ROBINSON ASKS FOR TOLERANCE Tulks in Keatacky on the Re- - ligows I Owensboro, Ky., Sept. 21 (P— Advised by state democratic leaders that religion was one of the issues to be fought out in Kentucky, Sena- tor Joe Robinson opened his cam- peign here with a plea for religious tolerance and a declaration that he admired Gov. Smith for having fol- lowed the faith of his mother—that of the Catholic church. Mr. Robinson, who today moved on to Paducah for the last of & two speech drive in the state, said here last night that he was a Methodist largely because his mother had been a Methodist and predicted that most of the audience, which crowded into & big tobacco warehouse, were mem bers of their respective churches because their mothers had belonged to those churches before them. Follows Up Attacks The democratic vice presidential nominee followed up attacks else- where on what he describes as “the sition toward the farmers while serving as food administrator under Woodrow Wilson. It is true as Mr. Work states, he said, that only a part of a cable- gram by the republican presidential nominee to George N. Peek, a leader in the farm relief movement, was read. But Mr. Work is wrong, he added, that Hoover was misrepre- sented. The cablegram “bristles” with dec- larations, he said, referring to the necessity of maintaining control of wheat in order to prevent higher prices before the next harvest, and embraces the statement that “unless some superior force intervenes .... we intend to hold the price of wheat to the figure it has stood during the entire war under congressional guar- antee." The senator said he would be glad 1o have Work make public the whole text of the message, and added that in a former address-he had referred to Senator krederick M. Sackett, Kentucky's senior senator, and other republican speakers “attempting to | popularize Mr, Hoover with farm producers” by claiming he had done | cverything possible to raise wheat | prices while food administrator.” | “He is not entitled to support | from any source,” Mr. Rohmsoni said, ‘on the theory that he raised prices paid to farmers above what | the market price would have yielded.” NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD; FRIDAY, HOOVER T0 GNORE JIBES FROM SHITH Does Not Intend to Answer Any Attacks Washington, Sept. (UP)—Her- bert Hoover inten to take no recognition personally of the attacks made upon his campaign platform by Gov. Alfred E. Smith in his west- ern tour, the United Press was in- formed today. The answers which will be made to Smith will be delivered by the important republican orators and by Chairman Hubert Work of the na- tional committee. Hoover will con- tinue with the quiet plan of cam- paign he already has marked out for himself, no matter what Smith says, according to the announce- ment. This course of action was decided upon by the inner council after Smith's farm speech in Omaha, which mentioned Hoover by name and purported to quote from some of Hoover speeches. Hoover has been conducting his Hoover.
