His personal campaigning limited to a day and a ht and confined to the state of Massachu- setts. It begins early at the city of Springfield and will end late tonight with his prepared address at the Arena in Boston where he will dis- cuss the tariff, foreign trade and the merchant marine. Before reaching Boston, two speeches were planned, one on a platform near the track where his train will stop at Springfield and.the other in front of the station at Wor- cester. In Boston, itself, two 3) hes were on the program in ad- dition to the principal address in the evening. Is Important Address This will be one of the most im- portant campaign addresses Hoover has made and the only one thus far devoted exclusively to economic is- sues. The questions are regarded by him as of paramount importance to the highly industrialized states of New England where the tariff long has been a foremost issue in presi- dential campaigns. Thirty-eight radio stations—11 ‘in eastern states, 12 in the middle western states; eight in the southern states, two in the Rocky Mountain ‘states and five on the Pacific coast —will broadcast the address which thus will be available from coast to coast und border to border. Immediately after his speech Hoover wil: proceed to his train, which is scheduleg to leave Boston at 10 p. m. passifg through Provi- dence, New Haven, and Hartford on the way back to Washington, but stopping only for operating pur- pore. As Providence will be reached fore midnight the nominee prob- ably will make a rear platform ap- pearance there. , To Work On Talk Arriving in Washington at 10 a. was THREE BANDITS SHOOT AND ROB MEN AND MAILS Car Shot Down in Crowded Street work on the speech he is to deliver at New York next Monday . nigit.

AL INSPIRED BY VISITING PLACE OF ABE'S BIRTH Smith Party Journeys Toward Missouri, Home of Senator James A. Reed Governor Smith’s Train En Route to Sedalia, Mo., Oct. 15.—(4#)—After a Sabbath day visit to Lincoln's birthplace near Hodgenville, Ky., Governor Smith was bound today for Sedalia, Mo., whcre tomorrow night he will delive. the first of two campaign speeches before returning to New York staie next Sunday to lay the groundwork for his final two weeks’ drive for the sidency. An address at Chicago Friday night will close this week’s speec! making for the Democratic presid tial candidate. After a two-day lay- over in eth ch will get ia again for perhaps one campaign sales before starting on his six speech dash down the Atlantic sea- board ending at New York City the Saturday night before election. En route to Sedalia, due to be reached at 6 o'clock this evening, the. governor had planned a two and a half hour visit to St. Louis, home of Senator Harry B. Hawes, a Dem- ocratic regional campaign manager, for a big parade and reception in his honor. In Jiw Reed’s State In coming to the border state of Missouri, the Democratic nominee also visits the home state of Sen- ator James A. , one of his op- ponents for the Houston nomination, and a region that, as a rule, fairly boils in political debate in presiden- tial years. This year is no excep- tion. As his train cut across Kentucky last night for the Missouri river, Governor Smith carried with him inspiring recollections of his trip yesterday to the Lincoln shrine on top of a little knoll two miles south of Hodgenville. Going by special train to the Ken- tucky town sixty miles southwest of Louisville, the governor and his yy were driven by automobile to the log cabin birthplace of the great emancipator, stopring en route at the town square where stands a huge bronze statue of Lincoln. When his car came to a halt, the governor stood up and gazed, bare- headed, at the seated majestic fig- ure. Cheers came up from the sev- eral hundred persons grouped about the statue and in the square and the nominee responded with a wave of his hat. isits Immortal Cabin Arriving at the shrine a few min- utes later, he was escorted up the steps to the granite memorial now enclosing th> well preserved log cabin in which Lincoln first saw the light more than hundred years ago. Once inside the memorial build- ing, the governor and his party were free to inspect the cabin in comparative quiet. Standing before entrance to the cabin, the nominee turned to his wife and children and, in a low voice, said: “This was no royal road to great- Then he hung a large wreath on one of the protruding logs and CRAFT SOARING ROR LAKEHURST Commander Eckener and Pres- ident Coolidge Exchange Greetings SOARS OVER WASHINGTON Will Be Berthed Alongside Los Angeles at 5:30 Ending Flight Washington, Oct. 15.—(AP)— The Graf Zeppelin will visit New York before going to Lake- hurst according to an incom- plete intercepted message picked up by the naval radio. The message, given out as unofficial, said that the ship would com- plete the cruise of 6,000 miles and would have fuel left over to keep going for approximately 65 hours, Another intercepted message from the Graf Zeppelin to Lake- hurst said the ship would cro over Trenton, N. J., and New York, and arrive at Lakehurst about 5:30 p. m. (By The Associated Press) The Graf Zeppelin, Germany's greatest Leviathan of the air, sa- luted the capital of the United States this afternoon and then showed her silvery sides high in the air to thousands in other cities before turn- ing to her waiting berth in Lake- hurst, N. J. Making landfall on the American continent near Cape Charles, Va.,.at about 10 o'clock, the airship cruised up the Chesapeake and arrived over Washington at 12:21 p, m. Baltimore whistles acclaimed her first success- ful commercial air crossing of the Atlantic at exactly 1 o’clock. The next city on her calling list was Wilmington and then Philadelphia. The dirigible, nearing the end of her 6,500 mile flight from Friedrichshafen, had eclipsed all preries records for Sustained flight y_her type of aircraft, The old Zeppelin record of 101 hours fell at 7 a, m. the mark of the ill-fated French Dixmude, which had remained aloft for 104 hours was broken at 10 a. m., and the world record of 108 hours made by the English R-34-in her westward At- lantic flight was in the discard at 2 p. m. when the Graf Zeppelin was over Elkton, Md. The dirigible Graf Zeppelin, bringing the first transatlantic air passengers to the United States, tu- y was showing them some of the ef sights of the mid-Atlantic sea- board and at the same time satisfy- ing the throngs who had awaited her coming from Friedrichshafen. The biggest airship of the day first passed over American ground after her long ocean voyage, at ten o’clock this morning, near Cape Charles, the northern sentinel of Chesapeake Bay. To supplement the radio, with which occasional ships had provided the only information on of her whereabouts for four days, there came frequent reports of her prog- ress from Virginia and Maryland towns as she passed up Chesapeake Bay toward Washington. All was in readi: al and be: walked around the cabin, pausing to| as: read some of Lincoln’s writings en- gra on marble plaques on the walls of the memorial. A visit to the nearby spring which provided the Lincoln family with water back in the frontier days, and from which the Governor and Mrs. Smith drank, ended the tour of the historic spot and the governor soon was on his way back to Louisville.
