WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. President
Rcosevelt'i current campaign trip la
unique. No presidential candidate
ever made one
like It. For one
thing, It calla for
more tnten s 1 v e
travel than Mr.
Hoover last des
perate bid In
1933. But What
la more algnlfl
cant, the presi
dent felt that
what he would
say would not be
sufficiently Im
portant to war
rant arran g i n g
national radio hook-up. except at two
of the dozens of places he intended
to stop. He made advance broadcast
ing arrangements only for Omaha
and Chicago. His Itinerary called for
stops of only an hour and a half In
most of the large cities to be visited,
and th usual over-night rests were
omitted.
Dopestera here ran around in cir
cles when they heard about It. They
could not make out whether the
president had become desperate or
whether he was Just trying to tire
himself Into an illness by meaning
less over-exertion.
Both guesses were low and outside.
The trip is not a campaign swing at
all. but an exhibition tour. The
president's associates were angry and
dissatisfied with the way it finally
developed. . One of them remarked
as the train pulled out of the station:
"One thing is missing. Wo ahould
have a flat car with a whale on it."
What happened was tills; The
president had arranged a moderate
tour for the two epeeenca in wnicn
be expected to' have something to
My. The railroad schedule was
necretly worked out five days before
the departure date. But a smart
newsman got hold of It -and publish
ed It far and wide. Then the fun
began at the White House.
State leaders and oven precinct
committeemen along the route start
ed telephoning and wiring Mr. Roose
velt, Farley, congressmen and every
one they knew In Washington. They
fumed and threatened, saying he was
sure to lose their localities If he did
not stop and at least have bis pic
ture taken with them. Some con
vinced him that he would have to
go far off his planned itinerary. By
the time be got through saying yes,
his railroad schedule looked like a
dceen pretzels heaped on a table.
For example, Minnesota leaders in
sisted that he help them In their
piecarlous situation by coming up
and promoting enthusiasm. There
seemed to be some sense in that, but,
J s' as soon as he accepted St. Paul, he
opened up about BOO miles more of
itinerary, and the way stations were
immediately heard from.
Kansas was not on the original
route either. But Its inclusion can
not be blamed on any precinct com
mitteeman, at least not directly. The
fctory goes that Chairman Farley has
long had a belief that he can carry
Kansas. The more people laugh at
him. the more convinced he becomes.
His friends say he has a dollar bet
cn It, but that is probably Just demo
cratic propaganda. At any rate, Mr.
Farley Is the one who convinced Mr.
Roosevelt that he should go through
Kansas.
The climax was not reached, how
ever, until the president was leaving
his desk for his train, fn rushed
a Michigan roads commission which
Induced him to add a fifteen-minute
stop for Pontiac.
Note It was Mr. Hoover who Is
supposed to haw observed, after re
' turning to his campaign car from a
1 i long and tedious bark platform ap
pearance at a train stop: "The thtng
a man has to do to run for the
presidency 1"
All the gentlemen In Mr. Morgen
tnau'a gentlemen's agreement on
monetary matters may still be gentle
men, but there is a growing belief In
unofficial monetary quarters here
that the pound will decline In long
lange value.
British sources are ssid to believe
14 60 pound would be nearer right
than the current 14. 89. Of course,
they are talking in terms of six
months or a year. If they really think
that way. there is little Mr. Morgen
thau can do.
The only thing certain, however, Is
that the situation stresses again the
fact that the s.abillzatlon agreement
;s not a stabilisation agreement, but
a temporary "If" arrangement to
cover the current situation.
Equally certain is that. If the Brit
ish are right, the Russians were not
very tupid in cpttlne Mr Morgen-

