Harris With the November 8 electloa only two weeks away a definlts trend toward Republicanism It noticable throughout Utah, according to a survey just completed by leading Q. O. P. campaign speakers. Dr. Franklin S. Harris, Republican nominee for the United States senate and contestant for the seat of Senator Elbert D. Thomas, said the "Utah farmer is convinced the administration's reciprocal trade treaties are inimical to his interests." "Everywhere in the state I found livestock men and dirt farmers blaming the present agricultural program tor their plight, as indicated by the ruinously low prices, in which the Utah farmer finds Dr. j himself", he said. "If I am elected my major objective will be to preserve the American market for the American farmer." Dr. Harris explained the sheepmen were mainly dissatisfied because the price of wool during the 1933-3period was 21.2 percent below the average price for the 2 period of Republican supremacy. LeRoy B. Young, Republican candidate for the seat of Abe Murdock, also pledged his efforts to stabilize 7 1921-193- the agricultural market. "If I am elected I will wage an aggressive fight to see that compulsory, restrictive and coercive features of the farm bill are repealed and that the reciprocal trade treaty powers are taken away from the executive branch of the government and returned to the people's representatives where they belong," he asserted. Dean F. Brayton, candidate for J. Will Robinson's congressional seat, also blames the plight of the farmer to the administration's farm legislation. "Our opponents are so disheartened by the antagonism to the collapse of the farm legislation they have sent to Washington to have one of the leading bureaucratic theorists come here to defend the program", Mr. Brayton said. "And what does he do but assert that aid is coming if we can get international cooperation. It doesn't take an expert to know that the whole New Deal farm program has collapsed.

This night has been used since the building of the chapel when elections cccured as most people like to enjoy the evening out and listen to election returns with their friends. The Homecoming will be, as in past years, consisting of a banquet, auction, program and dance. It has a purpose social contact and the raising of the ward maintenance funds for the year. The selling of tickets and soliciting will be confined strictly within the bounds of the Second Ward for members of the church; but, of course, an invitation to the First Ward and all others is extended to attend. The Relief Society, Trimary and the Young Women's M. I. A. will have charge of the banquet, the Sunday school and the Priesthood quorums the auction and the Young Men's M. I. A. the tickets. The bishopric urges all members to buy a ticket to the banquet, as this money is applied to the ward maintenance and applies to their allotment. Further details of the homecoming will be published in next week's issue of the Leader. Tre-mont- two-fol- d A well attended Republican "Tea", was held in the Midland Hotel dining room Wednesday evening. Four such, gatherings were held during the day, the others being at Willard, Brigham and Garland. All County candidates: were introduced and each made short response. County Chairman Alf Freeman in-- 1 troduced the guest of honor andi speaker of the evening, LeRoy B. Young, candidate for U. S. Representative. Mr. Young is well and favorably known to the people of Box Elder county and Tremonton. In his remarks Mr. Young paid tribute to the Youth movement in politics. He regarded it as a healthy sign, declaring that the young people of today must either benefit or suffer in their later years as a result of today's governmental policies and thus should be permitted to help frame those policies. Traveling over the state, Mr. Young noted a marked return to the sound policies of Republican government. Commenting on the unemployment situation, he told of a graduation class in a Colorado college marching out, from their graduation exercises with a banner unfurled above them reading "W. P. A. here we come." He deplored this situation and expressed confidence that the day would again return when there would be employment in private industry for ev ery willing worker. The W. P. A., Mr. Young said, had been a worthy move- ment, but he hoped that the young people would not be satisfied with' this as a goal for their energies. Mr. Young spoke highly of the candidacy of Dr. Franklin S. Harris for U. S. Senator, stating that Mr. Harris had been employed by various foreign countries due to his high: standing as an authority on agricul-- l tural questions. He further stated' that Mr. Harris was second to no, one in his knowledge cf the State of Utah and her problems. Mrs. Ervin Stohl, precinct chair-ladhad charge of arrangements. An orchestra formed of a group of high school boys furnished the instrumental music. Mrs. Con Steffen, accompanied by Mrs. Adam Brenkman, rendered two vocal solos. Thursday evening a rally and free show were enjoyed at the Liberty Theatre. The regular run picture was shown. County candidates were seen in preview on the stage between shows The theatre was well filled with enthusiastic citizens from various parts of the Bear PJiver valley. j plus a profit." Chief Justice William H. Folland, seeking to retain his seat in the state supreme court, has advocated generally a judiciary in the state and a solidification of constitutional government. All four candidates returned from a state wide tour optimistic that the chances of putting Utah in the Republican column were brighter today than any time in the past eight years.

