ATTACKS RADICALS
Says People Expect More
Than “‘Petty Criticism
And Indifference’”’
RALEIGH, N. C. -«(#)— In the
Carolinas to deliver las¢y round
punches for prohibition repeal,
Postmaster General James Al
Farley left thay issue long enough
here Wednesday to lash, on behalf
of the administration, “petty crit«
icism from those so-called leaders
who have offered no program wor
thy of the name.”
Addressing a repeal rally before
departing to Columbia for a simi
lar mission Friday night, the dem
ocratic national chairman said “we
have not expected that everyone
would agree, without exception, to
all aspects of the great program
we were seeking to carry forward.
~ “We have not believed that per
fection could be obtained over
night, because we were aware of
the vast complexities of the prob

assert here with all the seriousness
and sincerity T can command, that
iwe have the right today, to expect
something more than petty criti

who have offered no program
worthy of the name, those who ap
peared indifferent to the tragedy
lof men, women and children visi
'ble on every side of them.
“They inay think it is good Am
ericanism for them to talk a lot
of stuff and nonsense about curs
being a program of state socialism.
“They forget, or seem to forget,
that their policies of indecision
and of timidness were doing more
than anything else to encourage
radicalism and soap-box oratory in
[thls country. And, they fail to re
alize also that complete coopera

‘covcry program is lacking today in
two quarters only—on the one
hand, the extreme reactionaries
and intensely selfish interests whe
fail to recognize their responsibili
ties to the American public and
the American worker, men who
seem to think only in terms of
profits and property rights and
never -in terms of human rightsor
a fairly distributed prosperity.”
Extreme Radicals
“On the other hand we have the
extreme radicals who would tear
down the wholg economic struc
ture of American business, con
!fiscate property, imprison every
man who owned an extra shirt and
[generally play havoc with the in

was foynded and has grown great.”

upon North Carolina voters ‘“to

GANGLAND TAKES
ANOTHER VICTIM
Teuber Murder Thought
Linked with Recent Kill
ing of Gus Winkler
i CHICAGO —(#®)— The name of
Harry Teuber—shot to. death by
an unidentified assassin as he sat
in a manicurist’s chair in a Nortn
Clarke streey barber shep — has
been added to the ever lengthen
ing list of gangland victims.
Hardly had his body been taken
from the shop, punctured by four
'pistol bullets, Thursday afternoon,
than the police began speculating
on a theory that Teuber’s death
might be a sequel to the recen:
islaying of Gus Winkler, north side
gangster, and the suicide of Edgar
B. Lebensberger, owner of the
Swanky 225 club.
~ Neighbors of the slain man told
police that Teuber had some con
nection with the club. He was 35
years old.
Teuber was greeted by an uni
dentified man who entered the
shop and shouted “Héllo Harry”
just before the gunman fired. Her
hert Pons, owner of the shop, told
police the slayer apparently enter
ed a rear room of the place and
fired through a door.
Miss Ethel Gauss, the manicur
ist, was sprayed with glass, but
fwas uninjured. .
At an apartrment the police said
they found Teuber's belongings
packed ready for shipment to New
Orleans and Police Lieutenant Otte
Erlanson said this evidence of an
impending flight supported the
theory that Teuber may have been
sonnected with ILebensberger,

GRAU RESIGNATION
'Hopes for Coalition Gov
~ernment in Cuba Virtu
ally Blasted Today
HAVANA,—()—The natcnalish
ileader, Carlos Mendieta, said Fri
day that he and his followers “are
asking that President Ramon
Grau San Martin resign.”
At the same;time the political
leader virtually blasted the hopes
of administration supporterg for a
coalitionn government.
“It: is not a question of cabinet
portfolios, nor Jjobs nor relpresen
tation 1n the gavernment,” said
Mendieta. ‘The question is that
President Gruacks the force of
rublie opinicn necessary to govern
Cuba,”
“You know,” he continued, that
my name has been proposed by the
revolutonary sectors for the provi
sioral presidency.” .
To a question: “were you not ac
tually offered the presidency?’ he
replied in the affirmative, but ad
ded, “I refused because of muany
considerations, among them princi
paily the nationalst agreement
not to accept positions in any pro
visional government.”
“In my personal opinion,” he
said, “none of the opposition sec
tors will accept a coalition propo
sal.”
Mendieta then left for a confer
ence at the residence of another
poiitical leader, Cosme De La Tor
riente.
Other nationalists expressed the
opinion that “the government is
dying,” and that they were “seek
ing an injejetion of new blood.”
