MOBILE RESCUED
FIRST BECAUSE
OF CONDITION
Plight and knowledge of Situa-
tion Dictated He Be Given
Preference

Stockholm. July 19.-0P-General
Umberto Mobile. leader Of the Italia
expedition, was rescued from the
Arctic ice before his companions be-
cause all the circumstances, includ-
ing the generals condition and his
knowledge of the situation. made it
advisable to rescue him first, his
Swedish rescuers have explained.
Captain Tornberg, leader Of the
Swedish Spitzbergen expedition, re-
ferring to the rescue of Mobile on
June "a by Lieutenant Einar Lund-
borg, said the lieutenant had orders
to take off one Of the wounded men,
bers of the Mobile party, but which
one was left to his discretion.
Lundborg Explains
Captain Tornberg, however, i'm
pressed on Lieutenant Lundborg that
it was desirable to save Mobile first
in order that he might assist them
with information which would be in
valuable in rescuing the other sur
vivors.
Lieutenant Lundborg declared that
he considered Mobiles condition
very serious, and, as conveying
Natalie Ceccioni, the other injured
man. who was much heavie-. to the
landing place would have taken more
time, he thought it better to take
Mobile first, rather than Ceccioni.
The latter, in the meantime, was
carried to the landing stage to await
Lundborg's return.
It was on this return flight that
Lundborg's plane upset in landing
and he was unable to make any
further rescues.

Political Pacifists
Control LeaguerS
Ready to Accept June Primary
Verdict as Final for State
Republicans
Democrats Hopeful Those Dis
satisfied Will Rally to
Smith Support

Nonpartisan League leaders who
favor accepting the results Of the
June primary election as final, won
a victory at conferences here yes
terday, last night and this morning.
Some party leaders favored an
alignment whereby a contest would
be made for the three places on the
state industrial commission for
which Independents were nominated
at the June primary. Others, led by
Senator Lynn j. Frazier, opposed the
idea on the ground that it would do
no good and might have an adverse
affect on the candidates. Of Nonpar-
tisans who were successful at the
primary.
Although no final decision was
reached, failure to act was taken as
a victory for those who feel the
Nonpartisans should accept the re-
suit of the primary election and join
in an effort to elect the Republican
ticket in the fall.
Support for Hoover
This would mean united support
for Hoover as the Republican presi-
Dental candidate, although some
Nonpartisans make no effort to con-
ceal their dissatisfaction with the
Republican choice for president.
Democrats interested in the elec-
tion Of Smith as president were said
to have been interested in the con-
ference here in the hope that DEM
ocrat-Nonpartisan coalition might
be arranged on the state ticket.
Democratic hackers of this idea
were said to be hopeful that it would
lend strength to the Smith campaign
in North Dakota.
The deficit piled up by the Nom
partisan executive committee in the
primary campaign remains a deficit.
So far as could be learned today no
plan had been agreed Upon for rails
ing the money. One of the principal
reasons for calling the meeting here
was the executive committees ankle
ty to put it's financial house in or
der. The deficit was said to be some
thing less than $1,000.
Convention Discussed
Some discussion was had as to the
advisability of calling a state con-
vention of Nonpartisans to decide
what attitude should be taken in the
fall election. It appeared to be the
general opinion however, that the
demand for such a meeting had not
been expressed in sufficiently strong
terms to warrant such action.
Senator Frazier and some of the
other leaders attending the conven-
tion planned to leave Bismarck to-
day.

HOOVER HEARS
TWO VIEWS ON
FARM PROBLEM
Nebraska Governor Insists
Equalization Fee Principle
Must Be Endorsed
SURVEY PLEDGE SEEN
No Specific Plan to Be Out
lined in Speech of Accept
ance, Friends Say

Aboard Hoover Train, Cheyenne,
Wyo., July 49, @ Friends who
have conferred with Herbert Hoover
during his westward journey to Cali
fornia have gained the impression
that the Republican presidential
nominee does not intend to advance
any specific plan of farm relief in
his acceptance speech at Palo Alto
next month.
These same friends Dc lare. how
ever, that Mr.. Hoover is thoroughly
alive to the fact that the c, ndition
Of agriculture presents a problem
which calls for solution. and that he
will pledge himself to make q thor
oughgoing survey of the whole stu
alton and to dedicate his best efforts
to the formulation Of 4 practical
plan Of aid.
Details Of a specific plan likely
will be left for further study, with
the possibility that as the campaign
progresses proposals will be out
lined, with the first Of A. e probably
touched upon when the nominee
speaks at his old home at West
Branch, Ia, late next month.
Gets Conflicting Views
AS he has Travelled across the con-
tinent during the past five days, Mr..
Hoover has received somewhat con-
flicting views from leaders in the
farm movement as to just what the
situation in the corn belt really is
as it bears upon his own political
fortunes and those of his party.
Nowhere was this more pro-
nounced than in Nebraska, where
Governor Ad3m MeMullen insisted
that only the equalization fee, or its
equivalent, would satisfy the farm
ers and keep them in the Republi-
can ranks in November. Charles A.
McCloud, Republican national COM
mitteeman for that state and other
political leaders declared that the
equalization fee principle was out
and that there was no doubt about
Nebraska giving a substantial ma
jority for the Hoover Curtis ticket.
AS his train sped through the
foothills Of the Rockies today Mr..
Hoover continued his conferences
with political leaders, meeting a
delegation from Utah md having as
his guest on his private car Governor
Fred B. Balzar Of Nevada. who rode
across the state with him.
Funeral Changes Plans
Because of the death Of Mrs.
Hoover's father, C. D. Henry, all
plans for homecoming celebrations
at San Francisco and Palo Alto Fri
day have been abandoned. The spe-
cial train will 70 from Oakland
across the Dumbarton bridge to San
Francisco, and then proceed directly
southwark to Leland Stanford uni
versity, where Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover
will attend the funeral Of Mr.. Henry
during the afternoon at the univer-
sity chapel.
At every stop the special train
makes Mrs. Hoover receives mes
sages Of coincidence from friends and
those in official life. Among these
was . message from the president
and Mrs. Coolidge. Mrs. Hoover has
been greatly shocked by the death Of
her father. and will remain in Sc
clusion in her compartment until she
reaches home.
