A co-operative spirit, engendered by a willingness to meet welfare and city officials half-way in their efforts to find better habitations for the thirty-five families in Hooverville. pervaded the squatter village today. A mass meeting will be he’d tonight by * Mayor’ Joe Baxter in Hooverville to thresh out the problems of the town of the unemployed. “Well meet the city half-way. Those that want to move into better homes provided by welfare agencies will be permitted to follow their own desires. Will Sink Well Deeper ' Every citizen living in a shanty will be warned tonight to boil the water they get from the pump which the city condemned." Baxter said. “All we want is guarantee of a permanent home and that has been assured us,” says Baxter. I'm going to sink the well fourteen more feet, which will make twenty-eight feet in depth, and then have the water re-tested for bacteria.” the "mayor” said. First Moving Saturday In the meantime, the first evacuation of a family from the shantytown is planned for Saturday morning. A widow and her children are to be moved by the Family Welfare Society, a Community Fund agency, to a home. The widow will be guaranteed a home, without cost, as long as she is dependent on the county trustees and welfare agencies for livelihood and sustenance. It is planned to evacuate other families in Hooverville in the same manner. It will take a month to evacuate the town. Families with children will be the first to be moved into homes.

F. chief of staff, told members of Hilton U. Brown Jr. post, American Legion, Thursday night, at, the Antlers. Carter, a member of the post, said that if members of the force had been able to find steady employment, they would not have gone to Washington. He asserted there was no national organization, but the men just drifted to Washington. “Former service men have demanded their bonus because they need it," he said.

Hoover to Give ‘Fight’ng Talk;’ Roosevelt Offers Relief Plan; Campaign Speeds Up in County
BY HF.NRY F. MISSELWITE I nll.il Pi-m Stiff CurrMiwmdrnt WASHINGTON. Oct. 14-Pres-ident Hoover intends to make his second major political address of the campaign at Cleveland Saturday night a "fighting talk.” He discovered on his Des Moines trip that this type of appeal for support brought response from his audiences, and will continue • his campaign for re-election in that fashion. He will rarry the Issues of his campaign to Governor Franklin D. Rcosevelt in his Cleveland speech, according to persons close to the chief executive. They doubted he would go Into personalities by mentioning the Democratic nominee by name. The Cleveland speech. It is admitted. in the main will deal with a defense of the administration program to solve the growing menace of unemployment and unrest. The President probably will relate what the administration has done in the three years of the depression to aid the turn toward prosperity.
Roosevelt Urges Relief fill I iiitrrl Prrnn ALBANY. N. Y.. Oct. 14.—" Unsound financial policies” have made the federal treasury’s situation “not desperate,” but at least threatening to future stability,” Franklin Roosevelt declared in the course of enunciating a long-range social welfare program Thursday night. His social welfare policies were based, he made clear, on his belief that, “the first obligation of government is the protection of the welfare, the "Well being, the very existence of its own citizens.” The Governor's attack on federal financial policies came during the course of an explanation of his own policies on public building as a means of unemployment relief. All government treasuries, he said, are hard put to keep their budgets balanced. “If the policies of the present administration are continued,” he declared, “there will be deficits and yet more deficits.” He urged that a ‘ nest egg” he put aside in times of prosperity to provide work during hard times, but in the meantime aiding employment j through worthy public works financed, preferably, by bond issues. As for direct relief for unemployment, he said, "The first principle I would lay down is that the primary duty rests on the community, through local government and local private agencies, to take care of the relief of unemployment.'
Obliging fiy United Prenn CHICAGO, Oct. 14.—Melvin A. Traylor, the banker w>ho was a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, was invited by mistake to attend Thursday a luncheon in honor of Ogden L. Mills, secretary of the treasury and Republican campaigner. When Mrs. Bertha Bauer, Republican leader who sent out the invitations, discovered her mistake, she phoned Traylor to say she’d forgotten he was a Democrat. "That’s all right," he replied; “I’ll come anyway.” So Traylor sat at the speaker’s table, while Mills denounced the Democrats, and even wore a Hoover-for-Presi-dent button, which Mills pressed upon him.
Mills Flays Roosevelt flu 1 ii it rri Press CHICAGO. Oct. 14.—Secretary of Treasury Ogden L. Mills called Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt a pessimist here Thursday night, said he had no plans for leading the nation out of the depression, and charged that he was not experienced enough to be President of the United States. Mills, regarded as the chief speechmaker in the Republican campaign to re-elect President Hoover, spoke in Chicago's ancient coliseum, wnere a marathon walking contest, was in progress. “The depression is the supreme issue of this campaign,” he said. “The reconstruction program is Herbert Hoover's answer. Franklin Roosevelt has none." The secretary based his whole

The constant use of cathartics is often the cause of a sallow complexion and lines in the face. And so unnecessary ! Vt ould you like to break yourself of the cathartic habit? At the same time building health and vigor that protects you from frequent sick spells, headaches, and colds? Get a big botlle of Dr. Caldwell's syrup pepsin today. Use often enough to atyid those attacks of constipation. When you fed weak and run-down or a coated tongue or bad breath warns you the bowels need to be stimulated. Give it to children instead of strong laxatives that sap their strength. It isn’t expensive.

