Said that he served in the senate with Senator Harding, that he was neither good nor bad, strong nor weak, but that he heard Senator Harding say that the Farm Loan act was one of the most pernicous pieces of legislation ever enacted by congress. Mr. Pollock favors league of nations, federal aid for wipinsr out il literacy, and Federal Reserve act. He also stated that he was a prohibitionist. Said that liquor should never be returned to South Carolina. Said with the tremendous number of automobiles in the state that more people would be killed in accidents due to intoxicated drivers than were killed in the world war. Senator Pollock received some ap-' plause at the conclusion of his speech. Senator E. D. Smith who had entered the hall when Mr. Irhy was speaking and had for the first time in the campaign listened to the speeches of his oDDonents was the last speaker. Senator Smith plainly showed the fatigue which he suffered as a result of the strenuous days and nights of the recent Democratic convention and the long trip back home. His voice, however, was strong and clear and after he warmed up his speech was well delivered and well received. The chairman in introducing Senator Smith stated that he would give an account of his stewardship. This the senator did evidently to the satisfaction of his audience as he was the recipient of more applause than any of the other candidates. Mr. Smith briefly gave a resume of the'work don'e at San rancisco and tola oi tne iormuiation 01 tne democratic platform by the committee on resolutions of which he was a member. The senator stated that this committee seemed fired with the sole purpose of formulating a platform which would represent the real sentiments of the majority of the members of the great par^y. Senator Smith said that very little time was devoted to "playing politics" in the committee meetings. i He also told of the balloting and that he believed that the., delegates were absolutely sincere ?n casting their votes. He stated that the delegations supported their candidate;* just so long as there seemed any chance of their nomination. The senator gave a graphic description of the landslide for Governor Cox when it *ras seen that he was the choice of a majority of the delegates. | Senator Smith then proceeded to give an account of his stewardship as the senior senator from South r> _i:__ A?-C A~A in Vttiunutt. lie UCJLCUUCU I LAO ACUV1U AM no uncertain terms and referred m particular to his work for tlie Federal Reserve act, his work apamst the cotton exchange, the cotton futures act, th6 purchase of nitrates by the government at a cheap price for the farmers, his success in securing an equal basis for agricultural paper along with commercial paper as collateral.
