Davis Dwells on Scandal in Ken.
tucky Speech.
BY the Associated Press.

0y the Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Kentucky, October %.
questioning methods. which he
charged were being employed to collect
funds for political campaign usage, John
W. Davis, Democratic nominee for
president, called upon Kentucky voters
mere last night to remember that f'if
one governmental function can be
bought and paid for, you have no
guaranty that other governmental func-
t1ons may not also be bartered in the
market place"
"A well filed ammunition chest is
never to be deSpised in politics." Mr.
Davis said, "and until you know Just
now much there is in it, it is useless
to speculate.
But what shall we say of the meth
ods employed to fill 1t?
rs there not something curiously
reminiscent about some testimony given,
! think it was yesterday or the day be-
Tore, and certain letters that were Of
fered by collectors Of funds for that
particular army chest?
What is the meaning of Mr. Grundy,
when he writes to his Pennsylvania
friends, 'Pennsylvanians, because you
have enjoyed much, you must contribute
literally?
rs there not something of that in
the old familiar rule, Nothing VEN
ture, nothing have or duid pro
quo, or of bargain struck and goods
delivered?
Says No Favors for Sale
what about the letter of the Penn
sylvania manufacturer asking for
funds to prevent the dreadful ca
lamity of having the existing tariff
law removed from the books at this
time? And that, my friends. has been
the standing indictment of the de-
mocracy against the system of pro-
hihitive tariffs written by the bene-
fciarfes-that they were, in the last
analysis, nothing more or less than
the sale Of the taxation privilege to
= private citizens in return for politi-
cal contributions. And we have in
sisted in the past, and it Is our proud
boast today, that the Democratic
party has no favors for sale to any
man.
Remember this-remember this
that If one governmental function
can be bought and paid for, you have
no guaranty that other governmental
functions may not also be bartered in
the market place.
What do you think passed through
the mind of Albert B. Fall when, in
exchange for personal bribes, he
signed away the naval reserves OF
the United States? What other than
that he was using his official power
to enrich his friends and share with
them the result of that enrichment?
/ Cites Forbes Case.
F What was it that betrayed Charles
r. Forbes into his raids upon the
Veterans Bureau? What but the
same idea that government existed
for men to enrich themselves there
fromf Once let that pernicious doc
trtne be settled and accepted-aye
Evening star., 1924-10-22

let it be made by respectable men
in any branch of government and
the very foundation of human So
ciety has been shattered to its ulti-
mate stone.
What is government, after all,
but the collective confidence of the
citizens in those who serve? What
Is the grossest crime that any party
can commit? 1t is to shatter the
confidence of the citizen in the gov
ernment that rules him"
presidential elections" Mr.. Davis
declared. ARE not light affairs and
they involve in every four years
events hidden in the scroll of the
future that none of us are wise
enough to penetrate.
And YOU will not be surprised If I
stand, myself. as the candidate of the
Democratic party in solemn awe at the
responsibilities which this moment in
wolves. And if we are to discharge them
our first duty must be to survey the
existing scene and choose from it the
ISSUES that are to guide us and make
our decisions for the future as best we
can In such light as the past casts upon
our pathway
You remember the story of the years
that followed since 1916-a great and
victorious war fought to it's conclusion,
great and inspiring vision lifted up be-
tor the sons of men giving them for the
nrst time in human history the promise
or the coming of that brighter and bet
Ter day when nations might war no
more, and then of a people, their ideal
ISM exhausted, their energies tagging
their discomforts overcoming them like
cloud, turning from that leadership,
dispiacing first his followers In the Sem
q -,
choosing other leaders and other men to
guide them.
q. o. p. Record Held Issue.
And the history of the three and
a half years that have followed on
that choice lies before us tonight
for our consideration and our decision
or approval or disapproval, of salts
faction or dissatisfaction, Of conf
dence or lack of confidence, Is, what
ever else we may say. the great
dominating question by which this
election must be determined.
Now what is that history?" Mr..
Davis asked.
Il need not detail with you all the
scandals of the last three and a half
years. You know them all the way
from the Teapot Dome to the Veter-
ans Bureau and back again. But
the real question before the American
people is, what are you going to do
about them?"
After all, there is a great respon-
sibility for such things on the citizen;
If he is called upon for approval or
disapproval. he dare not remain
silent. And he owes it to himself to
leave on the page of history a SEN
tence of condemnation that cannot be
misunderstood"
