Republican Record Complete. Failure, Cordell Hull Declares Democratic Chairman Ouilines Issues| for 1924 to Get Votes of Farmers, Labor and Business. Chairman Cordell Hull of the demo- oratic national committee, in a state- ment of the campaign issues of 1924, prepared for The Star, lay§ emphasis on “the failure of the Harding ad- ministration.” ‘Phe tariff, the high cost of living and the republican administration during the last three years will be issues at the polls next year, he say He charges the administration with lack of sympathy toward labor, with fallure to stabilize business. No direct mention of the league of nations is made by Mr. Hull, nor does he suggest that prohibition will be among the issues. Adams Is Silent. An effort was made to obtain from Chairman John Adams of the repub- loan national committee a statement +f \he issues of the coming campaign »13w The republican leader declined #n. the ground that such a statement %ould be premature at this time. * Idr. Hull's statement follows: Any summary of the prospective !ssues of 1924 must begin with the issues ralsed by the failure of the Marding administration to keep its Pre-election promises and its fail- ure to meet the reasonable expecta- tions of the people, except a small but powerful minority constituting the special privilege class. “The rank and file of the American Yoters have been accustomed to judge f:aional administrations by results #s they come home to the voter. The fust inquiry that will arise in the 1ainds of the voter next year will be, Why should we desire another four ears of Harding and alled Hard- ag normaley” in the light of recent experience? Why should a political party that promised more, and after being Intrusted with power, per- fermed less than any other party in our history, recelve an indorsement in 19247 Why should a party whose dominant leaders pledged themselves to exercise {nitiative. vision, on- siructive ability and aggressive leud- crship, but instead has given the country just the opposite, have any particular claim upon the favor of the voters next year? Case of Farmer. “Why should American farmers de- sire another four vears of Harding normalcy’ in the iight of the fact that they are thirty worse off today than on the day Fresident Harding was elected, while their future appears ominous and al- most hopele Why should they favor a continuance of the Harding high tariff policy which, after a thorough test, has convinced the fa mer that it means sky-high prices for all he must buy and at the same time {s powerless to raise the price of the farmer's products, or even to prevent them from going lower, as In the case of wheat,.meat and several other staple products? Why should they desire to continue in federal power a party which h inflicted -upon them abnormaily high freight rates, a party whose repub- lican legislatures during the past eight years have piled up great mountains of new taxes and expend- itures in & large majority of the states, counties and municipalitles, a parts’ which has signally failed to promote the development of sound, cciprocal foreign market conditions to permit the satisfactory sale of the farm surplus, and a party which only made a’gesture at giving the farm- ers relief from packer price manipu lation?

American farmers now | realize from practical experience that | there would be a different story to tell from every standpoint had the democratic forelgn policies, which included, practical co-operation, not ;only to ‘prevent future wars but to { maintain a steady and even flow of | commerce back and forth between this and other countries, been put into effect in substance and essence. The farmers, from disastrous ex- perience, can now behold the incal- culable ‘and irreparable losses that have befallen America and the world as a result of the course of dominant republican leaders in playing vicious, selfish politics with our foreign af- fairs during 1919 and 1920, with the result that the present administration thus far has been wholly unable to formulate any definite or comprehen- {sive program with respect to either domestic or foreign affairs. Argument for Labor. i “Why should the American laborer be enamored of the Harding adminis- I tration in the light of the fact that the high cost of living. created chiefly 1 by the monstrous Fordney-McCumber | high tariff, prevents labor, or any | other class of persons, except the favored special interests, from laying by any savings; and of the fact that the administration is hopelessly domi- nated by this group of special privi- lege, which is most unfriendly to the cause “of labor, and most selfish in £obbling up for themselves every spe- cial benefit the government is able to bestow: and of the fact that whenever | there 1s a conflict between the rights, interests and welfare of labor and those of special privilege, the present administration invariably sldes with | the latter, “Why should the average business man feel any friendship or gratitude | toward the Harding administration in the light of his condition after two| and one-half vears of ‘“normalcy.” | compared, for example, with the years; 1919 and 1920 under democratic Tule; when his business Is confronted with | hopeless uncertainty as to the future and e is utterly unable to plan ahead on account of the operation of { wholly unsound domestic and foreign {economic policies to the extent that |the present administration has any economic policies; and when he knows |that under wise and efficient federal | administration the country should be ! blessed with sound, stable, perma-| nent business conditions? “Why should those American pro- ducers and manufacturers, subject to no competitive imports and deriving no benefits from the existing high tariff, desire to perpetuate for an- other four years an administration whose every cconomic policy {s seri- ously handicapping the sound ‘devel opment of our international com- {merce, on which afone their own busi- ness expansion and prosperity in the | tuture depend? Cause of Depression. “Each of these vast group of voters now know that the Harding administra- tion has constituted the greatest stumb- ling block to the business and economic readjustment of America and the world, and ot only delayed sound business and { economic recovery, but is responsible for a long and unprecedented business depression. “The American people are now anxious to restore to power a party with leadership that will lead and with a program that will embrace practical in- ternational ce-operation, not only to prevent war but greatly to promote our own economic and social welfare. a pro- jgram that will embrace a vigorous policy of rigid enconomy, federal, state, county and municipa and correspond- ing equitable tax reduction: a program embracing. in short. ail such other sub- jects as lower freigt rates, better farm co-operation in transportation and dis- tribution, local self government, the substitution of honest for dishonest eivil service, consolidation and co-ordination jof all transportation facilities, a work- {able immigration law, the divorce of the groups of special privilege now prey- ing on the people from the government, modernized and humane methods for the maintenance of just and peaceful | relations - between capital and labor. policies that will prevent or settie strikes such as the recent railroad and coal strikes, honesty in public and polit- ical affairs instead of corruption and political immorality, a comprehensive domestic and foreign policy instead of the very partial patehwork of the pres- ent administration—these are some of | the issues which will claim the atten- tion of the voters and candidates next yea FRANK H.

