Hoover Drive
For President
Foreshadowed
Cnstitutional Issues May
Be Paramount After His
Challenge To Roosevelt
WASHINGTON, Aug. 12. - (') -
Herbert Hoover's challenge to Presi-
dent Roosevelt to inform the people
"openly" and "precisely" just how he
wants the Constitution changed was
regarded today as a major step in a
Republican drive for a knock-down-
and-drag out fight on constitutional
issues in 1936.
Stopping in Chicago on a trip east,
the former President hit at the New
Deal last night in a statement accus-
ing the administration of "dictator-
ial" demands, of trampling on "pri-
mary liberties of the people" and of
invading state's rights.
Directly or indirectly, he said, the
administration seeks to revise the
Constitution to concentrate powers in
Washington.
Demands Frankness
- Calling on the administration to
declare his intentions before Con-
gress adjourns andAo make it an
open fight on a specifically worded
amendment, he said:
"No matter how destructive an
amendment might be and even though
the people were persuaded to ill-ad-
vised action upon it, yet it would be
better for liberty to commit suicide
in the open rather than to be poisoned
by indirection in the capital of the
nation.
"No more momentous decision has
been raised since the Civil War. Com-
mon frankness requires that the Ad-
ministration come forward to the
people and declare precisely wherein,
under our Constitution, we can not
correct the evils and can not prevent
social maladjustments."
President Silent
While some Republicans and Demo-
crats interpreted the statement as a
bid by Mr. Hoover for the presiden-
tial nomination next year, others de-
nied this was necessarily the correct
way to construe it.
Meantime, there was no indication
that President Roosevelt, who re-
turned last night from a fishing trip
on the yacht Sequoia, would make
any statement. From Representative
Vinson (Dem., Ky.) came the com-
ment: "No Constitutional amend-
ment has been submitted and no-
body has said that one will be."
Declaring he had no doubt that
Mr. Hoover would run in 1936, Gib-
son (Rep., Vt.) called the statement
a "prelill4rtary .outline of his plat-
form." To Representative Dies
(Dem., Tex.) it was the former presi-
dent's "opening bid" while Senator
Nye (Rep., N. D.) thought it signified
a 'desire to be the candidate.''
One who took a different viewpoint
was Senator Steiwer (Rep., Ore.). He
said:

Work Speeded

Relief Projects
Four New Jobs Are Started
And Six More Will Be
Begun This Week a
LANSING, Aug. 12. - iP) - The
State Works Progress Administration
speeded up its work relief program
today.
Work relief projects were launched
in four communities which are de-
signed to employ 1,950 men by the
end of this week. Louis M. Nims, pro-
ject director, said that six other pro-
jects employing 1,860 men would be
launched before the end of the week.
A street repair program in Kal-
amazoo officially opened the Works
Progress Administration functions in
Michi'gan last Friday.
Nims said the first allotment of
money for the administration
amounted to $4,100,000. He said the
projects now contemplated will ab-
sorb the allotment.
The projects begun today were: A
street repair program at Grand Rap-
ids to employ 1,000 men now on re-
lief rolls; a similar program in Mus-
kegon to employ 300 men; a bridge
repair project in Lansing to employ
150 men, and city park repairs in
Flint to employ 400 workers, 200 of
whom were to goto work this morn-
ing.
Projects which Nims said will be-
gin this week were located in Battle
Creek where 100 men will be em-
ployed; Pontiac 500 men; Royal Oak
200 and Jackson 500 men. He esti-
mates repairs to University of Mich-
igan buildings will require 500 men

IRONWOOD, Mich., Aug. 12. -(I),
- Representative Frank E. Hook
(Dem., Mich.) said today he was "not
a bit ashamed" of the fact that his
father and three of his brothers were
receiving, or had received, govern-
ment relief.
The twelfth district representative
in Congress said his relatives were
forced to apply for relief before he
ran for Congress and that they were
"legitimately on the relief rolls."
"I had nothing to do with getting
them on relief, and I have nothing
to do with keeping them on the relief
rolls," he declared. "I'm not a bit
ashamed of it. It shows that I came
from the common class of people, and
I'm going to stay with them. If any-
one tries to use it as a club over my
head, I will just fight the harder."
"Haber told me," Representative'
Hook said, "that he knew all about
it and that there was nothing to in-
vestigate.''
Of his own charges last winter
that there was inefficiency in the ad-
ministration of relief in the Upper
Peninsula, Representative Hook said
that he expected to make no de-
mands for a further investigation.
"The Work Progress Administra-
tion will take care of any inefficiency
that may have existed," he said.
He emphasized, however, that he
intends to press his demand in Con-
gress for release of a report by Harry
L. Hopkins, works progress adminis-
trator, of the general relief adminis-
tration. A resolution he introduced
July 9 calling upon President Roose-
velt to make the report public is
pending.
