ADAMS MODERATE NEW DEALER IS FORTIFIED HAS PRAISE IN WRITING FROM SECRETRV ICKES FARLEY ADVISES RANDS-OKF POLICY WASHINGTON, June IB. The caee of Senator Alva B. Adama of Colo rado, one of the Democratic heretlca condemned to martyrdom In the pri maries, unusually Illuminates the po litical trend of tho new deal. As yet, It's not entirely certain that the tough and rather cynical Adams la to be Included In the auto da fe. .But the usual 100 per cent new dealer. Judge Benjamin Milliard, has announced his candidacy agalnat Adams after the usual happy chat with the president. On his cross country trip this summer, the presi dent will hare the usual opportunity to give a broad hint of his preference. In fact, a stake for Adams has been put up. the fagots nave been laid, and all that remains Is to set the fire. As it happens, however. Senator Adams has contrived great protec tions against martyrdom, of which the first, and funniest, Is nothing less than a letter from Secretary of the Interior Harold h. Ickes. On various occasions, notably last winter, when Ebsrt K. Burlew's nomination to the undersecretary-ship caused an Investi gation of wire tapping and the like In the Interior department, Adams has done Ickes favors. And so, this spring, when a testimonial dinner was given the senator, the secretary reciprocated. "I have a high regard for his ca pacity and ability In dealing with many i matters of extreme importance to the west and to his own state," wrote the secretary. "He puts Into his work unfailing energy, Intelli gence and statesmanship. His grasp of and Interest in western affairs sucb as reclamation, national parks, the Indians, grazing, mapping, land classification and other activities calls for the highest commendation." The Ickes letter will be doubly em barrassing to the antl-Adamltes. Not only Is It a written proof of the Adams ability to bring back the federal bacon for the folks at home. Tt also breaks the new deal front, coming from a cabinet officer of the strictest sect, who would now be a member of the purge committee If he were not too busy honeymooning. And besides the J.ckes letter, there are other obstacles to be surmounted before Senator Adama can enjoy a martyr's fate. He haa the Colorado state organization squarely behind him. and Postmaster General James A. Farley has councllled and will himself follow a hands-off policy. Except on the court bill, he haa a moderately new deallsh record. Un like Senator Walter F. George, of Georgia, whose most remembered crime Is his court fight attack on the president as a traitor, he has always professed loyalty to the White House. He comes from outside Denver, yet he hss most of the Denver ward lead ers sewed up already. In fact, at the present writing, the betting on Adams Is better than two to one. yet there can be no doubt that the White House la tempted to risk the unequsl battle agalnat him. The case of Adams Is Illuminating, because It so squarely poses the question If the risks are so great, why may the president and his gen eral staff persist In their plan to purge their party? A tremendous hullabaloo has been raised over the purge of Independent Democrats. The use of relief as a weapon has been rightly decried. It has also been strangely argued that the president has no right to give direction to his party by aupportlng one element In It agalnat the other. But the interesting thing Is not whether the purge la morally right, but whether It is wise. And If you grant the premises of the president and bis general staff. It must be ad mitted that there la wisdom In their program, whether or not they are frightened out of It. Their first premise Is thst the special type of liberal-Intellectual government known as the new deal must be continued after 1940. Their second Is that the independent Dem ocrats, once they return to the senate for another six years, will be about as responsive to command as so many hogs on Ice. And their third la that the Democratic party, as now const!- (Continued oo Page Sli ) M'Nary Bark Soon SALEM. June IS. (AP) Senator C.

