Dawes Bares La Follette-Red Trade
--— a
Socialists
for “Bob” to
GaiirEnds
“Constitution or Red Flag”
Only Issue of Campaign,
a Speaker I ells Omaha
Audience.
Raps Political Cowardice
La Follette demands In his plat
form his scheme for emasculating the
supreme court, because In no other
way could he have secured the sup
port of the socialist party.
This is the political trade which
forms the basis of the attack upon
La Follette made In Omaha this eve
ning by Charles G. Dawes, republican
candidate for vice president.
"In no other way could La Fol
lette have won these reds to his
cause,’’ he charged.
Denies Evading Issue.
"Democratic newspapers say I am
evading the issue in this campaign,’*
he said further. “That is too bad.
The trouble is that politicians and
political newspapers want to make
the Issues to suit themselves.
"I’ve heard this idea expressed lie
fore in this campaign. I’ve been ad
vised by politicians that this is the
issue and that that is the issue. Let
me tell you that these politicians
would have me make one kind of a
speech in one section and a different
kind of a speech In another section.
They would have me appeal to one
bloc with one argument, to another
bloc with a different argument.
Cowardice of Politicians.
“It is the cowardice of politicians
of that sort that has emboldened the
leaders of extreme radicalism, joined
with the socialists, to make tho at
tack which La Follette is making
upon tho constitution of the United
s States.
"Evading the issue? It Is they who
are evading the issue. When the con
stitution is assailed, when the very
foundation of our government is at
tacked, how can there be any other
issue?
Who Are Socialists?
"Who are these socialists? Eugene
V. Debs speaks for them when he
says 'We will hold our socialist
principles intact and keep the red
flag waving!’ ”
Mr. Dawes then went on to explain
the reason fonthe La Follette-social
ist tieup. The socialists. he ex
plained, are the strongest force be
hind La Follette. They are the only
ones who have a national organiza
tion.
It is this large following, which is
the backbone of the La Follette or
ganization In Wisconsin, that the Wis
consin senator needed to form the
nucleus of his independent candidacy,
Mr. Dawes explained.
Recalls Berger Talk.
The situation called to mind the
statements made by Victor L. Berger
during his recent visit to Omaha. Ber
ger said that the socialists had joined
La Follette because they thought it
would advance socialism. In other
words, the socialists were helping La
Follette, but that in reality they were
using him—that through him they
were "boring from within.”
The essence of the Dawes' charges
Is that the socialists are using La
Follette for the purpose of making a
breach in the walls of the constitu
tion, The constitution guarantees
private property, It guarantees re
** liglous liberty.
The socialists can never hope to
put their program into effect so long
as the supreme court can nullify laws
that seek to infringe upon private
property and upon religion.
Attack Supreme Court.
Therefore—so runs the essence of
the Dawes’ charges—the socialists
are driving to get rid of the supreme
court.
Jf congress is given the right to
override the supreme court on a
question of the constitutionality of a
congressional enactment—merely hy

