ATTACHMENT
PLACED UPON
SMITH PLANE

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6. U.P)-
The sleek blue monoplane Lady
Southern Cross which carried Sir
Charles Kingsford-Smith and Capt.
p. G. Taylor from Brisbane, Aus
tralia, to Oakland, Calf, in three
hops, was offered for sale today
by the "Flying Knight to repay
his hackers.
Sir Charles placed the craft on
the auction block shortly after it
was attached for a $1750 debt, al
legedly incurred while he was pre-
pairing his first trans Pacific ven
ture, the westward crossing.
MY first thought and concern
is to repay my hackers, - the flyer
said. 1.-The cost of the flight from
Brisbane was more than $4,000, in
cluding the ship itself. I have
high hopes of raising the whole
amount, however.
He was showered with offers for
speaking and other public engage
ments but these he waved aside
temporarily until he could decide
on his plans.
Zone thing is certain, the plane
is for sale,' he said. "Much as
I hate to part with my blue racer
I shall have to do it III order TO
repay my hackers.
He denied published reports he
planned to fly nonstop to New
York. He said he opposed "such
stunts especially if there is no
point in it,
The attachment was obtained on
behalf of H. beverly, assignee for
Thomas r. Cation. The writ claim
ed the debt was incurred by Kings
lord Smith in 1928 at the time he
was preparing to take off in the
Southern Cross" from Oakland to
Australia.
j. S. w. Stannage, Sir Charles
flight manager, was angry at the
proceedings
"It looks like publicity stunt. -
he said. "It's silly and idiotic. All
OF Sir Charles debts then were
paid by his backer, G. Allen Han
cock.

CHICAGO, Nov. 6. (U.Pi-Gun-
fire and violence broke out at a
polling place on the South Side of
Chicago today.
Dr. Joseph f. King, Negro cam
paigner, was kidnapped and his abb
ductors escaped amid a barrage of
bullets.
DR.. King was electioneering for

ing in front of a polling place in
a barber shop in the Negro district

stopped.
The trio surrounded DR.. King,
tossed him into the car and start

Meanwhile James Galloway, one
of the King faction and a CO.

FAIR WEATHER
PREVAILS FOR
ELECTION DAY
BY United Press

Generally favorable weather in
the United States today indicated
record vote in one of the most i'm
portant off-year elections in history.
Success of the Democratic party
and the new deal" was indicated
in general as voters went to the
polls in AZ states. In various con-
tests, however, Republican victories
we,e predicted or conceded.
The first returns came from New
Ashford, Mass, which got up en-
maSse at dawn to cast % votes for
the Republican gubernatorial candi-
date, 10 for the Democratic and one
for the Independent. That was a
three-vote gain for the Democrats.
The nationwide balloting ex-
cepting Maine, which already has
voted a Democratic governor-was
for IS senators and 432 members of
the house Of representatives. It was
considered the first nationwide test
of sentiment since President Rccse-
Welt launched the new DEAL
Sunny weather prevailed in a ma.
jority of states. Early voting in New
York and some other eastern states
was cut by rain at dawn. Clearing
skies, however, spurred a heavy bal
]ot later.
Voting heavy was the word from
Detroit, Chicago. Albany, N. Y, Bal
timorN and other cities reporting
eayly.
Despite predictions of most obser-
vers favoring the Democrats to re-
tain control of the house and to reg
lister gains in the senate, interest
was high in many states, especially
in the California gubernatorial con-
test, the Pennsylvania senatorial
election and the LaFollette cam
paign in Wisconsin.
Police took extensive precautions
in almost every large city. Extra
guards were placed at the polls and
special details rounded up disorder
ly elements.
A Republican leader and his fam
lily were held at Hazleton, Pa. after
