"Slowly but surely the Hoover administration whittles away at the grand old log. It permits, for instance, the manufacture and sale of a grape concentrate which becomes, through the simple operation of natural laws that are carefully explained by the salesman. 15 per cent wins.” In his general estimate of Mr. Hoover as President, the author says: “The presidency requires directness of mind and a strength of character which Mr. Hoover has I shown he does not possess. The White House needs a cooperative spirit, and he is a stark selfish individualist, not in a sinister or philosophic sense, but in that he ' believes himself divinely right al- ! ways. It requires a rough and resourceful, a Rooseveltian or Wilsonian, personality; and Mr. Hoover is by turn Hetful and feeble. He Is a victim of self-pity; he is our first hair-shirt hero." In 1920, the book states, Mr. Hoover at first agreed to seek the Democratic presidential nomination, but later was won over to the republicans by the late Senator Henry Cabot Lodge. At the 1928 Kansas City convention, the author declares, Mr. Hoover sought Senator George W. Norris, insurgent, as his vice-presidential candidate, but “the Nebraska maverick denounced the fantastic proposal as soon as it was broached to him.” All political conventions since the Volstead act have been "bacch-1 analian orgies," the book asserts, with the Kansas City one .‘‘perhaps the wettest and wobbliest." The drys fear only three men, Smith, Newton D. Baker, and .Morrow. the author holds. "Should the Democratic party become lawless and liquid, as may happen, the drys, must remain with the Republican party, even though it be dry in; name only.” Coolidge is termed President Hoover’s "most cynical and observant critic." A visitor at the Coolidge home in Northampton was met with the question “what's the wonder boy doing now?" it was related. The writer says "No, Coolidge was not the strong, «ilent figure a sycophantic press figured him to be. He was, on the contrary, small and shabby-crochety, querulous, selfish and wearisomely loquacious. Withal, he was personally | likeable and readily understandable —and an enigma only to punctuous ' and undiscerning folk." Owen D. Young "outranks most I -military, political and economic figures of history.” in the author’s ' opinion. "Democrats of course 1 cannot afford to nominate such a man for the presidency. Nor would they entertain the idea were it not that Mr. Young is a most artful and attractive propagandist.” o STREET FAIR INTEREST IS BEING SHOWN I (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) July 27 and smaller contributions; will be solicited this year.

YANKS START BIGGEST DRIVE] New York, July 13—(U.K)—The New York Yankees, in the midst of a drive they hope will carry them into second place, at least, in the American league, played the best baseball in the majors during the week beginning Monday. July 6, and ending Sunday, July 12. Two of toe Yankees’ five victories were scored over the worldchampion Philadelphia Athletics who had the next best record, five victories against two defeats. The Yankees had one defeat. 3he Boston Red Sox enjoyed the worst luck in the league, losing seven games and winning none. In the National league the St. Louis Cardinals set the pace with six victories and three losses. New York won four, lost two; Brooklyn broke even with four won and four lost, as did Chicago. New York led the Americans in run-scoring with 50. while Cleveland was second with 45. Phila/ delphia, Washington and Chicago tied for third place witli 39 each. Now York also had the best defensive record in the league, allowing only 24 runs. The New York Giants topped the National in run-scoring with 63. Chicago was second with 61. Th ■ St. Louis Cards were the best defensive club of the week, allowing but 30 runs in nine games. o FLIERS START BUDAPEST TRIP (CONTINUED FORM PAGE ONE) gator and radio operator. Captain Magyar, who is 33, has lived in the' United States and Canada four years. They reached the field here May 19 from Flint. Mich., where Emil Szalay, backer of the flight, resides. Szalay, a resident of the United States for 20 years, bought the plane for the fliers for $28,000 after their efforts to finance the venture failed. Glamorous flying endeavors were underway today in several sections of the world. Two Frenchmen, Joseph Lebrix I and Marcel Doret, were presumed to be flying high over Siberia in their flight from Paris to Tokio. They passed over Moscow last night, an hour ahead of the schedule they had set for themselves. At Waynoka. Okla., Laura In galls waited for clearing weather before starting for New York from where she will take off on a transAtaltnic flight attempt. Meanwhile an army ambulance sped across the country from El Paso, Texas, carrying Private Olaf ! Nelson of the army who is slowly i starving after swallowing two teeth. They are taking him to ■ Washington where efforts will be i made to have Dr. Chevalier JackIson of Philadelphia dislodge the iteeth. E. C. Chichester, enroute from ■ Australia to Japan, is expected at Manila shortly after arriving safely at Mati Davao. Harry Russell of Dearborn, Mich., was in the lead for the Ford trophy flight today as the aviators planned to leave Montgomery, Ala., for Gulfport, Miss., and New Orleans. Reginald Robbins and Harold S. I Jones, whose attempts to make a ' non stop refueling flight from Se { lattle to Tokio was frustrated by I bad weather, are enroute to Seattle from Fairbanks, Alaska, hoping to j make another start shortly on the jrans-Paciflc attempt. Edward Maloney and Seth Yerrington, flying a plane known as the Captain Carranza after the illustrious Mexlca flier who was killed here several years ago, were enroute from Roosevelt Field to Mexico City on a m n stop flight. Captain George Endres and Alexander Magyar. Hungarian fliers, left Roosevelt field today on a pro posed flight to Budapest. Start Variously Arranged In the first American flags sometimes the stars were arranged in a circle, sometimes scattered, and sometimes In a circle of twelve j ' with one In the center. Nature Good to Vulture I Vultures are endowed with most , acute powers of smell and vision, and are said to scent their food at i a distance of 40 miles. “Greenhorn” The word “greenhorn" Is of rural I Vngllsh origin and means an ox with the horns just making their I appearance, hence a young ox unI used to the ways of the plow. and. , metaphorically, a young man net yet | settled to his calling and place In 1 the world.

