Rule, Tariff, Farm Policies Republican Plank On Fi'ohlblUor Termed “Agglomeration Of Snap lumber." Chicago, June 29 — In a keynote speech bristling with denunciation of the Hoover administration. Sen ator Alben W. Barkley Monday urg ed the Democratic national con vention to favor a vote by the peo ple on repealing the eighteenth amendment and called upon the nation to turn the Republicans out of office. Describing the Republican plank on rohlbpltlon as a promiscuous agglomeration of scrap-lumber," the Kentuckian said the Democrats should recommend passage of a congressional resolution repealing the 18th amendment to be voted on hy state conventions chosen solely for that purpose Flay* Hoover Rarklev denounced the Republi oans and President Hoover for the •exhorbltrtnt and Indefensible rotes' nf the Brnoot-Hawley tariff act and promised to "lift- tariff-making above the sordid processes of log rotlers and back-scratchers." He exporta tod the admlnlstro tton's farm policy arid said the Democrats would undertake "to re move from the shoulders of agrt eulttire ft portion of the unnatural bunlen which it bears beeau o others hare been able to shift it ih*re through special legislation in their own b ehalf." Paying- his respects ‘o the Hoover sdmhihtraiton, the kymottr re ■'alled that the president "and lih Bept’bllepu ronercss took charge of the government" on March 4 1932. and e.ddcd Promises Fall, “But rvrrv prediction. every promise. rvsrv assurance made by them tc> obtain votes has turfted to »«hes In their hands, and even i oretrtvp has been exposed in all} Its naked affectation. "Afei'lewtttlre has continued it-'; Collapse Industry has languished beyond any previous record. Credit, has been restricted until finance and productive enterprise are frightened and stagnant and there is constantly marching a greater.' army of unemployed men and wom en in search of honest toil than has ever been experienced by this or anyj nation.'* "There is nothing wrong with this I republic,'* ho added, "except that it j has been mismanaged, exploited and demoralised for more than a de cade by a leadership incomparably shortsighted and bereft of true statesmanship, incapable of under standing and dealing with funda mental causes, and incapable even now In the midst of Its fearful havoc of understanding the extent of Its own mischief." Constitution Supreme Concerning the elghleenth amend ment, Barkley’ aatd "so long as It Is a part" of the constitution "no cit izen of the republic has a legal or moral right to violate it," and add ed. - “Whatever may be the divergent ▼lews of men and women on the merita or demerits of the eighteenth amendment as a national policy. It la inconceivable that this or any other part Of the constitution of the United States should apply to only a part and not the whole of the American nation. That great lnstru ment declares that “this constitu tion and the laws made In pur suance thereof shall be the supreme law of the land.' But tt cannot be the supreme law of the land if It cap be abrogated by the people of a part of the land while renatning tB force over the rest of them. Such a conception destroys the very na ture *tld structure of the constitu tion, for if it can be made'thus to qualify one of it,< provisions it may be made to qualify all of them. This would be the end of the const itu tion itself.
