 Reiterating that the shortage in the accounts of Carnes \ would amount to no more than $1,O00. 900, the Home Mission board officers here pointed to Carnes' study of Spanish in recent months and his statements that wonderful oppor- tunities" existed south of the equa- tor as bearing out their belief.
 Meanwhile the office of John A. Boykin. solicitor general of Fulton county was silent on the reported subpoena of prominent Atlanta physician" in the Carnes investiga- ton.

Rockford, H., Sept. 15 R1An- ether of the midwestern tornadoes which already have taken dozen lives in Nebraska and South Dakota this week, dropped out of black skies into Rockford last yesterday. killing at least six persons, injuring 50 and leaving property wreckage estimated at more than five million dollars.
 Sixteen persons were missing when an intensive search of the ruins of factory buildings and private homes was begun in earnest.
 The tornado struck along a three mile strip, demolishing two factories in which several hundred men were at work and destroying many homes.
 The known dead were:

f In their first school inspection of a series which is to include every building In the city, the mayors sur- vey committee yesterday found two vacant classrooms at the Bartlett school, and the Washington school filled to capacity but not overcrowd- ed, former Mayor George A. Quigley. chairman of the committee. reported today.
 The most important decision reached at yesterdays session was to request the keys for the Monroe school. which has been abandoned, the object being to make an inspec- tion with view to determining the cost of conditioning the building and returning it to service. Use of this schoolhouse was discontinued last year after the Robert J. Vance building was completed.
 In the opinion of the mayor. the Monroe building can be put in a good state of repair for less than S50,O00. and it will then afford eight classrooms at about one-third the cost of building a new elementary school.
 In view of the often repeated claims of overcrowded conditions in the elementary schools. the commit teemen were surprised to find the vacant classrooms. and they will sug- gest that they be put in use to effect more even distribution of the pu- pills in the northwestern section of the city.
 Mayor Paonessa had little to say today regarding criticism aimed at him by school committee members. My position is clear" the mayor said. T feel survey will service the interest of the taxpayers. and 1t will therefore continue"

Many Conferences

Hoovers week at Washington has been given over largely to confer cnces with his friends and support CTS. One of those with whom he talked longest was President Cool idge, back from his Wisconsin va cation and ready to help the new leader of his party toward victory.
 Smith, also receiving advice at Albany from many quarters, took time to scotch "a lie in the whisper ing campaign" In direct and dra- matic fashion he furnished the country with documentary evidence that there was no truth in pris vately- circulated story that he had been intoxicated at the Syracuse fair. It was his first open thrust at whispering" a subject about which many of his democratic colleagues have been talking for weeks.
 The governors most unusual statement was the second extraor- dinary contribution within the week to the literature of the campaign of 1928. The first was public pro- nouncement by Republican chairman Work. saying that no self-respecting party headquarters would counten- ance the sort of personal attacks that have been made covertly against both candidates.