Dos 'Angeles, Octi 10.—The navy
dirigible Shenandoah was sighted over

northwest, at 4:40 p. ill., according to
telegraphic advices received here by
the Southern Pacific. The ship was
traveling at an altitude of 5,000 feet.
IIv Associated Prwu.
Aboard U. S. S. Shenandoah, En
Route From Fort Worth, Tex., Oct.
10.—Struggling into a roaring wind,
that whistled down a mountain
canyon east of Cochise, Ariz., this
?2,000,000 pride of the navy’s nlr fleet
proved its worth In its greatest emer
gency during the darkness of the
early morning, when it answered the
helm and scraped by a mountain peak
at 7,000 feet altitude and negotiated
the dangerous gap in safety.
At 3:07 this morning there loomed
ahead the black gulch between Pina
Tinol, an 11,000-foot peak on the
north, and Do* Cabezas, a mountain
of 7,000 feet to the south.
The moon had disappeared and the
railroad tracks, which had been a
dim line on the shadowy sands be
neath, faded out of sight.
Providentially, a freight train
twinkled Into sight from behind a
mountain wall, and, with this as a
guide, the Shenandoah's nose was
headed Into the pass.
The wind, which had Joined with
its motors in driving it at a speed of
73 miles an hour across the state of
New Mexico, had changed.
Now it was roaring against it, down
the canyon at 25 milts an hour.
The ship had climbed to an altl
tude of 7,200 feet to be as near a
level with the peaks as possible.
“Hard left," ordered Dleutenant
Commander Dansdowne on the bridge.
The rudders turned, but the big craft
exposed its full length to the air
eddies that came whirling over and
around the peaks.
The Shenandoah was bobbing like
a cork, with all motors driving at
a speed which would have sent it
along at 50 miles an hour 111 a calm,
but it seemed to stand still, hesitat
ing.
In the control car the nerves of
the officers responsible for the safety
of the ship were tense. It seemed
that every man inside the huge hog of
silk was straining In sympathy with
the craft.
Another Narrow Pass.
Slowly It drifted to the right and
a wall of mountain aroso nut of the
darkness, so close that It seemed
within arm's length.
It was hut a moment before the
whirling blades of the propellers were
taking hold and, gently, with hut a
second to spare, it slid forward, away
from the mountain that would have
torn Its fragile sides Into shreds. The
lights of Cochise were sighted ahead
at 4:12 a. m., but the Shenandoah's
troubles were not over.
Twenty minutes later the green
switch lights of the cattle sidetrack
of Manzoro were below and the ship
was at the mouth of Dragoon pass,
narrower th.an the former one and
without moon or favoring winds.
Again fate was kind; anothe:
freight train showed the entrance
to the shadowy passageway of canons.
Although a mile and a half In the
air, the big ship was bnly a few
hundred yards above the sides of the
mountains and lower than some of
the peak*.
Henson, near the summit of the
divide, was below at B:l!) a. ni.
Day was breaking and the countaln

ness.
Tucson, lying like n picture of reds
and greens on the sandy plain, was
passed over at 8:30 a. m

Howell Stresses
Economies Fixed
by Pres. Coolidge
Pudget Measure Adopted by
G. O. P. After Strong
Opposition by
Democrats.
David City, Neb., Ort. 10.—In his
address here tonight Senator R- B.
Howell stressed the work of President
Coolidge in keeping his eyes on the
cash register. «
“At the time the republicans werJ
returned to power In 1921," said the
senator, "Industry and commerce
were marking time and agriculture
was all but prostrate. Tne national
debt exceeded } 24,000,000.000. of wnlch
87,000,000,000 were In short time secu
rities demanding early refunding, and
that in the face of the fact that gov
ernment bonds were selling materially
below par. The national expenditures
for the fiscal year ending June 30.
1921, amounted to $5,539,000,000,
which, together with the enormously
increased state, county and municipal
requirements throughout the country,
resulted in a tax burden unequaled in
the history of the nation.
"The first aid demanded by the
situation was economy—and more
economy. Acting In consonance with
this fact, congress promptly adopted
what Is known as the 'budget and
accounting act,’ a measure which in
principle had been recommendrd by a
[i-.mmlsslon on economy and efficiency
[apjiointed by President Taft toward
the closo of his administration.
Opposed by Democrats.
"In this connection it might be
noted that such a measure was
adopted by a republican congress—
after bitter opposition by democratic
members—following the advent of the
democratic administration In 1913—
the measure being subsequently veto
ed by President Wilson.
“The director of the budget has not
only been able to accomplish great
direct economies, hut indirect savings
also, by the co-ordination of certain
governmental activities in connection
with tho purchases of supplies. The
I act has resulted also in co-operation.
The appropriations committee, both In
the house and senate, now handle all
appropriations, Instead of as former
ly, when the different appropriations
Uv<re considered by various commit
tees.
Cut Expenditures.
“Through this Innovation and other
i a uses, such as tire reduction of the
Interest on public debt; and the ter
mination of the services of some 100.
aoo civil employes, the national ex
penditures decreased during the three
years ending July 30, 1924, an aver
ge of $1,387,000,000 and this decrease
has been progressive and the progres
sion Is still operative, ns the expendi
tures of the Inst fiscal year ending
tune 30, 1924. were more than $2,
>00,000,000 less thnn for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1921. More
i ver, during this three years the pub
lic debt has been reduced $2,750,000,
000. meaning a reduction In Interest
charges thereon of about $125,000,000,
annually. This period has witnessed
two marked reductions In the Income
tax rate, besides tho elimination of a
numl>er of speclnl taxes, and vet for
the fiscal year ending June St), 1924,
there was a surplus above expendi
ture in the neighborhood of $500.000,
(00."
The cltnehlng point In the address
came when the senator naked:
"When tills is considered In con
junction with tho fact that nit gov
ernment bonds are now above par,
• hat unemployment Is negligible, that
nil short lime securities have been re
tired or refunded on favorable terms,
and that last year was tho most pros
porous In our history, as measured
by our railroad traffic, why should
It be seriously believed by any one
thnt there Is n sentiment throughout
(hi- country for supplanting the pres
< nt republican administration?''

