P) taken the time in the home of the presidential campaign to plead | with all the force at his command | | for election of the Democratic state | | ticket headed by Franklin D. Roose- | velt, Governor Smith winds up in ison Square Garden tonight the tensive fight of his 25 years Democratic standard-bearer fident he will be the next presi- the United States, and to- he will tell the home folks the mn why he thinks so. It will be the last audience he will address in person, and his managers hoped to make it the largest of his three swings around the country. Monday night, after Herbert Hoo- ver has made his final 15-minute appeal to the American people from Palo Alto. Calif., to retain the Re- publicans in power in Washington, the Democratic nominee will address the voters, but it will be from a radio broadcasting studio. In his first speech in his home state since he addressed the Demo- cratic state convention at Rochester October 1, Governor Smith told an audience in the Brooklyn Academy of Music last night that it was up to the people of New York to keep the Democrats in power at Albany if they wanted to see “a construc- tive, forward-looking, wise and eco- nomical administration” of their af- fairs continued. Discussing state issues and their relation to similar questions in the national campaign, the nominee as- sailed Albert Ottinger, state attor- ney general and Republican candi- date for governor, on his water- power, agriculture, education and state finance stands before he struck the question of prohibition. He described Ottinger as a “wet dry,” and said he had made the “in- teresting suggestion that he will ‘wait until the commission appointed by Mr. Hoover reports on it.” “Well,” the governor remarked, “that is a little bit too long to wait. There isn’t going to be any report, because there isn’t going to be any commission. I'll attend to that. As I have promised throughout the country, I shall take that question to the American people and lay it before them fairly, clearly, straight- forwardly and intelligently, and I shall let them settle it.” ROBINSON ENDS LONG CAMPAIGN Confident Success Will Crown His Hard Efforts Next Tuesday En route with Senator Robinson to Clarksburgh, W. Va., Nov. 3.— (AP)—A campaign that ranks with the most extensive in American pol- ities will close today when Senator They look like oll pals holding a reunion but they’re just a couple of new buddies expressing their mutual admiration and new found ‘riend- ship. Red Tomahawk, chief of the Sioux, had just presented General Charles P. Summerall, chief of staff of the United States Army, with one of the prized head dresses of his race. The gencral praised the bravery of the Red men who fought with him in France during the World War while the chief reaffirmed his friendship for the white man and pledged the eternal friendship of his race. Joe T. Robinson, Democratic vice presidential candidate, ends his coast to coast tour with a speech at Clarksburg. The first southern Democrat to have a major place on the national ticket since Civil war days, Senator Robinson also was the first Demo- crat since that time to invade the solid south. As his long t our neared its closed he was confident success would crown his efforts next Tuesday. The last few days of his tour have taken the senator through states considered by the leaders of his party to lie in territory which may cast decisive votes in Tuesday’s bal- loting. The senator was partic- ularly hopeful that his campaign in Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, the Da- kotas and Nebraska, would augment chances for Democratic victory in those states. Although he winds up'his cam- paign in Clarksburg today, the cli- max was actually reached at Dayton, O., last night where a crowd that thronged the huge auditorium cheered both Robinson and James M. Cox. The strange shifting of the American political scene was fully portrayed at this meeting. Eight years ago Senator Robinson came to Dayton to notify Mr. Cox of his nomination by the Democrats as their standard bearer in the cam- paign against Warren G. Harding. Last night Cox introduced the Sen- ator as “the next vice president of the United States.” Mr. Cox recalled the meeting of eight years ago: “Whatever we may think about that drama of 1920—or shall we call it a drama that turned out to be a tragedy?” Cox said, “we do not sit here together tonight in need of fumigation. There is no smell of oil in our clothing.” BURNED GIRL'S STORY ‘STICKS Police Still Baffled by Weird Tale and Peculiar Circum- stances Lake Bluff, Ill, Nov. 3—(AP)— Miss Elfrieda Knaak’s own meagre story of self-torture in the furnace room of the Lake Bluff police station was generally ae today despite discrepancies in the explanation of circumstances which caused her death. Police were as baffled a day after her death as they were when she was found, her arms, head and legs burned to the bone in places. An inquest into the case was set for November 8, and in the mean- time efforts will be made to clarify. and if possible explain the woman’s burning. Her body will be further examined to determine if her story of self-immolation must be accepted as conclusive. Detectives studied her diary in the hope of fincing remarks revealing Miss Knaak’s psychology studies and their effect on her behavior. They perused a letter written to her by: Charles Hitchcock, Lake Bluff night policeman, who she said was her psychic sweetheart, A cursory study of the letters, however, brought no new light to the persistent mystery. Miss Knaak’s family reiterated a belief that she could not have com- mitted the deed alone, yet continued investigation brought forth no evi- dence to point to clues in other di- rections, Hitchcock has been cleared of all suspicion.

POULTRY | Culling Urged as Means of Eliminating Tuberculosis from Chickens Investigations by the state veter- inarian’s office show that tubercu- losis is present in many poultry flocks in North Dakota, according to W. F. Crewe, state veterinarian. However, various poultry raisers and organizations in the state are cooperating ha! mely in the cam- paign to elimint the disease, he said. Some educational work has been done in the campaign, which started a short time ago, the doctor said. Three hundred turkeys were tested, with only three reactors. Nearly 5,000 chickens were tested, with 422 reactors, the average being set at about nine per cent. “It would seem too expensive a procedure to undertake the eralica- tion of tuberculosis by the tuberculin bedet 3 of all flocks, even if an ap- Propriation was available,” Crewe continued, “It has been determined that tu- berculosis in poultry can be con- trolled by the removal of all aged birds in the infected flocks and carrying over only young birds. Birds under six months of age do not seem to be infected and birds under one year rarely are infected. It would seem that if poultry raisers loss from the vase would be ex- tensively curtsiled. “Several plans have been present- ed with some conflict as to the adoption of any particular one.” Fargo Mercantile Head Is Promoted Fargo, N.
