HOOVER OFFERS ‘EVERY EFFORT’ TO ROOSEVLT President Concedes Defeat as Returns Show Result Beyond Doubt. BY HENRY F. MISSELWITZ I nitrd Press Staff Correspondent PALO ALTO, Cal.. Nov. 9—President Herbert Hoover in defeat, stood ready today to dedicate himself "to every possible helpful effort,’’ to make the administration ct his victorious Democratic opponent, President-Elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, a success. In conceding the election to the New York Governor, Mr. Hoover sent him the following telegram: "I congratulate you on the opportunity that has come to you to be of service to the country, and I wish for you a most successful administration. "In the common purpose of all of us I shall dedicate myself to every possible helpful effort.” (Signed*, "HERBERT HOOVER.” The chief executive remained in the seclusion of his home on the picturesque campus of Leland Stanford university, debating on his future plans. Hopes to Take Rest He had announced he hoped to take a week's rest. However, it is believed he is debating whether to take a brief vacation in California, or return at once to Washington and prepare to turn over the presidency to Mr. Roosevelt. Mr. Hoover conceded the election to Governor Roosevelt at 11:34 o'clock (central standard time; Tuesday night. The action came only after’' the returns tabulated on two large b'ackboards in the reception room of the Hoover residence showed beycncl all doubt the result. Persons close to Mr. Hoover were certain an hour before he acted that his concession would come "any minute.” Mr. Hoover spent mast of election night in seclusion in an upper room of his comfortable Moorish home. He had dinner informally with his family and a few intimates, including his two sons, Allan Hoover and Herbert Hoover Jr., and the latter's wife and their children. In Constant Communication "At home,” later, for several score of their Palo Alto neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Hoover greeted old friends whom they had not seen since they left here four years ago to take up residence in the White House. The President soon went upstairs, however, and remained in almost constant communication by wire and telephone with Republican national committee headquarters in Chicago. He had not expected defeat. He was confident until almost the end that the people would respond to his "campaign of reason.” Hence, when the result finally was recognized as final, Mr. Hoover closeted himself from the milling reception throng and wrote his telegram to Roosevelt. Only a few intimates were with him. Reads Message of Defeat Mrs. Hoover watched the returns Closely, too, and chatted frequently with her husband. But she spent most of the evening as hostess downstairs, refusing to admit defeat. There was a silence as Jack McDowell, Stanford alumni secretary, read the President's message admitting defeat. Then every one broke into applause at his gallantry. Mrs. Hoover, who had been chatting as she supervised the service of a buffet supper, quickly picked up the conversation where it had been dropped. Friends of the President said he appeared tired. As he prepared to retire about 11 p. m., he shook hands with his departing guests. A few moments later the President almost tearfully was affected when a large body of Stanford students came to the house to serenade and cheer him. The night air was balmy and a bright moon shone through the green foliage of tall trees. Stepping on to a second-floor balcony, Mr. Hoover thanked the students. His faltering words clearly showed that he was touched deeply. He withdrew and a few minutes later lights in the home wore extinguished. After giving a college yell, the students broke into smaller groups and melted into the darkness of Stanford campus.

Cold ABORTION

(with lemon juice)

Have you ever tried aborting a cold? When you abort your cold, it’s gone; the system is rid of it! The lemon juice treatment will do it. Squeeze two full-size lemons in a large glass of very hot water and drink without suggar. First, take three tablets of Pape’s cold compound an hour apart. This clears the head, dries the nasal passages, reduces any fever. The lemon juice then drives all cold symptoms right out of the system. Bedtime is best., This treatment will abort the worst cold overnight. One cold compound tablet will check a cold at any time, for several hours; .then when night comes you can get rid of it by abortion. Any druggist has Pape’s cold compound. It’s perfectly safe. Try it, and you’ll never go back to halfway remedies. Advertisement.

Election of the entire Democratic county ticket also insured a Democratic majority in the senate in the 1933 legislative session. Only seven additional senators were required for the majority, and Marion county alone elected the senators necessary to make half the senate Democratic. It appeared today from unofficial tabulations that Leo M. Gardner will lead "the other Democratic candidates for the house. Leads of approximately 10,000 votes were recorded over Republican opponents by Gardner, Edward P.
