—This Is Your Column— You Say It Be Your Own Columnist; Page One Is Wide Open for Your Views. P.d it or Timt *— A RTHUR CALLAHAN expresses the opinion that ex-service men should start a movement to reduce the number of working wives, the vaoancies to be filled by men. Truly, most working wives use their salaries to lv*lp out the family budget, but many women are doing interesting office work who feel that the cooking and cleaning and laundry work in the home can be done by another woman, who ran do this type of work and who needs the money. The Times, in an editorial Oct. 17, says the desire of some women to work outside the home is due to a slow growth in women, a desire to develop and exercise latent powers. a desire to participate in the real struggle of today, and that this tide will run strongly for generations. Are not Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and Mrs. Garner women of this | type? I dare say that if their husI bands are elected they reluctantly will relinquish their positions in school and office. A WORKING WIFE. * * F.ditnr Times— I SUBMIT that the very first thing Franklin D. Roosevelt ought to do after he has been elected 'and answered congratulatory telegrams and letters is to bring action for slander against Nick Longworth’s widow to recover damages from her for circuluating the report that she is related to him. As to Henry Ford, a great success as long as he confines himself to automobiles, but a pitiable failure when he dips his fingers into anything else, it might not be amiss for Roosevelt to make to him right away a suggestion similar to that made by the author of the letters of Junius to Davy Garrick, the English actor, when he left the stage in a fruitless endeavor to discover the identity of the author, viz: that he stick to his billboards. HENRY U. JOHNSON. Richmond, Ind. u n u

Fditor Time* — RE t M E M BER “Out of the Trenches by Christmas,” and Henry Ford’s peace expedition? Remember his “back to the farm” theory? And now we have his “vote for Hoover” order. This order comes from a city where the condition of employment and suffering is deplorable. This order is typical of the complete ignorance of world affairs that this man has shown ever since he came into prominence. Asa help in world crises, he has proved himself a good automobile manufacturer, Just because he had an idea several years ago that turned out to be good, he still thinks he should be listened to. Well, he will be listened to and the voters of this great country will profit by his advice in the past and do the opposite. T. L. B. p. S.—Four years ago we elected Hoover because we thought he would do the best he could. He has. That's the trouble.

a * Editor Times — IT is regrettable to think that in this day of education and civilization we can’t have a political campaign without the old and evermalicious display of religious bigotry. Lies, at least a century old, are brought out, dusted, and polished off, and placed on the propaganda market as brand-new and important facts. Opposing factions will accuse the same candidate of being a playmate of D. C. Stephenson and an emissary of the Pope. Why should any man be either denounced or approved because of his religious belief? To probe the pettiness of a man's soul, you have only to appeal to his religious prejudices. Ignorance and intolerance are as inseparable as the Siamese twins. A READER. * Editor Times — DURING a recent visit to Indianapolis. I happened to observe in The Times column a letter signed. "Taxpaying Father," commenting on the large number of children roaming the streets at night. Not only was this my personal observation, but on mentioning the fact to some of your leading business men, I was told by them that this situation is prevalent in neighborhood business districts as well as in the downtown section, and that the merchants are unable to protect themselves from the annoyance of hordes of children swarming about their places of business, obstructing sidewalks, breaking windows, making discourteous retorts to passers-by and damaging parked automobiles. These children also are doing a greater harm to themselves, physically and morally, smoking cigarets, playing with dice, wasting the best hours of rest. I do not like to leave Indianapolis with this impression of lawlessness of the younger generation, from kindergarten to high school age. But is the whole city of Indianapolis, particularly the parents and police department, so deeply steeped in bridge and politics as to forget young America? A FT. WAYNE VISITOR.

INSULL JR. TO DARE ARREST, RETURN HOME Tells London Reporters He Will Come Back to U. S. in November. SEEKS TO AID FATHER Reported Seeking Refuge for Older Man on English Soil. BY HERBERT MOORE United Press Staff Correspondent

LONDON, Oct. 22.—Samuel Insull Jr., will return to the United States, even if Chicago authorities decide to arrest him, he told tfie United Press today. Insull professed to be a tourist, chiefly interested in London’s penny slot museums. He insisted he would return to the United States in November to resume his job as chairman of three Chicago operating companies. In response to a direct inquiry by the United Press as to whether he would return even if Chicago authorities decided to arrest him for complicity in the collapse of the Insull industrial empire, he replied: - ,“I probably—yes, I will.” Insull refused a formal statement. He declined to comment on a question regarding charges against himself, his father, or Martin Insull. Faces Reporters’ Barrage Insull insisted he was here merely on a personal visit. Tt was reported, however, that he hoped to sound out the British government on the possibility of Samuel Insull Sr. requesting political asylum on British soil, perhaps in Cyprus. The elder Insull is in Greece, but his Greek visa will expire in a short time. Samuel Jr. admitted he might make a quick trip to Athens before going home. He admitted he would consult London barristers associated with Greek attorneys in handling his father’s affairs.

