Bankers Are Given
Some Good Advice

San Francisco (ILNS)- Rudolph S.
Hecht, New Orleans financier, advised
the American Bankers Association
convention here to accept gracefully
some of the moderate evolutionary
changes in the social and economic
order lest the United States be forced
to face some of the upheavals he
witnessed during a survey of Euro
pean conditions.
In advising the executive council
of the A. B. A., representative of
fully 80 per cent of Americas bank
ing business, to adjust themselves to
accept some of the new ideas, he said
he did not mean to infer that the
United States was in real danger of
facing such upheavals as have oc-
Cured, and now are occurring on the
continent.
II am confident that our present
business organizations have within
themselves greater fiexibility and
adaptability to social progress than
have those of Europe and that our
present form of representative de-
mocracy has within itself ample
means for protecting the interests of
the Masses" Hecht said.

JUDGE UPHOLDS
Wisconsin Cleaners and Dy-
ers' Code

The refusal of Judge A. C. Hop
mann in the Dane county, Wisconsin,
circuit court, to suspend the state
fair trade practice standards govern
ing the cleaning and dyeing industry
pending court review is regarded by
the commission administering the
state fair practices codes as a prece-
dent in applications for their review
The application for the injunction
was submitted by |. Lepeles, a Mil
waukee cleaner and dyer, in connec-
tion with an enforcement suit insti-
tuted against him charging violation
of the state code.
Fred NJ Wylie, state fair trade
practice commissioner, told the court
that the cleaning and dyeing indus
try has become Stabilized and adj
iusted to the code standards. He
said that permitting the Milwaukee
cleaner and dyer to disregard them
would make enforcement impossible
in Milwaukee and result in a return of
demoralizing price war, which the
law authorizing fair practice codes
was designed to prevent. A price war,
he pointed out, would not only re-
suit in heavy losses to the cleaning
and dyeing industry, but, in addition,
would mean reduction in wages, in
crease of working hours and possibly
a strike.
Mr.. Wylie gave credit to the in
fiuence of the Milwaukee Cleaning &
Dyeing Employees Union for having
prevented Lepeles' noncompliance
with the code from breaking down
the entire industry, but warned that
neither the state administration nor
the union would be able to prevent a
price war if relief is longer delayed

LANDON'S ATTACK
On Security Act Brings
Sharp Rejoinders

Washington, d. G. (ILNS)-Gover-
nor Landon's attack on the social Sc
curity act, calling it fraud" and a
"cruel hoax" on the workers, has rous-
ed greater stir than any other epi-
sode of the campaign.
First, John G. Winant, former gov
ernor of New Hampshire, and chair
man of the Social Security Board, re-
signed his position so that he might
be free to answer Landon's charges
and battle for the act Winant was
careful to state that he did not con-
slider the act perfect; but he defended
it vigorously, and made sharp coun-
ter attack on Landon for crying Shalt"
on this measure of progress.
Governor Landon replied by saying
that his criticisms were drawn from
a report made by committee of the
Twentieth Century Fun, financed by
Edward A. Filene, of Boston, staunch
supporter of the New Deal in general
and President Roosevelt in particular.
Landon made the document public as
evidence that his attack on the act
was not partisan.
''This report is part of a general
study of the social security act made
by the Twentieth Century Fund" said
Lanton in handing out the pamphlets.
Although it was completed in April
or May, it was held up. The staff
that worked on it includes some of
the most competent men in the coun-
try in this field"
But now comes John B. Andrews,
chairman of the old age security COM
mittee of the Twentieth Century Fund,
and declares that this is not a report
of the committee at all 1t is a report
drawn by a single member of that
committee, and not as yet passed
upon by that committee.
"The committee" says Mr.. Andrews,
{. has postponed reporting on the
adequacy of the present social security
act until after the election. This was
done deliberately to prevent its rec
concentrations from being made a par
tisan political issue in the present
campaign"
Governor Landon has not yet told
how he got possession of the docu-
ment. It criticises the social security
act, but with the idea that the act
should be amended, not replaced by
some totally different plan such as
Governor Landon recommended. One
paragraph of the document says:
In considering the inadequacies
and shortcomings of the act, full credit
should be given to it as a real achieve
ment, and as real foundation on
which a satisfactory structure of old
age security may eventually be
built"

The father, after seeing the

swiftly and mercifully."

COMMUNISM
IN SPEECH

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Sept. 25
GNS0.-"When any upstart
dictator In the United States
succeeds in making this a one
party government, when the
ballot is useless, I shall have the
courage to advocate the use Of
bullets"
In these words the Rev. Charles
e. CoughHn, Detroit radio priest
and head of the National Union
for Social Justice, addressing q
rally here last night, reached the
climax of a vigorous attack on
Communism and an appeal for the
defeat of President Roosevelt.
Father Coughlin emphasized
that the National Union has not
married any political party" but
will support only those candidates
who indorse it's principles. He at
tackled President Roosevelt for
failing to repudiate David Dublin
sky, New York Democratic PreSi-
Dental elector. Dubinsky, the
priest charged, has raised large
sums for Communists in Spain.
Coughlin added:
'T would rather die than to
permit Democratic demagOgueS
to erase from the Constitution Of
the United States these most
glorious words, We, thepeOple.'"
Coughlin made it plain he does
not favor the election of Governor
Alfred M. Landon, the Republican
nominee. He said:
81 have no personal feeling
against Roosevelt, the man, but
we must remove him from Of
flee if we want to save Amer
lea for the people. He has not
the constitutional fOrtitude to
tell the Communists that their
lousy criminal votes are not &C
CeptabIe to him."
