HUGE VOTE IS CAST
(By The Associated Press)

Berlin, April 27.-Field Marshal
Won Hindenburgs "front porch"
campaign, conducted from his home
in Hanover, has been successful, and
next week he will be indicted into
office as the first popularity elected
president Of Germany.
The first president, the late Fried
rich Ebert, was named by the Ma
tional Assembly Immediately after
the revolution which established the
Republic, but Won Hindenburg was
chosen by direct vote Of the people.
Running as the choice Of the Ma
tionalist Conservative bloc consist
ing of the parties of the united
right, he received l4,639,399 votes.
or 48.3 per cent of the total valid
ballots cast in yesterdays polling.
He obtained plurality of s36,759
over his principal opponent, former
Chancellor DR.. Wilhelm Marx, can
received l3,752,640 votes.
The race was close from the start,
the two chief candidates running
neck and neck almost until the Of
ficial count.
Won Hindenburg took little active
personal part in the fight, and did
not even vote himself, but his sup
porters were very busy everywhere
waging a strenuous campaign. The
women's votes and the heavy turn
out of former stay-at-homes are be-
lieved to have been responsible for
his victory over such a seasoned
political campaigner as DR.. Marx.
DR.. Marks supporters also freely
admit that anti-Catholic feeling act
ed strongly against their candidates
prospects.
The Reichstag will reconvene next
Tuesday, and Won Hindenburg, if he
follows established custom will have
the Republican oath administered to
him some time during the week by
the Socialist Reichstag president,
Carl Loebe, in the presence Of
parliament in which he probably has
more opponents than supporters.
The crush at many of the polling
places was so great that violent en-
counters at times broke out and the
police were busily occupied in sep
arating the fighters.
More serious trouble occurred at
Karlsruhe. where two persons were
Killed and number wounded in
clash between Republicans and Ma.
tionalists.
Disturbances also took place ar
Ratibor in Silesia, when an erron-
eous announcement was published to
the effect that DR.. Marx was lead
ing Won Hindenburg by nearly 2,OOO,-
600 votes. The Nationalists, reused
by this. gathered and began march
ing through the streets. DISPERSED
by the police, they obtained rein
forcements and beseiged the police
stations in various towns in the
area. Scores of arrests were made.
MENACE TO PEACE
New York, April 27.-The election
OF Field Marshal Won Hindenburg as
president of Germany is menace
to world peace in the opinion of
James w. Gerard, former ambassa-
dor to Germany. Mr.. Gerard today
characterized the election as a flat
declaration by the German people
OF return to militarism and mon
archism.
Prominent Germans here, how
ever, saw in the election hope for a
united peaceful nation.

RAILROADS
WANT FARMERS
TO PROSPER
President of Big Line Has
Plan To Do Away With
Middleman
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
NEA Service Writer

Washington, April 27.-So selfish
are the railroads that they want
agricultural prosperity more tina,
anybody else, except the farmers
and at least as much as the farmer:
do. So B. +. Yoakum says.
AS one of the country's oldest
railroad presidents, he ought te
know.
Personally he's so selfish that he
organized the Farmer-to- Consumes
League, of which he's head.
"The farp,ers," he explains, "have
got to prosper or we railroad men
can't live"
B. F. Yoakum is a very hardboiled
old railroad man first, farmer sec.
ond. He knows it. He didn't want
to discuss the farm problem from the
railroad angle.
If l do,' he objected, "every-
body'll say, Yeah, that's all he cares
about the farmers-one word fol
them and two for the roads,"
l made remark about the era
of railroad building and the break
ing plow in the west! His eye lit.
"Yes," he exclaimed in new
tone, as to fellow member of his
own fraternity of the past, "in OUR
day that's the way it was" And he
warmed right up. There are ad.
vantages in being as old as anybody
else.
B. F. Yoakum's plan, packed small
is: Direct delivery from farmer to
consumer and direct payment by con-
sumer to farmer, eliminating num-
erous middlemen who now pocket all
such transactions profits and more
too. How effect this direct exchange
BY cooperative distribution and mar.
keting on a national scale, but with.
out government, control, supervision
or interference, which would be
worse than needless but for which
nearly all proposed laws provide.
Thus, says B. F. Yoakum, agricul-
ture will get what's coming to it and
there won't be all this kicking about
freight rates, which naturally seem
high to the farmers now, though
they're low to the railroads, consi-
dering what it costs them to run.
Right after the last election it was
widely predicted tremendous boom
was ahead.
dropped in to ask Secretary of
Commerce Hoover what he thought
about it, expecting him to say, "You
bet there'll be BOOM" as most pub
lie and business men used to do
when asked, "What do times look
like?''
Instead he began picking flaws in
the situation, pointing out that
prospects were less favorable than
some folk thought.
"The stock markets bullish," he
admitted sadly, "but," Frightening,
underlying conditions aren't SO
good"
Then he explained, "Booms would
be all right if it weren't for slumps.
But whenever there's boom there's
q slump. We don't want, booms be-
cause we don't want slumps."
Well, the boom hasn't materially
ed. Business has been pretty fair
but not on boom basis. The Com
merce Department is all smiles. "De-

