COOLIDGE ELECTION
MS DO NOTHING
policy. SAYS DAVIS
NEW YORK, Nov. I.—ln the
fifth statement of the series, being
issued by John W. Davis. Demo
cratic candidate for president, for
j lie purpose of summarizing cam
paign issues it was claimed to<|ay
that “the country will elect a con
gress pledged to progress and reme
dial liberal legislation.”
The statement further declares
that Senator I.a Follette has no
chance of election and adds that “it
is evident that President Coolidge
has not been and will not be in ac
cord with '.he purposes of such a
, congress as it is said will be elected.”
The statement said:
.“During the campaign I have at
tempted to discuss the issues before
us with the greatest frankness and
'sincerity. I have done my utmost
to make my position on all the ques
tions of the day clear cut. I have
pledged myself, if elected, to do
everything within my power to open
up the markets of the world for our
products, as the business men of our
country can not hope for real and
durable prosperity on any other
kbasis. AS manufacturers and mer
chants can not prosper unless the
farmers prosper, I have promised to
exert my every effort to raise agri
culture to a plane of equality with
our other great industries. Business
can not prosper while idleness, pov- <
erty and discontent exist among our
wage earners and salaried men and
L women, who constitute the great
bulk of the buying public. So I have
pledged myself to continue the Dem
ocratic policy of strengthening the
position of labor.
“None of these things can be ac
complished without honesty and
courage, in government and complete
accord and co operation between the
president and congress-
“There is no doubt that the coun
try will elect a congress pledged to
progress and remedial liberal legis
lation. It is admitted now that Sen
ator La Follette has no chance of
election. It is evident that President
Coolidge has not been and will not
be in accord with its high purposes.
Vetoes and Obstruction
"Do the people want legislation or
do they want vetoes and obstruction
and four years of deadlock between
the president and congressZ
“From the many expressions which
are coming in from all classes from
every state and from the indorse
ments received from various organi
zations and from members of all par
ties, I am convinced that the people
do want remedial legislation, that
.they do desire harmonious relations
between congress and the president
and that they realize that they can
assure these things only by voting
at this election for the state and na
tional candidates of the Democratic
party.”
Mr. Davis made the charge last
night in a speech that the Repub
lican -party was trying to buy the
election. lie read the letters of Jo
seph R. Grundy, who raised $650,000
in Pennsylvania and contrasted what
called the sprit of materialism
which collected money t:om protect
ed manufacturers with the spirit of
idealism shown in a letter of a “Gold
Star Mother” who her dead
son’s insurance check to th# Demo-*
cratic campaign fund.
He read freely from the letter of
Mr. Grundy, which already had been
public by testimony before the
Borah investigating committee.
These letters urged Pennsylvanians
to contribute to the Republican cam
paign fund on the ground that they
had profited greatly under the Re
publican administration. |
“Receive freely and give freely,”
Mr. Davis paraphrased the Scrip
tures in comment.
Son’s Insurance .Check
"I have another letter enclosing a
check,” he said. “The check is from
the treasurer of the United States
paid through the Veterans’ bureau.
The check is a small one, especially
when contrasted with the $650,000
collected by Mr. Grundy. It is for
$57.80 and the sender makes no men
tion of sacrifices, such as Me.
Grundy in his letters said he and
subscribers for his fund were mak
ing for the Republican party.
“The letter reads as follows:
“ ‘Mansfield, 0., Oct. 28, 1924.
“ ‘Janies W. Gerard, Treasurer Dem
ocratic Committee, New York:
“ ‘Sir: I enclose the insurance
check of my dead son toward the
fund for Mr. Davis’ campaign. He
would have sent it.
"I don’t know, what you would
♦hoose,” Mr. Davis said, “but I
would choose that check, small’es it
may be, against all the money that
could bb collected from protected
manufacturers and possessors of
privilege to preserve their power to
plunder their fellow citizens.”
FOUR BIG ISSUES
1 FOR VOTERS ARE
NAMED BY DAVIS
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—Clean
government, tax and tariff reform,
farm relief and a proper foreign pol
icy were named by John W. Davis
in a message to the Davis victory
club rallies in progress tonight as
the four issues to be decided in
Tuesday’s election.
The message was made public by
Democratic headquarters, which de
clared its reports indicated that more
than ten thousand such rallies were
being held throughout the country.
It follows:
“My fellow citizens:
“The forces which represent the
once great Republican party are
panic stricken and hopelessly divid
ed, one group of men representing
the east and the other group repre
senting the west. The Democratic
► is marching this year with a
Irai mony and a solidarity that has
never been surpassed.
“The democracy of the nation can
decide th* Issue. The normal Demo
cratic vote will win for us a vic
tory a<s great as that secured by the
normal Democratic vote in 191". Tt
Is of the utmost importance, there
fore. that every worker appear next
Tuesday on the fighting line.
“Four issues are to be decided
’ljuesday:
“(1) Whether our government is
worth keeping clean and honest:
“(2) Equitable reduction of taxa
tion, and abolition of the criminal
Imposition on the people of the Unit
'd States of an iniquitous tariff
c.l for the benefit of the privi
'eged classes:
*’(3) Practical relief for the farm
»rs;
”14) Determination of the place the
United States is to take in interna
tional affairs.
“We ask the American people
vhether they are satisfied or dis
•atisfied with conditions in this
tountry.”

