ROOSEVELT TO HIT CLIMAX IN DRIVETONIGHT Democratic Candidate to Make Final Appeal at Madison Square Garden. (Continned from Pare One) that the nation narrowly avoided going off the gold standard was “a libel on the credit of the United States,'" and said that no adequate answer yet had been made to the recent speech of Senator Carter Glass, who, he asserted, had shown the unsoundnass of the President's declaration. •Replying to Republican claims that the Democratic party favored inflation, Roosevelt said that the party’s platform specifically declared for a sound currency at all hazards. • The declaration of President Hoover that he “stood by every word” of his 1928 address at Palo Alto, Cal., regarding the ending of poverty, the Governor characterized as “the most surprising statement” ever made by man. Promise Called Absurd “Certainly, I subscribe,’’ he said, “to the ideal expressed by President Hoover in his speech at Madison Square Garden Monday night. But we do not subscribe to the absurd promise of candidate Hoover in 1928.” Regarding the tariff, Governor Roosevelt discussed the operation of the tariff commission in these 1 words: “During two years, President Hoover’s tariff commission has investigated duties upon only seventy-three commodities—seventy-three out oi many thousands. Asa result, eighteen schedules were reduced and thirteen were increased, and it is worth noting that among the articles investigated the commission has busied itself with complete investigation into pipe organs, peppers, egg plants and bicycle bells. “It Is worth noting, too that a careful estimate shows that, at the present magnificent rate of progress, President Hoover’s tariff commission will complete its examination oi schedules and report on them by the year 2,005. Cut Can Be Made . Concerning reduction of governmental expenditures, Roosevelt said: . “At Pittsburgh, I stated there must be a reduction in the cost of’ government, and set forth in detail the means by which it could be accomplished. In reply, the President states it can not be done. . “The people of America demand reduction of federal expenditure. And that can be accomplished only by reducing the expenditures of the existing departments and by abolishing many useless commissions, bureaus and functions, and by consolidating many activities of the government.” -Former Governor Smith also attacked the problem of “waste in government," and scored the “extravagance and waste and duplication" in government affairs. "■“But,” he said, “Hoover himself, With the aid of a Republican con-! further bedeviled the sltua-! tion by creating in four years, new departments and boards.” Al Gets Laugh -“At Madison Square Garden,” Smith continued, “the President made the extraordinary statement that if we did anything to the tariff, the churches, the schools, and the hospitals would decay and grass would grow on the principal streets of our great city. “So what do you think I did about it? I immediately made arrangements for a putting green.” ~Smith attacked the President's Statement on his prohibition stand ip subsequent paragraphs of his speech. RATTLESNAKE PLAYMATE Baby Is Rescued from Peril of Dangerous ret. By JfEA Service MIAMI, Fla., Nov. s.—Betty Jean Was playing on the porch recently and very much pleased that her nurse had left her for a few minutes. .“Isn’t that just the cutest, wiggiiest little thing crawling toward me,” thought little Betty Jean. . Just then nurse came out and let out a shriek that brought Fordham Gheeseborough, 30. to the scene. .He killed a rattlesnake the girl was playing with.

Bet You! Do you think Franklin D. Roosevelt is as good as “in?” If you do, you share the convictions behind $4,000 worth of Indianapolis money which is in the hands of a local betting commissioner to be wagered to $2,000 that the Democratic nominee is elected President of the United States Tuesday. An Indianapolis man returning here Thursday from Pittsburgh asserted today there is an offer posted in a Pittsburgh place where many wagers are made, to bet 2 to 1 that Roosevelt carries Pennsylvania, regarded as one of the strongest Republican states.

BACK PLAN TO CENTRALIZE AID Federation Advocates Poor Relief Headquarters. Approval was given a plan for establishing a central office for city I?oor relief work at a meeting of the Indianapolis Federation of Community Civic Clubs in the Spink Arms Friday night. A committee to direct establishment of central headquarters will be appointed soon by E. O. Snethen, federation president. The plan was suggested by R. E. Mitchell, who asserted that the arrangement would prevent relief work duplication and simplify operation of charitable organizations. Criticism was directed at the activity of Miss Hannah Noone, township trustee, in the distribution of poor relief baskets. J. Ed Burke, south side civic leader, charged that the baskets cost taxpayers from $2 to $3, but represent a value less than $1.50. Poor relief work under direction of the trustee is complicated by polities, Burke charged. A letter from Mrs. Florence Stone regarding the Flower Mission hospital for tuberculosis patients, in which the necessity for the institution was cited, was referred to a committee. The federation has approved the plan of the mission constructing the hospital and the city maintaining it. CONVICT CONDUCTS BIG BUSINESS IN PRISON And When He Escapes He Takes at Least $4,000 Cash Along. By United Press CANON CITY, Colo., Nov. 5. When Lenine Gross, the merchant prince of prisoners, went “over the hill from the Colorado state penitentiary, he took big business with him. In 1929 Gross set up a radio business within the prison. He bought, sold and repaired radios— for a sum. The radio business was the forerunner of a chain of “stores” within the prison walls. Gross was the owner and proprietor of the inmate canteen and the prison curio shop. He also had the concessions at the soda springs, a tourist stopping place. In all his ventures Gross took in an average of $2,000 a month. He had credit of SIO,OOO and at one time used it to the extent of $6,000. He had but little overhead, sold on a volume basis, and when he escaped from a guard, who had taken him to Pueblo on a “business tip,” it is believed Gross had at least $4,000 in cash on his person. ‘LADY LUCK’ DESERTS Rancher Gets Ticket for Parking While Home Is Being Robbed.

VAN NUYS GIVEN ; GREAT OVATION BY HOME FOLKS Senate Candidate Airs His Clear-Cut Stand, Tells 6-Point Program. (Continued from Page One) ent (Senator James E. WatsonL | “In the event of my election I ! shall introduce a bill and work un- ! tiringly for its passage which will I make it a penitentiary offense to i threaten a man with loss of his job | for political purposes.” Pleads for Veteran Reiterating his plan to give federal aid to former soldiers, he told of an instance where a veteran, out of work, declared that he had used his gun for his country and he would not hesitate to use it again for food for his child, “You are not going to make highwaymen out of the veterans of the World war if my voice and my vote can prevent it,” he declared. Van Nuys said that he was proud of the Democratic platform which stands for “old-age pensions and unemployment unsecurity.” “I also hope to have the opportunity to join with Senator Norris and other progressive Democratic and Republican leaders in the senate in their efforts to break the grasp of the power trust. Allied With Trust “That the President has lost none of his alliances with this trust, best, is evidenced by the personnel of the federal power commission which he appointed. “In his Indianapolis speech, Mr, Hoover claimed all credit for enactment by congress of the law providing for reorganization of the federal power commission. Asa matter of fact, he virtually nullified the law by packing the commission with i men known to be in complete sympathy with the power trust and its program.”