POLICE SEEK
IDENTITY OF
SLAIN CHILD
Cir, Brutally Murdered and
Body Hacked and Burned
Beyond Recognition
FOUND NEAR CHICAGO
Pair of Spectacles Only
Clue to Slayers of
16-Year-Old Child
tBy The Associated press)

Chicago, April 27.-Working on
clues as meager as those that led
to the arrest of the kidnapers Of
Bobbie Franks last year, authorities
today were hunting for the slayers
of a sixteen-year-o girl whose
burned and mutilated body was found
last night near Chesterton, Indiana.
The girl had been shot three times
and her body was found beyond rec
ognition at the edge Of small wood
along highway.
An empty five gallon gasoline can
stood nearby. A little powder box,
some wisps of dark brown hair, a
string of beads, pair of tortoise
shell spectacles and a partially des-
troyed Pennsylvania Railroad en-
ployee's cards, are the clues with
which it is hoped the mystery may
be solved. The girl apparently had
been shot where she was found. Two
bullets were in her head and one in
her side. Her face was badly burn
ed as if in an attempt to destroy
completely the identity of the victim.
The legs had been hacked off just
below the knees and an arm was
severed below the elbow, all appar-
emily with a dull axe. Police be-
lieve the slayers fired the shots in
to the body and then deliberately
started to destroy the identifying
marks, cutting the shoes into pieces,
mangling one hand and then becom-
ing frightened and not waiting to
destroy the other hand. The i'm
prints of balloon automobile tires
veering suddenly off the road led to
the discovery of the body.
Sheriff William Forney hurried to
the scene from Valparaiso and said
the spectacles were an important
clue, pointing to the Leopold-Loeb
confessions as the direct result Of
tracing a pair Of spectacles. He also
valued the railroad card on which
the name had been obliterated but
the inscription still legibly read:
Northwest Region PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad No. 1882"
A coroner's physician prepared to
make an examination to determine
whether there had been an attack as
evidence pointed to such. theory.
There is great similarity in
circumstances between this and the
torso of the young woman found
IN catch basin on a Chicago golf
COURSE" the sheriff said, ''but in
this case we have some very good
clues"

OFFICIALS SHOCKED

Washington, April 27.-lts psy-
Geological effect outside Of Germany
rather than what it may portend as
new direction in German policies
appears to be the chief concern in
official circles here in viewing the
triumph Of Field Marshal Won Hin
denburg in yesterdays election.
Continued official silence on the
election did not conceal today re-
action Of surprise bordering on
shock, with the generally held view
that Germany has taken a step that
is, almost certain for a period at
least to hinder her progress toward
recuperation from the war.
Besides the suspicion with which
government and diplomatic observ-
ers are known to feel will result
from the Won Hindenburg election,
particularly in France, its chief eff
feet for Germany is expected in the
result Of the attending uncertainties
on the attitude of financial inter
ests on both sides of the Atlantic
1t is felt that complete execution
Of the Dawes plan is almost certain
to be still further delayed with a
consequent effect on the restora-
tion of Europe to sound economic
basis and indirectly on American
commerce.
There appears to be no DISPOSE
tion here, however, to take the
alarmist view.

Two Theories as to
Origin of Gazette"


There are two theories as to the
origin of gazette 1t seems that the
first newspaper SO called was pub
lished at V .Aice in the Sixteenth cen
fury. According to one theory, the pa
per was issued at Venice by the gov
ernm(ent and came out in manuscript
once' month during the war of 1868
between the Venetians and the Turks.
The paper was read publicly in certain
places and the fee charged for hearing
it read was one ''gazetta," which was
a small Venetian coin worth fraction
Of a cent. Hence the paper came to be
called the "gazetta" and finally the
gazette" If this derivation is correct
it is parallel to that of "jitney" as APP
piled to a bus which carries passen-
gers for "jitney," or nickel. Ac-
cording to the other theory, gazette
as applied to the Venetian paper is de-
rived from gaia" maybe. Hence
1t might have been fitting name for
newspaper.-Pa Pathfinder.
