Economy Is Advocated

The Democratic party Solemnly
promises by appropriate action to
put into effect the principles, pol
icies and reforms herein advocated,
and to eradicate the policies, meth
DDS and practices herein con-
demned.
We advocate:
l. An immediate and drastic le-
duction of governmental eXpendi-
lures, by abolishing useless COM
missions and offices, consolidating
departments and bureaus, and
eliminating extravaganza, to &C
complish a saving of not less than
Is per cent IN the cost of federal
government; and we call upon the
Democratic party in the states to
make jealous effort to achieve a
proportionate result
2. Maintenance of the national
credit by a federal budget annually
balanced on the basis of accurate
executive estimates within revenues,
raised by a system of taxation
levied on the principals of ability
to pay.
3. A sound currency to he pre-
served at all hazards; and an inter
national monetary conference called
on the invitation of our govern
ment to consider the rehabilitation
Of silver and related questions.
A 4-A competitive tariff for
revenue, with a fact-f1nding tariff
commission, free from executive
interference; reciprocal tariff agree
ments with other nations, and an
international economic conference
designed to restore international
trade and facilitate exchange.

Repeal Dry Laws

IA. Independence for the Philip
pines, ultimate statehood for Puerto
Rico, the employment of American

and reorganization of the judicial

justice speedy, certain, and at less
cost.
10. Continuous publicity of polit-
ical contributions and expenditures
strengthening of the corrupt prac-
tees act, and severe penalties for
transportation of campaign funds
II. We favor the repeal of the
eighteenth amendment.
To effect such repeal, we demand
that the congress Immediately pro-
pose a constitutional amendment to
truly representative conventions in
the states called to act solely on that
proposal.
We urge the enactment of such
measures by the several states as
actually will promote temperance,
effectively prevent the return of the
saloon, and bring the liquor traffic
into the open, under complete Su-
pervision and control by the states.
We demand that the federal
government effectively exercise its
power to enable the states effective
ly TO protect themselves against i'm
portation of intoxicating liquors in
violation of their laws.
Pending appeal, We favor irnm2-
date modification of the VolStesc
act to legalize the manufacture and

And I can hardly wait to get on

prepared to depart for the sani-

daily report.
The giSt Of Hutton'S testimony
outside of the expected denials that
he ever made fervent love to the
pretty nurse, who values her affec-
tons at 100000, was unrevealed.
Wednesday, George Ayube, a Per-

TWO successive laps, tlguratively
speaking, and was to resume his

Mrs. Lillian Benjamin, one-timt

CHICAGO, June SO.-The
Democratic party plat
form as presented Wednesday
night By the resolutions
committee to the Chicago no.
tional convention follOlCS:
In this time of unprecedented
economic and social distress, the
Democratic party declares its con-
viction that the chief causes of this
condition were the disastrous poll
cies pursued by our government
since the World war, of economic
isolation; fostering the merger OF
competitive businesses into monopo-
lies, and encouraging the indefensi-
BILE expansion and contraction OF
credit for private profit at the ex-
pense of the public.
Those responsible for these poll
cies have abandoned the ideals on
which the war was won, and thrown
away the fruits of victory, thus re-
jecting the greatest opportunity in
history to bring peace, prosperity,
and happiness to our people and to
the world.
They have ruined our foreign
trade, destroyed the values of our
commodities and products, crippled
our banking system, robbed millions
OF our people of their life savings,
and thrown millions more out of
work, produced widespread poverty
and brought the government to a
state of financial distress unprece-
dented in times of peace.
The only hope for improving pres
ent conditions, restoring employ
ment, affording permanent relief to
the people and bringing the nation
back to its former proud position Of
domestic happiness, and of finan-
cial industrial, agricultural, and
commercial leadership in the world,
lies in a drastic change in economic
and governmental policies.
Believing that a party platform
is a covenant with the people to be
kept faithfully by the party when
intrusted with power and that the
people are entitled to know in plain
words the terms of the CONTRACT TO
which they are asked to subscribe.
we hereby declare this to be the
platform of the Democratic party.

NEW PAYMENT
PLAN DRAFTED
FOR GERMANY
Restoration Fund System
New Goal of Powers at
Lausanne.
BY STEWART BROWN
United Press stan Correspondent

LAUSANNE, June 30-"ReStora-
ton payments" by Germany toward
Europe'S economic recovery, instead
of Preparations payments" is the
new goal OF world statesmen, at
tempting to prevent failure of the
Lausanne conference.
Prime Minister Ramsay MacDon-
aid warned the conference that its
work must be completed soon in
preparation tor a world economic
conference in which the United
States would participate.
He believed the conference could
set up machinery for the economic
parley by the first of next week.
The United Press was informed
officially by the German delegation
that Germany had not agreed in
principle to resume reparationS pay
mentS.
But a spokesman emphasized that
the reich is ready to assist in the
economic restoration of Europe.
Permier Edouard Herriot indi-
Gated that the Germans had agreed
to the principle of a lump sum for
future payments.
German correspondents said
plan was imminent by which the
reich would subscribe to a COM
mon restoration fund of which the
bank for international settlement
would be the trustee.
The six inviting powers of the
conference debated the question of
the form of future reparations, if
any, until early today, with no de-
cision reached.
The German position as outlined
by Chancellor Won Papen to Pre-
n1ier Herriot was that future repa-
rations payments were conditional
upon revision of the Versailles
treaty.

Protect Bank DepoSitorS

II. Quicker methods of realizing
on assets for the relief of depositors
of suspended banks and a more
rigid supervision of national banks
for the protection of depoSitors and
the prevention of the use of their
moneys in speculation, to the detri-
ment of local credits.
The severance of affiliated securi-
ties companies and the divorce OF
the investment business from COM
merciaI banks, and further reStric-
ton of federal reserve banks in
permitting the use of federal re-
serve facilities for speculative pur-
poses.
II. The full measure of justice
and generosity for all war veterans
who have suffered disability or dis
ease caused by or resulting from
actual service in time of war, and
for their dependents.
IS. A firm foreign policy, includ-
ing peace with all the world and the
settlement of international disputes
by arbitration; no interference in
the internal affairs of other nations;
the sanctity of treaties, and the
maintenance of good faith and of
good will in financial obligations;
adherence to the world court, with
the pending reservations; the pact
of Paris abolshing war as an in
strument of national policy to be
made effective by provisions for
consultation and conference in case
of threatened violation of treaties;
international agreement for reduction
of ornaments; and cooperation
with nations of the western hemi-
sphere to maintain the spirit of the
Monroe doctrine.
I'VE oppose cancellation of the
debts owing to the United States
by foreign nations.

5. The extravaganza of the farm

made the government a Spectator
in farm products, and the unsound
policy of restricting agricultural
production to the demands of 90
nestle markets.
6. The uSurpation of power by the
state department in assuming to

suit of which billions of dollars in
questionable bonds have been sold
to the public upon the implied ap-
prevail of the federal government.
7. The Hawley-Smoot tariff law
the prohibitive rates of which have
resulted in retaliatory action by
more than forty countries, created
