Restoration
Of Economic

National Chairman Hits at
Those Seeking Office by
Trying to Outpromise
New Deal.
PORTLAND. Feb. 1 I (AP)
Cultivation of the balanced judg
ment of Abmham Lincoln to pre
vent a "breakdown of national en
terprise" and a "disunion of
classes" was recommended last
night by Dr. Glenn Frank, cbuir
nian of "the republican naiional pro
gram committee, in a Lincoln day
address.
-Lincoln had to rind the poIMcM
that would again make the politi
cal order a going concern." the
former nresident of the I'divers
lly of Wisconsin s:id in his na
tiotnlly broadcast address.
"We must find and find before
It. is too late- the policies that
will make the social and economic
tmlers of American lite going con
re mr. . . ."
In advising republicans to fol
. Aiw a middle-or-Lhe-road policy,
' he said "the only reason -for ever
being anywhere hut in the middle
of the road Is that the leadership
sometimes lets the middle-of-the-road
fall into such bad repair
that one is hurled, before he
knows it, far to the right or far to
the left."
Observations Presented
Or. Frank presented six observa
tions to combat "apostles of com
placency" and "poker-playing op
portunists" and prepare the party
as the "'fit instrument of nu'.ion
al destiny."
He said republicans who eonsfd
ed the last general election sig
nalized an "irresistible swing
back of the pendulum" belonged
to the complacency school oi" party
thought. The opportunism school,
he asserted, was composed' of
those who "sneak back to power"
by "hysterical attempts to out
promise the new deal."

LOS ANGKLHS, Feb. 14. f AP)
William Allen White, Kansas
newspaper publisher, believes "if
the republicans must be reborn to
survive,, the, .democrats . must re
peat to bo" saved."
"The country is ready for a new
alignment for new leadership, for
a new program." he told 2)i0 fel
low republicans at the Lincoln
club's annual dinner here last
night.
"Opportunity, with come-hither
eyes, is beckoning someone to
power. A new group must take
charge of our polities probably
not under a new party label.
"The dull, selfish blundering- of
reactionary leadership will fail in
either party. The most colossal
bin tuler that can be made is to
think we can go back to !I2.
'Them days is done forever!'"
The publisher of the Fmporla.
Gazette declared:
"Today we realize that our na
tional economy cannot survive
with labor as a commodity. Now
we know that tho working man,
to be a producer, must also be a
competent consumer.
"Hut the employer is not (he
only one who must change his
methods. The laborer must get It
into his head if he is to he a con
sumer to the limit he must be a
producer to the limit of his pow

Republicans Facing Great
Opportunity to Restore

Ex-President.
NRW YORK. Feb. 14. (AP)
In a speech recalling his own ef
forts to meet "the storm of 102II,"
Herbert Hoover last night sum
moned the republican party to a
three-fold mission, including pre
servation of "peace for America,"
in which he said lay its greatest
opportunity since Abraham Lin
coln. Keynoting the 53rd annual Lin
coln day dinner of the national re
publican club, the only living ex
president made his most vigorous
attack since li)3ti upon the Roose
velt administration.
Tho "great resolves" of the. re
publican party other than peace,
he said, must be "economic res
toration" and preservation of the
country's "high purposes" of free
dom which '"are being undermin
ed by the policies now pursu d
at home and by alien theories
from abroad."
Hoover appeared on the plat
form with a long list of party dig
nitaries and the second Heat of
honor was occupied by Dist rid
Attorney Thomas K. Dewey of
New York, the unsuccessful gub
ernatorial candidate, of last year.
Although not glancing in
Dewey's direction, the former

While the conference, held in an

Rep. Frank II. Hilton said "this
bill would help every farmer by
reducing freight rates."
