Smith in their recent acceptance speeches. The program will be broadcast from Btation WRC, Washington, at 7 o'clock (Eastern daylight saving time), through the courtesy of the National Broadcast- ing Co. Representative Fort has been a stu- dent of the farm problem for several years and was the leading spokesman for thz Republican administration in the farm debates in the last session of Congress.

She arrived Tues- day at national headquarters, where she outlined to Mrs. Hert plans for getting out the woman vote in Ohio, and will return home Thursday for a meeting of State leaders, with which the organized Hoover-Curtis campaign will be inaugu- rated. Mrs. Clark told Mrs. Hert that the women of Ohio are strong Hoover sup- rters. “His humanitarian activities uch their hearts,” she said, “and his deeds and achievements appeal to their intellects.” “It is unusual to find a man who is s great a business man as Herber: Hoover has proved himself to be who i’;t finds time to be actively concerned the welfare of ths children of our country,” Mrs. Clark said. “As president of the American Child Health Associ- ation, he gives impetus to the work of that organization and is indirectly re- sponsible for improving the health of our juvenile population. In every one of his public addresses he stresses the importance of giving children an oppor- tunity for health, education and happi- ness. ‘hat alone is enough to win the ad- a motor car!
