Aug. 15 (P— Fatisfaction with the progress of the vepublican presidential campaign, was expressed by Dr. Hubert Work, chairman of the republican national campaign committec when he arriv- «d here last night from San Fran- | cisco on his way to Washington. Conferring with a group of Utah party leaders, Dr. Work said that the national committee was better | organized now than at any similar | date in any previous campaign. “Prospects for a republican “vie- tory were never better than now,’ he gaid, adding that the committee's pian to conduct the campaign through the various state organiza- | tions rather than through a few largs headquarters was showing re- ring that there could be but one outcome fo the clection in No- vember, the national chairman pre- dieted that Alfred 1. Smith “would recelve probably as many clectoral votes as John W. Davis got four vears zgo.” He expressed the opin- ion that the republicans would get a | majority of the votcs that went to the third party movement in the last campaign. Mr. Wor ., accompanied by Gov. . Fisher of Pennsylvania. W.

HOUSE SILENT Former Adviser of President Wilson | I | | Declines to Speculate on Outcome of Election Wenham, Mass., Aug. 15 (P—Col Edward M. House, adviser to Presi- dent Wilson during the war years, hopes Governor Smith will win but declines to hazard a guces how the clection will go. Col. House arrived here yesterday | to spend a few weeks at the home of his duughter after a trip abroad. “Gov. Smith knows more about| govermnent than any man in Am " he said. “He is not a lawyer and yet he can debate gov- ernmental policics with men like | Root and Hughes or anybody and certainly hold his own. “He is a man of great ability. 8o indeed, is Hoover, whose stron, points are his executive abllity and efficiency in organization. Tt is ut- terly impossible to tell how the | election is going.” Mr. House expressed the beliet that the south would support the democratfle nomince. Texas, he pre- dicted, would go for Smith although he wus of the opinion that the re- publicans might increase their vote of four years ago. His visit in Europc had convine- ed him, Col. House said, that the Kellogg anti-war treaty was the greatest move toward peace since the organization of the iLeague of Nations, Ten More Churches in Mexico Ordered Closed Guanajuato, Mexico, Aug. 15 (P— Ten church buildings which had been allowed (o remain open ha e been ordered closed. The authori- ties charged that they found that alms collected within the bulldings were heing used to provide insur- gents operating in the mountains with arms and ammunition. _The alleged diversion of funds was dis- closed as a file recently seized dur- ing a combat. - An investigation is heing made to diccover the culprits who will be| exemplarily punished. |tler by dec 3| up that Suzannc has to accept such | a match. “Professional tennis is not a suc- cess. A good player cannot make as good a living in that sport as a zood boxer. football player or skater could make. But Suzanne does not regret having left the amateur ranks, for she had an agreeable journey through America.” What “Pere” Lenglen did not sa ;but what French tennis eritics have discovered, I8 that Suzanne is about 18 or 20 pounds over her best play, ing weight, and 1t is doubtful if she could ever again get down to the poundage at which she plays best, 114 ponnds as at Cannes in 1926.
