(Centinued trom First Page) those nearest to him. Matthew J. Callahan, secretary to the mayer, ‘was alloweq to board the train to Present the Smiths with a chest of silver, the gift of Mr. and Mrs. Paonessa. ‘Will Protect Local Industries Ia view of the dispute concern. ing the stand of the republican and democratic parties on the tariff, Mayor Paonessa obtained Gov. Smith's signature to the following statement: “You may tell your people in the eity of New Britain and the state of Cennecticut, if T am elected presi- dent of the United States, it will be my aim to proteet the workingman to the fullest degree, and that I will do nothing to bring about tar- i legislation which will s0 injure the {ndustries of their cities as to reduce their earning powers one penny. “The products of New Britain are known the world over. They are matters not only of local prida but also of hational pride. T would not consider for a moment anything that ‘would place their continued success in jeopardy and I wish to reassure my friends in New Britain on that score.” (8igned) ALFRED E. SMITH. The cheering hardly died down for a moment during the five min. ‘utes the train was at the Main street crossover. Had it been the governor's intention to speak it ‘would have been impossible for him to be heard. Ovation For Mrs. Smith Mrs. Smith was tendered a veei- ferous ovation as she waved to the crowd and smiled. The cheers that went up as she threw a kiss at the multitude made the center of the city ring. She was attired in a maroon silk gown with hat to match and wore a fur coat. On the Smith train when it left Hartford, were Mayor and Mrs. Paonessa, Mias Constance Paonessa, Judge Willlam F. Mangan, Mrs. Laura Mangan, Registrar Thomas J €mith, Police Chief . C. Hart and Constable Frank Clynes. At the Main street crossover here, Attor- ney Thomas F. McDonough and Councilman Samuel Sablotsky board- ed the candidate’s special and the entire party went to Waterbury. Mrs. Mangan Lands Mrs. Smith Mrs, Mangan, one of the leaders among the democratic women df ‘this city, was charmed by Mm. Emith's personali She talked with the candidate’s wife during the trip between Harttord and Wa- terbury, and was interested to learn of a common bond, both having Been school teachers before their marriage. Mrs. Smith radiated enthusiasm in her ‘*husband's campaign and shared his pleasure at the reception given him in the Connecticut cities, including New Britain, Mrs. Mangan said today. Mrs. Mangan described the candidate’s wife as & woman of eulture and refinement, well inform- o4 in matters political and thtendély | %oncerned in the affairs o her fam-1 fly. Although ghe has been travel-{ Ing over railroads for a month and | *has been in nearly every section of the country, Mrs. Smith did not ap- pear fatigued, seeming to concern herself more about her distinguish- | #4 husband's well-bsing than her own Tosses Derby Intn Crond Following hie custom, Governor Bmith tossed one of his famous brown derbies from the train, and _Rev. Walter J. Lyddy, assistant pas- tor of St. Mary's church, caught it and retained the souvenir _ Among the papers handed to *he | governor by admirers was a letter of congratulation and best wishes from the pupils of §t. Mary's Paro- ¢hial school Mrs. &mith was presented with & bouquet of chrysanthemums from | the democratic women of New Brit- ain by Mrs. Peter McCrann. Mary Alice Mangan, daughter of Judge and Mre. Mangan, presented Mrs. | John W. Warner, Governor Emith's @anghter, with a houquet of roses. “I'm completely astounded; 1 pever dreamed of such a reception in the City of New Britain. and 1 am happy that our plans were changed to provide for a halt here” Gover- nor Smith remarked to Attorney McDonough as he stood on the train platform and received the plaudits of the crowd “We're going to turn this tewn over to you,” the attorney remarked enthusiastically, and the e¢andidate | peplied: “If you do, it will con-' tribute greatly to a Connecticut vic- tory, and I Zertainly hope you do. During the ride to Waterbury, Mr. McDonough discussed various | phrases of the campaign with the | vernor, and on several occasions ith digressed from the subject| under discussion to remark on the | erowd and the enthusiasm in New Britain, the impression left with the | candidate evidently being a very| deep one. Mr. McDonough also met Mra. Bmith and described her as a charming person. At 4:45 o'clock, the demonstration Began when more than 400 boys and girls were received at democratic headquarters in United building and