 He accused the Republican Party of attempting to continue in control of this country under false pretenses.' Continuing, he said Cit misrepresented the Demo- cratic attitude and it's own atti- tude and boasts of accomplish ments that never took place. It is for the American electorate on the sixth of November to decide how much longer they are ready to stand for broken promises and mis-statements."
 The nominee assailed the utter ances of Hoover made at Boston. and quoted his rival of having re- ferred to a tariff commission as a most valuable arm of the Govern ment," and having said that it could "be strengthened and made more useful in several ways" but continuing, Hoover said but the American people will never con- sent to delegating authority over the tariff to any commission" The Governor declared that Hoover could "only have used these words for the purpose of beclouding the issue"

IN AIR

A bit more nOise-particularly
I'm the mid West areas-greeted
dial tWisters last evening and
made brOadcasts from local and
nearby stations more attractive in
contrast. The Baltimore and New
York programs were almost free
from interference and easily tuned.
Elsewhere chaos seemed to be
doing it's best and code was found
I'm unusual force and quantity
where static was not 80 bad.
The National Choristers, who were

said to be responsible for this or
ganization Of eight male voices. The
singers do almost all the things one
likes best to hear men sing-and
did it in excellent style.
The new program needed to be
just as good as 1t proved to be to
