WASHINGTON, Dec. %. (UP)
-Jouett Shouse, president of the
American Liberty League, charged
last night that the Democratic ma
tional committee is using the mails
to solicit political contributions
from federal officials.
He demanded that Postmaster
General James A. Farley, chair
man of the committee, explain
whether he was aware of it and,
if he were, to answer "what about
the law"
Shouse, attacking the New Deal,
accused President Roosevelt in a
radio address of attempting to IN
cite "class against class" and Gre
ate prejudice against the supreme
court in carrying out what he
termed socialstic schemes.
Shouse charged the Democratic
national committee was sending

that for which it has money.
He said that virtually the entire
S,50O,O00 have been absorbed and
that those remaining without en-
ployment are the responsibility
definitely of states, municipalities
and private charities.
AS favorable sign of recovery,
President Roosevelt cited statistics
showing that about 100000 more
persons are working now than in
the spring of 1888 on the basis of
estimates reporting to the depart
