‘BIGOTRY, DECEIT STILL RULE G. 0. P./ ROARS AL SMITH; BRANDS HOOVER DRY LEADER "" •# ‘Happy Warrior,’ in Fighting Mood, Parades Through 8-Mile Lane of Fire and Lights in Old-Fashioned Political Rally. EXCITEMENT IS FATAL TO ONE Mabel Walker Willebrandt Incident Cited in Detail for Newark Throng as Former Governor Assails Republicans. By United Press NEWARK, N. J., Oct. 25.—Alfred E. Smith bases his fight to win the Catholic-wet-industrial east to the Roosevelt cause on his own 1928 charges that the Republican party still is “the party of bigotry, deceit, and hypocrisy” with Herbert Hoover “a leader of the drys.” The former Governor paraded through an eight-mile lane of red fire and green lights in an old-fashioned political rally here Monday night to revive the 1928 issues.

He charged, grinning, fighting, sarcastic as he proceeded, that: Mabel Walker Willebrandt, assistant attorney-general in 1928, appealed lor votes of politically minded Methodists and Ku-Klux Kinsmen by direction of the Republican campaign board of strategy. That Colonel William J. Donovan, Republican candidate for Governor of New York reported making inroads into the Democratic Catholic vote there, “sat with” that board of strategy. Charges G. O. P. “Paid” Mabel That the Republicans “paid off’ Mabel with a $20,000,000 farm board loan to the Fruit Industries, Inc., of California, for whom she also convinced the department of justice that 13 per cent wine was not intoxicating. That the Republican prohibition plank meant no candidate was to be bound by any party platform declaration on the subject if it conflicted with his private views. And he saved any mention of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the man who defeated him for the presidential nomination at Chicago, for the very last, the climax of his address when he declared “the best way to bring back prosperity is by the election of Roosevelt and Garner, and the entire Democratic ticket. A1 in Fighting Mood It was “Al,” the “happy warrior,” in ’a fighting mood, who addressed a 'wildly cheering audience of 15,000 Wi h 35,000 more listening to amplifiers outside the One hundred tht-centli infantry armory. The crowd cheered hysterically as Sm a stood on the center of the pla: .; i, waving aloft his famous t:\ ' and .rby. The hall was jammed. 1 . -seven persons had been inj: ; r the crush. William Spray J „ of a heart attack as h' 1 in the ovatipn.. e.:ring finally 1 ceased, then p a y speeches were cut short ! by* of “We want ‘Al;’ Boos ft ■ :'.cnt Hoover followed. * ' 1 y, Smith strode to the front of v the.rostrum only to release anew burst of c'in. Touches Off Demonstrations Then he launched into an attack on the Republican party for its prosperity slogans of 1928, the “chicken .in every pot,” silk stockings, two automobiles for workers and abolition of poverty. '/That was four years ago, and we arfi forty years wiser,” he said. “And,” continued Smith, “the last straw, the very last straw 1 that broke the camel's back, was when the candidate for President claimed for the Republican party credit for the increased number of children in public kihools. , I could not let him get away with that. Dow® in Baltimore I said, ‘Wait a minute, now. Go easy on that. The Democrats are pretty good themselves.” Then as the cheering ceased, he observed: “Incidentally, I reminded him that I made my full contribution.” That touched off'another demonstration. Flays G. O. P. Bosses Smith worked rapidly toward the prohibition issue. “I desire to have a little to say about the career of Mabel Walker Willebrandt,” he said. “Do you remember the time that she appeared before a Methodist conference in Ohio and urged the Methodist ministers to go out and preach to their people to bring about my defeat? That was on the theory that I had spoken against the eighteenth amendment. *ave know why it was. "Well, what happened? When the campaign was all over, Mabel was being put on the shelf. So she wrote a little book and here is what she said in the book, speaking about the speech: “ T made it at the request of the Republican national committee, and not as a free lance. In fact, I wired the committee asking twice to be excused from making the speech. But I was urged by the Republican national committee in two telegrams which I still have in my files.' • , ♦‘Conscience Hurt Her” “So the real fact is, that that speech did not sit so well on Mabel’s conscience” “She was foxy,” Smith observed. “She beat it for herself while the going was good and she got herself a cute little position as chief counsel of the Fruit Industries, Inc., of California. “Now this group of fruit growers dug up a great engineer some place wh& was able to devise a brick of concentrated grapes, so after it received a certain amount of treatment it just poured out effervescent like the old-time vintage that had the 100 per cent kick.” Compares Liquor Planks Smith then took up Mrs. Willebrandt’s action in getting a $20,000',000 loan from the farm board for the fruit growers. “She did something else for them, too. She convinced the department of justice that this 12 per cent wJie was not intoxicating. That is some stunt. H “So when all is said and done, Mabel collected a beautiful big iee

to make the Volstead act and the eighteenth amendment look just like 30 cents.” Smith then compared the prohibition planks of the two platforms citing the clear-cut short statement of the Democrats, which he himself wrote, he said, compared with the Republican plank, which he said “means a candidate can do anything he likes.” OPENSCOUTS’ TRAINING GLASS 50 Boys Attend Session of Indianapolis Council. Opening session of the six-week fall training course, sponsored by the Indianapolis Boy Scout Council, was held Monday night in Central Christian church. Approximately fifty boys attended. F. O.

STATION WKBF SALE DENIED BY MANAGER Negotiations, However, Now Being Carried on by Chicago Group. Rumors that radio, station WKBF had been sold to an unnamed Chicago buyer were denied today* by Jim 'Carpenter, manager. At a meeting of Curtis Radiocasting, Inc., in Evansville Monday the directors voted to permit an option being given on the station with indications of a probable sale in the future. Negotiations now are being carried on with a Chicago group, said to be close to NBC .affairs, which in event of a sale, probably will mean an Indianapolis outlet for NBC red network programs.

Slick Prank But It Nearly Lands Four City Youngsters in The Hoosegow.’

FOUR youthful Halloween pranksters nearly landed in jail today because of a “smart Idea.” . Seeking protection from what he believed to be a bandit car trailing behind, a bus driver late Monday night asked Homer Thompson, a merchant policeman, to board the bus. At Central avenue and Sixtyfourth street the driver halted the bus. The "bandit” car did likewise. Then the four youths left their car and began creeping stealthily toward the bus. Thompson leaped into the street, brandishing a revolver. When the youths failed to halt, Thompson fired. The youths halted and obeyed a command to return to the bus.* When questioned, they said they intended to attach an empty oil drum to the rear of the bus. Thompson released them. They are Wallace Butler, 16, of 6440 Park avenue; John Buttonbach, 16. of Robin Hood apartments; Paul Pickett, 15, of 6420 Park avenue, and Lowell Herman, 15, pf 6332 Broadway.

QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive Tablets, the substitute for Calomel. Dr. Edwards, a practicing cian for 20 years, and calomel’s oldtime enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livers. Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, just a healing, soothing vegetable laxative safe and pleasant. No griping is the “keynote’' of these little sugar-coated, olive-col-ored tablets. They help cause the bowels and liter to act normally. They never force them to unnautral action. If you have a “dark brown mouth” —bad breath—a dull, tired feelingsick headache —torpid liver —constipation, you should find quick, sure and pleasant results from one or two of Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets. Thousands take them every night to keep right. Try them. 15c, 30c, 60c .—Advertisement
