ELEVEN SWISS
DEAD IN RIOT
Outbreak Quelled After Sol
diers Fire On Mob Following
Socialist Disorders.
BY STEWART BROWN
United Press Staff Correspondent


GENEVA, Nov. 10. = Geneva,
home of world peace efforts, was
heavily guarded by troops today
after an outbreak between Social
lists and anti-Socialists in which at
least IL were killed and 65 were
wounded.
Further trouble was feared today
as the Socialists attempted to or
ganize a general strike in protest
against the massacre.
The trouble started when Social
list demonstrators tried to invade
an anti-Socialist meeting. When
they attacked the hall in the Plain
Palais section of Geneva, where
the meeting was in progress, auth
critics sent truckloads of soldiers
to the scene.
The rioters started parading the
streets, tearing up cobblestones and
loose weapons, and attacked the
troops. After demonstrators had
torn rifles from the hands of the
troops and smashed them against
the pavement the order was given
to the troops to fire with machine
guns.
Seeral rounds were directed al
the pavement, but the SCATTERING
bullets ricocheted and sprayed
among the crowd, authorities said
The crowd fled in confusion
screaming and shouting, leaving
dead and wounded in the streets.
Today police told the United Press
the casualties were IL dead and 65
wounded, most of whom were not
in a serious condition. 1t was fear
ed several more deaths might be
added to the list, however.
The outbreak soon was quelled,
although crowds milled excitedly

HOOVER JUST
TAKING REST
President Relieved To Have
Strain OF Campaigning Over
For All Time.
By HENRY f. MISSELWITZ
United Press Staff Correspondent


HOOVER HOME, PALO ALTO,
Nov. Indefinitely relieved at his
lightened responsibilities since the
Democratic victor, President
Hoover devoted himself to leisure
today.
The chief executive was disap-
pointed at his defeat, but indicated
he was glad the strain of the un-
certainty was over. He was eager
to take a rest.
He was represented as being i'm
patient to become again a private
citizen in the country he had led
for the past four years. He will
seek to turn the nations business
| over to President-elect Franklin D.
Roosevelt in the best possible con-
dition next spring-willing that an
l other try to make it work"
Mr.. Hoover indicated he intend
ed TO remain until late Saturday
at his Palo Alto home. resting. The
change is novel fer the President,
it was admitted, and for a man
| high strung and just at the close
of hard battle, idleness did not
come readily or easily.
He had hundreds of kilograms
and messages TO acknowledge, and
other routine business to handle
but in the main his routine at his
| comfortable Spanish home here
was far from the rigorous schedule
he insisted on maintaining in
Washington.
I'll probably take a ride through
these familiar mountains and val
legs" the President told reporters
but, aside from that there's not
thing on the calendar. And ]
should think you'd be ready fol-
a few days off to take it easy
yourself"
1--WE wouldn't have to worry
about your doing something's" a
reporter asked
'.No, you wouldn't have to wor-
ry," Mr.. Hoover replied as he
pulled on his cigar.
The Presidents secretary, Lawr-
ence Richey, had arranged for reg
ular press conferences twice a day
at the Hoover home, but the Pres
| ident said he would have to be
''let off as he was on vacation.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover have spent
much of their time with their sons,
Allan and Herbert, Jr., and Peter
and Peggy Ann, their grandchild-
rem.
The chief executive has been in
vited to attend a football game
Saturday in the huge stadium on
the campus of Leland Stanford
university, from which Mr.. Hoover
was graduated in 1895.

ENGLISH SEEK
DEBT REVISION
Continued On Page 81
BY SIDNEY j. WILLIAMS
United Press Staff Correspondent


LONDON, Nov. 10. Il An i'm
mediate move by Britain to open
negotiations for revision of her
war debt to the United States and
postponement of the payment of
approximately $100,000,000 d u e
Washington on December Is was
forecast in the press today, now
that the presidential election is
over.
The statements in this morn
ing's papers along that line were
SO unanimous they appeared to
have been inspired, although no
official announcement came from
government sources.
The political writer of the Daily
Mail said it was expected the gov
eminent would address an import
ant communication to Washington
soon on the question of war debts.
Undoubtedly, he said, the govern
ment would express its willingness
to meet its obligations, but would
point out that the definite terms
of payment should be altered be-
cause of the state of affairs in
Europe and the decision reached
at the Lausanne PREPARATIONS con-
ference-(at which the Young plan
was scrapped and Germany re-
lieved of all but shadow of rep
arations payments)
The political writer of the Daily
Express said substantially the same
thing. He added that extension
of the Hoover debt moratorium
would be in accordance both with
the policies of President Hoover
and President-elect Roosevelt.
The parliamentary correspondent
of the Daily Herald said he had
been informed by high officials it
was most improbable Britain would
pay the December Is debt INSTALL
ment. He added it was likely pay
ment would be postponed by mu-
tual consent to allow the opening
of formal negotiations between
Britain and the United States to
place the war debt on CONNER
cial basis.

