"Ho Implies that it is the function
of tho party in power to control the

ding that "for generations Republican
and Democratic presidents alike have
made It their most sacred duty to
respect and maintain the independ
ence of America's greatest tribunal."
The president also spoke directly
c what ho called Roosevelt's attempt
"to establish tho idea in the minds
of the American people that I am
responsible for bad loans by Ameri
can, bankers and Investors In foreign
countries."

"Tho governor does not inform the

To Varied New Uses
As Sleeves, Pockets, And Even Belts
j two weeks ago that tho Democratic
. national committee had circulated
"calumnies" in, connecting him, with
tho employment of cheap Chinese la
bor years ago, tho president said.
"That committee privately acknowl-
edge:; that these have not a shred of
i foundation. They refuse to take tho
, manly course and , withdraw these
statements. They have sought to
maintain their continuing poison by
silence."
Tho president then asserted the
committee had issued other "calum
nies" and that Roosevelt had endorsed
them. Ho referred to campaign
documents saying: "President Hoover
: has failed the children"; "his real In
terest in the nation's children may be
gained by his recorded effort to emas
culate and disrupt tho children's
bureau."
"I om not required, to defend my
interest in children over the past
scoro of years," Mr. Hoover said, ad
ding that appropriations for the
children's bureau had increased under
his administration until cut by the
Democratic house.
In still another direct reply to
Roosevelt. Mr. Hoover referred to the
Democratic candidate's statement that
tho president had done "absolutely
nothing to remedy the (economic)
situation" until December. 1931.
"Violation of the Truth"
"It seems almost incredible that a
man, n, candidate for tho presidency
of tho United States, would broad
cast such a violation of the truth,"
tho chief executivo said, citing In
stances In which he contended he
had acted to remedy conditions.
Tho remainder of the president's
speech was a discussion of what he
called "some of the continuing poli
cies of this administration in contrast
with tho policies of our opponents."
Most of it dealt with the tariff, 1
in which he contended Roosevelt has !

Marked applause greeted the gov
ernor's discussion of the farm prob
lem, and particularly when he salt)
that "the farmer is more In need ol
relief today than he was when Mr.
Hoover started to relieve him."
When the governor denounced th
Republican plank dealing with pro
hibition as being one that offers "no
hope at all," and called the Demo
cratic pUnk on the question one
which "iilves positive assurance," his
audience wildly demonstrated its ap
proval. He said that the Democratic
plank "in a clean-cut, forthright
way. advocates the repeal of the ltith
amendment, with no 'ifs.' no 'buts'
and no reservations cr conditions

Speaking of economic conditions,

(Associated Press Fashion Editor)
PARIS (fl1) Fashion Is using furs In
moro varied and extraordinary ways
this whiter than ever before.
"Fur trims" no longer mean sim
ply "collor and cuffs." Pelts are
now used for every part of coat or
suit from neck to hem. Pockets,
sleeves and. even belts are made of
flat furs, while fluffy pelts swirl in
unusual ways about smart women's
figures.
Sleeves show the most interesting
development in these new fur fash
Ions. Some coats display large
bishop sleeves made entirely of bea
ver, others show shoulder puffs of
galyak, while still others are ac
cented ot the elbow with bands
which wind about the arm. j
Cuffs ore widely varied, some
models displaying deep fur trims
extending from wrist to elbow, oth
ers showing simply a narrow band, j
Collars have taken on new forms.
The old shawl design, so long in I
vogue, has boon replaced in fash- i
Ions favor by high cushion models
which frame the face, broad scarfs
tied in a trig bow on one side of the
throat, high narrow collars extend
ing their trimming down the side of
tho coat and tiny pelerine capes
which give a piquant air to the sil
houette. Tho fur trims used on the upper
part of fur coats are an outstanding
note lu the mode. Many models
nhnw pnt.lw htvllenn nr rtpfnohnhlA
boleros made of enlvak or broadtail. '
whilo another category uses the
snmo flat pelts to form yokes and
upper sleeves.
Pelts of every variety are used for
these new fur-decked coats. Foxes,
thrust into the background for the
past several seasons, have come into
their own again, and silver, beige,
brown and blue fox swUIj luxurious
ly about tho shoulders of many af
ternoon models.
The flat pelts hold their popular
ity, however, since they ore portlcu
larly adaptable to the hew trims.
Astrakhan, perslan lamb, galyak.
broadtail and beaver are used for
scores of street coats, while sports
models favor panther or leopard.
Whlto furs, such as ermine or
broadtail, trim the most formal af
ternoon coats.
If none of It has come to pasa and
nonr or it hoa theu ho cannot ex
pect the American people to give ulm
four more years to bring It about.
"Uriui'it Nonsense"
"The Republican administration
has had Its opportunity. Its poli
cies arc in Kreat measure to blame
for the unhappy conditions which ex-
j 1st in this land of plenty. Now Its
j spokesmen profess to fear that Dcm-
Iocratlc success would Imperil the
country. I say this is brazen non
sense. Democratic success will save
I the country."
, Governor Ritchie made another
i thrust at the administration when
he said:
j "The man who tramps the street
j looking for work will not put up with
the Republican administration any
I longer; the farmer who has no mar
ket for his crops, will not; the mer
chant who finds himself without
customers will not; the factory own
er whose flrea arc banked will not."

yesterday's slow advance, but the an.
pearance of the freight car loadings
statement, showing that the week
ended Oct. 22 registered 4 decline' or
8,40s cars from the previous week,
prompted floor traders to switch to
the bear elde. , '

out of the narrow trading range or
the post week, but closed wltti sev
eral losses of 1 to 2 points, which,
about cancelled yesterday' garni The
