TUMULFYPREDT DEFEA F . 0.P Declares “Resurrection of Will Come Next Tuesday. Great Idea. of Peace” “In 1920 we saw the crucifixion of & great idea of peace and next Tues- day we shall witness the resurrec- tion,” declared Joseph P. Tumulty last evening before the final campaign meeting of the McDonald-Washing- ton-Blackburn Democratic club at 2315 Massachusetts avenue. Special guests were the New York State So- ciety and Maryland State Society. Referring to the closing vears of Woodrow Wilson's life, Mr. Tumulty said: “The Republican party, which £howed no chivalry in those days to- ‘ward our stricken leader, now cries in this campaign, ‘Do not treat us Tough.' " John Ritchie, jr., cousin of the Maryland governor, also a guest anc speaker, said: “With one exception, John W. Davis is the ablest man who has been of- fered for the presidency since my memory runs. That one exception, Woodrow Wilson. was a man with Whom John Davis worked shoulder to shoulder. i “I believe Coglidge is unswervingly honest,” he said, “but the proper basis 1o estimate his servide is to point to his record. There is not a single is- sue on which he and his Congress have been in accord. What benefit is his administration to the country if he cannot lead Congress?" . Mrs. Willlam Atherton Du Puy eaid: “The silent man in the White House 1s going to lose the silent vote when the people o to the polls Tuesday and vote for Davis. This silent vote includes the farmers, who are turn- ing toward him for leadership, and those represented in the great swing of labor, which belongs in the Demo- cratic party Carter B. Keene praised the work for the party that had been done by Mrs. Moran, and hailed as significant the turning of New York labor to the Democratic party. “If these pre- liminary polls are accurate” he asked, “why is it necessary to raise $4,000,000 and today to send out a call for more money for the Repub- licans?” Mrs. Blair Banister, sister of Sena- tor Glass, recited an original political poem. She thanked Mrs. Moran and her club for the financial and inspira- tional aid it had rendered the Demo- cratic party. . Other speakers were Joseph V. Mor- , historian of the Marylard Sta and D. A.
