Al APPEALS
TO Farmers
over RADIO
Asks Why G. O. P. Has Not
Remedied Condition in
Last Seven Years.
OUTLINES PROPOSALS
Charges Carried Directly to
Hoover in Speech by
Democratic Nominee.

81 CNftcu PTc8S
NEW YORK, Nov. 5-A final ap-
peal to the farmers was made by
Governor Alfred E. Smith in a short
radio speech today. At 10 p. m. he
will devote an hour on the radio to
an appeal to all voters.
The Democratic presidential nomi-
nee outlined proposals he had in
dorsed for handling the agricultural
problems and argued that his Re-
publican opponent, Herbert Hoover,
and the Republican party had Of
fered no solution.
The crux Of the farm problem, he
said, is the disposal Of surplus crops,
a principle which, he contended,
was not recognized by the Repub-
lican candidate or platform.
Carrying his charges directly to
Hoover, Smith said:
"The Republicans have been IN
power for seven and a half years.
Hoover said last Friday night that
they had been alive to the situa-
tion of agriculture
'I know you will agree with me
that they did nothing about it; that
the promises they made have never
been kept and that the situation
is worse today than when the Re-
publicans came into office.
Predicts Own Election
The Governor closed his address
with a prediction that the farmers
of the country Tuesday will elect
him President.
1.-THE industrial east joins with
the agricultural west in its desire
for the restoration of democratic
government" he said.
ss Il believe that Tuesday will bring
a great Democratic victory" he said,
land I assure you that that victory
in turn will bring a solution of the
agricultural problem that will re-
store prosperity to the farm and
promote the welfare of the entire
country"
"You can no more control and
stabilize commodities prices by a
corporation that has not power to
lift the surplus clear out of the
domestic market than you can fight
fist fieht with a man ten miles
away" he said.
State Socialism?
IT agree with Governor Lowden
and Senator Norris there can be no
satisfactory solution of the farm
problem unless that solution Is based
upon the principle Of an effective
control of the sale of exportable
surplus with the cost imposed upon
the commodity benefited"
Smith ridiculed the idea that Hoo
ver's proposed extra session of con-
gress could do any good. He said
Hoover was opposed to the funda-
mental principle of farm relief and
that, if elected, the Republican
candidate would not sign a bill en-
bodying a principle which he de-
clared to be state socialism"
Smith contended that it was upon
Hoover's advice that President
Coolidge vetoed the "only farm re-
lief measure which thus far has
been proposed"

They told police they believed one
of the cars had been left in reverse
and backed into Kirk when he put
on the trolley. Kirk died a few
minutes after he was placed in the
ambulance.

Y00-HUM! ANOTHER
GOOD PLOT FOILED
Marathoners Outsmarted by Dance
Promoters.

Marathoners Outsmarted by Dance
Promoters.
The marathon dance has been
saved to posterity.
A dark plot to end the educational
spectacle was uncovered and frus-
trated.
The conspirators, none other than
the eight remaining "hoofers,''
planned, it seems, to split the re-
manning prize money between them
and evacuate the floor at the same
time.
The promoters, however, through
their intricate secret service sys-
tenn, learned of the plot and halted
it in short order.
BY the simple expedient of declar-
ing the last couple through the gates
of the Riverside dance pavilion
would receive tie $1,000 first prize,
the conspiracy was foiled.
Couples %, 18, 13 and still were
trudging around the floor as the
dance went into its 795th hour at
noon today.

PLANS QUIET TUESDAY
BY THOMAS L. STOKES


ABOARD HERBERT HOOVER'S
SPECIAL TRAIN EN- ROUTE TO
PALO ALTO, Nov. S. Herbert
Hoover came home to California to-
day to be among his friends in the
scenes of his young manhood while
the nation decides at thousands of
ballot boxes whether he is to be the
next President of the United States.
He will learn at his home on the
campus Of Stanford University
whether the colorful career that be-
gan there when both the college and
himself were young and that has
rounded itself out in all parts of the
world will come to it's climax In the
White House.
Noisily, with gay abandon, Cali
fornia began her welcome early this
morning, soon after the train had
crossed the state line, crowds gath
cred to welcome Hoover home at
stops along the way.
The stops we're not so numerous as
the train is literally rushing to Palo
Alto in order that the Republican
candidate may arrive on time. It is
making a run that is second best
to any ever made from st. Louis
and that other was an emergency
run. The train is seven hours ahead
of the regular scheduled time from
st. Louis.
Plans Quiet Tuesday
The candidate expects to spend
Tuesday quietly while the nation is
voting. He will receive election re-
turns Tuesday night over a special
United Press wire which has been
installed in his home.
Sunday was interrupted by stops
but few times as the train crossed
the wild waste lands and speeded
between the Stark mountains of
Utah and Nevada, country familiar
to the candidate ana his wife from
the mining engineer days.
At the infrequent stops, crowds
which gathered about the back plat
form showed their friendliness. The
largest crowd was at Salt Lake City.
Hoover expressed his pleasure at
the receptions along the way, but
declined to discuss politics because
it was the Sabbath. Parades at
Salt Lake City and Ogden were can
celed.
At Gas p. m. (Pacific Coast Tine)
the Republican will speak from the
microphone his last message before
the election brief nationwide ap-
peal over the radio for voters to go
to the polls. 1t will be nonpar-
tisan address.
Tuesday morning early he will go
to the Stanford union, on the cam
pus to cast his vote for himself for
President.

