I'd. RS MOTHER
is HURT IN FALL
82-Year-0 Woman Trips
Over Doorstep; Bone in
Hip Cracked.
By United Press


WASHINGTON, May 2O.-Mrs.
Sara Delano Roosevelt, 82-year-old
mother of the President, is suffer-
ing from a cracked bone in her
hip, it was revealed at the White
House today.
President Roosevelt did not learn
that his mother had fallen last
Wednesday while visiting her great
grandchildren in New York City
until he asked his 82-year-old
mother in Hyde Park how she was
feeling during telephone CONVEX
Sation.
Mrs. Roosevelt said that she was
slightly handicapped" She said
she had tripped and fallen over a
doorstep while visiting Sistie and
Buzzie Dali, her great-grandchil-
dren.
The President urged her to call
a doctor and an examination re-
vealed an impacted hip and cracked
bone.
Mrs. Roosevelt will be confined
to bed for at least two weeks and
the President plans to leave Wash
ington Friday night for Hyde Park
to stay with her over the weekend,
leaving Monday night for Wash
ington. y.
1t was considered remarkable in
view of Mrs. Roosevelt's advanced
age that she was able to be up and
about with the injury. It was
learned that although the accident
happened Wednesday she went
Thursday to Hyde Park and con-
tinued her supervision of house
hold duties until the President
asked her to call a doctor.

GOV. HOFFMAN
LAGS IN RACE
FOR DELEGATE
Runs Fourth in Field of 5;
Landon a to | Ahead
of Borah.
By United Press

By United Press
TRENTON, N. j., May 20.-Gov.
Harold G.. Hoffman, whose activities
in the Hauptmann case were made
a campaign issue, ran fourth today
in a field of five candidates for four
places as delegates at-large to the
Republican national convention.
Although he trailed three other
New Jersey Republican leaders,
Gov. Hoffman had stable lead
for the fourth place over the man
who raised the Hauptmann issue
against him-former Rep. Franklin
w. Fort, friend of former President
Herbert Hoover.
Landon forces claimed the cleo
ton of their entire slate of 80
pledged delegates. This voting was
entirely separate from presidential
preference in which Mr.. Landon ran
nearly 4-to-1 ahead of Senator
William E. Borah of Idaho.
Returns from I'LL of $3.50 districts
in the preferential voting gave:
Landon, 1886; Borah, 46,792.
In the contest for delegateS-at-
large. all of whom were pledged to
Gov. Landon, returns from 1851 dis
tricts gave:
Walter E. Edge, 233, S4s; Edward
B. Dufield, 217,873; Edna B. Conk-
lin, 2O2,077; Hoffman, 181, GAO; Fort,
141,241.
Despite Hoffman's lead over Mr.
Fort, his stable lag behind the
other three was considered by OBJ
servers as likely to foreclose what
ever chance he may have had as a
Republican vice presidential candi-
date.
President Roosevelt was assured
all the New Jersey Democratic dele
gates.
He was not entered in the prefer
ence voting, the name Of Col. Henry
Breckenridge, New York lawyer, ap-
pearing alone on the ballot. This
made for very light voting.
In little more than ope-third of
the states districts, Col. Breckin-
ridge received 1912 These we're
Democratic "protest" votes against
Mr.. Roosevelt.