Brewer Out
of Iowa Rare
for Senator
G. O. P. Independent Candi
date Withdraws and Swings
Support to Steck Against
Brookhart, Incumbent.
Coalition With Demos
By Associated Press.
Des Moines, la., Oct. 10.—A new po
litical turn, declared by some observ
ers to be the beginning of the long
heralded coalition of regular repub
licans and democrats in Iowa,
through which republican opponents
of Senator Smith W. Brookhart hope
to bring his defeat in the November
election, developed today with the
withdrawal from the senatorial race
of Luther A. Brewer of Cedar Rapids,
republican independent candidate.
In withdrawing his name, Brewer
denounced Senator Brookhart as a
"deserter" of his party and gave his
followers and the democrats the cam
paign slogan, "sic 'em Steck," urging
them to support Daniel F. Steck of
Ottumwa, the democratic senatorial
nominee.
Republican state headquarters to
night declined to comment on the
day's developments. The party lead
ers had frowned upon Brewer's can
didacy when it was announced, and
said they did not wish to comment
on his withdrawal. Nor would they
speculate upon its effect upon the
election, declaring the extent of
Brewer's following was problematical.
Praises Steck.
Steck, In recent campaign speeches,
has made a special appeal to repub
licans who dislike Senator Brook
hart's repudiation of the Coolidge
Dawes ticket. To this today was
added the statement by Brewer, that
S,eck had taken "the right position”
on what he termed two of the chief
Issues raised In the present campaign
—the authority of the courts and
government ownership of railroads.
The Brewer withdrawal was prompt
ed to some extent, politicians here i
believe, by the criticism of Senator
Brookheart by Steck in a speech »t j
Burlington last night in which the!
latter made public an affidavit credit-]
ed td A1 Fink of Buffalo, N. Y.. pur
porting to show Irregular practices
on the part of the Daugherty inves
tigating committee, of which Brook
harti s the head. 'The implication has
been denied by the senator.
Senator Brookhart’s comment on
Brewer's withdrawal was;
"I am sorry to hear it. It shows
that the 'standpatters’ will not stand
together. I was In hopes Brewer's
randldncy would enable them to take
a census in tha forthcoming elec
tion."
Brewer, in announcing his with
drawal, declared there was "only one
thing for a true republican to do;
to cast his vote for the democratic
candidate, a man who we know i>os
sesses patriotic Ideas of government."
Two Dangerous Issues.
"On two very dangerous proposi
tions." he declared, ‘‘Brookhart and
La Follette are one. The issues are
abolition of thq supreme court and
governmento wnership of railroads.
I’atrlotic and loyal citizens are j
against both these dangerous propo
sitions.
"While It is difficult for many con- '
sciontloua republicans to' vote to send
a democrat from Iowa to the United !
States senate, yet they thank (Jod ,
that there is in the state a democrat
who is fundamentally sound on both
issues. Publicly and privately, Steck
has taken fhe right position on these
questions, and 1 have no hesitancy in
advocating his election.
"Brookhart.” Brewer continued,
"has repudiated and betrayed the re
publican party and Its leaders. He
has Insulted members of the party,
yet he refuses to yield his place on
the republican ticket to a real re
publican. lie does not possess s
shred of political honesty."
Whether Brewer or any of his po
litical supporters will aid the demo
cratic nominee In his campaign was
not known here tonight.