Insull sat in the lounge of the Park Lane hotel for two hours and faced a barrage of questions from American and British correspondents. Twice he obliged photographers by walking to the green park, opposite the hotel, and posing for them. Insull had not decided if he would try to vote by mail. He evaded several questions, apologizing good humoredly, saying it was “best to allow matters to develop fully.” Denies He Will Resign “I feel like a carp taken from a muddy river and put in a goldfish bowl, under a spotlight,” Insull said of the publicity he has received. Insull smoked a cigaret in an ivory holder less than inch long. He wore shell-rimmed glasses and a business suit. He appeared in good spirits.” “I have lost a fortune,” Insull said. “Now I have only a salary.” He insisted that he was not going to resign from the offices he holds in Chicago. "I am on vacation and my boss, James Simpson, expects me back in November. I also am anxious to see my wife and my 17-months-old baby," Insull said.

POLICE HUNTING ATHLETIC THIEF Vaults Over Hood.of Cops’ Car to Escape. An athletic thief who vaulted gracefully across the hood of a slowly moving police car while escaping from persons who cornered him in a grocery warehouse at 102 South West street, is sought by police today. The police car, carrying Sergeant Leo Troutman and patrolman Otto Raasch, joined the chase as the thief fled down the center of West street with nearly a dozen pursuers behind him.

Attempt to caijse Democratic Indiana voters to lose their ballots Nov. 8 through voluntary mutilation received official recognition Friday when James A. Farley, Democratic national chairman, termed the act "despicable.” Unsigned postcards from Chicago urging state Democrats to write in the name ~of Alfred E. Smith on ballots replacing Franklin D. Roosevert as presidential candidate have been received in Indianapolis. A personal letter from James E. Deery, city attorney, to a former schoolmate, Frank C.

‘GANG HOOVER’ CAMPAIGN IS SIZZLED BY NORMAN THOMAS

GIRL MOTHER TORTURED BY BOOZE GANG Held 48 Hours, Beaten to Reveal Alky Secrets of Her Employer. LIQUOR WAR IS FEARED Gary Police Hint Bitter Reprisals May Follow for Kidnaping. By United Press GARY, Ind., Oct. 22.—Bruised and beaten during forty-eight hours of torture at the hands of kidnapers, Mrs. Catherine Blanco, 20 mother of two small children was placed under police guard today as authorl* ties sought to prevent an impending liquor war here. Mrs. Blanco, her hair singed and her arms lacerated by razor blades, told police she was kidnaped from a downtown street Tuesday and was taken to a deserted farmhouse by two men she believed were Chicago gangsters. They tortured her into revealing secrets about the liquor business of her employe, Joe Sannicola Gary confectioner, she said.

Thrown From Auto It was not until the abductors threatened to kill her children that she "talked,” Mrs. Blanco told police. She was thrown from the kidnapers’ auto near her home Friday night. During her imprisonment, Mrs. Blanco said she was given a sleeping powder and then was attacked by the two men. Under questioning of local officers, Mrs. Blanco said she had acted as a “go-between” between Sannicola and a Gary police liquor squad. She declared that the squad “tipped” her off to impending raids and she in turn would remove all evidence from Sannicola’s place. Before the police department’s recent shakeup, Mrs. Blanco said her employer was paying as much as S4O to S6O a week to certain detectives for protection. New Liquor War Feared Under agreement with the local liquor syndicate, Sannicola was supposed to dispense fifteen gallons of alcohol daily, police asserted the young mother told them. “His business was so good that he was buying two additional five-gal-lon cans daily from another source,” she said. “The men who kidnaped me said Sannicola was doing too much business and the other bootleggers were complaining. They wanted to know where he was buying the other two cans of alcohol and where he kept them.” Pplice were ordered to keep a close watch on all suspected bootleggers today in the belief that the kidnaping might precipitate another liquor war.

$30,000 COST TO PUT HOOVER SPEECH ON AIR 111 Stations Will Carry Detroit Talk Tonight at $5 a Word. By Scripps-Howard Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.—The two major parties are burning up the air with campaign speeches which may run up the 1932 radio expense to nearly the sum spent in 1928. The Republicans, who four years ago spent nearly half a million dollars on the radio in electing President Herbert Hoover, already are up to the limit of their original 1932 budget of $275,000, and are arranging for other important and expensive broadcasts. The Democrats, whose 1928 radio bill almost was equal to the Republicans, also will spend more than $250,000 in broadcasting Governor Roosevelt, A1 Smith and others. President Hoover’s Detroit speech tonight will be carried over 111 stations at a cost of about $30,000, or $5 a lyord, if his speech runs 6,000 words.

were distributed "no doubt with the sanction of the Republican national commmittee. The letter was made public by the committee, and Deery, although expressing surprise that the letter had been revealed, said in his opinion the act of conspiring to cause persons to lose their votes because of mutiliation could be regarded an election fraud and subject to United States grand jury investigation. When informed of the national committee’s announcement, Farley, in session here -with state Democratic leaders, described mailing of the cards as a "despicable attempt to get the loyal followers of Smith to vote against Roosevelt.” He declined to state what action the national committee would take.

