BARE GAMBLING
RING IN PHILLY
Linked With Racketeering
in Crime Expose.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 5. -
Gambling was added today to the
list of underworld rings which con-
tributed to the $1O,OOO,00O account
the underworld is reported to have
started in various Philadelphia
banks.
Investigators for District Attorney
John A. Monaghan said they had
new evidence which indicated a
monster gambling ring was in oper-
alton here and that the ring was
closely allied with the alcohol racke-
teers who now are under grand
jury investigation. The investi-
gators indicated the ring was allied
with the bootleg syndicate in the
corruption which is about to bring
about q complete reorganization of
the Philadelphia police system.
Mayor Harry Mackey already is at
work on the reorganization of the
police force-a reorganization made
necessary by the grand jury recon-
mehdation that more than score
of police officials be suspended-and
already has conferred with Patrick
=. McKewen, chief county detective,
a close friend of Monaghan.
1t was reported, without confrma-
ton, that Mackey had offered Nc
Kewen more than $4,000 annually
to head the deteC tive department
and to organize it along the lines
made popular by Scotland Yard.

MELLON PICKED
TO keep JOB If
HOOVER WINS
Prophets Starts Choosing
Cabinet Officers for
Both Candidates.
BY LEO II. SACK,
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-Wito
conclusion of the campaign today
unofficial prophets have begun
picking members Of the next cabinet
All seem agreed that ii Hoover is
elected he will continue Andrew W
Mellon as secretary of the treasury
Ogden L. Mills, under secretary OF
the treasury, also mentioned for the
place, is said to desire that Mellon
carry on if possible.
In the event of Governor Smiths
election, owen d. Young, head o.
General Electric, and co-author of
the Dawes reparatioins plan, Is
mentioned as the Democratic secre-
tary OF the treasury.
John w. Davis, former ambasSa-
dor to England, is discussed as
Smiths secretary Of state, as is also
Norman Davis, who was under-SeC-
rotary of state for Woodrow VIII
son.
BOrah Might Get Post
Hoover's secretary of state may be
Senator William E. Borah and if he
refuses the post it may be Dwight
w. Morrow, who has achieved dis.
tinction as ambassador to Mexico
Borah's appointment has been dis
counted in some quarters because
of his habit Of pursuing a lone
course, not bound by party policies.
If he becomes President, Smith is
deemed likely to invite his campaign
manager, John j. Raskob, former
chairman of General Motors, to join
his cabinet, probably as secretary
of commerce.
For the same post Hoover's choice
might be from julius Rosenwald,
Chicago business leader; DR.. Julius
Klein, head of the bureau Of foreign
and domestic commerce, and Walter
L. Brown of Toledo, his first choice
as secretary of commerce when he
resigned last summer.
New Likely to Stay
Hoover's election may mean the
continuation of several other cabinet
officers, including probably PostmaS-
ter-General Harry S. New and Sec
rotary of Agriculture w. M. jar
dine. Senator George w. Moses of
New Hampshire may be invited to
join the Hoover official family, and
likewise Assistant Attorney General
William j. Donovan.
Smith, if elected, might invite
former Secretary Of the Navy Jo-
sephus Daniels to return to that
office, and also give Senator Pat
Harrison of Mississippi an oppor-
tunity to become a cabinet officer
if he chooses to leave the senate.
Another Smith appointee might be
Senator Key Pittman of Nevada.
Both candidates are supported by
such a distinguished group of Office
holders and former office holders,
and likewise citizens who would like
to reside in Washington, that
neither will have difficulty in find
ing willing material for his official
family

U, S. AGENTS TO
Guard ELECTION
FOR 8 STATES
Conditions in Indiana Seem
to Give Most Cause
for PreCaution..

Appearance of oscar r. Luhring,
former Evansville Qnd0 politician,
now assistant attorney general in
charge of the criminal division of
the department of justice at Wash
ington, in indianapolis today was
explained by a Washington dispatch
to the effect that the government
is keeping a close watch on the polls
in eight states, of which Indiana is
one.
Luhring, according to the Wash
ington dispatch, came personally to
supervise the watch for fraud.
Meanwhile, the Democratic state
organization has small army Of
detectives under command of Sher-
man Burns, son of William j. Burns,
ready to watch points in the state
where election corruption is expect
ed.
officials said they had been dis
couraging as much as possible the
efforts of federal marshals to swear
in more deputies during the election
because of the additional expense
and because of the belief that much
of the prediction talk of frauds
has been exaggerated, according TO
the Washington dispatch.
Indiana Most Worried
The eight states from which sug-
gestions Of trouble have come are:
New Jersey, Texas, Missouri, Illi-
nois, Indiana, Montana, Ohio and
Alabama.
The federal laws prohibit inter-
ference with qualified voters and
use of armed guards at the polls.
If the department were to go into
policing work on large scale dur
ing the election, considerable ex-
pense would be involved, it Is said,
because none of the marShals have
forces sufficiently large to watch all
the polling places.
Asks More Deputies
In Texas the trouble is confined
to Hidalgo county, where a local
machine is said to be dominating
the political situation.
Alabama trouble is confined to the
southern district, James A. Stafford,
marshal at Mobile, having wired for
permission to increase his staff OF
deputies in anticipation of trouble
at the polls. He was notified to
consult with the United States at
torney in his district.
, Ohicials said fraud limitations al
ways pour in just a few days before
election. Marshals are being in
str,lcted to handle the situation
without the assistance of the de-
partment and to consult with other
federal officials in their districts.
