Ludlow

Townsend to Speak at Democratic Rally Here Friday.

Rep. Louis Ludlow pledged today that, if re-elected, he will introduce & bill for repeal of the tax on undistributed profits on the opening day of the next Congress. Mr. Ludlow condemned the tax as “unjust and prejudicial to honest business,” and added that as long as a “vestige of it remains on the statute books it will be a serious handicap to recovery and reemployment.” The Congressman said the big probiem of the Federal Government is to get business going again, and that he believes it can be solved “py the simple formula of giving business assurance of a reasonable profit and freedom from unnecessary governmental - interference.” “Business as a whole,” he said, “fs not asking for any special privileges or subsidies. It is willing to take its chances with the ordinary risks and vicissitudes. of life that come to every business enter-

prise. . “What it does ask is that it be relieved from punitive and discriminatory taxes and excessive regimentation and that it be given a fair show.” Mr Ludlow paid tribute to Indianapolis business interests, including the Chamber of Commerce which he termed one of the best in the U. S. : He praised C. D. Alexander, president of the local Chamber, and William H. Book, executive vice president, as “public-spirited business executives who can be depended upon to do all that is possible to help in various ways to revive business, not entirely for business’ sake, but to assist the workingman and the farmer.” “I want to do everything I can to help businessmen to get going again,” he said.

John D.M. Hamilton, Republican National Chairman, today was on record with the prediction that Rep. Charles A. Halleck would be reelected “easily” in the Second District ,and that Hoosier voters would send at least three additional Republicans to Congress next month. Mr. Hamilton, who addressed a state-wide meeting of the Indiana Federation of Women’s Republican Clubs here yesterday, said at a press conference that the G. O. P. stood to gain six seats in the U. S. Senate and had good chances of capturing three or four governorships of the “big states” east of the Mississippi River. “I see several changes in our favor this time,” he said. “I've received reports that the Republican Party stands a good chance in Wisconsin.

Minton Predicts Liberalized Pension Plan

Times Special GREENFIELD, Oct. 26.—A prediction that the National Administration would make definite proposals to liberalize the old age security system at the next session of Congress was made here last night by U. S. Senator Minton. Speaking at a Democratic rally, Senator Minton said he had been informed by the chairman of the Federal Social Security Board that the President had requested the board to give attention to the development of a sound liberalization plan. The board is to make its report to the President before Jan. 1, he said. “In the light of our experience since the operation of the Social Security Act, we have found that additional protection should be provided by the Government for many who are either dependent now or may be dependent in the future,” Senator Minton declared. “The New Deal is the people’s government, and whenever the people indicate a need for improving existing programs or initiating new ones, the Federal Government will He said that advocates of increased old age pensions should support the Democrat Party in the coming election, since the Democrats made the first effort to solve the social security problem.

Youth’s Future Depends On New Deal, Tilton Says

Times Special TIPTON, Oct. 26.—Young people are taking an active part in the present political campaign “because they feel their future depends upon a continuation of the policies of President Roosevelt,” Robert Tilton, Indiana Young Democrats president, said here last night. “It is only natural that the young people of America should support the National and State administrations, which have such a sympathetic interest in our welfare and have enabled us to live in a free society. “We who have gained so much in five and a half years do not wish for this Na.on to slip back again to the conditions of 1932, to the hopelessness of Hoover and the domination of American life by the

tprivileged interests.”

Rep. Patrick Aids

State Democrats

BROWNSTOWN, Ind. Oct. 26 (U. P).—Opening a series of four speeches in Indiana, . Rep. Luther Patrick (D. Ala.) declared here last night that there is only one principal issue in the November election. “That is, whether we shall pursue the program that has been begun or shall abandon it. Ordinarily we’d kb called upon vo decide whether we shall pursue the present program or some other—but no other has seriously been offered.” Mr. Patrick said that the “big howl we hear from the opposition is not against very much of anything except lack of perfection—and this we confess.” “We are at last striving and working our way toward a real, true, honest-to-heaven people's government in this country. At last we are being given & vhaart and a compass, so that we may know where we

have an understanding, can get to gether and go places.” .
