Washington, July 8-- With cam-* • ; paign headquarters of b6th parties mov^d to Nfew ^orl^ and Chicago, this political concentration camp is somewhat depopulated. The fa£t that the seat of government is officially located here is all that-prevents the abandonment for the next five months. It >s noteworthy that doings at the National Capitol are still matters of ab- . > 'sorbifig interest to the average citizen. Millions of voters,are affected by .< • • the" avalanche of decirees and Federal '• >regulati'ons» which flow from the multitude of ag^neies.

Only a few remained ort the job here for tlje - Sole purpose of paving the way for a friendly reception on their return to the bailiwick. Letters from constituents which were ignored during the' last few weeks have been resurrected from the files as a means of winning a vote or two. Appeals which heretofore were considered trivial are , * now become a turning issue of service-- anything to overcome the pres- "tige and influence lost while opponents criticized on the home grounds. The new fiscal-year began last •week. The Government is operated . tn this schedule. The multitude of Federal agencies which sought new powers and larger appropriations started the season on a gipantie' scale.

When Kansas closed its fiscal year June 30, there was an hand a cash balance of approximately £1,250,000, according; to the^^^imate of A. R. Jones, state accountant. This is nearly a quarter of a million dollars more than the cash balance. at the close of the 1935 fiscal year. "*«r- L|» 5. Is Far in Red as 1936 Fiscal Year Closes WASHINGTON, D. C.--This was the record of the Roosevelt administration as the fiscal year 1936 came to a close June 30: A federal debt of 33 billiort 913 million dollars. Spending of 8 billion 793 million dollars during the fiscal year, more th&n two dollars for every one taken in. A budget bureau estimate of expenditures of $8,272,554,370 during the new fiscal year, without any alibi such as the veteran's bonus or invalidation of processing taxes. A federal debt that would be 38 billion 600 million werS jt not for expert juggling of the figures by the New Deal treasury department, an appeal to the industrial East, one; which does not include in its estiin his birthplace in Pennsylvania and the second at Chautauqua, N. Y., where he spent many summers. . The Landon invasion of Gotham hinges on the effect of his initial talks on the voters along the Atlantic sea- j board. The G.O.P. concedes President Roosevelt the palm as an orator but uses his convention acceptance speech J to illustrate his unwillingness co get I down to earth and talk real fatvs. It J seems that the G.O.P. is hopeful that, Landon will be accepted by the pub-' lie as a Coolidge--a man of simple' pungent statement and a doer of' deeds. To this end, the Roosevelt | promises and performances have j been graphically chartered to show, the differences between the candidates for the highest office. ^ Campaigners now have their" fnindS _ ¥ . m arithmetical knots.

The same treatment is accorded these Townsendites. In New York State the probable effects of Gov. Lehman succumbing to pressure to run for a third term are a topic of political conversations. Republicans believe that Lehman's long hesitancy has cost him heavily as a vote-getter for the New Deal in the pivotal Empire State. The calculators ^devote attention to the possible effect of the third party movement on the electoral vote. It is possible to upset the popular vote by garnering from five to ten percent of the electoral votes. These probabilities are publicly discounted but 'privately a sore spot for veteran party leaders. 5.83,196. President Roosevelt proposed to reduce the number by at least 25 per cent, but in March of 1936 the number of civilian employees was 806,035, an Increase of 222,859. WASHINGTON, D. C.--Agricultural imports ^luring 1935, which saw grains and meats, as well as their by-products and substitutes, multiply again and again under Roosevelt easy trade policies, were estimated here to have reached a total value of $1,391,- 099,397. YM?<?Fts of one item alone--cottonseed oil, a lard substitute--out of a long list, denied opportunity for self support to 403,197 rural persons, by displacing th§ production of 3,692,000 acres of American farm land. A total of 33,463,336 acrejs w^jre displaced by all the imports together, with a total of 1,741,000 rural persons denied the opportunity of self-support. Computing Land Displacements. The displacement of land is computed from the acreage which would have been necessary to produce the amount of each item imported, if it had been produced in America, rather than by the coolie peasant labor of foreign countries? --• • - For instance, during 1935, there were imported into the United States 43,242,296 bushels of corn, according to the United States department of commerce. By dividing that total by the American 10 year average yield per acre, it can be shown that the corn imports would have required 1,814,000 acres for their production in this country. Effect of Pork Imports. Such estimates of the effect of other items of import are equally revealing. Imports of 5,297,335 pounds of pork, hams and bacon during 1935 displaced the production of 68,070 acres of American farm land. The 27,438,870 bushels of wheat imported could have been produced on 2,220,000 acres here, taking some 61,626 rural inhabitants off the Telief rolls.

CHICAGO, ILL.--John D. M. Hamilton, new chairman of the Republican National committee, opened the Republican Presidential election campaign in the West with a ringing, straightforward declaration of the misdeeds of the Roosevelt administration and .its fear of obliteration which the public recognition of these misdeeds hasproduc§d. His speecn was delivered at ff dinner given him by the Republican Finance committee for Illinois. As he finished upon the note: "There can be only one outcome in November--a victory for America!" the more than 3,000 listeners cheered wildly. It was the largest political dinner in Chicago's histoPy; l,2o0 were turnecl away. In the early passages of his speech, Hamilton dwelt upon the "phoney" character of the claimed New Deal confidence in re-election, and endorsement ,of its candidate-- confidence he said was unreliable for the very fact that *t has been bought with payroll jobs and the taxpayers' money. Points to Parley's ?ean. Hamilton also cited the. futile imi? tations of the Republican platformi advocated by President Roosevelt with respect to the Democratic monopoly plank, the civil service plank and the plank on balancing the budget. He characterized these imitations as sincere flattery. "There has been a sudden end to the talk that the Republican party would carry only six states in November," Hamilton declared. "On the contrary, the chairman of the Democratic National committee felt obliged to tell the delegates to the Philadelphia convention that confidence was not enough. And in the last few days supporters of the administration have been disheartened by the extraordinary spectacle of their candidate for President so uncertain of carrying his own state that he must draft the aid of a governor, whom he himself placed in office, at the sacrifice of that man's own personal preferences and political future." Hamilton expressed sympathy for James A. Farley, "jobmaster general of the New Deal," declaring?- "He has undertaken to see that his candidates are re-elected in November and quite plainly he doesn't know how it can be done." The G. O. P. chairman said the administration's claims for its agricultural policy were singularly modest. Betrayal oI Farmer. "It neglects," he said, "to mention the extraordinary increase in importations of farm products, which are most certainly directly attributable to the Roosevelt administration. It neglects to say that from 1932 to 1935 imports of raw foodstuffs increased 41 per cent and of manufactured foodstuffs 49 per cent. It neglects to state that in that period importations of wheat jumped from three thousand bushels to over twenty-seven million bushels; and imports of corn jumped from 344 thousand bushels to over 43 million bushels; that imports of rice went from 19 to 53 minion pounds." Hamilton predicted that citizens would not be fooled out of realizing the excessive burden of taxes. "They will note the perfectly correct horror with which Mr. Roosevelt views gambling with other people's money, but at the same time they will note»he fails to mention the gambling in which irresponsible New Deal officials have indulged, not only with our money but with money which our childron will have to produce."
