LOOMS FOR SEN. 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

Honeymoon Destination Of
Young Couple Unknown
President And Wife
Aid 'Escape.'
NAHANT. Mass., June 18. (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.

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

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

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."
