ly heaped upon you by this shame
full conduct on the part of your
senior senatorial representative in
Washington.
Prohibition
And now we come to one OF the
most serious problems confronting
us today, one which has fostered
nationwide contempt of law and
official corruption. l refer to the
prohibition amendment to the Con-
stitution of the United States and to
the iniquitous volstead act.
THE honest and conscientious
prohibitionist who practices what
he breaches has always commanded
my great respect. But I have the
utmost contempt for the hypocriti-
cal poser who is personally wei and
politically dry.
81 am against prohibition. 1 am
against the saloon. / am in favor of
the manufacture and sale of light
wines and beer under federal super
vision and regulation.
"If this cannot be done under the
present law / favor the repeal of
the Volstead act and the repeal of
the eighteenth amendment of our
Constitution, il needs be, and urge
the enactment of such laws as will
make this possible.
Just think Of it. A small group
OF fanatical reformers and their
hirelings using the power of this
great government to throttle the
personal liberties of the people!
And they have the effrontery to pose
as champions of law and order.
Are you aware that the United
States of America, under this act.
iC lrtr On 10 ~ ND rvat on ~ratarc
1T is a fact that the United States
government today and ever since
this act has been on the statute
book, has sanctioned and made
legal the sale Of hard liquor of all
kinds, including wine and beer on
the ships travelling under the Amer
lean flag on the high seas and oper-
ated by the United States Shipping
Board.
Query: How is it purchased? Is
1t possible that the United States
government is in the b~oot-legging
business? And If so, does our 'holier
than thou" senator sponsor this
nefarious traffic?
ITO SUMMARIZE: I believe that
personal liberty is the foundation OF
the greatness Of this country. 1
yield to no one in my respect and
regard IOr Ine great human prlncl-
pies embodied in the Constitution
of the United States by our fore
fathers who sought honestly to Sc
cure the blessings of liberty to our
selves and to our posterity.'
"The three great national princi-
pies at issue in this campaign 1 have
now briefly outlined for your serious
consideration.
During the progress of my cam
paign l shall dwell also upon the
multitude of ~correlative deficiencies
and failures of the Republican pow
er now in control Of the machinery
of government. I repudiate the pres
ent national administration as reac-
tionary, untrustworthy, extravaganza,
indefinite and incompetent.
Mindful of the solemn trust and
sacred duty reposed in me, I have
accepted the high honor of somina-
ton to serve the people of the state
of New Jersey in the senatorial
chamber of the United States gov
eminent.
May God give me added strength
to awaken the nations cherished
Hberty-loving spirit. the spirit of I'M
trammeled independence.
May New Jersey continue to
blaze the trail on the highways and
byways to unshackled freedom. The
constitutional safeguards of personal
liberty must be upheld"

THEATRES

Beautiful Betty Compson in a
beautiful story Of regeneration,
beautifully produced.
That was the attraction which
proved a lodestonel at the Ditmas
theatre last night, where THE
Bonded Woman" opened to a capac-
ity audience of delighted patrons.
This strong dramatic presentation
has its basis in a story by the late
John Fleming Wilson.
Miss Compson appears as Angela
Gaskell, daughter pf a sea captain.
Angela is loved by Lee Martin, a
member Of the Ship-owning firm.
Her fathers life is saved by John
Somers, his firstf mate. Angela
learns that Somers has a craving
for liquor. Her gratitude impels
her to take an interest in him. An
gela discovers that she does not
love Marvin and that her sole de-
sire is to save Somers from his
weakness. She follows him to the
South Seas, where they are wrecked
on a desert island, and he finds
strength to save himself while both
find love-for each other.
Popular elements are a thrilling
storm at sea and several realistic
s~hipwrecks. Tho interior of a
Honolulu sailorsi resort, with it's
dancing girls and other diversions
furnishes a coloFful background.
John Bowers andl Richard Dix con-
tend for the stars favor-each is
well known leading man. Ethel
Wales contributes n of her anus
ing character roles. J. Farrell Mac
Donald is the sea captain, and Will
liam Moran is a believable villain.
Philip E. Rosen directed and ]. C.

SILzER HEARD
Ar SATATE CONVENTION
Continued from page -


ut is as clear then, as the noon
day sun, that if we are to hold the
voters of u own party, and attract
those of other parties, we must not
initiate these practices, or tolerate
deception of the people.
What we say in our platform
must be practical. unequivocal and
sincere, for I, as your standardbearer
shall that your platform
ean what it says and that I am to
carry it out.
we must prite planks which
clearly express our solution of the
pressing problems, among which are
taxation, public utilities, prohibition,
roads, night work for women, labor
and others. We must express in
these planks only those things which
are helpful to our people, those
which will be of service to
them, and those which will tighten
their burdens.
1--WE must not rely upon the weak
ness of our adversary. but upon the
strength of u own ability to ac-
complish. This is a task to which it
is a pleasure to dedicate ones self.
1t is a task in which it should be a
delight to participate. With victory
in the air, it is our duty to grasp
the opportunity to take from the
hands of special privilege and selfish
interests, the reins of government
and place them in the hands of those
who r willing to work for the
benefit of the common interests. The
voters T receptive and anxious to
make the change. All that is need
ed now is to convince them that we
are sincere and earnest.
with the cooperation of those
who are here today, leaders of men
and women in their respective dis
tricts, who shall organize these great
forces, there will dawn on the Sth
of November a day of change which
will bring happiness to an oppressed
electorate.

Good Show at the Crescent

Today the Crescent theatre offers
to the people Of this city another
exceptionally good show. The vaude-
Vile is far above the average seen
in this city and one may be assured
of an entertainment that is well
worth seeing. The photoplay itself,
which shows Franklin Farnum in
Trials End,y one Of his best pic
lures, is worth the price of admis-
sion. The vaudeville acts are all
direct from broadway and we are
sure you will enjoy them. They fol-
low:
The Love Lawyer, is a miniature
musical comedy; Knowles & White,
are great in THE Love Tangle';
Harry Hahn & Company. is a clever
character sketch; the Coleman Sis
tiers, score al big hit as comedy
tertainers arb the Milo Trio is truly
a sensational novelty of considerable
merit. Them is also a comedy and
news include in the program.

THE HAYT1 BAKERY.

Bakeries have come and bakeries
have gone, but Hayti has one now
that is destined to remain in busi-
ness permanently. II is not alto
gether new enterprise, for 1t has
been in operation long enough to
demonstrate its worth. yet there
are many people here who do not
know of its existence.
A representative of this paper
went through the plant few days
ago and found 1t fully equipped
with 'all modern machinery for the
making of a high grade bread, as
we'll as all other sorts of fancy bak-
ing. And the best of all, everything
was kept clean and sanitary. ri
AS the quality of baking turned
out by our home plant becomes bet
ter known the more extensively 1t is
being used, for our people believe in
patrOnizing home industry when the
service is equally as good as that
procured abroad. This is the right
spirit. for in no other way can a
town be built up.
Mr.. Hardesty, the proprietor, has
cast his lot among us. and is run
ming a very needful enterprise, for
his goods compose the "staff of life"
which we must all have three times
daily, or we perish.
1t is said that the proof of the
pudding is the eating thereof" so
why not all give Mr.. Hardesty's
goods a fair trial?
