Democrats “who will not tolerate

machine rule to join with us in

Addressing a County G. O. P. rally at 2222 Pleasant St. last night, the mayoralty candidate cited speeches of some Democrats in support of charges that “boss rule and machine politics are a challenge to every

conscientious citizen.” “This is not merely a partisan issue,” he declared. “It is a question of preserving our homes from the encroachment of high tax rates and the influence of vicious underworld forces which have fastened themselves upon our City and County Government. . “I am not blaming Democrats in general for the condition to which a few unscrupulous men have brought Marion County. In fact, I invite and urge all Democrats who will no longer tolerate such filthy machine rule to join with us in running the political gangsters out.”

Cites Statements

Mr. Wolff cited alleged statements made by Andrew Jacobs and Sheriff Otto Ray during the primary campaign. He said that Mr. Jacobs, who sought the Democratic nomination for Prosecutor in the primary, was quoted in the newspapers on April 1 as follows: “‘I have -indisputable evidence that gambling and vice flourish in the very face of those whose duty it is to stamp out this menace to the community.’ ” He asserted that Mr. Jacobs said on April 5: : “ ‘Indianapolis is under the reign of beer barons and vice lords.’ ” Mr. Wolff quoted Sheriff Ray, defeated in the primary race for the Mayor nomination, as saying on April 19: “I know something about the beer and whisky racket and what the Democratic bosses are making. It is from 50 to 200 thousand a year.” “In coming out and calling them political gangsters, I again have the support of the Democrats themselves,” Mr, Wolff added.

Cites Judge

Mr. Wolff then quoted Chalmers Schlosser, William Curry, whom he characterized as prominent Democrats, and Judge Clarence E. Weir, who, he said, was “another victim of the gang housecleaning.”

“William Curry,” he asserted, “said on April 29: ‘Hitler is a real piker compared with this bunch down at County headquarters.’

“Judge Weir said on April 26: ‘Boss control will be the only issue before the Democratic voters in the primary election. I urge that the Democratic voters refuse the slates prepared by the Democratic County organization headed by William E. Clauer.”” Mr. Wolff, declaring “this is a clearcut battle between right and wrong,” said: “The Republican .Party offers you a group of candidates unbound by any promises, not involved in any deals and not controlled by any bosses.” Haerle Speaks

Edwin Haerle, candidate for prosecutor, urged a “forward looking program of law enforcement free from State House control” at a meeting in the Speedway City School last night. “Racketeers and criminals must be driven from Marion County,” Mr. Haerle said. “The prosecutor's office should be conducted on a plane of citizenship first, and political affiliations and connections of those guilty of crime should have no consideration whatever. “I owe no allegiance to any polittical boss, nor will I be affected by

State House.”

Tucker Pledges G. 0. P. to Collective Bargaining

Times Special ANDERSON, Oct. 20.—“The Republican Party believes in collective

bargaining for the American worker but deplores the present imports of farm products that are glutting the market that should be served by the American farmer,” James Tucker, Republican nominee for Secretary of State, said here last night. “We believe that the State Government or any Government has no business taking sides in labor disputes either for labor or for capital, but it should see that each gets a fair and impartial hearing and that both get a square deal,” Mr. Tucker declared. Addressing a throng of workers and farmers, he said that the G. O. P. “deplored” an agricultural program based on scarcity. “The problem in this country, with 13 million underfed by the New Deal’s own admission, is not that of overproduction, but underproduction,” the nominee asserted. “Our party pledges,” he said, “that every function of the Government will be used to create proper distribution so that the farmer can open up a new market through those who are not now getting enough to eat. “It promises him that 86 million bushels of corn will not be shipped in to compete with him, free of

Jduty. I would like to call your at-

tention to the fact that, in 1937, the New Deal permitted more money to be sent out of this country to purchase agricultural products than was spent in the relief of the American farmer. “That has to stop.”

