HOOVER, SORE OF WEST, PLANS EASTERN DRIYE Makes Preparation to Fight for Votes of States Along Atlantic. BY RAY TUCKER PALO ALTO, Cal., July 27. Herbert Hoover will devote most of his personal campaigning to the northeastern States in view of reports and observation which convince him that the middle and far West will not budge from the Republican column. The coastal and mountain States will roll up larger majorities than any Republican presidential candidate has received in years, according to assurances given him since he arrived home. The farm revolt in the corn belt may cut down G. O. P. majorities, but none of the agricultural States will vote for Smith, leaders in that district told him. The transcontinental trip and sojourn here left Hoover in no doubt of his ability to sweep almost all the States west of the Mississippi. The .only ones held doubtful are Missouri, possibly the Dakotas, and one or two of small southwestern border States. Tammany Issue Aids G. O. P. But reports lead Hoover to feel he will carry the more important doubtful States like Kentucky, Tennessee and Oklahoma. The Tammany issue will swing many Democratic votes to him in most of the western and border States, Hoover has been told. This question, besides involving the New York organization’s record, concerns itself with the issue of prohibition. There probably never was a candidate more sure of a triump than Hoover. So he will leave the West; behind him for good when he returns to Washington the last of this month, voting by mail in the California election. He probably will deliver radio addresses in Chicago and Denver. Center Battle in East The month before election day probably will find Hoover battling hard in New England and Atlantic seaboard States. It is probable he will make two addresses in New England, one in New York, one in New Jersey and one in either Maryland or Delaware. He may also attend political rallies so that the leaders and voters may get a look at him. Some of the party’s most eloquent spellbinders will be sent into the East, including Vice President Dawes and Senator Johnson, if they are needed. The three States Hoover has been told he can carry, provided a real fight is waged are Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York. URGES MORE ALCOHOL Use for Sugar Cane Suggested to Increase World Competition. El / United Press HAVANA, Cuba, July 27.—Greater production of sugar cane, to be used for the manufacture of alcohol, and not for refining into sugar, is urged by Dr. Henry ArnsteJn, a noted chemist of Philadelphia, Pa., who believes Cuba could overcome increasing competition in the sugar market by this means.

This is not, as might be supposed, a record of the delirium of a rabid office worker these palpitatingly tepid afternoons. It’s just a little group of photographs we took last winter and saved in the hope they’d be of further use. Clip out the pictures, paste them in your hat and when your collar begins to get dropsy take off your hat and look hard at these. You’ll think you’re in Helsingfors or some place and enjoy a delicious chill.

HUNTERS TO GO INTOFARNORTH Museum Expedition Will Explore Yukon. By Times Special NEW YORK CITY, July 27. Travelling by Canadian National Raliway across Canada to Prince Rupert, by boat to Skagway, Alaska, by the White Pass and Yukon Railway to White Horse, by auto to Bear Creek, and finally 350 miles by pack horse into the wilds of the Donjek, Generk and White River sections of the Yukon, a big game hunting expedition, under the auspices of the Brooklyn Museum, and including in its numbers Harry B. Hawkins, president of the Flatbush Savings Bank, leaves the East on Aug. 2 on a seventy-day journey. With Hawkins will be Dr. L. Howard Moss of Richmond Hill, Dr. Alfred H. Smith of Springfield, L. 1., and H. R. Bliss of Atlantic City. Not only do the hunters intend to bring back fine specimens of grizzly bear, moose, goat, caribou and wolf, but they purpose “shooting” these big game animals by motion picture camera in their natural environment. Hawkins and Doctors Moss and Smith have had many hunting experiences in the Candian Rookies.

Wahlstrom’s survey revealed that 416 carriers have received medical treatment for dog bites in the last eight years, compared to two automobile injuries to postmen during the same period.

SALE OF FALL RANCH MAY AID DEFENSE CASE Price Will Throw Light on Claim Sinclair Paid $233,000 for Share. By RUTH FINNEY WASHINGTON, July 27.—Reported sale of A. B. Fall’s famous Three Rivers ranch may have an important bearing on the trial of conspiracy charges still pending against the former Secretary of the Interior. During the trial of Harry F. Sinclair, with whom Fall was accused of having conspired, almost the entire defense centered about the claim that Liberty bonds given by Sinclair to Fall had purchased a one-third interest in the Three Rivers property. The bonds totaled $233,000. M. T. Everhart, Fall’s son-in-law, testified that the total value of all the ranch properties involved was about $700,000. Value Set at $225,000 Government prosecutors were frankly incredulous of this valuation. Tax records of the State of New Mexico introduced as evidence before the Senate Public Lands Committee showed that in 1923, the year after it is claimed Fall sold a third of his property to Sinclair, Fall’s ranch property was assessed at a total value, including improvements and stock, of $26,418. The property of Tres Ritos Cattle and Land Company was assessed the same year at $24,924. This totals $51,442, and if the property was assessed at 5 per cent of its actual value, the usual figure, the two properties were worth about SIOO,OOO. The year before Fall had purchased the Harris ranch and livestock, adjoining his original property, with money furnished by Edward L. Doheny, for $125,000. The record does not show whether this was included in the property assesssed to Fall, but even if it were hot, it would bring the total of his new Mexican holdings up to approximately $225,000. Sale Would Bolster Defense There is also in the record of the public lands committee a let-

ter writen to it by Fall in 1923, in which he says the capital stock of the Tres Ritos Company was SIO,OOO, and the total value of all his prop; erties about $600,000. This was the same letter in which he said he had goten the Doheny cash from Edward B. McLean, and said he had never received any money either from Doheny or Sinclair. If Fall sells his property now for SBOO,OOO, as reports indicate, such a sale on record pvoai/.y would aid materially establishment of his defense claim that $233,000 was not too much for Sinclair to pay for a third interest in the ranch. FLOWER PLOTS DMNDLE High Costs Result in Smaller But More Artistic Gardens. NEW YORK, July 27.—The steep climb of post-war wages and the mounting costs of things in general were credited for the present-day tendency toward smaller but more artiste flower gardens, in a lecture here by Mrs. Nathaniel Lord Britton of the New York Botanical Garden. “High wages have forced economy on many garden lovers, and plants that need less care are being grown,” Mrs. Britton said. “Shrubs hardy parennial borders, rock ■ gardens, wild gardens, miniature Japanese and cactus gardens are now being exhibited instead of many of the old monstrosities that required as much care and skill as bringing up a baby.” Excursion v to Cincinnati Hound 3*25 Trip To Shelbyville ..$ .75 “ Greensburg.. 1.25 “ Batesville ... 1.50 Sunday, July 29 Special train of all-steel equipment will leave Indianapolis 7:00 a. m.
