Reed is presumed to have cast his hat into the presidential ring, the Missouri solon scathingly indicts what he terms "Republican corruption. The senator is quoted as saying: "On the fourth day of March, 1921, Warren G. Harding was inaugurated president of the United States. On that day corrupt and sinister financial conspiracies, to all intents and purposes, took possession of the government, and have ever since exercised a dominant control. "The first act of Coolidge was to approve the policies of the Hardadministration. Harding appointed, and Coolidge continued at ing the head of the department of justice, Harry M. Daugherty, as vile an insect as ever crawled across the page of time. In the face of the overwhelming evidence Daugherty was retained until the blaze of public indignation grew so hot that Coolidge was obliged to back away from the fire. lie then demanded Daughertys resignation upon an insufficient and immaterial ground. "A senatorial investigation exposed the infamous oil transactions.. In igs efforts to ascertain the facts and bring the criminals to book, the senate committee received no assistance from the Coolidge administration. Coolidge never lifted a hand, ne remained as mum and inactive as a Boston oyster stranded on the beach in the month of August. "Ilarding appointed, and Coolidge to this day retains, Andrew W. Mellon as secretary of the treasury. When Mellon was appointed, the great financial interests no longer exercised a mere influence they moved in and took possession of the fiscal operations of the gov- ernment After paying his respects to "Republican corruption in this manner, Senator Reed proceeds to outline a platform for Democracy as follows: "Let us make our fight beneath banners proclaiming: "The right of each citizen to regulate his own personal conduct, chart his own course through life, and to control the affairs of his own - household. "Let us reassert the truth of the doctrine that: and the "If this people are to remain free, loyal of be must states the federal the ; sovereignty power should preserved be brought within the limits, not only of the letter, but also within the spirit of the constitution; that the march of centralization must be arrested; that government by boards and bureaucracies must nt cease. "Let us demand the honest administration of government; the swift and sure punishment of all public plunderers, bribemongers, and other malefactors; the equalization of the burden of taxation; the repeal of all laws creating special privileges ; the dismissal of an army of spies, snoopers, sneaks and informers ; the liberation of honest' business from oppressive interference by governmental agents; the prosecution and punishment of those who, by trusts, combinations and restraints of trade, make war on honest business and despoil the people.
