DO “WE WANT HIS KIND IN OFFICE?"

| Many states are proposing legislation that will curb the activities of the Chicago Board of Trade in arbitrarily fixing the prices of farm products. Senator Capper of Kansas and Governor Allen of the same state, both Republicans, are taking :an active part in the proposed legis- ! lation, Capper even declaring that he ( will introduce a bill In the United State senate to abolish what he terms “the greatest gambling hell in the world.” Is it any wonder then that Warren T. McCray, Republican candidate for governor and a member of. the Chicago board, .is j receiving such powerful support to place him in the state house ? Indiana, if it followed the wishes of* its people, undoubtedly would join with- the other states in trimming the sails of the board, but with its representative sitting in the capitol what chance will the public have? Mr. McCray says he is a friend of the farmer, but he will have difficulty in making them believe that when he is a member of a board that proposes to pay them 60 cents for their co^n.
