He said he deserted two small
children and his wife at 1855 West

He said he came west with the
Morrow girl, and asserted that she
was a waitress that he had known
in Philadelphia.
This was a change in his previous
statement that both he and the girl
were members of prominent Phila-
delphia families, who came here to
save their families embarrassment
after a love affair that ended in
her eXpectant motherhood.

Bethel became more ramified, police

Premier Baldwin Says No Competition in Build

LONDON, Oct. 27.-Prime Min ister Stanley Baldwin asserted that Great Britain has no idea of building navy in competition with the United States. This de- claration was made at a great mass meeting in Albert Hall celebrating the Tenth Anniversary of the League of Nations.
 The Premier expressed profound regret at what he declared only temporary failure to reach an agreement with the United States on naval matters saying: "Our policy in naval building is to go slow. We have no intention of competing with the United States and we came to our decision to go slow long before we were asked to sign the Kellogg pact"

AUGUSTA, Ga, Oct. 27.-Con- tinuing his attack on Tammany and the record of Gov Alfred F.. Smith. William Allen White charg- ed Gov. Smith shows lack of moral intelligence in defense> of his New York Legislative record. He voted for Tammany, for after midnight saloons in towns and vil- lages and is today a candidate for President. He justifies his vote for the saloon because he said his voting was according to the wishes of his constituents. He lived that time in a district mag got-eaten with saloons. Of course Al Smith would think an after-mid- : night saloon a good thing. Thus does the Tammany Tiger tag Smith in new career.

SWING TOWARD GOV. SMITH IS
 SEEN IN EAST
Betting Odds Dropping Due Warmth of Smith

That there is a notable swing toward Gov. Alfred E. Smith in the East is the word received by The Empire last night from Ed ward Hurja, formerly well known journalist in Alaska, Washington, California and Texas, but now an expert in oil investments with large New York investment bank ing concern on Wall Street.
 The betting odds on Wall Street, which had been reported to be as high as nine to enc, were four to one on Hoover yesterday; even money that Gov. Smith would carry New York, and six to five that he would win in Massachusetts.
 There had been so many ru- mors about Juneau regarding the election betting odds in New York that The Empire wired MT. Hurja at his Wall Street office for the facts. His reply follows:
 SMITH GROWING STRONGER

 On Prohibition, Judge Hughes said "Gov. Smith advocates state manufacture, purchase and dsstri- button of liquor If this is not Socialism, do not know what it is. Certainly Gov Smith cannot identify me with being associated with any such project and 1t is obvious that Hoover is opposed to it, lock, stock and barrel"
 Asking the audience to imagine Tammany Hall Is charge of the executive, distribution and sale of intoxicating liquor in New York City, Judge Hughes said: "If you put the state in control of the manufacture and sale of liquor, you will have no restrictions at all or else the most widespread cor ruption and debauching of govern ment."

 There are a number of ques- tione, particularly agricultural relief, which urgently require solution and should not be de- layed a whole year.
 Tt is our most urgent econ omic problem. I should hope it would be dealt with at the regu- lar session this Fall and thus a special session would be avoided If, however, this is not accom- plished, I would, if elected, not allow the matter to drift and would of necessity call an extra session so as to secure early con structive action"

 Under the plans of Hoover, the rev. Congress to be elected No Nember will be summoned to Washington, perhaps in April, with the hope of an agricultural measure embodying his program for farm relief will be enacted in time for it's operation in han ding the 1929 crop.
