KRASCHEL ASKS VOTE FOR ALLEN Charges G.O.P. Deal on Election. AllenContinued from Page 1. former governor gave an informal talk in which he predicted that "if Barney Allen can turn the sixth district it will virtually insure Democratic success all the way down the line this fall." But, Kraschel said, it will not be enough to come out on top in a battle of words with Goodwin. "You've got to get out the vote," he said.

Allen said, "I am just a symbol of democracy fighting for a progressive cause." He declared that the election Tuesday is "a referendum which will mean either the repudiation or the upholding of Secretary of Agriculture' Wallace." It is a vital election, the candidate said, because it will be in the constituency of Wallace and the whole nation will be watching to see whether the administrator of the farm program will be sustained by his own constituents. Allen said that numerous appropriation bills are pending in gress and that while economy is essential "it must not be out of the hides of the victims taken adversity." "And," he said, "the government must not be turned back to the seekers of special interest and selfish privilege." Allen reiterated his pledge that "I am prepared to go to congress and fight for the farm program." "While in college in the 1920's," he said, "I was taught a very drastic lesson in economics when my father explained to me that the continuance of my education depended on the strictest family economy and an effort to earn some money on my own part because corn had dropped from $2.10 a bushel to 27 cents. "A Stern Lesson." "This was a sterner lesson than any I received in a classroom. Ever since then I have been interested in society's efforts through business, banking and political channels to keep abreast of adjustments made necessary by ever changing conditions." Senator Breen called Allen "a great warrior of the cause for humanity a fighter for progressiveness and liberalism in government." He accused Goodwin of "ducking and dodging" every issue in the campaign and contended that the Republican candidate "only wants a chance to see the sights in Washington and have a three months' vacation." The senator lauded Allen's administration of old age assistance, praised him for fighting "a bloc that wanted to make unemployment a profession."

Senator Gillette la.) said he and five Democratic colleagues, acting for a number of major farm organization, would offer legislation next week to return the farm credit administration to its former status as an independent ageney. The FCA, which has lent more than six billion dollars to farmers and has about half of this outstanding, was placed under Secretary Wallace and the agriculture department last July by executive order of President Roosevelt. Other Sponsors.

Gillette said other Democratic sponsors of the bill to reverse the presidential order would include Senators Minton of Indiana, party whip, Mead of New York, Truman of Missouri, Hatch of New Mexico and Miller of Arkansas. It is known group and several other senators, including Republican Leader McNary of Oregon and Capper have been meeting with spokesmen the American Farm Bureau federation, the Grange, the National Association of Livestock Producers, the National Co-operative council, and the National Wool Growers in drafting legislation.

Hill resigned as governor and was succeeded by A. Black, former Iowa State college agricultural instructor who has been closely associated with Wallace. As an independent agency, FCA followed what its officers contended was strict banking procedure. Black said recently that in the future the agency would take "a broad social view" and exercise extreme leniency cases where farmer borrowers were deemed to have a chance eventually meeting their obligations. The farm credit administration was set up to provide loans farmers on a co-operative from treasury-backed bonds to the public.
