PO|NCARE RESIGNS
WITH HIS CABINET
Crisis Due to Radical
Opposition to Budget and
Defense Program.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, November 6.-The Poincare
cabinet, which has been in Office since
July %, 1925, resigned in body today
after four radical Socialist ministers
offered their designations.
The radicals who resigned were Al
bert Sarraut, minister of interior; Ed
Guard Herriot, minister of education;
Henri Queille, minister of agriculture,
and Leon Perrier. minister of colonies.
The cabinet crisis resulted from ac-
ton of the radical congress held at
Anglers. At this conference the party
made demands for changes In the bud
get which Premier Poincare refused.
The resolutions also required that the
radical ministers should retire unless
the government consented to the or
ganization of government functionaries
in trades unions, unless appropriations
for national defense were reduced and
unless the party's demands for impor-
tant changes in the budget of 1929
were accepted.
The general opinion today was that
Premier Poincare would be able to form
a cabinet without them that would COM
mand sufficient majority in the
Chamber of Deputies to continue the
program of the union government.

ABOARD PRESIDENT COOL
IDGE'S TRAIN EN- ROUTE TO
WASHINGTON. November 6.--After
casting their ballots this morning in
Northampton, Mass, their home town,
President and Mrs. Coolidge are speed
ing back to Washington, where they
will arrive tonight shortly after their
customary hour for supper.
The long journey, which, according
to intimations from the President
himself, was prompted by desire to
set a good example for the electorate
throughout the country, has been un-
eventful The special train of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, which left
Washington last night at 10 O'Clock,
arrived at Northampton at 8 o'clock
this morning and. after a brief ex-
change of greetings with few
friends who were on hand at the sta
ton to meet them, the presidential
party motored directly to the Me-
mortal Hall, which is the voting place
for more than 1000 registered voters
of Northampton.
Greeted at Station.
There were probably hundred per-
sons assembled at the station to see
the two most distinguished citizens of
Northampton. In front of the voting
place more than 200 persons, mostly
women, were on hand. There was
handclapping and some cheering. 1t
was as just plain, everyday American
citizens-registered voters of the sec
ond ward of Northampton, that Mr..
and Mrs. Coolidge entered the voting
place.
They went directly to the section of
the hall reserved for second ward
voters and. after announcing their
names. they were furnished with ball
lots. It was an interesting fact that
their ballots were handed to them by

NEW YORK, November Gov. Al
fred E. Smith hopes the voters will
make his wife First Lady of the Land
as a birthday gift.
Today is Mrs Smiths birthday ami
versary and the only other time during
their marriage that election day fell on
November was 10 years ago when her
husband was first elected Governor of
New York.
The election of her husband to the
presidency today, said Mrs. Smith, was
the only thing she wanted. "And," E"
she added, I'm going to get it, too."
Satisfied with the campaign he has
made, Gov. Smith awaited the verdict
of the Nation, confident that he and
his running mate, Senator Joe T. Rob-
inson, would "go together to victory"
Vote at Noon.
The governor and his wife decided
to vote at noon. They had to go to a
stationery store on Forty-eighth street,
near Madison avenue, the polling place
for the precinct in which the Hotel
Biltmore, their city residence, Is To-
Gated. Other members of their family
live in various parts of the city.
In the evening the governor will pay
an early visit to Tammany Hall and
then will hear the returns at the Demo-
cratic national headquarters in the
General Motors Building on Broadway
and later at the Biltmore.

LONDON, November 6.-The Kellogg
BRAND pact renouncing war took prec-
edence today in the address which King
George read from the throne in opening
Parliament.
SMy relations with foreign powers con-
tinue to be friendly" the King began in
deep, clear tones. MY government
have been happy to accept the treaty of
remuneration Of war in the form pro-
posed by the Government of the United
States"
The King welcomed the trend toward
a more peaceful China, voiced Britain'S
fixed po Icy Of full support for the
League of Nations, mentioned the agree
ment with the powers to open negotia-
tions for definite settlement of the
reparations problem and finally wished
the new Emperor Of Japan. whose en-
thronement is about to take place, a
long and glorious reign.
The King said that in anticipation Of
a general scheme for relieving agricul-
ture aid productive industry from the
burden of taxes, they would be asked to
make provision enabling railway COM
panies to make lower charges on i'm
portant traffic Of concern to agriculture
and the coal, iron and steel industries.
Queen Mary today wore the Cullinan
diamond, the largest in the world, and
estimated to be worth up to $25, 900 900.
Speculation was revived over what be-
came of the "other half" of the great
stone.
When the Cullinan diamond was dug
from the earth at the Premier mines at
Cullinan, South Africa, In 1905, 1t was
found that one side was so fiat and
smooth that it was considered to be only
part of much bigger diamond. The
enormous half brother, however, has
never been found.

HOOVER, HOPEFUL,

PALO ALTO, Calf, November g.
With firm hand and hopeful heart,
Herbert Hoover today ended his fateful
battle for the presidency by casting his
vote in polling booth on the campus
from which he set out 33 years ago to
seek his fortune.
His sacred individual act" as a citi-
zen over, he returned to his rambling
Spanish home, overlooking the palm
studded campus of Stanford University,
to await the outcome of the supreme
adventure of colorful career.
Hoover had intended to make his lit
tie suffrage ceremony simple, private
affair, but he found that when candi-
date for the presidency goes to the
polls it is news. The event was wit
messed by throng of university stu

loss, but in 1927 the regraveling done
during the summer did not replace
half of the gravel lost during the long
period of wet weather and muddy
roads in the spring.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1928-05-16

unpaved roads are as follows:
Traffic $50 to 200 cars --$ 523.25
Traffic POI to 425 cars 1885, 554.87
Traffic 426 to 625 cars $1,000 5000
Traffic 626 to 875 cars - 623.40
Traffic 876 to 1850 cars $500 717.87
Traffic 1851 to 1850 cars - 1490.24
Traffic 1851, to 2250 cars - 2187.18
The costs per mile in 1927 were
slightly higher than in former years
on the light traffic routes. This is
due to the cost of snow removal, which
is just as high, and sometimes higher,
where traffic is light. On the routes
with traffic above 1851 cars per day,
the average per mile was slightly less
than in former years. A number of
these routes have been oiled or tarred
and the maintenance of bitumious
treated roads averaged less than on
untreated gravel roads.
Maintenance of the paved routes
averaged $351.89 in 1927. This was
about SIS per mile higher than the
cost in previous years and higher than
the allotment for paved road mainten-
ance in 1928. The figure includes
snow removal, which was unusually
high in 1927, and shoulder repairs
which were higher than usual due to
cloudbursts and heavy rains in many
sections of the state. Snow removal
costs vary each year according to the
weather but shoulder repairs usually
get much less after pavements are
year old or two, so that shoulders
are we'll settled and grass-grown
The figures on both paved and un-
paved roads cover all expenditures
for both roadway and roadside main
tenance, snow removal, marking, etc.
To get the actual cost of gravel road
maintenance, however, deferred
maintenance" charge should be added
for lost gravel. Gravel is washed
away in wet seasons, blown away in
dry seasons, and thrown off the road
by speeding automobiles. In ordinary
years enough regraveling is done by
the maintenance forces to offset this
