HOOVER ATTACKS
BOURBON POLICY


they have sure confidence that
they will have a voice in the ad-
ministration of our government"
Explains Crisis
Swinging to a discussion of the
financial and economic situation,
Mr.. Hoover repeated his story of
the monetary crisis, telling his au-
dience this crisis was 80 great that
many Of the leading banks sought
directly or indirectly to convert
their assets into gold or its equi-
valent, with the result that they
practically ceased to function as
credit institutions; that many of
our citizens sought flight for their
capital to other countries, that
many Of them attempted to hoard
gold in large amounts e. yet these
forces were overcome, perhaps by
narrow margins-and this action
demonstrates what the courage of
a nation can accomplish under the
resolute leadership of the Repub-
lican party"

years in science and industry, and
then recounting the effect of the
depression, Mr.. Hoover said 1--WE
may thank God that in view of
this storm 100000 still have their
jobs; yet this must not distract
our thoughts from the suffering of
the other 100000"
The President charged his OPP
ponents with desiring initiation, and
said that I'm our special situation
today, the issuance of greenbacks
means the immediate departure of
this country from the gold stand
ard, as there could be no provision
for the redemption of such cur
rency in gold.'
After calling the Roosevelt policy
one of stagnation and despair, y
Mr.. Hoover warned that measures
espoused by the opposition party
would transfer vast responsibilities
to the federal government and
"break down our form of govern
ment."

He said the Hoover administra-
ton neglected to take advantage
of the suggestions in the five point
program for unemployment relief
which was drawn up during the 1922
depression under the leadership of
the President, who was then sec
rotary of commerce.
Roosevelt then offered his pro-
gram for relief, embodying among
other things, the following:
l. Aid to meet the immediate dis
treSs.
2. Permanence of employment
through scientific planning.
3. Expediting of actual construc-
ton of federal public works.
He called also for coordinated
system Of employment exchanges,
the advance planning of public
works, and unemployment reserves.
The governor reiterated his
pledge to work for the restoration
of the nations purchasing power
in order to give to SO millions of
people who live upon agriculture a
price for their products in excess
of the cost Of production.

P. A. Thaanum, secretary for the
Republican headquarters in this
city states that he has a record
of the differences in the tariff
schedules under the Democratic

A comparison of the Democratic
Underwood tariff and the Repub-

that much higher rates prevailed