given banners with the photographs of Al 8mith and of candidates on the @emocratic ticket for state office. Parade Through City ‘When the “Kid's Brigade” reached the stréet, Eddy-Glover Post, Amer- fcan Legion band was waiting. Led by Attorney Thomas F. McDonough, | eandidate for senator, a disorganized | parade went through the central streets and into the fifth ward, stop- | ping in front of democratic head- | quarters at Broad and \\'Blhlnllnn‘ street, where a concert program was | played. The return march to the | eenter attracted additional hundreds | and when the band finally reached | the stand erected for it. Main street | was a solid mass of men and women | from Commercial street to West Main street, the arcade and Wash- ington place were packed =olid with people, the roofs of bulldings and | every window in the nearby oflices were taken Policemen Rave Big Task A score of policemen under the direction of Traffic Rergeant John} J. King 4id all that was humanly | gossible to keep the crowd under | { control. and they wers aided by the “New Haven" railrosd, no treins being sent through during the period of congestion. Rallroad policemen also gave material assistance in the work. The Connecticut Co. trolleys centinued to run ead furnished the most serious obstacle of the after- noon. After the governor's train pulled out of the station, the band march- ¢4 to Central park whers & con- cert was given under the light of red fire torches. Later in the evening, the six wards were visited by an impromptu parade of men, boys and automebiles, and band music re. echoed from every corner. Obeervations From the Roof Although not & conspicuous place, the roof afforded a perfect view of the surging crowd last night and all the incidents that go with a wild demonstration as was shown by the cheering, pushing, joyous mob. As the train bearing the democra- tic candidate pulled in, tardy in. dividuals could be seen blocks down each side of the rallroad crossing running as fast as possidble toward the eenter of interest. Long before train time each side of the tracks was packed with hu. manity swaying to and fro, ever growing bigger, till it seemed that ne earthly power could force through. The greatest difficulty arose when it became necessary to make a ehan. nel in the crowd for the trolley cars to pass. In a few instances it seemed that the vehicle woujd be unabla te make their way even with the help of the policemen and city efficlals, who attempted to make way for the cars. Each time, the crowd woulq open Up after rome “‘persuasion” to permit the car to go “through and then would élese fn on it.. To the ob. server from the top it appeared as it the crowd had taken the car bodily and earried it per force to the other side of the crossing. Crowd Wrecks Stand The careful attention the carpen- ters gave in building the band plat- ferm went to paught when the purg- ing erowd closed in on it and the masterpiece folded up like an ac- eordion ‘The stand first started to give way when the crowd was pushed to either side of the trolley tracks to let the ears by. Tt was then that the railings on two sides gave way and it was necessary for a few of the musicians to stand against the dalustrade to prevent further dam- It was apparent however that seoner or later the entire platform had to give way as the crowd around it was beyond control. Bomeone on the roof of one ef the buildings opposite the new Leon. ard block lost a coat, which came fiying to the sidewalk together with improvised confetti made out of newspapers. ‘The youngsters couldn't be kept away angd it seemed aa though many £ot undep the feet of their elders in their attempt to play & big part ef the demonatration. The dig of the welcome was terrific and the cheers voice of the crowd weat skyward with & volume never before witnessed in this city. Leng before the presidential can- @idate arrived, enmlookers from the roofs predicted that the plate glass | windew in Bechulte's cigar store would be ‘among those missing.” ‘The casualty came at the time the crowd began to break up and the prophecy came true. Someone sug- gested that the person who made it become weather prognosticator. A crowd of boys on an adjoining roof had a wild time. Thers were a numbder of newsboys in the crowd throwing all business ethics aside, they took the unsold news- papers tore them to bits and tossed the improvised confetti on the surg- ing crowd bhelow. Cheers of a wide variety thought | of on the spur of the moment were | undant, and interspersed with long “whoopies” and the singing of “East Side, West 8ide.” or “Hail, Hail the Gang’s All Here” SMITH HOME AGAIN AFTER DAY OF JoY (Continued from First Page) flowers were a sorry sight. At Norwalk, Smith was greeted by “Houston,” a Texas donkey, belong- ing to Mrs. Lillian Abbott, one of the state’s democratic women lead- ers. On his trip through Rhode Island and Cennecticut, the nominee was the center of a yelling throng in every city, town and hamlet through which he passed, either on board his special train or in an automobile perade.