ODLIN ATTACKS "BRAIN TRUST"
Republican Senate Nominee Declares Group Could Not Becognize Farm.
AVERS LAWS ARBITRARY
Questions Public Sufferance of Situation—Charge Civil Service Rules Violated.
COLFAX, Wash, Oct. 5.—After engine trouble en rout* from Dayton caused him to miss a luncheon meeting scheduled at Pullman yesterday,
Reno Odlin, republican nominee for the United States senatorship, arrived here in time to assail the "brain trust" in a speech last night.
"Dr. Tugwell and his kind have plowed under cotton and have described in glowing terms the immense benefit its farmers were going to obtain from fantastic plans," Odlin said.
"How long will people continue to look on, while every principle of sane progress is violated by arbitrary laws springing from the minds of men
who wouldn't know a farm if one jumped up and hit them in the eyes?
"It seems unfair, however, to pin Dr. Tugwell down to earthly things. His home is in the clouds."
Turning again against government bureaucracies, Odlin said, "There can be no defense of a political machine, that ignores civil service rules and
adds 95,000 new political appointees, who must be paid by the taxpayers."
