Smith in his spezch renominating Governor Roosevelt, declared that office hold- crs unfaithful to their trust should not only be removed from their county acclama- posts but should be driven from the | ranks of the democxatic party and be prosecuted in the courts.

The former governor's statement | regarding corruption came in the course of his criticism of the plat- form adopted by the republican state gonvention at Albany last wee “The republican platform,” he said, *“speaks of corruption in the government of the cities of New York and Albany and stresses im- proper and corrupt practices with respect to the judiciary.

In an cditorial the Crimson stig- matized a dinner given last night at Towell House, newest of the house units, as an “undemocratic display of starched laundry.” The paper took particular affront at the. “high table” where notables and student members of the house committee were seated in formal attire. On the main floor, several feet lower than the high table, were seated some 250 students in informal dress. Guests at the high table President A, Governor Frank Julian L.
