Rally Here Lists President's Acts in Saving Country Tariff Necessity Stressed Stamping as "downright Ilea" much of the propaganda against President Hoover, which the Democratic candi date and his workers have been broadcasting to the American people. Buron Fitts, Los Angeles district at torney, and war veteran Friday night told a crowd of over 600 at the Nata torium, why he Intends to vote for Iloover again this term. His appear ance here was under the sponsorship of the Veterans' Republican club. Numerous Instances of Hoover's actions which have saved the United States from catastrophes were cited by Mr. Fitts, who told how Hoover was successful In keeping the country on a gold standard after he had been Informed by Secretary of the Treasury Ogdea Mills that the United States had only two weeks to remain on the standard. Mr. Fitts was in the White House with the two men when the announcement was made. Tariff Need Stressed Hoover's reconstruction program was also pointed to by the district attorney, and told how this had aid ed the nation.

The Democratic prin ciples of competitive ana reciprocal tariff would mean economic suicide for the Pacific coast. "If Mr. Roosevelt should attempt to carry out his theory of competitive tariff, our farmers, cattlemen and fruit growers would be face to face with the alternative of either lower ing wages, costs of production and our living standards down to the wage level and wage standard of Mexico, South America and other countries, or operate at a cost equal to the difference between the wage level and living conditions of the countries Involved. "It is economically Impossible for the cattlemen of Oregon to compete with the cattlemen of Mexico. Lumber Cannot Compete "The lumber industry of Oregon and Washington cannot compete with the lumber Industry of Canada with coolie labor. It Is totally Impossible for the orange and lemon growers of California to compete with Italy and citrous growers of other countries without jeopardizing our methods of living and the wage scale that has made possible our standard of living In the past." He went on to say: "I have heard during the course of the campaign of tiie Indifference of the Republican party to the welfare of War veterans. I have been active In Veterans' af fairs since the war, have been a past commander of the Legion in Califor nia and was one of the authors of the first Sweet bill passed In congress which raised compensation for the totally disabled from $30 to $100 per month.

Every piece of remedial relief legis-, latlon for the benefit of Civil war veterans, Spanish War veterans and World war veterans has been passed by a Republican congress and Ad ministration." "I believe Tammany hall to be the most corrupt organisation that Amer- ' lea has ever known. It has made Jus tice in New York a mockery. It has prostituted the right of every Amer-! lean citizen to decent government. I can't believe that our Western peo ple have forgotten that nation-wide scandal of a year or so ago when Judgeships In New York were openly bartered over the counters of Tam many hall. It Is to the credit of Wood row Wilson and Orover Cleveland (Democrats) that they fought Tam many with their entire strength. "We find that however, today, Tam many has in Its convention endorsed the national Democratic ticket. . I know from past experience that Tam many endorsements are selfish and are not predicated upon the desire for the general welfare of the com munity or nation. Slap at Tammany "I find It hard to believe that our citizens want Tammany to appoint our federal Judges, and other posi tions of trust and confidence In our national government. I should never vote for any person. Democrat or Re publican, endorsed by Tammany, cer tainly not if the campaign of the person was under the leadership of Tammany. "No man in recent American his tory has served as President who pos essed a more human understanding, or a heart more responsive to the suf ferings or unhapplness of our people than- Herbert Hoover. His entire life and public record Is surety corrobo rative of this statement. I shall never apologize for my support of Mr. Hoo ver. I find It a privilege to do what ever I can on behalf of that man wbo has done more, who has contributed more, to our welfare, and, who has received for doing so, more criticism and abuse than any man in Amer DIRECTORY A.

Cowglll of the Vet erans' Republican club, who spoke briefly on the Republican campaign for president, during which he named the Democratic- leaders and the amount o money they had re ceived as refunds from federal In come tax, as well as the sums they turned over to the Democratic cam paign fund.

Miss Harriet O. Long. Discussions' were given over to tech nical problems and Important cur rent books. Following the Thursday evening banquet Miss Long addressed the gathering on the work of the state library in the wide reaches of the state, In which there are no county libraries, 27 counties In all. An outstanding feature of the con ference was the closing address by R. C. aroeebeck, president of the chamber of commerce and member of the Klamath county library board. As a successful and experienced business man, he Indicated the im portance of libraries to the continued growth and efficiency of business. His argument was outlined as follows: "Libraries are essential to the sta bility of government which Is the very foundation of business; that stability of government Is Impossible without clear thinking on the part of Individuals and clear thinking de pends on the furnishing of the minds of individuals with accurate and com plete Information upon which to re flect. "Business bears the burden of all social activity, the burdens of Illit eracy, of crime, of sickness and un employment; that In the Illiteracy of 1.000.000 persons In the United States a vast amount of man power is lost to the business world through dullness and Ignorance that can only of CANDIDATES WM.

"That the sickness of 1,500,000 per sons witnesses a great lack of 'the wisdom of body that Is so necessary to efficiency and that is so easily obtainable through the printed word. "That In the problem of unem ployment looming so large In recent months, at least lack of thrift, lack of foresight, lack of preparation can be In large part overcome by enreful and well directed reading, for libra ries are the greatest Instruments of all for the adjustment of individual lives, and for sane relations In social life."
