Hoover's Repeal Scheme Fails to Meet Approval of Mrs.

Boole SEATTLE, Aug. U. Mrs. Ella A. Boole of Brooklyn, N.

president of the Woman's Christian Temperance union, commenting here tonight to The Associated Press on President Hoover's proposal that the states deal with the prohibition question individually, said, "The proposed plan will be opposed by dry forces every step of the way." Mrs. Boole, here for the national convention of the organization, declared. "The amendment suggested plans for a destructive change." She asserted it will not solve the problem, "but will create new problems even more difficult." Mrs. Boole's statement said: "I am glad that Mr. Hoover states that the first duty of the president is to enforce the laws as they exist; and that he announces that he will continue to do so to the best of his ability.

"The difficulties of enforcement are many, but the statistics of the department of justice and the treasury bear witness to increasing efficiency In enforcement, while the department of commerce testifies to the economic and social benefits of prohibition. "The drys recognize the importance of state co-operation, but it is the opponents of national prohibition who are seeking to repeal state laws and who are crippling law enforcement. Laws should not be-changed at the demand of law violators." Farley Surprised at G. O. P.

While some of the security and commodity markets lagged today, the cause of more prosperous prices was vigorously advanced in bonds, and in cotton and silver. A feeling in various speculative quarters that the advance in stocks may have been proceeding too rapidly, particularly without benefit of more favorable signs from such barometers as electric power consumption and freight car loadings, brought further flurries of profit taking, but a few issues managed to make headway in the face of it.

Mrs. Roosevelt (Continued From Page One) to Washington to don an all-white costume for the garden party. First she made clear the distinction between the republican Roosevelts and the democratic Roosevelts.

Though Candidate Roosevelt Is but a distant cousin to the late President Theodore Roosevelt's family, his wife, a Roosevelt before her marriage, was Teddy's niece, and Alice Roosevelt Longworth served as her bridesmaid. But this close consanguinity will not mean any republican Roosevelt votes for the democratic Roosevelt. Mrs. Roosevelt's second major stroke of strategy was in sitting at the same table with Mrs. Oann, sister of Vice President Curtis.

That was interpreted by the onlookers as showing Roose-veltlan amity toward the entire ticket in spite of all the pother there was In Chicago about Teddy Roosevelt Jr. wanting the vice preeldency. and his sister Alice being there to get it for him if possible against the full fighting forces cf Dolly Gann.

riTirirr 417 Purchases Would Inject New Life in American Trade Is Belief NEW YORK, Aug. 11. U.P.) Soviet Russia is reported planning an international bond issue to obtain hundreds' of millions, of dollars, with the possibility seen that hope increased purchases of American goods will speed up recognition by the United States government. The bond would be distributed through the Central bank of Moscow, and Its correspondents In this country and other foreign nations. The Chase National bank of New York and the International acceptance bank.

It was reported, wiU handle the transfers of funds and deliver some of the bond certificates. If funds derived from the sale of such, bonds were used to any considerable degree for purchase of American goods, they would Inject new life Into American trade, which has fallen to a mere shadow of what It was with Russia In 1931. In 1931 the United States sold more than $115,000,000 worth of manufactured products to soviet Russia. Trade this year has been on the basis so far of about $11,000,000 annually, just about one-tenth of that in 1931. America's chief trade with Russia was in sale of Industrial and agricultural machinery, electrical equipment and automobiles.

She was America's second best automobile customer in 1931. Her total sales from the outside world since 1924 were estimated at about $3,000,000,000. part of which was financed by notes or credits arranged In countries with which she traded. Dozens of engineers and trade experts who have assisted Russia in promotion of its five-year plan have returned to this country urging that the United States obtain Russian trade. Russia, they pointed out, has lived up to all international trade agreements, has met payments when due and has otherwise conducted herself as any nation with an established credit, recognized or not.

The plan to sell bonds, as reported In New York and abroad, called for payment of 10 percent interest annually. The bonds would mature In 10 years, but would be redeemed on demand, the report said, by payment of par plus accrued interest in the currency of the country In which they were sold. WASHINGTON. Aug. 11.

U.R The prospect of new International trade with Russia would be warmly welcomed by the administration, it was learned on reliable authority today. Officials have been keenly disappointed by the recent slump in Russian purchases. Whether Russian buying campaign would promote recognition of the soviet state, however. Is questionable. A high administration official told the United Press he was convinced that recognition would have no effect on trade and that Russian purchases here depended entirely on adequate credit.

WASH OILING STATION 704 Central Ave. Great Falls, Montana Says Clarke Had Talked of Suicide Testimony at Trial Reveals That He Was Narcotic Addict at Time of Death MIAMI, Aug. 11. P) Testimony that Haden Clarice, for whose slaying Capt. W.

N. Lancaster Is on trial, was a narcotic addict, that he frequently discussed suicide and that he suffered In New Orleans from an illness with which he was afflicted at the time of his death, was given today by Dick Lavender, former companion of Clarke. "He frequently discussed suicide with me," Lavender testified. He said they had been drinking companions in New Orleans, where Clarke was employed by a newspaper. "Clarke thought I planned to com- mit suicide, and told me the way to go about it was to do it in a big way.

