EX-GOVERNOR OF LOUISIANA SPEAKS AT MEETING HERE (CONT>XVED FROM I’AUK ONK> Stratton, who he said went all the way to Texas to tell his audience that Governor Smith should not be elected president because he was a poor boy and did not have a college education,'' the speaker continued, "our ancestors • came to this country, not because they wanted to, but to get away from re'igious tyranny. We have no right, because a boy was born poor, sold papers on the streets, worked in a fish market, worked as a day laborer, climbed the ladder of success through hard toil and honesty, raised a family of five splendid children, grew and developed in statecraft, became a leader and a great executive through his own ability and untiring efforts to say he should not be president. I hang my head in shame when I think of this minister of the gospel, who has left his pulpit to preach a message of hat and malice and ask the good Lord to have pity on him." The southern statesim.n, who dealt with the klan in his state when that secret order was at its height in Louisana, made a plea for re'igious tolerance and said that “religion should not be a bar to public office.” The speaker called Governor Smith's wonderful record of public service in New York. “He served in the legislature about 15 years, was a member of the Constitutional convention, was elected sheriff of New Y’ork county, w r as president of the board of Alderman of New York city and is now serving his eighth year as governor of the greatest state in the Union. Governor Smith," said Mr. Parker, “is a man who has earned the lovO and respect "of his fe’low men through ; hard work and honesty. “He has always stood for what is right. He knows better than any person today what the common people want and need. Look at his record. He has promoted more beneficial legislation than any executive in the country. He has increased the public .school teacher's salaries, and has had a teacher's pension fund created. His work in the interest of the people of New York state has drawn the tributes of such men as Elihu Root and Charles Evans Hughes, two of America’s foremost citizens, w’ho have said that Governor Smith knows more welfare legislation than any man in the country. He consolidated 167 departments into 15." Governor Parker used g.oveless hands in dealing with the political questions. He said, “then comes the whispering campaign. The sinister partisans and bigots are injecting the religious question and all kinds of unthinkable things into the campaign. If you can't judge a man by liis lifelong record of public service, how can you judge him." Referring to Governor Smith, he remarked, “he's been tested, he's been watched. He has made good. He is one man who tells you where he stands on every question. He is honest and sincere in his statements. If he doesn't know, he admits it.” Touching the prohibition question Mr. Parker recalled that the Volstead aw could not be changed w’ithout an act of Congress, which required twothirds of the states to ratify. “This will not be done," he said. “Governor Smith is against the open saloon. He has been and always will be against it. He said so, has proven it in his public record and you caa believe him.” Governor Parker then expressed his own personal views on the prohibition question, saying, “I don't know of a state in the Union where you cannot get liquor. Look at your cities. They have never been without it.” The speaker made a plea against hypocrisy. "Scandal after scandal has been shown in the prohibition enforcement of the Volstead '.aw. ( The country is building up a ring of bootleggers and criminals, making millions out of the traffic. It is teaching our younger folk disrespect for law. They openly boast of the hip flask and drain it content. Don't play the hypocrite. Let’s be sensible, enforce the law, as Governor Smith will do. or remedy it." Touching on the farm question, Mr. Parker, remarked that in the last eight years under Repuh lcan rulq not one suggestion has come from the president or the past secretary of commerce as to a remedy. No help has been extended in seeing that a law was passed. Governor Smith, in his acceptance speech and in his Omaha speech, told you that he would call in the best authorities on the

