Albany, N Y, Nov 2.--Charles Il.
Hughes told audiences in central New
York today. the last day but one of
his campaign tour, that he had no
apologies TO make for his attack up-
on the administration with reference
TO the maintenance of American
rights, and that he proposed, If elect
ed. to make the American flag the
symbol not only of courtesy and jus
uce, but Of firmnoss and consistency
i'm maintaining "our known rights on
land and sea-
The nominee assailed the adminis-
trauon for it's alloged failure to aid
in the development tfl American
trade abroad by upholdng American
rights. characterized as very cruel
and unwarrantable' suggestions thal
a ote for him meant a vote for war
and declared that i'm American rola-
tuns with foreign nations he was
opposed to a "muddle Of meddle'
william Barnes Presides.
At Batavia, the first stop Of the |
day Mr.. Hughes asserted that he had |
entire confidence in the result of the |
election in Indiana and ohio. In hlSI
speech here tonight the nominee de /
fined political leadership. The meet !
ing here was presided over by Will
lam Barnes. former republican state
chairman
MIR. Hughes spoke at oneida, Am
sterdam, Schenectady and Troy on his
way here. The addresses at oneida
and Amsterdam We're five minute
talks, i'm which the nominee reiterated
/ briefly his attitude toward the Issues
Of ths day." The speech at SChnec-
! tady was before an audience that had
awaited his arrival for more than an
hour. Many persons were turned
away from this meeting, unable to
gain entrance to the nall
People Express Views.
"Our opponents do not seem to like
the idea of criticism with respect TO
International policy" Mr. Hughes
said in his Schnectady speech. but
/ beg TO remind them that an Amer
lean president is elected for term
Of four years and under our institu-
tions, at the conclusion Of that term,
the American people express their
minds.
when a matter is so important as
the maintenance Of American rights,
il is highly necessary that an Ameri-
can opinion should be expressed and
| have no apology to make in stand
ing before you and I'm saying that II
[ am elected president / propose that
The American flag shall not bc only
a symbol of courtesy, symbol OF
iustce-but It shall be the symbol of
firmness under consideration IN
maintaining our known rights ON
! land and on sea throughout the
world.
Not War Policy.
"That is not policy that leads toI
war There meyer has been a time,
| perhaps, in our history when 1t was
easier to keep the American nation
! out Of war than during the past few
wears when every nation engaged IN
| the great strife abroad desired our
friendship ana would not hy reason
Of any assertion Of our just rights
| forfeit that friendship
81 desire to see American enter
prisc advanced throughout the world.
| / want to see in the coming days Of
! keen commercial rivalry representa-
! tivcs Of American industry carrying
their talents to the service OF the
world in foreign lands. 1t Is idle,
| however, to expect success in that di-
rection If we DO not have full protoc-
| ton of those who represent our in
| tCTcstG abroad.
| 81 am amazed TO have anyone sup
nose that we can prosper in tho OK
tension Of American trade through
out the world If our flag Is only an
invitation TO como home. Men who
before election are described as hay
| ing the best genius in the world and
as doing a. duty TO humanity should
not be in danger after election Of
| being called servants of their own
private interests who take their lives
i'm their own hands for their personal
ends
"The dignity of American citizen

Mr.. Hughes assalled the admins
tration for it's MeXican policy Hc de-
clarcd that the question of recognlz-
ing Hucrta was beside the mark,
and not am issue. And ! refer to It
only because OF the very cruel and
unwarrautablc suggestions that an
