Senator Goldsborbugh! (Rv Md.) presented Edwin G Baetjer, promin ent Baltimore attorney, who intro duced Mr. Hoover.' In. a brief ad dress. Boetjer hit out at Roosevelt's "fprgotten man" phrase. ' Speaklug briefly ln the first stop of his dash along th'e seaboard to New York, the president said the Democratic party proposed o reduce the tariff, not only "generally, but it proposes to negotiate- reciprocal tariffs which can mean but one tho tariffs in favor of the import thing, and that is to negotiate away1 of some variety of goods." . Asserting Maryland in the past had' supported : protective tariffs, Mr. Hoover, went on: "There has never been an hour when it was more necessary that Maryland maintain that vigilant at titude as to the tariff as the one. which now threatens you."- . He declared Speaker Garner, Demo cratic vice presidential nominee, had gathered a measure to issue $2,300, 000,000 In greenback currency and "tno Democratic candidate or any speaker In this campaign has not seen lit to disavow it' - v, ' Tho Democratic party, Mr1.

As Baetjer mentioned Mr. Hoover, cries of "our next president" came from somie of those ln the crowd. Tho president spoke from a flag draped platform set up in front of the station, with loud speakers carrying his words to the crowd. ' Beforo beginning his prepared speech, the president said he regarded tho reception as "evidence of the way, you will vote on Nov. 8. Crowd Responds "You are right," several ln the crowd shouted. The chief executive said. Maryland had always stood for a protective tariff and recalled tljrt the first piece of legislation signed by Presi dent Washington was a protective tariff measure passed In response to a petition from Maryland.
