WASHINGTON. NOV. I.-Presi-
dent Hoover returned today from a
20 hour tour OF five eastern states
IN which he reiterated the Amer
icanisms q his governmental poll
Cics and brought his campaign TO
q climax with the charge that his
opponents would destroy the very
foundations of the American sys-
tenn
To the 10000 citizens VINO greet
ed him along his hurried way from
Washington, and to the $4,000 who
cheered him in Madison Square
garden last night, the President
sounded a warning against alter
ing the foundations of our nation
al life which have been builded
through ge'Jsrations of testing and
struggle
To the communities through
which he passed. Mr.. Hoover
preached the doctrine of a protec-
tive tariff. declared his administra-
ton had saved this nation from
a quarter of a century of chaos and
degeneration and saved the
integrity Of our government and
the honesty Of the American dol
lar"
To the regular forces of Demo-
crazy opposing him for the presi-
deDcy, he linked as demanding
revolutionary changes of a pro-
found and penetrating character"
such dissident senators as Norris,
LaFollette, Cutting, Long and
Wheeler.
Mr. Hoover was introduced to
his audience in New York by Mrs.
Theodore Roosevelt, widow of the
late President. It was one of the
most enthusiastic gatherings of his
followers yet he-j during his cam
paign.
Hecklers Thrown Out
Hecklers' interruption came just
as the President was about to make
his address. Through the loud
speakers the great crowd distinct
ly heard the yell, You're a liar
you're a liarl"
Instantly there was an uproar
in the neighborhood of the heckler,
and in the melee he was beaten
with fists and mauied, while police
and detectives rushed to get him
out.
For the remainder of the PresI-
dents visit, the crowds were Wild
ly enthusiastic, although several
"boos" were heard on his way to
and from the station.
Outside, another crowd of 10000
struggled vainly to reach the lobby
of the garden. but were forced to
content themselves with listening
to the speech from series of loud
speakers covering three square
blocks. A second overflow meeting
was mere comfortably seated in
Carnegie hall
This campaign Is more than a
contest between two men," Presi-
dent Hoover said. 1T is more than
a contest between two parties. It
is a contest between two philoso-
phies Of government"
The President urged his listen
ers TO lock further into what rev.
olutionary changes have been pro-
posed by the candidates them
selves"
I'VE must look" he said, into
the type of leaders who are cam
paigning for the Democratic tick

wen known all their lives, whose
demand for a change in the Ameri-
can system Is frank and foreeful

Unless these men feel assurance
of support to their ideas they GER

candidates and the Democratic par
