CLEVELAND, May 21-Demand for tickets to the Republican Ma tional Convention, opening here June g, is described as three times as great as can be satisfied.
 T have been on the National Committee for 28 years, and on the Arrangements Committee since 1912, and I can't recall any greater de- mand," Ralph E. Williams declares.
 Williams says he has an idea" the party's national convention will last five days. It opens Tuesday. And he says it probably will finish Saturday."
 Agreement Takes Time
 The convention could be shorter if the party had candidate for renomination, Williams said. "As it is, we must decide on platform which suits the majority. and name a candidate for President and a candidate for Vice-President &C., cording to the will of the majority.
 That takes longer than it would take if candidate sought re-nom- ination." (

PARTISANSHIP RESTS
 LIGHTLY"

What he expects out of the cam paign personally he does not dis close. It is a logical surmise he might be receptive to Republican Cabinet post as Secretary of Agri- culture-in event the Republicans win in November. He supported the Democratic Party in 1928 and 1882 but says his partisanship rests lightly" upon him.
 Senator Vandenberg of Michigan tried early this session to make an issue of the trade program by list ing increases in agricultural i'm ports he said it brought about in the face of the AAA curtailment program. His charges had less ap- parent effect than his subsequent New Deal criticisms. Democratic Senators merely replied that the imports remained small in com parison with American production.
 A basic theory back of the pro- gram is that the United States has become creditor nation and must permit sales of foreign foods in this country so foreign debtors

Rush for Contention Tickets
 S,uamps Republican Officials

The same reason is partly re- sponsible for the unusual interest in this years convention, Williams explained. He added that this is year when more people are talk ing an. active interest in politics.
 Interest Widespread
 People in every section of the country" he said, "are wanting to take part in the Republican con- vention. There is as much interest and as great demand for tickets from the Far West and South as from the closer States"
 The opening day will be devoted principally to electing temporary convention officials, with the key note speech in the evening by Sen- ator Frederick Steiwer of Oregon.
 The main business on Wednes- day will be permanent organiza- tion. Williams said it was probable the platform would be Thursdays chief business, with the nomination for President coming on Friday and the nomination for Vice-Presi- dent on Saturday

TOWNSENDITES ARE CHARGED
 WITH FRAUD
Investigating Committee Counsel Asserts Im-
 proper Use of Mail

WASHINGTON, May 21.-An as- sertion, immediately denied, that the Townsend organization used the mails to defraud, was made before the Investigating committee today
 James Sullivan, committee coun- sel declared $11, ,490 was raised for the Congressional fund by appeal to the clubs and sent through the mails from "Townsendgrams" Dr. Townsend denied knowledge of the appeal until after it was out, and added he did not believe the mails were used to defraud." Townsend explained he had little to do with raising money as his province was the philosophical and economic as poets of the movement
 Sullivan said prior to the Town sendgram appeal, the organization raised $23,490 to defray expenses of seven men brought to Washing ton in January of last year to draft the McGoarty Bill and work for its passage.

'DR. CRUEN|NC'S PARTY DELAYED
 AT FAIRBANKS
Chamber Luncheon to Be Held Tomorrow with Hope
 Officials May Arrive

Report to the Pacific Alaska Air ways airport office here this after noon stated the plane carrying Dr. Ernest H. Gruening, Gov John w. Troy and party has been delayed at Fairbanks and probably would not get away for Juneau until g o'clock in the morning. The party had previously been scheduled to leave at o'clock this afternoon from Fairbanks. The Fairbanks section was visited by a thunder storm this morning and indictment weather may be the cause for the delay.
 Chamber of Commerce officials, who already have postponed the Chamber luncheon one day in the hope of having Dr. Gruening as a speaker, decided the weekly lunch con would be held tomorrow noon in the Terminal Cafe as sched- uled, and it is hoped that plans in Fairbanks may yet be changed to allow the plane to get away in time to reach Juneau at noon so the officials can attend the lunch con. Due to Saturday being a half holiday, it would be inadvisable to postpone the regular meeting of the Chamber further, it was decided.

CAMP AICN ISSUE MAY TIE AROUND NEW TRADE PACT
George N. Peek Starts Abuse of Administra-
 tion's Agreements
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, May 21. A major Republican campaign issue may grow out of George N. Peeks new attack on the Administrations reciprocal trade treaty program, made just as Secretary of State Hull announced the signing of a new pact with France.
 Peek formerly was foreign trade adviser to President Roosevelt and head of the export-import banks set up in connection with the treaty program, and for time was stroke oar in AAA. In conflict on several sides, he took himself and his ideas out of the Administration last win ter.
 He thinks the trade negotiations are being badly operated-and on a false theory. He now is airing his dislike of the Hull policy in a series of magazine articles.
