OUTSTANDING
EVENT TODAY
Hoover Forces Predict Com.
plete Vict0ry-Smith Claims
All Delegates

Washington, May 15.-(R-Th.
National political pot was boiling
again today as voters went to the
polls and leaders to conventions tt
augment the rising tide of delegates
to the Kansas City and Houston
conventions.
As they signed their names to the
ballots, these voters had a lot more
to think about than the mere check
beside their favorite candidate, for
things political, both National and
state, were popping in all directions.
There was statement by Secre-
tary Mellon predicting Hoover
would be elected if nominated and
expressing the opinion that the
commerce secretary would make q
good president, some more inter-
preting of the treasury heads Sat-
urday statement on Hoover, sena-
torial delving into Hoover's cam
paign financing and requests for ex-
tending the senate inquiry to Texas,
forecast Of a break in the casts
long "rule Of absolutism," and the
instructing Of another handful Of
delegates for Governor Smith.
The outstanding political event on
today's calendar was the New Jer-
sey primary where 81 Republican
and % Democratic delegates to the
National conventions are at stake.
Although some Lowden delegate
candidates were in the field, Hoov-
er's forces predicted a complete vic
tory. Supporters of Governor
Smith, who picked up six delegates
in the Wyoming convention yester-
day, had claimed all the New Jersey
delegates to Houston.
Mellon Elaborates on Statement
In celebrating on his previous
statement to Pennsylvania Republi-
cans that Hoover seemed to him to
"come closest to the standards we
have set" for the presidency, Secre-
cary Mellon yesterday said he did
not see why this should be open to
various interpretations.
1T is pretty plain English" he
said, after first remarking:
Il think Hoover can win if
nominated. / think he would make
good president"
Hoover supporters had obtained
much comfort from the first Mellon
statement, claiming it practically
clinched Pennsylvania big block Of
70 delegates for him, but the lead
ing Republican candidates foes dis
agreed and emphasized the ''how-
ever" near the end of the statement
meant something entirely different.
This had to do with sending the
Pennsylvania delegates to Kansas
City uninstructed.
Mellon explained yesterday that
the Pennsylvania delegation as "a
organization was never
more harmonious than it is now"
He said at another point that amy
thing can happen"

SUMMER

G. E. Hiser, Ridgeley, w. Va.
Fair spring with all her glories
came and went;
The trees then budding, now with
fruit are bent.
The farmer sees his corn grow day
by day,
He cuts his first big yield of clover
hay.
The forest trees with banners green
parade,
And man and beast both seek their
cooling shade.
The bearded wheat absorbs SOILS
golden hue;
The berries now are turning red
and blue.
o summer, with your fullness we
are blessed;
OF all the seasons, we love you the
best.
The honey-bee doth garner from the
field
The nectar from the buckwheat's
bounty yield.
The bumblebee doth hum a doleful
noise,
AS he is chased around by reckless
boys.
The masonbee is daubing up her
cell,
Where she'll secrete her larva for
a spell.
The tadpoTes in the shadows and
the bOggs i
Are turning into little jumping
frogs.
The seasons each in part make up
the year,
But we're most pleased when sum-
mer time is here.

FRIGDAIRE IN BOATS

Four new $50 United States Coast
Guard cruising cutters, similar to
the Chelan which took to the water
in May will be launched within the
next four months at Quincy, Mass.
All will be driven by turbo-electric
machinery and will carry compile
ment of ten officers and ninety men
each.
Each vessel will have automatic
refrigeration equipment installed in
three cold storage boxes and one ice
cream cabinet, giving it ample pro-
visioning capacity for lengthy oper-
ations at sea.
officers of the Coast Guard are
familiar with this type of refriger-
ating equipment as it has been in
use for many months on the smaller
patrol boats on duty in southern
waters. In the ammunition maga-
zines of twenty rs foot patrol boats,
Frigidaire cooling coils have been
placed to protect the smokeless pow
der, which deteriorates in hot wea-
ther.
Since that time ammunition on
the patrol boats has been kept at a
of 80 degrees, even in
the warmest climates. AS a result
each magazine now always has 12O
rounds of ammunition that can be
absolutely relied upon when need
arises.
In addition to equipment furnished
the Coast Guard service, Frigidaire
has it's product in use
BY the Army, Navy, Marine Corps,
Bureau Of Standards, Post Office De-
Dartment, U. S. Veterans Bureau and
l score Of other divisions in govern
mental service, according to the To-
al representative.

