Hooyer-Smith contest has broueh the public to grips again on the
 merits of prohibition and as a by. piotiuct it has vigorously raised the question whether a Catholic should be president. These two volatile considerations, in league with the. long standing farm relieI de5ate, stand as the hub about which the fight has waged, with other issues assuming momentar, importance here and there. To. getaer they explain in advance why Smith and Hoover will lose votes in their own parties and re- cruit heretofore unattainable SUD. poif in the others. They already nave explained away the collapse Of normal geographical political boundaries, a circumstance that finds tho Republican Hoover ear nestly apf .allng for votes in the Democratic south and the Demo. cratic Smith foraging in the sac red Republican precincts of the farmer west.
 New Issue
 To q greGt degree what the vol CTS will do at the polls was within thel range of safe forecast as far pack as tho pre-convention days when the names of Hoover and Smith swept muglcally to the ion among those who were willing to live in the White House. When the. conventions had done their work 1t became inevitable that the dry and overwhelmingly Protcs- 'lant south should vince a lnelaI at the prospect of votlng for the wet and Catholic Gov. Smi.h and his Tammany connexions. It was just as certain that the McNary. Haugen bloc of the farmer west ilould turn upon MT. Hoover as It's foe especially since many tlrmers had voiced their prefer once for former Gov. Lowden of Illinois. In the light of the re- cords and personalities of the two chief standard bearers 1t was equally certain that both parties would ardently court big business. and not without some success. ItI is a commentary on the changed nature of both parties that out 1 standing leaders in the money marts are not as a unit behind either but have given of their favor to both. m
 Whoop and Hurrah
 Above the whoop and hurrah of the party sfalwarts who have la bored vocally to the end that they night obtain. or retain power has sweiled to roaring proportions the cry Of rebellion. the cry of disa approving minorities which notI only will make themselves felt afI

The Nome nugget., 1928-04-21

NEW YORK, GP) - Fragment ary details from the frozen North pieced together revealed the dra- matic story of how the Bremen, successfully groped hlindly thru the fog and fierce blizzard for the continent of its destination.
 An suspicious start developed at the end into battle with the ele- nents.
 As the flyers were some four hundred miles of their course, due partly to the failure of the planes lighting system. for hours the flight was blind, and al one time the plane was only fifty feet from the water. A strange river was said to have been seen, then big mountains, and al last they sighted what appeared to be q sealing steamer. but il proved 10 be the lighthouse on Greenlv Island.
 A blizzard swept the ocean all night and finally the lighting sys- tenn failed. IT. the darkness the flyers were unable to read their in struments, and this was when Cap tain koehIs long experience in night flying in the war stood him and the crew in good stead. Day break gave them an opportunity to correct their direction, and finally, n despair, after fighting fog and storm, they landed, but they did not know where. The plane broke through the ice on the lake The metal propeller was badly bent and the axle of the landing gear was broken.

OYSTERS WILL
Be CULTIVATED
State Will 'Plow' And
Harrow Reefs to
Broaden Scope

Marine "plows" and "harrows"
will be used by the Texas Game.
Fish and Oyster Commission to cul-
tivate the oyster crop on the Texas
coast. The scope Of operations will
extend from Point Isabel, where
large oyster reefs are located, to
the mouth Of the Sabine.
The system which has been tried
by the commission TO make two oys-
tiers grow where only one grew be-
fore has been found all wrong. The
commission now proposes TO extend
the oyster beds. With marine plows
and harrows they will drag the oys-
tiers away from their happy homes,
spread out the reefs, and give each
individual oyster an opportunity to
grow larger, fatter and more luscious.
For over a century the fact has
been noted that the oysters on the
Texas coast refused 10 grow large.
The trouble has finally been dag
noSed as too many oysters trying
10 live in the same place. In other
WO&o@ az oN4bC NOAAAAAAS1AQA mas as
certained that the oyster population
was not taking advantage Of the ex-
t~ensive area of sea bottom which
they could utilize. They prefer 10
live in crowded quarters.
Nature failed 10 provide the oys-
ter with the means whereby II
could get out and forage for food.
The bivalve must spend its life in
n place, existing upon such food
as the sea currents carry its way.
The congestion of oysters on small
reefs limits the food supply for the
individual bivalve. and the state
commission now proposes 70 spread
them out. give them more food, and
provide larger oysters for the Texas
epicures.
Arrangements are being made TO
secure tugs and other necessary
equipment, including plows which
will teal up the oyster beds and
harrows will drag the b~ivalves TO
their new quarters where they are
expected TO Immediately take up the
duty of feeding themselves and rear
ing larger families.
Thousands of small oyster reefs
exist in the Laguna Madre and along
that part OF the coast from the
Rio Grande to Brazos Pass. These
reefs viii be extended by the plow-
ing and narrowing process. and
within a few years Point Isabel is
expected to become one Of the big
oyster shipping points on the Gulf
coast.
The commission discovered the eff
ficacy Of this method as the result
Of a row between oyster men at
Palacios. A contest was being waged
over an oyster reef. and some Of the
contestants in a spirit Of destruction,
got a tug and narrowed the reef.
After three years the number Of
oysters had doubled. and the oyster
men have been too actively engaged
in their regular occupation TO con-
tinue the contest.
