h’\ * ‘ -a THE BABNWKLL PB0PLB4SNTDCBL, BAKNWSLL, 80UTB CABOLOf A THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, IMS. Why Alfred E. Smith Should Be Elected President of the United States. By Samuel Hutchins Still, Jr. Member of the Senior Class of The Citadel. "Prosperity” (The following is an essay written j sections of the middle-west are in by S. H. Still, Jr., of Blackville, a cadu at The Citadel in Charleston. Young Still shows an unusual under standing of national affairs and his essay will be read with interest by readers of The Pmople-Sentinel.— Ed. Note.) A1 Smith is a man with a personali ty. He is a leader, a humanitarian, a man of principles and ideals. He is an outstanding figure in thig nation of ours. Hence, he has accepted its call to leadership with a detp sense of re sponsibility and a fervent prayer for the guidance of Divine Providence. In all these years since the passing of Woodrow Wilson the Republicans have been extracting exorbitant ma terialist gains from the wealth of our nation. They have thrown our coun try into a financial panic and dis tressful condition. They have had their chance. The time is at hand for a new crusade, one of happiness and prosperity. There is a need to inject fruitful and honest legislation into our gov<rnmental system. The Republicans offer Hoover; the Democrats offer Smith. Hoover is not the Hoover of 1918, he is merely a cog in the enormou* Republican Ma chine. There are many other cogs equally as strong as Hoover in that Machine. On the other hand, Smith is the choice of a nation. He presents not party scandals and graft but rare leadership. He is not a nullification- ist, he is an executor. Although he has his own opinion in regards to pro hibition and other issues, if ehlcted president, he promises to enforce such issues only as outlined in the con stitution. He is to be admired for this. If a president does not recom mend what he thinks best, he is not a kader. If congress does not act in approval of public opinion, it is his place to veto. And he will. There is no question that the farm ers throughout the more progressive revolt against the economic conditions which have made it possible for them to get what they consider their rightful share of the blessings from the much heralded and fafsely-rep- res«nted era of Republican prosperity. Hoover has turned a deaf ear to this plea for justice to agriculture. These distressed farmers in their agrarian uprising are looking to Smith They are no longer willing to support Republicans who have given them in gratiating promises—never to be ful filled. They look to Smith because he has a g'mplr but direct way of act ing. And he gets results. Smith has proved himself an able and progressive chief executive of a great commonwealth. His record of achk/vement and leadership in con- structivo statesmanship in the 8 years of his incumbency has been such as to win high praise from such Republi can sachems as Elihu Root and Charles Evans Hughes. The man who so wisely adminis ters the affairs of the empire State possessed exactly the qualities needed at Washington. Smith’s attitude to ward super-power, toward non- par- * tisan , appointment to office, and toward prohibition makes him out standing. Toward the greater and I even moie pressing problems of thei distribution of incomes and owner ship of property, he is making tenta tive approach. It is belkived that he will restore government to the people and admin ister public affairs upon Jeffersonian and Jacksonian principles. Let us render him our wholehearted and loyal support. Thera are, aa everybody now knowa, two Republican campalgna, the official campaign and the unofficial campaign. In theory they are aeparate. In fact they are perfectly harmonious. Like Mr. Hoover, we find that charts are useful In keeping track of a com plicated organization. So we present here our own blue-prlnt of how the Republican campaign of 1928 is being run. * For Pretident Herbert Clark Hoover For Vice President Charles Curtis Turkish Modest)' Constantinople, Oct. 23.