JOHNSON L|KENS
.LANDON TO HOOVER
Calls on '''Poor People" to
Back Roosevelt for His
Social Views.
NJ the Associated Press.

BUFFALO. N. Y, September "a
Gen. Hugh 8. johnson, former N. r. A.
administrator, in an address prepared
for delivery at q Democratic rally here
tonight. called upon poor people" to
"stick by the only President in history
who ever threw the force Of Govern
ment into the Tight for social Justice
Franklin Roosevelt"
He said the Republican presidential
candidate, Gov. ALI M. Landon.
breaches pure Hooverism" and that
"the Old Guard have Tapped up Lam
don as the whale swallowed Jonah"
He accused Gov. Landon Of changing
his stand on Federal regulation Of in
dustry when the Old Guard got him."
Quoting the Governor as saying in his
Kansas State campaign in 1888 that
regulation Of competition should be
permitted under Government super
vision" and that estate compacts -
are the deadest horses know" john
son said. He now says that State COM
pacts controlling industry are the an
swer."
"The Old Guard says that neither
the Government nor the people can en-
ter their vast field of economic anarchy
to protect the Nation" he declared.
Under the Old Guard doctrine, which
Landon has swallowed whole, we can
not even vote upon the question"
The result, he said, was that "the
only issue Of this campaign Is equal op-
portunity against special privilege.
Thomas Jefferson against Alexander
Hamilton-and that leaves no room
for any Democrat to take q walk. We
may not agree with the whole New
Deal. but its basis is democracy. Its
opposition Is economic autocracy. %"
THE New Deal only says the plain
people shall not be at the mercy Of
every economic wind that blows. 80
For the IS per cent of US who are not
strong enough to ride the economic
whirlwind, it saves US from regimenta-
tion by private economic control Of
those who are stronger.
If enough poor people split away
from Roosevelt they can elect, not

but Landon. When that happens they
had better begin looking for sympathy
in the dictionary. They won't find it
in the old guard. whose idea of social
justice is. and ever has been, the
famous Hoover hardscrapple-'rugged
Observation-Disclosures hog or die and
the devil take the hindmost."
Gen. johnson said Frank Knox
(Col. Frank Knox, Republican candi-
date for Vice President), has repeat
edly said that Hooverism had the
depression licked in 1892 and that all
Roosevelt had to do was just stand
aside and let the old guard medicine
work.
What does this mean? It can
only mean one thing. If Hooverism
was the answer at our worst, then
Hooverism is the answer they are
cooking up for US now.
THAT isn't a guess. That has been
the old guard belief for 140 years.
They say that for the Federal Gov
eminent to try to do anything to
control economic forces is unconsti-
tutional, immoral and obscene. These
forces can throw $4,000. 900 people out
Of jobs, reduce agriculture to medieval
peonage. leave 50.000,000 destitute
but the Hoover old guard says
let it alone"

h the Associated STeSS.
sNEW YORK, September IA con-
sEtutional amendment was urged to-
night by Rev. Charles e. Coughlin, II
necessary, to permit reasonable Fed
efal laws. establishing minimum wages.
Returning to the radio for 26-
broadcast series, the Michigan priest
repeated his plea for living annual
wage" and asserted that both Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Gov. Landon had
disregarded this issue.
LET us realize" he said, that the
Unity of human society cannot be built
upon class warfare. Rather capital
md labor must join hands in this new
crusade to re-establish the christian
concept of life and ere sdicate the er-
fors which prevent the good things
Of our material life from being dis
tributed equitably. 80
Urges Minimum Wage Law.
Both capital and labor must not
only advocate, but seek with their full
powers an amendment to our Con-
stitution. If necessary, by which free.
unbridled competition must submit 70
reasonable Federal laws to the end
that a fair annual wage will be paid
to every American capable of working
and willing to work.
"At the present cost of living. the
sum of 81 BOO per year is a minimum
for a family of five. But which Of
the presidential candidates will adopt
this principle? Unfortunately only
one-the impoverished leader of the
Impoverished Union Party"
The priest said that "if an economic
system, described as cruel and harsh
by the leaders of Christianity, pre-
vents distribution of Gods gifts to our
fellow men, that economic system must
be cashiered as was the imperialism
Of the Caesars, the feudalism Of the
Charlemaignes and the divine right
ef kings of George III.
Production Problem "Solved."
Modern machinery has solved the
problem of production, and will con-
tinue to make advances with the re-
suit "that still less work and fewer
hours Of labor will be required hence
forth to satisfy all human needs" He
added: :"
This being so, and have not been
accosted by any man who has seri-
ously denied its being so, forces us
to the conclusion that the hourly wage
system upheld universally BY modern
capitalism for mass. production &C.
tivity. must be outlawed. -
Christianity recognizes this prob
lem of distribution. Christianity real
lies that the hourly wage system of
modern capitalistic industrialism must
pass out of existence and. in its stead.
there must be substituted living an
Aual wage"

VOTE MACHINE
BIDS TO BE
SOUGHT

ROCKVILLE, Md, July 8.-In-
stallation of automatic voting
machines in the Bethesda and
Wheaton election districts in time
for the November general election
appeared certain today as the
county board authorized the ad-
vertising for bids.
An act of the State legislature
last year vested the county board
with the power to purchase and
install the machines in these dis
tricts.
Although the commissioners
have an offer from the Automatic
Voting Machine Corporation of
jamestown, N. Y, of IS machines
to be paid for $4,000 down and
5000 yearly. This company must
submit a bid with other con-
Germs wishing to compete.
The machines contemplated
will cost 500 and will list nine
parties with 40 names each, with
an additional slot for Constitu-
tional amendment.
Installation Of voting machines
in these two thickly populated
districts has been sought for some
time by local organizations. It is
claimed to be much cheaper than
the ordinary ballot system.

