LANE SOUNDS CALL
TO ALL DEMOCRATS
National Committeeman
Addresses First Big
Campaign Rally
(WkU ScSViccl

Appearing at the first big Dem
ocratic County rally of the present
Presidential campaign, w. Preston
Lane, Jr., Democratic National
Committeeman declared at North
Beach, Nd, that the real issue of
the contest was whether the ma
ton wanted government for the
many, or government designed to
intrench the few economic royal
lists who might in their goodness
drop crumbs TO the general popu-
lation.
Mr.. Lane shared the platform
with Truman B. Cash, Chairman of
the State Central Committee, SEN
ator Radcliffe and others, who
spoke briefly.
After some discussion of inter-
national conditions, Mr.. Lane said:
Under Republican rule the in
dustrial East prospered and grew
rich while the agricultural wealth
of the nation rapidly degenerated
into devitalizing poverty. In 1882
income from farm marketings to-
tailed four billion, 6S2 million dol
lars. In 1889 such income had in
creased to seven billion, I'll mil

the heart of the Roosevelt Wallace
program - has saved in the last
seven years 80 million acres of

luraI employment has increased
by nine million in that period. In
1889 construction work of all kinds
had a value 8 birion, 900 million
dollars compared to a value of 4
billion dollars in 1888.
Despite the dOu6t and appre-
henslOn with which business has
regarded these reforms it is a sig
nlfcant fact that business gener-
ally has made great advances
since 1882. AS employment has
increased national income has in
creased. For example. EMPLOY
ment has increased from 81 mil
lion 500 thousand in 1882 to As mil
lion 300 thousand in 1899, with a
corresponding increase in national
income from 40 billion dollars in
1892 to SO billion 500 million dol
lars in 1889. Or to put it in an
other way, the index of industrial
production has risen from "a to ITO
in 1897 and 105 in 1899. The COM
for 1928. We may pursue this com
parison further by pointing out
that national bank failures in the
last three years of the Hoover Ad-
ministration numbered 1912 while
for 6 years of the Roosevelt Ad-
ministration, from 1884 through
1899, only IA banks closed their
doors. Today, the assets of ma
tional banks are the highest ever
reported in the history of the ma
tional bank system"
In commenting on the promises
of the Republican Party, Mr.. Lane.
said:
I'VE do not know and we cannot
judge from past performances
what they would do with this pro-
gram should they come to power,
but we do know how this program
will be administered and expanded
in the interest of all the people if
Mr.. Roosevelt is returned to pow
er. But it is pertinent to observe
that in this contest you have on
one hand an administration sin
cerely devoted not to the interest
of a special class but of all the
people, while, on the other hand,
you have representative of
special interest supported by men
of additionally ultra-conservatism
whose objective always has been
the concentration of power and
wealth in a select class"
Turning historically in discuss
ing the third term question. Mr..
Lane said there can be no dicta-
torship while the Congress is in
existance and the Supreme Court
sits. I'VE can turn to the men who
are credited with having establish
ed this precedent and find in their
writings sound reason for the
present candidacy of Mr.. Roose-
velt,' he said 1T is true that
George Washington refused a
third term, but he based his re-
fusal entirely upon personal rea-
sons. His real view of the matter
was expressed in a letter to Cen
eral Lafayette in which he said:
Under an extended view of this
part of the subject l can see NO
propriety in precluding ourselves
from the services of any man who,
on some great emergency, is deem
ed, universally, most capable of
serving the public.

POWER GRANT HAS

Last July congress passed an
act to expedite the national de-
fens. This empowers the presi-
Dent, through the secretary Of
war, to build and operate factories
for the manufacture OF military
equipment. supplies and num-
tions. Under this the president
could put the government into the
munitions business-or the air
plane manufacturing business, or
indeed into practically any other
business affecting national de-
tense.
This same law then goes on to
make an amazing grant OF power
which has the lawyers guessing
but looks like authorization to do
practically anything. II simply
empowers the president ito pro-
vide for emergencies affecting the
national security and defense and

president to commander any fac
