JUDGE SMITH SPEAKS
Addresses Voters in Behalf of
 Candidacy for Governor

Judge L. c. Smith of Dewitt, candidate for governor, ad- dressed a fair sized audience at the Allen Hall here this morn- ing at 10:30.
 He severely criticised Gov. Brough for his extravaganza in office, especially in connec- tion with the issuance of $750,- 900 state bonds, which Judge Smith declared to be in direct violation of the state constitu- tion.
 A number of other official acts of Governor Brough were severely criticised, especially the pardoning of bootleggers and the pardoning of a form CT employee of the state who admitted having embedded $6 900 of state funds.
 From comments heard after the speaking, it seems that Judge Smith will have a much larger following here than he had two years ago.

 Millions of pleading, wistful faces are turned toward us today, and only by answering that mute appeal by uni versal enrolment in the Red Cross can we show our sympathy and our vote for a kindlier. gentler world in the days to come"