WHAT is AN INDEPENDENT
CITY IN THE UNITED STATES? ?

Independent city" is the name
given to a city in this country which
is not subject to any county gov
ernment. Through it's own govern
ment it performs all the govern
mental activities that are perform
ed by counties for other cities. New
York, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Bal
timOre, San Francisco, Boston. New
Orleans and Denver come in this
class. There is large number of
such cities in Virginia. Among
them are Alexandria, Lynchburg,
Petersburg, Winchester, Richmond.
Hopewell, Fredericks-
burg, Newport News and Bristol.
Washington, D. c., might also be
regarded as an Independent city in
asmuch as it is not in any county.

had an excellent sales response
and it is pointed out that this is
due not alone to the curtains at

do not cling as do those made of

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES

"God," was the subject of the les
son-sermon in all churches, of Christ,
Scientist, Sunday, July 1.
The Golden Text was from Psalms
81, 20 Lord Our Lord, How Excel
lent is Thy Name in All the Earth;
Who Hast Set Thy Glory Above the
Heavens"
Among the citations which COM
prised the 1esson-sermon was the
following from the Bible: "Be still
and know that I am God. will be
exalted among the heather, 1 will be
exalted in the earth. The Lord of
hosts is with us; the God of Jacob
is our refuge" psalms 1910, III
The lesson-sermOn also included
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip

Christian Science God is universal,
eternal, divine love, which changeth
not and causeth no evil, disease, nor
death" (p. 14O.)

Transparent Velvet

Lovely transparent velvet has
found a new outlet in millinery.
White backgrounds with pile of fio-

particularly popular. Medium and

of the fabric itself.
Our Vivid Age
The xividly woven patterns of
the wicker furniture on your porch,
the gaily lacquered bread box in
your kitchen, the restful coIors in
your bedroom are significant evil
dences that the present is a vivid
age. Women's clothes and women's
decorations have brought into har-
mony the castles in which they live.
and the brightly hued cars in which
they travel. Yet it is noticeable
that the modern gait of fashion calls
for a compromise in favor of more
feminine grace and less fussy pre-
and foolish fancy
work than existed when mother
wore a tight-laced corset, carried a
suffrage banner and joined in the
revolt of women. The makers of

down to June 80, 1928, the last day of
the fiscal year just closed, period of
three and half years. there was ex-
pended from the general fund S12,-
6O7025.76. During the same period
of three and half years, the total
income of the general fund was $13,-
312,85967. At the close of business
June 30, 1928, the general fund in
the state treasury was overdrawn in
the sum of S3,065,004.27. At the date
of this certificate, Oct. /, 1928, the
overdraft has increased until it now
stands in excess of S3,550,000.D
The report further states, as read
by Senator Paul: "The expenditures
of general fund moneys by the pres
ent administration for the three and
one-half years from Jan. /, 1925, to
June 80, 1928, aggregated $12,607,-
025.76, or an average of $3,602,007.36
annually, these expenditures aggre-
gate $2,107 026.76 more than the
maximum to which the present adj
ministration is said to have pledged
itself on taking charge of the state
government.
Expenditures by the previous adj
ministration for the like period imme-
diately preceding, from July l, 1921,
to Dec. 81, 1924, were S12,746, 293. 45,
or an annual average Of $3,641, 1882.
The income from the general fund
collected by the administration in
charge from July l, 1921, to Dec. 81,
1924, totaled $40, 268,382.24. The pres
ent administration collected for the
like period ended June 80, 1928, $751;
2,S59.67, or S3,044, 477.43 more than
its immediate predecessor.
"Much of this increase is due to re-
turns from the metal mines tax and to
the item of 1887 ,476.0S collected as in
heritance and interest from the estate
of w. A. Clark"
Senator Paul then stated that of
there had been any saving in running
the business of the state, the addi
tional revenue of the present admin
istration might have been applied to
the state debt" In regard to the
governors recent statement that he
did not have the support of the repub-
lican legislature, Senator Paul, who
has been chairman of the finance and
claims committee of the senate, said
that the governor at the close of the
1925 session had praised the eo-opera-
ton of the legislature.
At any rate the poor Indians went
home insulted, people stayed through
the meeting with hopes Of seeing the
medicine show put on their antics and
Smith was mentioned only where nee
essary.
