for which 18,000 admUaion ticket
had been given out, waa completely

Compliments Organization
The president began by compli
menting the farmers for the lmprov
ment of their organized forces since
he laet made a farm address here In
1P29.
Smiling broadly at the huge crowd
tHat greeted htm. he reminded his
hearers that six years ago they h&rfj
gathered "In a very small hotel room."
Relating the years of depression, he
asserted "Juatlce and old fashioned
common sense demanded that In the
building of purchasing power we had
to start with agriculture."
Declaring the nation's "life Is com
ing back buoyant, hsppy life we
need no evidence beyond what we see
and hear around us." he was cheered
by the fnrmers.
We're going to give the president
fche greatest reception he ever had. '
Homer Rodeheaver. familiar to the
farmers as the platform companion
of the late Billy Sunday, assured the
farmers, and half of them rose from
thrlr seats In an approving roar.
The president said that the admin
istration farm program "originated In
the aspirations of the farmers them
selves expressed through the several
farm organizations."
Tooth and Claw Rule Out
"Wo sought to stop the rule of
tooth and claw that threw farmers
into bankruptcy or turned them vir
tually Into serfs."
Attacks on speculators drew anoth
er round of applause from the con
ventton. !
He added to this attack the empha
tic words "that's what we propose to
end In Amerlci."
powerful flood lights lighted the
at5fe from various angles of the audi- j
torlum.
Postmaster - Genera1. Farley, the
chairman of the democratic national .
committee, Joined the president here I
and sat on the platform with Mayor i
Kcllv.
Emphasizing with raised voice hla
conviction that "forty-eight separata i
sovereign states, acting each as a sep-
arate unit, never were able and never
will be able to leglalate or to admin
ister Individual laws adequately to
balance the agricultural life of a
nation so greatly dependent on nat
ionally grown crops of many kinds."
he was Interrupted again by ap
plause. Assertions Applauded
Applause also greeted assertion that
a "relative purchasing power of below
fifty pel cent haa now moved up
today to better than ninety per cent."
Mr. Roosevelt planned to remain
for an early lunch with convention
officials before entraining for South
Bend, Ind., where he epeaks t a
special convocation this afternoon at
which he will be awarded an honor
ary degree of doctor of laws at Notre
DAme.
Speaking of employment benefits
In Industry as a result of better farm
conditions, he said:
"You're not the only fellows who
understand this. The city fellows are
beginning to understand It. too."
"Ooods are moving again, and as
goods are moving, so Is money mov
ing once more, and as it flows, mil
lions of farm and city famlllea are
getting a bipger share of the nat
ional Income," he continued.
Benefits To Consumers
"The farm program Instead of bur
dening consumers as a group has
actually given them net benefits."
His strong endorsement of the
Canadian reciprocal trade treaty won
a round of applause.
Observing that "greater trade is
merely another word for more pro
duction anil more employment," he
aid "that statement ought to be
hung on tho wall in every farm
home."
The crowd laughed as he remarked
In reference to the source of criti
cisms "it all deprnds on whose baby
hns the meules."
Concluding, the president was
heartily applauded as he assorted
"We intend to win through to a bet
ter day America will point the way
towards a better day."

Don't Doggie This Boon
Paid propagandists In Washington
have taken over a Job begun by vol
unteer propagandists In New York
several months ago. It Is the job of
discrediting every type of made-work
attempted by the administration by
giving It the name of boondoggling.
Whoever Invented It, It's a good
word and amusing. But It Is being
put to pretty bad use. It Is being
applied to every sort of Job that
seems or can be made to seem unim
portant. Counting chicken t Ha, ha, hal
Boondoggling! Don't explain that
counting chickens was part of a seri
ous effort to break up a vicious New
York business racket that affected
honest dealers aa well as consumers;
that had to do with holding down
extortionate prices and keeping di
seased poultry off the dinner tables
of the city.
Tap-danctngt Ho, ho. ho! Boondog
gling! Ignore the fact that tap-dancing
Is something which people pay
money to aee. when they have money,
and Is considered an honorable pro
fession: that when prosperity returns
there will be a demand for those tap
dancers If they haven't become ditoh
dlggers or starved to death.
And so thru a long list. There's a
Uugh in every line. If you feel like
laughing. Somehow we do not. For
the latest added to the list of boon
doggles are the writers.
The employed writers of the anti
New Deal campaign now have the
choicest chance of their careers and
they are 'not overlooking it. Unem
good as well as In the Interest of
public welfare."
"No single project can complete
the picture," O'Neal said of the points
In the program he advanced.
"Agriculture , . . challenges labor
and Industry to come with It. A pro
gram of selfish group Imperialism
can only lead to destruction. A pro
gram of cooperative group action will
lead to national enhancement."

No, we don't think It's funny. You
see, we know a lot of unemployed
writers. We know so many that we
fear employing 4500 will not take care
of nearly all. And we make our liv
ing by writing. Just as the boys who
arc so busy about boondoggling do.
We have long regarded It as a useful
and honorable profession and we
don't enjoy sniggers on the subject.
Not only that, but we haven't any
Illusion that we hold our present Job
by divine right or that there is no
possibility of our ever being out of a
Job. In that we may be different
from the boys who are being paid
for having such a happy time over
boondoggling. But we don't think
we are. Campaign Jobs are not the
most permanent form of employment
and we have a notion the boys are
aware of that fact. We feel that they
Just aren't using their heads. Carried
away by their art, they are forgetting
that, they might any day find them
selves among the unemployed.
So, on behalf of all writers, em

earnestly implore these hard-working
humorists:

Counsel for the Wisconsin banking

an Invasion of state rights.
Attorneys for the home loan banks

They said the legislation was neces

The litigation grew out of the ap
