President
Franklin
D.
Roosevelt
spoke'
before
a
huge
audience
in
Madison
Square
Garden
and
was
given
a
cheering
reception.
He
charged
that
a,
campaign
of
hate
had
been
waged
against
him.
He
wai
confident,
however,
of
the
verdict.,
"Let
them
emigrate
and
try
thelf
luck"
under
some
other
flag,"
the
President
exclaimed
in
inswerlng
some
of
his"
critics
who
had
Instanced
the
cases
of
some
other
countries
as
being
better
off
,han
the
United
States.
In
St.
Louis
Governor
Alfred
M.
Landon
of
Kansas,
the
Republican
candidate,
charged
the
administra
tion
with
attempting
to
conceal
that
the
government
was
the
real
ssue
In
this
campaign.
He
charged
Roosevelt
with
endeavoring
to
supplant
"free
Initiative"

E.
Smith
exhorted

if

vote
against-
the

for
Landon.
The
"Happy

charged
Roosevelt
with
exploiting