— -u F”' < • question, have them draft a bill, emboding the principles of the McNaryHaugen bill and see that it was passed in the next session of congress. Governor Smith knows how to get legislation passed." The speaker told of the deplorab.e condition in the agricultural states. Farmers have been the playthings of the politicians and. after eight years, no remedy oi help has been given to them. It's time they ask for a change.” in concluding his wonderful talk, Mr. Parker said, “when we permit religious questions to enter into the qualifications for public office you forget that you are Americans. Catholics have served with credit in high office." He mentioned Chief Justice White who served on the supreme court bench for 30 some years, 11 years of which he was Chief Justice of the highest court in the country.” "Forget religious bitternes and hate and work together." Mr. Parker said. The speaker remarked that "Senator Joe Robinson is a Methodist, run ning for vice president with Governor A. Smith, a Catholic. That's the way it should be. You never ask a man what his religion is when you employ him. The election of Governor Smith and Senator Robinson would do more to create a feeling of good will through the country than anything I know. If you want a president who will best serve the people your choice will be Al Smith." Mr. Erwin Speaks Mr. Erwin, iu opening the meeting, stated; "Felow Citizens: Again we are in the midst of a presidential campaign. In a few days another chapter in American history will be written. “Two great political parties are before the electorate of this country, each asking that you place the reins of government in their hands. "This is the time, and practically th? only time, when you and 1 have anything to say about the governmeut of our country. “You will be compelled to do one of two things, either approve the administration of the Repub ican party for the last eight years or to take from them the power of government and give it to the Democrats. "From 1912 to 1920 the national affairs were in the hands of a democratic administration and though it was at a time when there was ample opportunity for graft, greed, dishonesty and corruption in office and although this period was followed by the present administration and though the government has expended more than a million dollars in an attempt to fasten on that administration some disgrace and dishonesty in official con duct, yet not a single conviction was bad In the present administration there has been such a multiplicity of crime and dishonesty among the members of the president’s cabinet, the members of the senate and the other high officials that the very mention of the names of Denby, Newberry, Hays, Mayor Thompson, Senator Smith and Governor Smail of Illinois, Senator Vare, Attorney-General Daugherty, Forbes, Sinclair, Fall, or Dohaney brings a blush of shame to every redblooded American citizen without regard to his politics or his paity affiliation. “What is true of national affairs is likewise true in state affairs. From 1908 to 1916 the state government of Indiana was in the hands of Democrats and the administrations of Thomas R. Marshall and Samuel M. Ralston stand out upon the pages of Indiana history as bril lant examples of old fashioned efficiency and common honesty. Since then the fair name of Indiana has been held in bad repute and we are looked upon with contempt by the entire nation and much of the world and there has grown up here among our people a general disgust and lack of confidence in those who administer our state affairs. So low has become our standard that even the language in common conversation has a different meaning; that official titles have changed over night to official numbers; that horse race phrases and political language are so interwoven as to make a disgraceful mixture; that the word “senator" no longer implies an officer, but applies to animals as well; that men high in political leadership have become so corrupt that they have resigned their positions to take their p'ace in a federal prison and are still there; i that the meaning of the “statute of limitation" is known by every school : boy and every school girl in Indiana. ; Shall we continue to live under this . or shall we trust in Governor i Smith and our neighbor son, Frank

Dailey, for relief? "The Democratic party comes to you today, both In national and state affairs, with a c ean record and a clean cut declaration of principles so plain that no ordinary layman need misunderstand. Our party, as she has always done, stands ready to proclaim these principles from the housetops, sq to speak, and is now, as she has always been, ready to speak of these principles and these promises in audible tones. To that end we have come here tonight to discuss these matters with you and trust that you may see that the responsibility is with you.” The court room was attractively decorated with* flags and pictures of Governor Smith, Senator Robinson, Frank C. Dailey, Albert Stump and Don Ward. The decorating was in charge of Dee Fryback, Freeh Hower and B. F. Roller. HOOVER TAKES COGNIZANCE OF DRY LAW ABUSES ♦ CONTINUE!!

Violations of public interest by individuals or corporations should be followed by the condemnation and punishment they deserve, but this should not induce us to abandon pro-

' system might be interpreted here « ■vaulting from Gov. Smith’, o'klJ ma City charge that whisper, w being circulated against smith tht he had not developed public schools —a rumor Smith emphatically nied. But the reference was included in Hoover’s list of i bsues and it so couched that it took no dirset notice of Smith’s speech. "It is absolutely essential to moral development," he said, ■’and the es larged opportunity of the bors Uli girls in every home that we iacreig. ingly strengthen our public sc h M | systems and our institutions of higher learning.” The nominee's reference to stow moving justice likewise was contained in one sentence: “to protect our pie from violence at home we w revise our court proceedure to pro. duce swifter and super justice atvi we should begin with the federal government.” On the other issues, including farm relief, he merely restated the policies he outlined in his accepuwe tipeech without amplifying them.
