Carmody Makes
New Allegations

JACKSON, Miss. June rs. (UP)
Rural Electrification Administra-
tor John NJ Carmody, Washington.
last night sent to Tallahatchie
Valley Electric Power association
officers new charges Of alleged
efforts of the Mississippi Power
and Light company to cripple fed
eral-financed projects.
The Mississippi Power and Light
company is subsidiary Of the Elec-
trio Band and Share corporation,
at least three of whose affiliates
Carmody singled out for what he
called spite line tactics"
Replying to President Rex l..
Brown Of the Mississippi company
who defended his firms extension
OF power 10 miles into Crowder,
Carmody wrote association Off
GERS that power company agents
were "busily engaged in detaching
the projects customers with Of
fers OF immediate connections at
no, cost" -
Carmody's, answer declared that
Browns statement on the Crowder

points from the reports made to
me by the people on the Tallahat-
chic valley project"

who opposed his supreme court
bill by saying:
Il certainly would not indicate
a preference in a state primary
merely because candidate, other
wise liberal in outlook, had consci-
entiously differed with me on any
single issue. l should be far more
concerned about the general atti-
tude of a candidate toward present
day problems and his own inward
desire to get practical needs at
tended to in a practical way"
He made what was interpreted
as an indirect criticism Of the ac-
tivities of Frank Hague, of Jersey
City, N. j., when he said:
There can be no constitutional
democracy in any community
which denies to the individual his
freedom to speak and worship as
he wishes. The American people
will not be deceived by anyone
who attempts to suppress individ-
ual liberty under the pretense of
patriotism.
In closing, the president appeal
ed to liberal candidates to CON
fine themselves to argument and
not resort to blows" BY blows
he said he meant "misrepresenta-
ton, personal attacks and appeals
to prejudice"
The presidents appeal for sup
port of liberal candidates in OPP
position to conservatives conceded
with reports that the administra-
ton openly will lend aid to Rep
resentative David ]. Lewis. New
Dealer, who is challenging the
seat of Senator Millard Tydings,
conservative, in the Maryland
Democratic primary. Likewise, it
has been reported that the New
Deal will give under-cover support
to liberals challenging the seats OF
such conservative Democrats as
Senators Walter F. George, or
Georgia. and Ellison D. Smith, OF
South Carolina.
AT one time all Democrats who
opposed the presidents judiciary
bill feared that this rebellion
would result in reprisal attempts
nv the administration. The drive
in this direction by the "elimina-
ton" committee was set back on
it's heels when Senator Guy NJ.
Gillette. D., Ida, who opposed the
court bill. was renominated in the
recent Iowa primary over Repre-
sentative Otha D. Wearin, who
claimed administration support.

thing be done or said to restore
confidence since he took office in

After citing a sharp upturn in

of 1892 and forecasting an income
of 100000, 100000 for 1888, Mr..

no state primary contests and that
/ his remarks had no bearing on
primaries Of any political parties,
but to matters Of principle in old
parties.
He drew the issue in the Novem-
Der balloting as one between liber-
ais and conservatives. The liberals

that new remedies can be adopted

country under our present form Of
government if the government is

does not recognize the need for
government itself to step in and
take action to meet new problems.
Assuming the mental capacity
of all the candidates, the import

a wage-hour bill last year.
Inviting cooperation from both
groups with the government in the
future, the president emphasized
that they should unite in resisting
wage cuts which would further re-
duce purchasing power.
IF this is DONE" he said, lit
ought to result in conditions which
will replace a great part Of the
government spending which the
failure of cooperation made neces-
sary, this year."
Without mentioning the COM
pany by name, the chief executive
praised the Carnegie Illinois Steel
company, for reducing prices on
semi manufactured prices OF its
products. ...
To-day a great steel company
announced a reduction in prices
with a view to stimulating bust
ness recovery, and / was gratified
to know that this reduction involv-
ed no wage cut" he said. Every
encouragement should be given to
industry, which accepts large
volume-high wage policy"
His rebuke to industrialists was
not unusual and it was noted that
his criticism of government lead
ers was mild 1t was not custo-
mary, however, for the president
to rebuff labor leaders before such
a large audience and their reac-
ton was awaited with considerable
interest. ...' .'r
