Byrd Leaves on First Leg of Antarctic Trip Bids New York Farewell on “Eve of Departure for Two Years at World’s Bottom New York, Sept. 28.—(#)—Com- mander Richard E. Byrd leaves New York tonight on the first leg of the long land and sea trail that will take him to the antarctic continent where he and 80 comrades expect to spend the next two years. Byrd is going first to his home in Boston, whence he will take a train for San Pedro, Calif., to catch the whaler Larsen for the voyage to Dunedin, N. Z., rendezodus of the expedition. The Larsen, carrying four airplanes and the aviation per- sonnel, is now on her way from Nor- folk to the California port, and is expected to leave there October 6.

The change was made, it date, because of the limited seating Carnegie hall. ‘rank statements of\some party leaders who have called on Herbert Hoover recently concerning the Re- publican prospects in’ Massachu- setts, the home state of President Coolidge, have served to revive speculation as to what part the chief executive is to play in the presi- eet campaign. Mr. Coolidge and his successor as the head of the Republican party have conferred upon this subject, but there has been no announcement beyond the mere statement that the chief executive wants to be as help- ful as possible. Since that pronouncement word has gone around in some political circles that Mr. Coolidge contem- at least one speech before election day, and since his party appears to be having its troubl in own state, the nat- ural assumption has been that he to invade New England ee in the camp: ae it before he begins his dri: h of the presidential contest in his trip across the continent.

The senator’s views were made known in a letter to a constituent who wished to know how the tariff benefited ranchers, sheepmen, or dairymen. He said that the cost of production of beef and mutton is enormously greater in the United States than in any other surplus-pyo- ducing country. “Free competition means increas- ing imports,” he declared, “wholly at the will of the American packers, and the consumer. will become de-/ afte e | pendent on foreign countries.” After quoting figures which, he PRICE FIVE CENTS NYE, JARDINE, WORK SCORED | ON FARM PLAN Farm Relief, Inland Water- ways and ‘Whispering’ As- saulted in St. Paul a REPEATS FEE APPROVAL .

HAROLD OLIVER (Associated Press Staff Writer) St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 28.—Leav- } ing behind another attack on the Republican party and administra- tion, this time a triple-barreled as- sault for alleged inaction on the questions of farm relief and inland waterways and for “whispering,” Governor Smith takes to the road again today for the last speech of his western drive for the presidency. Tomorrow night at Milwaukee the { Democratic presidential candidate will wind up his two weeks’ stumping of the middle and far west with an address probably on_ prohibition. The Democratic state convention at Rochester next Monday, which he also plans to address, then will be his only engagement before return- ing to Albany for a rest. Ripping into his Republican oppo- sition, Governor Smith told a crowd that jammed into the St. Paul audi- torium last night that there was an “absolute lack of vigorous leader- ship” at Washington, and had been for the last seven and a: half years. As a result, he asserted, Republican platform declarations on farm relief and inland waterways have amounted to nothing more than “glowing promises.” On_the other hand, he declared, the Democratic platform “hits the nail squarely on the head” on these subjects, and it is from this party that real relief must come. ‘ores Senator Nye The nomi charged into Chai man/Work of the Republican na al committee, Secretary Jardi Senator Nye, Republican, North kota, on the farm relief score, and ioted a statement by Senator Nor- is, Republican, Nebraska, ,issucd-~ Omaha “farm ‘specch, furnishing his best defense from separ’ imroads by thi Democrats. le is able to do this both by long-distance telephone and also by direct contact with the lead- ers who petstantiy are calling at his headquarters to |: cay i and receive instructions METHODISTS T0 FIGHT AL SMITH Bishop Says 20,000 Ministers Will Oppose Al Because of Wet Stand Mankato, Minn., Sept. 28.—(?).

The wide publicity which di patches from Sorrento saying that the marriage would take place at “The House of Tasso” received, has made the former champion feel that it would be quicker and quieter to be in a small parish church in a bi ey. such as Rome or Naples ins\ of at the romantic spot on the famous bay of Naples.
