COLUMBUS, Ohlo, September 8.— | Former United States Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, in a speech here last night, blamed the economic depression upon the Republican administrations of the past 10 vears, the prohibition law #nd the Republican tariff.

Reed expressed & belief that repeal of the prohibition laws would “vastly con- tribute to the restoration of good times shroughout the United States.” MemMTof Akron Crew Hurt.
