Turning Since Recent Cam

BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, october 49, Everett
Sanders. chairman of the Republican
National Committee. made an account
ing of the campaign to date last night
in a radio address and declared the
voters are surging toward Republican
success in the November 8 election.
President Hoover's acceptance speech
after his nomination, his addresses at
Des Moines and Cleveland and "the
compelling arguments presented by
former President Coolidge" last week in
New York, he said, have practically
cleared away" what he described as "a
three-year campaign of attack by the
Democratic party costing about mil
lion dollars
IT was the opening speech of the
campaign delivered by President Hoo
yer at Des Moines on october that
inaugurated the entire Republican
campaign" Sanders said. That speech
was the signal for releasing lombard
ment to present the truth to every
voter in America and break down the
effects of the Democratic propaganda.
At Des Moines the President had a
heart to-heart talk with his old neigh
bors, in which he revealed the ordeal
of three trying years, touched the
nothing else could. . I"
His speech at Cleveland last Satur-
day night was the address of the Pres
ident of the United States pointing out
! the accomplishments of his admins
tration. These two speeches
| together with the compelling arguments
presented by former President Coolidge
at the New York meeting have practi-
cally cleared away the effects Of the
! Democratic propaganda"
Sanders said that a careful survey
of conditions and an analysis of re-
ports from workers had been made anc
declared:
Let me assure you that we will carry
| Illinois"
He added that, following the Presi-
dents two latest speeches, at Cleveland
and Des Moines, other normally Re-
publican States claimed by the Demo.
Gratis reported definite movement:
toward the Republican cause and
that the G. O. P felt confident Of re.
electing the President.

DOVER, Del, October 19.-The po-
litical campaign in Delaware has SO
many local sidelights that national is
sues, with the exception of the eco
nomic situation and the tariff, are not
being stressed to great extent.
Each of the major parties in State
convention approved the prohibition
stand taken by its national convention.
What differences there are on this sub
ject come in for very little discussion.
Prohibition Will, however, be a factor
in the balloting in Delaware next month.
Independent Dry Ticket.
The failure of the controlling element
in the Republican party to renOminate
Representative Robert C. Houston Of
Georgetown and the fact that 1t noml-
mated in his place Reuben Satterthwalte,
jr., OF Wilmington, who is supported by
the vets, has resulted in the forma-
ton by some dry Republicans of an in
dependent ticket, with Rev. S. B. Short
of Milford as the congressional candl-
date. An effort is being made to obtain
Democratic dry support for this ticket.
The Short independent movement also
extends to the legislative tickets to the
extent of indorSing dry candidates and
opposing those who are not avowed drys.
Fight for GovernOrship.
Another angle to the Republican fac
ton fight is that for Governor Former
State Senator l. AdolphuS Short, brother
of the independent congressional nomi-
nee, sought the Republican guberna-
torial nomination four years ago and
again this year, but the party named c.
Douglas Buck, who was elected in 1928,
and again named him this year for re-
election The home county Of Short,
Sussex, contended that it was entitled
to the nomination by right of rota-
ton. Some Sussex County Republicans
are capitalizing on the failure Of Sussex
to name the gubernatorial candidate,
and some Republicans in other parts Of
the State opposed to the ruling element
in the party are doing the same. The
Democrats have named Landreth L.
Layton for Governor.

DEMOCRATIC PLEDGE
FOR REDUCTIONS HIT
Senator Watson Says Program Be-
lied by Records Of Last
Congress.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, october Ex-senator
James E. Watson, Republican. of In
diana. in q radio address last night,
charged the Democratic party's pledge
for reduction of taxes and Federal ex-
penditures was belied by its records in
Congress.
The record of the Democratic party
in the last Congress" he said, clearly
shows a deliberate intention to increase
expenditures regardless of conse-
quences."
In addition, he said, every attempt by
President Hoover to sponsor economy
legislation met instant Democratic op-
position, and "every bill that consti-
tuted raid on the public Treasury that
reached the floor of the House received
the support of the Democratic member
ship"
Senator Watson said the Democratic
presidential nominees expressed stand
in favor of governmental retrenchment
appeared inconsistent in the light of his
record as Governor of New York, which
he asserted revealed the cost of Gov
eminent in the State to be "one-third
higher than it was when he took office
The increased cost of government
under President Hoover's term Senator
Watson termed the result of extraordi-
nary and emergency measures.

