 go to work. He has been told by countless political friends that the country was dissatisfied with the present administration and would rally to bring him back to the White House.
 Informed persons here have known for some time that MT. Coolidge regarded this fantastic dream. He has told them that the republican nomination was worth nothing to anyone except President Hoover. The party strife which would result from any attempt to wrest the nomination away from the Hoover forces would produce a split which would make defeat al- most inevitable, as it did in the Taft t-Roosevelt fight in 1912.
 Friends of President Hoover, who became annoyed at the con- stant talk of drafting Coolidge" undertook recently to sound out the former president and returned con- vinced that MT. Coolidge would per- init his friends to take no such course.
 Publication of the Coolidge magazine article to-day was gem erally regarded as definitely clos ing the door to any possibility of such situation arising.
 At the White House, immediate comment was withheld except that it was said MT. Hoover had not known in advance about the Cool idge article. It was evident how ever, that some of those closest to MT. Hoover were pleased at this turn of affair. They believed that this development would clear away most of the lingering doubts among republican party workers and stim- ulate them to concentrate on pre- pairing for the coming campaign to reelect him.
 Some noted that the Coolidge arr ticle never mentioned MT. Hoover by name, always referring to ~the president" One prominent demo- crat said it looks like another re- publican family affair and we don't want to mix into it but as I under stand the article it is just another I do not choose to run statement which leaves the door wide open.'
 An optimistic report of the polit- ical and economic outlook in Is states of the west was given to President Hoover to-day by James Francis Burke, counsel for the re- publican national committee.
 Burke has just completed a tour through the farm districts to the Rocky mountain region and the Pacific coast.
 "I found everywhere the fore gone conclusion that MT. Hoover , will be renominated," Burke said There was also a growing impres. reason: That the whole economic world has been going through an | illness and that here is one old fashioned physician who has never | left the nations bedside"

 to Relief Fund
CARDS IN EFFECT THURS

For the first time since the un- employment relief system has been in effect, the employees of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Company, Waterbury division, have consented to become contributors to the fund through the medium of pledges. This in- formation was obtained today at the unemployment relief head quarters.
 Chairman William M. Harris of the relief committee, when inter viewed, admitted that the employees of the local division of the railroad have consented to sign pledges 10 the unemployment fund. Further questioned, he also admitted that this Is thez first time that the committee has been able to get signed pledges from the railroad employees.
 Commenting on the willingness of the railroad employees to sign pledges at this time, Chairman Harris stated that the example set by them will undoubtedly be fol- lowed by employees of other large concerns who have heretofore fail ed to cooperate in the citywide drive to relieve the suffering or the unfortunate men out Of work and the families which depend up- on them for support.
 The new pledge cards will go .n- to effect on Thursday. Chairman Harris said today that the. cards are coming in signed in satisfactory numbers.

Leaders of both the democratic and republican parties today Der rused with great interest the set up of the candidates names on the election machines for the coming election on Tuesday, October 9th. Registrar of Voters Henry O'Con- nor and Thomas F. Di1lane today completed the work of laying out the order of names on the ma. chimes and the setups arranged by them were the occasion of much discussion.
 Of course the mayor, controller, city clerk, tax collector, town clerk, city sheriff and registrar of voters will face each other, re- spectively, on the voting machines. But in the other layouts there Is much food for thought and specu- lation.
 For instance, in the lineup of the aldermen, the democratic can- didate for alderman, Peter Griffin, will see his name directly over that of Republican Leader Alderman Charles Schmidt. The democrats will hold the top lever this year. Therefore, continuing down the line of aldermen, Alderman George Guilfoile will be over Alderman c. Arthur Dubois, Alderman John Derwin will be over the g.o.p. nominee, Alderman Joseph Will helm, Alderman Ernest P. Belval will be over Oscar LaCroix. Alder man Charles Schnitman will be over George Kingston, Alderman Charles Sciullo will be over Alder man Pasquale Perriello. Aldermen John Bendler will be over Fred

ening.
 In other words, he said, on the city's hilly streets where it was GUS tomary in the past at the finish of every heavy rain storm to ex- pend hundreds of dollars to carry back dirt washed off the thorough fares and to rebuild the streets due to severe downfalls there are now no washouts and the money used for making repairs can now be expended, with much saving, for purchasing oil to take care of the situation.
 The oil, Mayor Hayes pointed out, acts as a carrier for the rain water and throws it off the oil sur face of the streets without per- hitting the creation of gullies., In addition to saving the streets, the oil also saves the city thousands of dollars annually in the care of sew CTS. Before the streets were oiled, tons of dirt were poured into the sewers during every rainstorm with the result that the sewers had to be cleaned out at great cost.
 The mayor submitted the follow ing list of streets which have been

