HOOVER GETS Bl KENTUCKY WELCOME (Continued from First Page) front of the Jefferson county court- house. Despite the Grst bad weather the republican pominee had encoun- tered in his campaign a large crowd greeted him at the station and along the streets through which he passed on the way to the armory. Given Groat Ovation As the nominee appeared on the armery platform he was given an oviation snd it was with difficulty that Mayor Willlam P. Harrison, of Louisville, obtained order to intro- duce, first Mrs. Hoover and then Mr, Hoover. ‘The crowd gave a real Kentucky cheer for Mrs. Hoover, who smiling- ly acknowledged the greeting. Hoover departed from his pre- pared address to pay a tribute to Mrs. Alvin T. Hert, national com- mitteewoman for Kentucky who has had charge of the women's division of the republican national com- mittes in Washington. Text of Hoover's Address Mr. Hoover in his address said: “T am grateful to you for your gen- erous welcome. This reception is in keeping with that hospitality of the men and women for which your city has been known for a hundred years. No one can come within its boun- daries without being reminded of that long list of great leaders which Kentucky has given to the nation from Henry Clay to Henry Wattep. son. “I know the cordial and friendly greeting which you give to me is not in the spirit of partisanship. In this agsembly are members of both par- ties, and it {s no little gratification to me that you have taken the time to come to bid me welcome. We are now nearing the close of the cam- paign. The {ssues have been thor- oughly discussed. . Within a few days more than 40,000,000 people will go to the polls to express their views 25 to the character of the govern- ment and the policies they wish to see continued in their country. Greatest Spoctacle “There is no other country in the world where forty million people on a single day will go to the ballot box to express their determination. It has never before happened iIn all his. tory. Tt isthe greatest spectacle and inspiration of self government the world has ever witnessed. “The American people are meet- ing the greatest responsibility of government when they go to the polls and express themselves on election day. The enormous regis- tration which brings this unpar. alleled vote to the polls is itself ex- pressive of the seriousness of the fssues and the earnestness and con- viction with which our people are meeting them. This evidence of un- precedented interest in the future of of the republic must be gratifying to every one who has its welfare at heart. It means more than triumph of our party over another; it means more than victory of one individual #s against another; it means in the end the trlumph of that everlasting principle of self-government upon which America has grown to the leadership of the world, “The relationship of our govern. ment to our people and to all their activities increases day by day. Our relationship with the rest of the world is vastly expanded; our inter- est in world peace is vastly in- ereased. We deal with vastly more intricate and delicately adjusted business systems than ever before. The policies of our government bear an increasing responsibility for con- tinued national prosperity and na- tional progress, not only moral but spiritual. Upon the soundness of its principles and policies depend mnot alone the employment and high standards of living of our people but the peace of the world and the place that America occupies in the world. y of Kentucky “The prosperity of Kentucky i completely inter-dependent on the progress and prospery of the na- tion.

Not every group has marched in the fromt rank but no man can say that our country is not stronger, that his hopes are not greater than they were seven years ago. The peace of the world has been solidifie. We have gained in domestic peace and prosperity. Prosperity is no idle expression. The continuation of prosperity is of vital interest to every worker’s job and to the safety and safeguard of every business and every home. The 41ssues before us are moral as well as economic. They affect the welfare of every home. The result of the election will af- fect the direction of our national thought and our national actions for many years to ceme. “I do not belleve the American people, in a time of such manifest evidence of progress, assurance of peace, advancement of prosperity, advancement of education and mor- al forces, would wish to change in their policies.” Leaves For St. Louis Louisville, Ky., Noov, 2 UM—Her- bert Hoover left here at 11:20 2. m. for St. Louis en route to California after delivering an address while his train stopped in Loulsville.

The republican standard bearer, who had not had his breakfast when his special train arrived at 7:43 a. m., hurriedly put on a heavy over- coat and, bareheaded, appeared on the rear platform of his private car and waved to several hundred per- sons who stood cheering in a hard rain to Yreet him. Radio station WLW quickly placed a microphone before Mr. Hoover, but factory whistles, cheer- ing of the crowd and noise of the train made it impossible for him to speak. -All that was Feard was a hearty “good bye” as his train slowly departed from the Winton Place station.

