SMASH BY OLD BOARD MENACES PROGRESSIVES Anti-Hoover Leaders Are Denounced in Move as ‘Communists.’ Pv Scrippt.Hoirard Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.—An organized effort to crush the progressive faction of the Republican party as represented by the La Follette brothers of Wisconsin was seen today by political observers in the latest white House move against anti-Hoover liberals. Emerging from a conference with President Herbert Hoover a few days ago, John B. Chappie, Republican editor of Wisconsin, issued a 1,000-word statement denouncing the La Follette wing as “Socialists’' and “Communists.” He intimated he had discussed the question with the President, and that his attack had the President’s approval. So far there has been no repudiation of Chappie’s action, although the White House has given specific orders against using its threshold for a springboard into the newspaper headlines. In fact. it. formally rebuked Representative Hamilton Fish, New York Republican, when he resorted to the same strategy last spring. Chappie’s denunciation of the La Follettes, who belong to the group composed of senators Norris (Rep., Neb.), Brookhart (Rep., la.), Nye (Rep., N. D.) and half a dozen other progressive senators, is regarded as more than an expression of his own views. He has been selected by George Vitz, Republican national committeeman of Wisconsin, to organize young Republicans for Hoover in 1932. Moreover ,at the young Republicans' conference here a few months ago he was publicly praised by Robert H. Lucas, G. O. P. director, as “the coming Republican leader in Wisconsin. The incident has caused comment second only to that caused by Lucas' undercover campaign against Norris last fall. It has emphasized other moves by the Lucas-Fess group to discredit the senatorial band in the senate, which has opposed administration policies and threatened to bolt if the Democrats name a liberal candidate in the presidential campaign. Besides assailing leaders of advanced political, educational and social thought in Wisconsin, Chappie denounced the La Follette program for unemployment relief as a “dole.” He used almost the same terms employed by administration spokesmen during the senatorial struggle at the last session, and in Hoover’s present efforts to mobilize public sentiment against federal aid to the unemployed. KITTENS IN MAIL BOX Litter Removed to Federal Building From Erstwhile “Home.” A litter of kittens, rescued from a mail box at Prospect street and Churchman avenue, Monday night, today purred their way around the postoffice. The original owners will not claim them, that's sure, or the cats would not have been heard in the mail box by a passing pedestrian. He called police and police called a mail carrier. The box was opened and its scratching cargo taken to the Federal building. YOUNG BIRDS TO RACE Club Members Groom Pigeons for Dash From Illinois City.

FARM BOARD'S COTTON 'JOKER' MAYBEFATAL Abolition or Revision for $500,000,000 Agency Believed Cinched. By Seripps-Hoicard Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.— Drastic amendment of the law that created the federal farm board, or even abolition of this $500,000,000 agency, may result from its cotton-destruc-tion proposal which the south thus far has not accepted, it was believed here today. As criticism was piled on ridicule of the board's suggestion that the 2,000,000 cotton farmers destroy a third of their growing crop, the declaration of Senator Reed (Rep., Pa.) that he intends to seek abolition of the board when congress reconvenes was discussed more generally than at any time recently. The board’s new experiment apparently has failed before it is tried. And many believed the farm board would fail with it. In fact, the cotton trade in Memphis 'is hearing rumors that the board has “thrown up the sponge,” and that its members are on the verge of handing their resignations to President Hoover. This was described at the board’s offices here as a “crazy notion” without foundation. The board was in a fairly firm position in the last congress. It was, of course, subjected to long and repeated attacks. But even southern Democratic senators who were never pleased with it or its operations were unwilling to hamper it in the midst of its stabilization and co-operative program. This was evidenced by the fact that the additional $100,000,000 appropriation—last of the $500,000,000 authorized—was appropriated with but trifling opposition. Moreover, the administration was in power in both houses.