 The fires occurring less than two weeks after the opening of college, created a sensation. Hundreds of lightly-clad students rushed from their sleeping quarters to watch or aid the fire-fighters.
 Responding to three alarms. the Dartmouth student fire department. led by Chief William Morton, first strong quarterback, joined with village firemen in the hopeless bat tie against the flames.
 While the fire ragged it became known that $250 belonging to Thomas Maskilieson of Quincy. Mass. varsity baseball player, was in his. room on the third floor.
 Risking his life, Wilbur Ferry of Crosse Pointe, Mich, Dartmouth athlete, raced into the blazing building, groped his way up two flights of tottering stairs, recovered the money and brought it to safety.
 Practically every occupant of the house lost all his personal belong ings.
 Davis, the jewelry salesman who was an overnight guest at the house, had a sample case contain ing jewelry valued at $5,000. He reported that he saved virtually all of this.

He said that the tests which revealed a percentage of from tN to two ane one half, was demonstration that no wilful violation had been made. He ask ed for the discharge of Alexander.
 The contention of Pros. Atty Jo- seph E. Talbot was that the law had been violated and Alexander should be found guilty and pun ished. The beer was consigned to local places of business.

 The board voted to use the sur plus arising from the Hamilton park pavilion sinking fund to pay off some of the funds due on con- tracts for devices in Lakewood park. The sinking fund is near $15,000 now and it is permissible. when the amount goes over the s15,OO0 mark to apply the excess to park improvements. There are several amusements in Lakewood park that have not been paid for and it was thought that it would be a good idea to pay off some of the contracts.

WHEAT PRICE RISE
PLEASING FARMERS
Anticipated Shortage Of Bread
Grain in Europe Seen as
Primary Cause

Chicago, Oct. 31-(R-Good news
was current for farmers and other
holders of wheat Saturday.
Reports were circulated that buy
ers of the worlds breadstuffs will
have to turn to the United States and
Canada for large quantities Of wheat
before the next harvests Of the north
ern hemisphere. These reports said
the grain bins Of Europe held only
four weeks supply.
This feeling of an impending short
age. or at least of restoration OF
normal relationship of world supply
and demand, apparently had its ef-
feet on the trading on the Chicago
Board of Trade Friday. Prices went
to the seasons highest peak. Future
deliveries rose from 2h to 2as cents
a bushel. May wheat closing at 641s.
Wheat has been crawling steadily
upward since the low was established
Oct. S. Future quotations are now II
cents, or more than 80 per cent, above
that low figure, and corn and rye
have had even more spectacular ad-
vances.
THE recent upward trend in grain
markets has been justified by the de-
mand and Is q condition we have been
working toward for some time, said
George s. Minor Of the Grain Stabil'
ization corporation. I'VE who have
been watching the turn Of events, are
naturally quite elated at the general
improvement this means, not only ir
the country but In creating more
business activity"

AT THE MOVIES
CAPITOL THEATRE

Eddie Cantor's memorable entry in
to the motion picture armament by
making "Whoopee" has been eclipsed
in "Palmy Days." the famous comics
second screen vehicle which will be
presented by Samuel Goldwyn at the
Capitol theatre on Monday.
Surrounded by myriads Of feminine
oulchritude Pogany settings, an out
standing cast and a story in which
Cantor collaborated with Morrie Rys-
kind and David Freedman, the star OF
"Palmy Days" projects himself from
hilarity to uproariousness IN a series
of ingenious Cantor situations.
Edward Sutherland, who rose to his
mighty megaphone status after as
sisting Charlie Chaplin In "A Woman
of Paris and since directing twenty
five comedy successes, has inspired q
dash and. movement in Cantor's lat
est endeavor that gathers whirlwind
momentum as it approaches Its side
splitting climax.
More than five thousand applicants
appeared for the "Palmy Days
chorus when production began. Fifty
girls were accepted as the most beau
tiful, and the gorgeous ensembles IN
which they appear give unique en-
hancement to story continuity
through which Cantor plunges goggle-
eyed.
In a startling swimming pool set
designed by Willy Pogany, the chorus
engages in applause-provoking frolics
led by three Olympic mermaids, each
an aquatic champion. They are Olive
Hatch, Southern California 10O-yard
champion; Georgia Coleman, national
diving champion, and Dorothy Poyn-
ton, runner-up to Miss Coleman.
Youthful Barbara Weeks sings, dances
and laughs her way through the pic
ture as an accomplice and coadjutor
to Cantor and the elongated Char
lotte Greenwood. "Palmy Days
boasts the presence of three former
musical comedy stars. First, of course,
is Eddie Cantor, who ended several
years as star Of musical shows with
the Ziegfeld production, "Whoopee." "
Charlottee Greenwood, Cantor's foil,
starred in such stage productions as
80 Long Lefty" "Linger Longer Let
ty," 1.-The Tx Tok Man Of o." and
the Ritz Revue" Walter Catlett.
completing the trio has been on the
stage for several years.
