many relics and trophies of northern
wild life were aboard the schooner

to help the Legion in all Of its ma
Tor detectives, including lmmlera-

delivered as a message IRON the
French chamber of deputies.
Big Demonstration %
In a strange tongue, which nc
learned for this speech. from notes
printed in the Braille system. Ma
jor Scappini spoke so effectively and
SO intensely that he was interrupted
again and again and again, and the
demonstration at the end OF his
speech lasted ten r. lutes.
"Truthfully," he said, when

HOOVER SATISFIED
WITH OUTLOOK NOW
Gratif0 With Manner Cam
plien Is Being Handled
BY JAMES l.. WEST
Associated Press staff Writer

Washington, Oct. 11.-tR-While
Herbert Hoover engages in no po-
litical prophesies, he has informed
his friends he is satisfied not only
with the general outlook over the
country. but also with the manner In
which the major strategy of his own
campaign is working out.
This strategy has been to confine
his addresses to a discussion of the
issue and his own philosophy of gov
eminent and to>keep clear of per-
sonalities and controversies which
might obscure what he regards as
the fundamental principles in which
the public ia primarily interested.
Plan Followed
That plan was followed in his pre-
convention campaign, and he has ad-
hered to it rigidly since his nomina-
ton, although at times there has
been no small amount of pressure
put upon him to depart from it in
specific instances.
Aside from his public addresses.
LEGATION and only one of these has
dealt with claims of the opposition.
This was his statement that the
Kellogg BRAND treaty constituted
the greatest contribution to world
peace and was a complete answer to
the charge of the democrats that the
republican party had done little In
the cause of peace.
Not once since the campaign
opened has Hoover mentioned in an
address or public statement the
name of his democratic opponent
and only upon a very few occasions
has he referred to the democratic
party or the opposition. This in itself
is somewhat unusual in political
campaigns.
Leaders Active
While Hoover himself has con-
fined his efforts to outlining his posi-
ton and that of his party, republican
leaders have been active in reply
| ing to the assaults which have been
made on the party record. Cabinet
stumping the country in person
or by radio replying to Governor
Alfred E. Smith. the democratic cam
didate. and other chieftains OF the
opposition party.
| Hoover now plans 10 make only
four more speeches before election
day and his friends assert that his
plans will not be changed. His next
two platform efofrts will be on
eastern ground where the fight be-
tween the two parties wages the
hottest, his third will be in the
middle west. where each side has
concentrated In its effort to win
votes, while the last will be from
the quiet Of his study In his Cali
fornia home.