G. 0. P. Veterans Quiz VanNuys in Letter

In an open letter to Senator VanNuys, the Marion County Republican Veterans today asked the senior Senator to “explain” why he voted in 1933 “to deprive needy veterans and their families of disability benefits.” The letter, issued a few hours before the Senator's address at a meeting in Tomlinson Hall tonight, also asked why Senator VanNuys did not “demand a repeal of the vicious liquor racket.” It was signed by F. E. Livengood, Marion County Republican Veterans’ chairman. “As an independent candidate last spring,” the letter said, “you promised to expose certain corruption in the State House and said you would show a photostatic copy of the income tax return of a certain member of your party who made $140,000 last year. “Why, after receiving the nomination, did you suppress this information?” Raymond Demaree, Departmental Adjutant of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, last night criticized what he called “the rankly partisan attitude of members cf Congress” in a veterans’ meeting at 2023 S. Hight School Road.

Figure to Lose Wabash

The Democrats figure they will lose Wabash County by approximately 1000 votes, and they claim Rep. Griswold should run ahead of the ticket in Clinton County, a railroad center. Since Howard County is the home of Forrest Harness, the Republican

Congressional candidate, the 3000 majority which the Democrats have estimated they will have in that county may be high, it was said. According to Republicans, Mr. Harness has a good chance to win if farm prices continue to go down, if he splits the American Legion vote which heretofore has gone to a considerable extent to Rep. Griswold, and if the Townsend Pension Clubs continue to support him. Impartial observers place Rep. Griswold’s majority for the whole district between 2000 to 3000, and predict that the Congressional vote it was in 1936. in Grant County will be as close as The Marion municipal race, which finds Merrill (Jack) Edwards, former Mayor, running against Carl F. Barney, the G. O. P. incumbent who beat him in the last election by 241 votes, is attracting. wide interest and is expected to be close. Republicans also are conceded a strong chance to capture three County offices. At last night’s rally the Democrats held a torchlight parade around the Court House square and to the Armory with the Edwards Swing Band providing the music. The Republicans countered by sending their band around the square in a truck, and in place of vaudeville acts they engaged in mass singing under direction of Mrs. Merrill Davis, who brought a cheer leader’s technique to her work. Explains Labor Record While Arthur Viat, assistant State Labor Commissioner, was attacking Mr. Willis’ labor record in the Indiana House of Representatives in 1919 and 1921, Mr. Willis offered the following explanation at the Republican rally: “During my service in the State Legislature I represented a rural county, and at that time I may have voted against certain labor measures in the interest of my particular constituents. However, as a U. S. Senator, I would take into consideration the fact that I would be representing the entire citizenship of this State.” Mr. Willis said that it was to labor’s self-interest to aid in the return of profitable private enterprise, while adding that if capital, on the other hand, demands and receives more than its fair share, economic demoralization is bound to follow. “The working men and women of the United States, as well as the

Their partnership with industry and business envisioned through collective bargaining necessitates such action if it is to be effective. “To follow a program which does not bring these’objectives finds labor and labor leadership without the most essential item needed by them—<that of a prosperous labor. The Republican program has always been for profitable labor and prosperous business. It is the keystone of the party’s usefulness to the working men and women and such prosperity has characterized Republican Administrations and their policies. “Labor leadership has often reiterated that unemployment can be mastered only through the creation of work opportunities in private industry. It was learned tha’

any other course is but a APOISTY) makeshift. Government spending afiqrds but temporary relief instead of a remedy for this vexing problem of unemployment.” , Although he mentioned no labor organizations by name, Mr. Willis declared that “the people of the United States have too much respect for labor and labor leadership to have any doubts but that a peaceful solution will be found of the present problems.”. : "Mr. Willis described the New Deal as “economic nonsense ‘being expounded by a group of radicals,” and predicted national disaster ‘“4f the present trend toward dictatorship is continued.” z He showed his audience rag rugs, canned food, ladies shoes, small tools and a lantern and said all of these articles, manufactured by cheap foreign labor, were being imported by this country at prices ruinous to American industries because of the reciprocal trade agreements of the present National Administration. «We should keep the American market safe for American labor— irrespective of whether that labor works in the fields or in industries. Buy American first, last and all the time, but buy American,” he said. Meanwhile, Senator Minton said in defense of the reciprocal trade agreements that they had “brought thousands of dollars to the pockets of industry, agriculture and labor by finding a foreign market” for their surplus products. Export Gains Cited

