Campaign Pace
Denied by FDR

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25. up
President Roosevelt Tuesday sum-
marily rejected a news conference
inference that he had started to
campaign for reelection lin the
usual sense"
He referred reporters back to his
fourth-term nomination acceptance
speech in which he said:
Il shall net campaign, in the usual
sense, for the office. In these days
of tragic sorrow, I do not consider
it fitting. Besides, in these days of
global warfare. l shall not be able
to find the time. l shall, however,
feel free to report to the people
the facts about matters of concern
to them and especially to correct
any Misrepresentation
STARTS THINGS
The subject came up when a re-
porter following a discussion of
campaign speeches which the Pres
ident will make between now and
election day, asked if it were not
/ true that Mr.. Roosevelt now was
campaigning in the usual partisan
| sense"
The news conference had been de-
sultory up to that point. But with
this question, the Presidents eyes
frightened and he said this gave
him an idea to talk on.
He said there was an amazing
number of newspapers which con-
slider themselves reputable but
which still have fallen into the
awful habit of quoting half CT a
sentence. With obvious glee, he said
he had caught them all and did not
know where they had picked up this
habit.
He went on to recall that in one
sentence of his acceptance speech
ne said he would not campaign in
! the usual sense except-and here he
I was stopped by questioner who
! pointed out that the word except
dealt with a separate matter
MIGHT SHOOT SCRIBE
! The President told this reporter
he could in all probability ask him
to stay in the President'S office aft
er the news conference and shoo
him except that he would probably
go to the electric chair for that.
Mr.. Roosevelt then returned to hi
acceptance speech, saying that h
would not campaign in the usua
sense except to answer misrepre
sentations and gross misstatement
of fact. That he said, is on the rec
ord, unfortunately for people whit
forgot to quote whole sentence.
! A reporter argued that the Pres
ident's statement about non-cam

Experiments Set
On Mixtures
In Pasture Areas

Demonstrations of vetch-oats and
rye-barley pasture Will be made in
connection with the forage program
in Imperial county, Assistant Farm
Advisor George Winright said We'd
nesday.
1--WE again are going to try the
combination of vetch and oats just
for winter pasture" Winright said,
and Harold Hunt already has a
rlot ready. We tried this plan in
Imperial county years ago and
found it necessary to inncculate the
vctch. We were not satisfied with
the results then. This year, however,
we decided to try again, profiting
by our previous experiments. Hunt
also is interested in a temporary
pasture of rye and barley, the bar
ley for winter and the rye for
spring"
Winright said several other farm
erS in the county are considering
similar experiments as those being
carried on by Hunt.

Administration FumbIes Army Consolidation. Republicans AIIeee
lhlloan NAtlonal OommlttNr

By the Republican National Committee
 THE administration plan for demohlliEation-its only declared plan-is contained In Q law known as then Murray. George Law and the Democratic Party lays great stress on the fact that one provision of this law reads "The War and Navy Departments shall not retain persons In the armed forces for the purpose of preventing unemployment or awaiting op. portunities for employment"
 stressing this provision iS intended to eounteraet General fsrBheys statement RS head Of seleetlVe Service that "it would Do Just aB cheap to keep men in the Army aS to set up another government agency to provide jobs for them"
 The question Is whether the provision will be stressed only in announcements and speeches from Washington or whether it will Do followed in actual practice,
 Every evidence points to the probability that the Administration Is, aS usual, fumbling around with the demobation program, hoping that some miracle will occur some bright slogan Do tossed off which will divert public attention from what is certain to Do c major test of administrative efficiency.
 THAT slow gradual demobliEaton was intend- cd by the administration Is indicated first by Gen. eral HerSheyS statement cd second by tho long de- lay Of the President in signing the Murray George Bill In fact 1t was not signed until the very last day of the constitutional To-day period under which bills not signed during Congressional recess are automAt icaliy vetoed. Then the bill was signed only after Governor Dewey had called attention to General HerBheyB statement.
 All this is typical of an administration which habitually permits problems to develop into crises and then tries to hide the crisis behind some new makeshift bureau.
 This is all the more alarming because the record of this administration in regard to former soldiers and sailors Is 80 markedly unSympathetic. It has followed the line laid down by President Roosevelt when ho told an American Legion Convention in 1883, that: No person, because he wore Q uniform must there- after be placed special class of benefieiares over and above all citizens"
 THE New Deal policy of favoFng certain groups weakens any confidence in it's inipartiaty, or It's ability to create equal opportunities for those who are discharged.
 Although nearly million men have so far been honoraby separated from the service, no machinery has yet been set up for administration of the so- called C. I. Bill of Rights which was passed in June of this year.
 Like all other measures undertaken by the admin ktration the rights of on individual under this law are snarled in the red tape of conflicting bureaus and authorities that 1t is impossible for them to ob. tain the practical aid promised and due them ct the time of their greatest need.
