NEVER MADE ANY SUCH STATEMENTS AS YOU QUOTE IN YOUR ISSUE AUG. 8. AT NO TIME DID I THINK, MUCH LESS "CHATTERED," ABOUT A SALE OF CRUM ELBOW AS AN ACT WHICH WOULD "ANNOY FRANKLIN A GREAT DEAL." HONEST, HARDWORKING, DEBT-FREE PEOPLE COULD NOT ANNOY OTHER HARD-WORKING DIRT FARMERS AND WOULD DIMINISH RELIEF. THAT THE TRANSFER TO FATHER DIVINE WAS CONCEIVED IN SPITE IS NOT TRUE AND IS TYPICAL OF NEW DEAL DEFENSE PROPAGANDA SENT OUT BY SMUT AGENTS DREW PEARSON, WALTER WINCHELL AND ROBERT ALLEN UNDER THE DIRECTION OF SMEAR MASTER MICHELSON. WHEN AGAIN THEIR CONCEITS...

...Cartoonist Harold Morton Talburt of the Scripps-Howard chainpapers drew the week's ablest Third Termite cartoon-a paraphrase of Democratic Pressagent Charles Michelson's remark of last fortnight that "duty" might compel Franklin Roosevelt to run again (TIME, Aug. 15). While the President in uniform stands contentedly on the second (term) sack and a harassed elephant pitcher stands afraid to pitch lest the runner steal third, Mr. Manager Michelson runs out on the diamond shouting: "Aw quit worryin' about him!

...over his office to Controller Robert C. White, Democrat, during the fall election period. Indignant, Mayor Wilson called off his vacation. When the Pennsylvania Supreme Court last week tied up until at least mid-September both a grand jury and a legislative investigation of Governor George Howard Earle (TIME, Aug. 8 et ante), the lively Governor took off with Mrs. Earle in a State-owned plane for a month's vacation in Central America. As a parting gesture he called on his Republican foe, District Attorney Carl B. Shelley of Dauphin County (Harrisburg), to arrest and try him instanter...
