Borah of Idaho, left here early today for Norfolk to de- liver his second appeal of the cam- paign for Herbert Hoover's presi- dential fight to the electorate of the Old Dominion state. The speech. the second of the five speeches he will mako during the last week of the campaign. will be delivered tonight.
 The senator last night in Charles ton scussed a wide range of cam paign issues. but dwelt on foreign relations, subject of great personal interest because he heads the im- portant senate foreign relations committee.
 Hoover "Pledged"
 Two phases of the nations for eign policy, the proposal to cancel the foreign war debts to the United states and the relations between this country and the Latin and South American countries-drew most of the senator's attention. He declared that Hoover was pledged" in oppo- sition to the cancellation of the war debts and will carry out the letter and spirit of the republican platform of friendly and peaceful negotia- tons on all controversies between the United States and Latin Ameri- can countries."
 Hoover was described by the sen ator as 'equipped by his life record to handle the foreign relations ques- tions confronting the United States" 1"
 Governor smith drew fire from Mir. Borah on prohibition and the tariff. On the two issues the demo. cratic candidate was charged by the senator with having "changed his positions during the campaign for political gain." Dorah also called up- on the governor to find out if they would support his stand for ''prohi- bition repeal and public manutac- ture and sale of liquor"

@ maay football fans from this etty have oppressed the wish to TO to otaplsten next Sunday to see the seetAal gams between the Nutmegs and tho staten Island team. that Msnassr Henry zehrer of the locals has seastsd negotiatiens with tho of- hcisls sf tho New Haven railroad to have tho excursion train stop at the Berlin railroad station.
 The railroad requires a guarantee q 100 tickets in order to have the tsain stop. and from the present ap- pearances it looks as if there will be at least that many to make the trip.
 The cry here in New Britain has always been that the fans here needed 2 winning team in order to give support to the project. If that s true then managers Of the Nut. meg team should be rolling in wealth instead Of being in the hole" as they are at the present time.
 The team has already scored five victories. all by impressive scores. Teams that in former years have either held New Britain to a tie or have beaten the local eleven. this year. have felt the sting of defeat at the hands Of the Hardware combi- nation.

 at Hospital.

Doctors who have not qualified with modern methods to aia in ob- stetrics will not be permitted to act in that capacity at New Britain General hospital in the future. &C., cording to an order issued by Dr.. IT. Eben Reeks. superintendent.
 The order, which has been placed on 8 bulletin board in the staff room where all local physicians can see it, reads as follows:
 "Consultants on obstetrical cases in the hospital must be chosen from those physicians conversant with modern methods of obstetricai work
 This ruling is made necessary by the calling in of certain doctors as obstetrical consutants who are not only not members of this or any other hospital staff. but who do not give much or any of their time to this branch of medicine.
 This is deemed unfair to the patient and to the hospital.
 Physicians on our obstetrical service are Drs. D. W. O'Connell. John Purney and Peter W. Fox" The new order takes effect. tm- mediately.

 Asked by Representative Griffin. democrat, New York. if he had ever had occasion to use an emergency field, Lfndbergh said:
 "Yes, sir. If those fields are pro- perly located, or located by person. nel experienced in flying. they are very necessary and convenient in bad weather and even under good weather conditions sometimes"
 The New York member said he did not doubt that emergency land- ing fields are necessary for come fliers, but he always thought that, when Lindbergh started out. he reached his destination without in- teruption.
 Present Hindrances
 Well" the flier answered, '"in OUT air-mail service there are as yet certain conditions which we cannot fly through and land in a dense fog, nor can we fly through sleet. When we strike those conditions, we must either turn around and 70 back or drop down to an emergency field"
 Questioned about sleet on his At- lantic flight. Lindbergh said that he had encountered it but 1t Is very rare to find an area of sleet or fog greater than 1000 miles diameter" He added, When I struck that area on the way across. I still had sui ficient gasoline for over 1000 miles, and after getting through. ! was practically sure of finding sood weather before my fuel supply gave out"
