"Must Provide Work" "Enough work must be provided to keep the people from starving and we shall be fortunate indeed if this Ir reducible cost minimum does not greatly exceed the amount provided In the relief measures which I spon sored. "Before genuine and permanent re lief enn be accomplished, the finan ces of the basic industries of this na tion must be placed on a saner basis thereby removing the spectre of re ceiverships and foreclosures and re storing their buying power and abil ity to employ labor." "International trade must be re established by the restoration of in ternational confidence and credits. Honesty among nations is aa essen tial a virtue aa honesty among indivi duals. "An Individual who borrows and makes no honest effort to pay Is dis honest; tbe same applies to a nation. Talks About Debts "If foreign debts should b can celled the credit of the nations in volped would be destroyed and they ennnot borrow again. "The government of the United States owea it to its citizens to col lect from the debtor nations to the extent of their ability to pay and there should be no flim-flam accept ed as to that -ability to pay. "When the prohibition amendment waa proposed I, as a member of congress, voted against it. I have never believed it sound or workable and it should be repealed. "Cost Can Be Cut" "The coat of government city, county, state and national can and should be reduced not less than one third. "The principal obligation of a gov ernment, established in accordance with the American principles and traditions, ia to proteVt alt of its people in the free enjoyment of the fruits of their labor and the nusuft of happiness. ""the constantly increasing tenden cy toward socialism and communism is the gravest, possible menace. The government should use every means within Its power to prevent their further spresd and they should re ceive no encouragement from any American citizen, high or low." "The democrats of California and' of my native state, Texas, nre send ing delegations to the national con vention in Chicago Instructed to vote for my nomination for the presiden cy. "This has been done without my solicitation. T appreciate the support of my friends and am wilting to serve my country and my party to the limit of my capacity." Regarded aa Keynote Garner's stntement was regarded by his friends aa In the nature of a "keynote" address. Later Representative McDnffle of Alahnma, the democratic whip and staunch supporter of Speaker Gar ner told newspaper men prohibition should be submitted to the people on the straight question of repeal, "I believp there is sentiment enough in this country to justify submission of the straight question of repeal." said McDuffie, long counted among southern dry forces. "I think the speoker's stntement Is honest, straight-forward, manly nnd courageous. In these days and times the American people are not interested in pussyfootera on any question. "No one baa ever learned insofar as I have ascertained how President Hoover stands on prohibition." Walter Newton, one of the presi dent's secretaries was shown a copy of the Garner statement while stand ing in the speaker's lobby. He had no comment. Comment Widespread Garner's declaration for repeal brought widespread comment from other democratic leaders. Senator Sheppnrd (D.. Texas) said that though he disagreed with Gar ner on prohibition, he would con tinue to support hfm for the presi dency. The co-author of the ISth amendment said: "I do not agree with Speaker Gar ner on repeal, but this does not af fect my support of him for the pres idency. I regard him ss sound on all other vital questions." Other comments follow: Senator Wagner fD.. N. T.) : 'That showa the drift. T hope the con vention wilt recommend repeal. A declaration that a repent amendment should be submitted would, however, be free from ambiguities and could be understood by the people." Senator PIttman (D., Nev.): I think he's made a very clear expres sion of Ms views, past and future. It Is evidence that it will have a ponnlar majority at the convention. Senator Copeland fD.. N. T.: 'That's good. I'm glad to hear it. Tt is very significant that a man who baa occupied the position be has should express himself as he has. There will be a bitter contest over the plsnk and Garner's declar ation plus the liberal stand of Mc Adoo makes it probable that the Garner delegates will vote for a lib eral plenk." Repeal Story Predicted ' Senator Fess R.. Ohio): "t have no doubt the convention will come out for repeal." Senator Blaine fR.. Wls.: Thev turn wet very quickly, don't they?" Representative Howard fD.. Nb.) one-timn seereterv to William Jenr nings Brvan: 'The speaker's state ment will make a repeal plank in the plntform." Rrnresentntive' Cullen. lender of the Tn mmnny delega Hon : "That Is irrent language. There Is no evasion there. Tt Is the kind of a stntement the people expect and demand from every man In public life." , Representative Bankhead fP.. Ala.) another house leader, said: "Tt Is a good statement. All of it Is In accord with rood. sond demo cratic doctrine. Any democrat can sunnort It." Representative Ralney. the demo cratlc leader: "T voted In the home to resubmit the Ifirh amendment, and T think the time has come to r umit it to the people unqualifiedly."

The Rooaeveltians are nutting ev ery energy into a last minute drive to nominate the New York governor on the first ballot. They are count inrr on 00 of New Tork'a 04 votes and about 20 or 25 from Illinois to turn the trick, t Tomorrow cornea the master of the 102ft campaign. Former Govern or Smith, and of his strategy even the confident Roosevelt forces are wary. Late today or early In the morn ing comes Mr. Me Adoo "whose battle of more than 100 ballots with Smith In 1024 established him, too, as one to be reckoned with In convention contests. He is for Bpeaker Garner, whom he helped to defeat Roosevelt in California. So, democratic political leader are running their eyea at this strange al liance of Smith and McAdoo and watching Intently for the showdown between these enemies of old and their new rival. That showdown is expected before the balloting begins but New York announcement will not necessarily bring it. Tt ia common gossip In the rapidly filling corridors aboti t convention headquarter at the Congress hotel that the anti-Roosevelt strategy is to give the governor his maximum strength on the first ballot. Tt is figured that cutting him down after the first ballot will be destructive. Challenge Accepted The Roosevelt men have accepted that challenge and James A. Farley, spokesman here for the governor, snys he will go over the top on the first ballot. Meanwhile, speculation over abo lition of the two-thirds rule persists as the RooBevelt clan nears fhe ma orlty mark in the number pledged, instructed and claimed delegates. The announcement in the senate vesterday by Borah, of Idaho, that he would not support President Hoover for re-election stirred demo cratic leaders here but little faith was placed In discussion that the powerful oratory ' of the Idaboan might be turned to democratic use in 1032. On the contra rv. It evoked specu dation over a third party und here again the Rooseveltians quickly leaped Into the situation to reassert that the best way to avoid a third party split was to nominate their man. A lot of fun Is ahead In the di vided and aroused democratic fold where the prospects of victory this year, since Hornh spoke, are re garded brighter than ever.
