Smith to defend record as Smith faces White charges
The piece outlines Governor Smith's planned response to charges by White, aiming to rebut claims about his moral record and to present a strong defense ahead of his presidential nomination acceptance. It notes delays to refine the argument, expectations of a bitter rebuttal, and key events around Albany, Camp Sea Girt, and New Jersey scheduling before his New York appearance. It also covers Butler's break with Hoover over Prohibition and disarmament, urging repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment and criticizing enforcement as lawlessness.
