SAN FRANCISCO, June 29.-1n his
sneech this afternoon accepting the
nermanent Craftsmanship Of the dem.

Joseph T. Robinson, of Arkansas,
vigorously assailed the republican
platform, declaring that: ...N
ut is an amazing jumble of am
biguities, inconsistencies. evaslons,
Representations, straddles and
SANDERS.
.The republican convention should
have displayed the courage clearly to
declare its policy, but it was frank
on only one subject; namely, IN sing.
ing hymn of hate for the president
ssThe platform is deliberately un-
fair in charging upon the democratic
administration All responsible litv tor
military unprepar edness.
Devoting his attention first to the
ctssrge Of military unpreparedness,
Sena tor Robinson said:
Everyone knows that the repubil-
can party controlled the government
FOR long period prior to the inaugur-
alton OF President Wilson, excepting
a short time when the democrats
were in the majority in one branch
Of congress.
IL criticism Of the pre-war national
policy as to military preparedness Is
justified, the censure must fall upon
the republican party. That party cam
not escape the consequences OF its
course or win favor by falsify1ng the
well known facts of history"
With regard to the republican
claim of policy of economy the SEN
ator declared that ''the absurdity Of
this boast is disclosed by the fact
that one billion dollars in excess OF
the amount appropriated by the dem
ocratic congress in 1915 has been
authorized for the coming fiscal year.
Besides" he added, "many mani
festly necessary sums have been with
held to make showing Of economy
The republican plank respecting
taxation he characterized as mani

tariff he observed:
The platform embraces no more
amusing pleasantly than the admis-
sion that there is neither necessity
or justification for revision of tariff
For fear, however, that the pluto
cratic benef1ciaries of protection may
become Indifferent to republican sue
cess, and forget to make campaign

: A big joker" was his characteri-
cation of the plank concerning pro-

Franklin Roosevelt, assistant secre-
