The genuine bears signature of DAVIS SPEAKS PLAIN ENGLISH Candidate's Attack On G. O. P. At Topeka Satur day Makes Big Hit BY SEARS TAYLOR, Universal Service Correspondent. Kansas City. Mo.. Sept. 14.—The John W. Davis drive for the presi dency during the remainder of the campaign will be centered around smashing attacks upon corruption In the republican administration. It was definitely decided upon here Sunday by the candidate and his political ad visers. This decision was prompted by the enthusiasm aroused by the candidate in a serlos of speeches throughout the grain belt In which he openly flayed corruption at Washington within the last two years. His at tacks upon Fall, Denby, Forbes and jDoheny, his advisers declared, had given him greater strength in the jwest than any other phase of his campaign. Flays Administration Davis arrived here at midnight from Topeka, Kan., where ho launch ed a terrific attack on the republican party. Democratic chieftains from Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Cot nrado, who heard the speech, declared the "exposure" of graft and corrup tion In Washington was the nomi nee’s best ‘‘card" for capturing the presidency.

Among those who conferred with the nominee Sunday were Senator James A Reed of Missouri. Reed told the candidate that he had "struck the right tack” in his To peka address and recommended fur ther attacks on the same theme. His speech at Topeka Saturday night was by far the most vitriolic denunciation of the republican ad ministration and the republican party In general that he has yet made. Cordell Hull, Edward Dowry, and other democratic chieftains who are accompanying him on Ills trip, were decidedly pleased with Its effect. Advisers Pleased They have contended since the .■ampaign was first started that the democratic candidate's chances of success rested largely on his ability to “take, off his kid gloves" and for get “his court of appeals manner" of making a speech. His terrific attack on the administration satisfied his advisers that he had done so. Early Monday the candidate will leave for Bunceton, Mo., where he will make another onslaught on re publican corruption in office and will outline, In general, the demo crat ic plan for the relief of the farmer.
