HARDING SETS OUT PROGRAM FOR FARMERS Senator Outlines Stand on

Solving of Agricultural Problems Believes Need Is Stronger Representation. WOULD STUDYMARKETS (Br Associated Press) ST. PAUL. Minn.. Sept. 8. Follow Ing close on the heels of Governor James M. Cox, his Democratic opponent. Senator Warren O. Harding, Republican candidate for president, had a busy day before him on his ar rival in St. Paul from Chicago today, including an address on agriculture at the Minnesota state fair ground?. Senator Harding and his party weie greeted by a delegation of Republicans and other citizens when their special train pulled In shortly after 9 o'clock this morning. After an Informal reception at the depot, the Republican nominee rode in an automobile parade to the state fair grounds. There he made a brief address to farm boys attending the exposition, and then reviewed various exhibits. At noon he was the guest of the state fair board at luncheon, following which he spoke at 1:30 p. m before the grand stand his principal address of the day. W. C. Murphy, president of the board. Introduced tho speaker. Will Head Auto Parade. From the fair grounds, Senator Hardng will head an auto parade to Minneapolis, where he will be the guest of the Lincoln Republican club at a public reception. Returning to St Paul, at 6 p. m.. Senator and Mrs. Harding will dine at the home of Ben F. Myers, Mrs. Harding's cousin. Another public reception will be held tonight at the state captal here. The building will be specially Illuminated for the occasion, and the sena tor will shake hands with as many persons as possible. He leaves late tonight or early tomorrow for Marion. Senator Harding, in his speech at the state fair, set forth his policy as contemplating the following steps: Larger representation of farmers in governmental affairs, particu'arly with repaid to trade and finance. Establishment of a system of cooperative associations for marketing farm products. Would Study World Market A scientific study of the world market for farm products, with a view to stabilization of prices. j Curtailment of unnecessary price-' fixing and of "Ill-considered efforts arbitrarily to reduce farm product prices." Administration of the farm loan act so as to decrease tenancy, promote diversified farming, and provide for long-term credits. Restoration of railway facilities to a state of highest efficiency. Revision of the tariff to protect American agriculture from unfair competition. Both reclamation and intensive farming, the nominee said, would have their places in a development of the nation's agricultural resources to a capacity which would Insure to posterity an abundance of domestic food products. He stressed the need for diversified crops and also declared It essential that there be a normal balance between grain and livestock. Deplores Dr'ft to City Deploring the v ' of population from cotintry to city. Senator Harding advocated an improvement in the social life of the farm and such an administration of economic laws as would insure "a fair balance between our urban and rural industries." He praised the part played by the farmers during the war, declaring that "it never will be understood or fully appreciated by our people." The candidate described his conception of the future of American farming as contemplating "a system of agriculture which will enable us to feed our people abundantly, with some to spare for export in years of plenty, and at prices which will insure to the farmer and his family both financial rewards and education, social and religious living conditions fairly comparable to those offered by cities." Price control might be necessary and wise in time of national crisis, the Senator said, but prices in the long run must rest rather on natural laws than on arbitrary enactments. "Government drives against food prices such as we have experienced during the past two years are equally vain and useless," he continued. "The ostensible purpose of such drives is to reduce the price the consumer pays for food. The actual result is unjustly to depress for a time the prices the farmer receives for his grains and livestock, but with no appreciable reduction in the price the consumer pays. Such drives simply give the speculator and the profiteer additional opportunities to add to their exactions." Must Continue Prosperity Tho crux of the whole agricultural problem, declared tho nominee, is the question whether the nation is to follow a short-sighted policy of exploitation or adopt a program to insure continued prosperity under a self-sustaining system. "The time has come," said he, "when as a nation we must determine on a definite agricultural policy. We must decide whether we shall undertake to make the United States a selfsustaining nation or whether we shall continue to exploit our agricultural resources for the benefit of our industrial and commercial life and leave to posterity the task of finding food enough by strong-arm methods if necessary to support the coming hundreds of millions. "I believe In he self-sustaining, independent, self-evident nation, agriculturally. Industrially and politically. "The farmer requires no special fa(Continued on Page Eight)

It extends along the Etrurian coast and runs over the Appanines eastward for upwards of 100 miles. Haven't Heard from Hany. In this district there are many populous towns, and no tidings have as yet been received from many of them. There is every indication that the shock was a severe one, and reports from cities in the earthquake zone show that buildings crumbled beneath the strain of the convulsions of the earth. At Flvizzano, a town of 17,000 inhabitants, near Carrara, almost every building was damaged and many were completely destroyed.

