POLITICAL SIREN, SAYS
SECRETARY A. HYDE
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 28.-Describing the Democratic presidential nominee as a political siren and comparing Herbert Hoover with Abraham Lincoln, Secretary of Agriculture Arthur Hyde told his audience here last night that President Hoover was not on trial but that the American people were, at this election.
Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt and his henchmen are sneering at this administration which is leading the world out of the depression, Mr. Hyde asserted, adding that the Democrats speak in generalities only and that they have no definite program for any national problem.
After three and one-half years of bloody sacrifice Abraham Lincoln was dubbed a failure by many; called a baboon; but what would have become of our country if Lincoln had not been returned to the White House! And now, in 1932, there is talk of wanting a change. Are our three years of depression worse than those three years in Lincoln's time? I would rather see the man who has just put into motion the machinery for not only national but world-wide economic recovery, run it, not a stranger.