After the Magistrate notified
Federal agents, the investigation
into Thompson'S activities was
launched on the Pacific Coast, re.

and conviction in Los Angeles.
Thompson is said to have been
employed by the japanese govern.
ment since 1888, working in Wash.
ington, Baltimore and the Pacific
Coast. On one occasion, accord.
ing to his sisters story, he was
paid $1,000, and again was given

license plates.
AS a result of her visit, Mrs.
Kraft said, her brother met sew
eral Japanese in Mt. Vernon
Place, Baltimore, the following
day. He then disappeared for
about a month, suddenly reappear
ing with the new automobile.
A year ago this month, she said,
Thompson received $1,000 from a
Japanese representative in Wash.

the money he admitted on the wit
ness stand receiving in California

the Japanese navy who was a Ian.

MOTHER ACT 5
TO STAY SONS
SENTENCE

A mothers determination to
free her 15-year-old son of a
prison stigma" led Mrs. Eva H.
Johnson, Southwest Mark e t
worker, to seek a new trial for the
youngster today.
The boy Is Charles Ivan john
son, 483 E st. S. W., now in the
National Training School for Boys
and sentenced to remain there
until he is 81 years old. Charles
is in the institution because he al
legedly violated one years proba-
ton and then escaped from the
Board of Public Welfare's indus
trial home.
On Probation
In January, 1885, Charlie S
pleaded guilty to a charge of un-
lawful entry when taken before
Judge Fay Bentley in Juvenile
Court. He was accused of entering
a warehouse in the 400 block OF
Maryland Ave. S. w., but because
of his previous good record of be-
havior he was sentenced to one
years probation.
According to police records, he
missed several days of school dur
ing his probation term and as a
result was sent to the industrial
home when Judge Bentley revoked
the probation. From this instltu-
ton he escaped last August, and
was arrested last wednesday when
he was found working as an office
boy in the Agriculture Depart
ment, where he received $14.5O
weekly, of which he gave his
mother SO. Under the law, Judge
Bentley was obliged to commit
him to the training school.
Treatment Scored
Today, the mother, who has
filed a motion for a new trial, said
she did not believe her son had
been given fair treatment" by the
courts, pointing out that he was
of immature years and under
standing, was not advised of his
constitutional rights" when he was
taken before Judge Bentley on the
original charge of unlawful en-
try.
Mrs. johnson said today she
would clear his name entirely II
possible" but will be satisfied if
he is taken out of the training
school and placed back in the in
dustrial home, which isn't a
prison."

BISHOP SHIFTS
HISPLEA TO
GUILTY

ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT
HO U Sc, Va, July S.-LouiS
Bishop, former county sewer in
spector. today received a sus
pended Jail sentence of one
year after he pleaded guilty to q
charge of accepting a $500 gift
Of gratuity" from a contractor
The sentence was handed down by
Judge Walter T. Mccarthy, who
ruled that the offense was a mis-,
demeanor and not a felony.
Contingent on the guilty plea
the prosecution and defense had
agreed mutually to recommend
the sentence passed by Judge Nc
Carthy.
Judge McCarthy's decision was
preceded by a three-hour argu-
ment on the merits of the in.
dictment. The question of mis-
demeanor or a felony hinged on
whether Bishop was an officer
Of the county at the time of the
offenSe. Judge Mccarthy ruled
that Bishop was not an officer,
but an employe of the county.
Frank L. Ball, attorney for
Bishop, asked for the change in
the status of the indictment fol
lowing the conviction of N. C.
Nickles, Pennsylvania contractor,
here yesterday in Circuit Court.
Mr.. Nickles was given five
year suspended sentence on the
charge of having paid the alleged
bride to Bishop after he had
changed his plea from not guilty
to guilty and threw himself on
the mercy of the court.
In event Mr.. Bishop had been
tried on the felony charge which
would have to have been heard
before a jury in circuit court,
Judge Mccarthy had granted
his attorney request to
bring in an outside jury. This
action was deemed necessary by
Attorney Ball after Mr.. Bishop
had entered his plea Of guilty.
Bringing a jury from another jur-
isdiction into this court would, in
effect, give the defendant
change of venue. The jury which
was summoned to first hear the
Nickles case and then the Bishop
case was dismissed by Judge Nc
Carthy here yesterday after the
first defendant had entered his
plea of guilty.
The State charges that Mr..
Nickles paid $500 to Mr.. Bishop
for erroneous reports as to the
depths of bitches being dug by
Mr.. Nickles' contracting firm. Pay
for the work was based on the
depths.
