BY GEORGE DURNO
Attack
Republican strategists are plan-
ning an intensive outburst of ora-
tory and opinion Immediately after
adjournment — all aimed at the
vitals of the New Deal.
This is to be expected in a con-
gressional campaign year but de-
velopment of the attack will be
particularly interesting to watch
because of the ultimate objectives
in view.
A national weekly of large cir-
culation is set to print a blast in
mid-June under the name of a
man well known to the country.
This may be regarded as a keynote.
* * *
In addition to hopes of making
a good showing at the polls next
November the Republicans have
high ambitions to undermine out-
standing policies of the Roosevelt
administration once and for all.
NRA will be a focal point of at-
tack.
The report of the Darrow board
condemning Blue Eagle unfairness
to the little fellow will be used
widely.
* * *
Emergency
When the U. S. supreme court
resumes its sessions next fall a
decision is expected which will be
more far reaching In Its effect on
NRA than any handed down to
date.
So far the highest tribunal—as
well as most other courts—has rec-
ognized the existence of a national
emergency and upheld the extraor-
dinary |lowers vested In the pres-
ident.
O. O. P. strategy this summer
will be to Influence public opinion
to a belief the emergency Is no
longer acute enough to warrant
heavy-handed application of this
unusual authority on industry and
finance.
• • •
Although the supreme court as
such can not be influenced its
members are not unaware of the
trend of public sentiment on mat-
ters of government.
When President Henry I. Harrl-
man told the recent meeting of
the U. 8. chamber of commerce
that President Roosevelt's vast
mantle of power was "neither legal
nor desirable" he was voicing a
slogan which will be drummed
home In every sector by the op-
position.
If they can only get enough of
the little business men sold In the
Idea O. O. P leaders feel they will
have accomplished their first mile
on ihe long, long road to Tipper-
ary.
• * a
Second
8!tting on the supreme bench is
a man who might possibly emerge
as opponent to President Roose-
velt in 1936 He is Harlan Plske
Stone.
As attorney general In the cab-
inet of Calvin Coolldge, Justice
i became an intimate oi Her-
bert Boom secretary of
commerce. This friendship con-
tinued during the time Mr. Hoo-
ver was In the White House and
Stone had gone on the court.
Many observers think he Is Mr
Hoover's second choice for the next
Republican nomination — the first
choice bring himself.
These slate me tits are not meant
Ip Impugn Justice Stones motives
In connection with any supreme
court decisions affecting the New
is id His high standing and ability
as a jurist are unquestioned. It
i interesting merely to note a
IKililiral situation which might
arise automatically If Ihe public
should deride the New Deal had
gone too far and the court should
confirm that view.
• • •
Labor
A fight within the ranks of or-
ganized labor over future leader-
ship Is something Ihe Republicans
are hoping will materialize to dis-
rupt tiie Democratic front. Many
think such a scrap Is inevitable
before 1036 Younger men are
manifesting di. allsfacllon with Wil-
liam Oreen's continuance as pres-
Irlenl of the American Federation
of labor.
At the moment labor Is rather
solidly behind President Roosevelt.
The A F. of L was dying on Its
feel when NRA came along
The O. O P hasn't much chance
of winning over any union sup-
port directly, Rs only break would
he a hoi internal labor fight with
all Ihe bitter aftermath*
• • •
rahinct
Htories and rumors have been
rmpplng up galore of late that
various members of President
Roosevelt's cabinet were about to
resign or be transferred to other
posts.

rd that Hecreiary of Ihe Treasury

KOHI.ES DENIES KIDNAP
i! wsoM is run
Carlos O. Robles, assistant Pima
county attorney and uncle of six-
year-old June, flatly denied today
rumors the child’s kidnapers had
received *10.000 In ransom money
before she was released from her
desert prison last night.
Physicians watched over the lit-
tle girl today anxiously to ascer-
tain how seriously she may have
been affected by an ordeal which
might easily have killed her; blaz-
Uig days of a sun that burned
her olive skin and chilly lonely
nights In Iron chains that gripped
her Mender ankles.
An unsigned letter postmarked
Chicago gave directions that led
to her rescue by her uncle, Carlos
Robles and Clarence Houston. Pima
county attorney.
Letter Save* Life
The letter that saved the girl's
life was received yesterday at the
office of Oovernor Moeur In Phoe-
nix It gave explicit instructions
for finding the girl "burled under
a cactus” near Tucson. The use
of the word burled sent a chill
Ilmen the barks of the hunters

on a desert road, the searchers be-

Houston was separated from
Robles when he stumbled onto the
prison.
Prison Like Grave
The child was Utterly rescued
from the grave. Her prison was a
box-like hole dug In the desert
nine and a half mile* from her
home. It had virtually the same
dimension* a* a grave except for

When they found her ahe was
111 and too weak to walk She ap-
peared calm but the horror* of
her experience had written them-
selves upon her The barbarity
of the girl’s kidnapers was without
present day parallel.

or timid when her rescuers arrived.
