HOOVER-AL CAMPAIGN COST HIGHEST IN U. S HISTORY

NATION SPENDS 12 MILLIONS IN VOTE FIGHT Aggregate Collections of Two Parties Nearly $9,000,000. DEMOCRATS BORROW Expenditures of Various Societies Boost Total to High Sum. BY HERBERT LITTLE United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.—The Hoover-Smith campaign was listed today as apparently a $12,000,000 contest, the most expensive in American history. Reports of the Democratic and Republican national committee to the clerk Os the house and the house campaign funds committee showed aggregate contributions and collections of nearly $9,000,000. And the money on Nov. 1, was all spent except for balances of a few thousand dollars each. In addition, the separate expenditures of state and local organizations, the Anti-Saloon League, the association against the prohibition amendment, the Cannon Anti-Smith Movement, and the national committees* expenses for the final week of the campaign are expected to bring the total to $12,000,000 or more. Democrats Borrow Million Both parties have surpassed their early-campaign estimates. The Republican committee has received $4,911,744 in contributions and spent $4,774,361. The Democratic committee has borrowed $1,000,000 and collected approximately $3,000,000 in contributions. Chairman Raskob of the Democratic committee spent more than one million dollars in the last week of October, most of it going so state Committees. In contrast, the Republican disbursements to state committees were smaller for the week, and some state organizations made contributions to the central- fund. On Nov. 1, with most of the campaign activities closing, the Republican committee’s balance was $137,838, and the Democratic balance $92,094. Additional reports will be filed after the election. Will G. Irwin of Columbus, Ind., had contributed SSOO to the Indiana Anti-Saloon League for use in the present campaign, it was shown today by reports filed with the! clerk of the house. Other contributors were E. H. Evans of Indianapolis and J.. L. Inglehart of Evansville, each SIOO. The league has raised $2,339 in Indiana since Sept. 1, out of a total contribution of $1,551 toward the Varney national prohibition ticket. Mrs. Bertha B; Haynes of Kokomo has given SIOO. G. W.

MERCURY TO DROP Near Freezng Predicted for Tonight. The temperature will drop to near freezing tonight, but it will not be cold enough' to make it necessary for motorists to fill their radiators with alcohol and other anti-freezing materials, according to J. H. Armington, United States weather bureau chief. The low temperature tonight will be from 33 to 35, he said. Sunday will be fair with the mercury mounting to about 40.

Pitcher Is Centuries Old

One of the prized possessions, perhaps the most prized, of Edward B ell i v e a u, 816 Chadwick street, is a pitcher made in Spain in the sixteenth century. The pitcher, of earthenware, and blue on the outside, has been in his family for generations. The pitcher was sord in and passed into the hands of French imm i g rants to Nova Scotia. An ancestor of Belliveau named Mrs. Le B? me, first brought it into the possession of his family and it passed from her to his grandmother and then to his mother. Belliveau tained it in 1911. Born in Nova Scotia in 1875, Belliveau has led an adventurous life, which included ten years as a sailor. He was shipwrecked once and nearly lost his life in a destructive storm off Cape Hatteras. Since 1905 he has lived here, working as a mechanic. Several years ago he left the pitcher in the care of the John Herron Art Institute while he made an extended visit to the scenes of his childhood in Nova Scotia.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

LOCAL WOMAN PARTY TO LONG SUIT NOW OVER Mrs. Emmanuel Crum and Others in Case Make . Compromise. Bp Times Special EVANSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 3. After a legal battle waged during the last sixteen years, a controversy over custody of Mary Louise Montgomery, now grown, has been settled out of court. The case during its long existence was carried to the Indiana supreme court, where the Vanderburgh probate court’s decision was reversed and the case sent back here for trial.’ The contro-ersy started in 1921 when T. Wilbur Montgomery, Posey county, sought a divorce from Mrs. Ethel Montgomery now the wife of Emmanuel Crum, Indianapolis. She filed a cross-complaint and won a divorce. The court ruled that Mary Louise, the couple’s daughter, who at the time was 6 years old, should be in the custody of Montgomery’s parents at stated intervals. A few months later Montgomery was arrested on charges by his divorced wife that he kidnaped the child and took her to Cuba. He was sentenced to prison on the charge, but became a fugitive from justice when permitted to attend the funeral of a relative on parole. He was later re-arrested, committed to prison and then pardoned. Mrs. Montgomery won a $25,000 verdict in a suit for SIOO,OOO for alienation of affections of Montgomery, filed against his parents and a brother and sister. This was the case remanded here by the supreme court for retrial. The probate court docket here now shows an entry that a compromise has been effected, ending the litigation.

