 Hoover: 623,570 Smith: 379,311

U. s. HAS EVERYTHING NOW BUT CONFIDENCE
Confidence Will Come When Budget Is Bal

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.--Replying to Republican ch arges, Speaker John Nance Garner, Democratic nominee for Vice President, last night in a campaign address charg- ed the Hoover Administration with concealing the true financial cons dition of the country during the crisis.
 Speaker Garner declared that the greatest need of the United States is a Budget balanced by careful economy and a scientific revenue.
 Confidence Lacking
 We have at this moment de- clared the nominee, every ele- ment to promote prosperity, except one. That one thing. is confidence i in our credit. z
 Il say the moment the Budget is balanced, money will flow hcre from all parts of the world, and from domestic hoards seeking safe ty in employment. < - ...Ii2a EeGQEdS noW .thak flArir& tie recent Buidgsf bafancing. efforts of the Administration were either hopelsssly at sea as to the actual Treasury situation for the past two years or else the facts were de- liberately concealed as to the true state of affairs"
 Credit Disturbed
 Continuing, the Democratic nom- inee said the aspect is most diS- turbing to American credit This Government has sat on conceal- ment and action for two years and allowed the world to believe its finances were sound"
 Declaring it is his opinion that it is the Administrations murky. involved and obscure financial poll icy that is responsible for much of the continued uncertain condi- tion,' Speaker Garner said:
 Democratic Record
 Now I submit the record that shows Democratic Congress is de- termined and willing to go the limit for a balanced Budget.
 The record shows this purpose was frustrated by the same meth ods this Administration has prac- ticed for three consecutive years.
 The Budget is not balanced and the whole job must be done over"
 The Speakers address is con- sidered by Democratic Party lead- CTS as his first major pronounce ment of his campaign which will be devoted almost entirely to the activities of this Congress.
