Mrs Caspar Whitney of Irvington-on-the-Hudson
N Y formerly first
vice-chairman of the National League
of Women Voters and a member of
Herbert Hoover's committee for Bel-1
gium relief during the war has ac-
cepted the appointment of chairman-
ship of the national committee of in-
dependent "Smith for President" clubs
organized by Mrs Franklin D Roose-
velt chairman of the women's advis-
ory committee of the democratic na-
tional committee
Mrs Whitney who has consistently
voted the republican ticket recently
resigned from the National League of
Women Voters at their convention in
Chicago to work for Governor Alfred
E Smith This will be her first no-
tional democratic vote She support-
ed Secretary Hoover in his candidacy
for the presidential nomination in
1920
Mrs Whitney is now in California
where her girlhood days were spent
and where her grandfather and father
—members of the old Canfield family
-—had a large part in the oil and min-
ing developments
"Governor Smith is not only a good
administrator but he understands the
needs of business and realizes that bus-
iness must flourish if people flourish"
is one of the reasons Mrs Whitney
gave to Mrs Roosevelt when she re-
nounced support of Hoover
''However" she added "he never
forgets that governments exisit — that
men must live and live decently With
him the human being comes first
We need in the White House a
man of Smith's integrity independence
and forthrightness" Mrs Whitney
contends "Governor Smith possesses
an integrity unquestioned even by his
foes If elected he will be as free from
political and other control in national
affairs as he always has been in state
affairs
"If we Americans are to maintain
FAMOUS WAR WORKER our ideals of republican government
BOLTS HOOVER FOR ALftnLd1 emain tru to th principles ea-
Jtablished by our forefathers we are
Mrs Caspar Whitney Accepts the bound to live together in tolerance end
— mutual respect of each other s opin
ions yet never since the days of witch
hunting has thi
such an era ol intolerance as we are
now passing through I cannot help
but feel that the election of Governor
Smith would come nearer laying some
of the ghosts now haunting our citi-
zens than anything else could possibly
do"
When the war biuke out in 1914
Mrs Whitney was visiting her family
in southern California Her immediate
family— Mr Whitney and their two
daughters— were at her home in West- t
cheater county Without hesitancy she
threw herself wholeheartedly into pa-
triotic service and was made chairman I
of the women's division of the Hoover
committee for Belgium relief which
had been organized by the Chamber of
Commerce of Los Angeles Shortly
afterwards she was sent aborad with
Mr Whitney who was also sent into
Belgium by the relief committee
Mrs Whitney immediately became
associated in England with the French
wounded emergency fund a committee
which was distributing hospital sup-
plies to the poorer French hospitals
She returned to this country in
1916 and devoted her time to war
work here She helped to organize the
National League of Women's Service
and later was the chairman of the New
York branch
Since the 'war Mrs Whitney’s inter-

government to thq people
"Our nation is not an agglomeration
of railroads of ships of factories of
dynamos or statistics" he said "It is
a nation of homes a nation of men of
women of children"
For 'all he preached the doctrine of
equal opportunity as "the right of ev-
ery American— rich or poor foreign
or native born irrespective of faith or
color"
"Our purpose is to build in this na-
tion a human society not an economic
system" he said at another point "We
wish to increase the efficiency and pro-
ductivity of our country but its final
purpose is happier homes
"The presidency is more than an ad-
ministrative office It mustbe a sym-
bol of American ideals The high and
lowly must be seen with the same eyes
et in the same spirit It must be the
instrument by which national consci-
ence is livened and it must under the
guidance of the Almighty to interpret
and follow that conscience"
Turning to corruption which he
said had been participated in by indi-
vidual officials and members of both
political parties in national state and
municipal affairs Hoover declared dis-
honesty in government' to be a double
wrong
"It is treason to the state" he said
"It is destructive of self-government
Moral incompetency by those entrust-
ed with government is a blighting wind
upon private integrity There must be
country witnessed no place for cynicism in the creed of
America"
The republican standard hearer
promised that this would be "an hon-
est campaign" with every peny pub-
licly accounted for and a true cam-
paign" with "the use of words to con-
vey our meaning not to hide it"
Other policies outlined by him in-
cluded: A foreign policy dedicated to peace
with the fostering of disarmament but
with the retention meantime of a navy
adequate for national defense
Continuation of a public works pro-
gram — buildings roads waterways and
igation— entailing an expenditure of
$1000000000 in the next four years
A unified plan for carrying forward
this work with the co-ordination where
possible of transportation with flood
control the development of hydro-
electric power and of irrigation and a
larger visioned development of water
esources so they will yield their full
economic service
Retention of the present immigra-
tion laws with amendments to relieve
arcLhips on families and repeal of the
scheme of fixing quotas on the basis
of national origin
Co-operation between government
and buisness with government regula-
history of our country
"He has dignified economy to
principle of government He has
charted the course of our nation and
our party over many yeare to come
It is not only a duty but it is the part
o£ statesmanship that we adhere to this
