Tn his speech formally accept

nomination, Gov. Al Smith
will stress his stand on prohi-
bition, emphasizing that ne
never has urged repeal Of the
Eighteenth Amendment, but
that he feels a proper modifl-
cation on the Volstead law
would do away with bootlegg-
ing and its attendant evils, ac-
cording to his close friends.
The Governor Is said to feel tnat
despite all he has said in the past.
his views on prohibition are largely
misunderstood by voters OF the
country because Of statement
issued from time to time in the
past by his political enemies ana
various reform organizations.
There is one thing more than
any other which arouses Governor
Smith. and that Is to be Represented

The fog was more than 1000 feet up,
and we we're compelled to descend to

the high seas we we're forced to mount
again into the curtain Of fog and with

THE storm abated somewhat and We
occasionally saw few stars. At dawn
we flew across a heavily wooded coun-
