nineteen counties embracing those
places would make a change of
81 500 votes over the 1926 situation,
leaving only 28,412 to be changed
elsewhere for a Hoover victory.
"a Hoover majority of $500 in
those nineteen counties would mean
a further change of 10000 votes,
leaving only 9,412 to be changed
elsewhere.
"This means an average reduction
in the 1925 Watson vote of less than
691a to the county for the remain
ing 70 counties! You can bank on
it that Hoover will be lot more
than 6912 votes county stronger
than the unknown Adams.
"These figures, merely illustrative,
make it clear that smashing the
Watson machine is, after all, an easy
task and that the cloak of difficulty
he would have us believe surrounds
this task is merely a myth, making a
fetish of a discredited organization.
Granting Watson every break, he
is licked. Watson and his man
ayers know this. Hence the stren-
uous campaign upstate and the
criss-crossed slate deals they are at
tempting with numerous guberna-
torial and senatorial candidates.

Jim WATSON is
THROUGH, SAYS
HOOVER Chief
With Every Break, Senator
Is Licked Assertion
of FOeIIinger.

Granting Watson every break, he
is licked!" was the pronouncement
today Of Oscar G. Foellinger, Indi-
ana manager for Herbert c. Hoover's
presidential campaign. This state
ment, Foellinger said, is supported
by polls throughout the State, de-
spite Watson's strenuous efforts in
northern Indiana and analysis of
the Watson vote in 1926, in light of
his 1928 opposition.
"Only by secret deals with certain
candidates for Governor and Sena-
tor, so that his name will be carried
on the diScredited Coffin and other
states, will Watson have chance
to carry Indiana in the presidential
primary said Foellinger.
only on the basis of such deals
can his managers claim even
fighting chance, or make the ridicu-
lous statement that he will roll UP
a greater majority than he did over
ClariS Adams for the senatorial
nomination in 1926.
Reveals Own Weakness
"Watson's own campaign tells the
story of his weakness. He made
one speech against Adams in 1926;
now he personally will stump the
State for the next ten days.
South Bend gave him a 4,500
majority in 1926; now he spends
three days there.
FIT Wayne gave him a 5000
majority in 1926; now he finds it
necessary to buy three columns of
space daily in the Democratic paper
there.
"NIuncie, Anderson, and similar
places gave him strong majorities
in 1926; now street polls in those
places show Hoover the favorite by
from 4 to l to 10 to l.
THE change of sentiment that is
forcing Watson to fight his hardest
in the districts that once were easy
for him is epidemic. 1t covers the
State like wildfire."
North for Hoover
''Watson's majority over Adams in
1926 was $685." said Foellinger in
support of his prediction of Hoo
yer victory. mot one person in
5,O00-outside Of Indianapolis-even
knew Adams first name, while Hoo
yer is an international figure known
to all. He is a man behind whom
the masses of Indiana are rising.
ION the basis Of that 1926 Wat
son majority, only 1914 votes need
be changed to make the result a tie.
Honest observers agree that Hoo
yer is certain to roll up substantial
majorities in FIT. Wayne, South Bend,
Gary, Lafayette, Huntington,

Twelfth and Thirteenth districts and
elsewhere.

CHICAGO FACES
PANIC !; Golfer
NEARLY empty
City Owes Million and Has
Only $4,000 to Meet
Its Debts.
BIZ United Press

81 UnlteU PfcSS
CHICAGO, April 27.-Chicago's
city fathers today were seeking a
financial wizard who can devise
means to pay $1,045,O21 of debts,
with a fund of S13,3O0 now in the
treasury.
The figures were made public
last night in the city controllers
report. The aldermen became so
alarmed over the statement that
they voted to recall all unexpended
appropriations, defer all those pend
ing, and ordered department heads
to conserve every penny until a
solution can be found.
The financial problem was said to
be the greatest since 1917, when it
was necessary to vote bonds to keep
the corporate balance. Mayor Will
liam Hale Thompson was serving
his first term in 1917.
If Chicago's bills were paid up.
the controller said, the city would
be $1,032, 121 in the hole, with moth
ing in the treasury for the rest of
the year.
. No way other than drastic
economy was suggested by the
aldermen as a solution of the prob
lem.
The council had counted on a
large bond program passing at the
last primary. but the issue was de-
feated. Mt was said the council had
spent around 100000 for miscel-
laneous items, believing there was
a balance of $780, 900 in the treasury.

But these candidates will not be
deceived long by the old Watson
habit of straddling the fence and
playing both ends against the mid
die. When they learn of this at
tempted duplicity, then keep away
from the apple cart!
They know that if Watson wins
he can carry out his promises at
the State convention with only one
candidate for Governor or Senator.
Consequently, they prefer to see
Watson defeated and to take their
chances with an Embossed conven-
ton"
