There is, a reason why the Liberty League.' W. R Hearst, the Morgans and the DuPonts do not like him. Instead of streets filled with wild grass as was predicted four years ago, There is a demand for wider thoroughfares, due to the increased business. The fear argument is mighty thin. John G. Winant, former governor of New Hampshire, has decided it is best to continue Roosevelt in office another four years and has announced he will take the; stump for him The Detroit Free Press, most consistent Republican newspaper in the United States is so disgust-' ed with the straw vote which they started to take they have discontinued it. Congressman Farley in his talk 1 at Democratic headquarters gave a splendid resume of the past four years and impressed those who heard him with his ability and his right to expect re-election by a larger majority than ever. Well, here we are, off on the world series. It would have been more exciting it at least on? of the teams was in the middle west but at that a lot of fans are watching the score board.

Every time Mr. Springer makes a speech on the tax question he shows his utter lack of knowledge ' |of the subject. He makes a rash , statement designed to attract votes I and then some friend puts him wise that he is getting himself in ■ for a lot of trouble by advocating something that isn't practical and ■ can t be done, so he calmly changes his tune and stands for something .else. Just now he is busy trying; to win by calling opponents names and throwing a little political mud. IHe is weaker now than he was two weeks ago and by election day will be far behind.

WINANT BACKS SECURITY ACT, Prominent Republican Assails Landon’s Statements W ashington, Sept 30— (U.R) — ' John G. Winant, who resigned Monday as chairman of the social security board, joined administration forces today in a vigorous campaign defending the social security act. In the first of several addresses he will make in defense of the act which he has administered since , it became a law. Winant last night assailed Gov. Alf M. Landon's attack on the act as a "call to retreaL" Wiuant, twice Republican governor of New Hampshire, emphasized at the beginning of his radio I address that he was speaking i "personally, as a private citizen,” although President Roosevelt has I made no announcement of acceptance of his resignation. Without mentioning Gov. Lani don by name. Winant insisted that "an advance has begun — and no man has a right to eall a halt.” He vigorously denied the assertion of "the Republican candidate'' in Milwaukee Saturday night that I the act U a "fraud" and a "cruel i hoax." After reading his letter of resig- i ne.’ion. Winant said: I "Until last Saturday I had hoped i that the attainment of. social | security would be held high above i politics. I had hoped, too. that we might as Americans —and not as Republicans! or Democrats —put ; the program into effect, discover and amend its shortcomings, and go forward toward a larger meai sure ot security for the whole of. the American people. "The call to retreat is written I large in the whole tissue of the , Republican position.” He pointed out that Gov. Landon asserted that the government administration of the act meant prying into Individuals’ private affairs, and in defense .said the government wouM act as in other • fields of taxation, seeking only tne "minimum of information on a man's income.” , Point by point Winant took up Gov. Landon's criticism of the act and fired hack his defense. He charged "the candidate ignores ihe usual methods which attendi his own proposal of dependency relief with its means test.” He stressed that “compulsory savings for the working man" were preferable to "the fear of a 1 lack of a job and the fear of old ' age” Individual private savings ■ can never cope with the problem ■ of security, lie said. The act, Winant sa.id. "enables every person it covers to make at • a small expense to himself a more i ample provision against the comi mon hazards of life.” "In a society in which unemployment has not yet been brought under control aud old age is inevitable. the social security actus a real beginning—enables work-

ing meh and women by acting to- i gether to meet hazards which would overwhelm them it faced alone.” Winant said. $35,000 HOLDUP AT INDIANAPOLIS Three Men Hold Up Truck, Take $35,000 In Jewelry Indianapolis. Sept. 30 — (U.R) — Jewelry valued at $35,000 was taken today by three men who held up a negro baggage truck driver and took a salesman's case containing the gems.
