When this was brought to the
Rev. Van Nostrand's attention he
issued the following statement:
81 was requested to call at the
office OF Governor Smith at the
capitol, In this city. He read to
me an extract from . letter from
the New York headquarters OF the
Democratic national committee In
which it was stated in substance
that Indiana was in ferment due
to statement made by me in that
State to the effect that the Sunday
following his nomination the Cow
ernor broadcasted over tn radio
and was so intoxicatd that It re.
quired two men to hold him up.
Made Similar Charges
''The Governor asked me e ]
had made that statement. I said
that I had not.
Upon that occasion the Gov.
ernor did not ask me Il ! had
made any similar statements or e
I had made any other statement
concerning him or to the effect
that he had been intoxicated or 70
the effect that he drank.
"I did make the statement In In
diana that I had been informed that
upon one occasion when Governor
Smith had broadcast that he was 20
intoxicated that he had to be sup
ported by two persons.
IT also made the statement In In
diana that I had been informed that
on the Sunday following his nom1nae
ton the Governor went to New York
and that when he was in the Albany
station he had been drinking.
''I also made the statement that In
my opinion If anyone asked the Gov
ernor the direct question as TO
whether or not during his occupancy
of that high office he had used tI1s
toxicating liquors or had been
drinking man that the Governor
would admit that he had done so.
st further stated in Indiana that
I had never lead or heard any de-
NAL by the Governor himself that
he was a drinking man, but the
only denia1s I had heard OF were
made by others and I did not be-
lieve the Governor would deny It it
he were asked the direct question.
There the matter rested today.
Whether Governor Smith Will con.
Germ himself further in the matter
appeared probIematical. He Is de-
voting all his attention at present
to the preparations for his second
major speaking tour, a trio that VIII
take him into the border States next
week. The itinerary probably will
be announced shortly.

BERLIN, Oct. s. - Germany's
mighty mistress of the clouds, Graf
Count Zeppelin, the worlds great
est dirigibIe, is being refueled for
her first transatlantic voyage to
the United States, according to
word received today from Fried
rfchafen.
AS the take-off depends upon the
weather and the completion OF
minor alterations to the interior of
the ship the exact time Of departure
IL still in doubt. The airship may
get away on Tuesday, or the flight
may be postponed 4S hours. all
depending upon conditions.
Safety First
DR.. Hugo Eckener, director of the
Zeppelin works at Friedrichshafen,
fwho will be in charge of the flight,
In acting with the utmost caution
owing to the fact that a number
of passengers will be carried. He IL
determined to follow the rule of
safety first, and will not allow inn
patience to interfere.

be the first time that blue gas has
been used by a dirigible for such a

There was some doubt as to
: whether the German government
would allow its use, but compro'
mise was reached under which Yep
pelius may use it until April l to
test its efficiency and safety.
The fuel supply, which the Graf
Zeppelin will carry, will enable it to

