Willkie told a crowd of - welcomers in the Union station upon his arrival today that in the ;. . campaign he was beginning "I am going to give you the truth In plain Indiana language so that no one can misunderstand." The republican presidential nominee, standing on a balcony of the station, spoke impromptu - at the request of many from the . throng which had gathered to greet him as ba reached Chicago to give four addresses to indus trial and negro groups. "Crusade" "My speeches," he declared, "will ba political and I will name them as such. I will never dodge or hedge. "This is a crusade and I call to you In the name of the demo cratic way of life in America." Captain John Prendergast of the Chicago uniformed police fore estimated a crowd of at least 2000 had assembled in the station before the Willkie train arrived from Rushville, Ind. By the time Wlllkio had reached the Interior of the station from his train, the crowd had swelled con siderably.

Willkie was greeted formally ' by John D. 2s. Hamilton, execu tive director of the republican national committee; John T.

The "buccaneers," he asserted, are coupled with a "high profes sion of noble ideals."

"And I don't believe that an entrenched bureaucracy with bil lions of dollars to spend can in fluence an election." His face lighted by flares from a torchlight procession, Willkie said that he was starting out to discuss "some of the most mo mentous questions which ever faced mankind" and that he went forward "unafraid." "I still have faith," he shout ed, "that there are millions over the nation whom no political machine can corrupt and, no fed eral government can buy." RURAL STATISTICS The United States, in 1909, had 12,200,000 farm families and hired hands.

Jameson f.liley Gain Semi-Final SEATTLE, Sept 13 (UP) Na tional Champion Betty Jameson, San Antonio, Tex., and Marion Mlley of Lexington, Ky., twice former western titlist, went into the semi-finals of the 40th an nual women's western amateur championship Thursday with two Seattle stars. Miss Jameson won an easy 6 and 4 victory over Nancy Hurst, Portland, Ore. Miss Miley upset Elizabeth Hicks of Long Beach, Calif., 4 and 2. The Kentucky girl was S up at the end of the first nine holes and three under par at the turn. Miss Hicks rallied but could not overcome the disadvan tage under which hooked shots put her on the first nine. At one time a second shot went into a water hole and she took off her shoes and stockings to wade In after the ball. Her recovery shot was poor. CLOUDBURST KILLS ONE IN EASTERN OREGON (Continued from Pass One) Main street. A foot and a half of water was roaring through tho streets less than nn hour af ter the skies had unloosed their barrage. Kight thousand feet of lumber stacked on a slope was swept away like matchsticks. Wood piles, garbage and any thing Hint would float was added to the debris. Just before the cloudburst a heavy rain started then a hail storm developed with the hail as large as walnuts. All of the windows in the west side of the Huntington school building were smashed as well as many others in the residential section. Several thousand dollars In damage was reported early this morning. lli-IUsh Strike I .a llavrp. Oilier Frciu'li Seaport. LONDON. Sept. 13 uVi Brit ish bombers struck h'cavily last night at Le Havro, on the Ger man held French coast, where the nari army has been reported concentrating some of its most powerful units for an invasion of Britain, the air ministry an nounced tonight. A German tanker and a supply ship were hit at Le Havre, the ministry said. It also reported that a British balloon barrage hod snared a German plane early today. The ministry, reporting other night raids against key distribu tion centers at Osnabruck, Hamm, Schwetrc, Ehrang and Brussels, asserted that these vital junctions and freight yards of western Germany, "must ploy an important part in any attempted Invasion of Britain." "Troops, reserves, equipment and supplies moving westward to the channel ports from Ger many must pass through one of the other of these key transpor tation points," it added. A state is not efficient in which, for every 100 workers, there must be 40 policemen to see that the 100 don't slack, and 20 storm troopers to watch the policemen and a dozen secret agents to watch the watchers.

Sept. 13 W The newspaper Kokumin, often a spokesman for the army, assert-, ed today that the Japanese gov ernment was making special ef forts to reach an understanding with soviet Hussia on the ground that the United States' prepared ness program Is directed at Japan. A rapprochement is being sought in order to safeguard Ja pan's rear because, tho news paper said, relations between tho United States and Japan arc "fraught with the danger of war." America, the article continued, is offering severe strategic, eco nomic and political opposition to Japan, indicating "deadly pre paredness and definito plans." As evidence, the newspaper cited auoroDriations for a two- ocean navy, and contended that tho leasing of British territories in the Atlantic for naval bases would be followed by similar moves in the Pacific. It ridiculed American declar ations that the proposed bans of scrap Iron and gasoline are for purposes of national defense. The real reason, the article claimed, is to deny these commodities to Japan.