It will consist of the latest freezing machinery known in the cold storage business, which includes a sharp freezer that will freeze any size piece cf meat in two hours. This method prevents the breaking of fis sures and the loss of juice of thej meat, as is the case in the slower freezing operations. In connection with the freezing, plant and storage plant, there will be a room set aside for custom cutting for those desiring their meat cut and wrapped before storage. Before putting in the plant, MrJ McDermaid went to Salt Lake and spent several days in the study of the methods in order to obtain the best known in this type of business. Bears To Encounter Weber Warriors Friday (B. It. II. S. Journalism Iepr.) In what is expected to be the feature home game of the season, the local Bears will be found entertaining on Friday afternoon the mighty War-- ; riors from Weber High School. Since! this is the last home game, a near! capacity crowd is expected to fill thej new bleachers. After a week's Coach Tripp! has been sending his charges through several long work-outand stated that they had shown more spirit and fight than in any previous week. The improvement of Blain Hickman, reserve guard, was very noticeable and he is certain to se-- action in Friday's encounter. Ray White, who was injured in the Ogden game, has fully recovered and has been hitting the line much harder and skirting the ends better than usual. Fred Allen, another of the crippled backs, reported for practice Monday and will be in a suit for the game Friday. Cnarh Trinn intimntfrt that hfu siarung nne-u- p lor ine vveDer lussei would include Ferris Nielsen, center; Vere Johnson and Alfred White, guards; Hartley White and either Russell Roe or Capwell Jenkins, tackles; Trude Taylor and Bob Wassom, ends; Grant Cullimore, quarterback; Reid Bishop and Ray White, halfbacks and Vern Oyler, fullback. Captain Bishop will call the offensive signals as well as run the defensive formations. The Weber team is reported to be the strongest ever assembled at the' school, and its record proves it to be, such. Although they have won but; one game, the statistics of their other games show much more impressive data.

We have informed the Republicansr that they have the same privilege for free discussion of political issues. Else where, you will find Republican and Democratic issues of the campaign.) Franklin S. Harris, candidate for U. S. Senator on the Republican ticket is spending much of his time in denouncing legislation enacted under the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Tuesday night at Salt Lake he singled out the sugar issue, which reminds us of a sugar incident that took place in two or three communities in Box Elder County six years ago. Senator Smoot, then a candidate for said that if Roosevelt and Thomas were elected that smoke would cease to come from the sugar factories of this state and read a telegram he had received indicating that there would be free sugar, which, would ruin the industry. Just what happened? Today the smoke is still belching from the factory and grinding one of the largest beet acreages for many years. The final payment of the sugar company was made on. the 20th of this month. The benefit payments of the Federal government, made possible by these two men and others, who were going to destroy the industry, brought the final beet payment for those who had received the conservation payments , a ton and $7.01 a ton for those who did not. This is the highest price paid for beets for many years. And, of course these payments will continue for another year, under the Democratic program, which will give the farmer profits in beet growing for the first time in years. Mr. Harris spent considerable time in talking about curtailing of acreages There are still more than 2,000 acres available under the quoto in Box Elder county alone. Wheat in 1932, with a normal crop, was 27 cents. Today, with the largest crop in the history of the United States, under Democratic legislation, the complying farmer will receive at least 61 or 62 cents a bushel. Hogs are better than 8 cents, compared with 3 or 4 cents in 1932, and so on down the line. These wheat and beet payments have saved homes and farms of Republicans and Democrats alike, with the assistance of additional legislation which reduced interest by almost half and deferred principal payments until the farmers could get back on their feet. Under New Deal legislation, practically every city in Box Elder county has progressed fifty years, by the aid of Democratic legislation, over what it would Have done under its own power, as well as cities all over the nation. Bank deposits have been made secure. For the first time in history, labor has had a new deal. The sweat shop and the long hours of druggery in factories by minors have been abandoned. Old age has been made secure. The youth have been given work to conserve our forests and natural resources, to build and beautify the country. It has been possible for people to own their own homes under this same Democratic legislation that never could have otherwise owned a home. Industry has been helped, as well as been made to pay its share of the taxes. Education has been lifted on a new standard and unemployment compensation for those who are thrown out of work has been provided. Schools and other public buildings, water works and sewr rage for cities have been made possible by the WPA and PWA which never could have been accomplished otherwise, employing millions of men. While Mr. Hair is and his are demanding the abolition of these New Dial legislations, they are failing to offer anything in its place ex. cept a promise for rational government. Evidently the treatment of the farmer, the laborer and the average citizen with the same sort of treatment as the big industries and corporations have enjoyed under the Republican regime is not normal. President Roosevelt stands out as one of the greatest leaders in history an emancipator of the and a friend of the people. No, Mr. Harris, as ungrateful as we sometimes become, it is impossible to think that the American people will turn their back on the President and his supporters when they what has been accomplished under his administration for their benefit, to tho vague and unrelated promises of the Republican party. These scare talks of Mr, Harris and other Republican leaders are similar to the onea made six years ago by Republican leaders and will fall Just as short of being fulfilled as we know now that they did. th-i- t under-privilege- nt d |