chapter today in his war agar
Again it concerned his personal
habits. Through his counsel. Ed
ward q. Griffin, the Democratic
nominee. trapped into the open an.
other whisper, which has been
goin gtle rounds to the effect that
he once attempted to broadcast over
the radio in an intoxicated condi.
ton.
The story was accredited to the
Rev. Manning e. Van Nostrand,
pastor Of Emmanuel Baptist Church
in Albany. DIR. Van Nostrand
denied making the statement when
questioned in Governor Smiths
office. but in q spirited statement
today he plainly challenged the
Governor on his personal habits.
Called to Face Governor
The latest chapter In the ''whis-
pering campaign" a. revealed in
the statements from Griffin and
from the minister, follows:
Griffin's statement:
"a communication was received
at the executive chamber stating
that the Rev. Manning e. Van
Nostrand, pastor Of the Emmanuel
Baptist Church, Of Albany, N. Y.
had made statement at the Bible
conference held at Winona Lake
Winona, Ind, that Gov. Alfred E.
Smith, OF New York, was SO intoxi
Gated when he was trying to talk
over the radio Immediately after
he was nominated at Houston that
two men had to hold him up.
Immediately upon receipt of this
communication the Rev. Van
Nostrand, at the request Of the
Governor visited him at his office
In the executive chamber. The
Governor in the presence of his
secretary. George b. Graves, and
myself then read the communica.
ton to the Rev. Van Nostrand
giving the name and address of the
writer, and asked Rev. Van Nos
trand the direct question: Did you
ever make any such statement about
me?
Denied by Minister
The Rev. Van Nostrand then
asked the Governor whether the
writer said that the Rev. Van
Nostrand had made the statement
directly to the writer. The Gov
ernor then re-read the letter and
repeated the question. The Rev.
Van Nostrand then said: 81 never
said it."
"Since that time there has been
received the following affidavit.
State Of Indiana, county Of
Carroll.
1.-The undersigned, being first
duly sworn on oath, deposss and
says that he or she on or about
August %, 1928, while in attendance
at a Bible conference held at Wi
mona Lake, Winona, Ind, heard
one DR.. Van Nosterland, sup
posedly from Albany. N. Y, make
statement substantially as fol-
lows:
THAT Mr.. Smith referring to
Alfred e. Smith. of New York; was
so intoxicated when he was trying
to talk over the radio the first sun
day after he was nominated at
Houston that two men had to assist
him In standing. Also that on an
other occasion in the railroad sta
ton where Mr.. Smith was prepar.
ing to hoard train he was much
under the influence of liquor and
was passing it around to men and
ladies in his party.
Made On Public Platform
The deponent further says that
these statements were made on a
public rostrum or platform at Wi
mona Lake. evidently with the in
tent of belittling the character or
the personality Of the said Alfred E.
Smith, who now is candidate for
President of the United States.

train girls to certain "womanly"
needs and desires. Thereafter it
requires some one mans lifetime
time to satisfy these desires. If
women degenerate or go in for
luxury, they are only following
their bent; their training fitted"
them for such paths.
Many men think such paths
natural to women and find them
selves adjusted" when they hang
q diamond dog-collar about the
neck OF q woman who finds her
life adjustments in luxuries from
another's hands. She has given
all she has for all she wants.
That is adjustment. Life learns
such behavior as readily as other
forms.
The two sexes may grow
up together" but they travel
divergent roads. BY the time they
mate they are likely to find
themselves far apart. Even words
have different values; they may
not understand each others lam
guage. But IL their habits have
not been abnormal, and il they
retain the capacity to learn and
the inherent love for knowing,
a whole new world confronts
them. They can begin all over
again, and, as children, explore
together to the ends of their days.
After all, there can be nothing
in a mans world more interest
ing than a woman. That is ''by
nature" polygamous and woman
homogeneous is bioIogic rot and
has no more sanction than the
Divine right OF kings-and will
eventually go into the same dis.
card.
Are women as efficient as men?
Efficient for what? And If not,
why not? Why arm not as ef-
ficient as Charlie Chaplin, or
Arthur Somers Roche, or Jane
Adams?
All normal newborns are eff.
cient. After a few years. little
sister can never become as eff
cient as little brother in many
things. A woman requires
stout heart to dare to compete
with a man. Her own sex says,
You should not; the other sex
says, You cannot" II women
follow the 'teasy" path, 1t is be-
cause that is the only path in
which they have been trained to
show efficiency"
If your water pipe bursts you
do not need ''efficiency": you want
a competent plumber. Same way
in seeking a mate. If good ones
are scarce, 1t must be for lack OF

II it Ii "unwomanly" for girls
to throw stones and run races, it
will be unnatural for them later
to be expected to compete with
men on equal terms.
A boy brought up on Don't
be a sissy will have a behavior
different from that of sister for
whom being sissy is normal be-
havior.
Men and women are emotion
ally different: by training. Tears,
pOuts, whims, tantrums, grow up
bisexually. A boy of 10 comes
into the house crying; he has been
worsted, in fight, His sister
enters crying: worsted in an ar
gumer1t. Each meets with a diff
ferent situation in each parent.
The girls questions on current
events generally call out special
responses from parents: Little
girls are not supposed to know
about business" or, What pos
sible interest can you have in