POLICE RADIO AIDS CHICAGO IN CRIME WAR Year Old System Declared Outstanding Success By Officials | Chicago, - (U.R) —Chicago’s police i radio, now one-year old, is declared lan outstanding success by police department and city officials. "It is the most important improvement made in the police department during the last year,” said Police Commisioner John H. Hannock in his annual report. E.F. McDonald, Jr., who arg&aized the technical committee which devised the pilice system said: “1 think it is the most impartant improvement in the last 25 years. Ihe police have developed an arm of the law as swift as the g in and 1 automobile. Within the near future every city of more than 100,000 will be equipped with radios, but so far Chicago is far in the lead." Au average of 245 police flashes are received daily by the 110 squad cars, compromising the police fleet, according to William P.Hillard, radio supervisor, who reported that during the last few months an average of 34 arrests daily are made as a direct result of the system. In instances, his reports show, a squad car has only to be stopped in order to be at the spot where the radio reports a crime. Hilliard announced that within | the near future the three stations, j north, south and west side, will be ' synchronized in order that one bulletin may be flashed simultaneously from all three. Fireboats Equipped In addition to the police radio, l the three fire department fireboats were equipped with radios which keep them in touch constantly with the fire dehrtments through the police radio. Plans are being discussed for a seperate fire department radio system. Cap:. John Anderson of the copst guard has asked for permission to install radio equipment on life sav- , ing boats. The idea of police radio had its inception in March, 1929, over a local station, which halted its protram- to announce crimb warnings to the five first police cars which were radio equipped. o Indiana Boys Held Staunton. 111., July 13 —(UP) — Perry and Charles Snyder, aged 18! and 16 respectively, were held in j jail here today for Indiana author-1 ities who are said to seek them on charges of automobile theft ami I forgery. The youths were arrested i here yesterday as they were driv- i ing through the city. When questioned they are alleged to have confessed to stealing an . automobile belonging to their employer, Ora Moughler, a farmer of Butler, Ind., They are als J alleged! to have confessed to forging several: checks, A state warrant for the pair charging them with larcenr and' forgery was sworn out. - Plans Are Approved i Washington, July 13—(UP)—The war department today approved I plans of a bridge to be constructed by the Kentucky, Indiana and Nor-' them railway across tic Ohio river ' at Rockport, Ind. o - 'DIKII 'JsnSnv u auiua uiaoj aj Suipads pailmanii is.ipq aqj.

Frank Hawks, air speed demon, is back home after spending a number of weeks in England and continental countries breaking various crosscountry speed records. Hawks sailed for Europe in April and as soon as his tiny monoplane was uncrated, he went about the business of record-1 breaking. His. first fliglit was from London to Rome, a distance of 950 miles, which he nuule in 5 hours 27 minutes.