talk on the depression, accused the Democrats of beclouding the issue and praised President Hoover’s ’conception that prosperity and progress are the normal conditions of American life.” Spencer Slaps Larrabee In two Tenth ward meetings Thursday night. Dale B. Spencer. Republican candidate for congress, assailed the record of Representative W. H. Larrabee, his Democratic opponent, seeking re-elec-tion. Charges of nepotism, failure to support Reconstruction Finance corporation legislation, and a past record in voting against resubmission of the Eighteenth amendment were hurled by Spencer. The meetings were held at 1138 Linden street and 1628 villa avenue. Larrabee is representative from the Eleventh district, which includes the eastern section of Marion county.
McNutt at Five Rallies Indications that the Twelfth district will give Paul V. McNutt, Democratic Governor nominee, a record-breaking vote were evident today, after addresses at five rallies Friday night. Many times McNutt gained applause when he promised to “clean the statehouse inside,” oust the public service commission, and "appoint one which would represent the public instead of the operators.” The two issues in this campaign, as far as the Twelfth district is concerned, are utilities and taxation, it was shown plainly. On each of these problems McNutt made clear-cut, forceful statements and enunciated new principles to overflow’ audiences. Crowds waited patiently until 10 and 11 p. m. to hear him. Those who could not get in stood about the amplifiers outside and cheered w’hen McNutt declared that if elected he w’ould demand that the utilities be assessed for taxpaying purposes on the same high valuation used for making rates. “The $1.50 maximum tax law can be made to w’ork —but only through making intangibles, the hidden wealth, pay its proportionate share of the government. This will be done w’hen I am elected Governor,” McNutt said. The meetings were held at Boulevard place and Twenty-first street; Tw’enty-ninth and Clifton streets; King avenue and Walnut street; Arcade theater. 1909 West Morris street, and the Hoosier Athletic Club.
Watson Pleads for Votes “No man who toils can afford to be otherwise than grateful for the results achieved by the present ad ministration.” With this statement. Senator i James F. Watson, in a radio speech from WFBM Thursday night made a plea to employed and unemployed workers for support of the Republican party in the coming election. Asserting that' President Herbert Hoover w’as the first occupant of the White House who “actively h>d concerned himself and assumed personal responsibility of grappling with the situation.” Watson declared that Hoover has ended the political and economic fallacy that depression is “an act of God.” Postmasters Warned “Every postmaster a Republican missionary spreading a gospel of Hoover the humanitarian.'* was the order given 250 Indiana postmasters who met here Thursday afternoon on a hurried call to be admonished regarding their Republicanism by Arch Coleman, first asr sistant postmaster-general. Coleman solemnly warned the postmasters that if Roosevelt is elected they would be ouk of jobs soon after March 4. Coleman demanded that the post* masters act as missionaries in their communities, “because you are respected members and can refute the lies put “out by the Democratic publicity committee In Washington." Tariff Is Harrison Theme Devoting himself to import and export problems, Wdliam Henry Harrison, Republican candidate for congress from the Twelfth district, ! in several speeches Thursday night, struck at proponents of Democratic tariff ideas and pointed to the present protective tariff as one of the chief reasons why “this country ho'ds first rank among nations of the world today.” Harrison upheld the tariff as the medium which has "prevented an eno-mous influx of foreign-mad* goods, which certainly would have made worse the economic crisis we have been going through.”

SOLDIER KILLS ILLINOIS MINER IN ‘WAR ZONE' New Crisis Is Caused in Christian County, Now Big Armed Camp. B’l t nited Preen TAYLORVILLE. 111., Oct. 14. Behind cordons of soldiers, separate military and civil inquiries into the slaying of a mine picket by a rational guardsman began today while this war-torn coal town waited in ominous quiet for the verdicts. L. At the state military barracks, a military court questioned witnesses to the shooting Thu?sday night of Andrew Ganes. 45. father cf three children, by Corporal Russell M. Myers, infantryman from Peoria. Troopers on Patrol
At the coroner's office a pre-in-quest inquiry began over the body of the slain striker, latest victim in the strife that has turned the Christian county coal fields into an armed camp, led to shootings, charges of troopers against crowds of men and women strikers, and divided the population into hostile, suspicious antagonists. While the dual inquiry progressed. troopers patrolled environs of the Peabody mines at Langleyville and Hewittville, guarding the diggers whom they had escorted to the workings this morning after driving pickets back. Sentries walked the streets here and in the villages near the mines, dispersing any groups of more than I three persons. The slaying of Ganes climaxed j a. day of disorder in which a postman. Hollic Butterfield, was wounded. Charge Barn Fortress Seven persons—including Mrs. Annie Ganes, wife of the slain man —were injured when a truck in which they were being “deported” | to the county line overturned. Troopers charged a barn fortress of the strikers, dispersing them , with warning shots. Further complicating the situation was the issuance of murder warrants against Colonel Robert Davis, commander of the One hundred thirtieth infantry, and Captain ! Charles J. Meachan, his aid.
