RELIGION AND BEER
ISSUES DENOUNCED
Former Secretary Daniels
Urges Democrats to Attack
dollar Diplomacy"
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Democrats must stop this talk
about beer and religion and start
hostile and militant attack against the
present rule of the privileged few and
dollar diplomacy" if they hope for
success. Josephus Daniels. Secretary
of the Navy under President Wilson,
declared today during a visit here.
I'VE have the house of Morgan now
dominating our diplomacy and the
house of Mellon controlling our tax
system for their own benefit, he as
serted. The people are no longer
represented and unless they are
stopped and thrown out, this country
will get in the situation like Europe,
but instead of having earls and counts,
we will have barons of industry with
the rest of the people vassals.
Calls Naval ParIeys "Farces."
THAT is the issue for the Democrats,
and unless they seize it and fight it
| with all their power they won't get
anywhere. The Democratic party has
got to get back to it's spirit of 1912.
A soft, mealy-mouthed policy won't
do
Mr.. Daniels described both the
Washington and Geneva naval con-
ferences as "farces."
I'VE should say to England he
said, that we are ready and willing
to cut our Navy very greatly, but
we are going to be equal. The United
States should have a Navy equal
| to any navy in the world. We should
| answer the Geneva conference by
building cruisers.
We will never get a satisfactory
naval reduction unless we adopt the
principle Of the League OF Nations
whereby all nations would reduce
| uniformly.
LAS a result of the Washington
conference we went ahead like fools
and sunk ships as the North Caro-
o'na with 16-inch guns and kept such
old antlQuated vessels at the WyO-
ming with 12-inch guns.
IF the Navy had done that it should
have been court-martialed, but the
Navy was not allowed to say word.
They wouldn't even let Secretary Den
by serve on the commission, but pat
young r. r. on. If 1 had been DENLY
l would have resigned then.
Hughes didn't know anything about
the Navy. He thought drea adnaugtts
represented the unit Of naval strength
| when any Navy man knows that de.
stroyers are more important"
Visits NOtables.
Mr.. Daniels called on Secretary Will
bur today and congratulated him on
| his reply to Admiral Thomas p.
Magruder, who assailed the Navy in a
magazine article as being over
organized and eXtravagant
Mr.. Daniels also visited William G..
! McAdoo, who served in the Wilson
| cabinet with him, but declined to dis
| cuss this visit. He also refused to
comment on Gov. Smiths candidacy
other than to say that Smith had a
| lot Of friends in North Carolina who
| thought he had made good governor.

BUSINESS TREND
ELATES CAPITAL
Federal Reserve Reports
Show Record Loans and
Investments.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

There is no COnCealing the gratifl-
cation felt in Washington that Sep
tember has shown such an encourag-
ing trend in the outlook for business
There used to be occasions when
politics was uppermost in the thoughts
OF the official set here and, of course,
the unusual situation facing the two
parties is an absorbing topic of in
terest, but the primary consideration.
after all, is what the economic out
look happens to be.
For this reason more than passing
attention is being given the monthly
report of the Federal Reserve Board,
which shows a record breaking volume
of loans and investments, increased
production in industry and larger re-
turns from farm prices so that both
wholesale and retail distribution has
materially increased.
The reports Just available show that
August marked the turn of the tlde
in what has been from many aspects
an unsatisfactory year.
. Farm Situation Better.
Perhaps the most encouraging fac
tor Of all is the improvement In tne
agricultural situation. Not only nave
the crops been beyond expectation, but
consumption has increased in many
commodities along with the higher
prices. Consumption OF cotton, 1or
instance, is unusually large.
The moment the farmer gets an in
creased price for his commodities his
purcha sing power is felt in both the
wholesale and retail business o. the
country. The Autumn months are
expected, therefore. to be very ac-
tive, compensating, to large eN-
tent, for slackness earlier in the year.
Indeed, while in many respects 1927
may not compare at all with the re-
markable gains made In 1926. the
feeling is beginning to grow that this
year will stack up very well against
some of the normal years since 1921.
Credit System Helpful.
The elasticity Of the American
credit system has, of course. enabled
business to adjust itself to ups ana
downs in the curve of industry. but
the underlying factor, which is re
ported from every side, is confidence
in the opportunities of American busl-
ness both at home and abroad.
A good deal of the difficulty with
business conditions from time to time
is recognized as psychological. Some
thing optimistic about the inevitable
turning upward in the Fall of the
year has spread through the business
structure, 80 that business is proceed
ing more steadily and confidently.
The importance of business
ana lysis, as made by officials, is that
they are not gazing at the fiuctua-
tions of speculative stocks but at the
Fundamental factors which influence
trade. Theirs is a national view
point. based on disinterested study
of essential facts reported through
the II Federal reserve districts. Ard
it is no secret that the general feel
ing now is that the next monthly
report will show an even better out
look than the one just issued.