(ffMt. and Mrs. John Roosevelt, for The moment at least the nation's top ranking newlyweds, tonight slipped away for an unannounced destination after a society wedding that combined solemnity and smiles, noise, color and pomp. The president and Mrs. Roosevelt helped their youngest son and the new Anne Clark Roosevelt make good their "escape" from this sea-surrounded Island, thronged for the day with thousands of the curious. The bride and groom started their journey by automobile, with a police escort discouraging pursuit. Heading northward, they hinted by their ac tions that a private home In New Hampshire, or Campobello, the Roose velt stimmer home In New Brunswick, might be their destination. .A sea trip, with Canada a point of em barkation, probably will follow. "Gee. I'm glad It's all over." John breathed to Anne as they rushed for their automobile, shortly after 4:30 p. m. (E. D. T.) The chief executive and first lady, remaining at the wedding reception to center Jhe attention of guests until their' son and new daughter-in-law had departed, themselves left soon afterward. The president headed for Hyde Park. N. Y., after boarding the yacht Potomac at near-by Salem. Mrs. Roosevelt turned toward the same destination by automobile. John and Anne could look back tonight on a marriage performed without the slightest slip. In the dusk of the 107-year-old Union church here, contrasting with the bright noonday sunshine outside, the young couple moved through tho solemnities of the Episcopal single ring ceremony in Just aix minutes. Outside, a noisy crowd of several thousand pressed against the police lines, cheering tho chief executive and first lady and two cabinet offi cers as they arrived and bursting Into spontaneous applause as the young married couple emerged. In looking back upon the day as a whole, expert witnesses of many a wedding event were almost at loss to find a flaw. But there was one. John forgot to kiss the bride at least he forgot while at the altar. Inside, from the moment the bride stepped through the door at 1 3 :02 p. m. . daylight 1 1 m e two minutes behind the scheduled start ing time until she emerged smiling but noticeably misty-eyed, the rit ual ran as If the bridal party had rehearsed for months rather than a few hilarious minutes yesterday eve ning. Joined by John at the flower banked, white satin covered altar at 13 :05, the two were declared man and wife at 13:11 by the Rev. Endi cott Peabody, 81-year old Groton headmaster, who married not only the president and Mrs. Roosevelt but every one of their sons as well. Only then did the blonde Anne, four months younger than her 23 year old husband, relax. As she swept up the aisle on John's arm to the strains of Mendelssohn's wed ding march the bride winked broad ly at Usher James Roosevelt, oldest brother of the bridegroom. Prom the church the entire bridal party and 300 guesta were sped to the century-old Nahant club, once the home of Frederic Tudor, who made a fortune by shipping the first ice to the West Indies. The bride and groom were Joined there by approximately 300 other guests, and the newest member of the Roosevelt family was toasted in champagne. BY AT ROOSEVELT PETE RUSSELLVILLE. . Ark., June 18. (AP) The committee on prohibi tion and law enforcement of the Cumberland Presbyterian church considered today a demand by Mod erater D. D. Dowell for "a definite stand" on the serving of champagne at a reception which followed the Roosevelt-Clark wedding In Nahant. Macs. The committee's report was sched uled to be made Monday when the general assembly of the church re sumes business sessions. Calling attention to a newspaper clipping sent him from Helena, Ark., about the wedding at noon today of the president's son John, to Anne Lindsay Clark, Mr. Dowell said: . "That part of It (about the wed ding, la all right. But I want to read you some underscored lines." He then read a reference to cham pagne "set aside for an elaborate reception after the ceremony." "It's time something was done about thee things. We can at least make a definite stand. I refer this matter to the committee on proht btion and law enforcement, be said.