It was & typical re-en- actment of New York’s pageant of welcome, staged this time in honor |of a native son. The governor, riding with Mrs. {Smith, Mayor Walker and George |W. Olvany, head of Tammany hall, |grinned broadly and waved contin- uously a lustrous brown derby. i Forty autos conveyed the official |party. In one was Franklin D. | Roosevelt, who nominated Governor | Smith at Houston and is now run- | | ning for governor of New York on | |the democratic ticket. Mrs, Roose- velt, Mrs. Walker and John H. Mc- | Cooey, democratic leader of Brook- |1yn, were other well kngwn figures. | Behind the official cars rolled 25 !m&chinel filled with reperters and |two buses for the camera men. The ibands rode in buses, tpo. No Curb Room | Long before the parade had left {the Battery standing room om the | curbs along the route was unobtain. {able. The crowd overflowed into the park at Madison Square, while the steps of the public library at 42nd street and Fifth avenue were filled. A drizzling rain didn’t seem to mat- ter. When the governor arrived at the Battery, just before moon, skippers of harbor craft tied down the whis- tles of their boats. Mr. Smith and those who were to ride with him |stepped into his car at two minutes | | past the noon hour, and the parade | was under way. From Bowling Green to city hall the throng was particularly large, despite the rain. People were mass- | ed solidly on side streets for ! block back: others saw the proces- sion from dizzy window ledge perches, and all et up a great cry | |which followed the famous brown |derby as it bobbed this way and | that. The top of the governor's car | had been folded back, and he sat on it, Lindbergh fashion. Red, white and blue confetti {seemed to be the favorite ammu- nition of the office-building watch- ers, who sent it down in showers into the sticky street. Workers in the federal building gave the can- |didate a particularly heavy sprink- ling of this festive material. Passes Hoover Buttons Vendors of buttons, flags ‘end miniature derbies of chocolate hue patrolled Broadway and Fifth ave. |nue. One man, an official of the| | Young Men's Republican club, | braved catcalls and conscientiously |passed out Hoover buttons. That Was on the avenue at 4ith street. The parade was only a starter on the nominee's program for the day. | Tonight, in the Academy of Music in | Brooklyn, he will go on the air at |10 o'clock for another hour's cam- | paign speech. On the platform with him will be Franklin D. Roosevelt, | demoeratic candidate for the office | he now holds and the man who dubbed him the “Happy Warrior” in his nominating speech at Houston. | Personal Frieods The two men, long personal and political associates, will cooperate in a twin assault on the republican |strongholds in New York. State is- sues will be the main subject of their arguments and opposition, leaders and candidates for various state offices are expected to come in for a lashing. Albert Ottinger, attorney general in Smith's cabinet and republican candidate for governor, and H. Ed- mund Machold, republican state chairman, already have been tar- gets for Governer Smith in one or two campaign talks, and it was re. garded as a foregone conclusion that these two again will be marks for the nominee's verbal darts. Governor Smith is not certain about his plans for next week, or beyond his Madison Square Garden speech tomorrow night. He believes, however, that his radio talk elect eve will be delivered from the Na- tional Broadcasting Company’s new studio instead of from his suite in the Hotel Biltmore. The talk will be broadcast immediately after Herbert Hoover has delivered his final word to the electorate at 10 o'clock east- ern time from Palo Alto, Calif. The democratic nominee reiterat- ed his belief at a press conference yesterday that there was something “in the air” that could mean noth. ing but victory. Asked for his reac- tion to the receptions he had receiv- ed over the country he said: In the Afr “Just what I said the other day. It | is in the air. It means victory; that is what it means.” Then he asked his questioner if he had been in Newark the night before. Receiving an affirmative re- ply, he added: “There yas something doing over there, wasn't there?” “That is why I am asking you about this,” the reporter pursued. “It's in the air,” Smith replied. “It is the same old story.” ——— Funerals (== ———————— Mrs. John Hill Funeral services®for Mrs. Emily (Harvey) Hill, wife of John Hill of 159 Vance street, were held this aft- ernoon at 3 o'clock at the home with services conducted by Rev.

Water Fireman Faces Trouble Locating Fire New Orleans, La., Nov. 3 (M—One of the hardest jobs for a water-going fire department is finding the fire, says John J. C. Pasley, fire captain of the fire tug Deluge, guardian of New Orleans harbor. “When a building is burning you can see where and how it is burn- ing. When a ship is afire, however, it's not so easy. It may be afire in any one of a hundred places. Gen- erally, though, you can find the fire by searching for the hottest place on deck. But ever after you have done this, your work has just started, because then you have to learn the construction of the ship, the ar- rangement of bulkheads and hatches and learn the nature of the cargo.” The Deluge, the captain says, an- swers about four calls a month in rious kinds.
