FULLER OUT FOR ! HOOVER OPENLY
Mass. Governor Declares Himself
 at Last Minute

Boston April oS. R,-An eleventh hour statement by Gov. Alvan T. Fuller bespeaking in behalf of Her bert Hoover the presidential prefer once of Massachusetts republican voters in tomorrow's primaries, to- day had injected fresh interest into an otherwise quiet campaign.
 Gov. Fuller at the same time re- to be considered as favorite son with the declaration that he was not interested"
 The Governors statement was in- serted in all morning newspapers here in advertising space reserved by the Governor himself.
 Ali Baba surrounded by the 40 thieves was no more entitled to sympathy than some of our presi- dents have been because of the men to whom they were beholden for their nomination" declared the gov ernor in urging that the people throw the weight of their influence toward nomination men of independ- ence, ability and distinction" For the first time in the history Of this commonwealth, its voters will have the right to express with out restrictions their presidential preferences tomorrow. In addition they will choose eight delegates at large to tk" de'9ocratic national con- vention & l to the republican. while th. ,,~.,Gcrats will name GA halfvote district delegates and the republicans 32 each with a full vote
 In expression of preference the voters will be unguided by any name on the ballot. Voters may write in any name or may use stickers for the purpose.
 All of the republican delegates will be unpledged but may have an- nounced Hoover as choice. while the majority of the democrats are Smith men and no other presiden- tial candidate has been endorsed. Under the terms of the recently enacted law, proposed by Gov. Full Ter and passed by large majorities of both houses of the legislature, the presidential preference primary is not binding on the delegates but is intended for their guidance as representative of the voters.
 When enacted. it was predicted many republicans would declare for President Coolidge despite his an- nounced refusal to be candidate for renomination. The president last week wrote to Chairman Pres colt of the republican state commit tee that such action would be cm- barassing to him.
 There are several district con- tests and one each against the re- publican and democratic organiza. tion slates for delegates at large. Or

p0|NCARE WINNER
 IN FRENCH VOTING
Practically Certain of Adequate
 Majority

Paris, April 23.-1Rp-A strong drift to Premier Poincare with the disintegration of the parties opposed to him was indicated today to have taken place in the national election.
 With but eight districts missing, the Premier appeared certain to end with a majority in the chamber of deputies sufficient to enable him to complete his program of financial rehabilitation.
 One hundred and seventy-nine deputies were elected on the first | ballot. Of these. the Poincare union government was sure Of 130 and counted upon 13 others to support it.
 In at least 4o5 constituencies, no candidate received the majority necessary for election and a second vote will be taken for these seats lsoNt Sunday. At this time the candi- date with the highest plurality will be declared elected. The eight miss ing constituencies are in the colonies.
 New coalitions between now and next Sunday may stem the tide to- ward Poincare somewhat if the So- cialists and Radicals are able to get the scattered pieces of their parties together Forecasts made on the basis of the vote in districts where there was no majority yesterday however, were that the union gov rrnment would have solid It11 jnyfx- of predicted that this would exceed 100
 Radicals Conferring
 Radical and Socialist leaders to- day were already conferring as to what they could do to save their parties from the wreck. One leading Radical organ demanded a ''union of all parties for next Sundays voting."
 Another coalition between Social fists and Radicals presented new diff faculties because the Communists made gains which impressed the So- rlalist masses and may cause further Socialist losses on the second bal lot. Leon Blum Socialist leader, was put in the minority by the Commu- mist candidate in his district. He is in a disagreeable position in that he is obliged to ask for Bourgeoise votes or retire.
 No Communists were elected on the first ballot. however. Still one of the significant facts was their enormous lead over the Socialists fin the Paris suburbs and even in some country districts which had hereto fore been regarded as Socialist strongholds. In the suburbs of Paris the Communists boiled 233,ooo votes 10 the Socialists 157,O0O.
 In the department of the Loire, an agricultural district. the Communists boiled 13.000 to 140OO for the So- cialists. They sprang another sur. prise when they prevented the elec- tion of Socialists in the Nord and Pas De Calais departments. These are mining and industrial districts which hitherto had not shown great Communist strength.

RAMON NOvARRo AT CAPITOL

ltAMoN NotAhnO Al NAfIlOL
 Ramon Novarro, hero of Ben Hur" and many role in which he wore brilliant uniform, furnishes a surprise, and very refreshing one, in "Across to Singapore" his newest starring vehicle, at the Cap itol theater today, Tuesday and Wednesday. For he appears as a sailor of the old wind jammer" days; a mariner in sweater and dungarees, before the mast, in a whirlwind adventure of sea storms, Oriental battles and other thrilling episodes that form a thunderous background for an entrancing love story.
 Novarro plays a sailor, one of | three seataring brothers, and a love quest hurls him into a maelstrom of adventure. As the young sailor, battling human passions and the elements, Novarro has a role in which he proves powerful de- 1 llneator Of human emotions. The terrific storm at sea, the attack of the Oriental pirates and the mu. tiny on deck. are all splendidly done under the expert direction of William Nigh.
 On Thursday great program of double features will be offered, The main attraction will present Sammy Cohen and Ted McNamara, those two funny comedians of "What Price Glory" in their new hit Why Sailors Go Wrong"
