"Only last week," Senator Gottschalk, who was a personal friend ei the man, stated, “he came into my office, his face wreathed in smiles, declaring that he now was able to pay off the mortgage.

LANDON NEARS I END OF TOUR Gov. Alf M. Landon To Speak In New York Thursday Night Aboard Landon Campaign Train. Oct 28.—4U.R) —Alf M. Landon, governor of the Prairie alate of Kanstas, thrust the spear-head of Republican attack across New Jersey today toward the tower of New York City and the climax of his bid for the presidency. The lighting spirit of the Repub licau nominee was never more In evidence, his advisers reported, as he prepared for the most slgnifi-1 cant address of his campaign Thursday night in Madisou Square. i Garden. Spurred by the cheers of 10,000 persons who heard his Pittsburgh attack on the new deal as a gov-' ernment “of spoilsmen" by spoilsmen and for spoilsmen,” Gov. Landon was determined to make his summation of the issues at New j York the most effective speech of his campaign. His schedule called for a stop I in Trenton at 10:34 a. m. and Newark at 11:45 a. m. For an address at the Mosque theatre before arriving in New York after 4 p. m.' llt also was announced that en | route back to Kansas he would .top at White Sulphur, W. Va., at | 1:30 p. m. Friday; speak at Charleston at 5:40 p. m. and at Huntißgton at 8:15 p. nf., from where ihe will continue to St. Louis for a major address Saturday night. His Pittsburgh speech was a i promise to restore and expand the j I merit system in civil service, to! ' put all government branches up Jto assistant cabinet members un , tier the competitive system, to re/organize and consolidate govern , ment agencies and to keep nation--1 al political party leaders out of his ~ cabinet. The Kansas governor swung vigi orously at what he termed the i "cynical” disregard of the merit ' system by the new deal in build- • ing up "the most open, the most • crude and the most brutal use of . the spoils system this country has ■ ever seen.” Ke promised a "good old-sash- : ioned house cleaning” to end the "vast army of political mercenar- ! ies" which he said the administra- , tio nhad created in an effort to en- | trench itself in power. Accusing the president of "abandoning his own principles" regarding civil service, Gov. Landon lev- | eled the following charges at the administration: 1. Admission in an article by . James A. Farley that every available federal job was used "to help

'the party.” 2. Increase of patronage jobs I from 100.000 to 300,000 at $500,000,000 increase per year in the pay-i roll. , 3. Discharge of civil service em-I ployes and reduction of the propor . tion of executive employes under I civil service from 80 per cent in 1033 to about 60 per cent last June. 4. Forcing of government emI ployes Into the ranks of a national political machine supported off public payrolls and controlled by the president. 5. Creation of 75 new "alphabet-' leal whatnots” — including many overlapping agencies and bureaus.
