Six treaties to further the cause ot South Safe, Democratic Chief Told By Daniels Governor Also Confers With Senator From Georgia. D. HAROLD OLIVER. AiiocUted Fren Staff Writer, ALBANY, N. Aug.

16.The South, in the opinion of Josephus Daniels, is. safe for Governor Smith even though there is some "unrest" there. The North Carolina publisher and supporter of the Glass dry plank at Houston, made this prediction In an interview with newspapermen just before going Into conference yesterday with the Democratic presidential ni Mice. Governor Smith today was as to continue his discussions with dry leaders of his party with the arrival of Senator George, of" Georgia, an opponent of Smith for the nomination. REPLY PREPARED FOR EDITOR'S Governor Smith announced today that he was preparing a reply to the attack made on his record as an assemblyman by William Allen White, Kansas editor, but that the cablegram made public In New York denying that White had re tracted any of his charges probably would necessitate some change in his rejoinder.

"I was preparing a reply to White," the- governor said, "but the situation took a new turn by the release cJCJhe cablegram by the RcpuNiaauSSAtlonnl Committee." This cablegram, from the Emporia editor to Henry J. Allen, pub licity director of the Republican campaign, included a statement that had. not iretracted charges against Smith in connec tion with gambling and organized i r-' A conference tomorrow with Sen ator Walsh of who with drew from the race for the nomina tion after the California primaries and announced his support of Smith, will end the series of dential discussions with prominent drys that the presidential candidate had personally arranged for. the period preceding the notification ceremony. DANIELS SURE SMITH WILL ENFORCE LAW.

Daniels asserted the South, as he sized- up the situation, Would- remain solidly Democratic IniNovem-ber despite the fact that some were opposing Smith there on-his prohibition stands He reiterated that he would stand by the ticket "from constable to and expressed belief that Smith would be taken at his word when he said he would faithfully enforce the law. While again expressing regret over Smith's message to the Houston convention declaring for more liberal enforcement laws, Daniels said he did not believe tills was repudiations! the Democratic 1 a 6 1 he thought adequately "met the situation." The secretary of the navy under President Wilson denied published reports that those opposing Smith in North Carolina were doing so because of his religion. "These reports are doing the people of my state a great injus tice," he declared. "Some may be opposed to the governor on those grounds, but the great bulk, of those opposing him are doing so because they are dry." 100,000 MAJORITY SEEN IN CAROLINA He said that undoubtedly much depended upon what Smith said on the Eighteenth amendment and Volstead act in his speech of ac ceptance next Wednesday night Wni1 predicted that if the address nnt 1 tnn tha crn.r. is not any molster" than the gov ernor previously expressed views he would carry North by a hundred thousand majority.

"I think Smith will enforce the law," he said, adding that reports already had reached him from his state of unfavorable, reaction to -Hoover's references to law enforcement in Ms acceptance speech "because he lias given no assurances or promised better things except to say he would not nullify the Eighteenth amendment." He said he believed the Demo cratic platform in this respect was more specific and when the people considered enforcement conditions under the Republican administra tion they would think twice before throwing their support to Hoover. Denouncing "corruption" at Washington, the Raleigh publisher said a change was needed to fr.ee the people not only from the "domination' of the interests. but the crooks as-. well," lik ened past and present enforcement conditions to brought about by leasing of the naval oil reserve, over which he once had supervision. He could not remember "a big crime" ever having been com ment under (the "distiller" at Its head, he assejrted, was just as bad.

Asked if he referred to Secretary Mellon, Daniels said Tie did and added that enforcement of the dry law under him. was only "spasmodic and honeycombed with corruption, with ofHce-Niolders flouting the law." i Roy Champmatt Andrews Comes Out of Gobi Desert With Strarrge BY ASSOCIATED PHESS -T LEASED WIRE TO TRIBUNE PEKING, Aug. 16.
