THE .. EVENING STAR, WASHINGTO. NESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1928.° VICTORY OF HOOVER HAILED IN COMMENT AT HOME AND ABROAD MOODY CRITICIZES- CHOICE OF RASKOB Smith’s Manager Is Called “Cynical Commercialist With Alcoholic Complex.” By the Assoclated Press. AUSTIN, Tex., November 7.—John J. Raskob, manager of the Democratic na- tional campaign, was criticized in a statement issued here last night by Gov. Dan Moody, Democrat, which said that the popular vote given Smith was “a magnificent personal tribute and that the South is still solidly Demo- cratic.at heart.” “Unfortunately for Gov. Smith and the Democrats the management of the campaign was intrusted to Mr. Raskob, a cynical commercialist with an alco- holic complex, who has no conception of the attitude or ideals prevailing in the South or West. The statemen's which he persisted in issuing had a tendency to drive votes from the Demo- cratic party which all the regular Democrats in the South could not over- come. “The large popular vote which Gov. Smith received is a magnificent per- sonal tribute to him. He ran the race of a strong and sincere man. The people of the South voted their intense convictions on the prohibition questicn. ‘The Republicans can take no heart in the vote their ticket received in the South, for the South in sentiment and feeling is still solidly Democratic. The next national election will reveal this as a fact. “The tremendous vote given Franklin D. Roosevelt by the citizens of the Em- pire State attest the esteem in which he is held by the people of the State and mark for him a continuous and growing place among the leaders of thought in national affairs.” SOUTH _DAKOT_A GIVES HOOVER 36,000 LEAD By the Associated Press. SIOUX FALLS, S. Dak., November 7—Herbert Hoover’s claim to South Dakota's five electoral votes swelled to 2 36,000 majority as the unofficial count grew to within 75,000 votes of the esti- mated balloting by the State’s electoral ‘Tuesday. The State’s three incumbent Re- publican members of Congress held substantial leads over Democratic op- ponents, as did all Republican State office candidates, with the exception of the candidate for governor. The Demo- cratic incumbert, W. J. Bulow, held a lead of nearly 20,000 majority over Attorney General Buell F. Jones. Hoover had 105,862 votes in the un- official tally as opposed to 69,338 for Smith, with ‘reports in from 1,129 of the State's 1,923 precincts. HOOVER GETS IDAHO. BOISE, Idaho, November 7.(). Herbert Hoover swept ahead to a_ twe to-one lead over Gov. Alfred E. Smith in Idaho returns, which early today gave the presidential-elect assurance of the State’s four electoral votes. Returns from 265 precnicts of the 849 in the State gave Hoover, 32,853; Smith, 17,117.

HOOVER WILL FIT INTO HER NEW ROLE AS THE FIRST LADY (Continued from Eleventh Page.) end with her or some holiday from the Holton Arms School she was never left alone. When Mrs. Hoover accepted the invitation of the Women’s National Press Club to attend an evening enter- tainment, she requested an invitation for the niece, whom she could not leave alone. Miss Large has had many ad- vantages of official social life through being with her aunt, and she, too, will furnish added interest to the White House. Lovers of the Outdoor Life. Both Mr. and Mrs. Hoover are out- door people who never stay indoors if t is possible to be in the open. The ‘White House affords many opportuni- ties for exercise and for practically living outside. Former President ana Mrs. Taft instituted the custom of sometimes dining on the terrace just off the state dining room, and after that other Presidents occasionally did the same thing, while many mistresses of the White House have served tea on the south front balcony. The most glorious spot about the mansion at this moment is the garden of hardy an- nuals on the south side of the east terrace, and it is safe to say that none of the beauties of the grounds or house will be allowed to deteriorate under Mrs. Hoover’s watchful eyes. < It is truthfully said that Mrs. Hoover is more of a homemaker than a house- keeper, and after Mr. Hoover entered the big field of national affairs and demanded so much of her time, she always kept a housekeeper, or home manager is perhaps a better term. Mrs. Bowman, a charming, cultured person, has filled this place in these last hur- ried days since the convention and a long time before. She knows all the little peculiarities of taste in both Mr. and Mrs, Hoover, arranges for the com- fort of guests at all receptions in their home, assisted quite generally on Mrs. Hoover’s days at home and is a fa- vorite with her friends. Undoubtedly Mrs. Bowman will ac- company the family to the White House on March 4. Mrs. Hoover a Superior Hostess. It has frequently