In Chicago on October 21 Alfred E. Smith assailed Secretary of the Interior Hubert Work for renewing the Salt Creek oil lease to Sinclair interests. He tied the move to an anticipated election impact and criticized Republican figures including Senator Borah and President Hoover on farm relief prohibition and war veterans care.
