever has the Slight
est doubt
It comes as bit of a shock, however, to
read in a racing sheet an advertisement of
regular system of handicaping the various COL
lege teams on the basis of past performances
The stunt that has been applied to the
ponies for years is widened to take in the grid
iron. 1t will now be possible to bet intelligently
even if you don't know Notre Dame from the
College of the Pacific.
To find what is basically form of recrea-
ton for college students turned into thing
of form charts and handicappers' blurbs is-to
put it mildly-somewhat dismaying.

MR.. CREELS reputation finally destroys,
4FA Of course, the pretense that the Sinclair
candidacy is Democratic or anything but
menacing to the success of the Roosevelt adj
ministration and to the cause of economic re-
form in state and nation 1t Will be hailed by
those few remaining partisan Democrats who
still are hestating on the score of party loyalty
as release from the slightest obligation to
give even lip-servce to the Sinclair ticket
The plain fact emerges more clearly than
ever that Mr.. Sinclair tried to kidnap the
Democratic party name in California and to
exploit it for a Socialistic program that is
not even Socialism He has not succeeded,
thanks to a reputation by Mr.. CreeI that will
be interpreted rightfully as clarifying the posi-
ton of the administration beyond all doubt
But the significance and effect of Mr..
Creel's reputation are far greater than its
bearing on party politics. For Mr.. Creel speaks
not only as a Democrat and as the foremost
spokesman in California for the administra-
ton. but as a courageous and disinterested
progressive who repeatedly has placed his de-
votion to humane and liberal measures above
party loyalty. His voice is the voice Of reason,
raised in the same cause and for the same
ends as those to which the followers of Mr..
Sinclair are devoted. No thoughtful man
among them can read his letter without being
moved by its sincerity, it logic and its truth.

GEORGE CREEL SPEAKS OUT

GEORGE CREELS letter repudiating Up
~ ton Sinclair and his program cuts the
last frayed tie between Mr.. Sinclair and the
New Deal and shows up his EPIC plan for
what it is. an unsound, unavoidable and I'M
American concoction. designed to appeal to
the credulties Of ignorance and despair, and
immeasurably hurtfm in its effect on true
progressivism.'
Coming from a man known all his life as a
bold and fearless champion Of economic re-
form. and from a Democratic leader who had
gone more than half way in an attempt to
purge the Slnlair program Of its absurGi-ies.
Mr.. Creels letter VIII appeal powerfully to
those followers Of Mr.. Sinclair whose minds
still are open to reason.
No other man in California is so well quail
ihed to judge Sinclair and his program as this
generous and patriotic New Deal leader who
courageOusly went to Mr. Sinclars aid after
his own defeat in the August primary and
labored with him in what he thought was a
successful effort to bring the Sinclair pro-
gram into line with common sense and eco
nomic reality
It just could not be done, as Mr.. CreeI shows
in letter that should be read by every
thoughtful Sinclair follower in the state
4 DNITTING to Mr.. CreeI that the most
L \ glowing and spectacular Of those promises
on which he had won the primary election
were utterly impossible of fulfillment, and
subscribing to a Democratic program from
which they were omitted carefully, Mr. Sin
clair M sooner had left his conference with
Mr.. Creel than he proceeded to reaffirm every
one of them. As Mr.. Creel puts it:
In immediate EPIC what do find on the
back page but your original plan, set forth
exatly as it was in the first edition of 7
Governor Of California The fact that the
contents admit various changes and acknowl-
edge necessity for certain postponements only
aggravates the offense"
If this is not downright political dishon-
esty. it comes dangerously close to it. al
though Mr.. Creel is too charitable to say as
much. Instead he sums Mr.. Sinclair up in
a few words when he writes:
Let me say again that I do not question
your honesty, but you have a most amazing
faculty OF making yourself believe the things
you want to believe. AS an example take your
repeated statement that you can end poverty
in California. and that you won't take more
than one of two Of your four years to do it.
This is optimism carried to the point of de-
lirium. Your dream of an economic island
alien and antagonistic to its immediate en-
vironment and to the rest of the country as
well. is damned by every economist, yet you
persist in it."

vague about her insistence on that.
Keep the clubhead swinging IN

The Long Island player then
spoke up to amplify her contention.

movement is important" said Miss
Hicks, but women will never get

Miss Orcutt expounded more of
her theory.
Il think that in order for women
to get the maximum power they
must develop a long. free swing"
she said. Just let the clubhead
take its natural course, and you'll