TROOPS AGAIN RULEJPRISON Canadian Revolt Crushed, General Announces. By United Press KINGSTON, Ontario, Oct. 22. Brigadier-General D. M. Ormond, superintendent of dominion prisons, announced today that the Kingston penitentiary revolt had been suppressed. Heavily armed troops remained on duty inside the walls, however. Army lorries, loaded v’ith supplies for the “garrison,” continued to rumble through Kingston’s streets towards the huge prison. General Ormond led correspondents through parts of the great gray pile to prove that all was peaceful within and that 210 mutinous convicts again were under the discipline which they have attempted to throw off in repeated riots. It was considered significant, however, that General Ormond did not take press representatives through the main corridors where the rioting was believed to have taken place.

How the Market Opened

BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Oct. 22.—The stock market displayed a steadier tone at the outset today, following Friday’s severe reaction that brought the list down 1 to 5 points. Trading continued dull. Support was forthcoming for United States Steel and it rose Vi point to 35Vi. The preferred, however, declined a point to 73. Cautious traders sold in advance of the directors meeting Tuesday when the dividend is due to be considered. Bethlehem Steel declined %,to 16V4. Railroad shares were mixed, but were steadier than in the previous session. They resisted selling in the early trading. American Telephone opened at 102, up Vs. Western Union rose to 27%, up l!s. Utilities generally were fractionally under the previous close. General Motors opened 2,000 shares at 12 Vi, off %. The issue declined more than a point and it was believed the stock had discounted the company’s adverse report for the September quarter, which showed a net loss equivalent to 16 cents a common share.

Purdue at Evanston Stadium to Battle Wildcats; I. U. at Chicago. With Purdue and Indiana engaged in Big Ten “key games” on foreign fronts, and Notre Dame apparently, scheduled for another “romp,” Hoosier collegiate football interest today centered on CrawT fordsville, where Butler and Wabash renew their old feud. These rivals annually stage a battle royal, and is their ten meetings since 1921, neither has been able to score more than two touchdowns in any game. Seven decisions have gone to Butler, two to the Little Giants, and the 1925 fray was a draw. Last year’s victory was captured by Butler, 13 to 0. Franklin's Grizzlies celebrated home-coming by taking on the faststepping Ball State pastimers, and the outcome was a toss-up. V De Pauw’s Underdog De Pauw, handicapped by an inexperienced line, was the underdog in its home-coming struggle with Ohio Wesleyan. Rose Poly was a top heavy choice at Evansville, Earlham pitted its high-power passing attack against Hanover’s power at Hanover, and Valparaiso’s eleven held a decided edge over St. Viator at Valpo. Purdue’s unbeaten Boilermakers, battered in bruising close-score struggles with Minnesota and Wisconsin, staked its Big Ten championship hopes against Northwestern at Evanston in today’s outstanding midwestern game.

Indiana at Chicago While Purdue is a slight favorite, a Wildcat victory hardly could be called an upset. Second in Big Ten importance was the Chicago-Indiana rivalry affair at the Midway, where the Crimson eleven hoped to keep its conference slate clean against A. A. Stagg’s forty-first Maroon machine, getitng its first conference test. Notre Dame’s point-a-minute machine took on Carnegie Tech, Minnesota invaded lowa, and Michigan entertained Illinois in other important frays.

BY HENRY F. MISSELWITZ United Press Staff Correspondent ABOARD PRESIDENT HOOVER'S SPECIAL TRAIN EN ROUTE TO DETROIT, Oct. 22. President Hoover carried his fight for re-election through the coal and steel districts into industrial Detroit today, and a “White House executive office on wheels” went along to help draft the message tonight, which may discuss the bonus and “beer for revenue.” The President planned fourteen addresses across West Virginia and Ohio before climaxing his third invasion of this “doubtful area” with a fighting message expected to answer Franklin D. Roosevelt’s latest proposals and attacks on Republican policies. His first speech today was at the stadium in Charleston, W. Va. His last in Detroit tonight was to be delivered from the same platform from which he made a winning fight against the soldiers bonus in the American Legion convention a year ago. Speech Is Uncompleted He was expected to renew his attack on the bonus. He was expected to denounce the Democratic presidential candidate’s rejection of a bonus "until there is a surplus in the treasury” as “evasive.” He was expected to review administration relief policies. The President worked until gthe last minute, as usual, on his address. He spent the greater part of every day this week on the Detroit message, and continued his labors today aboard the train, his aids reported. The presence of French Strother, and other members of the White House executive office on the train, indicated the speech was far from ready when the President left Washington. Strother, former magazine editor and fiction writer, always goes over the final copy of Mr. Hoover’s addresses.

