Judge Cordell Hull, chairman of the
democratic national committer, to
niiflit reviewed fhe republican ad
ministration since" March and coiu-
jiared this with the "unparalleled
achievement" of the democrats in the
previous eiRfit years.
The address was delivered at a
dinner Kiven by the sUatc democratic
executive coinmittce m honor of
Chairman Hull. It was -accepted gen
erally as the opening of the con
Kressional pre-election tampaign by
the new chairman, who ent into the
public questions which he said faced
the government and explained the
attitude his party would take.
Further relief for farmers, adequate
aid for veterans, reduction tit taxes
and a remedy tor the situation re
sulting from the Hood of tax exempt
securities were among issues he out
lined. Friends of Ex-Soldiers.
"Democrats are the loyal and con
sistent friends of the ex-service men,"
he declared.
"F.ver solocitous of their welfare,
the democratic party, when in power,
did more to advance the interests of
farmers than had been done in all
the previous history of the nation
and had planned to do much more
if it had remained in power," he
said.
"Urcrent and deserved relief as to
farm credits, better and cheaper
warehousing; and marketing facilities
these and like measures of aid
should have been given to avoid and
relieve the present unparalleled dis
tress.
"The burden of our public debt
should be adjusted so as not to be
oppressive to the American tax
naver 1-ihnriiic under panic condi
tions. the states, rather than the
federal government, should be urged
to deal by a uniform policy, with
the crrnwitlff evi 1 of local tax ex
empt securities."
Results of the last national elec
tion, he asserted, were secured by
"criminal malignity and reckless
falsehood" by the republican leaders.
People Suffer Losses.
"It was not so much the demo
cratic party; it was the American
people who have suffered the colossal
and incalculable losses that resulted
from democratic defeat," lie declared.
"It i beyond the power of whole
sale abuse, falsehood and detraction
long to dim the glory of the eight
years unparalleled achievement of the
national democracy. The work of
constructive, patriotic statesmanship
accomplished by that party will stand
out in clearer perspective during the
coming years." .
"If w holesale breach oi solemn and
unqualified promises to the people

said, "every, reactionary republican
leader, state and national, would, un
der a pica of guilty, be in the custody
of the law tonight.
"The disappointed farmer now
.reads the accounts of his industrial
ruin by the light of his burning corn.
Millions of losers are frequenting
the souphouscs, breadlines and auction
block. Business has discovered that
it was crucified on the cross of poli
tics."
Big Slump in Business.
Under republican leadership, he
said, American foreign commerce
"has slumped $6,000,000,000 in the
last 12 months," and an "almost verti
cal slump in prices in America from
.10 to 50 per1 cent and in pur
ehasintr oower of farm pro
ducts, of 66 per cent quick
ly followed." For two years prior
to March. 1921. he said, the only
remedy offered by republican leaders
for post-war conditions was "an anti
auated high tariff and the archaic
doctrine of commercial isolation."
"The country is in sad and urgent
need, he said, ot more education
and more co-operation on the part of
the individuals and business with re
spect to our public affairs. An in
tellizent understanding and whole
hearted co-operation on their part
would soon improve the government
100 oer cent.
The democratic party, he said, still
holds to its belief in a tariff for
revenue only, for economy in govern
mental expenditures, for "equal rights
to all and special privileges to none."
"The recent democratic administra
tion has not yet received credit for
its many great accomplishments, he
said, "but whatever its defamors niav
say, even the school children will
soon learn that in 1912 our national
wealth was $187,000,000,000 and in
1920, when the republican admimstra
tion was chosen, it was $330,000,000,
POO: in 1911 our loreign trade was
$3,850,000,000 and in 1920 it was ?13,-
500,000,000."

Denver, Dec. 28. All precedent in
Catholic church custom in Colorado
was broken hrre w hen erner '..
Kced, jr., and Gladys Quentell were
united in marriage in the Cathedral
ot the immaculate U3nccption ty
Key. Father. O'Dwyer,
Reed is the son of tlie late Vcrner
Z. Reed, one of Denver's wealthiest
men. Miss Quentell is a former
resident of New York City.
Young Reed is a Protestant and
his bride is a member of the Catholic
faith, and the so-called "mixed mar
riage" before the altar of a Roma i
Catholic church has created extensive
comment. .
Today's ceremony, according to
prominent Catholics, marks an inno
vation in ecclesiastical procedure in
the Catholic diocese of Colorado. . It
has been generally understood that no
Catholic can marry one outside the
fafth without a special dispensation.
This dispensation, it is said, has never
previously permitted of the contract
ing parties being united within the
portals of the church. A "mixed
marriage" may be performed by ' a
priest of the church in the home or
in the sacristy of the church, but not
before the altar, according-to rules
laid down by Catholic clergy.
In explaining the situation, Bishop
J. Henry Tihcn, D. D.. of the Col
orado Catholic diocese, issued the
following statement:
"The Reed family asked the priv
ilege of having the ceremony per
formed in the Cathedral of the Jm
maculate Conception, and in appre
ciation and gratitude I saw fit to
grant the request.
"Mr. Reed is not a Catholic, and
the procedure allowing the 'mixed
marriage' before the altar in the
cathedral is against church custom.
J he dispensation, however, was
granted in appreciation of the great
gifts given this parish by the bride
groom's father, the late Verner Z.
Keed, who was not a Catholic at the
time the gifts were made, although
he died a member of the faith,
"We expect much from a Catholic,
but from a man not a member of our
church we have no right to expect
anything, and Mr. Reed was lavish
in his assistance to the cathedral.
"The man or the community that
can show no appreciation and no
gratitude is, indeed, to be pitied.
They are beautitul things.'
Young Reed resigned from Yale
university two months ago upon the
announcement of his engagement to
Miss Quentell.
Sad Christmas Becomes Joyful
Body of 'Father' That ot Stranger
New York, Dec. 28. For a few days prior to Christmas it looked like
a sad Yulctide for James Crowder, a' painter living on West Tenth street.
He received a telephone call that his father had been hit by a taxicab in
Krooklyn and taken to a hospital, lie dropped his brushes and l;urned to
the hospital. . ,
"Too ill to be seen," was the an
swer at the hospital.
Crowder the next day was in
formed that his father had . passed
away. At the hospital he was re
fused permission to view the body.
However, he" arrainged for a big fu
neral. All the immediate family was
informed of the time of the burial
service.
One of the daughters approached
the bier to view for the last time her
father. She lifted her black veil,
faltered a step and then shrieked and
fainted.
The son, Jim, then approached the
casket. He peered lino the velvet
lined box. lie looked first at the
minister with the Bible opened and
ready to proceed.
"What does this mean?" he asked.
"That man is not my father."
A sweeper at the hospital ward
where Jim's dad was resting from
his injury, accidentally knocked off
the number on his bed. In replac
ing it she placed it on the wrong
bed. The elder Crowder got well
and enjoyed a happy Christmas with
his family.

