ROOSEVELT PLANS
HIT BY HAMILTON
G. 0. P. Chairman Says Pol
iCies Undermine Indi-
ViduaI Initiative.

CINCINNATI, August % (P).-
Chairman John D. M. Hamilton Of
the Republican National Committee
said tonight that President Roosevelt
sought to substitute paternalism for
individual initiative" and asked him
to tell the people what he intends to
do" regarding a third term.
The concensus in Washington was
that "he is seeking a third term -
Hamilton said
State G. O. P. Drive Opened.
The President thereby relegated
those whom the Government sup
posedly serves to the position Of mere
pawns in the hands of few directing
agencies in Washington" he told Re-
publicans at any outing which for
mally launched the Ohio Fall Republi-
can campaign.
AS a government becomes more
paternalistic, individual initiative be-
comes correspondingly less and un-
Wonted interference with economic af-
fairs of nation ultimately brings
economic ruin" Hamilton said.
Once We surrender our initiative
to government it becomes greater than
the individual and government is no
longer governmental is political slav-
cry
Refers to Congress.
Referring to the recently adjourned
Congress, the Republican chairman
asserted:
1T was a session that cannot be
judged through its accomplishments
but rather in giving Considera-
ton to what has been averted =
feel confident that it will be consid-
cred one of the most important ses-
sions in our history.
He said Mr.. Roosevelt has indicated
that his concern is not primarily with
the solution of economic or social
problems but rather under their guise
to secure for his sole use the reins Of
government. Let him announce
that he does not seek to perpetuate
himself in office. His often-expressed
delight in the breaking of precedent
will probably find its final gratifca-
tlon in seeking third term
The central issue is the issue of
Republican representative Government
against Rooseveltian personal Govern
ment." Hamilton declared.

law enacted quietly three years
ago has allied the G-men with State
and local police in pursuit Of criminals
wanted for murder, burglary and other
major crimes not of themselves listed
as Federal violations.
A report made public yesterday by
the Federal Bureau of Investigation
shows that the little-known law, the
Federal fugitive felon act, has enabled
the bureau to capture III persons who
had fed across State lines to escape
prosecution.
The act makes it Federal offense
for any one to travel in interstate or
foreign commerce for the purpose of
avoiding prosecution for certain deSig
mated crimes or of avoiding appear
ance as witnesses in such cases. The
F. B. l. is authorized to investigate
such flights, to make arrests and to
prepare evidence for trial in Federal
Court of those captured
Turned Over to Authorities.
Ordinarily the F. B. l. invokes the
law only when requested to do SO by
State and local authorities Usually
the captured felon is turned over to
local officers for prosecution on more
serious State charges.
One bank robber, wanted on State
charges in Illinois. was traced through
half dozen States before the G-men

Reunion.

SELINSGROVE, Pa, August o.
Gray-haired boatmen gathered their
kinfolk and cronies about them today,
took "chaw" of their favorite plug
tobacco, lighted their pipes and relived
the old Pennsylvania canal days with
song and story. 1t was the twenty
third annual reunion of the Veteran
Boatmen's Association.
Tall tales, slight deviations from
strictly accurate accounts and reminis-
censes. flowed as freely as the waters
used to ripple down the channel.
Boatmen chuckled about how Dave
Bender of Milton used to portray Will
liam Tell by knocking apples from the
heads of his mates-with stones.
He was the best stone thrower on
the canal. Take what he used to do
to the china doorknob on John Bogars
office at Port Treverton, an important
point of call, for instance.
AS it was told today, Dave would
hurl stone, and (by jeepersD he'd hit
it every time. And when Dave heard
his doorknob clatter, he'd know Johns
boat was coming in.
Canal boats hauled coal from Nanti-
coke to Baltimore for 81 ton, and
lumber from Williamsport for SITS a
boatload.
The late Henry F. Charles of Port
Treverton took the last boat through
