intimidation" IN the eyes Of the Ad-
ministration? Would an employer,
warning his employees OF the dan
gers Of imitation, be liable under
such 4 law? Would an employer re-
mindink his employees Of the dan
gers Of Federal squandering and un-
restricted spending Of the peoples
money be guilty Of attempting TO in
fuence such employees through
fear or Intimidation? Il might read
fly so be held by the officials Of the
Administration now in power.
While the Senate disapproves of
private employers "intimidating' vO-
ters on their pay rolls, the bill con-
dones the practice Of Government
agents intimidating men and women
on relief rolls into supporting New
Deal candidates.
For instance, in Pennsylvania
what amounts to a rs per cent as
sessment has been shown to have
been levied against poor people
drawing a meager relief allowance
from WPA. Senator Holt Of West
Virginia disclosed the disgracefuI
details of relief administration in
his State, where WPA officials, by
threat or intimidation, have brazen-
" undertaken to influence the votes
of $4,000 citizens now on relief. This
practice may be continued under
the bill as passed by heSenate. But
a corporation, its ofiieers, its agents
or its employees are made subject
to a fine of $1,000 to $1,000 and inn
prisonment for not more than one
year, or both. If they undertake to
do, in opposition to the Administra-
tion, the very things which WPA is
doing in many States in an attempt
to force Roosevelt's reelection.

The plans and purposes of the Re-
settlement Administration, presided
over by Professor Rexford Tugwell
still remain very much of a mystery.
Senators and Congressman have
been unable to find out what is be-
ing done, or what is being planned
for the future. In his inimitable,
suaVe way Professor Tugwell gives
to inquirers limited amount of in
formation, but conceals much the
public would like to know.
It is known, of course, that one
aim of Professor Tugwell is to re-
duee farm acreage by taking out of
production what have come to be
known as sub-marginal lands. Act
ually, Mr.. Tugwell's aim, as stated
by himself. is to drive 100000 far
mers off the farms and into other
occupations.
In a radio broadcast entitled "Our
Lands in Order" delivered over the
N. B. C. network from Washington.
D. c., August 4, 1888, Mr.. Tugwell
in part said:
More people should not be
brought out into the country with
the expectation that they will earn
living there as farmers. There are
more than enough farmers as it is.
It has been estimated that when
lands now unfit to till are removed !
from cultivation, something around
two million individuals who now
farm will have to be absorbed by !
other occupations.
Toward the end of White House !
press conference recently the Pres
ident made an announcement which
may in time be recognized as the
most important departure in Amer
ican land policy since the Home
stead Act. He said that as fast as
good new lands were brought into
cultivation by drainage or irrigation
projects a corresponding productive
unit of bad or marginal lands will
be taken out of cultivation, and kept
out. That does not mean an attempt
to put and take, acre for acre. One
acre of rich farm land brought in
may mean three or more acres of !
poor farm land retired"
Further evidence of what Profess
sor Tugwell has in mind is cleaned
from an article which appeared in

FAVORED DEMOCRATS FATTEN
ONFUNDS INTENDED FOR RELIEF
HandPicked West Virginia Democrats Get Cream Of
Funds Granted To Relieve Unemployed

Notwithstanding the fact that Con-
gress, in apprOpriating S4,SSO, ,O0O, 900
for relief, intended those funds to be
used for the care of the unemployed,
large part of that money has been
utilized by Democratic administra-
tive relief officials, in collaboration
with State, county and city Demo-
cratic bosses, to fatten the income of
favored Democrats, already employ
ed, and frequently at good salaries.
This is only one phase of politics in
relief" The practice is widespread,
but nowhere has it been so directly
proven as in West Virginia. where
United States Senator Rush D. Holt
Roosevelt Democrat. spilled the
beans.
Following are some of the instan-
ces reported to the Senate by Sena-
tor Holt, showing how relief funds.
instead of going to the needy of his
State, have been diverted into the
pockets of machine-picked Demo-
Gratis who make up the West Virgin
ia relief organization; all of them
were lifted out of other jobs and put
on the WPA pay roll:
Received in Pri-
vate Employment Paid by WPA
$3.50 per month $4,000 per year
40 per week 3,400 per year
1000 per year 5000 per year
5 per day 3,400 per year

WALLINGFORD TO
 TEST TROJANS IN SUNDAY 60
Kern and COnIey With Classy Danbury Combine
 in State Title Quest

