Hoover was welcomed to Worces- ter by Acting Mayor Carl R. Brow- nell, who declared that “the heart of this commonwealth beats warmly for Herbert Hoover.” The acting mayor was presented by Represen- tative George R. Stubbs of Massa- chusetts. 7 Welcoming the republican presi- dential candidate to Springfield, Mayor Fordyce 'C. Parker declared that *“Massachusetts so far is all right and safe, as is Springtield, for Herbert Hoover.” He added that Hoover's “type Is the type of man that this community desires to have as president of the ocountry.” The crowd which was banked for blocks behind police linea on the outskirts of the city, heard the mes- sage from the republican nominee who spoke from a stand built be- side the railroad track. Mra. Hoover and members of his personal party appeared with him. Walks (0 Stand Hoover left his special car to walk the short distance from the track to the stand. After he re- turned to the car he spent a few minutes shaking hands with men and women who crowded uround the rear platform despite the efforts of a police captain to keep them away. ] “I appreciate your coming here at this time in the morning to give me your greetings and I do thank you for the generosity of your recep- tion,” Hoover said. "It is always a grept pleasure to come to Spring- field. T have heen with you on previous occasions and on various missiens. I have always had a fine welcome in this city. “You will not expect me at this time of the morning and with a large and important delivery to be made | tonight to address you on political matters, but your coming here does evidence your interest in this cam- paign and this election. ~ Vital Issues “This is ®.time when we have he- fore us some of the most vital issues of our country.

Thanks Crowd “I again wish to thank you for the fine good will of your reception. Tt s heartening. It is strengthen- ing and it has been fine of you to come and to give me your greet- ings.” Accompanying the nomince, who left Washington shortly after mid- night last night, are Mrs. Hoover; their son, Allan, George Akerson and Larry Richey, assistants to Hoover; Mrs. Edith Nourse Rogers, member of congress from Massachuselts; re. presentative and Mrs. Charles L. Un- derhill, also of the Bay state, and Representative Franklin W. Fort, of New Jersey, secretary of the repub- licau national committee. There also was an’enlarged corps of newspaper correspondents and photographers on the train. No Stops S Save for those at Baltimore, Phil- adelphia, and New York for operat- ing purposes, the Hoover train made ng stops between the capital and Hartford, Conn, It was due at Springfield at 8:30 a. m.. and the Worcester stop was scheduled for 10:15 a. m. From Worcester the route was to Newtonville where the train was due at 11:15 a. m., from there, the jour- ney led by automobile through the suburbs and the city to Roston com- mon, for a formal welcome by the mayor. To See Vuller After the welcoming, a luncheon attended by members of the repub- ican state committee, chairman. and members of the county committees and the members of the Hoover party was planned followed by retirement to the Beacon street residence of Governor Fuller, where he will have dinner 1n private before driving to the agena. Tmportant Address This will be one of the most im- portant campaign addresses Hoover had made and the only one thus far |devoted evclusively to economic is |sues. The questions are regarded by him as of paramount importance the highly industrialized states of W England where the tariff long has been a foremost issue in presi- dential campaigns. 38 Stations Thirty-eight ‘radlo stations —elev- en in ecastern states, twelve in the middle western states, eight in the southern states, two in the Rocky Mountain states'and five on the Pacific coast—will broadcast the address which thus will be avail- able from coast to coast and bor- der to horder. Immediately after his speech Hoover will proceed to his train, which is scheduled to feave Boston at 10 p. m. passing through Provi- dence, New Haven and Hartford on the way hack to Washington, but stopping only for operating pur. poses. As Providence will be reached before midnight the nomi- nee probably will make a rear ‘ho made PW “ v\ho‘y satisfied.

This is the last he plans to make before departing for California on October 29 or 30. He will make one or two prepared addresses en route to California and.a final appeal to the voters from his Palo Alto home on November 5. Varying reports about conditions in some of the sta s through which he passes on this present trip have been made to Hoover with some party leaders from Massachusetts asserting that the Bay State was safe and others that it might be re- garded as doubtful. The democrats have been claiming it for weeks, but state republican managers are counting upon their final drive to hold it in the republican column and they believe the personal ap- pearance of the head of the party will be of material assistance. Rhode Island and Connecticut also’ have been regarded by many as in the doubtful column, but it is evident that the republican leaders are not as concerned about the situation in those two states as they are about the Bay State, SHITH HEADED FOR SEDALI, MISSOLRY (Continued from First Page) Ohio for the New York state capital. A tentative schedule calls for a visit of probably an hour in Indianapolis. May Visit Ohio It is not known definitely what Gov. Smith’'s plans are for nex' week. In some quarters it is be. lieved he may go into Ohio for a speech, probably at Cleveland the latter part of the week, but the nominee has not indicated what he | will do. As his train cut across Kentucky fast night for the Missouri river, Gov. fmith carried with him inspir- ing recoliections of his trip yester- day to the Lincoln shrine on top of a little knoll south of Hodgenville. Visits Lincoln Shrine Going by special train to the Ken- tucky town 60 miles southwest of Lonisville, the governor and his party were driven by automobile to the log cabin birthplace of the Great Fmancipator, stopping en route at the town square where stands a huge bronze statue of Lincoln. When his car came to a halt, the governor stood up and gazed bare- | headed at the seated majestic figure. Cheers came np from the several hundred persons grouped about the statue and in the square and the nominee responded with a wave of his hat. A Arriving at the shrine a few min- utes later, he was escorted up the &teps to the granite memorial now enclosing the well preserved log cabin in which Lincoln first saw the light more than a hundred years ago.

( The scene of the man who rose from the New York East Side to lead the fight of his party to place him in the White House guzing in reverent awe at the crude little rural structure that gave the nation one of its greatest leaders, evoked low-voiced comment from many of | those who looked on. | Standing before the entrance to the cabin, the nominee turned to his wife and chilcren and, in a low voice, said: “This was no royal road to great- ness.” Then he hung a large wreath on jonc of the protruding logs and | walked around the cabin, pausing to read some of Lincoln's writing en- graved on marbel plaques on the walls of the memorial. He seemed | particularly impressed with that'in { which the emancipator told of his i birth there on February 12, 1809, of | his later struggles to edicate him- |self, and upon reaching man.aood, | finding himselfable to “read, write and cipher to the rule of three.” Buys Souvenirs Approaching a souvenir stand in- side the chain feace encircling the cabin, the governor began picking out some corn cob pipes, pamphiets and pens and wooden plaques made from timber on the old Lincoln farm, and before he finished hand- ing them to his wife and other mem- bers of his immeciate party, he had spont $20. One of the | st pipes he bought found ‘ts way into the hand- bag of Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, wife of the artist, who is accom- panying him on 1" second campaign tour. A visit to the nearby spring which provided the Lincoln family vith water back in the frontier days, and from which the governor and Mrs. Smith drank, ended the tour of the historic zpot and the governor soon was on his way to Lonisville. He left there around midnight last night.
