Smith spoke in Brook,yn last night, in behalf of the state democratic ticket. He prepared his final campaign speech for delivery tonight in Madiscn Square Garden. President Coolidge, In a telegram to Herbert Hoover, expressed his confidence in Hoover’s election and his fitness to carry on the efficient administration of the government. Herbert Hoover, in his St. Louis speech, as he paused on his homeward journey to California, promised that 'determination’’ of the farm relief problem might be achieved before next harvest. Senator Charles Curtis, Republican vice-presidential nominee, in a speech at Moberly. Mo., attacked Gov. Smith's prohibition stand and said he did not want “the head of Tammany hall to befome the leader of the nation.’’ Speaking in Dayton, Ohio, Senator Joseph T. Robinson, democratic nominee for vice-president, denounced Hoover for allowing three food “monopolies" to “fix their own prices.” o Student, 17, Confesses To Killing Young Girl — Port Richmond, N. Y.

BELIEVE GIRL WAS MURDERED By Jack F. Hiertz, UP Staff Correspondent Lake Bluff. 111.. Nov. 3 —(U.PJ Firm in the belief that Miss Elfrieda Knaak was murdered, John U Taylor, coroner of Lake county, today prepared to X-ray the skull to substantiate his belief she was clubbed and then forced into the Bluff police station furnace. “I have reason to believe she was struck in the back of the neck" Taylor said. He refused to go into detail;but it was recalled that relatives had said there was an injury on the nape of her neck when the woman was taken to a hospital. George Hargjaves, private detective investigating the burning, told the United Press that he had discovered a depression on th back of Miss tknaak’s neck that led him to believe she had been hit with a red hot iron bar or an instrument of a similar nature. Miss Knaak died yesterday in the Alice Home hospital in Lake Forest after lingering in a semi-delirious state for three days. She was found Tuesday morning on the basement of the police station, nude and with her legs, arms, shoulders and head burned almost to the bone. Hargraves said the depression on Miss Knaak s neck was about an half inch wide and extended from the middle to the rigt’ side of the neck. o . SMITH TO END DRIVE TONIGHT (CONTSNVED FHOM PACE OSK) just before election," he said at another point, arguing that government costs are bound to increase because of increased governmental activities. The speech had many such choice Smithian morsels as the following: “With all due respect to the comptroller—l love him but all our comptrollers give you reports that nobody in the world can read. It is just the habit of accounting. You can do better with a doctor’s prescription. How about that Doc?’’ (Turning around to Senator Copeland, Democrat, New York, a physician). o MRS. J. R. RIGGS URGES WOMEN TO SUPPORT SMITH (COSTINI ED FHOM PAGE USE) to him talk for twenty minutes. She said that when she started home, site felt that he “filled the bill in every way,” and she has been working diligently for him ever since then. "If there were anything wrong with Alfred E. Smith, it would not have to be whispered." said Mrs. ftiggs. Two Main Issues Mrs. Riggs declared there were only two big issues in this campaign, namely, agricultural equality and honesty in government. She said she and her husband were farmers and that if anyone was for agricultural equality, they were. “We borrowed money in the spring to pay our taxes, and we bad to borrow mote this fall to pay the taxes on our farm, and the Lord only knows how we will ever pay it back unless Al Smith is elected president,” said Mrs. Riggs. “The way for a farmer to decide how- to vote is to put his own hand into his own pocket. If he finds a lot of money there and he has a fine automobile, radio, no debts and everything he wants, then he’s an oddity and ought to vote the Republican ticket. But if be has no money in his pocket and does not have the comforts of life, he owes it to himself to vote for Governor Smith and the rest of the Democratic ticket." In discussing prohibition. Mrs. Riggs said, “there is a difference between modification and nullification and we know what nullification is now. That’s why I, as a perfectly temperate woman, am supporting Governor Smitn. We wi>l always have the eighteenth amendment. The Volstead act is a different thing and may be changed I would rather have each state control its own piohibition enforcement than to have Andrew Mellon, who openly boasts that he has $35,000 worth of liquor In his cellar and not a drop of it is for sale because he intends to drink it all himself, at the head ot the enforcement bureau." Mrs. Riggs touched briefly on the issues of the state campaign. “In lu-

liana, were trying to bring back the state's good name. We have nominated for governor a man who is honest, sincere, true and stands squarely on his feet, who could not be influenced to do a dishonest deed. That man is Frank C. Dailey. This is not a partisan movement. It is non-partisan, and we want and expect thousands of Republicans to join us in the movement.” —i—■ ■■ 'O' - ■ ■■ Lieutenant Governor Is Sued By His Mother Evansville.
