Asked if he thought “Communism is boring into the ranks of the New Deal,” Mr. Hamilton retorted: “Call it what you want; someer got hold of the Democratic
Testimony before the Dies Com- + mittee in Washington, he said, “certainly is interesting, as well ds in- © strietive.” Chairman Hamilton said the National Committee’s finances are “satisfactory,” although there is still . a deficit of $700,000 in the campaign fund. “We cut the deficit down about $600,000 last year,” he said, “but this year we have had to concen- - trate on expenses of the coming . campaign.” Laughs Off Vote Charge
“The state of our finances,” Mr. Frank commented with a grin, “ought to smoke out the Democratic theory that the G. O. P. is the party of the money bags.” Asked what he thought of Demo- _ cratic charges that Republicans had violated long-standing tradition by voting in large numbers in the Democratic primary in Idaho, Mr. Hamilton said: “Well, it looks like Mr. Roosevelf] has put his foot in it. The law which made it possible for Republicans to vote for Democrats in the Idaho primaries—if any did—was passed last year by a Democratic Legislature and was signed by a Democratic Governor. Maybe they planned it that way. Who knows.”
- Thinks ‘Purge’ Helpful
The national chairman declined to comment when asked if the candidacy of Raymond E. Ellis, G. O. P. senatorial fiominee, had been damaged by Republican support of Senator VanNuys before his reconciliation with the State Democratic organization. : He did say, however, that he was opposed to. Republicans coming to the support of Democratic candidates, whether New Dealers or not. He referred specifically to the Georgia situation, where the Republican State Chairman reportedly has been urging G. O. P. voters to’ support Senator Walter F. George, scheduled for defeat by President Roosevelt: for his anti-New Deal attitude. “I didn’t agree with Mr. Arnold's {the state chairman) tactics in Georgia and I wrote him a letter to that effect,” Mr. Hamliton said. In a brief interview when he arrived at Union Station this nmiorning, Mr. Hamilton declared President Roosevelt’s trip across the nation “hasn’t won any votes for the Democrats.” dent’s “purge” of anti-New Deal Democrats will react in favor of the Republican Party next fall.”

Two other recent murders, those of John rien and Harry L. Minor, who were shot to death on the street in June, also were attributed to gang vengeance against handbook robbers. The other eight slayings have not been explained. None of the killers has been captured.
Mr. Courtney started his raids last week. The raiders had destroyed only one or two establishments a day until yesterday when they swept into the “Loop” and invaded the State-Washington Club near State and Madison Sts., one of the busiest corners in the world.

Opposition to" the present method of nominating U. 8.
