Hamilton. Denies G. 0. P. Primary ‘Scheme’
WASHINGTON, Aug. 25 (U. P.) — Chairman John D. M. Hamilton of the Republican National Committee called upon Republicans today to keep out of Democratic primaries because G. O. P. prospects “are enhanced by. the nomination’ of New Deal Democrats this year.” . Issued at a press conference, his statement, he said, was an answer to President Roosevelt's assertion that the practice of voters of one party entering the primary of another was a violation of “political morality.” Mr. -Hamilton denied that any Republicans had participated in Democratic primaries because of requests from national headquariers or because of “any political scheme.” “If any Republicans have voted in Democratic primaries,” he said, “it is because they: sincerely believed that the best interests of the country would be ‘served by the defeat of candidates sponsored by the President . . . it is our desire that Republicans keep out of Democratic primaries . . .”

Wadsworth to Open GO. P. Congressional Campaign
By LEE G. MILLER _Times Special Writer
WASHINGTON, .Aug. .25..—.On Saturday afternoon at 3 p.m. (Indianapolis Time) a gentleman farmer from upstate New York will address some thousands of Midwest-
ern Republicans at a “cornfield con-
fererice” near Washington, Ind., and therewith the G. O. P. campaign to multiply its membership in Congress will be launched. The speaker will be Rep. James Ww. Wadsworth, Liberty Leaguer, former Senator, foe of regimentation and red ink and perennial dark horse in Presidential years. ‘He may be expected to lambast the New Deal thoroughly and he may also scold the Republicans themselves. For in the past he has taken his party to task for evasion and pussyfooting. If Mr. Wadsworth’s address is received favorably, his name is bound to be mentioned often between now and 1940 for a place on the party's national ticket. But his immediate
concern is the recapture of congres-,,
sional seats in the nation’s breadbasket. Today, Indiana, Illinois, Jowa and Ohio Demcorats hold 58 House seats against 13 occupied by Republicans. Born to Purple Jim Wadsworth was born to the
purple 61 years ago at Geneseo, in western New York, where he still lives in the big brick house built by his great-grandfather and superintends the farming and grazing of an ancestral holding said to exceed 10,000 acres. As a boy he attended fashionable St. Mark’s School. Soon after his graduation from Yale in ’98 he enlisted as a field artillery private for the Spanish-American War, during which he saw service in Puerto Rico. After the war he took up the management of his father’s farm and herds, and in 1902 he married a daughter of John Hay, then Secre-
Politics, in which his family long had been active in New York State, soon claimed him. He was elected to the State Assembly in 1904 and served for six years, five of them as speaker. There followed a Texas interlude, as manager of a vast ranch near Paloduro, until public affairs, this time in a larger arena, lured him back te run for the U. S. Senate against James W. Gerard. This was in 1914. He won, and

Rep. James Wadsworth again in 1920. But when he sought a third term, in ‘26, his forthright advocacy of the repeal of prohibition ended his Senate career. A Republican dry, running as an independent split the G. O. P. vote
and Robert F. Wagner, Democrat, walked off with the toga.
Counsel Is Sought Six years later, in the face of the Roosevelt landslide of ’32, he was elected to the House, where he has served ever since—a popular, urbane member whose counsel is prized by
his Republican colleagues and whose infrequent speeches on the floor win a close attention which is uncommon in. that chamber. As the New Deal began to unfold, he was among the first to challenge it. He fought AAA and NRA, relief
and farm legislation, monetary and |
stock-exchange and reciprocal-tarift bills. He voted for the Economy Act, and he has supported nationaldefense expenditures. Although he may grow ei in lamenting what he ca the “rollicking, boyish ier Bint of President Roosevelt, and in singing the praises of the 10th Amendment (states’ rights), he usually avoids the shrillness of some of his more flamboyant colleagues.

Present campaign plans call for a series of Congressional district rallies to be conducted under sponsorship of the Indiana Young Democrats. Leaders said these meetings «would concentrate the’ fire” and probably would be more effective than a scattered series of. small county rallies. The first district rally is expected to be held the second week of September, and meetings of this type are to be continued until a rally has been held in each district,

‘RICHMOND, Aug. 25 (U. P)— Senator Minton defended the methods and aims of ‘the Senate Lobby Committee in an address be-
| fore: the Lions and. Riwanis' Clubs

furnish Congress and ‘the ‘people with a true picture of what lies be-
‘hind the floods of propaganda and ||’

That is not true: It has been developed and funetions to guard these rights against interests which would take them for their own personal use.”
