FRAZIER, NYE,
SINCLAIR, ALL
BOOST HOOVER
We Choose Hoover Because
We Believe Him the More
Able They Say

Fargo, Oct. 4.-(R-Support for
Herbert Hoover was urged in joint
statement issued here today by Unit
ed States Senators Lynn J. Frazier
and Gerald P. Nye, and Congress
man ]. H. Sinclair, all Nonpartisans.
They had individually declared for
Hoover. Their appeal is now going
out jointly.
The full statement read:
Though we were not given a
chance to support q candidate for
president who is all that we would
desire, the choice nevertheless, of
Hoover as against Smith is made
comparatively easy.
1--WE, who have admired progress
sive statesmen like La Toilette and
Bryan must at all times remember
the principles which moved them.
Bryan never ceased fighting the in
fluences behind the Smith cause in
this campaign. He fought them as
enemies Of the progressive cause.
And IS enem es Of clean government.
He fought them as mere privilege
hunters and favor seekers.
LA Toilette, In his 1924 campaign,
made it clear that in the matter Of
scandals and corruption while in Of
flee, the Democratic administration
was no more clean and pure than
the Republican, and the scandals
about which so much is said today
were developed prior 20 that cam
paign.
Even though we condemn the
corruption and the attitude of the
Republican administration toward
agriculture, we have not hesitated in
choosing Hoover as against Smith.
I'VE choose Hoover because we
believe him easily the more able Of
the two men: Because we believe
the cause of clean and responsive
government has more to expect in
the way of cooperation from Hoover
than from one like Smith, whose
whole training and elevation has
come within the Tammany machine;
because we believe the interests of
our great agricultural state will be
far better served by Mr.. Hoover,
who shows keener grasp of the per-
picking agricultural situation, than
by Mr.. Smith. who is acquainted
only with city pavement farming,
and who never in. any Of his elec-
tions has carried the agricultural
counties in the state Of New York"

GRAF ZEPPELIN
READY TOJUMP
TO U.s.. SUNDAY
Final Test Flight Finds Gigan-
tic Craft Performing :.
Flightless)y

Berlin, Oct. 4.-(R-The new
German dirigible Graf Zeppelin, hav-
ing made her final test flight flaw
lessly, is ready to leave for the
United States on Sunday. 1t was
announced that only unfavorAble
weather would delay the airship's
departure
The Graf Zeppelin on the test
flight Of 81 1-2 hours covered about
1900 miles 1t an average speed Of
more than 50 miles an hour. The
ship flew from Friedrichshafcn,
where it was built, over Holland to
England and, after cruising over
Germany, Lack to its base.
As q rehearsal for the transat-
lantic flight the airship was navi-
gated throughout the night exclu-
sively by instruments in the pilots
cage, which was isolated from the
chart room behind it.
The dirigible was stated to have
shown no warping or other altAra-
tions Of contour through shifting Of
initiation gas. This is always con-
sidered posslt'~ in . new airship Of
such dimensions, especially when it
encounters strong head winds.
The motors functioned flawlessly
throughout the trip. An experiment
Of running Ill five Of them simultan-
eously on the newly developed
"Blau Cas-" named after the inven-
tor, was successful. For the greater
part Of the flight, however, benzine
was used 80 as to conserve the light
er fuel for the flight to America.
Sixty-nine persons, including the
crew, accompanied DR.. Hugo Ecken-
er, builder Of the Graf Zeppelin Off
cially known as LZ-127. One Of the
guests on the flight was Lieutenant
Commander Charles E. Rosendahl,
U. s. navy, commander Of the diri-
gible Los Angeles, originally the
LZ-126, which was also built ct
Friedrichshafen.

JOE ROBINSON
TALKSLIQU0R
IN OKLAHOMA 4
Says There Is No Material
Difference in Stand by Both
Ff Parties

Robinson Special Car En- Route
to Chickasha, Okla, Oct. 4.-(P)-
Campaigning here in Oklahoma,
Senator Joe Robinson, the DEM
ocratic vice presidential nominee,
has declared that if anybody believes
the Republican party has reformed
on the question Of prohibition, that
person should head immediately for
the lunatic asylum.
The senator moved on today to
Chickasha for his concluding speech
in the state.
At Muskogee last night he said
that the Republicans had used the
word Observe" in the prohibition
plank of their platform to make
good women and ministers believe
the Republican party is ready to
abandon the drink habit and declare
for tolerance.
In referring to the committee
which drafted the plank, he declared
that half Of them probably were half
intoxicated when they wrote it, and
urged his audience to 60 home and
read the Democratic and republican
platforms, and see If they could as
certain any material difference on
the prohibition question.
He said both platforms declared
for enforcement Of the prohibition
laws that he and Senator Curtis, the
Republican vice president nominee,
were dry and that Governor Smith,
the Democratic Standard Bearer, had
stated his position. He argued,
however, that Mr.. Hoover had failed
to make his position clear.
"Why, he knows how to use Ian
guage," he declared. If he wanted
to say he was against modification
Of the Volstead Act he could do SO.
He either wants modification and
doesn't want his position known. or
he is againlt modification and wants
the wet vote"

HOOVER TURNS
ATTENTION TO
EASTERN AREA
Republican Nominee Convinced
Real Fight Is Along Atlantic
Seaboard
READY FOR DIXIE TALK
Curtis and Borah Press Cam
paign vigorously in Smiths
Footsteps

Washing Oct. 4.-(R-His at
tention centered now upon the pres
ent exigencies Of the campaign,
Herbert Hoover is leaving to the
future his precise program for the
closing days of the presidential con-
test.
His chief concern for the time be-
ing is the eastern sector Of the
country from hich he receives
varying reports as to the outlook.
Some Of these are Of . very pessi-
mistic nature while others are less
gloomy.
Assessing the whole, the Repub-
lican presidential c: .ndidate is con-
vinced that the real fight is along
the eastern Atlantic seaboard, from
Jerseys shores to the point where
begins the rocklined coast Of Maine,
and his efforts are directed toward
strengthening the party ramparts
there.
Leaders in that section believe
that his personal visits to New
York City and New England will be
of great benefit and that after his
personal conference with the work
ers in his two addresses, one in New
York and the other in Boston, there
will be a rising tide Of support for
the national ticket.
The situation in the south also is
one to which Hoover is directing
some of his energies and his per-
sonal bid for support = that section
will be made Saturday in his visits
to Elizabethton and johnson City,
Tenn, in both Of which towns he
will make addresses.
While the candidate himself is di-
recting much Of his energies to the
territory lying to llorth and south Of
his personal headquarters here, the
west Shy no means neglected with
the campaign there being pressed
vigorously by Senator Curtis, vice
presidential candidate, and by Sem
ator William z. Borah, Of Idaho,
who is covering much Of the terri
tory traversed by the Democratic
presidential candidate.
On his trip to Elizabethton, upon
which he sets out tomorrow night,
Hoover will be accompanied by Mrs.
Hoover, their son, Herbert Jr., and
George Akerso.l, his personal assist
ant. With only . day set aside for
the visit to Tennessee, the nominee
faces a schedule only q little less
strenuous than he had on his recent
trip to New Jersey.
