for Senator
Veteran Progressive Will Oppose
Henry Field at General Elec
tion in November. -
Washington, la., Sept. 26. Sen
ator Smith W. Brookhart Baid Mon
day he would be. a candidate for re
election Nov. 8.
"Sure," the Iowa insurgent,
who was defeated in the June
primaries for the republican
nomination by Henry Field, said.
"This rebellion is too sweet for
me to stay out of.
"Why, I have 10,000 signed
pledges already."
Brookhart made the statement to
newspapermen shortly before the
beginning of the third party conven
tion, which had been called to draft
Brookhart as a candidate.
Delegates from various parts of
Iowa thronged to Brookhart's home
town for the convention in the after
noon.
Frank J. Lund of Webster City,
temporary chairman and keynote
speaker, called the session to order.
He offered Senator Brookhart as the
third rarty candidate as "the most
outstanding advocate of human rights
that ever graced a senate seat from
Iowa."
Lund said "the long tenure of of
fice of the present political party,"
was the cause of present economic
conditions.
He condemned the currency sys
tem and the failure of the federal
reserve board to issue money to pre
vent deflation.
Lund attacked the federal farm
board and the federal sales tax and
accused the administration of turn
ing to great industrial and financial
leaders for suggestions to relieve
agriculture' and labor.
The tariff he condemned as cost
ing "us our foreign market." He ad
vocated reciprocal agreements and a
"tariff equal to the difference in the
cost of producing at home and
abroad."
Lund advocated the equalization
fee and farm debenture plans. Indi
cated" his sympathy with the farmers
strike movement', attacked public
utilities' and railroads as levying un
just rates on the basis of : inflated
capitalization, and-- advocated ' pay
mettt'bf the' bonns S3 aeur&ftcy ex
pansion measure. 1' .-
rn dosing, he advocated formation
of the new party. ' He urged the con
vention to "lay aside our petty dif
ferences" and organize a permanent
party to "fight against peasantry and
economic slavery of the gerat mass
of common folks."
SENATE VACANCY IS FILLED
Denver. Walter Walker, Grand
Junction newspaper publiisher and
retiring chairman of the democratic
state central committee, was appoint
ed United States senator by Gover
nor Adams to fill the vacancy result
ing from th edeath of Senator Wa
terman. With the appointment of
Walker the political complexion of
the senate is forty-eight democrats,
forty-seven republicans and one
farmer-labor. Whether Walker will
serve in the lame-duck session of
congress beginning in December and
complete Senator Waterman's term
up to March 4, or whether a short
term senator will be named at the
general election in November wag
the subject of considerable specula
tion in Colorado political circles.
Colorado's election laws make no pro
vision for the nomination of a short
term candidate in an instance of this
kind.
Washington. Democrats gained
mathematical control of the senate
when Governor Adams of Colorado
appointed a member of that party to
fill the unexpired term of the late
Charles W. 'Waterman, republican.

provement was noted Sunday in the
condition of Mrs. William E. Borah,

Small Loans
are Made to
Create Jobs
Call for Applications Is Issued by
the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation.
Washington. The Reconstruction
Finance Corporation wants propon
ents of small self-liquidating projects
to hurry in their applications and
thu3 help create jobs.
Making this known, it also an
nounced a $2000,000 "work" loan
to the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, creating an estimated 2000
Jobs. It made as well an emergency
relief allowance of $263,307 to Vir
ginia. Through Harvey Couch, a director,
the corporation issued the call for
small projects. The statement, he
said, was "to correct a false impres
sion that seems to exist in the minds
of some people to the effect that the
corporation i3 not interested in mak
ing small loans for self-liquidating
projects."
"It is the policy of the corpora
tion," lie said, "to look favorably
upon rJl applications regardless of
the amount involved If the projects
meet the requirements of the act as
to eligibility, selMiquidating char
acter and sufficiency of security,' and
will create employment." ' '
The corporation has before It a
number of very large projects, which
would create thousands of jobs. It
has advised the' Southern California
Water District "that it will bid on
140,000.000 of "bonds of the project.
It has before ft" such projects as the