carriers lie limited to a displacement
ot j.tiuo tons, with guns not cx
cceding eight inches in caliber.
7. Proposal made and informally
agreed to, that the use of submarines
against commerce be barred, the
proposal taking the form of the fol
lowing resolution drafted by Elihu
Koot:
"l'he signatory powers desiring to
make more effective the rules adopt
ed by civilized nations for the pro
tection of the lives of neutrals and
noncombatants at sea in time of
war, declare that among those rules
the following are to be deemed an
established part of international law:
"1. A merchant vessel must be
ordered to stop for visit and search
to determine its character before it
can be captured.
"A merchant vessel must not be
attacked unless it refuses to stop for
visit and search after warning.
"A merchant vessel must not be
destroyed unless the crew and pas
sengers have been first placed in
safety.
Submarines Not Exempt.
"2. Belligerent submarines are
not under any circumstances exempt
from the universal rules, and if a
submarine cannot capture a mer
chant vessel in comformity with
these rnles, the existing law of na
tions requires it to desist from at
tack and from capture and to per
mit the merchant vessel to proceed
tfnmolested.
"The signatory powers invite the
adherence of all other civilized pow
ers to the foregoing statement of
established law, to the end that there
may be a clear public understanding
throughout the world of the stan
dards of conduct by which the public
opinion of the world is to pass judg
ment upon future belligerents. ,
' "The signatory powers recognize
the practical impossibility of using
submarines as commerce destroyers
without violating the requirements
universally accepted by civilized na
tions tor the protection ot the lives
of neutrals and non-combatants, and
to the end that the prohibition of
such use shall be universally accept
ed as a part of the law of nations,
they declare their asent to such pro
hibition and invite all other nations
to adhere thereto. r, ,
"The signatory powers, desiring
to insure the enforcement of the hu
mane rules declared by them with
respect to the prohibition of the use
of submarines in warfare, further de
clare that any persons in the service
of any powers adonting these rules
who, shall violate any of the rules
thus 'adopted, whether or not such
person is under orders of a govern-1

Childe Asks Questions.
C. F. Childe of the Omaha Cham
her of Commerce pointed out that
when the old Nebraska Telephone
company was absorbed bv die North
western it had $11,000,000 in .stock
outstanding on which the company
was paying 7 per cent, against the
4.1.1 per cent at present.'
"I suppose the public must ante
again in a short time for Ihc increase
of $2,000,000 or $.1,000,000 for the
new phone system in Omaha, he
said, "so as to make suitable divi
dends." Then the company had its inning
for a few minutes. L. G. Woodford.
cost engineer, took the stand and de
clared that if the public desired to
take the reproduction cost for the
Nebraska holdings, instead of the
book value of $16,292,761.07, it would
find that the company would be de
manding dividends on a plant from
40 to 50 per cent higher. Woodford
has never figured the reproduction
cost of the Nebraska holdings, but
he has those in Minnesota and based
his estimate on his Minnesota experience.
State Is Interested.

"It is not only unjust, but it is '
poor business for the company to try j

Keep Duty on Hides,
Shoe inannftictiircrs were given to
understand by Acting Chairman Mc
Cumber that hides would not be on
the free li-t when ' the permanent
tariiT bill is reported to the senate.
Charles F., Jours of Whitman,
Mass., representing the National
Hoot and Shoe Manufacturers' as
sociation, declared that the result of
a duty on hide.-, would be to place
control of the shoe industry into the
hands of the big meat packers with
out any benefit heingi derived bv the
cattle raisers. Senators apparently
did not agree with this conclusion.
Through John S. Kent of Brock
ton, Mass., the manufacturers' asso.
nation asked for a 15 per crnt duty
on shoes and boots, declaring that
this was necessary to equalize differ
ence in labor costs in the United
State and foreign countries.
Members of the committee sug
gested that there be a duty on hides
with a compensatory rate on shoes,
but Mr. Jones declared there could
be no compensatory duty. He as
serted that with an import duty im
posed foreign manufacturers could
buy hides in the American market
cheaper than the domestic manufac

business ot the American manufac
