Hoover Preparing Accept ance Speech-Prohi-
 bition Intentions

WASHINGTON, July 25. - The Democrats will concentrate many of their big guns next fall on cer- tain "hopelessly Republican" States in an attempt to wrest them from Hoover and Curtis forces, James A. Farley, Chairman of the Demo- cratic National Committee, made 1t clear Saturday night.
 In the past these States have frequently been left alone while the Democrats directed their ef- forts to those States which held promise of victory.
 New Conquests Planned
 During the approaching cam paign, States like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Vermont, Michigan and New Hampshire, rarely voting Demo- cratic, will receive just as much attention as the others, Farley said.
 i Democratic leaders will be invited to meet in Chicago as soon after the headquarters are opened on August l to map a militant cam paign
 Farley expressed belief that Al Smith supporters will be brought into the Roosevelt camp. Hoover Is Busy Meanwhile, President Hoover is preparing his acceptance speech which will be delivered on August II in Washington. There have been frequent consultations of party leaders regarding Prohibition and economic features of the accept ance address. Apparently the Presl- dent is keeping his Prohibition in tentions strictly to himself as no intimations as to how he stands have become known.

BOARD DELAYS RELIEF FUNDS
 DISBURSEMENT
REC. Advises Gov. Parks No Distribution of Funds
 for Some Time

States and Territories, seeking emergency relief funds from the Reconstruction Finance Corpora ton, will have to curb their i'm patience for a time. The Corpor- ation hasn't yet determined just what procedure will have to be followed under the new law in order for it to disburse Federal funds to the States applying for aid.
 Word to this effect was received today by Gov. George A. Parks, and similar notification has been telegraphed to the Governor of ev- cry State and Territory by the Corporation.
 Alaska Not Applicant
 Alaska, the Governor said, has not yet applied to the Corporation for assistance. Authorities here have not had an opportunity t1 study the measure passed just be- fore Congress adjourned. It is pos sible that later the Territory may seek emergency funds.
 Many of the States have already filed for advances, said the mes sage from the Corporation, fol funds for relief purposes and fol advances to aid in financing self liquidating projects. "The law has just been enacted" he added, "and naturally the necessary procedure for making advances under it has not yet been established.
 'The Board desires to consider applications as expeditiously a: possible, but the act must be con strued and administered in an or derly manner, and with due regard for all sections of the country. Ma turally it will take little time to formulate policies, make sur yeys and establish procedure fol making such advances.
 Will Act Promptly
 This will be done as promptly as possible and appropriate an nouncement made of the procedure to be followed. The Board feel sure that you will understand tht problem that confronts 1t, and ear nestly solicits your cooperation, he declared.

SENATOR BORAH.
 ADVOCATES NEW W WORLD SESSION
Immediate Conference on War Debts, Repara-
 tions, Is Urgent WOULD BE FOLLOW TO LAUSANNE AGREEMENT Declares Meeting W uld Restore Confidence in
 Politics, Business

WASHINGTON, July 25.-United States Senator William E. Borah, of Idaho, proposed last Saturday night in a radio speech an im- mediate World Conference to con- slider revision or cancellation of war debts and threatening the pro- gram for settling other postwar problems.
 Senator Borah proposed the con- ference as a follow up of the Lausanne rep a rations agreement which he said was more of a hamburger of peace and the hope of humanity" than the Versailles Treaty.
 Important Step
 Senator Borah painted the Lau- same agreement as the most inn portant step taken since the World War, looking to restoration of con fidence in political and business affairs. He said debts were just debts and the only reason for urg- ing red du tion or cancellation would be in the interest of the people of the United States"
 The conference, as proposed by Senator Borah, would have the authority to deal with separations debts disarmament, reestablishment of gold standards, stabilization of silver, Oriental and possibly other questions.

NEW YORK, July 25.-Presi- dent Herbert Hoover's personal fortune, says the magazine For tune, in the August issue, out today, has shrunk to $70O,0OO from an estimated $4,000,000 at the time of his retirement from business in 1914.
 The shrinkage is attributed principally to interest in an investment company whose ac- uuisitiCns are now described as mostly liabilities, and to ex- penses and contributions con- nected with the Belgian Relief, Peace Conference and other public donations.

 The move was rather selective but tobaccos, oils, steel and some utilities and rails were sent up one to more than two points with ap- parently little effort.
 Steel Dividend
 Brokerage gossip had it that the shorts were unnerved over the prospect of the steel order for the regular preferred dividend tomor- row and it's quarterly earnings may not show severe deficit as pre- dicted.
 Issues Up 2 or More
 Among the issues up about two or more points are United States Steel preferred, Bethlehem Stee preferred, American Tobacco B. Consolidated Gas, Allied Chemical Union Pacific, National Biscuit Drug, Standard Oil of California and Consolidated Oil preferred.
 Issues up one point or more arc American Can, American Telephone and Telegraph, Standard Oil ol New Jersey, Consolidated Oil com mon, American Waterworks, Sears and others.

 The bullishly inclined traders ap- parently acted on the theory that the market response to the second quarter earnings statement, some of which have been more favorable than expected, indicated the worst aspects of the industrial situation are discounted and higher price: are in order.

IMPETUOUS AGE

All the old adages about the con-
servatism of age will have to be re-
vised in Germany, if the custom
continues of allowing the oldest
member of Parliament to open q
new session. Calar Zetkin, the
fiery Communist, delivered a dra-
matte and decidedly unrestrainec
attack upon capitalism when she
of1ciated a few months ago. Anc
General Litzmann, 81 years old
opened the new Reichstag with q
furious onslaught upon President
Won Hindenburg who was, the vet
eran declared, driving Germany to-
ward Bolshevism.
Age usually has a SOLDERING IN
huence upon those who see Utopia
around a corner. That it does not
have this effect in Germany is per-
