He cited farm relief as perhaps the “most important of the four and declared that Herbert Hoover, the republican standard bearer, who he described as the president’s trust- ed advisor, was rhaps more directly responsible for the failure of farm relief legislation” during the Harding - Coolidge administrations than any other single political leader. The senator said that if a more effective plan than that comprised by the equalization e proposal of the McNary-Haugen farm bill were discovered that it should be adopted, but that the “time has come, how- ever, when an economic adventure is justified,” in behalf of the farmer Mr. Robinson, a consistent sup-| porter of dry legislation in congr opened his discussion of prohibition with the statement that “there h always been room in the democratic party for those who differ as to the best means of promoting temperance and of suppressing the traffic in al- coholic beverags.” Two Platforms He reviewed the respective posi- tions of the democratic and repub- lican platforms on prohibition: de- clared the Houston convention had recognized ghat democracy Wwas neither a prohibition nor an anti- prohibition organization and launch- ed an attack against those who have referred to Governor Smith, the party’s presidential nominee, as a| nullificationist. “Can it be said,” he declared.| “that because Governor Smith hr‘-l lieves that without returning to the| old evils of the saloon, temperance | . is acceptance speech recognized Farm Rellef the ‘“persistence of the (farm) problem and what is more signifi- cant the failure of his party to #d- ‘a constructive program of | | relietr » | | Hoover’s Remarks { and respect for law can be promot-| The senator reviewed Mr. Hoov- ed through changes in the existing|er's remarks on the farm question | that the democrats | an enemy of the constitution?

Court documents, in- variably ~ covering dozens upon dozens of pages, will continue to be in manuscript.