Mrs. Hoover in Party The President’s party included; Mrs. Hoover, Postmaster-General Walter E. Brown; Treasury Secretary Ferry K. Heath; Lawrence Richey and Theodore G. Joslin, secretaries to the President; Strother, Captain Joel T. Boone, U. S. N., the White House physician; Miss Mildred Hall, secretary to Mrs. Hoover; Miss Dorothy Eastman and Miss Myra McGrath, White House stenographers; United States secret service operatives, newspaper men and photographers. Four representatives of the Republican national committee, headed by James L. West, publicity man, were along. Their job is to get the chief executive’s speech prepared for the newspaper correspondents. DEADLINE IS NEAR Time’s nearly up!

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.—The Reconstruction Finance Corporation today denied ‘‘emphatically and definitely” that state authorities in Minnesota had been ordered to stop farmers picketing before any loans would be granted for work relief in that state. A report to this effect reached Washington from Minnesota, where farmers are picketing the highways to prevent produce from reaching the market, and where organized groups of farmers are electing representatives to go to Washington by truck early in December to present demands to the administration and to eongress. The farmers’ march is scheduled for Dec. 7 to 10.

“ M OST Americans,” he said, seem to think the first duty of man is to gang Hoover and get rid of him. Hoover didn't make this depression. He isn’t big enough. “The capitalist system has collapsed. There was nothing Hoover could do to stop it. Nothing Roosevelt will do will save it. “Hee-haw, we’re coming back.” say the Democrats. That’s the future for America for the next four years.”

BY RAYMOND CLAPPER United Press Staff Correspondent ABOARD ROOSEVELT SPECIAL TRAIN, EN ROUTE LOUISVILLE, Oct. 22. Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt carried his Democratic presidential campaign today into the friendly borderland of the Mason and Dixon line, meeting with ridicule and satire a Republican counter attack he said was based on fear of panic. The Democratic candidate swung on through Kentucky and Tennessee today with pledges left behind in addresses at Springfield, 111., and St. Louis, to give relief to American farmers and protect the nation’s security holders. He combined the outline of his policy with scathing ridicule of what he termed efforts by the Republican leadership including President Hoover and Ex-President Coolidge to frighten the nation with a charge that panic would follow a Democratic victory. Speaks at Louisville Today He termed the attempt a wornout stage trick patented by Mark Hanna. Governor Roosevelt scheduled his first major stop today at Louisville, Ky., where an address was planned shortly before noon. Other brief appearances were scheduled, including ones at Lebanon and Corbin, Ky. He was to reach Knoxville, Ky., at 9 p. m. It could be stated today without question that Governor Roosevelt firmly is convinced his election is certain. What he desires now is that his party workers do not become overconfident. Roosevelt’s St. Louis address, delivered before an audience of 10,000 at the Coliseum, contained an outline of his policy for protection of investors and placed the blame for many losses especially those of holders of foreign bonds, at the door of Hoover and Coolidge administrations. Assails G. O. P. Policies Eight classes of securities were discussed by the nominee, who cited measures he would take to protect against raids by “unscrupulous financiers.” The classes of securities named were: Federal obligations, state obligations, municipal bonds, foreign obligations, domestic industrial bonds, public utility obligations, railroads, real estate and farm mortgages. Roosevelt was most bitter in his criticism of the administration policies in regard to foreign financing and domestic public utilities. He mentioned the crash of the Insull utilities. “I ask the simple question,” said Roosevelt. “What leadership has the President exerted toward the elimination of the type of abuoe which resulted in the Insull failure?” “The indifference of the present administration has permitted the savings of thousands of our citizens to be swallowed up and lost for all time.” ‘Unsavory U. S. Chapter’ He described the record of foreign bond issues as “an unsavory chapter in American finance.” “These bonds,” he said, “4n large part directly are teh fruit of a disastrous policy pursued by the present administration in Washington —none other, if you please, than, the policy of lending to backward and crippled nations. “My job will be to prevent a recurence of this incident and to prevent the hard-earned dollars of American investors from being frittered away in foreign fields, with a profit flowing only to certain international financiers whose greed is greater than their patriotism.”

Roosevelt spoke for most rigid economy In federal, state and municipal government to protect their obligations from ever defualting on interest or principal.
