rector Of Democratic publicity "Mr
Morgan, Mr.. Rosewald, Mr.. du Pont or
Mr.. Forbes will be asked TO give the
names Of the other men who partici-
pated in the conference"
Chairman William r. Wilcox of the
Repub lean National Committee, sup
piled the missing names last night, and
explained that the meeting was simply
for the purpose Of organizing the
Hughes Alliance Reserve, which raised
about $4,000 all told and devoted il
TO campaign newspaper advertising
The meeting was called by Mr.. Forbes
Mr. Morgan was present as a subscrib-
er to the National Hughes Alliance
fund, but Mr.. Rosenwald was absent
In the absence Of Mr.. Forbes from the
Offices OF the Hughes Alliance last
night Mr.. Wilcox said:
"This is. the most futile of all alb
surdities that have come from the
Democratic publicity bureau. There is
absolutely no basis for il whatever

There were 272 contributors. scat

raised was spent in advertising In the

utors. The second report, a copy OF

contributions of approximately $4,000
Mr.. Forbes denied last night that
there was any secret purpose in the
meeting. He said it was called, not 10

What the Flag VIII Mean

Turning TO the country's present
economic condition, he declared 1t to
be wholly unsatisfactory. IL Is pros
perity, he said, which is incident TO
the European war, and every American
workingman. and business man, should
be soverlv thinking Of what is to come.
He recalled the conditions OF two
years ago.
you remember" he said, what the
conditions were twenty-five months
ago. You may remember some of the
promises that were made four years
ago. Our opponents are very eloquent
in promises. They are eloquent now.
They were eloquent then. We may
Judge something Of what will be the
result of their continuance IN power
By considering what was the result OF
their coming into power four years
ago.
They told US they were going 20
reduce the high cost Of living. They
have not touched the cost Of living.
The high cost OF living has become
the higher cost Of living. They told
Us they were going 20 increase the
opportunities for work and that they
were going 10 advance American en-
terprise. Instead, the opportunities
for work were reduced and We had
a very serious state of business de-
preston until the European war
arose a.,
Reviewing what he believes will be
the results Of the war on European
trade and competition, Mr.. Hughes con-
tinued:
They say let us be efficient. agree
with them. Let US be efficient. Let US
have the highest standards Of efficiency.
Let us get behind our organizations
and have every method of business and
trade and enterprise as perfect as pos
sible. Let us do all we can 10 make
American production efheien, to the
highest degree"
Along the same line, Mr.. Hughes
said:
What will you have--reduction Of
wages or protection OF wages"
"Protection!S Protection" shouted
the crowd.

SECRET MEETING
BOMB A FIzzLE
Democratic Tale of Nor
gan Conference Ex-
ploded by Wilcox

An attempt of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee to fire an eleventh
hour shot at the Hughes campaign
forces last night went wide of its mark
The publicity bureau at Democratic ma
tional headquarters released a story
purporting to show that J. P. Morgan
had called a mysterious meeting OF ten
large employers of labor, on September
u. at Republican national headquar-
tiers, 5l1 Fifth Avenue, ito plan how 70
bring about the election OF Charles Il.
Hughes"
A telegram addressed to W. B. Bel
KNAPP, Of Louisville, requesting him to
attend the meeting and signed by ). +.
Morgan, Coleman du Point, W. Cameron
Forbes, president OF the National
Hughes Alliance, and julius Rosenwald,
of Chicago, was the principal exhibit
in support Of the Democratic bugaboo
The telegram read:
1--WE are calling meeting or ten
men to consider a matter we deem OF
great Importance in this campaign.
You have been selected as one who
we believe. can be Of real assistance in
securing the election of Governor
Hughes. Will you please attend q
meeting at 51l Fifth Avenue at 10
o'clock Tuesday morning, September IL ?