COUNCIL SETS ASIDE $17,000 FOR REPAIRS FOR DORAN BRIDGE

City council transferred $17,000 from the streets, parks, and alleys fund Monday night to be used in repairing the Doran bridge. A new floor for the structure will cost approximately $20,000. The additional $3,000 has been asked for in another ordinance. Following a lively tilt between Mayor Zimmerman and members of the coun cil, the city fathers refused to pass the ordinance appropriating an additional $50,000 for the purchase and installation of a new turbine at tlje municipal light plant. The ordinance was up for third and final reading. Council recently passed an ordinance appropriating $175,000 for the above purpose. The eight councilmen voting against the additional appropriation were: Oscar Williams, John White, Alphonse Welshaupt, Joseph Walterman. Albert J. Ford, E. M. Thatcher. E. J. Stegman, and Ed Waidele. Councilmen Schneider, Evans and Sweltzer voted for the measure. ' Councilman Golden was not present Want Local Engineers The squabble over the appropriation develops as a result of a difference of opinion among members of the council as to whether or not outside engineers should be retained for the installation of the turbine. One faction of the councllmanic body contends that the installation can be done just as efficiently by local engineers at a much less cost to the taxpayers of the city. After long discussion in recent meetings on the purchase of the turbine, council reached an amicable discussion, but the new problem regarding installation threatens to again disrupt the pseudo-placid relationship of councllmanic affairs during the last few weeks. The faction that favors the installation being made by outside engineers conterds that if an outside company j superintend the work they will be held responsible for any accidents or trouble that may happen, and the city will have recourse in recovering damages. ' Ford Heckles Mayor Councilman Ford and Mayor Zimmerman engaged in several verbal duels during the course of the discussion, and the heckling delayed the discussions ajid furnished much entertainment for the spectators. After a long discussion, it was decided to postpone increases in salaries for the city policemen until the first of the year. The ordinance appropriating $12,500 for repairs to the boiler room was passed on the third reading.

man ueorgia s tza.uuo, when the senate committee investigating campaign expenditures resumed hearing todav. Dudley S. Blossom, one of the leaders in the Cleveland fund-raising drive, testified the Cuyahoga countv quota was fixed at $400,000, although the testimony of Fred W. Upham, Republican national treasurer, fixed the goal for the entire state of Ohio as $400,000 for the national committee and $25,000 for state purposes. C. W. McClure. of Atlanta, Ga., said Mr. Upham sent C. F. Taylor, a paid field worker, to him last month with a letter stating that Mr. Taylor was delegated to raise more money in that state. McClure quoted Dr. J. C. Stockbridge, of Atlanta, who assisted him. as saying Mr. Taylor had told Dr. Stockbridge that he wanted to raise $25,000 in Atlanta alone. Mr. Blossom said they actually raised $74,000 In Cuyahoga county, ana Mr. McClure said the committee ohtained pledges of about $11,000 in the state of Georgia, of which $6,015.75 had been paid. Called Attention to Statement. Senator Reed called Mr. Blossom's attention to the quota sheet submitted last week by Fred W. Upham, Republican national treasurer, who fixed the amount for the entire state of Ohio at $400,000. Mr. Blossom said that when he left Cleveland Labor day $74,000 had been pledged and that the work was still going on, with Mr. Protzman directing it, and all workers trying to reach the goal of $400,000. Senator Reed then took the witness through Form 101, the campaign plan which Republican witnesses have said was never issued and which Mr. Blossom said he had never seen. At almost every step in organization d--scribed In the plan Mr. Blossom nodded or expressed assent He said an executive committee was formed as described in the plan and remembered of its dozen or so members Michael Gallagher, coal operator and chairman, and John Sherwln and J. H. McNutt. bankers, and C. A. Otis, broker, as members. "They were among the most influential and powerful business and professional men in your city as described by this plan for the executive committee?" said Senator Reed. Senator Reed finished the reading of "Form 101" with the signature of "Harry M. Blair, June 14, 1920." Mr. Blair is assistant to Fred W. Upham. the Republican national treasurer and the date two days after the nomination of Senator Harding. Senator Reed and Chairman Kenyon clashed again when the Missouri senator asked Mr. Blossom who "suggested this plan you followed, which" absolutely tallies in almost every respect with this document I have Just read ?" Senator Kenyon cautioned tha witness not to answer and objected to Senator Reed's asking Mr. Blossom about a document which he had already testified he had never seen. "You have bully ragged witnesses," .Senator Reed retorted, "you have done every sort of thing to witnesses, you have asked leading questions. In all my years of experience I never heard any one in court and especially not on an investigating committea supposed to be seeking all the truth, caution a witness not to answer a quesm mat, manner. Mr. Moore was not in the room when the committee was called to order and several minor witnesses were summoned. The first was H. G. Garrett, of Winchester. Ky., chairman of that state's Republican ways and means committee. Blossom testified that A. A. Brotzman, a paid agent of the national committee, was present when the Cleveland quota was announced at $400,000. and that Mr. Brotzman directed the raising of the money. Mr. Moore's testimony Tuesday consisted largely of Information ha said he had obtained from telegrams received from Democratic state chalimen in western states. These reports, he said, were intended merely as avenues of inquiry, anr that, -paid employes of the Republican national committee." ought to be able to furnish the committee with facts. Get 'Em on Stand. Mr. Moore said the object was "to get those men in the stand here, and lf they He, prosecute them." "I don't want peace; I am preparing for war," pronounced Senator Reed. Considerable of Mr. Moore's late testimony consisted of information gleaned from telegrams received from Democratic state chairmen in Western states. He told Senator Kenyon he had sent fnr Knmn nf thlsi Infnrmatltn and taht other parts of It had been volunteered. United States District Attnrnev Charles F. Clyne announced today that lnrormauon aDout presidential campaign expenses has been submitted to him by E. H. Moore, Governor Cox's representative, at the senatorial to- - m . i i tures.
