HITS NEW DEAL
Reform Federation Man 0p-
poses Repeal, Security Leg
iSIation, Hog Program.

Henry N. Pringle assistant Superin-
tendent of the International Reform
Federation, has replied to President
Roosevelts letter asking advice of the
clergy. He criticized the President for
repeal, social security legislation, the
hog reduction program and other New
Deal measures.
"AS mayor ex-officio of Washing
ton" Pringle wrote. you know that
your three Commissioners are trying
to govern the city well and police it
properly, but doubtlessly you noticed
that traffic deaths almost doubled in
1894; that liquor shops increased to
1873 (half more than ever before),
and that there were 1914 more intoXi-
cation arrests and l3,809 more felony
cases than in 1882, the last year of
no-license.
Does not this show grave miscal-
culations as to the effects of repeal,
or general disregard of the liquor re-
strictions in party platforms and your
public addresses? The New Deal
seems tolerant of the worst enemies of
our country, or tinidly avoids dis
pleasing them. We regret that your
pen made Washington prize-flghters'
metropolis; you signed the bill, which
crowded it with saloons and boot
leggers; the first case of liquid in
sanity, following repeal. was delivered
at the White House and accepted.
Your words are beneficent, but some
of your acts confuse us, who believe
in toll and frugality and in sobriety
and purity"

St. Marys Loses
Only Cobbler and
Shoes Go SOleless
Special Dispatch to The Star.

LEONARDTOWN, Md, October
7.-Gone but not forgotten is the
fate of Joseph Dobrey, who moved
recently to Baltimore, and in his
absence the country storekeepers
who sell shoes find reason for
great rejoicing.
Dobrey was cobbler, the only
one in st. Marys County.
He decided business would be
better in Baltimore, where his
father formerly operated a shoe
repair store. His departure leaves
the $4,000 residents of the county
faced with the choice of buying
new shoes as soon as their old
ones wear out, or making a trip
to Washington to have them re-
paired-which probably would
cost more.
1t is reported few rugged
individualists will attempt to give
themselves new soles.

Praised by MCMurray

Striking at what he termed mis-
leading and unfavorable propa-
ganda," Floyd I. McMurray, state
superintendent of public instruction,
said last night in a radio address
that the Federal government is in
no way interfering with the curric-
ulum or administration of any
school.
Mr.. McMurray pointed out that
the National Youth Administration
is making it possible for 5000 high
school and college students to con-
tinue their education during the
coming year.
However, he declared, the control
has been turned over to school
people and the situation is highly
satisfactory to Indiana education
leaders. Participation in either the
high school or college aid programs
is entirely voluntary on the part
of any school, he pointed out.

theoriSt.
Nor can he see the similarity
others find in Theodore Roose-
velt'S warning that there would
be a revolution unless wealth were
more equally distributed and
Franklin Roosevelt's plan to do
this by taxation and other means.
THE publisher believes in
l. preservation of the profit
system and the competitive
system, with brides upon the
rapacious business elements and
upon great aggregations OF CAPT
tai. A majority of the people, he
holds, must have a stake in the
country, if Communism or
Fascism is to be avoided. And he
argues that this can be done with
out changing the present system.
The answer to unemployment,
Knox holds, is to increase produc-
ton of goods at lower unit cost,
rather than to restrict production.

Knox, the Dynamo, Has Political
Philosophy Akin to. Herbert Hoovers

This. he argues, would be followed
naturally by absorption OF the I'M
employed. He urges exclusion OF
foreign labor.
Knox's philosophy is akin to
Herbert Hoover's and he has been
called Hoover's choice for the
nomination, a tag that might hurt
him. The former President tried
in vain to induce Col. Knox to be-
come Republican national chair
man, and successfully drafted him
to head the anti-hoarding cam
paign of his Administration.
When Col Knox was 8 his
family moved from Boston to
Grand Rapids. There young Frank
went to school, won prizes for
English themes, was drawn into
fist fights by his cocKinesS, and,
so legend goes, got licking or two.
He disclosed his independence
early in life by dropping the
William Franklin" of his chris
tening and making it plain Frank
Knox"
TIE worked his way through
IL Alma College. taking odd
jobs such as coaching in the gym,
painting advertising signs on
barns and tending gardens for
faculty wives. He played on the
football team, showed proves in
Latin and Greek, won acclaim as
a public speaker.
The Spanish War drew him
from college in his senior year;
landed him in Cuba with T. R.
When he returned he entered
politics, campaigning for Senator
William Alden Smith. His activity
won him a job on Senator Smiths
Grand Rapids Herald, where he
distinguished himself for force
full style that occasionally had to
be toned down.
When he was made city editor
he and his wife-hiS college
sweetheart, Annie Reed-danced
a jig on the steps Of their board
ing house.
Knox later attracted the eye Of
William Randolph Hearst, who
in 1927 made him editor of the
Boston American and in 1928
promoted him to be general man
ager of all Hearst papers. This
connection was broken in 1880. A
few months later, Col. Knox and
the late Theodore Ellis, news
paper mechanical plant expert,
bought the Chicago News.
The colonel's only hobbies are
golf and riding.
He and his wife have no chill
