NEW ENGLAND HEARS APPEAL OF ROOSEVELT .Nominee Invades Maine to Spur Ballot Swing to Ticket. (Continued From Pane One) John, are students. After a leisurely breakfast, he departed at 7:45 for the northeast. Tonight, Roosevelt will make one of his major campaign utterances in Boston. The Governor plans to'remain in Boston until Tuesday morning when he will enter Rhode Island and Connecticut, He will not deliver any speeches in those two states, however, but go directly to his home at Hyde Park, N. Y„ remaining there for the night. Receives Progressives The route through Rhode Island and Connecticut calls for appearances at Providence and Woonsocket R. I.; Hartford, Winstead and Canaan, Conn. During his week-end in historic Groton, Roosevelt received a delegation of Massachusetts progressives led by Dr. Felix Frankfurter of Harvard university. He extolled the progressives of both parties as the force that will bring solutidn to the economic problems of the day. After attacking the Hoover administration as a “failure in this crisis,” the Governor added that "the solution will come from men, who, although they d.ffer on parties, have the same ideas on govemJPhient.” Hoover Is Assailed Roosevelt’s remarks came aftei Frankfurter read a prepared statement which declared that “President Hoover denies all responsibility for the terrible plight we find ourselves. Nothing done by him and nothing left undone, so he insists, w'ould have averted any of our miseries. “In effect, Mr. Hoover attributes our unparalleled economic and social dislocation, and their dreadful consequences in the lives of men and women and the generation to r come, to inscrutable fate and the foreigner. “He pleads governmental impotence. but seeks re-election on the slogan, he kept us out of w'orse.” To Talk With Smith When Roosevelt returns to Hyde Park Tuesday night he will have been in every one of the New England states on this trip, which began at noon Saturday. He entered Vermont an hour after leaving Albany. From Vermont he went into Massachusetts.

Roosevelt plans to return to Hyde Park for Sunday and Monday. On election day, he will cast his ballot in that little Hudson river valley community and then go back to New York for the returns. Win or lose, it was reported that Governor would make an early trip to Warm Springs, Ga., for several days, to rest.
Law Adamant Church Forgives Poor Box Thieves; Court Refuses to Free Pair.
Although church officials were willing to forgive them, the law exacted its penalty today from two youths who stole a poor box and its contents from St. John's Catholic church. However, Thomas E. Garvin, criminal judge pro tern., was * lenient because of the “gracious and Christian attitude” of the church's officials. He sentenced the youths to the state farm, for a year each, instead of prison. The youths. Leon Selby, 21, of 503 Coffey street, and Eugene Miller, 22, of 304 Arbor avenue, admitted stealing the box the night of Sept. 17 while “under the influence of liquor.” They confessed breaking the box and securing $5 in change. The late Monsignor Francis H. Gavisk. before his death a few days ago, had recommended a "good kick in the pants,” rather than prison. Father Gavisk had seen the pair ' in the church the night of the theft but did not drive them out, Father Sullivan of St. John's church, told the court. “He did not want to prosecute them,” Father Sullivan declared. When the youths pleaded “We never would have done such a thing had we been sober,” Garvin said: “Those who voluntarily get drunk are liable, under the law, for what they do. *1 can't think of anything worse than this theft, a disregard for things sacred. “I have high regard for the <church officials and their requests, out the law also gives me a duty in this case,” Garvin concluded.

HOOVER MAKES BID FOR VARE HELPJ TRIPBig Task on Stump Tour Is Pacification of Philadelphia Boss. (Continued From Page One) question for political party purposes, whether they be Democratic or Re- j publican.” The President again denounced the Democratic tariff policy and promised maintenance of a protective tariff if returned to office for another four years. On his way to the rally that will mark the end of his eastern drive,
he will cross four states, Maryland, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, slashing at his opponent’s economic p ronouncements in a series of eight speeches. “One of the hottest speeches o his campaign,” as * well as “the most important,” was the way in which Republican party lead-
j
Vare
ers in Washington described the address the chief executive is to deliver in New York. Mr. Hoover this afternoon will try to heal the biggest sore spot in the Republican party. He will try to pacify William S. Vare, indifferent Philadelphia boss, and arouse the enthusiasm of the biggest Republican municipal machine for his candidacy. The Republican is out to win 110 electoral votes during the day, forty-seven in New York and thirtysix in Pennsylvania, which absolutely are essential, his advisers say, if he is to overcome the apparent lead of Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt. Needs Vare’s Support In addition he will try to capture sixteen votes in New Jersey, eight in Maryland and three in Delaware. Republican presidents seldom have found it necessary to appeal for Pennsylvania votes, but this year every poll has given Roosevelt the edge. Without customary majority of 200,000 or more from the Philadelphia organization G. O. P. bosses admit Pennsylvania is lost. To obtain this majority it has become necessary for Hoover and Vare to go through the motions of a reconciliation. Vare will introduce the President at a Republican rally during the day in Philadelphia, where Mr. Hoover will remain thirty minutes. Vare’s indifference to Hoover dates back to his rejection by the senate because of excessive campaign expenditures. Because he supported Mr. Hoover at Kansas City lour years ago before Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon could make up his mind to do so, Vare believed Mr. Hoover should have tried to prevent the action of the senate, but Hoover would not interfere, and, subsequently, the administration ignored Vare’s patronage recommendations. Big Progressive Revolt Within the last few weeks it became necessary for Senator David Reed to carry an olive branch to Vare from the White House. Political observers are awaking to the fact that the progressive revolt against Mr. Hoover and the - pat Republican organization of 1932, though less spectacular, is as wiaespread as the Bull Moose movement headed by Theodore Roosevelt in 1912, against President Taft. Then, as now, independents in public office throughout the country were insurging against reactionary influences inside their party.