Harry Hal Ehrig, the “Bundle,” shown coriducting the orchestra

Becomes Composer, Painter
and Writer After Accident
Leaves His Body Only
“Bundle of Bones”
BY ROY J. GIBBONS
CHICAGO, Nov. I.—Tomorrow
again, frorrt the same green-shutter
ed house they will carry out the
“bundle” that smiles.
Tomorrow, again, as on the mor
rows that have come and gone for
15 years, on the hattie line they will
set the “bundle down.
There the “bundle” with his para
lytic limbs and twisted body fights
cheerfully. Fights for food, for
warmth and, a little happiness, too.
perhaps.
The “bundle’s name Is Harry Hal
Ehrig. He is 31.
Once his body was whole and
sound. Today he can move but one
arm.
All the rest of him is dead. Every
thing save his brain and that smile
that won’t rub off-
Blessing in Disguise
He thinks the world a. pretty fine
place to live 'in. Yet he never sees
much of it it except when they prop
him ttp beside a window or carry
hint? beyond little green-shuttered
house.
Before he Vetame a “bundle” he
was just pno of the milling multi
tflde of a big city. Then a motor
cycle accident put him “luckily,” he
says, to bed “to think.”
He has been an invalid ever since.
Vital nerves have been torn from his
back.
“But it was a blessing in dis
<tuse,’\he says.
Think of that!.
What Ehrig has done since fate
overtook him could shame thou
sands of able-bodied men. Through
his own efforts he earns a six-fig
ured fortune yearly.
Musician, Painter, Writer
Thi& he does through his orches
tra —the Blue Demons —which he di
rects and personally supervises.
Also he writes movie scenarios,
composes successful*song hits, and
paints pictures that have attracted
attention from celebrated artists.
Before the accident Ehrig was just
one of 3,000,000 people. No one, save
his friends, ever had heard him.
Today he is a person of impor
tance. He has built up an indomi
table courage. The smile that won’t
.rub off stays with him.
It even refused to go a month ago
when misfortune added still further
to*his cup of sorrow—when his step
father shot and killed the "bundle’s”
mother and then committed suicide.
“It’s a. Fine World” 4
"I do not wish to think of that,”
says Ehrig. *
“Life is too short for sorrow. There
is so much to be done.
“Before my accident I just drifted
along. I knew nothing about paint
ing, music or writing. They have
come to me since as pleasures.
“And many people are like me.
They never find themselves until the
crisis.'
“I a hmappy to be here. I am glad
to see the sunshine. This is a good
world.
“Believe me when I say that. For
I have lain here long enough to find
out.”
This from a man tliit is a “bun
dle.” This from a “bundle” that has
made good.
Think of him when you are sad.
Tomorrow he will be going out of
the green shuttered house again for
the battle line.
Frank 0. Lowden
Will. Talk Here
On Farm Markets
Frank O. Lowden, former governor
of Illinois, one of the leading candi
dates for the Republican presiden
tial nomination in 1920, and an out
standing exponent of co-operative
marketing of farm products, will
speak in Atlanta on November 17,
according to announcement Satur
day by officials of the Georgia Cot
operative Cotton Growers’ associa
tion, under whose auspices he will
appear here.
The former governor will deliver
his address in the hall of the house
of representatives at the state Capi
tol. at 11 o'clock in the morning.
He is scheduled to speak before
the annual convention of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy in Sa*

