HUGHES CONTINUES
HIS OHIO. CAMPAIGN
Candidate for Governor Gets
in Lime Light Interferes
with Program
By Perry Arnold

Omitted Press staff correspondent
Toledo, Ohio, Sept. 26.-Firm OF
voice from nearly two days saving Of
the throat muscles, Republican Nominee
Hughes started his second days inva-
sion of Ohio today in TWO early morn
ing speeches. The republican Buckeye
aroused the candidate before s 'clocs
and which fixed for him five speeches
during the day.
DR.. l.. d. Alexander, Jr., his throat
specialist, was on the job before 8
clock when Hughes made his first
speech at Findlay and was kept busy
during most of the day with sprays and
throat pastilles.
Hughes voice today did not show
any need for the hours which his ply
lssician spent getting him in shape. But
the thing which DIR. Alexander fears
is that Hughes, feeling his voice fairly
clear, will Oyerwork his vocal chords,
Hughes is an impatient patient who
doesn't like to bother with sprays and
gargles when his voice sounds fairly
good.
1t was Amercanism and the tariff
which the G.. o. P. nominee preached
most in his swing northward across
Ohio today. In addition he .dwelt force
| fully on the Adamsou bill cOmpromis'
ing the railroad strike-being given
an enthusiastic reception everywhere.
Willis Gets To the Front
One thing which bothered Hughes
managers on the tour today was the
persistent way in which Governor Will
lis of Ohio, contrived to project him
self into the limelight. In the parade
at Dayton yesterday they pointed out
that the republican gubcrnatorial NOM
| inee stood up in his ear, which follow
ed .ughes in the parade-and took full
advantage of any cheers which Hughes
appearance evoked. Hughes remained
/ seated during this stunt. AT the Day
ton fairgrounds, they also noted that
| Willis spoke the longest of the speak
ers despite efforts to cut him short,
| keeping Hughes waiting TO speak. Al
I the early morning stops today Willis
! also was full in the puvIic glare.

extra speeches made Hughes burden
for the day greatcr-but he was feel

Twenty.nine Killed in Air Raid.

London, Sept. 26.-Twenty.nine per-
sons were killed in last night g Zeppelin
raid on England, the second within As
hours, General French, commander of
the home forces reporteu today.
\ number of small houses were wreck
ed or damaged but the raiders were sue
cessfully driven away from industrial
centers. No damage was done to fac
tories or military establishments.
Seven Zeppelins took part in the raid.
The south, east and northeast counties
and north midlands were attacked, prin-
cipully industrial centers in the latter.
Anti.aircraft guns played upon the
raiders with considerable effectiveness,
despite the fact that none was brought
down. The loss of the two Zeppelins in
Saturday night s raid did not deter tibet
Germans from risking more airships in
bombing attacks, but some British aero
nautic experts believe smaller dirigibles,
instead of the large super-Zeppelins,
which offer splendid targets, will visit
England on future raids.
