LABOR LEAGUE LAUNCHES FALL ELECTION DRIVE
Convention Called Sept. 25 For C. I. 0. Affiliate by Alex Gordon.
. Labor’s Nonpartisan: League of Indiana will hold its third annual convention Sunday, Sept. 25, at the Claypool Hotel, Alex E. Gordon, League chairman, announced today. The convention call, mailed today, is addressed to “workers, farmers . the people of Indiana.” It states, in part: “From its beginning, the League has given its wholehearted indorsement to the principles and policies of the New Deal, under the leadership of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, because it believes that they typify the objectives that the people of America want. “The League proposes to maintain, protect and strengthen the gains which have been made thus far through the New Deal—the Social Security Act, the National Labor Relations Act, the Wages and Hours Act and many other parts of the New Deal program that have brought the welfare of the American people to a higher point than ever before reached in the history of our country.
Holds Need Greatest Now
“The need for strengthening Labor’s Nonpartisan League and carrying forward its organization into every political subdivision of every state in the union is greater now than ever before. Tory interests and reactionary forces are carrying on a subversive and destructive campaign against the leader of the American people, Franklin D. Roosevelt. Their purpose is to destroy the gains that we have already won. “In the state of Indiana, Labor's Nonpartisan League must take the leadership in maintaining and strengthening the objectives already given us by President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Governor M. Clifford Townsend, by electing to office candidates who will carry out the progressive decisions and purposes of the New Deal. We recognize that this must be done in all branches of Government — State, County and municipal, as well as national.”

DETROIT, Aug. 20 (U. P.).—U. 8.
Immigration authorities tod ay.
sought a home for : 84-year-old Charley Clark, a man “without a country” except faraway England. Mr. Clark was staying temporarily at the immigration detention home | here, but officials hoped .he soon would be on his way back to Michigan City; Ind, Michigan City was not Mr. ‘Clark’s intended destination when he was stopped by . immigration officers Thursday night as he tried to enter Canada. They refused him entrance because he had only 80 cents, a ticket to Chatham, Ontario, and an avowed determination to reach Peterboro, Ontario, where he said his brother Frank lived. Immigration officials who wired Peterboro today discovered something Mr. Clark professed not to know—that his brother had died in
June, 1937, and that his sister-in-'
law did not want him at her home. Authorities immediately wrote Mr. Clark’s daughter, Mrs. Flor-' ence Jouch, in Michigan City, asking that she send money: for her
father’s transportation to her home,
where he was staying when he set out for Canada. If she refuses to
‘provide it, they said, the Immigra-
tion Department will appeal to the Welfare Department for funds. And if she refuses to permit Mr. Clark’s return, the Department will begin an involved process necessary to send Mr. Clark back to Englands his birthplace. =
