EDWARDS RAPS
WHISPERING
CAMPAIGN

Charges that the RepuhIican
party is lending both moral ana
financial support to ''disgruntled's
Democratic defeatists III the SOUTH
were made in ! statement today BY
senator Edward /. Edwards D) OF
New Jersey.
The Southern die-hards were con.
nected BY Edwards with the .'re.
ligions whispering campaign which
is being directed against Gov. Al
Smith.
IF Catholic cannot Be elected
to the Presidency it Il time both
Catholics and Protestants were APP
prised OF the fact so that the couu-
try WIN know that the Eighteenth
Amendment Is not the only proyi-
sion of the Constitution that Is be.
ing nullified.s Edwards declared.
Rum Real Issue
The real issue Of the campaign,
Edwards said, is prohibition. He
declared that If Hoover ''straddles
the LIQUOR issue he will lose not
only every large industrial Eastern
State, but thousands Of votes In the
corn belt.
The tariff question win hardly
enter the campaign as an issue. &C
cording to Edwards.
Edwards believes that the num-
her Of women who will vote this
year viii be unprecedented. This
he interprets as highly favorable to
his party.
Women to Aid
Women all over the country will
stand behind Smith on the liquor
question, because they are worried
at seeing their sons and daughters
drinking the cheap. poisonous moon
shine that is so easily obtainable in
spite of the prohibition laws" he
declared.
Where drinking even good
whisky was formerly disgraeeful
in public. drinking poisonous liquor
has now become respectable, and
the women OF the country want to
correct this situation by bringing
about true temperance" Edwards
said.

SMI I Il INSISTS
ON DEBAT [ IN
CHURCH

ALBANY, II. ", Aug. q. Gov.
Al smith today was awaiting witt
keen interest formal reply from
the Rev. John Roach straton, pas.
tor OF Calvary Baptist Church, New
York. whom he challenged to de-
bate after the Clergyman blnad char
atterized him as the deadHest fos IN
America to moral progress.
DR. Straton's suggestion that the
debate take place in Madison square
Garden and that later they cam
paign through the South, debating
smiths political career, will be
fatty rejected by the Governor, ac-
cording to his advisers. The exacu-
tive will insist that DIR. Straton per.
nit him to defend his stand on
moral issues from the pulpit of
Calvary Church where the attack
originated.
Answer for white
In the event that DIR. Sraton re-
fuses to open his church to the
Governor the latter plans to issue a
formal statement within the next
few days in which he will reply no.
only to the New York minister, but
also TO William Allen White, Kan
sas editor. White recently assailed
the Governor, insisting that his
record when a member of the state
assembly showed he always voted
to protect the saloon and the liquor
Il attic.
The Governor has devoted a
great part of the present week to
an exhaustive study of the 20.year-
old legislative records, refreshing
his memory regarding bills for
which /. he voted when young
assemblyman. He was about to
issue a formal reply to White when
he discovered that DR.. Straton had
fired broadside at him containing
even more bitter charges than those
of the Kansas editor.
After a conference with several
OF his close advisers the Governor
decided to issue his challenge to
DR.. Straton, figuring it would be a
good move for him to open his
campaign for the Presidency by
answering the attacks made upon
his political career.
Eager for Fray
In his letter to DR., Straton the
Governor suggested that they meet
in debate any time during the week
OF September 2. It was learned
today, however, that Smith is so
anxious to answer the charge that
he is a foe to moral progress that
he will accept any date suggested
by the New York clergyman, pro
vided it is after August %, the
date of his official notification.
II the meeting is arranged in pr
Straton's church there is only one
other request the Governor will
make-that the debate be broadcast
through a network OF radio sta
tons. The Governor desires the
radio hookup so he can tell the
voters of the country just where he
stands on all the moral issues OF
the day.
In the meantime the Governor Is
working hard to complete his
acceptance speech by the middle OF
next week He expects TO confer
here shortly with Democratic
leaders from several states.
