McNutt, democratic gov ernor of Indiana, who said the "democratic platform does not re treat. It does not make reckless promises;" Burton L. French, re publican and Miami university professor, who said "The republi can party regards the constitu tion as the great bulwark of .American liberties; but it recog nizes change," and N o r m a n Thomas, candidate for president, socialist, who decried "A world of poverty in the midst of poten tial abundance." Earlier in the day. the adop tion of most of the report of the resolutions committee placed the N.E.A. on record opposing war, compulsory military training and the" "danger to the fundamental principles of democracy" in aca demic restrictions.

Governor McNutt told the thou sands of delegates that the demo cratic platform "says what it means; what is promised already Is in the process of accomplish ment . ." He described the party as "the liberal party which fights for human rights above property rights." Maintain Democracy, Itepubl leans Plea French called the republican platform "clear, definite" and con cise" and scored those "who openly or covertly. . . favor the overthrow of true democracy." Thomas, in declaring "you gen tlemen with your reforms. , . hav en't diagnosed the disease proper ly," said: "The primary trouble is not with the old deal or new, more money or less. It! is the capitalis tic nationalist sysitem with its out worn loyalties and Institutions. . . Profit depends upon exploitation of workers. . .-It depends upon relative scarcity."
