- SMITH COMPLETES JOURNEY IN WEST Turns East After Tremen- dous Chicago Welcome; Hits Administration Record. (Continued from First Page.) in the hollow of his hand. They smiled and laughed with him. And when he gave his views on prohibition, Chicago’s thirsty multitude went wild with en- thusiasm. At one point he pledged imself to rigid enforcement of the dry laws if he were elected, and the en- thusiasts roared just as though they ‘would be content never to taste another drop of beer or whisky. 'Family Is Cheered. Before Gov. Smith entered the hall, ‘Mrs. Smith, wearing a gray costume and hat and a gray fur, was escorted to the platform, and after her followed her daughters, Mrs. John H. Warner and Mrs. Francis J. Quillinan, and Al They too were cheered by the crowd. When the meeting was over, more thousands gathered on the lake front before the Congress Hotel, and there at 10 o'clock a fireworks display was staged. The detonation of aerial bombs shook the city for 30 minutes, single explosions and then volleys of them, bringing to a close the Chicago welcome to Gov. Smith. Again and again in his address the ‘avemor reverted to the pledge of the publican platform that the record of the present administration is a guar- antee of what may be expected of the mext. The crowd caught his meaning ‘When he read his text the first time, and roared its mirth. He added a phrase—"if we win”"—to the text of the iRepublican platform each time he ¥uoted thereafter. ‘While Gov. Smith’s address last night dwas the high point of his campaigning Misit to this city, it was not the most picturesque. Starting at noon yesterday, he headed « an automobile parade for two score miles through Chicago and Evanston. It was a case of “North Side, South Side, all around the town.” Not since the armistice was signed in 1918, old residents say, has there been anything like the scenes in Chicago's famous Joop district when the governor’s party “passed through streets lined with sky- scrapers. From high windows floated down scraps of paper, ticker tapes and confetti until it looked as though Chi- cago was in the grip of an early bliz- zard. Hundreds of thousands of people lined the sidewalks and leaned from ‘windows. Thousands of them cheered the governor as he tipped his brown ggb{ to them, with a genial smile on ace. Visits Three Universities. On this automobile trip he visited three universities and saw and was seen by men, women and children in practically every part of the city. The three universities were Methodist North- western, Catholic Loyola and Baptist Chicago. Swinging back from the South Side, he passed through Chicago’s “black belt,” where some 200,000 colored people live. At Northwestern University a stop ‘Was made and the students there greeted the governor with a cheer all their own. at v;:'? as A‘?lh;:: “Hello, Al: hello, Al; hello, Al; Al $Smith, hello.” E Gov. Smith chatted with President ‘Walter Dill Scott of the university, who greeted the governor in cap and gown and with Melvin Traylor, trustee, a sup- “porter of Smith. Mrs. Smith accom- jpanied the governor on his trip. One of Jthe co-eds wanted to know what Mrs. Smith thought of Northwestern girls. ——— SPECIAL NOTICES. apples.

