Farm Policy, Social Secur-
ity Will Be Dealt With
in Two Speeches
FELIX M. WARBURG
ENDORSES CANDIDACY
By LEWIS LARKIN
United Press Staff Correspondent


TOPEKA, Kan, Sept. II. -
(UP).-Work on the main plank'
of Gov. ALT NJ. Landon's farm pro
gram which will be outlined in
speech at Des Moines this week
was punctured last night by {
pledge of support from Felix M
Warburg of New York.
Praise Of the Republican nomi'
nceS defense Of religious liberty
as expressed in recent speeches
and in his record, was contained
in a statement from Warburg.
The New York Jewish leader
pledged to vote for Governor Lam
don according to a paper being
rclaycd to the nominees office by
J. A. Harzfeld, Kansas City, who
has been acting as one of John d.
Nj. Hamilton'S national commit
tee assistants.
Warburg also praised the can
didate'S attitude toward business
Gov. Landon's emphasis in his
recent speeches on economy in
government and efficiency opera
ton of relief while at the same
time stressing the necessity that
no man or woman should starve,
is, in my opinion, the proper ap-
proach to the problems that today
besct us.
ellis emphasis on more employ
ment for labor and fair treatment
of business is the only safe basis
for recovery, for we must have
an expansion of present enter
terprises and new business must
be encouraged.
"For these reasons intend to
vote for Gov. Landon."
Landon polished up final drafts
of the speeches on farm policy,
reciprocal trade agreements and
social security which he will de-
liver this week at Des MONIES,
Minneapolis and Milwaukee.
The sunflower special will carry
the Landon party northward from
Tokeka Tuesday morning, making
brief stops en- route to Des Moines,
where he will speak Tuesday night
to the farmers.
Gov. Landon then will begin on
Thursday a slow swing into Min
nesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, and
back through Iowa and Missouri.
Stopping next Sunday at the farm
Of former Gov. Frank o. Lowden
of Illinois.
The Des Moines speech was gen
orally expected to emphasize IN
more specific terms his sugges-
tions for soil conservation, water
storage and equalization of pro-
tective tariff benefits for the
farm area.
Great interest also has been
created in the Republican noml-
nees's Milwaukee speech. In this
stronghold of progressivism, the
government will present his OBJ
jections to the administration:
social security legislation which he
considers haphazard and unfairly
financed. The Minneapolis speech
will be devoted largely to the re-
ciprocal trade policy which he
contends has permitted heavy i'm,
ports of foreign farm products in
competition with American prod
ducts.

The nations wartime secretary Of
war and a United States senator
charted the course Of the Ameri-

which opened amidst fanfare
when National Commander Ray
Murphy struck the shiny "Eiberty
Bell" mounted on the platform.
Senator Clark said the next
congress would enact legislation
to take profits out of war "but
if we are drawn into conflict we
must not have the inequalities of
sacrifice which marked the last
war"
Baker criticized the nations
that "have thrown over the lib

follow the path of Dictatorship
and said 81 can think of nothing
more useful to the generations
that shall follow than the dedica-

AFRICANS SEATED

GENEVA, Sept. II (UP)-The
18th session of the League of Ma
tions today plunged into the prob
lem of the presence of the Eth
opian delegation, men without a
country" as Italy made it clear
that if the delegation is seated
she will not return to the league
sessions.
A credential committee of nine
was expected to reject the Eth
opian delegation. Meanwhile, Halle
Selassie was flying from London
to Geneva to battle personally for
the recognition of his country.
Not until early today was the
league able to muster a creden-
tials committee in order to pre-
vent an Ethiopian delegation from
attending the opening of the 18th
assembly.
Frantic consultations between
the league secretariat and various
delegates had failed to fill five
places on the committee But a
committee of nine was expected to
effect the sO-called plot to evict
the Philippians.
The Ethiopian delegation ar
rived last night. Prof. CASTOR
Jeze, French adviser to Halle Sc
lassie, was not available for COM
ment.
Meanwhile, President-elect Car
los Saavedra Lamas of Argentina,
was understood to have taken the
initiative in new efforts to Thu
mamie" the Spanish civil war.
The assembly will meet in its
new $1O,OGO,OOO palace on the
shores of Lake Geneva to map its

Landon asserted today "it is the far

New Deal administration has hurt
the farmer more than any one else.
"Its wasteful practices" he con-
tinued, "are in direct contrast with
the good farm efforts of Indiana agri-
culture. The present administration
has piled up an intoleraIble burden of
public debt. It rests largely on the
backs of property owners, farmers

their taxes on to some one else as
