" President Settle Denies That Fed- | eration Endorses Him; Support Is Crumbling

The Indiana Farm Bureau Federa. tion has not endorsed James E. Watson for United States senator. Nor does it have any intention of endorsing him, » Neither has William H. Settle, of Petroleum, president of the federation, endorsed him. Mr. Settle has issued a statement denying that the federation has endors- | ed Mr. Wa’.gson, or intends to endorse him. ’_ - He denies also that he himself gave any interview endorsing him. Mr. Settle charges that an interview which appeared in the “Rule-or-Ruin” Indianapolis News and which purported to endorse Mr. Watson, was drawn from the heated imagination of a reporter for the News. This lntergiew was later carried in 'a number of newspapers over the state, misled by the specious dress which was put upon it ‘by the News in its frantic effort to bolster the lost cause of the man whom for many years it denounced and whom it now, by some trick of political legerdemain or some political trade, supports. Thus, it is pointed out here, one more support falls with a sickening crash from the highly colored but swiftly and surely crumbling structure which was dressed up in fancy colors and paraded by his group to do duty for James E. Watson in his desperate political fortunes. How desperate that situation was and is, it is recalled here, became apparent when one-third of the Republican voters who went to the polls in last spring’s primary voted for Claris Adams, a young man: without organization and without funds and unknown beyond the boundaries of Marion county, in protest against the thirty years of Watson’s do-nothing record in congress. _ To stave off certain condemnation of that record by the Indiana State Federation of Labor at its annual state convention at Vincennes, state and federal office holders gumshoed the convention and brought every conceivable form of pressure to bear on the delegates. Reports of those methods made by delegates from Fort Wayne and elsewhere to.their local organizations have stirred the ranks of labor throughout the- state. A resglutloz; calling for Mr. Watson’s defeat was by methods represented by the returned. delegates as highly questionable, staved off. But the storm which has been raised by the-reports of the happenings at the convention is known to be leoked upon by WatsonRobinson leaders as quite as disastrous to their interests as any resolution could have been. . On top of this comes the Indiana Farm Bureau Federation to duck out from under Watson. This action brings once more into ‘the spotlight of public attention the methods used by Watson and his supporters in trying to gain his political ends, methods which have been characterized throughout by evasion, trickery, double: crosses, double shifts, double-back-actiion-criss-crosses .and double dealing ot‘ every sort. Sharp protests im;pe!dht_ely began to pour into the Farm Bureau Federation’s office here from, farmers all over the state upon publiaation by the Indianapolis News of itm carefully colored article designed to convey the false impression that the federation and Mr. Settle had endorsed Mr. Watson. Farmers remembered Mr.- Watson's ’l‘ong years of sterile service in and around congress. They remembered that he had done nothing for their benefit. : . They recalled that he himself ad‘mittedithat the farmer has been on a decline ever since be higseif first went to. congress. They recalled that he apbarently never knew theére was such a decline until in the extremely precarious poldtical situation which confronts him this year. ~ They remembered his cynical statement, as reported 'in\thdﬂ r own, organ, that “the farmer will be satisfled with a 8 bag of peanuts,” They felt that Mr. Watson, in his sudden enthusiasm for farm measures, was most certainly, in view of his double shifts and double crosses and twists and turns throughout his entire political career, trying to hand thel farmer “the bag eof peanuts” he spoke of. : B o

Then, following the protests, it appeared, with the issuance of Mr. Settle's statement, that he had never given any.interview.to the News endorsing Mr. Watson. Mr, Settle said: “Recently there have appeared lin many newspapers in the state news articles. implying that. the farm bureau bad indorsed a certain candidate for the United States senatorship. As a matter of fact, the Indiana farm bu. reau hag indorsed;no candidate for any office, nor has it any intention of so m“” ; . : § :’j
