Highlights Os Hoover’s Speech Os Acceptance Stanford Stadium, Palo Alto, Calif., Aug. 13 —(U.R) —Following are some of the terse epigrams from the acceptance speech of Herbert Hoover, the Republican Presidential nominee. “Our problems of tlie past seven years have been problems of reconstruction, our problems of the future are problems of construction." “It shall be an honest campaign; every penny will be publicly accounted for; it shall be a true campaign. Wo shall use words to convey our meaning, not to hide it.” “The poorhouse is vanishing from us.” “At one time we demanded for our workers a full dinner pail. Today we demand larger comfort and greater participation in life and leisure.” “The test of business is not its size; the test is whether there is honest competition, whether there is integrity and usefulness of purpose.” “Government weakens the moment that its integrity is even doubted.” “There must be no place for cynicism in the creed of America.” “Racial progress marches upon the feet of healthy and instructed children.” “A government that does not constantly seek to live the ideals of its young men and women falls short of what the Amreican people have a right to expect and demand from it.” “Our foreign policy has one primary object, and that is peace.” “We have no hates; we wish no further possessions; we harbor no military threats.” “We have fewer men in army uniform today than we have in police uniforms.” "I want to see our government great both as an instrument and a symbol of the nation’s greatness.” "We must direct economic progress in support of moral and spiritual profcress.” “Our party platform deals mainly with economic problems, but our nation is not an agglomeration of railroads, of ships, of factories, of dynamos or statistics. It is a nation of homes, a nation of men, of women, of children.” “Every man has the right to ask of us whether the United States is a better place for him, his wife and his children to live in, because the Republican party has conducted the government for nearly eight years." “Every woman has the right to ask whether her life, her home, her man's job, her hopes, her happiness, will be better assured by the continuance of the Republican party in power.” o Boys Use Bushes For Bath House; Women And Girls FLmbarrased Greenfield, Ind., Aug. 13. —(INS) — Women and girls are being emharassed by young boys clad only in smiles while changing from their street clothes to bathing suits in the bushes of Riley Park here, according to complaints made to authorities here. Several ladies who have been shocked by seeing nude boys in the paik have started a movement for a bath house cannot be had, the worna both house cannot be had, the women want the local authorities to keep boys from stripping themselves in the park bushes. The complainants pointed out that it was very embarrassing for girls and women to go to the park and see naked boys disporting themselves behind straggling bushes. The park is near' the famous Riley swimming hole where in the good old days bathing suits were not needed by the boys of Riley's days. •— o Fort Wayne Man Killed In Automobile Accident (Jolumbia City, August 13—(INS)— Hairy Bax, 24. of Fort Wayne, was killed and two of his companions.
