Smith had been recorded today by the 2te of New York State in the | decisite defeat of a proposed consti- tutional amendment to have governors clected in presidentlal years instead two years. { Rallying behind Smith’'s opposition @ the measure, the voters duplicated ction of the electorate of | New nd buried the proposal | under an avalanche of ballots. = Re- | turns from virtually two-thirds of the [ State showed the plan lost by a ma- v of more than 5 00, |""The same time eight other amend- ments for which the governor had 1te-wide cam- in which he clashed several mes with Col.

The governor, who originally had fathercd the four-vear term idea, had based his opposition to the amend- ment as presented to the voters ves- terday on the clause that would have | thrown gubernatorial elections into | presidential vears, He took the post- | tion that to hold the two elections at | the same time would result in subor. Qination of State issues and permit the election of second-rate candidates to the governorship. “The defeat of the amendment,” the governor said, “must be regarded as a protest on the part of an overwhelm- ing majority of the electorate against the election of the governor in a year when presidential candidates are run- nin; Both parties are duty bound to » faith with the people in view of their declaration of the necessity of extending the term and should sub- mit at the earliest possible moment n amendment to make this possible, with election to be held in years when no presidential candidate is running.” Subway Measure Wins, Nearly complete returns gave the propesal to increase New York City's debt limit to permit the borrowing of £300,000,000 for construction of new subways a favorable majority of more than 230,000. The measure had been vigorously supported by Mayor James J. Walker as necessary to enable him to keep his platform pledges to im- prove transit conditions. Fairly complete returns on the amendment to increase the annual lary of governor from $10,000 to 000 and those of members of the Legislature to $2,500 gave that meas- ure a favorable majority of more than 430,000. The other amendments require thée governor to submit a budget to the Legislature, permit county appropri- ations for grade-crossing elimination, make the governor the titular as well as actual head of the executive de- partment, permit the construction of a State highway in the forest pre- serve of Essex County, permit coun- ‘plazas and streets; prohibit the an- nexation of territory by a city with- out consent of residents of the sec- tions affected.

A. F. Blaess of Chicago, chief en- gineer « ¢ the 1llinois Central Railroad and chairman of the American Rail- way Assoclation’s flood committee, read a report which revealed that 3,000 miles of railroad were destroyed by the flood and of the $10,000,000 total loss sustained by the carrier: the Iilinois Central, with $2,700,000, suffercd the heaviest damage, While the !\‘!;hwvurl Pacific was next with $1,002,- 260, That the New England flood had further emphasized the national prob- lem was the view of Robert Ford of Chicago, chief engineer of the Rock Island Lines, who declared that New En; d, through its disaster, now can realize the gravity of the Mississipp! inundation. E. A. Hadley, St. Louls, chief en- gineer of the Missouri Pacific Ralil- road, told of the feats of the railroads in relief work, and F. G. Jonah of St. Louls, chief engineer of the St. Louis-San Francisco Rallroad, urged stronger levees, revetments and spill- ways as_flood-control remedies. Capt. W. T. Wynn of Mississippl, representing the American Legion of Arkansas, Louislana and Mississippi, sald that politics should be eliminated in the formulation of a national flood- control plan. Hoover Is Praised. The flood work_of Secretary Hoover was lauded by Judge Percy Bell of Greenville, Miss. Brig. Gen. Allison Owen, New Or- leans, representing that city’s Asso- ciation of Commerce, sald the prime interest of the country is the loss in life and then the property loss, The loss of property was so great as to make the 1927 flood constitute a na- tional calamity, he added. Gen. Owen said that the Mississippi Valley fears a greater flood next year and described devastation of the last flood as similar to the World War. b EXHIBITION PLANNED.

The way to Slack's assumption of the mayor's office until January 1, 1930, when a city manager form of government will be installed, was not cleared of all obstacl however. Joseph L. Hogue, city controller in the administration wi ended its term in 1925, has fiJed svit in Circuit Court claiming that he i: the right- ful mayor on the contention that John L. Duvall was not legally elect- ed as mayor in 1 Hogue contend hat the late Lew Shank should have continued as mayor and that Hogue, as city con- troller, should have succeeded Shank upon his death, Duvall, recently convicted of violat- ing the cofrupt practices act, resigned several weeks ago at the time the city council held that Duvalil's conviction made him ineligible for office. The council appointed Claude E. Negley, council president, tempo- rary mayor, Claims Mayorship. Mrs. John L. Duvall claimed the mayorship as Duvall's city controller, resigning the position 15 minutes later after she had appointed Ira Holmes, attorney, city controller. Holmes gave up his claims to the office after the courts refused to va- cate a restraining order which Negley had obtained against Holmes. Friends of Walter Myers, Demo- cratic candidate against Duvall in the 1926 election, have also put forward claims that Myers should be recog- nized as the rightful mayor. Slack was United States district attorney for Indiana from 1916 to 1920, served in both Houses of the Indiana Legislature and was a Demo- cratic candidate both for the nomina- tion for governor and for United States Senator.

The balloting then was on a light wine and beer amendment to the State constitution. Complete returns from 40 counties ves- terday and incomplete returns from the others indicated that only 15 coun- ties had voted to support the league- indorsed Marshall bill.
