APPEALS TO SEN. GEORGE
DR.. Straton Writes Appeal to Sen
George and Sec'y Daniels Urg-
ing Them to Leave Smith

Rev. John Roach Straton has written
to Senator George of Georgia and Josephus
Daniels, former Secretary of the Navy,
and called upon those Democratic leaders
to turn their allegiance from Governor
Smith to the moral and religious forces
which will at last sweep the south"
Appealing to Senator George as "my
old-time friend and roommate during
those happy college days in Georgia" the
clergyman counselled him "in love and, I
believe, in true wisdom" to forget the
wrong of party regularity and bide your
time although it may mean a temporary
break for you with the Democratic ma
chine as now dominated by the forces OF
Tammany Hall corruption.
ct know the claim of party regularity
upon you as a public servant elected by
the Democrats, but I firmly believe that
If you knew Smiths record as we know it
up here, and could see the dark and sin
lister forces which are working for his
election in order that they may dominate
him in the Presidents Office as they dom1-
mated him as New York official, you
would revolt even as Senator Simmons,
Senator Owen, our old chum, and Con-
gresham UpshaW, Vance Mccormick, and
other true patriots who put country be-
fore party and feVolted."

Some of the hackers or Governor Smith
are attempting to make capital out OF the
fact that the disreputable Mayor Thomp-
son, of Chicago, has recently declared his
intention to support Herbert Hoover for
the presidency Among the papers re-
sorting to such tactics we find the New
York Times in one of its editorials under
the caption Corrupt and Criminaly'
Among those who proceeded promptly to
answer the Times editorial was DR.. S. e.
Nicholson, former Superintendent of the
Pennsylvania Anti-Saloon League. Mr..
Nichosons letter, as published in the
Times of August 6, is brief but very much
to the point.
To the Editor Of the
Ne1D York Times:
In your editorial Corrupt and
Criminal" you endeavor to break the
force of the Tammany issue in the
present campaign by citing the cor
ruption of the Thompson machine IN
Chicago.
Your editorial would have point
an illustrious son of the Chicago po-
Iitical machine we're a cardidate for
the presidency of the United States,
and especially if said illustrious son
had recently painted halo about the
head of this machine with the label
'it is all right"
Your editorial would have further
point if the Republican voters of Chi
cago had not so recently condemned
the Thompson machine by an over
whelming majority IN the primaries.
In the face of these two facts your
editorial is surprising and utterly
without point.

SMITH ADVOCATES STATES RIGHTS ON PROHIBITION
SEEKS REPEAL OF THE EIGHTEENTH AMENDMENT

Governor Alfred E. Smiths views on
prohibition and its enforcement, as given
In his speech of acceptance of the Demo-
cratic nomination for President of the
United States, at Albany, N. Y. WedneS-
day night, are as follows:
The President of the United States has
two constitutional duties with respect to
prohibition. The first is embodied in his
oath of Office If, with one hand on the
Bible and the other hand reaching up to
Heaven, promise the people of this
country that "I will faithfully execute
the Office of President of the United
States and to the best of my ability pre-
serve, protect and defend the Constitu-
ton of the United States" you may be
sure that I shall live up to that oath to
the last degree. shall to the very limit
execute the pledge of our platform ito
make an honest endeavor to enforce the
Eighteenth Amendment and all other
provisions of the Federal Constitution
and all laws enacter pursuant thereto"
The president does not make the laws.
He does his best to execute them whether
he likes them or not. The corruption in
enforcement activities which caused q
former Republican prohibition admins
traitor to state that three-fourths Of the
dry agents were political ward heelers

DIR. STRATON ACCEPTS
Takes Smith Debate Challenge But
Won't Open His Church

DR.. John Roach Straton on August IT
made public letter to Governor Alfred
E. Smith, in which the pastor asserted
that the failure of the governor to meet
him in Joint debate in any place desig-
mated by Mr. Straton will automatically
brand you before the world as a buffer,
a Tammany trickster and a coward"
Governor Smith has been insisting that
DR.. Straton open his pulpit in Calvary
Baptist church, New York City. to give
him q chance to reply to the statement
made by DR. Straton that Governor
Smith us the deadliest foe In America
today of the forces of moral progress
and true political wisdom" DR.. Straton
expresses his willingness to meet Cover
nor Smith in debate. but refuses to open
his church for the purpose In his letter
to Governor Smith of August II he says
You have challenged me to debate
or a joint discussion of my allega-
tons that your record proves you as
a candidate for the presidency of the
United States to be the deadlliest
foe in America today of the forces
of moral progress and true political
wisdom"
Ihave definitely accepted the chal-
lenge and stand ready to meet you
face to face and submit my proof,
dl4u " give YOU every Oppcl buIlGy w
reply.
AS the challenged party 1 stand on
the e-honored privilege Of
naming the place for the discussion,
and shall name a place that will not
arouse sectarian bitterness nor drag
the religious issue into the contest.
The vital point is that you have
challenged me to a discussion of your
record and not to a personal appear
ance in a church. You have asked
whether I would meet you, and your
last letter demanded reply, Eyes"
or NO" My answer Is emphaticaly
and unchangeably Eyes"
Unless you now stand up under
your own challenge, your action in
running to cover will leave me free to
take whatever steps in the matter I
may deem right, and will automat-
ically brand you before the world as
a buffer, Tammany trickster and a
coward.
Very sincerely yours,
JOHN ROACH STRAToN.
