Chicago, Nov. 7.-R)-Vice Pres.
ident Elect Charles Curtis arrived
in Chicago this morning on his way
to Washington after voting yester-
day 1t his home in Topeka, Kansas.
He had arisen not long before his
arrival in Chicago and had not been
notified of his election until this
morning when Sanford FARRELL, rep
resentative Of the Republican ma
tional committee, informed him Of
the Republican landslide. Mr.. Cur
tis had retired last night with
strict orders not to be disturbed no
matter which way the election
turned.
That's gre att" was the Kansas
senator's remark % Q smile beamed
over his face, and for : few min
utes he stood in the doorway Of his
state room, clad only in his pajamas,
receiving congratulations Of his fel-
low passengers.
Il am gratified with the returns, I"
the senator said. "Mr. Hoover
made = wonderful campaign. Per-
sonally, am grateful to the Amer
lean people for the splendid endorse
ment given the Republican ticket"
Mr.. Curtis was met at the station

lawyer, and other friends with whom
he chatted until time for his depart

CONGRATULATES HOOVER
Second Political Loss in Long
Public Career Is ON Wife's
Birthday
CONGRATULATES HOOVER

New York, Nov. 7.-(R-Alfred
E. Smith has fought the greatest
battle Of his long public career, and
has conceded his defeat.
Although returns were not COM
plete. he had admitted today that his
hopes for the presidency had been
dashed by an overwhelming vote for
Herbert Hoover, his Republican op-
ponent. But he went down smiling,
say the friends who stuck with him
to the last, and now seeks ITO be left
alone for a while"
Surrounded by members of his
family, the four times governor of
New York had planned to stay at
his hotel today preparing for the
trip back to Albany, where he will
vacate the governors chair Decem-
Der 81. He probably will 60 to the
state capital tomorrow and rest
while before taking a vacation trip
with Mrs. Smith, who was by his
side almost constantly throughout
the long and arduous campaign.
Congratulates Hoover
Governor Smith was not long in
sending his congratulations to Mr..
Hoover. Soon after midnight he
dispatched the following telegram to
his opponent at Palo Alto, Calf:
II congratulate you heartily on
your victory, and extend to you my
sincere good wishes for your health
and happiness and for the success of
YOUR administration"
This was all the New York ex-
ecutive had to say for publication
last night during whirlwind dash
about his native New York catching
election returns on the fly. Visits
were made tn. the Seyenty-first regi-
ment armory, temporary headquar-
ters of Tammany Hall; to Franklin
D. Roosevelt's headquarters in the
Biltmore, and to Democratic nation
al headquarters in the General Mo-
tors building, where the Hoover tele-
gram was made public, and the
Democratic nominee finally motored
back to his hotel shortly before
o'clock this morning.
At 2:15 a. IN. he kissed each one
of his children good nicht and cheer
ily announced that he would see
them in the morning. Chairman
Raskob and several old cronies also
were among the last to leave his
suite.
Wild Goose Chase
It was q wild goose chase the gov
ernor led newspaper men around
New York, and it reminded many
who accompanied him on his CAM
paign trips about the country of
some Of the largest crowds they had
had to battle to keep up with the
fast-moving candidate. The largest
crush was experienced at Democratic
headquarters, where it seemed as If
everyone walking along the street
took the liberty to pay the place a
visit during the governors presence
In admitting the loss of his second
fight in q political career that has
run quarter of century, Governor
Smith found himself in the unusual
situation Of suffering the setback
on his wife's birthday. While receiv-
ing returns at the General Motors
building the governor and Mrs.
Smith were taken to Chairman Ras-
kob's office before huge birthday
cake. 1t was a touching scene as
the two glanced at the three tiers
that made up the delicacy, upon
which were figures portraying inn
portant milestones in the life Of the
Smiths.