—All Turk ish girls starting the school term passed in review before tbeir teachers, and those whose skirt* were consider ed too short wore sent home with or ders not to return until the skirts came down an inch below the knee. Every purchaser of a new Ford is entitled to Free Inspection Service for the first 1500 miles •a co THE modern automobile is a finely built piece of ma chinery and it will stand a lot of abuse. Considering the work it does, it gives sur prisingly little trouble. But there isn’t a car made that will not run better and longer if given proper care. The first few hundred miles are especially impor tant because that is when the mechanism of your car is being broken in. Proper attention during this period will lengthen its life and prevent unnecessary trouble later on. JTe are particularly inter ested in this matter because we believe it is our duty not only to make a good auto- mobile, but to help the owner get the greatest pos sible use over the longest period of time at a mini in u m of trouble and expense. With this in view, the entire Ford dealer organ ization has been specially trained and equipped to ser vice the new Model A car. Furthermore, we have in structed every Ford dealer to give the following Free Inspection Service at 500, 1000 and 1500 miles: Check battery Check generator charging rata Check distributor adjustment Check carburetor adjustment Check lights Check brakes Check shock absorber adjust ment Check tire inflation Chock steering gear Change engine oil Lubricate chassis No charge is made for labor or materials incidental to this service, except, of course, where repairs are necessary through accident, misuse or neglect. The only charge is for new oil. See your Ford dealer, therefore, and get this Free Inspection of your new car at 500, 1000 and 1500 miles. Find out, too, how little it will cost to have your car given a thorough going- over at regular periods thereafter. . A checking-up by experi enced mechanics, together with oiling and greasing every 500 miles, will add months and years to the life of your ear and mean more economical and plea surable motoring every mile yon drive.

With this diagram of the Republican campaign in mind we can proceed to discus* what our neighbor the Herald Tribune describes a* “the powerful of fensive now sweeping forward.” This powerful offensive, it says, is “the un derlying issue of prosperity." That Is inaccurate. Prosperity is the over lying issue, the official Issue, the osten sible Issue, the thing which the re spectable spellbinders have been told to talk about The underlying issue on which the Republicans really base their hope of success ere the issues in the unofficial campaign. The real purpose of the prosperity talk is to frighten and distract the attention of those business men and wage earners and professional men and women in the East who are on the verge of re volt against the intolerable character of the unofficial Republican campaign. The Republican spellbinders have no Intention of appealing to reason or of dealing with the facts. Their object Is to frighten, not to persuade, and they will under no circumstances per mit themselves to be drawn into a real discussion of economic questions.* Their plan is simply to claim the credit for all the prosperity that exists and to threaten the Ignorant and the timorous with bankruptcy, unemploy ment and disaster if they vote for Gov ernor Smith. We know from the ut terances of Messrs. Hoover, Curtis, Work and Longworth that in this pros perity campaign they will stop at noth ing; neither at thf downright falsifica tion of the statistics nor the downright misrepresentation of what Governor Smith has said.—The New York World. OR. CADMAN ASSAILS BIGOTED PREACHERS The campaign of bigotry being waged by intolerant and Ignorant clergymen In some parts of the coun try was denounced by Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, noted New York clergyman, in an addr»*f frr^dcast ovsr tw< radio stations under the auspices of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. - “I regret to state,” be said, “that there has been In this country a spirit of backbiting, malignant slandering, malicious lying of an unprecedented extent If one told me that bigotry of every sort accompanied as It is always by false accusations and bear ing false witness against one’s neigh bor would have arisen, as it has arisen in some cases I could name, I would not have believed it of the American people. * “The pulpit is no place to preach politics,” he declared. “Let us devote the pulpit to far higher things.” BISHOP DECRIES BIGOTRY WASHINGTON, D. C.—Minister* who use their pulpits for the diacus sion of political Issues and the stir ring up of religious prejudice were de nounced by the Right Rev. Charles P Anderson, Episcopal Bishop of Chi cago, in an address before the General Convention of the Episcopal Church. “Unhappily, the priceless possession of religions liberty, which has been won at great coat, is being threatened in our day,” he said. “Is there to be a renaissance of religions intolerance in this land, to which men eagre tor freedomr Ad vert be in The Beopie-SentineL Legal Advertisements Notice to Set Off Homestead.
