Raleigh, Oct. 16-The entire poll
teal history of the United States will
have to be disregarded and complete
ly reversed if President Roosevelt is
defeated, since all past history points
definitely to his reelection, Cover
nor-nominate Clyde r. Hoey pointed
out here today as he passed between
campaign speeches.
1.-THE history of past presidential
campaigns shows that in every case
where a President has sought reelec-
ton with the tide of business increas-
ing and prosperity on the upgrade,
whether he was a Democrat or Re
publican he has been reelected" Mr.
Hoey said. "This was true in the case
of both Grover Cleveland and Wood
row Wilson, Democratic presidents
and with Theodore Roosevelt and
Calvin Coolidge, Republicans presi-
dents. For the people are always re-
luctant to vote against any President
during whose administration business
has increased and prospered.
There is no doubt, of course, that
business has prospered greatly dur
ing the almost four years President

GOVERNMENT LACKS

BY CHARLES u. STEWART
Central Press Staff Writer

Washington, Oct 10.-Uncle Sam no
longer can find shelter in Washing
ton for all the government staffs
which are supposed to have their
headquarters here.
There simply are not enough build
ings in the capital to accommodate
the full number of Federal employees.
Baltimore is getting the overflow.
That is to say, if che visits Wash
ington from elsewhere on government
business, taking it for granted that
here is the place to transact it, one
may find oneself referred to branch
offices in the Maryland city instead
It is no great trip-Baltimore being
merely 40 miles away-but it serves

It may not seem as if Washington
should be under-built from the gov

There was plenty of room for all
hands before the war.
The war, however, so inflated Uncle

The "tempo's" were occupied main

But two entire departments-justi

they were paid for at the kind of rem

Raleigh, Oct. 16 (AP)-J. C. Walk
er, division engineer at Asheville, no.
titled the State Highway and Public
Works Commission today that Yam
cey county streams had reached
their highest levels in 16 years due
to floods, and that the town of Wood
row, in Haywood county, was isolat-
ed by high waters.
1--WE are having the worst flood
conditions in this section today we
have had in several years. There
are many slides throughout the noun
tain area which are blocking roads
and causing damage in addition to
the high waters" Walker said.
U. S. Route IA was under seven
feet of water eight miles west of
Rutherfordton, and Route 221 north
and south from Marion was blocked
being under six or seven feet of wa
ter north of the place.
Routes 284 and ITO were blocked by
waters of the Pigeon river to cut off

streams swollen by heavy rains
blocked a number of highways in

Reports here said Mrs. Hugh Tate,
of Greenlea, was seNiously injured
when she and her brother attempted
to pass an automobile near Green

embankment.
Meanwhile, weather officials here
said the French Broad river would
rise about two and a half feet above

age would be done.
At Marshall, however, the river
was swirling over Highway No. 213
at the mouth of the Hayes Run river

The Marshall school, on an island,
suspended operations.
A creek was said to be flowing

History Must Reverse To
Beat Roosevelt, Hoey Says

Roosevelt has been in office and that
the prosperity Of the people is far
greater now than back in the dark,
dreary days of 1882 and 1888, in spite
of the bowls of the Republicans and
some of the big interests For the
balance sheets of business firms every
where show that business is better
today than it was three and four
years ago and that manufacturers,
mill owners, merchants and business
men of all classes are making more
money today than they were then.
Cold, hard figures also show that the
income of the workers in the lower
pay brackets has also increased and
that the per capita wealth of the
people has almost trebled under the
Roosevelt administration.
"This means that the people of the
United States are going to reflect
President Roosevelt for another four
years, unless they forsake all of the
rules and rudiments of political psy-
chology in the past and utterly dis
regard everything that has happened
in the past But they are not going to
do this, since the people as a whole
are better informed and more intel
ligent than ever before. They are go
ing to reflect President ROOSEVELT"

Hoey said. "But we want the Demo-

Nashville, Tenn, Oct. 16.-(AP)-
Federal District Judge John D. Gore,
overruled today a motion by the Ten
nessee Valley Authority to- dismiss
a suit brought against it by 10 pow
err companies, but did not pass upon
the question of the constitutionality
of the IVA act.
The effect of the decision, in the
opinion of attorneys, is to keep the
suit before Judge Gore for hearing
on the constitutional issues involved.
On the answers eventually given to
those questions by the Supreme Court,
it is generally agreed the IVA power
program likely will stand or fall.
There may be cases where it would
be proper to look to the constitution
atty of the act to determine the ques-
ton of jurisdiction the Judge said
in a written opinion, "but think the
case made by the averments in this
bill brings it within the jurisdiction
of this court. regardless of the con-
stitutionality of the Tennessee Valley
Authority act.
Il think the averments, if proven,
strip the defendants of their official
character and constitute them private
citizens in that regard x and
when such conditions exist they are
subject to suit in any court of COM
petent jurisdiction where they are
committing said illegal and uncon-
stitutional acts and where process
can be served"
The power company suits were
brought originally in chancery court
in Knoxville and transferred to Fed
eral district court on the plea of the
IVA. subsequently the IVA filed a
motion to dismiss, contending that
under a section of the IVA act the
suit should have been brought in the
northern district of Alabama.

 Mrs. Jessie Lehman sang two very appropriate solos in her us- ual and sympathic manner. Mrs, Norman McCay accompanied at the organ. A large number of Pioneers of Alaska, of which he was a member, attended the fun eral as well as other friends and acquaintances.
 After the services the funeral procession of autos followed the hearse to Belmont Point ceme- tery where his remains were placed at rest in the Pioneer plot.
 Very little is known of Mc. Kurth's early life. as all his per .sonal effects and records were destroyed in the Nome fire of 1884 However, it is learned thru friends that he was born in Missouri and was 65 years of age at time of death. He came to Alaska in the early gold stampede to kotzebue Sound, mined and conducted a tin shop at Candle before coming to Nome, where he has since conducted the Nome Sheet Metal Works up to the time of his demise.
 MT. Kurth and Frank Martin had constructed a boiler house and moved same to a claim on Dexter creek where they plann- ed to do extensive mining this summer. But his failing health reached a critical point the past two weeks and was found lying in bed in a state of semi-coma from which he nevec fully regain ed consciousness.