C. held onNovember 3, 1028 i 18 2 ‘conf | Will Rogers NEW YORK.—It was a dark, rainy, cloudy day on the New York end of the air mail. No planes through in two days. I wanted to get home to my family in California, I in- sisted on going. It wasn't brav- ery; it was a dumb ignorance and an unlimited confidence in all air mail pilots. “We will try to get through, if you insist,” and we got through, clear to Cleve- land. Yesterday he didn't get through. Ikinder feel like his skill saved my life. So, “Hoppie” old boy, here’s hop- ing you are pilot- ing the best cloud there is up there, and you don't have to worry about low ceiling, engine missing, head winds, or even whethet the old rip cord will pull in case. "lVery beautiful,” was Mrs. Smith's reply. Mrs. Smith was herself the guest of honor and observed of all observers at a reception given in Steven’s Hotel yes- terday afternoon. Some 6,000 women, shouting and singing, crowded into the room, and in their attempt to greet Mrs. Smith and shake her by the hand, she was crowded this way and that, and finally she and her "daughters, Mrs. Quillinan and Mrs. Warner, were spirited away from the reception through a rear door by detectives. During his stay here Gov. Smith saw and talked with all the leading Demo- crats of Chicago and Tlinois. They gave him to understand that he was strong, particularly in Cook County, and that he was gaining daily. How many of the people who saw and welcomed Gov. §mith will vote for him is a ques- tion. Thousands wanted to see the man who has been Governor of New York for almost a decade and who has made the brown derby famous. Taxi Driver Indignant. ‘Typical of the interest shown in the governor by the people was an escapade of a telephone switchboard operator at one of Chicago’s big hotels. “I.saw your boy friend,” said she to one of the bellhops after Gov. Smith had gone on his swing around the city, “and I shook hands with him. He's swell. He's going to get my vote sure.” “That was when you were away from the board for 20 minutes and nobody could get a number,” said the bellhop. “Yes,” answered the switchboard oo- erator, “I guess I'll get called for thar, but,” she added with a reminiscent smile, “it was worth it.” A taxi driver was indignant last night because, he said, the newspapers had underestimated the crowd which saw the governor in his tour through the Loo) P. “Newspapers,” he said, “is all against Al, but all the poor people are going to vote for him.” He insisted there had never before been so large a crowd anywhere as the crowd which turned out to welcome the governor. But another taxi driver assigned to drive one of the cars of the official Smith party took a different slant. “I'm going to vote against Gov. Smith,” he said. “I don't hold with him. TI've been here in Chicago since 1881." Little straws, but indicating that there is, after all, some division of opinion in Chicago. Indorsed in Advertisements. But the indorsement given Gov. Smith for the presidency is not con- fined by any means to the poorer classes. The Chicago newspapers car- ried yesterday huge paid advertise- ments indorsing Smith, signed by a committee of Chicago’s most select, some of them residents of the “Gold Coast.” Among the signers-were Mrs, Kellogg Fairbank, Mrs. Willilam G. Hib- bard, Harold F. McCormick, E. N. Hur- ley, Mrs. Stanley Field, Mrs. Mitchell D. Follansbee and Robert Allerton. The “They said the same things about Lincoln.” “Who did? The snobs of 1860. They laughed at Lincoln because he came from the people. They sneered, ‘imagine the Lincolns in the White House,’ but the people stood by Abraham Lincoln. The million who think and speak affec- tionately of Al Smith must meet the advertisement read, in part: g o8 same attacks the supporters of ‘Abe’ an Wi n, providing for of “thess ' iwo. associations under the charter and title of “The Rizes National Bank of Washington.

His successor as nation- al committeeman for Illinois, Thomas F. Donovan of Joliet, was on hand, however, and presided at the meet- ing last night. Gov. Smith looked the picture of health.

(Continued from First Page.) | Washington was started at 5 o'clock | and the President and Mrs. Coolidge | were back at the White House before 7, o'clock, in time for the evening meal. The ceremonies took place in historic surroundings. They were conducted by Representative Bland of Virginia. Others who spoke besides the President were Goy. Byrd of Virginia, who headed the committee that received the Presi- dent upon his arrival at Fredericksburg and escorted him to the scene of the dedication; Senator Swanson, Edgar J. Rich of Boston and Maj. Gen. John L. Clem, U. S. A. Miss Lillian Anita Clem, granddaughter of Gen. Clem and Miss Rebecca M. Lee of Fredericksburg, un- veiled the bronze tablet to commemorate the beginning of work on the National Battlefields Park. Speaks on Radio Tonight. The President made virtually no en- gagements for today, it being his aim to devote his attention to accumulated | routine matters. He informally re- ceived Karl H. Von Wiegand, Gernian correspondent for a number of Amer- ican newspapers, who was a passenger on the Graf Zeppelin, on its successful journey to this country, and the secre- tary of the British embassy, who presented Lady Edward Spencer Churchill. At 9 o'clock tonight the President will make an address over the radio in connection with the. ceremonies at West Orange, N. J., incident to the presentation of a medal granted by Congress to Thomas A. Edison. Virginia’s Role Praised. No one who loves our country and is sufficiently interested to make even a slight examination of our history could visit this locality without feeling that he is close to great characters and great events, From early colonial times down to the present hour men who have lived and wrought in this section of Virginia have cast a mighty influence over the course of the affairs of this Nation. They have been a race who led in carv- ing out this Republic and establishing its_institutions, who believed in local self-government and loved liberty. The famous sons of this Common- wealth furnished the leadership for ac- quiring the territory which makes up the continental domain of the United States. Washington gave us the thir- teen Colonies, George Rogers Clark added the Northwest, Lewis and Clarke carried our jurisdiction to the Pacific, Jefferson made the Louisiana Purchase, Monyoe secured Florida, Sam Houston brought in the State of Texas, Win- field Scott and Zachary Taylor won the California region. Your soldiers led the forces in the field, and your statesmen directed the negotiations at the council table in bringing together that vast area, stretching from the Atlantic to the Pa- cific, which comprises our Federal Union. Their wisdom endowed our country with an empire. Recalls Civil War Battles. But the historic interest of this lo- cality is by no means confined to the creation and the formative years of our Republic. When the Nation became in- volved in the great tragedy which over- took it in 1861, the contending armies of the North and the South for long periods had opposing camps in this re- glon, where occurred some of the hard- est fought battles of the war. Because of their historic interest and their valuable military lessons, the Con- gress unanimously passed a bill last year, introduced by your distinguished Representative, Mr. Bland, to make a military park and mark and preserve the important points on these battleilelds. ‘The unanimous action of the Congress and the joint participation of the people, both of the North and the South, in carrying int effect the law which it passed is another welcome demon- stration in a long line of events, not only that the war is over, but that reconciliation is becoming complete.

