WEST AFLAME WITH REVOLT, SAYS WHEELER Swing to Roosevelt One of Many Outbursts ‘Against ‘Financial Oligarchy.’ BY MAX STERN 1 lines (Stuff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 4. The west is aflame with another of America's periodical revolts against its “financial oligarchy,” according to Senator Burton K. Wheeler (Dem., Mont ), who just has returned from the Pacific coast. Wheeler said Governor Roosevelt is certain to carry every state west of the Missouri, with three passible exceptions—Utah, Colorado and Wyoming—which are more likely to go for Roosevelt than for Hoover. The Montanan sees in this sweep of anti-Hoover sentiment more than a back-fire from the depression. It is, he thinks, an authentic revival of popular resentment that

every so often has swept back from the frontier to enguli the east, and claim the nation's capital for the farmers, workers and other plain people. “The Roosevelt movement of the west is a real and valid r e b ellion of the mas ses," Wheeler said. “Every so often the yoke off a v ored financial interests becomes too great for the American masses to bear. Then they revolt.

Wheeler

"The first revolt was led by the Virginian, Jefferson, against Hamilton; the next by the Tennesseean, Jackson; the next by the Illinois rail-splitter, Lincoln. Bryan, Theodore Roosevelt, Wilson and La Follette have led later revolts. The present one is quite as significant. “That Franklin D. Roosevelt is a New Yorker does not affect the validity of his leadership any more than did the fact that the first Roosevelt was from that state. "Governor Roosevelt speaks for the masses against the power of concentrated wealth, just as truly as did these other great popular leaders. "The new enemies of the American people are the financial racketeers who are destroying this nation’s peace and prosperity. When Roosevelt wins next mpnth, these will have lost!" CLEARED OF CONTEMPT IN 4-YEAR FIGHT Byron Hiner Victor in Supreme Court; Not to Serve Sentence. After waiting four years, Byron Hiner, Indianapolis, Monday was cleared of an indirect contempt of court charge by the Indiana supreme court, which overruled a sentence passed by the Marion criminal court in 1928.

PRISON LABOR WILL BE TOPIC AT CONVENTION All Sides of Puzzle to Be Aired at Session of Parley Tonight. Prison labor, one of the most troublesome problems of penal institutions today, will be the principal topic at tonight's session of the American Prison Association, which opened Monday. The subject will be aired from all sides by several speakers. Objections on the part of labor organizations will be presented by Edgar E. Perkins, state industrial board member. John E.. Fredrick of Kokomo, state Chamber of Commerce president, will give the manufacturers’ viewpoint, while Frank D. Whipp, Illinois penitentiary warden, will speak from the warden’s viewpoint. Meetings Until Friday Sessions of the national convention will continue until Friday, with an expected total attendance of nearly 1,000 men and women interested in prison work in all parts of the nation. The wardens’ association members were to visit the Indiana reformatory at Pendleton this afternoon. The trip was to include demonstration on use of scientifically trained dogs in prison work. Probation and parole were termed the only safe and effective means of relieving overcrowded conditions in the nation's penal institutions, Occar Lee, Wisconsin state prison warden, association president, said at a session Monday night at the Claypool. Population Is Increasing Lee read figures showing the state and federal prison population in 1910 was 68,821, dropping to 64,145 by 1921, and then more than doubling in the next eight years, making the total 122,985 in the year 1929. “In order to reduce these excess populations,’’ he said, “we suggest a broader and more general use of adult probation for first offenders, and particularly for those convicted of minor offenses. “Persons convicted of serious offenses, such as murder, criminal attack or bank robbery, should not be eligible to probation. Probation, under strict and conscientious supervision, in most cases will produce better results than imprisonment, and the individual concerned and his family will be saved stigma attached to a prison sentence. Discusses Cell Idleness “Probation, carried to its ultimate conclusion, will mean that no person convicted of a minor offense will be sent to prison unless he first has been tried on probation. “From 10 to 15 per cent of the population of any prison at any one time safely may be released on parole. Inasmuch as the principal object of imprisonment is reformation and rehabilitation, there exists no reasonable excuse for keeping the average prisoner confined longer when it appears that objective has been attained.” Lee also discussed legislation restricting industries in prisons, declaring no greater mistake could be made than sending men to prison and keeping them in idleness. HOOVERVILLE DENIED OWN ‘POLICE FORCE’ Applicant Refused Right to Patrol Settlement of Evicted Families. Attempt of residents of Hoover - ville, settlement of evicted families on White river, to establish a town “police department” failed today when Chief Mike Morrissey and the safety board refused an applicant’s request for police powers.
