 Harbor craft swung into line and made lane of dipping flags and shrieking sirens as the Macom pointed its nose toward the Battery and steamed up the bay. On the upper deck stood the crew of the monoplane Friendship, waving a greeting.
 Rain. which had been falling throughout the morning, ceased jus, before Miss Earhart and her com. panions boarded the tug, but the skies were murky.

Hoover admits grave abuses have occur

Gov. Smith reveals lack of COM

tress," the Senator declared. "He is
city-minded. He cannot have a sincere
sympathy with the farmers fight for
higher food prices. Herbert Hoover Is
a man of renowned ability and broad
vision. He was reared on an Iowa
farm, where he learned the farmers
problems.
Gov. Smith has assailed the Repub-
lican party for corruption and the oil
scandal. Corruption in Office Is de-
plorable. I would be, and have been,
quicker to condemn corruption in my
own party than in the opposing party
But crime is personal: the blame does
not belong to the party. History does
not condemn Thomas jefferson, a truly
great man, because the Vice President
in his cabinet was Aaron Burr, a
traitor"

LACKING in COURAGE
Senior Virginia Senator Attacks
Nominees Contact With "Mal-
administration" Here.

Herbert Hoover lacks courage to carry
out his convictions in the opinion OF
Senator Carter Glass of Virginia, who
in a radio address here last night
over WRC said in referring to the Re-
publican nominee, mo honest man with
the courage of his convictions could
have touched elbows with the treason
able crowds in Washington and silently
acquiesced in the frightful maladminis-
tration with which they literally shocked
the world"
Senator Glass said he believed Hoover
was a gentleman and an honest man,
but added II cannot believe he is a
brave man."
The Virginia Senator sharply criti-
cized the Republican nominee for the
statement that "the record of these
seven and a half years constitutes a
period of rare courage in leadership and
constructive action"
II could wish that Mr.. Hoover had
never said that" Senator Glass said.
IT would like to think he does not be-
lieve that. If he does he exhibits
degree of insensibility unsuited to any
man who aspires to the presidency of
the United States"
