kotas and Montana are serious but
not quite as bad as indicated by re-
ports, according to E. j. Flanagan,
Republican candidate for congress.
who returned this morning from q
trip through those sections.
The reservation rancher left two
weeks ago with several car loads OF
lambs for the st. Paul market. He
was well satisfied with the trip. and
his lambs brought q good price. He
makes similar trip once or twice
year, not only to personally market
what he produces but also to get q
line on business conditions in other
parts of the country. BY no means
the least important item In those
trips is his regular visits to his
mother who is living in Wisconsin on
the farm where Flanagan was raised.
When asked about drouth condi-
lions, Flanagan said: Things are
pretty bad through much OF that
country, of course, but. you know
how it is; such reports are always
exaggerated. Why, according to
what we hear every spring In YAK
ina valley. we lose our entire fruit
crop three times by frost and then
have an unmarketable surplus.
'I was through the same sections
In 1884 and I believe this year the
farms are harder hit than they were
then. But it's too early to know just
how far reaching the damage will be.
Rains could still do q lot OF good
and from what the weather man
promises, they are going to get some
Of that kind Of relief"
"But the thing that gets me-" con-
tinued the man who hopes to repre-
sent his district in congress. "is how
the American people can stand, even
for a moment, an artificial drouth.
and that's all crop restriction pro-
gram is. The drouth cuts down the
yield farmer gets and the admin
istration,s farm policies cut the yield.
Now, I ask you, what's the differ
ence?
"For two years, under the present
administration, we have been DELHI
erately causing shortage at home
and have been shipping into this
country millions of bushels Of corn
and wheat-and now comes another
drouth. If ever a people deserved to
go hungry, we might almost say that
should happen to the American
people. Millions of idle men and
women, and yet every bushel Of Inn
ported grain adds to that vnemploy-
ment."
Flanagan's candidacy started
among his neighbors Of Yakima
county. They demanded farmer rep
resentation in congress and selected
him. The movement became general
throughout this section almost inn
mediately and the candidates sup
porters claim that ninety per cent
of the Yakima county votes will be
for him. They have had a hard time
getting their man to leave his farm
long enough to do the necessary
campaigning. But, when he has q
job to do, Mr.. Flanagan always goes
through with it. Besides, as he mod
estly said, 1--WE arranged things so
I can leave. In fact, I could stay
away indefinitely, for I have some OF
the finest help man could have,
and they know as much about run
ming the ranches as I do. I would
hate to think they couldn't get along
without me-"
Headquarters have been opened In
Yakima and from now until the pri-
mary election vigorous campaign
will be waged but it viii be q clean
fight.

BISHOP COMMENTS
ON ROOSEVELT SLUR
Di.approiv,e..i owes q Language" Used
by Father Coughlin, but
Denies Rebuke.
Ry the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 1S.-Right Rev
Michael J. Gallagher, Bishop Of De-
troit, today expressed disapproval "of
the language" used by Father Charles
z. Coughlin in referring to President
Roosevelt, but emphasized he had not
rebuked his ecclesiastical subordinate.
Referring to the address Father
Coughlin delivered before the Towns
end convention in Cleveland Thursday
night, in which the radio priest cou-
pied the President with the terms
"liar" and "betrayer," Bishop GAL
lagher said:
Father Coughlin is entitled to his
own opinion, but do not approve Of
the language he used in expressing
himself on the President.
He should have had more respect
for the executive. Just because the
President said he would do some
thing and did not does not make him
. liar. There are many things that
could intervene between the time .
man says something In public life and
the time for action, and such matters
should be taken into consideration be-
fore criticizing. I, for one, do not
regard the President as q Communist. I"
The bishop was interviewed shortly
before he sailed for Rome, where he
will have an audience with the pope.
He said he would not discuss Father
Coushlin with the pope unless the
subject was brought up by others.
He said copies of all of Father
Coughlin's speeches are sent to Rome.

Campaign Arguments

TT WILL GET MIGHTY tiresome before
the campaign is over but right now it is
amusing to hear a DemOcrat-tO-the-core
arguing the merits of the new deal with an
equally steadfast and staunch Republican.
Both admit the financial horizon has
cleared and times are immensely improved
but their views diverge sharply from that
point. The Republican argues that all gains
made so far are in spite of the administra-
ton and that they will be lost unless Re-
publican is placed in the White House next
January. The Democrat sees the very roots
of the new prosperity getting their life from
the new deal measures and is certain the
tree will starve on barren rock should Re
publican be elected.
But it is not the hard and fast party
men who decide elections. They do the
shouting while the rank and file Of voters
listen and vote Changes in administrations
are brought about by melting distrust and
discomfort with the party in power and
promising vastly better conditions under a
new regime. The sin party builds its de-
tense around what it can point to as accom-
plishments, always promising far greater
improvements based on the groundwork al
ready laid.
There is nothing unusual about the
coming election in this regard, its greatest
popularity being instead that some Of the
Democrats have developed an affinity for
Republicanism while some who have carried
the COP label now are recognized as new
dealers.
If this trend continues, political guess
ers see chance of new alignment not be-
tween Republicans and Democrats but be-
tween conservatives and progressives, pos
sibly under the old names but with consid-
cradle adjustment in membership. Such
alignments are usual in European countries
and would be welcomed here by many who
prior to the new deal, felt there was no par
ticular issue or principle dividing party lin
es and that such division is essential in a
two party system.