Bp Times Special ANGOLA, Ind., Nov. 3.—‘‘Republican talk of prosperity is like the housecleaning they talk about in Indiana,” Eari Crawford, former state highway commissioner, told Fayette county Democrats here Friday night. “They told us four years ago they had cleaned house,” he continued. “Well, they sent the wrong Governor to the penitentiary. “How do you explain the lost amendments in the last legislature? How about the illegal teachers’ licenses issued by the state superintendent of public instruction? How about the certificates of title issued by the secretary of state’s office for all those stolen automobiles In Indianapolis ? How about George Coffin's promotion from county to district chairman? “If you are satisfied with that kind of housecleaning, you just want a little drycleaning done, that’s all. Elect Frank C.

Clarence Saunders Refused to Stay Down; Back in Millionaires ’ Class

Piggly Woggly Founder Is Staging Spectacular Comeback. By XEA Service MEMPHIS, Nov. 2.—“ Never let the world keep you down. There is success for every man who refuses to recognize defeat”— With these words Clarence Sanders, chain store magnate, sums up his experiences in the last few years, during which time he made a fortune, lost it and then staged a comeback to make a second fortune more spectacularly than the first one. Just a minute, though, Saunders doesn’t like that word "come-back.” He admits he lost a fortune, went through bankruptcy and now has a bus in ess s that he wouldn't sell for $5,000,000 cash—but he doesn’t like the "come-back” part. “I Was Never Down” “It is true I lost money,” he says, “but the money wasn't me. I never was down. I didn’t feel detached from the proper value of things.” The story of Saunders’ rise, fall and rise again is one of the most spectacular in American financial history, full as that history is of precisely that sort of thing. Five years ago Saunders bucked Wall street In the famous Piggly Wiggly corner. Today he could sell his holdings in the Clarence Saunders Corporation for much more than he lost in that fight. A financial deal which he made on a recent trip to the east has placed him at the head of anew company with a combined wealth of $200,000,000 to back him in a, new national chain of grocery stores and meat markets. New Company Formed Anew company has been formed to take over the small chain already established by Saui.ders. It is backed by financial interests in Chicago, New York, Boston and Detroit. Already it has been announced that the Clarence Saunders Stores, Inc , will start in with a nucleus- of 5 2 stores in 15 cities, expanding in six months to a nation-wide chain of 150 stores. And this will be but the first unit. Saunders resigned from the presidency of Piggly Wiggly, which he founded, after Wall street wrecked him. To wipe out his losses he had to give up the “pink palace." the palatial dream home he was building on the outskirts of Memphis. For. nearly a year the mansion, three-quarters completed, remained tied up in the courts; then it wuj sold under the hammer. Then He Comes Back Then Saunders got busy. He established anew string of stores. They prospered; and, as he said, critics began to turn to friends when they saw how prontable the venture was becoming. Now Saunders is reaching the crest again. The "pink palace" today belongs to the city of Memphis as a museum of natural arts and history. The city also owns thirty-nine acres of ground surrounding it as a park, including a ten-acre lake which Saunders had constructed. DE PAUW OFFICIAL LAST MEMBER OF ’66 CLASS Treasurer Salem B.

4,379 IS PLANE TOTAUN U. S. Numbers Up to 10,000 Have Been Issued. Bp Times Special WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.—Although the aeronautics branch of the department of commerce has issued its 10 000th airplane number, there are far from that many airplanes licensed today, i is said by officials. Actual number of licensed planes is 2.524 while 1,855 others have been reported to the government, but are not licensed. Some additional planes probably are in existence in the United States, but not In sufficient numbers to make a total of 10,000, it is said. The government total of planes is 4,379 while the number of licensed pilots is 3,792. The first license issued by the aeronautics branch was C-26 on Oct. 26. 1927. Because numbering beyond 999 would require too many figures on the plane and thus incumber the wings, anew system of numbering is being used, adding the capital E to each number. The numbers IE to 25E are reserved by the Department of Commerce for its planes. Number 27E has been issued to Schlee and Brock, round-the-world fliers. Writer for Billie Agnes Christine Johnston is doing the adaptation for “The Man and the foment,” Billie Dove's next story for First National. It is from the Elinor Glyn story, and will be directed by George Fitzmaurice.
