Ernest Geissler, who has a real estate office in the same building suggested that police talk to Hugh Norris, ward committeeman and ward leader for the Thompson- State’'s Attorney Crowe faction of the republican party. Norris said he did not know who threw the bomb. He recalled, how- ever, that the courts are still at- tempting to ‘etermines whether he or Johu (Dingbat) Oberta was clect- ed committeeman last April. | the know ' that Smith's victory would not have meant » radical change in the foreign policy of the United States but regarding these two points, it was sufficient to know that the huge influence of the pres- ident of the republic would lean in that direction and admired him for his courage in saying so. For these reasons we lam:nt Smith's defeat. “The large majority given Hoover makes us think that the imperia- listic policy followed for years in the Phillippines and Spanish America will continue and this we of course regret.” MILLARD FILLMORE PERRY Providence, R.
