DEMOCRATS ASSAlL
REPUBLICAN POLICIES
Foreign Activities Attacked by
Senator King at Club
Meeting.

The foreign and domestic policies
of the United States, as fostered by
the Republican party, and that party
as political organization were made
targets by Democratic members of
Congress who last night addressed the
regular meeting of the National Dem
ocratic Club at the Washington Hotel
Senator William II, King of Utah
assailed the present foreign policy of
the Nation as one which has won
for the United States no friends but
which, to the contrary, has carried
this country from it's position of es-
TEEN and friendliness among other
nations, where it was placed. he said,
largely through the former President
Wilson, to one of suspicion and fear.
TIL Harding Coolidge administra
tons domestic policy, Senator King
asserted. is little better than it's for
eign attitude, because, he said, the
United States today is dominated by
the great trusts and business monopo-
lies" The individual States. he con-
tinued, have become anemic under the
Republican policies, while the Federal
Government becomes more powerful,
and the more powerful the main Gov.
eminent becomes, he added. the
more subservient 1t is to the trusts"
While he condemned the Republi
can party for its ''unscrupulous tao
tics" Senator King declared that the
Democratic party needs some of its
power of organization. He said that
President Coolidge was able in his
last campaign to ride two horses in
opposite directions" when he gained

and the Catholics and of both the
vets and the drys.
Representative A. w Barley of
Kentucky spoke on the differences
between the two major parties. In
this connection, he declared that
Abraham Lincoln and Theodore
Roosevelt were Democrats at heart.
because they preached the gospels of
liberty and "a square deal" The
Democratic. he said, lis the only
party in the world anywhere that
could live on such record" of elect
ing only two Presidents in so years.
Representative Clarence F. Lea of
California urged a wide educational
campaign" of the merits of the Demo
cratic partK, and the faults of the
Republicans to precede the 1928 cam.
paign. Only through such cam
paign can the Democratic party hope
to attain victory in the next election,
he contended.
representative Henry T. Rainey of
Illinois also attacked the Govern
ment's present foreign policy, declar-
ing that 'tthe Army and Navy are

and banking interests owned by
Americans thousands of miles away,

of the reasons why we, as Democrats,
should organize for a victorious fight"