He said a pistol was the best method." Lavender said. The description of Clarke's habite followed completion, for the time at any rate, of examination of Captain Lancaster, and injection into the esse of the attitude of spectators and one state witness. Judge H. F. Atkinson ordered the Jury from the court room while he delivered a warning against any further demonstrations.

His comment was the result of applause and laughter yesterday when James M. Carson, chief of defense counsel, apparently won a verbal tut with State's Attorney N. Vernon Hawthorne. Hawthorne at that time referred to a statement by Lancaster that some of the letters from Clarke and Mrs. Keith-Miller to him had disappeared.

t. he state has been accused of concealing thoae letters," the prosecutor said. "The state has never seen them." "The defense has made no accusation," Carson retorted, "but does the state wish to plead not guilty anyway?" It required a threat by the Judge to clear the courtroom to restore order. J. P.

Moe deputy United States marshal, testified that M. G. Tancrel, state witness had threatened to kill Lancaster if they were placed in the snme ceil Plan for Mexican B. E. F.

Colony Is Rejected by Rubio MEXICO CITY. Aug. II. fU.R) President Ortiz Rubio today rejected a request from Doak Carter, Huntington, W. former chief of staff of the bonus expeditionary force, for support of a project to settle 29,000 American war veterans In Mexico.

Another bid for approval cf a similar project was sent the president by Charles P. Reininger of Huntington, who stated he was "convinced of Carter's ability to finance a colonization project," adding that he had offered him. on liberal terms, land purchased from Mormon colonies at Colonia Diaz, state of Chihuahua. President Ortiz Rubio, in a cable to Carter, stated that Mexico had her hands full in taking care of 20,000 unemployed and it would be unfair to give preference to foreign elements.

change must avoid the return of the saloon. With united effort we can and will turn the tide toward the restoration of business, employment and agriculture. Not regimented mechanisms but free men is our goal. I shall invite and welcome the help of very man and woman the preservation of the United States for the happiness of It people. I am today organizing the private industrial and financial resources of the country to co-operate effectively with the vast governmental instrumentalities which, we have in motion, so we may move from defense to powerful attack upon the depression.

These programs are not in the past tense they are in action. I shall propose such other measures as may be necessary from time to time to meet the changing situations For the first time in the history of depressions, dividends, profit and cost of living have been reduced before wages have suffered. We have been more free from Industrial conflict through strikes and lockouts and all forms of social disorder than even In normal times. I am hopeful of such drastic reduction of world armament as will save the taxpayers in debtor countries a large part of the cost cf their payments to us. Our measures have repelled attacks of fear and panic.

We have maintained the financial integrity of our government. Above all, we have maintained the sanctity of the principles upon which this republic has grown great. Government by the people haa not been defiled. In the race after the false gods of materialism men and groups have forgotten their country. Equality of opportunity contains no conception of exploitation by any selfish, ruthless, class-minded men or groups.

They have no place in the American system. The solution of our many problems which arise from the shifting scene of national life la not to be found in haphazard experimentation or by revolution. Ofttimes the tendency of democracy in presence of national danger is to strike blindly, to listen to demagogues and slogans, all of which would destroy and would not save. We have refused to be stampeded Into such courtes. Thla world needs peace.

It must have peace with Justice. We shall enter no (foreign) agreements committing us to any future course of action or which call for use of force to preserve peace. Despfte the dislocation of economic life our great tools, of production and distribution are more efficient than ever before. With the humility of one who by necessity has stood in the midst f-f this (economic) storm I can say with pride that the distinction for these accomplishments belongs not to the government or to any Individual. It is due to the intrepid soul Of our people.

I have but one desire; that Is. to see my country again on the road to prosperity which shall be more sane and lasting through the lesson of experience. I rest the case of the republican party on the intelligence and the Just discernment of the American people. Should my countrymen again place upon me the responsibilities Of this high office. I ehall carry forward the work of reconstruction.

That RODEO SINGER WRITES POEM TO PRESIDENT 'Powder River Jack" Stops Over Here on Way Home From Calgary Stampede Jack Lec, the original "Powder River Jack," accompanied by his wife, Kittie Lee, arrived in Great Falls Thursday evening enroute from Calgary to their log cabin home near Deer Lodge.

They will stop at Helena to call upon Gov. J. E. Erlckson and other state officials. Powder River Jack, nationally known rodeo entertainer and author of western poetry, is now writing a poem to President Hoover at the request of Ted Joslund, private secretary of the president, who is a personal friend of the Montanan and who was largely instrumental in bringing the cowboy artist into the limelight in New York.

Washington, D. and Boston. During his last visit to Washington. Jack played and sang for President Hoover In the White House. He was presented with a new guitar for this occasion and the song, "Tying a Knot In the Devil's Tall," was recorded by the Victor people.

Chief among his poetry work is the book. "Powder River, Let 'Er Buck." The song which he sang for the president was composed by himself. Jack was the featured artist at the recent Calgary stampede and at the Pendleton, roundup entertained thousands with his western songs. In a recent Issue of The West magazine one of his poems was printed. It portrays the artist riding a snakey broncho in order that he might raise funds with which to go back to his sweetheart.

The cowboy author, who "punched" cows in the. Powder River country in the early days, said he thought more of his little home at Deer Lodge than all the bit? hotels and public life in the east. Both Mr. and Mrs. Lee dress in true cowboy and cowgirl fashion.