been said that Mrs. Hoover, caring so much more for the serious side of life, would not keep up the social White House traditions. It is quite certain this is not true, for as a cabinet member’s wife she did her duty in unstinted fashion, and, while she kept a secretary or two, always favorite young friends from California, she gave social matters her personal supervision. ‘When she enters the White House she will find a well established and capable social staff quite competent to keep her from the shoals of inexperi- ence which beset the early First Ladies of the Land. Many of the men con- nected with the White House and with whom she will come in constant con- tact are already well known to her and have spent more than a quarter of a century in service in the mansion. A former- mistress there, now the wife of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, says 'that there is never any publican ticket was indicated by early retul ceremony about moving into the White | AM GRATIFIED," CURTIS DECLARES Vice President-Elect on Way | to Washington to Rest After Hard Campaign. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, November 7.—Informed of the Republican landslide while still clad in pajamas aboard the train which is carrying him to Washington, Vice President-elect Charles Curtis exclaim- ed “That's great,” as a smile beamed over his face. “I am gratified with the returns,” the Senator sald. “Mr. Hoover made a wonderful campaign. Personally, I am grateful to the American people for the splendid indorsement given the Re- publican ticket.” He had arisen not long before his arrival in Chicago and had not been notisled of his election until this morn- ing, when Sanford Jarrell, representa- tive of the Republican. national com- mittee, informed him of the Republican success. Mr. Curtis had retired last night after leaving his Topeka home with strict orders not to be disturbed, no matter which way the election turnad. Mr. Curtis was met at the station by his son, Harry Curtis, Chicago law- yer, and other friends, with whom he chatted until time for his departure for Washington. If relaxation is not to be had in Washington, the Senator said he would go to some other point, where he could rest, and should this be true it was believed he would go to the estate of his daughter, Mrs. Webster Knight, near Providence, R. L House. You just drive up and walk in—and there you are. After various conferences with Mrs. Coolidge before March 1, that is just what Mrs. Hoover and her family will do—walk right in. Her Father Held in Memory. ‘That Mrs. Hoover will feel the straints of her position is quite ap- parent from her e:&y history, for she loves the great outdoor life, the in: formality of camping, and one of her dearest memories is of the long over- land journeys she has taken with her father, the late Charles Henry, with whom a motor trip, often camping by the way, was a delightful pastime. It is a touching thing to Mrs. Hoover that his love of the open is probably what hastened the death of her father, who died about the time of Mr. Hoover's official notification of his nomination at Monterey. Eighty-two years is a bar to mountain climbing in the rarified air of California, and yet Mr. Henry, who was very robust, determined to spend the Midsummer at the Henry Camp at Placerville, in the northern mountains of the State. It was there in the small country hospital that he succumbed to the too high altitude. f Like the present mistress of the ‘White House, Mrs. Hoover did what the }mbnc expected of her, and what her ather would have desired—she went through with her duties in the public eye beside Mr. Hoover, who needed every moment of her time. Death re- moved Mrs. Henry several years ago, and then, as at the time of her father’s gelth, she courageously assumed her uties as a cabinet hostess very shortly after the funeral. After the death of her father Mrs. Hoover laid aside the bright colors she so loved, and now if she is in mourning it is so light as not to attract attention and is scarcely more than the general run of women re- wear in following out the prev: mode for black. g iy Snappy Style Coupled With REAL ECONOMY! EUROPE SEES GAIN INHOOVER VICTORY Expects Firm Stand for U. S. Rights, but in Broad- minded Way. BY PAUL SCOTT MOWRER. nd Chicago Dail By Cable 16 (3" Convriant; 1028 Do PARIS, November 7.