TOPEKA, Kan, Sept. / G.N.SJ.
Governor Alfred M. Landon today
completed the first rough draft
of his major speech on the farm
problem to be delivered on tour
Of the farm belt following his
drought relief conference with
President Roosevelt.
The Republican nominee now
plans his Midwestern trip for the
middle of September. After con-
ferring with the President at Des
Moines, Iowa, Thursday, he prob
ably will rejoin his family for a
few days at their mountain ranch
in the Colorado Rockies near
Estes Park.
After bringing Mrs. Landon and
the children back to Topeka, the
governor will launch his second
campaign trip, with an itinerary
throughout the farm belt.
3 Speeches Outlined
One of the governors advisers
said the first draft of his farm
address was a comprehensive eX-
PLANTATION of the Republican plan
on agricultural relief. He said
the governor went into great de.
tail, so much so that the speech
might be revised, and divided
into several addresses to be de-
livered in different cities on the
trip.
Landon has planned to make
one major speech at st. Paul or
Minneapolis, with a third one at
Milwaukee.
Under such a procedure, the
governor probably will deal with
the outlawed AAA, and his pro
gram for paying farm benefits to
help market huge surplus crops
in one speech, and with restoring
domestic markets to the American
farmer. His opposition to the
Administrators reciprocal trade
treaty policies would be included
in the latter address.
Saves Three States
1t was understood the governor
now plans to eliminate Missouri,
Illinois and Indiana from his next
trip, leaving those States for an
other trip later in the campaign.
1t was said leaders in those States
preferred his personal appearance