I CANDIDATES CONFIDENT
AS CAMPAIGN ENDS IN
BLAZE OF FIREWORKS
(Continued From Page 1)
Roosevelt and Governor Alfred E.
Smith today withdrew to the side
lines and awaited the voters’ de
cision.
With both Republican and Demo
cratic managers claiming victory by
a wide margin, both sides admitted
that upon the up-state vote hung
settlement of the issue.
The Up-state Vote
In 1920 Smith had a plurality in
New York City of 319,898, which
jumped in 1922 to 479,213. If, as
many believe, the governor wins the
city this year by 400,000, the up-state
vote, which it is believed will be of
record proportions, must swing Re
publican by a larger margin than
in 1920 if Roosevelt is to be elected.
Four years ago Miller rolled up a
plurality of 393,946 outside of the
city; two years later it was decreased
to 33,275. In this memorable fight
Smith carried 13 counties above the
Bronx.
Around these 13—Albany, Erie
Hamilton, Monroe, Montgomery,
Oneida, Onondaga. Rennselaer, Rock
land, Saratoga, Schenectady, Sulli
van and Westchester—centers the
basis of this year’s fight. If the
Roosevelt forces can swing back into
' line these normally Republican coun-
I ties, there is every indication of a
l Republican victory. Should Smith,
i on the other hand, keep this list in
! back of him, or increase it in any
' way, the governor is almost as-
I sured of reelection.
Since all of these counties are
j largely rural and agricultural in pop-
I ulation, Republican leaders believe
; their candidate’s dry stand will win
| them back into the G. O. P. column.
■ They admit the hardest contests will,
; he in Albany, Saratoga, Schenctady,
Sullivan and Westchester counties.
F.oosevelt went to his hom’e in Oys
ter Bay, today,/where he is expected
to remain until after the election.
It is possible” he will make a short
address to his neighbors tomorrow
in an informal meeting.
Governor Smith was at home, en-
I joying a restful day, in which he
i planned to receive no political vis-1
I itors. Tomorrow it is believed he
will confer with party leaders. (

RALEIGH, N. C., Nov. 2.—(By the
l Associated Press.)— the Demo
cratic campaign in North Carolina
formally closed Saturday' and the
Republican and progressive cam
paigns closing tonight, political lead
ers and workers throughout the

ends of their work together.

ments on the outlook. Chairman

party, asserted that the usual Demo
cratic; majority would be rolled up;
W. G. Branham. Republican state
chairman in a statement issued from
Durham declared that “the day has
passed when the vote can be count
ed before it has been cast and it is
no longer possible to forecast the
vote along previous political align
ments.”
C. P. Barringer, chairman for the
La Follette - Wheeler organization
from Greensboro issued a statement,
charging that misrepresentation
had been used in the campaign
against the progressive party but de.
claring that the “momentum of this
independent movement is gaining
daily.”
Registration throughout the state
is reported to have shown a marked
increase this year and a strenqpus
effort is being made to bring out as
nearly' the full vote as possible.
Democratic Chairman Dawson this

ENGINEER TRAVELS
HALF ROUND WORLD
TO BE Dll WITNESS
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Nov. 2. —
Traveling almost half .way around
the world to spend two hours on
the witness stand in the govern
ment’s suit to break the Elk Hill
naval reserve oil leases, Gano Dann,
president of the J. G. White engi
neering corporation, was again
speeding eastward on an overland
train early today.
From Berne, Switzerland, where
he is supervising a construction pro
ject for his company, Dunn came
to Los Angeles to appear in the trial.
He spent only two hours on the wit
ness stand Saturday and immediate
ly started on the return journey.
The government called Dunn as
prosecuting witness and then did
not put him on the stand. After
the prosecution closed its case, the
defense claimed Dunn. During the
short session of the trial yesterday,
he revealed details of the subcon
tract under svhich his firm is con
structing naval oil storage facilities
at Pearl Harbor, Honolulu, in con
nection with the Pan-American and
Transport company’s contract for
the work.
The White company first wanted
to bid directly on the oil tank con
struction, Dunn said, but his fel
low officers objected. Later, he
stated, he was introduced by 11. Fos
ter Bain, director of the United
States bureau of mines, to Joseph J.
Cotter, vice president of the Pan-
American Petroleum and Transport
company.
A series of conferences resulted
in which it was agreed that Doheny
would submit the bid for the en
tire project, employing the Whit<
company to do the actual construc
tion work.
The bid of the Pan-American com
pany, which was accepted, Dunn
said, eliminated any profit for the
Doheny interests other than that
for transporting 1,500,000 barrels of
fuel oil to 'fill the tanks. The gov
ernment has been saved $466,000 to
date on Ctie work, the witness stated.
The additional storage order for
tanks to hold 2,700,000 barrels of
oil at Pearl Harbor is 95 per cent
complete, Dunn said. The cost will
approximate $4,000,000.
No progress photos of the work
have been taken by the White com
pany, Dunn said. In fact, all photos
taken Jsy the naval department have
been closely censored.
The trial was continued until next

