HUNGRY HOGS AND HIGH CORN HAMPER G. 0. PJNKANSAS Democrats Abandon Hope of Carrying State —Look to La Follette, By LOWELL MELLETT Times Staff Correspondent WICHITA, Kan., Oct. 20—Republicans outside of Kansas may feel perfectly sure of this State, but the same isn’t true of Republicans in Kansas. For this, some of the credit must be given to the hogs. The hogs, farmers say, are hungrier this year than they have ever been known to be, and are keeping the farmers broke feeding them the present high priced corn. The price of hogs not having kept pace with the price of corn and the farmers very generally having diversified their crops so that they have less corn to sell and more corn to buy than usual, the advance in corn prices is not regarded as blessing. Republican or otherwise. Democrats Hopeless The first politician to board Senacar as it entered Kansas was a Democratic county official who said he was in charge of the Democratic campaign in the six southwestern counties. He admitted La FolleCe and Wheeler will carry those counties, in which the farmers have practically all the votes. Demoermts in Kansas have abandoned any hope of making any showing for Davis and their local candidates are seeking to ride in on the La Follette sentiment. Economic condition of the farmer apparently is not nearly as good as it is pictured to the outside world, but is not the whole reason for their desertion of Coolidge this fall. For one that talks about his own problem, two mention the corruption of the Harding-Coolidge Administration. Victor Murdock, whose newspaper. the Wichita Eagle, is nationally known, has been hammering on this corruption since the campaign opened, and he is counted a shrewd judge of Kansas psychology. What angered Murdock was the Wheeler indictment. He doesn't allow a day pass without the widelyread Eagle reminding Kansas voters of that. Contributing to Republican uncertainty is the Klan issue. It has dominated over other subjects in the State campaign, particularly since William Allen White, editor of the Emporia Gazette, took the field as an independent and anti-Klan candidate in the governorship race. His action has broken up party lines and made ballot scratching easier. When cornered by a heckler. White says he is for Coolidge and immediately reverts to State issues. Little Organization The La Follette force* show little evidence of active organization

Bell to Ring for Voters
MRS. J. O. MILLER Bn SEA Service jHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. I 20. —Accompanied by the _£ I Justice Bell, a reproduction of the Liberty Bell, which rang out for equal suffrage, the Pennsylvania League of Women Voters has started on a State wide tour to "Get Out the Vote." The women will ring the bell over the route It made on its historic tour in 1915 when the struggle for votes for women was under way. This famous bell rang for the first time in 1922 when Tennessee ratified the suffrage amendment and made votes for women an established feet. The bell, which weighs a ton, is mounted on a three-ton truck. f Mrs. Frances R. Strawbridge of Germantown, Pa_, organized the caravan. About thirty women's organizations are participating. Mrs. John O. Miller Is State chairman of the league and Mrs. Charles M. Lee is director of the caravan.
work, much less here than in most States. For that matter, natives say there is less organized work this year than usual on the part of the Republicans. Senators Capper and Curtis are making speeches for Coolidge. Dawes came to Wichita for one meeting. He packed a big hall; but left his audience wondering when he cut his speech to twenty-two min utes. Visible signs give Coolidge a small lead over La Follette. If the invisible or silent vote Is largely La Follette. as the Republican leaders fear, one more State may be lost to the old guard.

With the campaign fund in vestlgating committee recessed until Tuesday when It resumes Its hearing in Washington, political leaders were today awaiting answers from the Davis and La Follette camps to William Gibbs McAdoo’s letter to Senator Claude Swanson in which he expressed regret the Democrats and Independents can not unite in their fight against the Republicans, at the same time however, saying that only hope of the country to escape chaos, Is to elect Davis and Bryan John VV. Davis, who speaks today in Vanderbilt University stadium at Nashville, gave a statement in which he said La Follette would curry' six or eight States that otherwise would go Republican. Regarding La Follette's candidacy, Davis said “the Democratic party, while cj posed to Senator La Follette and his supporters, does not share the Republican fear of radicalism In the Independent ranks." La Follette will make the last speech of his Western campaign today at Omaha, after which he will return to the East confident the West Is safe for .the independents. William M Rutler. chairman of, the Republican national committee, in demanding an impartial Investigation of campaign funds, charged efforts were being made to raise $500,000 for La Follette In Wisconsin alone, an amount far out of proportion to what I/a Follette has charged was being raised by Republicans In Pennsylvania.

In a statement made public today by the Democratic national committee twenty-three college professors have signed an article declaring they will vote for John W. Davis as the only way to lead the United States into the League of Nations and the world court Is through his election.
