TEN THE NEOSHO TIMES, OCTOBER 30, 1924 SENATOR REED SPEAKS FOR NATIONAL TICKET (Continued from First Page) will carry from five to nine states. one of these can ordinarily be counted upon to give their electoral votes to a republican candidate for president. Upon the other hand, La Follette will not carry a single democratic state. The democratic forces are standing; solid. The break in the old political forces is in the republican ranks." "Raising the question of the Ku Klux Klan.

tho senator said that Davis, La Follette and even Dawes lias spoken, but "Coolidge is silent because he wants the votes of the Ku Klux Klan." He charged that Coolidge is silent on the Klan "because he places his own election over the vindication of the constitutional rights of the American people." "After all," the senator said, "the great questions involved in this election are economic. They are questions of prices and taxation. The republican party stands for high taxes for the benefit of trusts, for low taxes upon the trusts and combinations A vote for Coolidge is a vote for low taxes upon great incomes. It is a vote for the taxation of all the people for the benefit of the trusts and combinations of America. "A vote for John Davis is a vote against these iniquities.

He stands squarely upon the old democratic and honesty in government and opposition to any privileged class and to the taxation of the people for the benefit of great trusts and combinations."
