Phila. REPUBLICANS HOPE | “Out-State™ Smith May Ccunterast St. Louis Wet Vote. (Continued from Tirst Paz=) Gov. Smith is oppnsed on account of | his membarship in th Catholic Church. Senator Hawes, who is th» Democratic campaign manager for Missouri and contiguous States, said to me: “If Gov. Smith were a Protestant, he would bs | | elected President ses in the east.” d not mean to imply that Gov. Smith would not yét be clected Presi- dent, but merely that it would be far ier for him to earry the country. He ! meant to imply that the real opposition {to the governor in Missouri is found ‘ in the religious issue. The Republican: while admitting thet the religious iss \l: figuring in the eampaign. put more | emphasis on the wet issue. saying that 10 WIN MISSOURI Opposition to! just as surely as the | THE EVENING | ponrdmaster announces. are mongrel terricss. —Star Staff Photo. the dry Democrats will not stand for ; Smith ‘because of his wetness and be- cause he is a Tammany man., | Senator Hawes has put out a pam- phiet entitled “Election of Smith Would End Religious Intolerance,” in which | he aftacks vigorously the “forces of re- | tigious intolerance.” scores ths Ku | Klux Klan. and asks where th> Klan is getting the money to spread its lit- erature in this State. most of it sent out anonymously. His implication is that the money comes from Republican sources. He claims that millions of | copies of the fake Knights of Columbns {oath have been sent broadcast over the | country. and many of them into Mis- | souri. He sees a reaction against re- ligious intolerance among tho D:‘mn- crats who were opposed to Smith after | his nomination was made in Houston 2nd insisis that conditions are bottering for the Democrats in the State |.§h- along. The Republicens, on the other hand. declare that the anti-Smith sen- timent is growing stronger. Point to Hawe} Vote, The Democrats say that if Senator Hawes conld come down to St. Louis two years ago with a 44,000 lead, when he was running as wringing wet and at- | tacking the Klan, then surely Gov. Smith may be expected to run well in out-State. But they discount in such a claim the religious issue, which was not. then involved, since Senaior Hawes is a Protestant,. i One prominent figure, whose vivid | personality has been injected into most of the recent campaigns in this State, ' is temporarily out of the picture. Sena- | tor “Jim” Reed is giving all his time | now to a Jaw case in which he is coun- sel, involving the Standard Oil Co. and millions of doll The Democrats however, that the last week ol dzys of the campaign Senator Reed | will take the stump for Smith and at- tack again his old enemy, Herbert Hoo- | ver. whom he has lambasted from one {end of the State to the other for years. Senator Reed took a beating, however, in the Democratic primary a couple of | months ago. when his candidate for the Senate nomination, Collett, was defeat- 1ed by Charles M. Hay of St. Louis, a | militant dry, a Wilson Democrat and a deadly enemy of Senator Reed. Reed lost some of his grip on the wet too, when he {the drv anti-Smith elements in the Houston convention. But. the Demo- crats say they are counting on his vit- rolic speaking in the closing davs of the campaign. There have been insinua- tions that Reed is “sore” and “sulking” in his tent. but these are denied em- | phatically by the Democratic leaders. The great interest in the campaign which has bsen manifested in St. Louis is found in all parts of the State. Kan- sas City, like this city. has had a big- ger registration of prospective voters | than ever before. The total registered exceeds 203.000, which is 32,0000 more than ever registered in Kansas City's history. And. as in St. Louis. much of thisad- diticnal registration is due to the wos en's coming out for the first time. Th: | women there have’turned out in un- precedented numbers in the home-own- The Republicans are tak- ing the large registration of the women 1S an encouraging sign. But, then, so , are_the Democrats. Kansas City has been a Democratic stronghold in the past. but four vears ago it gave Coolidge a considerable lead | | aver Devis, although in the rest of | Jackson County Davis ran slightly | ahead of Coolidge. Two years ago, | however. Kansas City returned-to its Democratic allegiance and gave Sena- tor Hawes a lead of 14,500 votes over his Republican opponent. Williams. Much was made of the farm issue against Hoover before and during the Kansas City convention. Lowden had A majority of the Missouri delegation to the Republican national convention, | largely on the farm issue. But although « campaign speakers are discussing the farm issue, it is not cutting the figure in Missouri now that it did. Prohibition | and religion have shoved it into the background. William Hirth, head of the Missouri Farm Federation. is doing his best to | keep if alive, with attacks upon Hoover and the Republican administration and their opposition to the McNary-Haugen bill. But it is retaliated that Mr. Hirth is a Democrat. The same thing. by the way, is brought up by the Re- | publicans ‘when they talk of th> in- dorsement given in St. Louis to Gov. | Smith’s candidacy by August A. Busch. 7; | They point out that Mr. Busch at one | time ran for the city council as a Dem- | ocrat. | Hay Gooad Campaigner. | - The Democrats figure that they did a wise thing volitically when they nomi- nated for the Senate Charles M. Hay, | an ardent dry and long a friend of the Anti-Saloon League. Mr. Hay is a { great campaigner. He is going up and down the State urging the election of Gov. Smith and attacking the Repub- | licans. At the same time he says that he does not agree with Gov. Smith in his stand on prohibition and that he will oppose any efforts the governor may make to change the dry laws if Smith | becomes President. The _leaders are | couning on Hay to rally many of the | eratic drys to Smith in the end. Gov. Smith is coming to Missouri: to visit In St. Louis and to speak in Sedalia. The Republicans are joshing their Democratic friends because their candidate i not to speak in St. Louis. 1f he spoke here and discussed prohi- bition. as the wets in the city would like him to do, the Republicans say he | would be In danger of losing more Democratic votes in the out-State, | which is dry. If he spoke here and | was not as wet as the German-Amer- icans desire, he might las> som> of their votes. The Democrats pooh-pooh such suggestions. At one time the Democrats planned | !to have a big, popular dinner at a dollar a plate, in St. Louis for Gov | Smith, but when they heard that the { governor positively would not speak | here they gave it up. However, the | Democrats are setting great siore by the coming ofs their candidaie. They believe that he will put punch into the | eampaign, even more than now exists, | and will arouse a lat of enthusiasm. Privately somes of the Democrats are | admitting they have a lot of trouble out in the State. But they do not be- lieve that the out-State’ will give Hoover more than 25000 as & maxi- Richmond 2nd | mum lead over Smith, and they ins they will more than wipe that lead oui in St. Louis, where thsy are counting on | @ 30,000 or 40,000 lead for Smith.

Green .of New York, general | traffic_agent of the Clyde Line, said | that the Clyde was not entirely in ac- cord with other lines serving the South Atlantic ports in asking for additional territory in which rates would be on a | parity with those from Gulf ports. Mr. Green pointed out that the South At- lantic route. by virtue of speedier serv- ice. would obtain all business on which | ! rate parity exists. Green asked for | rates both from fhe Gulf and South | Atlantic ports. which would permit | manufacturers of the Eastern scaboard | to compete with those of the Middle | West. His_company also controls the Mal- lory Line, which gives a Culf service | through Galveston. “The Gulf route and Atlantic route should be divorced entirely if necessary,” he said. i William Chandler, representing the Merchants' Association of New York, was considerebly . exercised over. the rail privileges which he said the Inter- state Commerce Commission order af- forded manufacturers of the Middle West. over those of New York. He ap- pealed to Interstate Commerce Com- mission Examiner Charles M. Bardwell and W. V. Hardie, director of the Bu- reau of Traffic of the commission, to in- teroret zeveral orders. S M.
