DEMOCRAT CONVENTION (C'ontinned From I'n^e One) dressed the Liberty League recently and delivered a biting denunciation of the new deal. Tucked away in the last paragraph of the Smith telegram was a threat to throw conservative Democratic votes in November to the Republican ticket of Landon and Knox unless the convention here does an about face and repudiates the Roosevelt leadership. “If you fail,” the telegram read, “then patriotic voters of all parties will know unhesitatingly to what standard they must rally in order to preserve the America of the great leaders of the past.” The five men who signed this telegram sent a trumpet call across the nation, for theirs are voices that will be heard and listened to from ocean to ocean. Not since Theodore Roosevelt bolted the Republican party and told his Bull Moosers that they stood at “Armaggedon of another holy crusade” has there been such a wide and significant revolt in an American political party. Smith spoke as a former presidential candidate of the Democratic party and a man who has a large personal following throughout the nation; Ely, ex-governor of Massachusetts. is a power in New England; Reed, the white haired orator from Missoun and once the firebrand of the United States senate commands respect and support in the middle west; Colby, secretary of state in the Wilson administration, has friends and associates in the conservative east: Cohalan possesses influence in New York City and state, where the pivotal fight in the November election probably will occur and where the Democrats face a hard battle because their best vote getter. Governor Herbert H. Lehman, has declined to run for rc-election. So these were the great names who took their walk last night and as they walked they paused and shied stones at new dealers, accusing them of waste, extravagance, unsound fiscal policies and a whole category of crimes against the American system of government. “You must, above all.” their telegram read, “put an end to the campaign, now under full swing, to buy the presidency by the misuse of funds t generously given by the people of the United States to alleviate want and distress, largely caused by the incompetence of public servants.” No impartial person believes there is a chance for a "stop Roosevelt” movement to develop. Everyone of the 1.500 delegates who will cast the 1.100 votes some of the votes are split into halves, quarters and thirds is pledged to Mr. Roosevelt. Every state may second his nomination and among the seconders will be Governor Lehman the one man in the United States who still holds the political friendship of both Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt. WILL the parties who borrowed gas guns for the purpose of killing rats, from Ivan Ruark and E. W. Baker please return them at once. 22-Ip WANTED: Washing to do. Call at 614 Main street.

STREET SWEEPER SEES SERIOUS SCENE SUNDAY Theodore Forepaugh worked under difficulties Monday morn-

ing.

Fire, caused either by spontaneous combustion, or friction of broom on conerrte throwing sparks into the local white wing’s horseless carriage, broke out Sunday morning while the vehicle was parked on a downtown street. A rush call to the local fire department brought all available apparatus to the scene immediately and a furious fight on the part of the fire laddies resulted. Damage was held to a minimum but the cab of the conveyance was noticeable charred. The operator, d safe distance away from the raging blaze, escaped injury. And some people call it arson. Forepaugh remained “non-com-mittal.”

BUILDING BOOM LOOMS; FHA OFFICE IN THIS CITY

A general boom in building of city town houses, farm homes and farm buildingc may be expected in Putnam County as the result of a Federal Housing Administration office in this city. The new F. H. A office is located in the second floor of the Central Bank Building. The establishment of an office here is a part of the State wide program under the direction of R. Earl Peters

to stimulate building through the medium of loans through the Banks etc., secured by the government. The program has been extended to include farms, ami fanners may obtain loans for repair or remodeling the old ones or building such other farm buildings as are necessary. Buying homes already constructed and refinancing the home are also Included in the program. Plan Of Government The Government's plan is to furnish an insured first mortgage on your | property for as much as 80 per cent of the total value. The expense of i periodic financing is thereby elimin-1 ated. Monthly installments, as convenient as paying rent, reduce the debt, until the borrower is sole owner of the property The Government does not loan the money on an insured first mortgage. The insured first mortgage loan is private capital, loaned by the local hank or building and loan association, approved by the F. H. A. It was stated that if you own a free and clear lot it can serve as or part of the 20 per cent cash down payment depending on its appraised value. If the lot is worth 20 per cent of the total value of the property when improved, further down payment is usually not required. The owner can then borrow up to 80 per cent of the total cost of appraised value of the house and lot combined. You can also buy an existing home and pay for repairs and improvements on the same basis or you could pay off existing mortgages and refinance your present home in this modern, convenient way. To Stimulate Ru.sinexs William Helgers, Field representative of the Federal Housing Administration in this District stated that business in the community should be stimulated through the local F. H. A. office. He cited that lumber and hardware dealers, tradesmen, decorators, furniture stores and so on without limit are to be benefited when such a building program gets under

way.

The twenty year plan offered by the F. H. A. is believed to be just the impetus needed to set many husbands and wives to work on their long cherished own their home project, he

said.

Anyone interested should call on the officials in charge of the local office and talk the matter over with

them.

It appears that anyone with an as-
