VOTE CAST BY ROOSEVELT AT VILLAGE HALL Makes Final Appeal to His Neighbors; Jokes With His Friends. BY FREDERICK A. STORM United Pres* Staff Correspondent HYDE PARK, N. Y., Nov. B. Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, expressing confidence of victory for hia party, today exchanged his role of presidential candidate for that of country squire, and joined the American millions at the national polls. The Democratic nominee made his* final appeal in an address late Monday night to Dutchess county neighbors in Poughkeepsie. He reviewed briefly his threemonths battle in an easy and almost confidential manner, pledged to carry out, if elected, the policies he* championed, and then went hothe to bed at “Krum Elbow,” his Hy#e Park estate. Roosevelt planned to go with his wife, his mother and his son Elliott to the little yellow frame town hall here to cast his ballot this afternoon. Mrs. Roosevelt Unruffled 3e was scheduled to return to the house and leave almost immediately for New York City where he will hear the nation-wide returns in Democratic campaign headquarters, Hotel Biltmore. The most unruffled member of the Roosevelt household as election day rolled around was the woman who may become the first lady of the land. Mrs. Roosevelt listened attentively to her husband’s address in Poughkeepsie, and this morning drove her own car eighty-five miles to New York, where she taught her class as usual in the Todhunter school. “One politician in the family is enough,” she observed. She was to return, however, shortly after noon. Jokes With His Friends The Governor referred to the day as ‘ a rather important one in my young life,” joked and laughed heartily with his friends and appeared confident that the result of the balloting would be a mandate from the people in his favor. Roosevelt spent election eve visiting the thousands of citizens in the towns and villages of this Hudson valley country whom he termed “my neighbors.” In his address to several hundred persons at Rhinebeck he reminded them that “ a vote for me means a vote for your old neighbor, Monty Snyder.” Snyder is his chauffeur. “I want Monty with me in Washington,” he explained. In accordance with Rooseveltian campaign custom of twenty-two years, the Governor concluded activities in Columbus hall at Poughkeepsie. There he told his audience that “I have learned much of what I know of human life and political affairs in country and in city from you—my friends.”

BANKER’S WIFE ENDSHER LIFE City Woman Kills Herself by Taking Poison. Mrs. Eola Dunbar, 44, of 525 Sutherland avenue, apartment 2, wife of Merlin M. Dunbar, vicepresident and tax officer of the Union Trust Company, committed suicide early today in a Chicago hotel by drinking poison, according to dispatches received here. Shortly before she was found in a dying condition by hotel attaches, she had telephoned her husband here by long distance, police were informed. She was suffering from an illness of- several weeks, it was said here. A note, asking that Dunbar and a sister, Mrs. H. F. Emick, 2345 Central avenue, a school teacher, be notified, was found in her room. Another sealed note bearing a 2-cent stamp, addressed to the Rev. W. W. Wyant, pastor of North M. E. church, also was found. Contents of neither were divulged by police. Authorities said Mrs. Dunbar apparently drank a quantity of bichloride of mercury about 2 a. m.

After calling her husband, Mrs. Dunbar talked with her sister by long distance, hotel managers told police. Mrs. Dunbar registered at the hotel at 10 Monday night. Inquest was to be held in the Illinois city Wednesday morning. Relatives were instructed to appear at the hearing.

FEDERAL WAR ON GANGSTERS NEARCOLLAPSE McGurn Set Free; Capone Has Good Chance to Gain Liberty. By Scrlpps-Hotcard Newspaper Alliance -WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. The federal government's war on gangsters in Chicago and elsewhere appears to be collapsing. Close upon President Herbert Hoover’s expression of “humiliation” over the necessity of using the income tax law penalties to put away gangsters, comes a supreme court decision freeing Jack Gebardi, Capone henchman known also as Machine Gun Jack McGurn, from a prison sentence imposed for alleged conspiracy to violate the Mann act. Next week before a federal court in Atlanta, A1 Capone through his lawyers will seek, apparently with good chance of success, to overturn his conviction and extended sentence for violation of the income tax laws. Capone contends that a threeyear statue of limitations applies to the evasions charged against him. The government argues that a sixyear statute applies. Hoover Is Humiliated The supreme court has ruled since Capone was taken to prison that a three-year limit applied to another gangster, who was similarly prosecuted. Now Capone, whose conviction was based on charges of evasions older than three years, has brought habeas corpus proceedings for freedom, on the new precedent. Hoover in his speech at Madison Saturday, emphasizing the local responsibility for suppression of crime and complimenting, the La Follette state on its record, said: “I think you are all. conscious of the humiliation that comes to our countrymen when the federal government must deliberately use the violation of the income tax laws to collect gains on crime in order to curb these criminals, who are uncontrolled, unprosecuted and unconvicted by the state and municipalities.” Hoover suggested also that Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt “might have contributed” to a solution of this problem during his last three years as chief executive of New York state. Ruling in McGurn Case The supreme court’s ruling in the McGurn case amounts to a decision that the drastic federal conspiracy laws can not be invoked in so-called white slave cases, if no pecuniary motives can be proved. The lower court sentenced Gebardi to two years in federal prison, and his blond, alleged co-conspir-ator, Louise Rolph (now his wife), to four months in jail. He has lived with the woman three years, although married to another woman, when he made a trip to Miami with her. % Later, before the trial, he obtained a divorce and married Miss Rolph. The court held that her “mere agreement” to make the trip with him' did not constitute conspiracy to violate the Mann act. Since the woman could not be involved in conspiracy, Gebardi had no one with whom to conspire, the court held.
