BEVERIDGE SR. AHEAD OF TIME. SAY DEMOCRATS Late Senator Revealed as ‘New Dealer’ in 1912 Keynote Speech. H*t Tim'a Sprrutl WASHINGTON. Sept. 18—That the late Senator Albert J. Beveridge of Indiana was a New Dealer twenty years in advance of his time" is the contention of certain Democrats here. They cite his keynote speech at the Progressive party convention of 1912 to prove their point. That speech bore the title. “Pass Prosperity Around,” and contained the following New Deal phraseology: “We stand for a nobler America. We stand for an undivided nation. We stand for a broader liberty, a fuller Justice. We stand for social brotherhood as against savage individualism. We stand for an intelligent co-operation instead of a reckless competition. We stand for mutual helpfulness Instead of mutual hatred. We stand for equal rights as a fact of life instead of a catch-word of politics. We stand for the rule of the people as a practical truth instead of a meaningless pretense. We stand for a representative government that represents the people. We battle for the actual rights of man.

“Enough for Everybody” “For the problems which America faces today are economic and national. They have to do with a more just distribution of prosperity. They concern the living of the people. “We have more than enough to supply every human being beneath the flag. There ought not to be in this republic a single day of bad business, a single unemployed workman, a single unfed child. “We mean to remedy these conditions. We mean not only to make prosperity steady, but to give to the many who earn it a just share of that prosperity instead of helping the few who do not it to take an unjust share. •‘Constitution Living Thing” “The Progressive motto is ‘Pass Prosperity Around .” Then, as now the fight against child labor, low wages and unemployment was being challenged on constitutional grounds and the great Hoosier author-statesman had this to say about that: “The Progressive party believes that the Constitution is a living thing, growing with the people's growth, strengthening with the people’s strength, aiding the people in their struggle for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, permitting the people to meet all their needs as conditions change. End Human Abuses “From certain sources we hear preachments about the danger of our reforms to American institutions. What is the purpose . f American institutions? Why was this republic established? What does the flag stand for? What do these things mean? “They mean that the people shall be free to correct human abuses. “They mean thftr men. women and children shall not be denied the opportunity to grow stronger and nobler. “They mean that the people shall have the power to make our land each day a better place to live in.”

Modernize Your Home BY ROGER B. WHITMAN •

When a wood shingle roof gives out, it usually is either because the I shingles are of a quality that warps and curls, or the nails go rusty. Leaks from curled shingles can be closed by splitting the shingles to flatten them and nailing the loose parts with copper or other rustproof nails driven through the exposed ends. Leakage through splits can be closed by slipping pieces of tar paper underneath and dabbing them with roofing cement. Missing shingles can be replaced and nailed in the same way. A roof that is too far gone for these repars should be replaced, wlych is not as expensive and messy a job as it used to be. Saves Labor, Avoids Dirt In the past, the job began with tearing off the old roof. Now it is considered much better to put the new roof on top of the old one. In preparation for the new roof, old shingles that are curled are flattened by splitting: the loose parts are nailed and missing shingles replaced. The old shingles along all edges of the roof are cut back for two inches, and the spaces so made are filled with strips of wood the thickness of the old roofing. If the new roofing is to be stiff, like wood shingles, asbestos-cement shingles, or slate, it is laid just as R)r anew roof, but with nails long enough to go through the old roofing and into the woodwork beneatlv. Dab With Cement Slate-covered asphalt shingles makes a good job, especially if a dab of roofing cement is put under the end of each to stick it to the shingle below. Some of these prepared shingles are cut in forms to interlock, so that, in holding each other down, they do not ruffle in a wind. ’ No attention need be paid to rotted places in the old roof, for rotting and the destroying effect of fungus will stop as the shingles dry out under the new roof.

The life and service of wood shingles depend on the way they are cut. Cheaper grades of shingles are cut from stumps and other waste wood, and with the grain flat with the surfaces. Such shingles can be expected to curl. Nails should be proof against rusting: it is very poor economy to save money on them, for the whole roof will go should they give out.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

LOTTERY ASKED BY LA GUARDIA AS RELIEF STEP Measure Sponsoring Gambling One of Three Before Aldermen. By United Pres* NEW YORK, Sept. 18.—A city lottery, first in the modern United States; a city income tax and a gross tax on business receipts were authorized in emergency unemployment relief bills which the board of aldermen was expected to pass today at the request of Fiorello H. La Guardia, fusion mayor. Business men protested so strongly against a proposed gross buiness receipts tax of one-half of 1 per cent that Mayor La Guardia, after suspending cash unemployment relief payments Saturday, resumed them simultanoeusly with his presentation of the new program. The new receipts tax, to which business leaders have agreed, will be one-tenth of 1 per cent, levied on grass receipts of business and professional men and corporations of more than $15,000. The income tax will be 15 per cent of the amount paid in federal income tax, but gross receipt payments to the city will be deductible. As for the lottery, it is proposed that it shall be conducted through a specially organized municipal relief society. Any one may become a member on payment of a sum to be fixed. After the membership is completed lots will be drawn for officers. Salaries specified for the “officers” would correspond to prizes of an ordinary lottery. There seemed some question as to the constitutionality of the proposal, and it was planned to seek a test as soon as possible. Tens of thousands of New Yorkers subscribe to the Irish hospitals and other foreign sweepstakes. Mr. La Guardia refused to estimate what any of the three tax measures would bring, but some other sources figured the lottery alone might bring in more than $10,000,000.* Two Die in Plane Plunge By United Press BALTIMORE, Sept. 18.—Two Baltimore men fell to their death here late yesterday when the wings of an airplane in which they were stunting collapsed. The dead were Charles Maurer and James Yost.
