respondence between this country and
Canada to show that the Dominion is
offering determined opposition to con-

Raskob. Democratic national chairman,
i'll an open letter to DR.. Hubert Work
Republican national chairman, made
public at Democratic national head
quarters yesterday, declared that the
Republican party has now become
simply the prohibition party of the
United States
Il have noted genera call to arms
OF all your speakers. from Mr.. Hoover
down, since our demonstration that
the issue of the policy of protection is
no longer in politics." Mr.. Raskob
wrote. Il quite understand your per-
turbation. Without that issue, YOUR
party has only one permanent policy
left. You now become simply the pro-
hibition party OF the United States" /"
Charges Misrepresentation.
Going into a discussion of Gov.
Smiths attitude toward the Underwood
tariff and Mr.. Hoover's attitude on the
postwar wheat price, Mr.. Raskob
charged DR.. Work and other Republic
an leaders with deliberate misrepre-
sentation of fact and with evasion of
his challenges to prove the truth of
their assertions
He said the purpose of his first let
ter to Dr. Work, in which he offered to
resign as national chairman and vote
for Hoover if DR.. Work could prove
that Gov. Smith had indorsed the I'm
derWood tariff, was ito raise question
OF your veracity."

reference to- your assertion. / assume
from this that you thus express indif-
ference to the question which 1t was

This is not the first occasion in this
campaign in which you have led, and
your speakers have followed. a course
evincing like indifference to the same
virtue. You recently and publicly
charged Senator Robinson with falsely
asserting that Mr.. Hoover had held
down the price Of wheat after the
armistice. / promptly referred
you to the cable in which Mr.. Hoover
himself had accepted responsibility fol-
keeping down the price of wheat. You
did not reply personally. but, almost
Immediately afterward, Senator Borah

of which this cable was the climax--al
OF which was irrelevant to the point in