Paul Smith, San Francisco Chronicle Executive, Gives Observations At Convention Luncheon. A European war within the next five years was predicted yesterday by Paul E. Smith, general manager of the , San Francisco Chronicle. Mr. Smith addressed a luncheon meeting of the Oregon Newspaper i Publishers association In Blst annual convention here. The luncheon was held In the Hotel Medford. None of the European nations wants a war but all of them want something that eventually will lead to war, Mr. Smith ssld. The Journalist based his assertions on observations he made during a tour of Europe recently with ex-President Herbert Hoover. The young and personable Mr, Smith related his observations with humorous flairs and Incisive cynicism. His talk was spiced with anecdotes that emphasized the absurd 'ties of various European regimes. He also related stories revealing the stark terror that exists In tho dictator nations. From the hundred-odd leaders and deposed statesmen he talked with in Europe, he concluded that only Mus solini, Hitler and Stalin professed to know the answers to the problem confronting their countries, Mr. Smith said. "And I think they're nuts," he added. The luncheon-meeting was opened by Alton F. Baker, retiring association president. Mr. Baker presented Lard E. Bladlne. elected president at a morning business session, snd then turned the chairmanship over to the new presiding officer. The meeting adopted the following resolution: "Whereas, The social security and unemployment taxes are oppressive and unreasonable and an unneces sary handicap to business, and "Whereas, We are convinced that they are In a large measure respon sible for the business depression, and "Whereas, They definitely discour age business expansion, which would create more employment, and "Whereas, In the matter of the unemployment tax, It Is unjust and discriminatory to require the em ployer to pay a tax which Is for the sole benefit of the employee, and to which the employee contributes nothing, "Now, Therefore, Be It Hesolved. that It Is the sense of the Oregon Newspaper Publishers association In convention assembled in tho city of Medford, Ore., on this 18th day of June, 1038, that the statutes creating these taxes should be repealed or amended to provide a more equitable method of accomplishing the result in tended, and we hereby urge our legis lature to memorialize congresj to this effect, and that the secretary of thin association be Instructed to forward copies of this resolution to the presi dent of the senate and the speaker or the house of the Oregon stnte legis lature when It convenes next Jan uary .'

NEW DEAL SPEEDS TO AID F Drop In Incomes Cause Of New Technique Surplus Crop Buying Planned. WASHINGTON, June 18. m The agriculture department Intends to hasten benefit payments to farmers whose income has fallen so far they are in need of help. Department officials said today that quick action was needed They reported a drop In the demand for farm products, coupled with lower farm prices than at any time In the last four years. About s7SB.000.000 will be available for farmers who compiled with thli year's crop control program. Ordinar ily, the money would be paid several months after the crop season Is over. but the plight of the farmer forces a deviation from that policy this year. . . A now technique Is being Intro duced this year to reduce the lag between the time the crop is plant ed and the payment Is made. Air planes will tako pictures of farms to determine how much has been plant ed In crops on which payments are made. This Is much quicker, officials said, than the old land surveying method. 1 Payments to wheat, cotton, tobac co, corn and general crop farmers who comply with soll-bulldlng practices under the 1500,000.000 soil conserva tion progTam should start In the fall, officials said. Payments of 936,000,000 to domestic sugar cane and beet producers on last years crop will start within a few weeks. Supplementing these .payments will bo the spending of i7B.000.000 by the federal surplus commodities corpor ation during the next 13 months for surplus farm products. The farm security administration will use 1175.000.000 mors for rural relief. - JOBLESS PROBLEM iT IN W.P.A. SURVEY WASHINGTON, June IB. (AP) The WPA decided today that the unemployment problem is a lasting one and can be coped with by nothing less than a permanent pro gram of economic security. The relief agency, in a survey, explored the questions of technolog ical unemployment, industrial trends, prices and wages, then con cluded: "No single program will eliminate the distress resulting from unem ployment. An integrated and per fected program of Insurance, public work and public assistance will be necessary. "Under such a . program- unem ployment Insurance could care for persons who lose tneir Jobs for rela tively short periods of time. Per sons unemployed for protracted per iods would receive incomes through work programs. The most important fact Is that unemployment relief can no longer be regarded as a tem porary problem to be treated on an emergency basis. The WPA experts said the "out moded local relief of the p re-industrial era" was Inadequate to meet the shock of a major depression. They blamed the Instability of employment and the presence of some Idle labor at all times for the "probable permanence of destitu tion." The instability of the labor situation. It concluded, "appears to be a normal or expected accompan iment of the highly specialised eco nomic system." Faces Reckless Charge . Ray G. Pierce, 31, of Jacksonville, was cited by state police last night to sppear In Justice of the peacr court Monday on a charge of reckless driving.