Cunning of

Big Factor
Washington Wins Final Game
and Series by Score of 1
to 3; 12 Innings Needed
to Break Tie.
Capitol Fans Go Wild
By DAMON KIN YON.
I tiltemul SMTt iee Staff ( oitrapoadeiit.
Griffith Stadium. Washington, Oct.
10. — Horray! Hooray! Hooroope!
That’s the voice of Washington as
well as type can express it, scream
ing to the nation that she and Wal
ter Johnson have come into their
baseball own.
They've Just won the world series
of 1924 here—Washington and Walter
Johnson—and don't forget Stanley
Harris, Earl McNeeley and "Muddy”
Ruel and the rest of the boys and
they're still trying to split the ear
drum of the U. S. A. yelling over
it. They whipped the mighty New
York Giants by a score of 4 to 3
after 12 terrific Innings, in the
seventh and deciding game of the
series late th.s afternoon, with ‘‘Bier
Barney” pitching them on to glorious
victory.
That's why the blood pressure of
the citizens of Washington is at this
moment without doubt the highest
ever registered by medical science
among the peoples of any race. Apo
plexy is almost epidemic. Heart
trouble is a common complaint.
Seven women fainted simultaneous
ly as- young Earl McNeely, tint
Washington center fielder, brought
' Muddy” Ruel home with the win
ning run in the 12th after one men
was out. Ruel, the little catcher,
who hadn't got but one hit since
the series started, and that a dinky
infield thing earlier in the game, had
doubled. ,Walter Johnson, who had
come into the game in the eighth in
ning, relieving the troubled Marber
ry, was also on the base paths at the
time, placed there by an error by
young Travis Jackson.
_ Senators Flee.
McNeely s hit bounded over the
head at 18-year-old Freddy Llndstrom
at thind, and on into left field.
Strangely enough, a drive by Stanley
Harris, the Washington manager,
earlier In the game had taken Just
such a. bound and brought In the
runs that tied the sc<#e for the home
club As Ross Young retrieved the
tail hit by McNeely in deep left, and
came walking In with it In his hand,
because it was useless to attempt to
cut down the speeding Ruel, most of
the 33.009 fans in the stands and
bleachers went boiling out onto the
field. The Washington players had
to f!ee for their very lives. They
sensed the riot of Joy rolling across
the field and turned and rushed tar
their tunnel—like men seeking the
safety of a cyclone cellar.
The president of the United States
watched their hasty retreat for a
moment from his box near the Wash
ington bench. He had been stand
ing up most of the time during the
last inning, as excited as any small
boy in the distant bleachers. He too,
just escaped the tornado of gladness
that went sweeping after the players.
Johnson just barely escaped.
Frantic fingers were grabbing at his
sweater as he went through the tun
nel. Stanley Harris, the 27-year-old
manager of the new- world cham
pions, was fairly hurled through the
little opening by the rush. Nick Al
trock. the famous baseball clown of
Washington, and some of the ether
players, had dashed out on the field
to be first to welcome Ruel. They
were leaping high in the air and .veil
ing. Then they had to .fight their
way bayjt through the mob in front
of the Washington bench. Hats,
cushions and torn newspapers rained
on the field, nigntfled looking men
were tearing one another s clothes in
the Jam, every face was beaming, ar. 1
every throat was pouring out a
screech.
Johnson Is Cheered.
The beaten Giants made a con
certed rush for the Washington
bench and the tunne! hnd they were
soon being tossed around in the
crowd Hke bits of driftwood tn a
running stream. Some of them hid
| a hard time getting out. They did
j not even wait to gather up their
l*»ts, and friendly Washington police
j men finally lugged the sticks to the
I dressing room.
The crowd remained on the geld,
gathered about the Washington
| l-ench for an hour after the game, a
coterie of eolf-appointed cheer lead
ers standing on the roof of the dug
out and suggesting cheers for every
thing and evert body connected with
the Washington club, from Glsrk Grif
fith, the old silver fox. who is presi
dent of the club, down to the bstboy.
