HOOVER, SMITH FOES PREPARE PARLEYJJRIVES Farm Relief Advocates and * K. K. K. Carry Fight 7 ,> to Conventions. BY C. J. LILLEY WASHINGTON, May 21.—Delegates to both national conventions are to be bombarded with propaganda against leading candidates, it became apparent here today. Farm relief advocates are planning to cor in Kansas City to protest against Herbert Hoover's nomination by the Republicans. Drys and members of Ku-Klux Klan are ready to assemble in Houston to make a last ditch fight against Governor A1 Smith. Word of these two movements has been received by several Senators and Congressmen, who arewondering what the effect will be. Oklahoma is the first State to form a protest group against Smith. Senator Thomas has been notified of it and estimates more than 5,000 Oklahomans will go to Houston to bring pressure on the Oklahoma delegation, which is considered to be pro-Smith. Protest mass meetings are being held in several Oklahoma communities. Southeastern States, which are preparing to to send uninstructed dry delegation to the Democratic meeting are organizing large groups of drys to accompany them in a fight to prevent Smith's nomination. Alabama is said to be one of these States. Heflin Cautious Senator Heflin is planning to attend the convention, although he is not a delegate. Senator Black, the other Alabama Senator, says that he doesn't intend to go. Black, like Heflin, opposes Smith’s nomination. . Although Heflin has been attacking Smith almost daily in the Senate, he has been careful not to mention any connection with a third party. Friends say while Heflin may favor an independent group to eliminate Smith, the fear of his own fiosition in Alabama keeps him ilent. The Democratic committee -in his State can exact a pledge when he runs for re-election in 1930 that Heflin has voted for all nominees of the Democratic party for two years previous. Predict Smith Landslide If Smith is nominated and Heflin fails to vote for him, he is liable to disqualify himself for re-election, it is said. i Heflin has talked of a bolt by ‘‘Jeffersonian Democrats” and the reforming of the Democratic party. Just what this talk will amount to will be determined after Smith is nominated, if he goes through with the whoop that is being predicted by his friends. LUDLOW SPENT $689 Candidates File Statements of Primary Expense. Louis Ludlow, Democratic nominee for Congress from the Indianapolis district, spent $689.71 on his campaign, according to his expense account filed today with County 1 Clerkk George O. Hutsell. * J.

INDIANAPOLIS AIRPORT WEATHER CONDITIONS AT 9:30 A. M. (Compiled lor The Times bv Government Weather Observer J. H. Armington and Donald McConnell, Government aeronautical observer.) West wind. 2 miles an hour; barometric Pressure, 29.84 at sea level; temperature, 2; ceiling, about 4,000 ieet; visibility, 5 miles. Bu United Press OSLO, Norway, May 21.—Plans for a weather service from the meteorological headquarters in polar regions were outlined today by Capt. George H. Wilkins, on his way here after his flight over the top of the world. Captain Wilkins said he had conferred already with Senator Guglielmo Marconi regarding the service. Marconi, he said, had approved the plans as practicable by means of short-wave radio messages. Wilkins outlined his plans in an interview while on his way here from Spitsbergen. He is expected here Thursday. The king and queen have invited him to stay at the royal residence of Gamlehaugen, Bergen. • Before he left Spitsbergen Wilkins had said that on his projected South Pole flight he planned to make an aerial camera survey of the Ross Sea and Graham Land areas, with a view to establishing meteorological stations. Today Wilkins supplemented this by saying that he intended his weather service to go all over the world, to warn meteorologists of prospective w'eather conditions. He decided on establishment of the stations, Wilkins said, when he read that drought had killeld thousands of animals in Australia. He said he believed a polar weather service would be of great value agricuturally and economically.particularly in Australia, New Zealand, South America and southern California. Preparation of the stations. Wilkins said, would take fifteen years. Wilkins advanced the theory, which he had mentioned before, | that submarines could make the trip j between Spitsbergen and Alaska, be- | cause the ice was sufficiently open to permit them to rise to the surface when necessary. Wilkins said his South Pole flight was not intended to compete with that of Commander Richard E. Byrd I but, like his other prospective ex- | peditions, was aimed at obtaining | meterorological data whereas i Byrd’s expedition would be in search of geographical information. New Numbers for Planes Army training planes used by the j Indiana National Guard for train- ! ing purposes at the Indianapolis! airport Saturday were painted with j new numbers.

FENTON HITS BACK Tells Rucker Law Says Candidates Must Pay. Candidates are required by law to bear the expense of the party's State convention, Harry C. Fenton, secretary of the Republican State Central committee contended today, defending the position of the convention finance committee against the protest registered by Alvah J. Rucker, local attorney, and one of ten candidates for the Republican gubernatorial candidate. In a letter to Fenton, Rucker characterized as “unfair and illegal” the committee’s request to candidates for contributions for the State convention expenses. Rucker letter made repeated references to a demand for SSOO from gubernatorial candidates before their names could be placed in nomination, although Fenton declared the requests had mentioned no specified amount. Rucker said he learned upon inquiry from J. T.

DENY HAND IN AL’S INVASION OF CAROLINA No Formal Organization, Is Testimony to Senate Probers. By Uni led Press RALEIGH, N. C., May 21.—Ths Senate campaign investigating committee encountered resentful denials of knowledge concerning the Governor Alfred E. Smith fight to carry this State against Senator Simmons, when it called North Carolina politicians to the stand in a hearing today. John G. Dawson, Kinston, declared he was not the Smith manager here, that he never heard there was a manager, but that each of the ten congressional districts was organized for Smith, and that there was a manager for each district. James E. Caraway, Asheville, who was supposed to have important information about expenditures, said he knew nothing except what he had read in the 'newspapers. Both Dawson and Caraway made clear however, that they were for Smith, at the same time professing devotion to Simmons. “I don’t believe $5,000 has been sent in from outside this Stale,” Dawson said. Dawson described the Smith organization here as “a large volunteer army working together but not under any active leadership.” “I don’t think a single dollar has been given to any newspaper in the State to get out propaganda,” he added. 4 NEW PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH DEDICATED Sendees Are Held at $225,000 Edifice.