Danbury, Oct. 29-( (SpeciaD The Danbury Trojans, with their three former Colgate stars, performing yoeman service in the Matters race for their fourth state football cham pionship, will take on the undefeat- cd Wallingfcrd Walcos Sunday af- ternoon at Lee stadium at two o'clock.
 Paced by Ike Kern, sniftly triple threat back, and his bone-crushing teammates, the All-American "Chuck" Wasicek and Gordon (Deke) Pillsbury, stellar pivot man, the Trojans are planning to take up where they left off last Sunday. On that occasion the Danbury eleven swamped the Norwalk Pros in a 3l- o touchdown avalanche, thus dispos- ing of the second title contender. Wallingford No Pushover
 The Powerful Walcos not only boast a rugged defense backed by a devil-may-care fighting spirit, but Coach Chick Shea of New Britain has equipped his charges with a di- versifled offense. With last years close call fresh in their minds, the Trojans are not expecting an easy assignment Sunday. The Matters won the 1885 meeting by the margin of Red Negri's timely placement field goal late in the struggle.
 Ready to Go
 The Danbury Club, now rated generally as the class of Connecti- cut gridiron competition, will be at top strength for the Wallingford in- vasion. Keith Topping, the Los An- geles Adonis, who was an All-Amer- ican end at Stanford, will be back in uniform, his broken finger mend- ed. ripper" Conley, who has been playing like 8 peevish bulldog in the Trojan line, was bruised up bit in the Norwalk game, but the Brass City lad will be okay by Sunday. About 1000 Wallingford rooters are expected to see Sundays tussle.

Stengel Had Deal, But No Vice Presidents

Mulvey, Son-in-law of Judge Steve McKeever, the president, makes toe much money in the picture business to sacrifice his position or to give more time to baseball. This per hans Is the reason why the Mc- Ke7er interests haven't gone out arpl dug up outside money and taken over the club from the Ebbets half.
 The business manager is John German, who looks like misprint from Esquire. German is a nice fel- low but the only thing he knows about baseball is the names of the National league cities, and some- one probably told him that.
 This gives you a rough idea of how tough 1t is for the Dodger manager to make deals. When he does round up the officials, they don't seem to want to deal.
 Gtengel could have made deal with the Chicago Cubs during the season just closed which would have helped the Dodgers. He could have obtained Chuck Klein and Stephen son, the young catcher, for Fred Farmhouse. But he couldn't find either president. The day of the major league trade deadline he didn't hear from either vice-presi- dent and German called just once.

DRAW DECISION
 KILLS POSSIBLE. LOUIS -GODOY GO
Strong Finish By Leroy Haynes Held South
 American Even
By LESLIE AVERY

Limited Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, Oct. 22.-(UP)-Find- ing an opponent to stand up under the whitening fire of Joe Louis brown fists is becoming an increas- ingly tough job, Promoter Mike Jacobs learned today. His latest importation, Arturo Godoy, of Chile, was held to a draw by Leroy Haynes, Philadelphia negro, last night.
 Haynes was attempting a come back after three lickings by Al Et- tore-the blond Italian rocked to sleep by Louis in four rounds when he squared off in Jacobs red- plush Hippodrome against Godoy.
 The Chilean who knocked out the ancient Louis Angel Firpo, looked like killer by swarming all over Haynes in the earlier rounds, but he lacked the dynamite to put him away. The Philadelphian put on a last round whirlwind finish that earned him a draw.
 Godoy was cut up badly early in the fight, and appeared to be in worse condition than Hayes at the end. The negro smashed Arturo's bloody face in the 10th until the South American was groggy. It ap- peared that if the brawl had gone another round, Haynes would have finished him.
 While Godoy's showing was not bad for a newcomer to the Ameri- can ring, it was disappointing. par ticularly to Jacobs who had hoped to build him up for Louis. He wouldn't have a chance against Joe unless he shows vast improvement. The Chilean's rushing aggressive ness won him the first rounds by a wide margin, although Hayes land- ed pair of good ones, cutting his right cheek in the second and his lip in the third.
 In the fourth Leroy landed a hard straight to the jaw that stop- ped him cold, but he remained on his feet and kept throwing punches until the end of the round.
 If Godoy was a disappointment to Promoter Jacobs, the gate was more so., The 3,501 paid attendance grossed $7,641. Godoy weighed 199 1-2; Haynes, 197 1-2.

POCKET BILLIARD STARS TAKE TO
 TABLES TONIGHT
Best Match of Tournament Looms - ROthchiId Dee feated LaPierre l25-43

Louis Police and Danny Martin, two of the best Waterbury expon- ents of the pocket billiard game that have hailed from Waterbury in decade, clash tonight in the big match of the state championship meet at the Wooster Academy to-. night at 7:3O o'clock. The divalry between these players has been 8 bright spot of local competition for several years.
 sS-Up?
 So keen is the competition be- tween the two, and the feeling as to their respective abilities with the cue, that an easy prediction can be formed around the fact that the billiard addicts will be hanging of the walls when Referee Bob Stone calls for the break shot, of the 125 point game.
 Martin has decision over James Caras, current worlds champion. which he prizes dearly, while Police has been an outstanding player for years whose favorite pool pastime is "25 no count" meaning that he must run 25 balls each time he has shot. Both players have strong supporters and there may be a little wagering on the outcome.
 ROthchiId Won
 Last night, two Hartford rivals had it out on the purple cloth. George Rothchild winning in easy fashion from Bob LaPierre, 125 to 43, high runs of 9, 9 and 19 studding the winners performance while the best LaPierre could do was IT balls. Oddly enough all three losers to tournament games this week were winners last week. Roth- child's safety play was also strong point in his victory.
