EKWALL ASSAlS
NEW DEAL POLICY
Republican Club Members
Hear 0regonian Say Die
tatorship Is Here.

President Roosevelt has committed
"the prossest errors in government in
the history Of the United States"
Representative william A. Ekwall. Re-
publican, of oregon, said In address,
ing a group Of prominent members of
the National Capital Republican Club
last night.
Representative Ekwall charged that
the Roosevelt administration has en-
couraged the spread of Communism
and warned that unless We change
the administration and detour from
this debacle Of spending, we are head
ed for the financial abyss"
I'VE need q thorough purging Of
this entire country" the speaker de-
clared. I'VE should 60 out hunting
these Communists just like an old
time Western sheriff went after o
desperate criminal"
Says Dictatorship Exists.
He told his audience 1.-The Presi-
dent has not attempted to set up q
dictatorship-it actually exists. The
New Deal has been publicized as the
advent Of a more abundant life,' but
from its inception 1t has done every
thing possible to do away with all
liberties and freedom"
Ekwall opened his talk on an op-
timistic note by predicting that with
hard work victory for the Republi-
can party in the 1896 elections is
more than bright hope-it is a GER
tainty," but running through the
speech was a note Of criticism di-
rected at the administration. He
charged that American Government
as well as American institutions are
being permeated with insidious
propaganda for the overthrow of our
Government and of our churches and
other institutions"
Striking directly at the President
for his failure to keep a single cam
paign promise" he asserted, under
his regime, our Government has be-
come so top-heavy with bureaucracy,
it is miracle that it can stand on
its small base"
Charges Functions Usurped.
EkWaH SAID congress mas Deen de-
prived of its functions as law-making
body under the administration.
Referring to what he chose to call
the Roosevelt Dictatorship" Ekwall
said mo man is big enough to run
this country alone. Neither Washing
ton, Lincoln, nor Theodore Roosevelt
would ever have had the fortitude to
have tried it. Washington refused the
crown"
After Ekwall's speech, Mrs. James
Griswold Wentz, organizer of the first
Republican Women's Club in New
York and active in the National Capi.
tai Republican Club, took the floor to
plead for drastic action against CON-
munistic teachings.

THE LAST LANDFAIL. BY Desmond

Literature Of the photographed
kind has found significance in many
seemingly little lives In recent years.
Time was when the men who never
made the first page would not have
thought Of writing their life stories
or, at the most, would have utilized the
materials Of which such lives are
made as the framework Of q novel.
There was Yeats-Browns Bengal
Lancer" for example. And Bruce
Lockhart's British Agent" Vincent
Sheehan's Personal History" and Q
host Of others. Good books they
were and with appropriately large
audiences.
And now, out of even q lesser life,
Desmond Malone has contriyed .
sensitive and moving story; the tale
Of o man who wandered widely and
wondered deeply for 26 years. 'The
Last landau" Il beautifully writ
ten books, Its single shortcoming
being the tendency of its author to
brood too long over the seemingly
irrelevant. A long and active Jour-,
ney Mr.. Malone made and . fiae
