HOOVER PIGTURED AS FIGHTER ONLY Former Secretary of Ex- President Says He Does Not Seek Nomination. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, December 5.—Herbert | Hoover's former secretary was the au- | thority for an assertion today that the former President “wants nothing for himself” and is not building up a political organization for 1936. ‘Theodore Joslin, writing in the De- cember 7 issue of the magazine To- day, said Hoover will intensify his attacks on the New Deal during the coming year, but not with the idea of gaining public office. Presented as “Fighting Quaker.” Joslin pictured the former President as a “fighting Quaker” in 1936, and said: “He will give everything he has to the fight—cold facts, logic, satire, humor. So far as he is concerned, the chips may fall where they may.” The writer, who served as Hoover's secretary from 1931 to 1933, asserted the former President “has one par- ticular objective in life today. ‘That is to get the absolutely fundamental national issues before the American people. * * * “As the titular leader of the oppo- sition, he will go after the merits of the issues hammer and tongs. He will confine his arguments to princi- ples. There will be nothing personal in his criticisms. He never ‘smears’ men.” Fight for Constitution. Joslin pictured the Hoover of today as an amiable country squire who chats with gas station attendants and other laboring men and who likes to munch peanuts while watching a foot ball game. Hoover is confident, Joslin said, that “when the final history of this period is written it will assert that he beat the depression in 1932 and within the Constitution of the United States.” Elevators for Up Trips Only.

NEW YORK, December 5.—Special Prosecutor Thomas E. Dewey, who 'was recently appointed to investigate city rackets, yesterday seized the records of Flour Truckmen’s Association, Inc., in a move to cut bread prices here. Dewey charged bakers were forced to pay annual tribute of $1.000,000 to racketeers. He sald bakers paid 15| cents extra on each barrel of flour carted into the city. The price of carting flour was raised | from 20 to 35 cents a barrel by the association in 1933, Dewey charged. Seventy per cent of flour used in New York, he added, was carted by the association.

They ran to the nearest trees, loosed their clumsy footgear and scampered upward. This procedure was repeated every time they came down and tried to continue the journey. After nightfall they built a fire, but the pursuer kept his vigil. They final- ly managed to out-distance the moose and reach a ranch. They'd had no food or sleep in 30 hours.