La Follette Meeting
Interrupted by Row;
Police Called Out
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. I.—A riot
call was sent .to police headquarters
tonight when disorder became ram
pant at a meeting of La Follette-
Wheeler supporters in the Labor
Temple.
J. J. Fineran, head of the inde
pendent movement in Louisiana, was
in the midst of a speech when a
man who said he was Dr. James
Anderson, of New York, and repre
sentative of an intelligence bureau,
snecializing in industrial \work,
charged that Fineran was a bolshe
vist and mounted the platform to
present alleged documentary evi
dence to that effect. Anderson got
only far enough to announce he was
prepared to prove the charge, and
was removing papers from his
pocket, when Gus Bienvenue, sec
retary of the Street Car Workers’
union, rushed forward and attempt
ed to strike him. The hall seethed
with excitement while Anderson,
holding Bienvenue off with one
arm. attempted to continue his re
marks. Some one informed police
headquarters a riot was in progress,
and every spare policeman and de
tective in the First precinct re
sponded. Anderson was arrested.

$15,000,000 FUND
IS CHARGED TO G. 0. P.
BY SLUSH PROBERS
(Continued from Page 1)
after the election, Chairman Borah
said, “but not immediately after.”
A telegram was received today by '
Senator Borah from Frank P.
Walsh, in New York, as counsel for I
the La Follette organization, regard- I
ing the committee statements, but ;
the chairman said he did not expect
to reply to the message.
Earlier 'ln the day Walsh issued a
statement from his office here say
ing that an analysis of th» evidence
produced at the committee hearings |
showed that at least 75 per cent of |
the Republican contributions report- I
ed to date “have come directly from ;
representatives of great corporate !
interests.”
The La Follette attorney declared .
further that “upon the basis of the i
data now made public, it can be ■
stated as a fact that the banking
firm of J. P. Morgan y- Co. has un
derwritten the Republican cam
paign fund.” s
BORAH WARNED AGAINST
DELUGE OF G. O. P. MONEY
NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—Frank P.
Walsh, counsel for Senator La Fol
lette has sent a telegram to Chair
man Borah, chairman of the cam
paign expenditures committee, re
garding the last-minute statement
the has stated it would is
sue on the eve of elecWon. The tele
gram follows:
“Papers carry report that you in
tend to issue a last minute statement,
as to the amount of the campaign
fund. The testimony in Washington
during your absence developed huge
sums unreported in the hands of lo
cal treasurers, state chairmen arid
local committees. Estimates given
show that in some places the amount
in the hands of local committees and
treasurers for the election of the
straight Republican ticket equalled,
if not exceeded, the amount collect
ed by the national Republican com
mittee.
“Collections from postmasters and
federal employes by district collec
tors show large funds on hand. In
formation conveyed to me here indi
cates much larger assessments or
contributions from liquor permittees
that we were able to develop in our
limited time.
“If the collection in western Penn
sylvania run proportionately as high
as those reported hy r Mr. Grundy
Friday that state will exceed one
million dollars or four hundred thou
sand dollars in excess of the estimate
given sou by Chairman Butler.
Relatively the same situation in Mas
sachusetts.
“The nation Is flooded with adver
tisements advocating the election of
the national Republican ticket paid
for by firms and members of corpora
tions. These are but a few of the
facts developed. On behalf of Sena
tor La Follette, I most respectfully |
urge that any statement given out
'should be accompanied by these
fkets.
“I am sure that Senators Carawav
and Bayard also have them well in j
hand. The figures do not take into
account the regular large contribu
tors to the Republican campaign
fund, nor individuals sending money
direct into doubtful states. The
testimony cl-'ariy shows that it Is in
tention of the Republican committee
to collect these at the last moment.
The expenditures up to date and the
statement which might mislead at
the last moment.
“In my opinion eight million, one
hundred thousand dollars collected
four years ago as shown by Senator
Kenyon’s report to the United States
senate will be far exceeded. Please
accept my thanks for your courtesies
and allow me to express my admira
tion for the intelligence and impar
tiality with which the investigation :
was carried on by yourself and col
leagues. ’
