Democrats Favor New Deal Relief in Pennsylvania

James and Charles Algon Jones defend party records while Republicans criticize relief spending and accuse Democrats of misalignment with European ideas. George H. Earle, running for Senate, credits relief for tax relief and industry retention, with J. David Stern noting Roosevelt’s backing of Democratic candidates.

Harrisburg reports that chair man Herbert B. Cohen refused Republican minority demands to summon Gov. George H. Earle and former Property and Supplies Secretary Arthur Colegrove to answer the gravel charges.
