l. Hamilton Lewis Says Country Wants Character
 Not Statesmanship

BOSTON. Oct. 13. - The next Presidential election will be a call for established character and political honor rather than con test for super wisdom in states manship. said former Senator James Hamilton Lewis of Illinois in an interview here. He declared that nominations for President come as reward for personal life or private integrity. He con tinued:
 '.If President Coolidge or Gov. Smith shall, over all partisan op- position, be summoned to re- newed leadership it will not be by reason of political or partisan SUI. periority, but because each has shown a clean personal life and pure. political probity."

SEDALIA. Mo-, Oct. 13.-Sena- tor James A. Reed Of Missouri, in an address at a Statewide Democratic rally here, declared that the times are ripe and rot ten; ripe for a change in the National Administration. The Senator, regarded as possible candidate for the Democratic Pres itlential nomination. outlined his views of the political issues of the 1928 Presidential campaign.
 ''The need today" Senatod Reed declared : is an American Admin istration that thinks in terms Of America and that labors for the interest of our people"
 He made 1t plain that he spoke for himself and did not "arrogate myself to speak for the Democratic party"
 Senator Reed assailed the Hard ing and Coolidge administration, declaring that on the day Presi- dent Harding took office sinister financial conspirators to all in tents and purposes took pos session of the Government, and have ever since exercised domin- ant control.'

Pads, fancies, ex- perimental theories shoul dbe dis regarded. We should pitch our .tents in the old camp of Democ- racy. Let us rally our forces under the flag of the Constitution. Let gs make our fight beneath banners proclaiming the inalien- able rights of citizens: among which are liberty of conscience, without coercion, criticism or ob- ioquy; the right of every man to worship God according to the dic- tates of his own conscience, and none shall make him afraid; each citizen to regulate his own per sonal conduct, chart his own course through life, determine his own habits, and control the af.

INDUSTRIAL PEACE NOW l IN NATION Praise Given to Under standing Between En- ployer, Employee COOLIDGE GIVES AN ADDRESS, PITTSBURGH Harvest of Contentment In-

 Production

PITTSBURGH, Penn. Oct. B. The industrial peace of today which short time ago would have seemed impossible, receiv- ed praise of President Calvin Coolidge in a speech today at the annual observance of Founders Day at the Carnegie Institute.
 The better understanding was attributed by the President to closer cooperation of the people and realization by the employer and employee of "mutuality of interest. It has brought a great harvest of contentment." he said. and a great increase of effort and efficiency in product.on.
 The relation between employ CT and employee has been so greatly improved that much of the old friction no longer exists.
 "The rattle of the reaper, buzz of the saw, clang of the anvil, roar of traffic, all are part of the mighty symphony, not only of material but of spiritual pro- gress. Out of them, the Nation is supporting religious institu- ,tions, endowing colleges and pro- svidirg it's lysassIsfng adornments of architecture and rearing its monuments, organiz- ing it's orchestras and encourag- ing it's paintings"

Democratic Le ead CT Says Entire Pacific Coast
 for New Yorker

TACOMA, Oct. '1S.-Gov. Alfred E. Smith. of New York, will go into the next Democratic conven- tion with the delegations of the entire Pacific Coast and Rocky Mountain States ready to support him for the Presidential nomina- tion, according to George F. Chris jensen. of Stevenson, Democratic National Committeeman.
 Christensen named Utah as the only doubtful state following an investigation of party sentiment covering several weeks.
 The States that Christensen promises will send Smith delega- tions to the National Convention are: Washington, Oregon, Califor- mia, Montana. Nevada, Idaho, Col orado. Arizona, New Mexico, Wyo- ming and the Territory of Alaska.
 This region will have 112 votes in the next convention, enough to nominate Gov Smith in the event the two-thirds rule is not repealed. However, Christensen believes that the first act of the National Executive Committee meeting next January will be to favor ma j0rity rule.
 Christensen believes that United States Senator c. c. Dill will run for reelection whether Gov. Smith is nominated or not. The Sena- tor is quoted as remarking privat- ely that he would not run on the same ticket with Smith, because the New Yorker is wet.
 "A Scott Bullitt. of Seattle, will be Democratic candidate for Gov ernor," said Christensen. ''and with Smith. Dill and Bullitt rum ming on the same ticket there will be mighty few straight Republican tickets voted in the State of Washington next year.

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 11.--Inede- quate knowledge of atmospheric conditions over the ocean may be put down as one of the principal causes of failure in many of the long distance flight attempts of recent months. believed Lieut.. William V. Davis, Jr., who navi- gated Art Goebel's "Woolaroc, :" the prize winning monoplane. in the Dole race from California to Hawaii.
 Conditions over the ocean are quite different from those found in land flying, he says, and de- mand quick and accurate action in control of the plane. Ocean flyers thus far also have taken off without the important weather in- formation which comes from high altitude observations at sea, a guide long available to the land pilot.
 "rog prevalls much of the time and storms arise suddenly over the ocean," Davis explains. Tt is not strange ir the least that a pilot who is expert in flying over land might find himself helpless at sea because of unfamiliarity with ocean atmospheric conditions. The matter of a pilots judgment and ability in selecting the right altitude at which to fly under pre- vailing conditions is most Import. ant.
 ITO me, the other causes of fail. ure in these attempts were i'm proper navigation; the ever pres ent danger of material failure in the engine. such as the breaking of an oil or gas line, and the use of land planes.
 From these mistakes, however, will come multiple engines in seaworthy planes, experienced pt- lots and navigators in sea-flying. and complete and accurate infor-
