MADE IN 5TH Ward
Democrats lnd Republicans AA
Support It Polls

With Rialto hall and adjacent
corridors packed solidly with men
and women and with several hun
dred others unable to gain admis-
sion. democratic campaign speakers
delivered their last prediction
message last night.
Meanwhile the republican speak
ers addressed Z small gathering In
the Falcon hall less than one block
distant, and at Central Junior High
school 800 voters listended Ia
speakers In the Italian language. In
tho same hall on the preceding day,
an italian voters rally was carried
on amid boots and jeers. On these
facts. the democrats opened their
election day drive today confident
Of victory.
Judge w. F.. Mangan was the
principal speaker at the Rialto hall
gathering. He condemned the re.
publican party for Its campaign tao
tics. declaring much OF its literature
Is scurrilous. Attorney Thomas #.
McDonough. Fred Hollfelder and
Paul Nurcxyk, legislative candidates,
, made final plea for support.

speakers including Attorney General
Benjamin w. Alling,. Senator Ed

Bengston and William F. Lange can
didates for the legislature made q
final plea to a large number OF
Polish-American citizens to vote the
straight republican ticket. at the
rally at the Falcon hall. The rally
was originally scheduled for Sunday
night, but outside of few. the ma
jority Of people went to a demo-
cratic rally held at the Rialto hall.
The surprise speech of the eve
ming was given by William F. hange,
In terms Of personal experience.
The speaker recalled the times OF
Cleveland's administrator and stat
ed that 1t was during that admin
istration that he was out of work
the only time in his life.
Attorney General Alling stated
that experimenting Is = costly thing
and that the election of a demo-
cratic administration would mean
just that, with industries slowing
down and consequent lack Of work
because the manufacturers would
not dare stock up their warehouses
not knowing what changes would
take place III the tariff regulations
AS for the tariff. tbs speaker said
that the democratic party during all
It's campaigns, vigorously stood by Z
protective tariff. but when 1t took
hold of the reins Of government the

them.
Referring to the prohibition issue
Attorney General Alling stated that
no president. no matter how hard he
tries, can change the law as change
can only be accomplished through a
vote Of three-fourths of the states
which. he said, is practically an I'M
, possibility because before the 18th
amendment was ever passed there

He agreed that the law has brought
no good to the nation. but in order

 Emphasizing that he was farm CT himself and was speaking the farm sentiment" instead of his in- dividual opinion. Maddock declined to be drawn out flatly in favor of Gov. Smith declaring: T do not want 10 express my personal opinion at all. I am for the best interests of agriculture. and the agricultural organizations of this state are eigAty per cent for Smith,"
 And you are for them-with them"' reporter suggested.
 T am With them all the way down the line." Maddock replied

 MaddOck, who like Smith Is a Catholic, said nothing had occurred 10 make him change his mind about Hoover at the republican national convention. He declared the former commerce secretary could not win in North Dakota because he did not properly represent the agricul- tural interests"
 He said the farm sentiment in his state rings true" in Minnesota and also in South Dakota, and expressed the opinion that the great bulk" of the former LaFollette vote in North Dakota would be for Gov. Smith.
 Gets Independent Backing
 While some of his followers brought word that he faced an up- hill battle in North Dakota. the nominee was happy to learn from others that. despite weak demo- cratic organization he was gaining support from independent voters.
 Coolidge won North Dakota's five electoral votes in 1924. but Smith supporters point out that the ccm- hined LaFoletta- Davis vote topped that given the president by approxi- mately 5000.
 Mrs. Smith disclosed that she was enjoying the campaigning with her husband and that she intended to accompany him on his future tours.