- The tumult and the shouting be- §an on his way to the train in Bos- | ton. Here the streets were lined with thousands who yelled e fare- well and engines in the railroad vards tooted out a parting salute as his traip passed on toward the open country. An hour out of Boston he de- trained at Biackstone, Mass, and travelled by motor through one crowd after another until Provi- dence, R. I. was reached. On the Wway to that city an airplane with the words “Al Smith” marked on the bottom of its wings soared overhead In Storms of Paper Once through the jam in Provi- dence, where he passed through clouds of fluttering paper, the nom- inee greeted audiences from the rear of the train wntil Hartford was reached. Here there was another parade; another paper storm: more cheering people: and a throng so thick at the station that a dozen or 80 newspaper correspondents were left dehind. The nominee’s train. however, backed up and picked them up. Darkness by this time had fallen and from Hartford ints New York, the station platforms were illumin- ated by the sputtering lights of red, green and white flares. At all sta- tions there were crowds, even at those points where the train went whissing by without stoppiag. New Britain and Waterbury, Conn., roared out their welcomes and then Derby, Shelton was reached. Here many In the gathering carried signa, each bearing some inacription. two of the placards read: “If you're & saciali 0 are we" and “Norris is with you, so are Moving on. to Bridgepert, the nominee looked down into a sea of faces that filled three streets from curb to curb. The tracks here were elevated and the crowd roared up & “Hello Al” and the governor waveq back. Other cities on the way into New York also turned out welcoming | crowds and on reaching New York | he found another group to greet | him back to the city in which his name first rose to prominence. Goes to Philadelphia Tomorrow New York, Oct. 26 (#—Governor Alfred E. Smith set aside today to confer with party chieftains and to collect new ammunition to be hurled |orally at his republican foes. The democratic nominee also ar. ranged to give a last look at the speech he has prepared for delivery tomorrow night in Philadelphia, the home clty of William §. Vare, first to announce that Pennsylvania's delegates to the Kansas City conven- tion were for Herbert Hoover. ‘The governor has not disclosed the subject of this address, but it miay be cither on labor or foreign relations as he has announced that both of these questions will be dealt with between now and election day. The nominee's drive into Pennsyl. vania, normally one of the citadels of republican strength, will be one of the few times in recent national campaigns that the democrats have made a determined hid for the 38 electoral votes of the Keystone State. In 1912 the state veered somewhat from its usual political affiliation by casting its vote for Theodore Roose- velt, progressive, but in 1916 it re- turned to the republican fold, where it has remained ever since. The democrats this year, however, have started a drive in an attempt to shake the state from its republican moorings. They contend that Governor Smith's stand on prohibition has a wide appeal to the voters of that commonwealth, particularly in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh Last Lap of Second Drive The swing into Pennsylvania will start the nominee off on the second stage of his final presidential drive. The first lap of this concluding ef- fort was finished late last night when he arrived here tired, but happy from responding to the wel. | comes of cheering crowds which greeted him but delayed his (ollrn‘\'; from Boston HELD AS RECKLESS DRIVER Cosmo Mancini, aged 22, of 123 Lawlor street, was arrested on the charge of reckless driving at 12:20 | today, by Motorcycle Officer David Doty. He was driving east on North street behind a car which was turn- ing left into Lawlor street, and he| cut to the left of it and entereq Lawlor street at the same time, ac- cording to the officer.
