this process eliminates the
r — 1
to suggest changes Hn the Constitu-
tion or the law. Nullification exists
in refusal or willful failure to enforce.
Honest Enforcement
“To summarise, the Democratic
platform does not commit the party
for or against modification. It does
pledge the nominees to an honest
effort to enforce the Eighteenth
Amendment and the laws enacted
pursuant thereto. Governor Smith
has promised his best efforts to en
force prohibition. His personal opin
ion that the law or the Constitution
should be changed to make certain
better observance and enforcement,
does not affect his disposition or abil
ity to perform that duty.”
On the subject of the Merchant
Marine, Senator Robinson asserted:
‘‘While the necessity for Govern
ment ships continues, and until they
i can be transferred under satisfactory
conditions for private operation, the
service should be kept efficient and
should be improved to meet competi
tion with foreign lines and to provide
for the expansion of our commerce.”
He said the Democratic party recog
nizes that an adequate merchant ma
rine Is essential to the safety of the
nation and Ahe Independence of its
commerce. However, he said. Demo
crats have never advocated as a per
manent policy Government ownership
and operation of shipping. The party
has refused to approve "reckless
sacrifice and favoritism in the sale of
vessels,” he declared.
The platform makers of the Re
publican party recognized that the
corruption at Washington was a ma
jor issue of this campaign in their
effort to anticipate the declaration on
the subject by the Democratic party.
Senator Robinson said.
"While rare cases of fraud may be
regarded as unavoidable in any busi
ness comparable in volume to that of
the United State#, it becomes a mat
ter of general political concern when
the party in power prove® so derelict
As to fail to prevent shocking and re
peated departures from standards of
common honesty in the transaction of
the public business,” asserted Senator
Robinson.
If the principle enunciated In the
Republican platform had been applied
by the Republican administration it
would have been unnecessary for the
Senate to advise the discharge of an
Attorney General "who had flagrantly
disregarded the obligations of his of
fice and contributed to the pollution
of the fountain of Justice,” Senator
Robinson continued. ‘‘The country
would have been spared the spectacle
of an executive sustaining this faiih-
less officer until public sentiment com
pelled dismissal, and the dismissal
would have been made without expres
sion of confidence in the faithless of
ficer by the chief executive,” he said.
Smith’s Record
Likewise, he went on, there would
have been no necessity for the Senate
to urge the retirement of a Secretary
of the Navy who had approved the
contract by which the oil reserves
were given to private interests through
the bribery of a fellow cabinet officer,
the Secretary of the Interior.
‘‘Throughout almost four terms the
Democratic nominee for President has
served as chief executive of New
York,” Senator Robinson said. ‘‘Dur
ing all his service the searchlight of
hostile scrutiny has been thrown in
full glare on his administrations. That
Governor Smith’s record has stood the
test Is evidence dr that extraordinary
executive ability and fearlessness re
quired in a President of the United
States, who is expected to safeguard
the Government against such thieves
and crooks as have plundered it dur
ing recent years.” K
In , conclusion Senator Robinson
said: ‘‘The safety of our political in
stitutions depends on fair election®
and honest government. You may
never expect clean government if
nominations or elections are to be
bought and sold. Of course, such
methods do not meet with approval
by the majority of the Republican
party. Many Republicans condemn the
indifference of their leaders to the
ignominious record mentioned—a rec
ord which never could have been
made if the watchmen on the towers
had .not fallen asleep.
“The Democratic party Invites the
cooperation of all who desire the ad
ministration ot national affairs re
formed in accordance with the prin
ciples set forth in its platform.