WASHINGTON, a fervor no less pronounced than that of Lincoln, the Union which took a new place in the world under Wilson, is not accorded a loyalty in any other part of our, Republic more devoted and sincere than that which # constantly manifest in the life of the people of Virginia. Cites Rebuilding of South. The main reason why we can all join in the movement to commemorate the deeds of immortal valor which marked these battleflelds is because we all realize that out of a common expiation our common country has been greatly blessed. In these advantages, as it has slowly risen from its prostration, the South has more than amply partici- pated. Since 1900 that progress has been most marked. In the Southern States alone the wealth, the manu- factured, the mineral and the farm products, the banking resources and the exports are of about the same value today that they were in the whole United States in 1900. The yearly pro- duction of the farms, the mines and the mills exceeds $18,000,000,000, while the construction contracts run about $1,000,000,000. If it is possible to judge anything of the importance which a people set on spiritual values, or make any estimate of their intellectual at- tainments by what they are expending in construction of places of worship and in the support of the public schools, some idea of the progress which the South is making is revealed by the fact that their school costs are twice as much as those of the whole country in 1900, while on the new church buildings that cost more than $10,000 they are ex- pending $1,000,000 each week. Marks National Occasion. | ‘This day, however, is not to mark a | local or sectiopal occasion. It is to mark a national occasion. The great deeds which we have recalled as among the glories of this commonwealth were national deeds. The great questions which were at issue on these battle- fields were national questions. Out of the decision to which they were finally brought there has been a common ad- vantage and a common progress which has accrued to the whole Nation. Had the decision been otherwise we should have all been robbed of a great part of the pride which we all feel today in our country. Her achievements of the past years would have been divested of much of their value and her prospects for the future would have been devoid of much of their hope. Instead of one great country enjoying domestic peace and progress, holding a commanding vosition in the world, we should have | been a region of hostile factions, im- potent at home and despised abroad. The service which we did for the cause of humanity in 1898, the world -crisis in which we successtully perfcrmed our part in 1917, would all have been im- possible. Long since our common heritage would have been di&ilplt(‘d,i our glory would have departed, Section animosities have disap- peared. Industrial conflicts have al- most ceased. Her territorial integrity is secure. Her constitutional liberties are protected by the eternal vigilance of Fer people. Our country is still worthy of those who have made such great sacrifices in its behalf. still de- termined to improve the opportunities which those sacrifices created, still loyal to the faith of the past, still inspired by the hope of the future.

Belgium would receive over $600,000,000, and France $1,750,000, or over half the cost of actual reconstruction. The United States would receive the largest sum of all, $2,800,000,000. It is said that all concerned have an interest in accepting this plan or some- thing like it. Germany would get a big reduction of her debt, freedom from foreign financial control, a new sense of financial certainty. and probably im- mediate, full evacuation of the Rhine- land ] debts to Great Britain and the United States and recover half of the recon- struction costs. Great Britain would get free of her debt to the United States and the benefit of increased peace and prosperity on the continent. The United States would exchange the uncertainties of 60 years for a con- siderable cash payment and would benefit commercially and financially by the improved situation in Europe. Some Hitches May Occur. Nevertheless, it is doubtful if the principal powers will accept this plan at the outset of negotiations. If only for reasonms of interior politics, they must first make a show of great stub- bornness and hard bargaining. It is understood, however, that both Premier Poincare and Mr. Gilbert are optimistic. The latter has just come from London and Berlin, and is known to be in touch with Washington. He must, therefore, have some plausible basis for his feeling of confidence that the present is a propitious time for “final liquidation of the war.” (Copyright, 1928, by Chicago Daily News. Inc.)