 Cochet especially provides fine pattern for the boys to follow.

Some observers say he has shown more improvement since last year than any other player. If he plays here as he did abroad he may be able to make American fol- lowers of the game forget that Lacoste will not appear in Ameri- ca this year.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-A trio of French tennis youngsters who may grow up to become the Three Musketeers of the tri-color when the great triumvirate of Cochet. Lacoste and Borotra eventually begins to fade, will be seen in ac- ton in this country during the next few weeks.
 Accompanied by the seasoned campaigners, Cochet. Borotra and Brugnon, these youthful stars are invading the United States for ex- perience in such American court fixtures as our national champion ships, in line with definite French policy of building for the future no matter how strong the present grip on world supremacy may be.
 The names of the youthful new comers-Ch Boussus, Pierre Landry and Rene De Buzelet- those of Lacoste and Cochet a now are little known, but so were few seasons ago.
 Somewhere around 1922 or 1923" Bill Tilden recalled not long ago in one of his numerous writ ings which appeared in American Lawn Tennis" France sent us

tell. Their play hereabouts will give American tennis fans a good chance to judge for themselves.
 In this country it is the fashion to hail as future greats those who achieve the rare feat of beating Tilden or one of the French Mus keteers. At least two of tho three young Frenchmen have pass- ed the test, Boussus having taken the measure of Cochet at Mar seilles nj 1927, while Landry beat both Borotra and Brugnon at Paris the year before.
 Landry and Boussus were rank ed fifth and sixth respectively among French players last year, trailing only the four Davis Cup players. De Buzelet ranked only twentieth, but has been coming fast.
 All three have been getting in valuable experience in internation- al play, Boussus last winter mak- ing tour of South America, the United States, Australia and South Africa along with Borotra and Brugnon. This has been follow ed this summer by creditable play in European tournaments, includ ing the Wimbledon championships

George Hatton, Ned Lemieux and George Case this week completed a job which accomplished more in the way of improving the appearance of Front Street than anything else that has been done in long time. Refer ence is made to the building occupied by George Cowan being moved back to the line of other buildings. The building in it's former location seri- ously marred the appearance of low CT Front Street. The thanks of the public are due the town council for making arrangements whereby the building could be moved back to a position where it would not have the appearance of an obstruction.

RELIEF BOATS FIND NO TRACE
 OF MISSING HALBUT BOATS
(Ketchikan Chronicle)

Not a single trace of the missing halibut boats Brunvoll and Imperial had been found by four vessels on the search up to late this afternoon and the conviction grew in Ketchikan that the 13 members of the crews have perished in the seas which un- doubtedly- have claimed their craft.
 Though the search will be contin- ued by the Akutan, Dorothy, Cygan and Unalga, until all possibilities are exhausted, the main remaining hope is that some or all members of the crew of the BrunvolI may have reached Middleton island alive.
 Weather Flinders Search
 Rough weather and tremendous seas have prevented landing on this island, near where the BrunvolI was last sighted on November 15. But as soon as conditions permit both the Dorothy and the Akutan intend to visit the island.
 The following message from the Unalga in the vicinity of Lituya Bay was relayed to M S. Dobbs, collector of customs:
 Searching zigzag to southward Dorothy reports nothing sighted Nuka bay, Port Chatham, Chiniak bay and will land Middleton island when weather permits. Akutan leav- ing Port Althrop this morning to fol- low shore line to Cape St. Elias, Prince William sound and Middleton island. No report from Cygan.

 The crew of the Imperial was J. c. Rohman, skipper, Hans Mathesen. Chris Carlswick, Edward Larsen, Ole Nerland and Hjalmar Jacobsen.

Story Tells of Thrilling Indian
 Battles In Early Canada West

Tribal wars and deeds of treachery marked the history of Indian tribes in the early Canadian west. The massacre of the entire band of the Snake Indians is graphically describ- ed by Henry John Moberly in his mar rative shortly to appear in print.
 The Assiniboines. writes MT. Moberly, proposed to the Snakes a meeting at the head of Lac Brule, just below the entrance to Jasper Pass, for the purpose of ratifying a peace, each band coming unarmed.
 "The Snakes agreed and the men of the band, leaving their guns, ar rived and were placed in the inner circle round the council fire. The Assiniboines, however, concealed their guns under their blankets and at prearranged signal drew them and shot down in cold blood every man of their ancient enemies. They wiped out the rest of the band. with then rushed to the Snake camp and he exception of three young women whom they brought as prisoners to Fort Assiniboine. There they were stripped, bound and placed in a tent, to be tortured and finally dispatched at a great scalp dance to be held the next day."
