WISE CAMP PA|GNS
TO CARRY VIRGINIA
Launches ScathIng Attack on
SIemp as Well as "Tam.
many Machine"

Col Jennings c. Wise, Special Assis-
tant to the Attorney General, is waging
whirlwind campaign in Virginia to
carry that traditionally Democratic
State for Hoover and the entire Re
publican ticket next Tuesday.
An interesting angle of the drive is
the fact that Col. Wise is launching a
Scathing attack on c. Bascom Slemp
longtime. Virginia Republican leader.
as well as on what he characteriZes as
the "Tammany machine of Raskob,
Roosevelt, Smith, Pollard and Byrd

Saas Victurv fnr unc,or
Chief campaigner for Hoover in Vir-
GINA in 1928. Col Wise has asserted
mis- confidence that the Republicans
will repeat their victory in the Old Do
minion on election day. Admitting that
his optimism is not shared by some
other members of his party. he has
pointed out that his forecasts of
Hoover victory in Virginia in 1923 were
similarly made light of.
Col. Wise came to an open break with
Slemp early in the present campaign
After Wise had advocated. as early as
last March a submission prohibition
program. Slemp was reported in the
press as having advised President Hoo
yer that Virginia was satisfied" with
the eighteenth amendment Col Wise
alsl has stressed an Associated Press
dispatch quoting Slemp as declaring it
va useless for the Republicans to at
tem3t TO break the solid South again.
Now Col. Wise has stated, the
party leaders see that Mr. Slemp is lust
as wrong in 1882 as he was in 1928"

HARPER WANTS
PARADE, BALL

Col. Robert N. Harper, chair.
man of the Inaugural commit,
tee in 1917-the last Democratic
inaugural to date-will send a
message to President-elect Roose'
velt urging that he give consent
to IAN old-fashioned Democratic
celebration" when inducted into
the highest office next March.
Although not confident that all
of his suggestions will be &C
cepted, Colonel Harper will recon-
mend a big parade and an lnau
gural ball on March A.. Colonel
Harper, banker, has been active
and influential in Democratic
politics in the District of Co
lumbia and Virginia for more
than two decades. He has been
generous contributor to cam
paign expenses
He said today:
81 shall communicate prompt
Iy with the President-elect and
recommend that we have here
an Old-fashiOned inaugural, with
everything that goes with the
term. That includes an inau-
guraI ball, which we have not
had since 1909.
Despite the economic situa-
toin and all its distress, the
country has voted a change in
government in the hope and
expectation of better times.
The cost of a display of conf
dence at the Roosevelt inaugu-
raj will be comparatively small
and 1 believe its psychological
effect will be great. 1 believe
that Democrats all over the
country will approve of an old
time celebration and that the
people at large, regardless of
party affiliations, will concur
in such suggestion.
"Of course, 1 do not vet know
the reaction of the President
elect, whose wishes are all-pre-
vaiIing in such matters, but 1
hope he will approve such a
program for his inaugural"

CORD IN PLANE
SEEKS To BALK
AIR MERGER
Young Auto Manufacturer
Leaves Coast Tonight on
Wild Dash to N. Y.

CHICAGO, Nov. II Q.N.SJ .
Aviation's modern Lochinvar out
of the West, the dynamic Errett
Lobban Cord, was ready today to
launch another assault on Wall
Streets ancient citadel of fl
nance. But, this youthful Twen-
tieth Century gallant comes not
astride a white steed. Instead,
he chooses an airplane, driven
by his own hand.
The 38-year-old automobile and
airplane magnate, it was an
nounced by Cord Corporation
here, will take off from Los An
geles tonight on a dramatic
aerial dash to New York to as,
sumo personal direction of his
war of the proxies against the
officers of the Aviation Corpora
ton of America.
Sees Peril to Owners
In this re-enactment of the old
tale, the modern Lochinvar seeks
to rescue the stockholders of the
$40, 100000 corporation, who, he
declares, are in grim peril of
losing a voice in the manage
ment of their company.
It was reported here that the
Chicago capitalist begins his trans.
continental flight tonight, armed
with proxies to be used as weap.
onS in his battle against the pro
posed deal under which Aviation
Corporation would exchange some
of it's common stock for assets
of North American Aviation Corpo
ration.
"COncOcted in Secret"
Cord charges the deal was
"concocted in great secrecy anc
haste" by a majority of Aviation
Corporations directors, who con
troll only Z per cent of the stock
and that it is designed to SCI
up a 10-year voting trust which
would take the company's control
out of the stockholders hands.
He has already obtained a
Delaware court injunction, re
straining the directors of Avia
ton Corporation and North Amer
lean Aviation from holding a
meeting to approve the proposed
transaction.
He is attempting to obtain
enough proxies to assure a special
stockholders meeting on Decem
ber 81 to vote to increase the
company's board of directors
from 35 to 68 members.
A Veteran Aviator
Cords coaSt-to-coast aerial dash
is nothing new in his varied
career. According to his repre-
4 sentatives here, he has flown
across the continent 20 to 80
times each year for the past five
years.
His spokesmen charge that, in
contrast with Cords knowledge
of actual flying, there is not a
single transport pilot in the pres
ent management of Aviation Cor
poration and that a pilot is EN-
ployed to teach the company's
president, L: T. Cohu, to fly.

SESSION
PreSident-EIeCt SkepticaI of
Lifting Ban on Wine Before
Amendment Repeal

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. II Q.N.S0
If the Volstead law is not modi-
fled at the forthcoming short ses-
sion of Congress, Presidentelect
Roosevelt will call the lawmakers
into special session shortly after
his Inauguration next March and
recommend enactment of beer
legislation, it was indicated today
by his close associates.
The President-elect, it was
learned from the same source, has
abandoned hope that a modifica
ton measure will be enacted at
the lame duck session.
He is not worrying about it,
however, his advisers say, because
he would prefer to have the Demo-
cratic party get the credit for
restoring beer"
SkepticaI on Wines
Hints have been thrown out
that Mr.. Roosevelt will recon-
mend Federal tax of So a barrel
on beer. He is known to have
been advised by Speaker John N.
Garner, Vice President-elect, that
such tax would net the Federal
Government upward of $35O,00O,-
600 annually, which would be used
to help balance the budget.
Privately, Governor Roosevelt is
said to have expressed hope that
when the Volsted law is modified
4 per cent cent beer can be pro-
vided.
Until the Eighteenth Amend
ment is repealed, however, it is
said, he does not feel there is
much chance of legalizing wines
because of their high alcoholic
content.
''FIu" Routed
Completely recovered from the
mild attack of influenza, Governor
Roosevelt today planned to leave
his bedroom for the first time in
a week. He said:
"I'm feeling fine, but I'm not
going out Of the mansion before
Saturday."
He is working on his Thanks
giving Day proclamation and also
on the State budget. Smiling, he
recalled that last year several
newspapers commented editorially
because he. lifted" several pas
sages from the Episcopal prayer
book and incorporated them in his
Thanksgiving proclamation.

New interiors were explored in

These interiors had plaster

structures. The approach was
effected by widening extremely
