What are the facts? A statement was
made upon the floor of the United
States Senate by Senator Wagner of
New York, based upon that very report,
that over four million men were out Of
work and that statement up to this
time has not been successfully chal-
lenged. 1t has in substance been ac-
cepted by every one who has made a
study of the problem and has been con-
firmed by reports of charity and relief
organizations in various parts of the
country.

MITCHELL URGES
ELECTION OF SMITH
Suspended Army Air Service Aide
Asserts G. o. P. Is Symbol
of Dishonesty"
RY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, November brig. Gen.
William Mitchell, suspended assistant
chief of the Army Air Service, criticized
prohibition, the Republican party and
Herbert Hoover in speech prepared for
delivery today and urged the election Of
Gov. Alfred E. Smith as President.
The Republican party, he said, "has
become the symbol for conservatism
monopoly, selfishness and dishonesty in
Government"
Gov. Smith believes in "a liberal poll
icy of common sense, honesty and law
enforcement, Gen. Mitchell said.
"This desire to amend the prohibition
law is sponsored by responsible, think
ing people, who see in prohibition as it
exists simply a monstrous system that
defeats its own object" he continued.
1.-THE eighteenth amendment" he de-
clared, "has been a dismal failure"
'The Republican party is the Prohi-
bition party. Most of its members
drink, but because they think they can
get more votes they adopt the hypo-
critical attitude of favoring the contin-
uance of this terrible condition into
which few zealotS plunged U.S."
Gen. Mitchell charged Hoover with
monopolizing aeronautical authority as
Secretary of Commerce.

far signiflcd their intention of seek

This is in line with the action taken
by the State committee. which almost
unanimously voted to send the dele
cation uninStructed and untrammelled.
Efforts to pledge the delegation for or
against any candidate, it is predicted,
will meet with a rebuke and the action
of the State committee cited as reason
for such action.
Khan Seeks Delegation.
1t is foregone conclusion that the
Khan will endeavor to send a hand
picked" delegation to the Democratic
convention. but leaders are finding
trouble in agreeing upon the personnel
of the delegation. Among loyal Klans-
men are numbr of politicians who
are handicapped by past official records
These are seeking a place on the dele

the leaders
While the conservative element is
casting about for delegation which
will go TO the convention with an open
mind. there Is another faction within
the party ranks which is seeking to
select an anti Khan delegation and also
a delegation which will be anti-Smith.
