MIR. Bryan's Speaking Dates.
BRYAN NOT DICTATOR.
Gives Reasons I'm COmmOner for De-
cIining to Name Candidate.


Lincoln. Nebr., Nov. el-In an editorial
statement which will appear in to-mor-
rows Commoner, Mr.. Bryan specifically
declines to pose as a Warwick for the
Democratic party. He says. in part:
Mr. Bryan has received n number of
letters inviting him to assume the re-
spcnsibility of naming a Democratic can
dIdate Each one feels sure that Mr..
Bryan can insure party victory by de-
dining TO be candidate and urging the
nomination OF Mr. Blank. The advice is
honestly given and well intended, but the
advisers come TO overlook two facts. IF
a majority OF the Democrats would agree
to allow Mr. Bryan TO name the canGi-
date, they would hold him responsible
for tho success Of the person named, and
VINO is wise enough to assume intelli-
gently such a responsibility?
1T might be very pleasing 10 the
friends of n particular candidate 10 have
fh8t candidate indorsed by Mr. Bryan.
II Mr. Bryan's Endorsement insured o
nomination. But Mr.. Bryan's indorse-
ment would not insure the nomination OF
the person indorsed and 1t would not in
sure election, and it would insure Cne
thing, namely, that Mr. Bryan would be
denounced as a dictator not only BY all
who are unfriendly. but by many who are
friendly Is not President Roosevelt de-
noUnced as a dictator because he !aSi-
Gated n preference for Secretary Taft2
The second objection TO such course
is that II is not Democratic. Power comes
up from the people not down from the
leaders"

new NAVY FOUNDRY

New Structure indispensable Both to
Meet Requirements of Gun Factory

Iy AvaiIabIe-Machini JubIIant.

That the need for new foundry for
the Washington naval gun factory at the
local navy yard is imperative. is the tenor
Of the annual report of Rear Admiral
Hollyday. chief Of the Bureau of Yards
and Docks.
The report was made public yesterday.
and in it an appropriation of 100000 for
immediate use toward the erection of u
plant to cost $4,000 is recommended.
1t is declared that the present foundry
IS such that the government loses money
every year because Of the lack Of facili-
ties for handling the business.
"A new and enlarged foundry is i'm
peratively needed" says Admiral Holly
day. 1T is proposed to locate the new
foundry and foundry yard in the south
west part OF the western extension. A
new foundry is indispensable to the econo-
my Of the gun factory. II is the most
needed Of all the improvements that could
be recommended.
Present Foundry Antiduated.
THE present foundry is antiquated and
inadequate in size and unsuitable as a
foundry Tor an institution like the naval
gun factory. on account OF its in
sanitary condition, il is menace 10 the
health OF the employees and officers Of
the yard in its present situation. The
government losses every year, by not
having better facilities. would soon
equal the amount requested 10 properly
provide for all the requirements of this
portion of the plant. and its increased
product would materially add 10 the
production OF armament by this factory.

present time the yard foundry is work
ing up TO lis extreme capacity, and in
the event of war. the emergency conGi-
tons could not be met"

both indorse everything said in the re-
port OF Admiral Hollyday. and are both
jubilant over the prospect OF the appro-
priation going through.

The recommendation for the Wash

$1.5oo.OoO; contingent, $4,000: civil estab-
lishment, $2o1, $3.50.
Admiral Hollyday points out that ad-
ditional dry docks are urgently needed.
and invites attention TO the fact that the
navy afioat is outgrowing the present and
authorized facilities ashore. He declares
that if appropriations for dry docks are
not forthcoming, the need will be severely
felt by the time they could possibly be
completed. a substantial increase is asked
for maintenapce, due 10 necessary eX-

BRYAN HAS PLAN
TO SECURE BANKS
Continued from Page One.

feated by the larger banks on the ground
that the big banks would have no ad-
vantage over the little ones, II all de-
Dositors were secured, but now that the
big banks are suffering as much as the
little ones. the objection will hardly be
made
The plan which then proposed would
furnish protection as far as the fund
would furnish It, but it would take time
70 raise such a fund. and I believe It Is
better for the government 10 make the
security absolute by becoming guarantor.
for this system can be put into operation
at once, and that. too. without expense
10 the government. inasmuch as the
banks would reimburse the government
from time 10 time I'm case the govern
ment was called upon TO pay the de-
posits Of any failed bank"
Mr.. Bryan said yesterday that he would
make "a speech at the dinner in his honor
Tuesday next. explaining the difference
between President ROOsevelrs policies
and those OF the Democratic party.