“In a typical campaign of deception, the Republicans are talking about imports permitted by the trade agreements, without mentioning a word about the exports which far out-balance the imports,” he said. “For the year ending this July, the United States sold to the for-

eign market 103 million bushels of |

corn, and imported only 34 million bushels. There's a gain of 63 million bushels of corn sold for the American farmer. “For the same period, the United States sold to the foreign market

270 million pounds of pork, and im-|

ported only 64 million . pounds. There's a gain of 206 million pounds of pork sold for the American-farm-er. For the same period, the United States sold abroad nearly 98 million bushels of wheat, and imported only 741 thousands. There's a gain of 97 million bushels of wheat sold for the American farmer. | “What's the story on the Republican side of the ledger Exports of! American agricultural products fell | to their lowest level in 1932. For the first six months of 1938, the United States sold to the foreign markets more corn than it has in any full year since 1922. The exports for this six-month period were 348 times the corn imported.

Old-Age Pensions

“What about the imports of agricultural commodities? Farm products were imported into this nation in large quantities only when the drought burned up American crops, and the American breadbasket became the dust bowl. The ever-normal granary plan enacted by Congress last session will prevent a return of this condition by storing up grain in the years of abundance to be used in the years ot drought and dust.”

“Sickness and death is the. severe penalty we pay for the smoke hazard,” he said. Meanwhile, Democratic leaders prepared for a state-wide rally of war veterans tonight at Tomlinson

Hall where J. Monroe Johnson,

assistant U, S. Secretary of Commerce, will be the prineipal speaker. Other speakers will be Senator VanNuys, Reps. Louis Ludlow and William H. Larrabee. Tom McConnell, state chairman of the Democratic veterans, will preside.

‘We've Made Progress’ In his address on smoke, Sullivan, a former Mayor, said: “We have made progress in smoke abatement through the efforts of various civic groups, plant managers

and the City combustion engineer. “I consider it to be one of the major problems that confront us. I am advised that the heavy pall that hangs over our city from early

waste, not only in the health bill that results from breathing polluted air and the heavy cleaning bills, but in waste of fuel. We call it the smoke nuisance. It would be more accurate to call it the smoke hazard. “I have no intention of driving through a program that would work a hardship on industries struggling to swing into profitable production, but I feel sure that if it could be shown that smoke is costly in the long run, industrialists, apartment house owners and occupants of homes would go the limit to cooperate. : Cites Federal Building

“Workmen have just completed the cleaning of the Federal building and for the first time in many years we see it as the strikingly beautiful structure that it is.

Boetcher Brands Wolff Charges ‘lll-Founded’

Mayor Boetcher today denied as “ill-founded and untrue” ' charges of extravagance in City government made by Herman C. Wolff, Republican candidate for Mayor. >

The Mayor also said that Mr. Wolff’s intimation that City-owned cars were being used for purposes other than the City’s business was “absolutely without foundation.”

“If Mr. Wolff wants to criticize the way the City has been run, he ought to be more sure of his facts,” the Mayor said. “We keep an accurate check on the amount of gasoline used in City cars, and the only City cars used over the week-end are those that may have to be used in an emergency.” The Mayor referred to a speech made by Mr. Wolff Tuesday night at a Republican meeting held at 1350 Hanna Ave.

Movies Are Shown.

Meanwhile, Democratic headquarters today was preparing a series of moving picture films of various City improvements. : A preshowing was held yesterday afternoon in Mayor Beetcher’s office before an audience that included Ira Haymaker, Democratic County chairman; Frank McKinney, County Treasurer; Russell Campbell, Democratic publicity worker; H. Nathan Swaim, City Controller, and Mayor Boetcher. The film will be shown at various political meetings, the Mayor said. They include views of the levee work along the White River, South East St. improvements, Pogue’s Run outlet, the Lake Sullivan drainage and enlargement project, the Clifton St. improvement and the Shelby St. bridge.
