tions, But Believes People Will
Use Brains Instead.
By the Associated Press.


CLEVELAND. Ohio, October 90
Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the
Interior and college ciassmate of Presi-
dent Hoover. asserted today the Demo-
cratic party Is attempting to win its
way to Clice on the basis OF an emo
tional reaction among the Toters.
Il think the DemocraticS are mis-
taken" he said, land think that the
people will use their brains instead of
their kicking apparatus.
will the majority sit up and look at
the facts, or will they merely go to the
polls and vote the depression? That is
the great decision that must be made" "
Secretary Wilbur asserted the only
insurance policy" the American people
have had was written by President Hoo
yer. The result, he said has given
them only taste of dangers that have
been avoided.
The Presidents outstanding charac-
teristic is courage" he told the City
Club, the non-partisan members OF
which are reputed to be the most crltl-
cal of any audience in the city.
He is not fighting for himself. He
is fighting for the American people, be-
cause he sees that the Democrats have
no program and he realizes that the
American people are endangered

Assails Regimes "UnfufiIIed
Promises and UMealized
Reforms"
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ITHACA, N. Y, October 29-Jchn w
Davis. former Democratic candidate fol
President, tonight assailed the Repub-
Ecan administration as one of promises
unfulflled, reforms unrealized and with
a Treasury once full, but now empty"
Speaking at the Crescent Theater
which was jammed to the rafters, the
former Democratic standard bearer
centered his attack on the Republican
tariff policy, striking at the Hawley-
Smoot tariff again and again.
He charged that this tariff forced
other countries to take measures which
built an economic barrier around Amer
lea curtailing foreign trade. Particu-
larly. he pointed out the recent agree
ment between Canada and England,
which he said would cut of the United
States trade with Canada alone $780,
100000 and as much with England.
Assails Farm Board.
Turning next to the Federal Farm
Board and the agricultural program of
the present administration, he charged
the Farm Board went crazy in price
fixing"
Yet we are told by Mr. Hoover in
his Des Moines speech" Davis con-
tinued, that he never approved of it. "
Mr.. Davis interpreted the report
of the Wickersham Committee as
"damning" to the prohibition cause,
but he declared that the White House
hailed it as an Endorsement of the
Volstead act
CritiScizing President HooverS In
dianapolis speech in regard to the i'm
migration question, he said the Presl-
dent stated that economic conditions
were so bad he had found it neces-
sary to restrict the immigration quotas
and that 100000 a year would
come in if this country would allow it.
Refers to Melons Speech.
Mr.. Davis said that President Hoover
had pointed out that depression here
was "a mere trifle compared with
theirs" but had contradicted himself
with the statement that more of them
had returned to foreign countries be-
cause Of the depression than had come
in.
He assailed Andrew Mellon. Ambas-
sador to Great Britain, as the first
diplomat outside of Benjamin Franklin
who had dared make a campaign
speech on foreign soil" He referred
specifically to the speech Mr.. Mellon
made recently in Manchester. England,
favoring President Hoover's reelection.

Will Make Final Appeal.
The standard bearer of four years
ago, his advisers said, at the Brooklyn
and in Madison Square Garden will
make a final appeal to all his 1928
supporters throughout the country to
throw their full support behind the
ticket headed by Roosevelt.
Smith spent most of the day work
ing in his private car on his speech:
Three times-at Utica, Syracuse and
Rochester-he left the quiet of COM
partment to wave his brown derby at
cheering crowds which ran well into
the thousands.
In each of these throngs some one
brought forth a united cheer by men
tioning the Prank and Al" conference
Roosevelt and Smith had last night,
which wound up with the former Gov
ernor declaring:
IF we'd been a couple OF Frenchmen
we would have kissed each other"
The crowds also brought broad grin
to Smiths face when they shouted ref
erences from his speeches about "the
Idaho potato" and "MabefS wine
bricks"-references he had made to
Senator Borah and Mabel Walker Will
lebrandt.
The general prediction among the
Smith advisers, who Travelled through
New England and up into New York
