More Abundant Life-for the
Canadians" He Declares in
Trade Treaty Attack.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, November Performer
President Hoover attacking the
Roosevelt administration for the sec
ond time in four days. charged the

hardship on American farmers.
He delivered this thrust at the
treaty: IT presume it is more Of the
more abundant life-for Canadians"
Mr.. Hoover issued the following
statement yesterday:
The Canadian treaty is just an
other instance of this haSty economic
planning without full consideration of
consequences. There has been no
opportunity given for public debate,
no opportunity for adequate hearing
Of the groups affected.
But this much even now is obvious:
1t means still larger imports of foreign
food. 1t thus means further decreases
In the home market of American agrl-
culture. 1t brings hardship to hun
dreds of thousands of dairy and other
farmers.
Il presume it is more of the more
abundant nfe-for Canadians"
Mr.. Hoover planned to leave Tor

before it by the different sections OF

benefit the entire city as q whole.
Keep your delegates that are in