Simpson of 1003 8th street southeast, establishing a new record for the prohibition en- forcement officers. Simpson's place was-raided Saturday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock on a search warrant, after an purchased whisky from Simpson. A quantity of whisky was taken at that time. Simpson was charged with sell- ing and possessjon of whisky in viola- tion of the national prohibition Ia and released on a §1,500 bond. After his release, Detectives C. C. Wise and Officers Als, Maloney, Hill- drup and Revenue Agent Rose heard that Simpson had remarked that “lightning never strikes twice In the same place,” meaning he would not be raided again soon. Simpson is alleged to have returned to his place and, with the lightning maxim in mind, begun the sale of whisky again. An’ agent of the government made a second purchase, it _is alleged, another search warrant was sworn out and at midnight of the same day the enforcement - officers arrested Simpson the second time. He put up another $1,500 for his release. He is to be arraigned in the United States branch of Police Court Wednesda; Abe Martin Says: him’'on an errand. SAFETY-PIN PRICK FATAL.

Fielding, a government ac- countant, under cross examination by Nash Ro¢kwood, of counsel for the Morses, declared today the hooks of the United States Transport Company. a Morse corporation, do not show that the company ever received one dollar from the United States Ship- ping Board Emergency Fleet Cor- poration under the agreement by i to operate the Morse-built vessels a agent of the Fleet Corporation. Flelding, regarded as one of the star - witnesses for the prosecution, was subjected to a searchin cross- examination when the Morse conspir- acy trial was resumed today before Justice Stafford and a jury in Crim- inal Division 1. Failed to Take Accounting. Mr. Flelding admitted that the statement which he prepared from the books of the transport company showing receipts and expenses while the company was acting as agent of the Shipping Board did not take int6 account any sums due the company by the government. The statement purported to show that the company had failed to ccount for $406,000 of receipts from the operation’ of the five boats built at the Groton works The witness explained that he had not taken into account sums due the company under the operating agree- ment, because that agreement pro- vided for, monthly payments by the Shipping "Board on vouchers to be presented by the company. The books of the company do not show, he said, that the company ever received “one dollar” from the Shipping Board un- der the agreement. He added that so far as he knew, the company never had submitted any vouchers covering amounts due fit. Theory of Bookkeeping. Challenging Fielding's interpreta- tion of the books, Attorney Rockwood, for the defense, led the witness through a maze of bookkeeping theory under which Fielding stated that the books showed $140,000 of receipts in excess of expenditures instead of $406,000. . The witness did not accept this theory as correct, however. Before his cross-examination be- gan Fielding made a number of cor- | rections in his originul statement as to receipts and disbursements, plac ing_the former at $2,185.147 instead of $2,888,322. He testified, however, that these corregtions did not change the net result ax originally given The prosecution entered on its tenth week today BELGIAN PREMIER HOPES TO END CABINET DISPUTE Theunis Offers to Concede on Is- sues Which Caused Resig- nation of Ministers.
