HOOVER again HAS

Today's Conference Closes Mid.
West Sessions

Cedar Rapids, la, Aug. % Up
Another round of conferences with
farm leaders today closes Herbert
Hoovers three-day visit to the great
Mid-western grain country.
Aided by his personal contact
with men who profess to interpret
the viewpoint of the wheat. corn
and other grain growers, the repub-
lican presidential candidate leaves
late today for Washington. There on
saturday in newly established head
quarters he viii! take personal
charge of his campaign.
Both in his public and private
talks here Hoover has emphasized
his belief that in seeking to relieve
the agricultural industry, each of
the dozen or more component parts
must be treated separately. He has
likewise stated his own purpose to
have the federal farm board he has
proposed, approach the problem
from that basis
Hoover has reiterated his state
ment in his notification speech that
the board should have power TO
deal with all phases in the situation,
present and future. and that it also
should have such detailed informal
ton as could be obtained only in
frequent conferences with leaders in
each industry.
Between the time of exchanging
views with farm leaders, the repub-
lican candidate has received varied
reports as to the outlook in the sew
eral grain growing states He has
been heartened by information from
Kansas and Iowa, but a note of
pessimism has run through that
from the northwestern states Pro-
ducers in that section who just now
are beginning to market their wheat
crop, are faced with sharply de-
prices and political leaders
say this unquestionably has had an

effect. However they have expressed
to the nominee their belief that
these states will be found in the re-
publican columns in November.
Senator Gerald p. Nye, of North
Dakota, a republican independent
who has advocated the equalization
fee principle, definitely discarded by
Hoover, announced last night that
he would mo longer hesitate to sup
port the Hoover candidacy. He said
he had been convinced at a confer
snce with the party standard bearer
that he was determined to bring TO
the solution of the agricultural
problem the same force and energy
that had enabled him to solve
many great and perplexing bust
ness problems following the war;
Beside the farm leaders, Hoover
has conferred with a number of SEN
ators and Representatives from sew
elal border as we'll as western
states. All of them made encourage

This Journey across the continent
from his California home has proven

are beginning to show.
However he has taken to these,
to him rather new and necessary
features of campaigning, with
show of enthusiasm which has sur
prised even the closest OF his 1d-

BERLIN, November 29.-William

said that he did not think much Of the
so-called chemical warfare His opinion
was that this existed more in literature
than in fact
The defense minister told the Deut-

aerial warfare would occupy in strategy
was still unclear.
He gave the late President Ebert
credit for the present construction of
the German army, which, he said, pos
sessed the good qualities of the pre-war
army in an increased measure. Never
theless," he added, sit cannot be said
that the Reichswehr constitutes a
threatening instrument of war, nor is
1t the model army of the world. Such
model must look far different"
