ment. did be become a full-f1edged
rooster?

had the best brains of any man of his
time in political life Doesn't this
qualify him for the presidency?

ROBINSON REVIEWS
ATTACK ON HOOVER
Reiterates Charge That Food
Policy Kept Farm
Prices Down.
BY the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press.
EN- ROUTE WITH SENATOR ROB-
INSON TO CASPER, Wyo., october 10
Wyoming Democrats had before them
today in their fight to swing the States
three electoral votes to Gov. Smith a
reiteration by Senator Joseph T. Rob-
inSon of his charge that Herbert Hoov-
er's policy as food administrator was
to hold prices of live stock and agri-
cultural commodities below the level of
the market price"
The Democratic vice presidential
nominee renewed the charge made
earlier in his campaign that Hoover
had sent telegram to George N. Peek
one of the farm leaders. declaring prices
would go beyond the level then obtain
ing if control measures were lifted.
The original declaration of this
charge brought the Senator into con-
f1ict with Dr. Hubert Work, Republican
national chairman, conflict which
subsequently engaged Work and John
J. RaSkob, Democratic national chair
man, in an argument that lasted more
than a week
In his speech at Cheyenne last night,
which in a number of respects was
given in an atmosphere wholly different
than that which characterized other
addresses of his Western tour, Rob-
inson also charged Hoover with de-
claring that the only way to relieve the
live stock producers was to depress
the price of corn.
Hoover's policy, Mr. Robinson said.
was to "Set the price at a level far
below the market price 1t is not fair
for those who are campaigning for Mr..
Hoover to advocate his election with
the claim that he sought to keep prices
at the highest possible level. The rec
ord proves that the opposite was true.
1T was due in part to this policy
of Mr. Hoover that the agricultural
depression occurred after the war. And
in that period the Republican candi-
date advocated holding down produc-
tion to consumption a policy which
would have driven thousands of farm
erS from their homes to seek a liveli-
hood in the cities"
Audience Sits Quietly.
The Senator declared that both
Hoover and Senator Curtis the Repub-
iican nominee for Vice President. are
advocating higher tariff rates as a re-
lief for agriculture, and asked why If
they believed that to be the remedy.
Hoover, as chief adviser to President
Coolidge, and Curtis as the leader of
the Republican party in the Senate,
permitted eight years to go by without
applying that remedy while they were
in complete control of the Govern
ment." -
There was very little applause and
no outburstS during the main portion
of the speech. The audience sat SO
quietly that it seemed scarcely to be
there
Toward the end of the nominees ad-
dress, when he mentioned the name of
Gov. Smith and declared that "the
American people will never penalize
great public servant because of his
membership in a particular church, .
there was loud clamor of applause,
whistling and shouting.
Senator Robinson also tore into the
Republican campaign statement that
prosperity had attended the last eight
years, and presented figures which he
maintained 'punctures the windbag of
Coolidge economy"

$40 Received For Red Cross

The sum of $40 has been received
by Mrs. j. C. Renninger, treasurer of
the Garrett County Chapter, Ameri-
can Red Cross, to be used in behalf
of the Florida and Porto Rican storm
sufferers. M. A. Browning, Kitzmil-
Ter, gave S., and Mrs. Eliza Funden-
berg and her daughter Miss Thekla
Fundenberg, Oakland, contributed the
balance. Garrett county's quota is
$1,000 to this fund.
The total amount thus far contrib
uted is $3,357, $50, and the appeal to
the nation is for minimum fund of
five millions. Thousands of people
are being cared for and the greatest
danger now confronting the victims
is the possible spread of an epidemic
The members of the Garrett County
Chapter urge the immediate assis-
tance of all those who can contribute
to the fund. Money will be received
in several of the Garrett cuonty banks
or may be sent direct to Mrs. Rennin-
ger. 1t is hoped that possibly the
churches will assist in this matter.

THE SERVICES OF THE
BANKS

Not many years ago one could often
find people who had grudge against
banks and bankers. They would often
declaim against these people, whom
they believed eXacted a tribute from
the people and grew rich out of the
peoples money.
Most people get so many free SER
vices out of banks nowadays that this
feeling has mostly disappeared. They
give US an enormous amount of free
advice about investments, business
management, and handling of money
affairs, that if we had to pay for all
that counsel as we have to pay in
some fields, a heavy bill would be
charged us. But they look at it in a
generous way that when they save
money for people much of that money
saved goes on deposit with them.
An enormous amount of money is
wasted annually by being lost in
worthless investments. There is no
excuse for such losses, when most Of
them would have been saved if people
had only gone to their home town
bankers and asked advice.
When those slick statesmen come
around and want you to put your cash
in that stock that is going to make
you rich in a short time, your banker
will show you any flaws that exist in
the proposition.
The banks of today are more pros
porous than ever before, and one rea-
son is that they are doing a great deal
of advertising. Old fashioned bank
advertisements commonly consisted
mostly of announcements of the loca-

GOVERNOR SMITH SHOULD
MAKE MORE SPEECHES

Governor Smiths first speaking trip
has been an unqualified success
from the Republican standpoint. If
he does no better in subsequent eff
forts, Herbert Hoover may yet have
to thank him for being the most eff
fective orator on his side.
1t now appears to be the consensus
of opinion that Gov. Smiths chances
of election would have been far great
er had he never ventured upon his
western expedition, for upon that trip
he demonstrated to the country that
lies west of the Alleghenies that he
is hopeless provincial-that he SIM
ply can't think in terms of anything
but New York City.
That metropolis, the home of the
Tammany Tiger, is at once his Alpha
and Omega. 1t is the only thing he
understands, because repeated cleo
tons in his own state have demon
strated that he even lacks the conf
dence of New York farmers whom he
so frequently has attempted to Tam
manyize. But, thanks to that Repub-
lican majority in the legislature which
he has undertaken to belittle, New
York farmers haven't yet found it
necessary to bow to Tammany.
Gov. Smiths trip has demonstrated
that it was no idle statement he made
when he said that state for state of
the union is duplication of New
York state. That is at once an affront
and an injustice, and fully explains
the hopeless maze of words upon
which he entered in his several dis
cussions that revealed him to be COM
pletely lacking in an understanding of
the aims, aspirations and problems Of
the west and middle west.
Nobody knows what he was driving
at in his farm speech; his Oklahoma
address was as unfortunate as it was
unjustifed because therein he injected
a religious issue into the campaign;
his Denver address, according to per-
sons who should be favorable to him,
was a flop" and might better not
have been made from the Democratic
standpoint, and so the list could be
extended.
While the Democratic candidate has
been indulging IN Tammany politics,
Mr.. Hoover made his Newark labor
speech, an address which reveals the
mind of a statesman and a man who
knows not only what it means to work
with his hands but who is dedicated
to use all his wisdom and experience
to get a square deal for the farmers
and workers of this country.
And, what is more, the impression
is growing daily that the people of the
country have sized up things in the
same way and that Hoover will re-
ceive the call to the higher service of
the American people. But, it is too
early for any Republican to stop
working for the election of the ticket.