WILBUR SAYS NEED
IS COMMON SENSE
Interior Secretary Says Hoo.
ver Vote Will Mean Or
derIy Recovery.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
IOWA CITY, Iowa. october 19-An
appeal to voters ito use common sense
and not the emotions" in casting their
ballots in the coming election was made
last night by DR.. Ray Lyman Wilbur,
Secretary of the Interior, In campaign
speech for President Hoover.
Secretary Wilbur asserted that "the
most critical question before our people
is whether they are to register protest
vote against the depression and thereby
defeat our economic recovery which Is
now on its way or whether they will
use their intelligence and allow Presi-
dent Hoover to lead the way out"
He contended that "the Roosevelt
men hope and expect to win the cleo
ton simply on protest vote, they have
not attempted to offer an answer to the
issues of the soldiers bonus, farm relief
or reconstruction"
Secretary Wilbur predicted that the
Democratic party would not change the
tariff schedule if 10 comes into power
The tariff he said. "is merely smoke
screen to battle the people and win the
election"
The speaker lauded President Hoover
for meeting the issues squarely. He
took the question of the soldiers bonus
directly to the American Legion con-
vention at Seattle, and discussed the
problems Of the farmer in the heart OF
the agricultural region at Des Moines,
the Secretary added.
He concluded that "the coming cleo
ton is not a test of the leadership OF
President Hoover, but of the citizens OF
the United States. President Hoover is
known to the whole world as one OF the
greatest constructive leaders Of our day.

HARRISON ATTACKS
HOOVER ON TARIFF
Senator Refers to Econo-
mists' Petition as Stressing
"Mockery of Position"

The petition of 1870 economists who
asked President Hoover for lower tariff
reductions serves to emphasize the
mockery of Mr.. Hoover's position on the
tariff, Senator Pat Harrison of Missis-
sippi declared today.
At the same time, the National Pro-
gressive League issued statement say
ing 1t Is the announced intention of
the President to ignore the views of
these economists. This information,
according to the statement. came from
"a White House spokesman"
Quotes HiIdreth.
The statement quoted Melvin D.
Hildreth, executive secretary of the
league, as saying "it is quite evident
that the President does not desire any
scientific advice on the tariff"
Senator Harrison on the other hand
said these economists had appealed to
Mr.. Hoover not TO sign the Smoot-
Hawley tariff bill.
They foresaw that exactly what has
happened would happen" the Demo
cratic Senator added. The President
is trying to make the best of a bad
situation by his insistence that the pro-
tective tariff system must be main
tanned. The recent action of the Ca
madam government, calculated to cut
another s150,0000 900 annually from oul
already deprecated foreign trade. is al
the answer that I need make to Mr.
Hoover's argument.
Sees Retaliation.
'Mr. Hoover has attempted to say
that there has been no retaliation from
abroad. The Nations economists say
very plainly and without any equivoca-
ton that the retaliatory tariffs art
causing the great suffering. They alsc
say, in direct contradiction to Mr.. Hoo
yer. that labor and agriculture would b
better off with reduced tariff rates.
1T is evident that hope for relief lie:
in the Democratic party and its plat
form, which promises the sort of relic
that the economists say is essential tt
our well being"

Senator Tydings said the amend

had enlisted the assistance of "emin-
ent constitutional authorities" in

study Of the definition of the word
Liquors" in the law.
He pointed out that before 1920
there was tax on beer. a different
tax on wines and still another on