Hours of Intense Labor Spent on Campaign Talks
(Copyright, 1932. by United Press) BEHIND the thousands of words, with which President Herbert Hoover and his Democratic rival. Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, are bombarding one another, are hours of intense labor. President Hoover prepares his speeches in the Lincoln study at the White House. He revises and edits a dozen times, and works early and late. Roosevelt writes his in long hand, but occasionally dictates. He prepares his speeches only three or four days in advance of delivery. The following stories tell how each candidate works.
Herbert Hoover
He revises, edits, rewrites, and then revises some more. He is never satisfied. Up to the very last moment when he is actually on the platform, he likely is to make a change of a word or a phrase. Washington correspondents call him the world’s champion reviser. Mostly, he prepares his speeches in the Lincoln study of the White House. His immediate assistant is French Strother, editor, author, and novelist?, who develops ideas given him by the President. They are typed and given back to Mr. Hoover, who gets to work on them with a blue pencil. He takes his ideas from every one he talks to about the subjects he wants to discuss. Treasury Secretary Mills and Postmaster-Gen-eral Walter Brown sometimes suggest subjects, but other menvbers of the cabinet merely answer the questions the President asks ■them. He works on his speeches early and late. Even on the train bearing him to the place of address, he still is revising and editing. Because of this, his speeches often are late in being delivered to the press.
Proud ‘Sunbeam,’ Queen of White River, Burned
Old Steamboat Is Victim of Halloween Vandals in Small Lagoon. Derelict and half-sunken by the ravages of time, the steamboat Sunbeam, which for twenty-five years plied the waters of White river north of Indianapolis, was burned to the water’s edge Sunday night. Proud still of he.- record as ‘•queen’’ of the river, although long since claimed by Davy Jones, the Sunbeam perished in true marine style when a Halloween vandal lighted a small fire under her after stairs. For nearly five years the Sunbeam lay in a lagoon a short distance north of Broad Ripple park, her bottom rotting gradually, although the superstructure, a main and top deck, remained intact. Even after her gear was stolen by vandals, the Sunbeam still retained her nautical dignity, despite storm and tide. Her decks, even though listing, were a popular summer gathering place for picnickers and river “adventurers.” The tiller was gone, her bell and brass horn were removed by souvenir collectors, and her cabin was dismantled, but the Sunbeam still was a proud ship to veterans of the river. Until five years ago a ride on the Boy, 7, Killed by Truck By United Press COLUMBUS, Ind., Oct. 31.—Injuries suffered by Gerald Kreuzer, 7, when he ran into the path of a truck before his home at Westport, caused his death in a hospital here Sunday night. The mother, Mrs. Ernest Kreuzer, survives.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Polished sentences and concise phrases come readily to him. Members of his "brain trust"— Professor Raymond Moley, Columbia university; A. A. Berle, also of Columbia; Samuel Roseman, New York state supreme court justice, and Senator Key Pittman—work up material and give advice on political and economic questions. The actual writing he does himself. Many of his addresses are written in long hand, stenographers getting this rough copy for typing. The typewritten copy hej edits, but revises very little. Sometimes he will rewrite the entire speech. Oftentimes he dictates, but his friends believe his long hand speeches are best. He is a hard worker, often working until the early hours. He usually begins preparation of a speech three or four days before delivery. He likes to keep his speeches to himself until the last minute, to give himself the advantage of bringing answers to political opponents up to the last minute. His “brain trust” resent any implications that they write his speeches. They submit their reports in writing, and he combines them in Rooseveltian style. Sometimes he lifts a paragraph or two, but never more.
Sunbeam was a high spot for Sunday outing parties. She sported an orchestra, a captain, an engineer and a crew—even was berthed at a special wharf at Broad Ripple park landing. Then the Sunbeam’s popularity dimmed and her paddle wheels ceased to beat water of the channel, and she was ordered dismantled by her owner, Denny Sullivan, now of Victoria, Tex.

GENERAL U. S. GAIN CLAIMED IN EMPLOYMENT Upward Trend Reported by Doak; Notes ‘Turn for Better/ By United Press WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.—A general increase in employment in the United States last month is reported by the labor department. Secretary James Doak made public a survey on the United States employment service showing an upward trend in employment in manufacturing establishments, textile industries, boot and shoe factories, coal mines, railroad shops, rayon mills, and agricultural industries. Only in the iron and steel industry was there no material improvement, according to the report. However, it was said, “a turn for the better was, noted” in this field at the end of September. “Under the stimulus of funds made available by the emergency relief and construction act,” the report said, "there was a considerable increase in the volume of highway and bridge construction which provided employment for thousands of additional men.” Thirty-three states reported they had more than 260,000 men engaged on this type of work, and numerous additional contracts were let during the month. Private and commercial building was reported to have remained at a low level. NAB FUGITIVE SUSPECT City Man Said to Be Owner of Car Shot at by Police. William Camden, 21, of 1145 Edgecombe avenue, said to be the owner of an automobile from which Crawfordsville police shot tires last week, was arrested here today as a fugitive and will be returned to Crawfordsville for trial. Camden and a companion, Claude Elflager, 2010 Mabel street, are wanted as suspects in a filling station burglary, according to Crawfordsville police. Elflager was injured slightly when the automobile crashed into a pole following the shooting. Concert to Be Given at “Y” Special concert will be given Wednesday night in the central branch Y. M. C.
