i dared not risk popular defeat. The explanation of the adminis- tration forces was that all repub- licans were behind Hoover any way, that no one took Dr France seriously, so why bother? They did enter Hoover in Maryland after the republican state ma. chine had assured them that they couldN give Dr France a sound licking in his own state which would effectually dispose of him.
 Hoover beat France. 27,ooo to 17,000. If he were to be victimized by
 general disregard of primary
 votes, France said, his case could
 only be compared with that of Roosevelt in 1912, when primary
 delegates of T. R.'s voted for Taft. Not since 1912, he said, had there
 been any such serious breach or
 faith.
 Pennsylvania Smiles
 Only the oregon delegates were
 willing to admit any obligation to
 the only presidential candidate in Chicago. There France won over Hoover, 64,00O to 18,000. One of the 13 delegates said he would
 break pledge and vote for Hoover.
 But Russell Hawkins, head of
 the delegation, said he and the
 other II were unwilling to repu- diate the "popular choice" They would vote for France, unless Hoover had a convention majority by the time Oregon's turn came. in which case each delegate would use his best Judgment.
 Spokesmen for North Dakota where. France won 36.000 votes and Hoover won none because he didn't enter said nine of their II delegates would be for Hoover they didn't know about the other two. An opinion from. the states attorney general said 1t would be quite all right. As for Pennsyl- yania, where France had 352,OOO votes against Hoover's unrequest- | ed 21,000 in what France thought was a bid for 75 delegates. for | illinois, where he boiled 345.000 against the non-entered MT Hoov. l CTS 1750 with 61 delegates in volved, .and. New Jersey and Wes'
 Virginia where France also wor
 unopposed by large votes
 | Well, their delegates just
 laughed. They said the fact tha 1 Dr France had taken those pri
 maries seriously was just biz
 joke on Dr France.

PENAL EDITION" HEADLINES NEW BILL AT CAPITOL
Pat OBrien, Mae Clarke
 Have Chief Roles Tn Newspaper Play

"The Final Edition which be- gins showing tonight at the Capi- | tol theatre, is the story of how q newspaper scoops all it's rivals in a murder mystery, because one of tits girl reporters had the nerve to Irisk her very life to get the goods on the guilty man against whom there was only the slightest evil dence until she trapped him. Anne Woodman, enacted by Mae Clarke, is bent on proving to Sam Bradshaw, City Editor of the Bull letin, played by Pat OBrien, that she is good reporter and the real reason he has fired her is because she won't marry him.
 Wins Widows Confidence l. By putting aside her hard-boiled reporters manners, she wins the confidence of the widow of the murdered police commissioner and secretly listens in on a police in terview that gives her a secret clue.
 Following this, she trails a sus- pect, who is beating it out of town.
 Tense situations pile on top of one another until the moment when the murderer and his boss discover they've been discovered. Then what a ride both Anne and Bradshaw find themselves spotted for.
 Newspaper Gets Scoop
 The day is won, however, by the newspaper. The final edition car- ries the scoop. Anne makes good on her self-appointed assignment, proves her point to Bradshaw and then resigns to become "the mis- sus."
 Howard Higgin directed The Final Edition" from an original by Roy Chanslor.