In conjunction with the decree, i n governine.it proclamation was | issued, calling on the people to their heads”'' and asuring them that the depositors would be protected and that government trustees would supervise the transactions of tlie bank. .Despite th,e public tension, and the fear that the communists might start trouble or the fascists try to seize power, there was little violence today. A few minor dis-j turbances w r re reported. Uniden-

j tilled marauderss toned and Hroke i several windows in the luxurious ' hotel Esplanade in Berlin. Minor | disturbances occurred in front of two Berlin labor exchanges. Bolice in tli|S vicinity of the Behrenstrasse, Berlin’s Wall street, were reinforced to prevent assemblages. The Hindenurg decree prescribing the conditions under which the government undertook to guarantee the Danat bank depositors was issued under article 48 of th,e constitution, as a dictatorial emergency measure. It follows: “1. The Reich is empowered to assume guarantees cf the liquidity of th> Darmstaedter and National I bank which has bee threatened by I a monetary crisis. “2. The government, in case it ; assumes such guarantees, in pra> 1 tice may order that no conflsna- | tion, sequestration or injunctions 1 may bp enforced against the bank’s I property, and that bankruptcy proI ceedings may not be opened against the bank's property. The governi ment is empowered to enforce the ; same regulations with regard to ’ the property of responsive partners of the bank in case they are I deemed necessary in the interest ' jof the bank’s creditors. This regI ulation is to insure that any re-1 , | sponsible partner will be subject-I ; ed to the same restrictions which .' this dpcree applies to the banks I I themselves. “3. The government is empow- ! ered to promulgate instructions | J pertaining to the management of ■ the bank, fulfillment of the bank’s i obligations, contractural relations , and property claims which respon- ■ sible partners, employes or members cf the board of directors may i level against the bank, as well as •; to issue legal and administrative ■i ord.'rs for operation of this decree. Tlte government is authorized to • demand imprisonment of three years, fines or either penalty, for . violation of the government’s in- < st ructions. > “4. Mea.mncs enforced in acUcordance with this decree and its I j operation may not serve as a basis : for claims for compensation. “5. The decree is effective July i 13. 1931.” I It was signed by President von I i Hindenburg at Neudeck. s | f | Washington, July 13 —(U.R)—Og--4 ilen Mills, assistant secretary of 'he treasury, told newspapermen this morning that tile United 'States government had gone' as far as ’it could go in relieving Germany’s financial distress. "The Unit'd States,” Mills said, has put approximately $400,000,- ! 000 at Germany’s disposal through the president’s debt policy plan. 1 I and cannot do anything more.” Ambassador Et derick M. Sack-1 I ett reported to the state depart-1 I ment today from Berlin that help I was needed quickly to save the i Reich.

SHADOW OF GAS DEATH CHAMBER HOVERS OVER 5 Two Women In Group Facing Nevada Murder Charges By EARL H. LEIF United Press Staff Correspondent Reno, Nev., —(U.R) — The shadow of the lethal gas chamber today hangs over three men ami two women in Nevada who have been accused of first degree murder, for which the maximum penalty is death. Gunplay figured in four of the murders ami ji knife in the .fifth I All of the victims were men. Two I other slayings occured this year but the “Nevada code" of non-interfer-ence in private feuds and the law of range brought freedoms to both victors in the quarrels. A jury freed Frank Blondin, miner. for shooting and killing George Indiana, sheepherder, in the lonely Pyramid Lake section during an argument over grazing rights, and a coroner’s jiu‘y exonerated Bill Graham, Reno “big shot” in sporting circles, for slaying F.R. McCracken j during a gun duel in a Douglas AlI ley speakeasy. I The two women charged with mu | der are in the Elko County jail a- | waiting trial. Although one slaying occured in Wendover and the other in Midas, Nev., there is a strange j parallel between the cases —both of I tile men victims were shot in the back, both women were alone with the victims when the shooting occurred, both claim the dead men committed suicide and in each instance tlie officers claim suicide would have been impossible. Beautiful Rita Thurman is charged with shooting Ray Monsee, at Wendover, Nev., after their return from a country dance. The second woman, Mrs. Mary Young, was bound over for trial on first degree murder charges in the ] slaying of her - husband, Del H. Young, miner, who was found dead in the doorway of his cjbin with a bullet in his head. In Las Vegas, Nevada's southern metropolis, two men face death it convicted. Louis Potter has been accused of killing J.A.Lewis placing the body in a truck and overturning the truck to make it appear an ae cidental death. John Hall, 52, is charged with | shooting and killing Jack O'Brien j prospector. He was killed during ar
