1TEDFOTCD HAIL TRIBU1TE. MEDFORD. OREGON, THCTlSDlVr, OCTOBER 20, 1932
KELLY AND IFF
A rousing meeting of th loot
Democrticy waa held ftt tn oounty
courthouse auditorium laaf night,
when more than 100 Democrats gath
ered for the meeting of the Young
Democratic club, featuring addreaeea
by Colonel E. E. Kelly and Attorney
Porter J. Nff, who are stumping the
county for promotion of the success
of the Roosevelt-Oar ner ticket.
Edward C. Kelly, candidate for th
, Oregon legislature from thle district,
also addressed the audience, listing
his qualifications for the position and
emphasizing the growth of bureau
oracles In the United States and the
dangers Involved.
Candidates for county offices cm
the Democratic ticket were also seat
ed on the platform and were Intro
duood to the audience by Moore Hanv
tlon. president of the Young Demo
cratic club, who presided.
Colonel Kelly, In hla address, rt
Tlewed the success of the 1916 cam
paign of the Democratic party, for
which he stumped the county with
Attorney Neff, and assured the crowd
that ho expects Roosevelt to go Into
office with a greater majority than
waa awarded Woodrow Wilson. Col
onel Sully reviewed the bonus army
Incident, stating that he was not in
favor of payment of the cash bonus,
but that he deplored the unfortun
ate treatment given the soldiers Jn
the capital city. .
He spent much time on the pro
hibition question as an economic is
sue, listing the tremendous costs of
attempted enforcement of the law
and the increase in deaths from alco
holism each year. "The tremendous
sums going into the coffers of the
bootleggers should be returning to
the people. We have discarded a
source of revenue," Colonel Kelly de
clared, "which all other civilised na
tions of the world are taking advan
tage of. The federal courts, who for
merly devoted their time to moment
ous questions, are now trying to de
cide who owns a pint of moonshine
whiskey."
MRepoal of the eighteenth amend
ment, however, " Colonel Kelly add
ed, "is not an Issue In this cam
paign. Both parties admit the fail
ure of the amendment predicted by
Woodrow Wilson when he opposed Its
pasaage."
Costs of the upkeep of the White
House during the administration of
Woodrow Wilson, at war prices, were
compared with the costs of President
HooveT'a upkeep of the presidential
dwelling, by Colonel Kelly, who listed
the recent costs as five times the
total of Wilson's administration.
Attorney Neff, in advancing the
campaign of Governor Roosevelt,
dealt almost exclusively with the
financial problem, laying the cause o
depression at "big business" door.
81 not the dose of the World war, he
pointed out, big business has been
In control In the United States. Not
one humanitarian measure has been
advanced or passed by the adminis
tration. The cabinet is filled with
big business men, he added, describ
ing the present period as outstand
ing In world history for Its concen
tration of wealth and the control of
government by big business men
This excessive accumulation of capi
tal, permitted and encouraged under
the Republican administration, he
held responsible for the recent 'de
pression, and closed hla address with
a plea to the people to vote for Gov
ernor Roosevelt, who has a thought
"for the ordinary man."
Sheriff Ralph Jennings was then
called upon by the club president to
contribute a few words to the Demo
cratic cause. He stated that the
ground had been so completely cov
ered by Kelly and Neff that he oould
mink of nothing to add except hla
positive agreement.
Mr. Bryan, a new resident in Med-
ford. attending, with his daughter,
Mary Virginia, added a sparkling
Democratic story from Will Rogers'
store to the meeting.
James Stevens, the Democrats '-favorite
and official soloist, was unable
to be present, because of a severs
old, but sent greetings and prom
ises to attend the next meeting.
An optimistic looking orange don
key contributed by Mrs. Kelly, ap
peared on the platform as mascot of
the party. He will visit Jacksonville
with Kelly and Neff , tonight.

with administration members over
th calling ot troop, to trie the

necessary to restore order, following
claahea between veteran and police.
Hla resignation, however, grew out
of official opposition to change tn