United States. | spoke Of him at all
only because | have felt that in this
great world crisis he has played a
mere evil part than Buchanan and
Pierce ever played in the years that
led up to and saw the opening of the
Civil War.
81 criticise him now because he has
adroitly and cleverly and with sinister
ability appealed to all that is weakest
and most unworthy in the American
character, and also because he has
adroitly and cleverly and with sinister
ability sought to mislead many men and
worlen, who are neither weak nor un-
worthy, but who have been misled by
a shadow dance Of words.
L. :. in Shroud of Rhetoric
"He has made our craftsmanship a
thing Of empty eocution. He has
covered his fear of standing for the
right behind veil Of rhetorical
phrases. He has wrapped the true
heart of the nation in a spangled
shroud of rhetoric. He has kept the
eyes Of the people dazzled so that they
know not what is real and what is
false, so that they turn bewildered,
unable to discern the difference be-
tween the glitter that veneers evil and
the stark realities of courage and hon
esty, of truth and strength. In the
face of the world he has covered this
nations face with shame as with a
garment.
81 hardly know whether 10 feel the
most burning Indignation at those
speeches of his wherein he expresses
lofty sentiment, which mis- deeds belle;
or at those other speeches wherein ne
displays frank cynicism Of belief in,
and Of appeal to, what is basest in the
human heart. In a recent speech at
Long Branch, he said to our people, as
reported in the daily press, that You
cannot worship God on an empty
stomach, and you cannot be patriot
when you are starving.
"No more sordid untruth was ever
uttered Is it possible that Mr.. Will
son, who processes to be a historian,
who has been q college president, and
passes for a man of learning, knows
nothing either of religion or of patriot
ism? Does he not know that never
vet was there a creed worth having,
the professors of which did not fer
vently worship God whether their
stomachs were full or empty? Does
he rot know that never yet was there
country worth living in which did
not develop among her sons something
nj least of that nobility Of soul which
makes men not only serve their coun-
try when they are starving, but when
death has set its doom on their faces
Such a sentence as this could be
uttered only by President who cares
nothing for the nations soul and who
believes that the nation itself puts its
belly above its soul. No wonder that
when such q doctrine is preached by
the President his Secretary of War
should compare Washington and Wash
ington's soldiers with the bandit chiefs
of Mexico and their followers, who

Mr. Hughes gave the Democrats cred.
it for finally adopting the Tariff Com
mission after ths< had choked it when
he Republicans proposed il.
81 wish they would adopt all our prin-
ciples," he said, "and thus make the
election unanimous. But tariff commits
sions dc not legislate. IL is a major
ity in Congress that legislates. The
point is, what principle do they believe
in? If they have any other principle
but the principle Of tariff for revenue
only, I'd like to know what il is. Aside
flom that they have no principle. We
know where we stand. We have a prin-
ciple. We propose to protect American
industry in these coming days Of COM
mercial riyalries."
Mr.. Hughes made big hit in Browns.
Vile and Greenpoint when he declared
he was not opposed 10 an eight-hour
workday, but branded the Adamson law
as gold brick.
Right Way To DO Things
There is q right way to do things
and a wrong way" he said. II want
TO see the results reached in the right
way, as that Is the only way they will
stick. That is the only way you can
make genuine progress. We can easily
bedevil our entire situation, and bt
engulfed in agitation and have one class
arrayed against another class. The rea.
sonable way, however, is to have con.
fdence in the public judgment"
Concluding his speech. Mr.. Hughes
said
I'VE have got to feel in this country
that 1t is a common prosperity or none
at all; that the interests of labor anC
capital are not diverse, but are one;
and the business manager and the me.
chanic, and the humblest workingman
and the man of exceptional study
every one has got TO feel that his cnancC
in this country is chance to help
some one else.
eff we ever get that sense of fellow
ship and lay basis for prosperity
through a sound government policy
then America will go forward holding
its own in the twentieth century
Prosecuting our activities in time OF
peace, we will haze sense of unity
which will make US unafraid to stand
before the world, sound, firm, just and
courageous, maintaining all American
rights"
