fenseless against the profiteer."

rally in his home city. Mr. Jackson
remarked that President Roosevelt
has declared that there must be no
new crop of millionaires created"
and added:
The Republican candidate, how
ever, while preaching sacrifice to the
masses of the people, has defended
defense profits of his big-business
friends. He has bitterly opposed any
conscription of wealth or of plants
Mr.. Jackson added he has done
all that could to stop the increasing
concentration in this country Of
great aggregations of other peoples
money in the hands of lawless, ir-
responsible and ruthless men like
Wendell Willkie, who exploit in
vestors and consumers and throw
prosperity from. one community to
another"

Democratic Leaders
Walk Out as Wallace
Lauds La Toilette
Candidate for Governor
Sees Danger Of Split
In Party os in 1884
b. the Associated Press.

by tne hSSOClateo fIcSS.
MADISON, Wis, Oct. 23.-Henry
A. Wallace. Democratic vice presi-
Dental nominee, gave an indirect
Endorsement at campaign rally
here last night to Senator La Fol-
lette. Progressive candidate for re-
election. and a half-dozen Demo-
Gratis opposed to La Toilette walked
off the speakers platform.
Among those who left were James
E. Finnigan, of Milwaukee, Sem
ator La Follette's opponent on the
Democratic ticket, and Francis E.
McGovern, Of Milwaukee, Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor.
1884 Split Recalled.
Prefacing his remarks before 5000
persons in which he advocated Gov
ernment help for the dairy industry.
of which Wisconsin is a large part,
Mr.. Wallace said:
II desire on this occasion partic-
ularly to express my appreciation
of the untiring support we In WASH
ington have received from the Dem
ocratic and Progressive Congress-
men in Wisconsin and from your
senior Senator, Robert M. La Fol-
lette,"
Mr.. Wallace's appearance was
reminiscent of the Presidents visit
at Green Bay in 1884 when Mr..
Roosevelt gave Senator La Toilette
pat on the back"
Mr.. McGovern said Mr.. Wallace's
Endorsement" was the kind that
split the Democratic party at Green
Bay and that "it will do it again"
Government Help Urged.
Mr.. Wallace said the dairy in
dustry, like other forms of agricul-
ture, suffered from dangerous. run
ious prices, which have been i'm
proved since 1882, but not wholly
cured.
The farmers. therefore. have to
have Government help to remove
surpluses from the market when
they threaten to smash prices" he
said.
Before leaving Madison today, Mr..
McGovern announced he was going
back to Milwaukee Ito resume my
active campaign for the Democratic
party in the State" He added he
would put forth every possible
effort to assure a sweeping Demo-
cratic victory on November 81
Il regard this as a party matter,
not one for individuals" Mr.. Fin
negan said. He added that he would
comment tomorrow after conferring
with other Democratic candidates
and his political advisers.

Secretary Knox Warns
OF Grim Things Ahead
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-An axis
victory at either or both ends of the
Mediterranean would cut the life
line Of the British Empire and seri-
ously threaten the United States,
Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox
declared last night.
He said in an address to the In
surance Institute of America that
renewed negotiations between the
axis powers and Spain presaged a
new attempt to open a route to
Africa.
Such an attempt, if successful. he
said, would be immensely impor-
tant" to this country because it
would give the Nazis an air base on
the West African coast, 1900 miles
from Brazil.
He warned of grim things ahead
this winter and asserted that we
will continue to help Britain and
China, regardless of what Hitler and
Mussolini think and added, I'VE
will pile up ornaments and we will
not try to appease anybody"

Lawyers for Roosevelt" To-day IS
per cent of the press is savagely
criticizing the President in the most
absurdly exaggerated. language.
Dictators 'dismiss their Parlia-
ments and act by DEGREES; yet today
the Congress of the United States
has just shaped defense policy on
a vast scale, passed its own laws, In
Its own ways.
Abroad dictators seize the lands
of small. peaceful countries; today
the Presidents good neighbor policy
has solidly cemented our friendship
with Mexico and with South Amer
lea in this time of our mutual need,
in the interest of unifying the whole
Western Hemisphere in a program
OF strong independence
'Nszi Germany. he said. "detests
the President and is now working
for his defeat"

May Stop Export
Of Peeler Logs

To provide "eventualities the
L. S defense commission Thurs
day advised Congressman John NJ.
Coffee il might be the part Of
wisdom to restrict the expectation
OF Douglas fir peeler logs and
Port Oxford cedar ,ogs"
The suggestion was contained
in a reply to a letter written the
commission BY Coffee in regard
to his bill. HR. 9l4l, in which
the board was urged to support
the measure on the basis that high
grade Douglas fir logs are ap-
parently required for the nations
defense program. and declaring it
j. suicidal for this country TO
export this raw material, par
tioularly to Japan
High grade Douglas fir logs
Of the peeler type. the congress
man wrote the commission. are
used by the plywood industry and
also by sswmills for certain high
grade speoislties. such as ship
decking high grade structural
tim her. etc.
THE products cannot be pro-
duced from defective timber or
timber OF inferior quality. Such
timber represents an irreplaceable
and indispensable raw material Of
the greatest importance to the
economy OF the entire Northwest.
THE future of the Northwest. +"
concluded Coffee. lis dependent
largely on the refining of its own
raw materials 10 the greatest pos
sible extent. The export of raw
materials, particularly of the fir
peeler log type. is setting back the
Northwest to colonial times. and
this policy will be equally detn-
mental to forest products indus
tries as to the thousands of work
ers engaged in them"
