DRY DEMOCRATS
WILL BACK HOOVER
Southern Conference Draws
Up Campaign Program in
Opposition to Smith.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ASHEVILLE, N. c., July l9.--Fornlal-
iy declaring their intention to work and
vote for the election OF Herbert Hoover,
Republican candidate for President of
the United States. the dry Southern
anti-Smith Democrats" meeting In con-
ference here today adopted statement
of principles and aims.
Formal organization also was COM
pleted and the meeting decided that
committee OF two from each Southern
state, including Oklahoma, Missouri
and West Virginia should be selected to
carry ON the campaign against Gov
Alfred z. smith OF New York, the DEM
ocratic candidate.
The statement OF principles carrying
the meeting and the grounds on which
they oppose Smith Is some 2.000 words
in length. It accuses Gov. Smith OF
failing to keep faith and declares un-
dying opposition to him because OF his
stand on the prohibition question and
his connection with Tammany Hall.
One section is devoted to Tammany.
High Praise for Hoover.
The statement concludes with the fol-
lowing paragraphs:
'4As the most direct and effective way,
indeed. the only way to insure the de-
feat of this wet Tammany candidate Is
that our dry Southern Democratic
voters cast their ballots in the coming
election for Herbert Hoover. who In the
words Of DR.. E. Y. Mullins, precedent
OF the Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary and lifelong Democrat, Is
the world citizen, the great humani-
tartan, the great organizer, the man
OF world vision, the man with expert
knowledge of flood control Of the Mis-
sissippi, the man nominated by the
people. not the politicians and the man
whose personal habits, conscientious
convictions and political creed OF pro-
llibition are In harmony with his plat
form and of the right side
I'm conclusion, we would emphasize
once again the imperative duty OF all
anti.Smith Democrats of voting for our
dry Democratic senatorial. congressional
and state nominees in order that our
Southern Democracy may come ont OF
this campaign freed from the taint OF
the wet Tammany defilement. but with
its control Of the State governments
and with Its congressional representa-
ton unimpaired."

RELIEF FROM HEAT
UNCERTAIN HERE
Cool Weather of New York
State May Not Reach This
Far South.

Another day or 50 of hot weather
loomed here today. due to uncertainty
that Washington would share in the
moderating breezes now favoring Sec
tions to the north.
Forecaster Mitchell said there was q
possibility that thundershowers would
develop locally tonight or tomorrow. but
even these would provide but temporary
respite, he thinks. The temperature to-
day was expected to approximate yes
terday's maximum of 90 degrees, al-
though partly cloudy skies might aid in
curbing the suns relentless glare.
Capital on Border Line.
MIR. Mitchell had hoped that shifting
winds and thunderstornls from the
north. now prevalent IN New York
state and vicinity. would reach down
south as far as the District OF Column
bia, but study Of his weather map to-
day led him to entertain grave doubts
about 1t.
washington is just on the border
line between the changing conditions
to the north and the warm area below"
the forecaster explained. 1T Is dinlcult
to determine accurately whether the
northern disturbance viii be able to
prevail against the high pressures down
here. Generally fair weather. qualified
by partly cloudy conditions, seems as
snred In this vicinity today and tomor-
row."
The northern area of thundershowerS
was fairly sure to extend as far SOUTH
ward as Atlantic City, he said, but just
how much farther 1t would SO Is mat
ter for speculation.

A freak rainstorm swept across part
of Montgomery County yesterday after
