INDIANA VOTING TODAY AFTER HOT. PRIMARY BATTLE.
Hoover and Watson Con. test for Hoosier Vote
 Campaign Last Minute

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May &. A strenuous battle of ballots is on today between Secretary or Commerce Herbert Hoover and Senator James E. Watson for this States 33 votes in the Republl- can National Convention for the Presidential nomination. Ine campaign that led up to the primary election today has at traeted National interest.
 Senator Watson ended his cam paigning at the last minute last night with a radio address in which he appealed for the sui frage of the Republicans voters of the State.
 The interest in the Democratic primary is largely centered on the candidates for Governor and United States Senator. Evans Woollen, Indianapolis banker, will get the thirty delegates to the Democratic National Conven- tion without a contest. The law does not permit names to be wrlt- ten in on the ballots, and when attempted it invalidates the vote.

CLEVELAND. Ohio, May & While wars and rumors of wars make it expedient not to discour- age all preparations for National Defense, the trend of thought among nations, particularly in Flu. rope, is in the direction of per manent peace, British Ambassador Esme Howard declared before the World Conference of International Justice in session here. He ex- pressed the opinion that as the Powers become more accustomed to the idea wars belong to the past barbarous age, they undoubt. edly will be able to discard naval and military armament entirely but this will be accomplished little by little.

NEW YORK, May 8.-Herbert Hoover, if nominated by the Re- publican Party as it's Presidential candidate will make his cam paign largely through the med ium of motion pictures and the radio, according to the announce ment of his leaders. The plan was prepared by Fox, one of the New York Hoover campaign lead CTS, who says Hoover has ap- proved the plan.
 Motion pictures showing Hoov- er's activities in the Belgian war relief, Russian child feeding and Mississippi River flood relief work will be assembled into film pro- grams and give pictorial presen- tation of his humanitarian work.
 Fox said, I've are going into the fight campaigning with movies and radio; the personal appearance of candidates on the platform is a thing of the past. !"

 PRIMARY FIGHT
Commerce Secretary Gets Free States Preference
 Bruce Renamed

BALTIMORE, May s. - The Republican Presidential prefer ence vote for Secretary Herbert c. Hoover, the renomination by the Democrats of United States Senator William Cabell Bruce, the nomiation by the Republicans of former Gov. Philip Lee Colds borough as that party's candidate for Senator and the renomination of the five Democratic and one Republican Representative in Congress, were the outstanding facts in yesterdays primary cleo tions.
 The Democrats did not vote on a Presidential preference, but delegates favorable to the nom ination of Gov. Alfred E. Smith will be selected at a State Con vention.
 The Democratic Congressman renominated were T. Alan Colds borough, William P. Cole, Jr., Vincent l.. Palmisano, J. Charles Lithicum and Charles w. Gam brill. The Republican renominate was Frederick N. Zihlman.
 Of even more interest to the politicians of the State than the strength of the Congressional delegations was the contest in which Republican National Com mitteeman William Jackson em- erged victorious for the control of the State Conevntion despite the efforts of a group. including former Senator O. B. Weller, to oust him from his committee post by putting forward candidates for National delegates from Mary land to be c'nl hyAthe State Convention who would choose a National Committeeman.
 Hoover Only Candidate
 In the primary Hoover was the only candidate for the Presi- dential preference of either par ty. Republican voters either cast their ballots for him or for an uninstructed delegation. Returns from nearly all precincts showed 22,00O for Hoover and only A. 600 for an uninstructed delega- tion.
 Senator Bruce received 2S,77O votes for renominaton in the Democratic primary to 4,450 for Miss Virginia Peters Parkhurst, his dry opponent.
 Former Gov. Goldsborough was unopposed for the Republican nomination for Senator.

AS you may know, the seasons south
of the equator are reversed in time from
those north of the line. When we who
live in the North have Winter those
who live in the South have their Sum-
mer. But in latitude 81 degrees south
there is little to distinguish Summer
from Winter except the length of the
days. The short Summer means mere
ly longer days, while Winter ushers in
many a month of short and dark days
and longer nights It is always cold in
this region. The average temperature
is about "a degrees, or degrees below
freezing. The highest temperature ever
observed down there was only So de-
grees and the lowest 40 below zero.