$75,000,000 Thirty - Eighth street

' The Unusual " situation of the Fi
nance Corporation announcing a loan
before tho Interrtata Commerce Com
mission announced its arproval, fea
tured this advance. The commission's
approval was given last week, but
thb opinion did not become public
after the corporation made its an
nouncement. There is one other such loan' now
before the commission.1 The Central
Railroad fcf New Jersey Saturday ask
ed for $500,000 to repair its equip
ment. The corporation has made two oth
er somewhat similar loans to rail
roads. Three months ago it loaned
$27,000,000 to the Pennsylvania so
that road might be able to continue
electrification of its New York-Washington
line. Saturday a loan of $3.
830,000 was granted the De-nxer &
Rio Crande Western Railroad that
it might build the 40-mile Dotsero
cut-off in Colorado, thus creating
hundreds of jobs.

Labor Survey
Urges Workers'

American Federation of Labor Says
-Income Loss Is Obstacle
to Recovery.
Washington, Sept. 25. Present
business trends indicate a period of
convalescence, but a cure cannot be
achieved until the nation's buying
power has been restored, the Amer
ican Federation , of Labor declared
today through its monthly survey of
business.
The survey stated that the stock
market had shown its recent rice was
not justified by actual business im
provement. Signs cf that improve
ment, it said, were coming rlowly,
the unemployment rinc was checked
in August, but 11,400,000 workers
were stiil jobless.
"The gain3 taken together are too
modest to rouse enthusiasm, but they
do hint that since the end of finan
cial panic we may have entered a
period of convalescence," th3 survey
declared. "Confidence i3 spreading,

Lincoln, Sept. 26. D. F. Felton,
deputy secretary of the Nebraska
agriculture department, Monday said
ho could see no reason why farmers
and stockmen engaged in raising and
feeding cattle should be charged a
higher rate of interest for loans from
the Reconstruction Finance Corp.
than other groups.
The Reconstruction Finance Corp.
announced Saturday the interest rate
on cattle loans from the regional

would be 7 per cent. Felton said he
was certain banks, railroads and oth

Greed Said to
be at the Root
of Depression
Catholic Charities Keeting Opens at
Omaha With an Address
by President.
Omaha. Led by Rev. Franci3 J.
Backman, archbishop of Dubuque.
Ia., and Rev. John J. Glennon, arch-bi.-hep
cf St. Louis, hundreds of Cath
olic charity workers gathered at St.
Cecilia's ccthedral here Sunday to
attend the religious ceremonies
marking the opening of the eight
eeth annual national conference of
Catholic charities.
After the opening ceremonies a
scries cf conferences were held in
the cftsrnoon, followed by a public
meeting at night at which Jame3 F.
Murphy of Detroit, president of . the
conference, a3 a leading epeaker.
In his opening address, Mr. Mur
phy said:
"Whatever else historians may re
cord of tbi3 depression there i3 one
feature they aro certain to note
the suddennces of the surprise with
which it took the world. Statesmen,
economists and business men were ac
claiming the final defeat of poverty.
Social . workers had discarded the
word 'charity' and the remnant of re
lief had been taken out of the hands
of uublie poor commissions and glori
fied into family case work by private
family agencies. The poor box in
njoat churcheg was so cunningly hid
d?;i -a, to, dey.dispovery,''; ...
,"We say . with Leo XIII and with j
Pius, that greed and that , in all
claspes of society is the root cause
of this depression, and we say with
them, that the love of material
wealth, both individual and nation
al, must first be brought within
bounds before we can have any sound
and lasting recovery."
Mr. Murphy concluded hl3 address
with the assertion that he "saw lit
tie of comfort In htis pre-election
boom, and even If it be the begin
ning of recovery, at least this winter
and probably this whole year will
know the same, if not greater de
mands upon our charities," and
urged hi3 fellow delegates "to plan
well this week and then go back to
cur work."
Frank P. Walsh, chairman of the
New York state power commission,
and a nationally known labor au
thority, outlined relief work that Is
being done thru the organization of
co-operative groups in which the un
employed all bend their efforts to
ward aiding each other.
He asserted he saw in these groups
the best end . most easily handled
method of dealing with the problems
of relief. Thru organization of such
groups, he said, the unemployed and
the needy can exchange with each
other whatever they can produce
with theTr labor. State Journal.
