F. d. Roosevelt Has More Than
Enough Votes for Nomination

is that the Cleveland convention
would hardly dare, if it had any in
clination, to ignore these intra-party
manifestations of mass support for
the candidate alluded to patronizing-
ly by Chairman Farley as the hith-
erto unknown governor of a typical
prairie state.
AS for heading off Landon, that
may prove almost as difficult as the
adoption of effective opposition
strategy having for its objective the
embarrassment of the Roosevelt
managers. A number of dark horses
have been looked over with great
care by those who have failed, for
one reason or another, to warm up
to the candidacy of the Kansas gov
ernor, but horses do not do much
racing after they reach the age Of
"a, which has been attained by for
mer Governor Lowden, of Illinois.
For a few days it seemed that the
friends of other candidates, and the
opposition to Landon generally
might be able to pool their interests
in the early balloting at Cleveland,
and give the elder Illinois statesman
a ride

Charlotte Lawyer to
Campaign on Cycle

William F. Scholl, Charlotte law
yer, who has been going after the
Democratic nomination for Congress
in the tenth district with vim and
7vigor, last week startled friend and
foe alike by announcing that he will
spend the final two weeks of the
campaign riding his daughters BIZ
cycle into every county in the dis
trict in an effort to drum up votes
enough to send him to Washington.
cit is not a publicity stunt" Mr..
Scholl said yesterday after announc-
ing his intentions for the stretch
drive of the campaign. He contended
that he is not doing the bicycling act
for the fun of the thing either, but
simply because he has no other way
of reaching the voters and complet-
ing his campaign.
81 am broke" Mr.. School announc-
ed. 81 have an automobile, but it is,
eight years old, in bad repair, and
has no 1886 license tags on it. There
are but two things for me to do:
quit the race and desert the things
for which I have fought, or cover
the district on my daughters bicycle.
81 cannot quit. I have never quit.
Huniliating as this bicycle campaign
may be to myself and to my family,
I prefer it to failing those for whose
interests I have stood. If I am de-
feated want it to come while I am
on the firing line, out there where
the people can see me go down
fighting"

Landon for Republican Nominee
Seems to Be FOrg0ne
Conclusion

WASHINGTON May 23.-Students
of current political trends have quite
generally adopted the view that the
stop Roosevelt, and the stop Landon
movements have alike failed. Since
the delivery of the Al Smith address
on the OCCASION of the Liberty league
dinner, when the one time New
York governor and presidential can
didate mentioned the possibility that
real, Jeffersonian Democrats might
be impelled to take a walk from
Philadelphia, there has been the as
sumption that members of the party
who reject the whole new deal
philosophy, would find way to rec
ord their opposition.
AS matters stand tonight, the new
deal already is assured of well above
even the two-thirds support tradi-
tionally required to win the Demo
leadership. This strength will be U.S.
ed in part to bring about majority
rule in the quadrennial conventions
Where the 904 votes so far select
ed for Philadelphia are counted vir-
tually unanimous for the admins
tration, 1888 of the 938 Republican
delegates named to date have not
been bound to any one man, al
though some have been advised
Whether harmony or discord in con-
vention will be promoted thereby is
a subject of disagreement.
OF those most discussed for the
nomination, Governor Landon, OF
Kansas, profited again this week at
the expense of Senator Borah, OF
Idaho. His rout of the legislator in
the New Jersey primary aroused
speculation over how strong factor
Borah would be in the convention
deliberations.
The inspiration for whatever op-
position there is to Landon. will
come from New York, but men here
who have been watching develop
ments in every part of the country
are of the opinion that half the New
York delegates will be for Landon
Representative Smell, who is to serve
the Cleveland convention as perma-
nent chairman and is the Republican
leader in the house, has thrown his
support, in a quiet way to Landon
He is one of the delegates at large
from New York.
The turning point in the east is
said to have come after the presi.
dental preference primary elections
in Massachusetts, and New Jersey
where the Landon support was
shown to have its source in the
grass roots, and among the rank and
file. The reasoning of those who take
the Landon nomination for granted

CONTRACTORS ARE
MAKING GOOD TIME
Residents of West End Will
Benefit From City's
Major Project

Work on the storm water drain in
the Western section of Hagerstown is
going forward at rapid rate, and with
continued good weather the project
the largest single construction job in
the city-will be completed within five
months, it was announced today by Of
fcials.
When completed the drain will be of
great benefit to residents of the West
End who have experienced considerable
difficulty with flood waters during the
rainy seasons.
Drainage facilities have long been
needed in this section of the town. On
numerous occasions flooded cellars have
followed heavy rains, the storm drains
being unable to carry off the water. AS
"a result of this condition, damage to
property has resulted in several in
stances.
The Seaboard Construction Company
contractors, has encountered much rock
since the beginning of operations. The
company, however, is equipped with
modern machinery and they have, as a
result, succeeded in keeping ahead of
schedule.
Engineers and construction men who
have inspected the project are high in
their praise of the results being obtain
ed by the contractors.
With but exceedingly few exceptions
local labor is being used on the project,
the contractors maintaining that with
city and Federal funds paying for the
work. only Hagerstown workmen should
benefit. The labor is being drawn thru
the National Unemployment Service.

FORECLOSURES ARE
RAPIDLY DECLINING
Construction Shows a Big
Gain Throughout the
United States

Foreclosures of all types of real estate
throughout the country during the past
month continued to register a sharp de-
crease, bringing the total for the first
quarter of 1896 down 26.7 per cent. from
the figure for the first quarter of last
year.
At the same time building permit rec
ords show that the volume of residential
construction for the quarter gained 104.2
per cent. as compared with 1895, 1925
per cent. in comparison with 1884, and
more than a thousand per cent. compared
with 1882.
The foreclosure data is based on the
monthly reports to the Federal Home
Loan Bank Board from $50 identical
communities throughout the country,
both urban and rural, representing fifty
per cent. of the entire population.
The most important amoung the fac
tors contributing toward "a freer flow Of
mortgage money for new construction
from areas where it is abundant to areas
where it is scarce is the Federal Housing
Administrations activities in the insur-
ance of refnancde mortgages on existing
property. While the insurance of ref
nanced mortgages on existing property
does not release new capital for mort
gage lending on new construction, it
keeps the nations supply of such funds
flowing freely where they are needed
most. This is because insured mort
cages, whether on new construction or
existing property, are marketable. Mort
gage investments were not always mark
etable investments and the old style
mortgage was not an investment on
which bank could readily realize cash
when it needed it.