Refers By Inference To Lan
don 'Tariff Equivalent' As
Too Costly Endorses
Sen. Norns In Home State
OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 10. (AP) Ad
vancing a four-point program of his
own for future assistance to agricul
ture, president Roosevelt told the na
tion tonight that the "Republican
leadership" had proposed a farm plan
to cost possibly $2,000,000,000 annu
ally, "not to save agriculture out to
wreck It."
Speaking to an audience packed
Into the Ak-Sar-Ben coliseum, the
president led off with an open en
dorsement of veteran George W. Nor
rls, Republican, who is an independ
ent candidate for the senate this
year.
"Help this great American to con
tinue en historic career of service,"
Mr. Roosevelt asked.
Paints Dreary Post
'.' After asserting $hat in 1932, the
"spectre of foreclosure stalked the
farmer's plow" and agriculture was
"on the road to pauperism." the
president in seven sentences describ
ed the ad ministration 'st farm record,
them by "the vast differences between
them by 'the vast difference between
the desperation which was theirs in
1933 and the recovery, which la theirs
in 1936."
The long-time policy of the admin
istration, he eald, includes:
1. Conservation against land wast
age and soil Impoverishment.
3. Seeking to increaso purchasing
power so that people can pay for
more, and better food, thereby pro
viding a "larger and larger domestic
market for the farmer." .
3. Attacking "the evil of farm
tenancy."
4. Giving the farmer ,"a sound
plan of crop Insurance "in kind
against extreme fluctuations of sup
ply and price."
The chief executive, without mon
tlonlng by name his Republican rival
for the presidency. Gov. Alf M. Lan
don of Kansas, referred to the "tar
iff equivalent" farm program which
London proposed at Dcs Moines. Then
he asked:
bees Farm Wreckage
"What about the coat? It would
run to one and a half and even poa
stbly two billion dollars every year.
This vast sum would be spent not
to save agriculture but to wreck It.'
A tremendous ovation greeted the
president when his open car rolled
Into the coliseum, and again when
he' stepped up to the microphone
which carried hit voice throughout
the huge hall by amplifiers and to
the nation by radio.
Coliseum attendants said the hall
had seats for 12.000 persons. Every
one was taken. The crowd Jammed
Into the aisles and overflowed Into
the surrounding grounds.
The long route to the coliseum, on
the outskirts of the city, took the
president through downtown streets
ba lifted with people who shouted him
on his way.
For twelve years, the president said,
the Republican leadership "neglect
ed" an opportunity to help the Amer
ican farmer.
He put to his audience the ques
tion of what that leadership offers
now, then gave his own version.
First, he said. It would "scrap" the
resent program which 'It has con
demned as a "subterfuge" and e 'stop
gap. "
Next, he said. It would 'substitute
a system of tariff equivalent pay
ments, not for any permanent con
tribution to farm wealth or national
income, hut merely as a cash hand
outor a dole."
Then he wanted to know whether
such a plan would protect farmers
from price collapses end surpluses
and guard them agatnst a future
"disaster like 1932."
Again he offered his own idea
about It. t
"No plan could lead the nation hack
faster to such a crisis," he said.
O, o. P. Plan nil
The Republican plan, be added, "la
a straight subsidy of unlimited farm
production," and the "federal farm
board all over again."
In a year or two, he said. It would
pile' up surpluses and drive down
prices.
Earlier, he had asserted that the
farm board was the best the Repub
lican leadership could offer as a so
lution to the "farmer's plight." The
board, he said, "set an all-time high
for extravagant futility."
The Republican Smoot-Hawlcy tar
iff, he continued, finished the Job by
robbing the farmer of his "last chancy
for a foreign market.
The Democratic administration, the
president continued, had to clear
away the "debris of twelve years of
failure" and meet the problem of a
"defeatist" attitude.
"The defeatist attitude has at last
hefP defeated," he said.

ROOSEVELT TALK

President Roosevelt has nude an

would have resulted In his Impeach

need charged tonight.
Reed, lender of the "Jefferson! an

an address before an audience In his
home city. He aato:
"Conclusive evidence of Mr. Roose

United States Is contained in his
messago to congress on Jan, 3. 1933,
as follows:
"' In 34 months wo have built up
Instruments of public power . . . .
(which) in the hands of political
puppets of an economic autocracy

liberties of the American people.'
"To find a similar assertion of
power by any ruler whose tyrannies
have cursed the watld, one mutt turn
to the blackest ages of oppression
and slavery."
The New Deal, he aald. Is a com
