GREATEST MORAL
PROBLEM IS SEEN
Bishop Mouzon Says "Side-
walks of New York" Have
Won Temporary Victory.
By the Associated Press.

BN tue ASSOttdtCu IifHS-
CHARLOTTE, N. c., June 30.-The
greatest moral problem with which the
people of America have been confronted
in many years was precipitated upon
them with the nomination of Gov. AL
fred Smith of New York as the Demo-
cratic candidate for president of the
United States, Bishop Edwin d. Mouzon,
Methodist Episcopal Church South, de-
clared today In a statement given the
Charlotte Observer.
After years of education conducted
by the highest spiritual leadership of
the Nation, the prohibition of the liquor
traffic was written into the Constitu-
ton of the Republic" the statement
says in part. I'm our hour of peril
we turn again to the women of Amer
lea. Once more let them cry For God
and Home and Native Land!'
THE situation is vastly more serious
than professional party politicians can
imagine it to be. The Methodist
Church South is not concerned
as to what political party man may
align himself with. nor does Southern
Methodism care what a mans political
principles may be. But our Protestant
churches are profoundly interested in
all that concerns the moral and spirit
ual life of the people.
q" AS ministers and members
We are not going to be frightened by
the cry of the politician that church
and state must be kept separate
but we do insist that the minister or
the layman who is not deeply con-
cerned when we face the open effort to
destroy the labors of our moral and
spiritual leaders of the past generation
"a has not yet attained to a full
appreciation of his duty as a Christian
and citizen.
1.-The Sidewalks of New York have
had their temporary victory in Hous-
ton. The moral and spiritual ideals OF
our Southern democracy will now be-
gin to make themselves heard in such
manner as shall show righteousness
when aroused is always victorious"

SOCIALIST CANDIDATE
ASSAILS NOMINEES
Thomas Scores Hoover and Smith.
Says Governor Is Silent
on Vital Issues.

By the Associated Press
FOREST PARK. Pa. June 30
Norman Thomas. Socialist candidate for
President, assailed both the Republican
and Democratic nominees in addressing
the convention of the League for Indus
trial Democracy here tonight. Speaking
of the Republican choice. he said:
MIR. Hoover sat silent in his cabinet
seat during the oil scandal investigation
He used members of the Ohio crowd
during his preconvention campaign and
was indebted to its successful conclusion
to Mellon and Ware"
OF Gov. Smith. Democratic nominee,
he said:
He vetoed most Of the election laws
that would have made fraud more
difficult He has expressed himself on
no national economic problem OF
supreme Importance except to favor the
reactionary step giving up the Federal
Governments inheritance tax. He
evaded the child labor amendment. to
which he was committed by his own
partys declaration
ITO complete the picture" Thomas
said, 1.-The stock market fell when
Hoovers nomination was certain It
rose when Smiths nomination was
definitely assured"

come to hand. and 1t is expected the
President will do as we'll for him.
When President Coolidge formally an
nounces that Mr.. Hoover Is reSigning
as Secretary of Commerce TO be pre-
sented to the Nation as Republican
nominee for the presidency of the
United States. 1t is confidently expected
by Hoover campaignerS that the Presi-
dent will review Mr. Hoover's career in
the cabinet. leading up to a declaration
OF his part in fostering prosperity,
which will be one of the most important
campaign documents in urging upon the
electorate the continuity OF important
national policies.
Declines TO Make Speech.
Meanwhile. apart from the Presidents
political reflections and his recreation
in pursuing the trout In the Brule River,
his interest is actively engaged in in
ternational peace. For that reason he
declined to make Fourth OF July
speech in Superior. If he spoke at all,
ii would have to be on the subject
uppermost In his mind. the codiflcation
of peace. which he would regard as the
browning achievement of his admins
tration. Because of the status of Sec
rotary Kellogg's latest peace negotia-
tons with IA foreign powers the PreSl-
dent does not wish to make any public
utterance.
To offset the disappointment of the
people of Superior and the nearby sec
/ lions of Wisconsin and Minnesota, who
hoped to see him in Superior on the
Fourth of July. the President has con-
scented to his first public ceremony the
day before the Fourth, when he will
accept a fishing rod presented by the
Boy Scouts of Superior.
Tomorrow the President plans to go
to church with Mrs Coolidge at Bru.e
where the blind lay preacher. John
Taylor. will again conduct the service.
It is doubtful that John Coolidge, who
| is already on the way here from North
ampton will reach here in time to join
his parents for church, He Is expected
later in the day or Monday morning.