—Herbert Hoover, by his election to the presidency of the United States, now occupies, ac- cording to the almost unanimous view of the Europeari press, one of the most «xalted positions of mankind, with “despotic” power unequaled in the world. It is expected here that Mr. Hoover will not only prolong the foreign poli- cies of President Cooldige, but will ag- gressively encourage the development of Ameican foreign trade, the Ameri- can merchant marine and American investments abroad. That he will reso- lutely defend American interests every one in France, Great Britain, Germany and Italy considers certain. It is felt, however, that his interpretation of these interests- will be the opposite of narrow-minded. His Knowledge Praised. It is believed that Mr. Hoover's per- sonal knowledge of foreign countries will enable him to view the world’s common problems sympathetically and far-sightedly. For example, his influ- ence in the forthcoming reparations and disarmament negotiations is ex- pected to be practical rather than theoretical or merely prejudiced. He cares more, it is implied, for concrete results than for upholding abstract principles. ‘There is also satisfaction that his vigtory was so decisive. A govern- ment supported by a firm legislative majority is always easier to work with internationally than one whose ma- jority is shifting and doubtful. In France the elections are held to demonstrate that the American pros- perity of today is not a sham, as some have pretended, but very real, indeed. This deduction should tend to promote still more than at present the prestige abroad of American industrial meth- ods. Great Britain, according to tele- phonic reports just received, hopes that Mr. Hoover, with his wide experience of world.affairs and his understanding of the psychology of nations, will prove a, strong advocate of cordial Anglo- American relations. Germany, according to _telephonic advices, feels that the results demon- strate once more the essential con- servatism of the United States, and are a prelude to increased American financial activity in Central Europe. The German g:pen think Dwight W. Morrow will <hosen Secretary of State and S. Parker Gilbert, agent gen- eral for reparations, will be made presi- dent of the Federal Reserve Board. One Real Case.

POLICY APPROVAL Official and Business Circles Expect Hoover's Knowledge of Europe to Be Asset. By the Assoclated Press. ROME, November 7.—The election of Herbert Hoover was received with sat- isfaction in the Roman official and business world today as an indication of the continuation of an American policy with which both were familiar. The intimate knowledge of European problems possessed by the President- elect was counted on to forestall any possible difficulties which might arise in the future. Parties of Americans stayed up last night to hear the returns, but radio transmission was faulty and no definite word of the result was received in Rome until this afternoon. Fertility Washed Away. The statement has been made au- thoritatively that it takes 10,000 years for nature to form a foot'of soil from the earth’s rock and that 20 times as much fertility is washed away each year by rains as is used for crop pro- duction. To replace this fertility by the cheapest fertilizers would cost more than $2,000,000,000 a year for the RASKOB CONGEDE HOOVER'S VICTORY Democrats Fought Gallant and Clean Fight, Chairman of Party Says. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, November 7.—John J. Raskob, Democratic national chairman, at 12:40 o'clock this morning conceded the election of Herbert Hoover. A statement issued at Democratic na- tional headquarters by Mr. Raskob read: “The Democratic party has made a gallant and clean fight for the principles in which it believes. The verdict of the American people has been rendered and, in accordance with Democratic principles, we cheerfully accept the will of the majority and shall take our place in the ranks of the majority of Amer- ican citizens who desire the future wel- fare of our country.

S. Under Hoover Expected to Be Satisfactory. By the Assoclated Press. GENEVA, November T7.—American co-operation in international affairs, in- cluding the activities of the League of Nations, is what the League looks for under the presidency of Herbert Hoo- . Officials here are of the bellef that Mr. Hoover realizes from hard experience the interdependence of na- tions and the need of international collaboration. The same officials emphasized Mr. Hoover’s declaration in his acceptance speech that though the United States R NN had declined membership in the League it would be glad to co-operate in the League's endeavors to promote scien- tific, economic and social welfare and secure the limitation of armaments, which they consider the widest classi~ fication of the American attitude to- the League ever pronounced by an_American official. Through Mr. Hoover’s influence the United States has participated in num- erous League economic conferences, and this collaboration, it is expected, will be extended as the League now is faced with a heavy economic and financial program in connection with world eco- nomic and financial readjustment. 0ld Shoes Make New Shoes.
