weeks ago by Wendell Wobido. the
German aviator who conceived the
strange craft. it was pushed down.
into the little lake in front Of its
hangar and floated about while
the startled spectators looked on.
Then it skinned across the wa:

refused to take to the air. This
was due to faulty motor. Dobido
said. Now the motor has been ad--
justed and the queer looking craft
is to have another public debut. .
The vehicle does not resemble

Popular Issue Parties Can
Exploit Before Election

With the legislative record of
the first Hoover Congress wide
spread issue, the electorate OF
eight States go to the polls to
day to choose local and national
party candidates for next NO
Vember's elections.
Senatorial contests in Colorado,
Louisiana, Michigan and South
Carolina feature the days bal
loting. In all four States and
in New Hampshire, Vermont.
Arizona and Washington as well,
the two major parties will choose
candidates for governor, for
- membership in the House Of
Representatives and for State
offices.
Convention in Delaware
The primaries today will be
followed by one tomorrow in
Georgia, while in Delaware the
Republican party meets today in
convention to select a senatorial
nominee along with State
slate.
The outcome of the primary
contests will have little effect on
national politics, except where a
seated Senator may be retired to
private life. In the contests to-
day and tomorrow, Senators 10.
seph E. Ransdell CD OF
Louisiana, William j. Harris Oo
Of Georgia, Cole Blease CD OF
South Carolina, Daniel 0. Hast
ings (R.) of Delaware, Henry
w. Keyes (R.) of New Hamp-
shire, and James CouzenS (RO
of Michigan are seeking another
term. All are favored for renomi-
nation, but Ransdell, Harris and
Blease face stiff battles.
Couzens Faces Fight
With the. state Anti-Saloon
League friendly toward his op-
ponent, Senator CouzenS may
have a battle with Chase E. Os-
born, former governor Of Michi-
gan, for the Republican victory,
but political seers favor the mil
honaire incumbent.
In South Carolina, Senator
Blease is meeting former Repre-
sentative James F. Byrne in a run
off primary. Blease ran well
ahead Of Byrne in the first
primary and his friends say he
will be renominated. A victory for
either insures election.
Watching for Issues
Political leaders were watching
these State primary battles solely
to determine what issues interest
the electorate. The Democratic
party thus far has used as its big
weapon a. ceaseless attack on the
Hoover administration.
In Colorado, where Senator
Fhipps (R. announced his re-
tirement, there is a real struggle
for his toga. William V. Hodges,
former Republican national treas
urer, and George H. Shaw. Denver
lawyer, seek the Republican nomi-

VITALITY IS LOW
 AMONG WORKERS
 AT FOUR O'CLOCK
Fatigue During This Zero Hour Can be Overcome by
 Sugar

Finishing the days work dead tired' is neither wise nor necessary. Everybody knows that fatigued system is readily susceptible to the common ills. To maintain vitality during the last half of the day is therefore essential, not only for the sake of health but efficient work.
 One of the simplest ways to com- bat fatigue is eating a food or drinking a beverage that contains refined sugar. Candy, ice cream, cookies and cakes are ideal in this respect. Best of all. they can be bought readily and cheaply every where.
 Medical men have made many ex- periments with workers and sugar foods in mid afternoon and have found the results most satisfactory. The sugar quickly nourishes the body without taxing the digestive system. When the body is nourished in this way, fatigue disappears.
 Ssch sweet snacks as those pre- viously mentioned can be kept in ones desk and eaten while at work. For a sweet beverage. glass of water containing sugar - the "athlete's cocktail" Ii is most in- vigorating. Many famous athletes drink this prior to hard game. Most foods are more delicious with refined sugar. The Sugar Institute.

 Wheat and Cotton Growers

Washington, Nov. 3 (UP)-Mil- are wasted by farmers annually in over producing crops. the federal farm board said Saturday in new plea for acreage reduction.
 1ntensifying it's campaign for acre reduction in wheat and cotton, the board issued q circular on over pro- duction which it is sending to CO., operative, state agricultural colleges, farm groups. and farmers. "One thing successful manufac- turers learned a long time ago." the board said, was that they did not make money when they produced more than they could sell at a profit So they adopted q policy of adjusting production to demand. It the same time doing everything they could 10 increase the demand"
 In the case of wheat. the board advocated q reduction of acreage to meet only the domestic demand and that the American farmers ceasa looking to the export market to dis pose of his surplus crop.
 On cotton. the board said it did not find the same disparity in cost between the domestic and foreign producer, and said it believed tho American farmer could continue cX- porting cotton with profit.
 However" it added. There is serious surplus in cotton at present and for the next few years sharp curtailment in cotton production will be likely to bring the growers more money than they would get for the quantity they are now producing"