NEW YORK, Nov. 10-President
Hoover and President-elect Frank
lin D. Roosevelt have pledged their
intentions to cooperate in endeavor
to accomplish a change of admins
trations with the least possible eco
nomic disturbance.
The patriotic good sense of both
men is sufficient guarantee of this
But in addition they have directly
indicated desire to cooperate dur
ing the difficult transition
In his message of congratulation
to Governor Roosevelt, Mr.. Hoover
promised every possible helpful
effort" -
Governor Roosevelt replied that
he joined in expression of a COM
mon purpose in helpful effort to
the country. Secretary of State
Stimson sent word he would be
glad to do everything possible to
assist the incoming administration
Furthermore, in an address to
the natittl last night, James A
Farley, Mr.. Roosevelt's campaign
manager, said II think I am safe
in the assertion that no political
overturn in our history has left SO
small a heritage of bitterness.
Our new president cannot be

al affairs, first because his sense
of duty will not permit it, and
second because he must realize
that he is president of all the peo-
pie, and not merely the president
of the Democrats"
These exchanges were more than
the usual perfunctory kilograms of
congratulations and thanks.
They were the friendly moves of
men upon whom great responsible
ity rests in an effort to bridge the
gap which recently existed-the
state of mind which caused Mr..
Hoover to warn the country that
grass would grow in the streets If
Democratic policies prevailed.
Delicate Questions Up
The change of administration
comes at a difficult time. The
ticklish debt question is expected
to come up Immediately. A world
economic conference is scheduled

of countless banks and business en-
terprises is dependent upon contin-
uation of Reconstruction Finance

comes to the rescue. These and a
dozen other equally delicate ques-
tions-the policy toward Manchur-
ia, and disarmament, for instance
require the most skillful chang
ing of shippers.
There is reason to believe Cover
nor Roosevelt is thoroughly aware
of the situation and will take prop
er measures to inform himself fully
and to organize his administration

BEVERLY HILLS, Nov. 8.
(SpeciaD-Mr. Hoover, the con-
ISOLATION you have from the
whole American people is no
doubt greater than that ever
shared by a losing president.
There was nothing personal
in the vote against you. You
just happened to be associated
with a political party that the
people had just ''lost their
taste for" There is something
about a Republican that you
can only stand for just so long.
And on the other hand there
is something about a Demo-
crat that you can't stand for
quite that long.
We all know that you was
handed balloon that was
blowed up to its utmost. You
held it as carefully as anyone
could, but the thing busted"
right in your hands. Well,
there just amt much you can
do in a case like that. No, it
wasn't you, Mr.. President. The
people just wanted to buy
something new, and they didn't
have any money to buy it with.
But they could go out and vote
free and get something new
for nothing. So cheer up, you
don't know how lucky you are.

 You torly-risin' son-of-a-gun, ' called Rock, as he rolled out of bed.
 He was on his way before sun- rise, and in an hour or so had reached Cedar creek, with it's green banks and clusters of trees, it's lit tie flat, where stood cabin new to Rock. It was locked. He could not see in. But 1T. the sand be- fore the door he saw little boot tracks that surely had been made by Thiry Preston. This was the halfway house that was used by the Prestons, going to and from town.
 From there the road circled a ridge to the west, and well-defin- ed trail led up the slope. Rock knew the trail, and believed that the road would come back to 1t over the hill. He took the short cut, and almost it seemed that he had ridden that trail only yester- day. .

When he achieved the summit the sky had become overcast witt heavy white and black clouds darkening the day. From here he gazed over into country that de- served it's repute. Wide and fa1 away it flung defiance, menace and call to the long-absent rider Below him spread a white-and- green checkerboard of grass and cedar, leading with striking bold ness up into the timber, mesas with crowned walls of gray lime stone, cliffs of red rock, fringed by pine, all mere steps up to ithe mountain kingdom into which the gr,as gap of Sunset Pass yawned, purple and dim, and forbidding. About noon Rock halted before the stone cabin that he knew mus belong to his old friend and en- ployer, Jess Slagle. Rock rode into what was sorry excuse for a yard, where fences were down and dilapidated wagons, long out of ust stood around amid a litter O. stones and wood, and all kinds oi debris characteristic of a run -dowl range It amazed and shocked Rock, though he had seen many cattlemen start well and never fin ish.

 The largest of the pines marked this little cabin, and lowered over it protectingly. The only living things in sight were two deer standing with long ears erect, a horse and a colt, and a jack rabbit bounding away across the waving grass.
 Just then a hound bayed, deep and hollow, no doubt announcing the advent of a stranger in the Pass. Rock, having come abreast of the first cabin, halted his horse.
 The door of this cabin opened. A tall, 1.-the, belted and booted man stalked out, 1eisurely, lis eagle-like head bare, his yellow hair waving , in the wirld-Ash Preston.
