Australian Fascists
Raid MatteOtti Club

MELBOURNE, Australia, (FP) -
A feud has broken out between mem.
bers of the newly established Mat
teotti Club and the fascist organiza-
ton in Melbourne. The fascists have
declared that the 500 members of the
club are anarchists and must have
their activities restrained. Already,
the fascists have made several attacks
on the club.
The Nkatteotti Club is, of course, not
anarchistic, though it is certainly anti

Kansas City, June 15,-The Re-
publican party has selected Her
bert Hoover for its presidential
nominee and in so doing has taken
an epochal step.
For the first time it has passed
over the professional politicians
and has picked a product of the
new industrial age as the man best
fitted in it's judgment to guide the
nation through the next four years.
The first ballot taken in Con-
vention Hall late last night gave
Hoover the nomination with SGT
votes. His next rival was Frank
O. Lowden, of Illinois with "a.
President Coolidge received 81
votes. 1t was as decisive a victory
as the convention could give. The
tribute of the balloting was pre-
coded by two others. Twice while
he was placed in nomination the
convention engaged in enthusiastic
demonstrations, the first lasting Is

ed to cast its lot with this new sort

in keeping with modern times and
less tied to the traditions of Wash
ington and Jefferson.
During the campaign, however,
there is little prospect that the
country will be kept awake by Hoo
yer himself quite and shy-not
given to ballyhoo.
His public speeches are always
painful to himself and sometimes
to his audience. Hoovers' cam
paign is expected 70 be dignified

made of the radio. His tentative
plans are to go to Palo, Calf, for
notification ceremonies and then
establish front porch lase in the

to prepare for college and ran a
laundry route-ani later the laun-
dry-to make money for his col
lege course in Leland Stanford

he still has home.
Hoover graduated in 1895, 21
years old, and went to work as a
mine leader. Then he got $50
month job as clerk for mining
engineer and worked in New Mex

He went to Australia in 1897
and directed building and operation
of large mining and metal works.
He married Lou Henry of Monte

whose delegations had supported
him in the bitter anti-Hoover pres
idential fight.
Before the nomination speech
the convention had heard the STIR
ring message from Hoover in reply
to telegram of notification and
congratulations sent to Washing
ton last night. Hoover pledged
himself to attempt solution of the
farm relief problem and to contin-
ue the policies fostered by Presi-
dent Coolidge.