Criticised beoaua of the manner
In which he handled th bonua army,

BORAH PLEADS FOR
E STATE TALK
flHEUXT. Ida.. Oct. 30. OEfV-WHh
an Impassioned appeal for Interna
tional reduction of armaments and
relief of the farmer debt burden. Sen
ator William E. Borah, In an address
to 1500 people at a potato day cele
bratlon here today, continued his
campaign -which he said la la behalf
of neither party.
He warned hla audience, which
packed the Latter Day Saints church
stake tabernacle, that polloles he ad
vocated were found In the platform
of neither party and that he assum
ed full responsibility for them.
Picturing the world situation In
which 76 per cent of the gold la held
by the United States and France, he
said other nations were powerless to
buy American goods because of this
situation and because of the demon
etization of sllvei. which he termed
the "primary money of over half the
world.
He warned that until the farmer la
relieved of his present burden of In
debtedness, the country is powerless,
to escape the depression, and said
some acts of farm loan banks "would
make Shylock look like a gentle-
ma n."
In an emphatic conclusion, He de
clared: "We are In too large a meas
ure, in my Judgment, victims of the
crime which began In 1914. '
He ended his speech of a little over
an hour with an appeal for a time
when the "human race gets back to
a place where It can devote brain
and brawn for the benefit of man
kind, and not for the murder of
fellowmen.

MANCHESTER, Eng., Oct. 20.
(AP) United States Ambassador An
drew Mellon gave his complete en
dorsement to the record of the Hoo
ver administration today In an ad
dress before the English-speaking
union.
He endorsed the measures .taken
by the administration to meet the
economlp crisis; he denied that the
American tariff has had the adverse
effect on trade with whlca it some
times has been credited, and he ex
pressed regret that the American
election Is not to be decided on the
merits of important policy, "but
rather on the vague and general Is
sue of discontent with existing con
ditions." "There Is a disposition on the part
of many people which is not un
natural perhaps, however unfair It
may be. to blame the president and
bUadminlst ration for the calamities
which have overtaken America and
the .world," he said.
"It would be Just as unreasonable
to blame the governor of Massachu
setts for the low prices of textiles,
or the governor of Minnesota for
world conditions which have resulted
In a low price for wheat.
"In the. case of President Hoover,
It la particularly unfair, for no one
has worked harder and, X think,
more , intelligently and with more
courage and vision than has the
president both tn his efforts to avoid
impending calamities and to mini
mize their effects when they came."
Mr. Me) Ion's support or President
Hoover echoed throughout the speech.
"In the final analysis," he said,
the real question le one of leader
ship rather than of Issues. It Is
a solemn decision."

ItAIU ADV.)
Briggs Explains Attitude Toward
Conduct District Attorney's Office
TO THE PEOPLE OP JACKSON COUNTY:
As the Republican nominee for the office of District
Attorney of Jackson County, I believe the people are
entitled to know my attitude toward the conduct of that
office irf other words, what my platform is. Briefly, I
would state same as follows:
1. That every citizen of Jackson County coming in
contact with my office will receive a square deal, with the
idea in mind that the District Attorney's office is for the
purpose, not only of prosecuting and bringing to justice
the wrong-doer, but of protecting the innocent.
2. I believe in the observance of the law safeguarding
the Issuance of search warrants, and that every citizen
is entitled to bis constitutional rights regarding search
and seizure. I do not believe in the issuance of so-called
"blanket" search warrants, and shall approve only the
issuance of search warrants based upon proper affidavits
showing "probable cause".
3. I pledge myself to give efficient and prompt atten
tion to the duties required of the District Attorney under
the law.
4. I believe information can be obtained by properly
deputized officers, operating under the direction of the
Sheriff and state police. You cannot have a high type of
enforcement without a high type of men engaged In such
work.
B. I agree to conduct the office with as much economy
as Is consistent with efficiency.
t, I believe in the enforcement and observance of the
law. I believe that law was intended to meet 'the ends
of Justice, and it follows therefrom that reason, and a
consideration of surrounding circumstances, must be in
termingled with its enforcement.
In stating the above pledges and beliefs, I am not to
be construed, directly or indirectly, as making inference
against my Democratic opponent; I am simply stating
what I, personally, stand for. I am conducting my cam
paign on my own beliefs and merits, and criticism of an
opponent will not enhance my own qualifications.
Taid. Adv. WM. M, BRIGGS.
! not because Hoover I so important,
i but because Roosevelt and th Demo
: crata are In th nature of things un
certain and business slumps under
uncertainty.
In these times of stress and trial
which will be th better executive?
Answer this, no matter how you
hate Hoover. Wouldn't you rather
have a man in there who would not
be busy fighting for his aecond term?
Why not elect a man who wouldn't
have to give In to this crowd or bat
tle and barter with that crowd ta
get a renomlnatlon or a re-electlont
Isn't it common sense to gtv this
man a second term and a aecond
chance where he will be free? Got.
Roosevelt will be hog-tied by his
party's interests.
Think over these things. Forget
your grouch, take a deep breath and
summon your common sense. Don't
be so mad that you will bit off your
own no,e to spite your face. William.
