GLASS SAYS
ALSMITH CAN
BE ELECTED
Being Catholic and Wet No
Barrier, But He Must Let
Prohibition Issue Alone

Asheville, s.. c., Apri! 5.-P,--
The Asheville Citizen today quoted
Senator Garter Glass Of Virginia as
saying that AL Smith can be elected
president despite the fact that he is
Catholic and wet. but he must
let the prohibition issue alone.
II am sure Al Smith understands
that the presidency means nothing
at all in the fight to modify prohibi-
tion," Senator Glass declared. ''The
presiednt cannot change the consti-
tuition. He cannot even veto Il joint
resolution passed by congress sub
mitting the matter to the states, and
his influence with congress on such
an issue would be negligible.
"Yet, for some reason, the people
who talk about electing a president
on wet issue lose sight Of that par
ticular consideration. The president
has nothing to do with it. When a
Democratic president (Woodrow Will
SOM did veto the Volstead act, con-
gress thought SO little of his leader
ship on the matter that it passed the
act over his veto."
Senator Glass said that those who
seek changes in the prohibition law
should concern themselves with OBJ
tanning majority in congress to
pass the desired legislation.

several other prisoners who could
find chairs, while all awaited arrival

HUNT RESUMED
FOR MINER WHO
DISAPPEARED
Fellow WOrkmen Positive He
Was Drowned in Mine. But
Proof of Death Needed

Cambridge. Ohio, April 5.--t4,--
Rcsuming search abandoned nearly
five months ago. state mine inspect
ors today went into the partially wa
terrified workings of the Cleveland
mine Of the Cambridge Galleries
company. 20 miles southeast of here.
to hunt for the body of "old Pete"
Swedish. 70, who disappeared in
the mine November I.
Search is being resumed at the re-
quest Of miners of sub district No. s,
who took action last week after the
state industrial commission had de-
MED the death compensation claim Of
the aged miners wife on the ground
that there was no proof Of his death.
No doubt exists hereabouts that
"Old Pete" went to his death in one
of the deep, murky waterholes which
abound in the meandering tunnels
which cover an area Of 10 acres.
Tools and dinner pals he carried in
to the mine the day it resumed oper-
alton. after a long shutdown, were
found lying in one Of the tunnels the
day after his disappearance, but the
trail leading away from them proved
untraceable. and after 10 days Of
searching his hundred odd fellow
workers and five state inspectors
gave up the hunt.
Now, to provide proof Of death SO
that the widow can obtain compensa-
tion for the loss of "Old Pete's" sup
port, five state mine inspectors have
returned to the workings to deter
mine where the aged digger met his
doom.

FERDINAND IS
FIGHT
AGAINST DEATH
Question of.+Days, Perhaps
Hours, Reports From Ru-
manian Capital Indicate

Paris, April 5.--(R)---King Fcrdin-
and Of 'Rumania today was fighting
a losing battle in his efforts to over
come the ravages of his ailment.
This was apparent even from tho
laconic bulletins issued ut his bedside
in Bucharest. but the latest reliable
information to reach Paris from the
Rumanian capital indicated that
death was only a question of days,
perhaps hours.
Advices from Bucharest said the
political group in the kingdom were
alive to the danger Of Russia scizing
the opportunity to take advantage Of
the disorganized political situation
at such juncturc and that they now
envisaged coalition ministry to in
clude all the parties. Premier NJ.
Averescu conferred with former
Premier BratianO and other leaders
with this end in view.
This Solution Favored
The national peasants party seemed
inclined to rally to this solution Of
the situation. 1t has given up the
idea Of bringing back former Crown
Prince Carol to rule in case of the
death Of Ferdinand
The party decided to accept the APP
pointment by. constitutional act Of
last year of Prince Michael, Carols
five-year-old son, as heir apparent
to the throne and also the regency
provided for by the act to take charge
Of affairs should Ferdinand die. The
regency would rule until Michael was
18 years old.
Carol rcmained today at his villa
in Neuilly. Bound by his word Of
honor that he would not return to
Rumania without permission, Carol
was waiting disconsolately today the
arrival of summons to his fathers
bedside.

RABIES SPREAD
CAUSES WORRY
IN WEST STATE
Eastern Oregon Districts In
woke Aid -All Coyotes
Marked For Slaughter

Portland, Oregon, April 5.-(P)--
An epidemic Of rabies, which appar.
emily started among q pack of coy
otes and spread to domestic animals
harassed the Bear Valley and Izee
districts Of Eastern Oregon today as
federal aid was invoked to stamp out
the danger.
All coyotes in the district and
every head of livestock as well as
other domestic animals suspected OF
bearing the infection were marked for
slaughter as four hunters Of the
United States biological survey set
out to attack the cause of the cpl
demic.
Existence Of the danger became
known when the Portland laboratory
Of the state health department re-
vealed that two coyotes and two dogs
killed in the affected district had
proved to be rabid.
Government officials said the dis
ease was spread as the coyotes be-
came rabid and ran amuck, biting
every animal they could reach. Even
rabbits and sheep become ferocious
and crazy when infected.

Voting began to pick up briskly
after the noon hour and at 3 o'clock
this afternoon 1850 votes had been
cast as compared with 1890 at the
same hour in the general election last
November which was considered very
good. The heaviest vote. up to 8
O'Clock today, had been east in the
first precinct Of the third ward, at
the high school, which had a total
vote at that hour of l73.
The total registration in Bismarck
last fall was 4,616. and there has
been little change in that total since.

quired to register this spring were
those who had come into the city

POLITICAL HEADQUARTERS
IN TWO PLACES ARE BOMBED

Chicago. April 6.@R-Two head
quarters of the Democratic political
workers in Chicago were bombed
early today by men riding in two au-
tomobiles. The fronts of both places
were demolished, but no one was in
jured. The bombers escaped.
The first bombing occurred at the
headquarters Of State Representative
Lawrence O'Brien, active in Demo-
cratic politics in the 42nd ward. The
other bombing was at a two-story
brick barn. A black powder bomb
was used there, police said, and dyna-
mite at the O'Brien place.
O'Brien said he had received
threats that he would be knocked
off" after he had had william Dam
ma, 30. arrested for pointing a re-
vOlver ut him.
The barn was owned by James
Rowan, a Democratic worker, who
said he supposed the bombers were
trying to intimidate someone.
