As in the cases of his more recent addresses, the nom'nee will withhold the subject of his lhry.t-l appeal until he goes on try ‘wet’ and Herbert Hoover can't |the make it ‘dry"” all this talk along those lines is sham battle,” Col. H. Russell Wood. republican campaign- er, told a gathering of Stanley Rule & Lavel workmen at a noonday rally today. Although Col. Wood held the at- tention of his audience for 15 mil utea, but one man applauded as he brought his speech to a close with an appeal Yor continued good times under the republican party. Immi- gration and tariff were the principal ftems of discussion. Col. Wood, whose home is In Hartford, insisted that Hoover is better fitted for the presidency, hav- ing known what it means to work as & mine Jaborer and having work- ed himself to a position as the greatest mining engineer {n the country, according to the speaker. Governor Smith, on the other hand, he declared, has always been & poli- ticlan. Next Tuesday will determine whether the workingmen of New Britain will continue to work through the election of the republi- can ticket, or will turn to brea lines and hard times, in the opinion of Col. Wood, as expreased to “." rule workers. He quoted statistics ‘o back up his claim of prosperity un- der the republican party, using the arguments of wages here and abroad as the main point. He warned that Smith and the democrats will let down the bars on immigration and that by so doing he will give every job holder a com- petitor for his place, and give the country another mouth to feed. Week of Political Activity Factory gate rallies by both the republicans and the democrats, eve- ning rallies, women's card parties for the democrats and & parade by the republican women are on this week's political scheduls.

CROWD AT MODEL HOME Largest Attendance Yet at Jones Property In Stanley Quarter Manor Noted On Sunday. Interest in bullding seems to be running high, judging from the number of people who yesterday took advantage of the opportunity | 10 visit the Jones model home in Stanley Quarter Manor recently, thrown open for public inspection. Full details concerning the building were carried exclusively in a recent ssue of the Herald. ‘The house was built and outfitted | by local dealers in furniture and fit. tings, and built by local contractors, with the jdea of furmishing demon- strations of their work or their stock to those who planned building of homes or changes in equipment of | one already bullt, {its development ‘was traced through the advertising columns of the Herald by its spon- sors. It was formally opened last Friday evening with a short cere- mony and many attended the open ing. The largest crowd yet visited the home Sunday.

The building will be 120x230, one story high. It was designed and will be built by the M. G Tuttle Construction Co., Boston. Mrs. Wilson There Intreduced in Boston by one eof Woodrow Wilson's daughters, Mrs. Frances B. Sayre, Governor Smith was notified that Mrs. Woodrow Wilson would be on the platform in Baltimore tonight. A separate re- ception for Mrs. Smith was on the program. In view of the nominee's state- ment that he intended to employ the final week of the campaign in a summing up of the questions he be- lieves are at issue, several of those in his party were of the opinion to- day that he would devote at least & part of his single Maryland speech to prohibition, as he did in Phila- delphia. Others thought he would take another oral fiing at Herbert Hoover, probably in connectien with his extra u-n statement on farm relief. Retarns to New York After an overnight stay in Balti-! more, Governor Smith will return to New York to prepare for lis|oiiernor, thousands of names have speech at Newark, N. J., Wednes- day night. On Friday in the Acad- d |emy of Music at Brookiyn he will | deliver an address on state issues, and on Saturday night wind up his speaking campaign with a general appeal to the national electorate | from Madison Square Garden. Bcores of telegrams had reached the governor today praising his Philadelphia speech. Chairman Ras- kob had something to say about it himself in & statement issued at Claymont: Means Victory »At Philadelphia Saturday night,” the statement said, “I witnessed a demonstration for the democratic presidential nomines, which I am informed by members of the party who have traveled throughout the ) country with him, was similar in comparison with the size of the oth- | er cities visited for its enthusiasm and spontaneity. It can mean noth- ing but victory. | “It is easy to appreciate the en- thusiasm of the imdependent citizens committee of Philadelphia and the Pennsylvacia democratic organiza- tion in their firm belief of carrying | that rock-ribbed republican city after last night's demonstration.” CONFLICTING ISSUES IN JERSEY CAMPAIGN (Continued from First Page) “prosperity’ speech. All over the state, republican leaders went to work with the tarift and prosperity as their principal issues. They apy- pealed in particular to the million and a half employes in the Jersey factories, They dismissed the wet and dry lasue as inapplicable here NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1928 where such republican leaders as|ity, which he insists will be enough | Senator Edge are as openly cpposed |to upset any um-r-uunl-m to the present dry laws as is Gover- nor Smith himwif. The republican wets argued that the 8mith wmodifi- cation plan was not feasible, anyway and that it would not be desirable to have the country half wet apd half dry. The democrats, in turn, insisted that New Jersey's many industries would have nothing to fear under the democratc tariff plank of 1978. Thus the parties nave reached a stage where the republicans deny that prohibition is an issue, and the democrats deny that the tariff is an issue, whie the voters are showing increasing aigns of making an issue of their own out of religion. Th ve 2re many Catholics in New Jersey. including thousands of foreign de- scent in the populous industrial cen- ters, while the Klan has been a fac- tor in the dry, Protestant sections outstate. While all of this was taking place, some of the principal leaders of Mayor Hague's Jersey City organ- ization, counted on as a great pillar of Smith strength in the state, were, kept busy answering subpoenas and replying to various charges before an investigating committee appoint- ed by the republican legislature. ‘The mayor himself, who also is the ! demociatic national committeeman, was summoned before the investi- gators today at Trenton. Nor did this legislative thrust at dominance in state politics ingly. Under a law just pass- ed over the veto of the democratic been erased from the polling lists n Hudson and Essex counties, which contain, respectively, the democratic strongholds of Jersey City, and Newark. The republicans charge that these rolls were heav- ily padded. The democrats deny It and charge a republican attempt to disenfranchise democratic voters. ‘Whether many of the deleted names will be reinstated by election day is problematical. Despite this situation, Hague pre- cities, although they concede that the suburban and country sections are likely to turn out strongly fer Hoover, Regiatration in th: points out Hudson and Emez counties totalled around 200,000, Claims of a democratic victory are deacribed by E. B. Mott, the re- publican state chairman, as wholly ridiculous. He declares his prophecy of a 250,000 Hoover margin are based on detalled reports of a defi- nite Hoover awing all over the state. He even is claiming Esses county by 40,000, Nor do the republican leaders fail to point out to inquirers what a heavy turnover from previous presidential counts would be meces- sary to swing New Jersey to Smith. Although it has been choosing democratic governors and senators, the state has been persistently re. publican in the electoral college ever since the Tilden-Cleveland era. After voting the democratic ticket for five successive times, New Jer- sey quit the party in 1896. Tt has given no democratic presidential ominee a majority since, although n 1912 Wilson did carry the state ! i by a minority vote when the repub- licans divided between Taft and Roosevelt. Furthermore, the state gave Cool- idge 269,000 majority four years ago over the combined vote of Davis and La Follette. FIRE ON WINTHROP STREET Co.
