Hy IVvrou Price (Chi el of Bureau, The Associated Piesa, Washington) The Democratic effort to win the coufldrncc of the conservative e&st has piodurtd the. first real surprised of the presidential campaign. Many politicians rubbed their eyes when they read unofficial Intimation from Albany that Governor Roodevelt would tmouer charges of radicalism by brand 1 nt some of President Hoo ver'e policies as far too radical for good Democrats. N,ow it appears that toe governor's running mate, Speaker Garner, held up by the Republicans as a frightful example of wild and woolly south- westermsm, nimseir win play an im portant role In the attempted wlu ning of the cast. He will show him self In New England and In New York, and will tiy to prove by his speeches that he 1b not at all as the Republi cans have painted him. , This same sollcitudo over the pow erful eastern bloc of votes 1b appar ent in the newly-completed list , of officers of the national committee. Every man on the roster Is an east erner, i Eyes On Garner As speaker or the nouae, at a time when congress was in session, Garner early assumed a prominence In the campaign out of keeping with the usual role of a vice presidential nom inee. His dispute with President Hoover over reliof legislation and hts stray shots afterward at "Wall Street" have been used by the opposition In an effort to frighten conservative voters everywhere. What oarner says xrom now on, therefore, Is sure to be watched with exceptional Interest, particularly in the east.

Velvets led for evening with- shirred,-transparent.- velvet: and.-cheuill-3 favored. Soled'" felt, satin, and a humbor.of feathered turbans were for formal wear. Black was the predominating color with-brown and red, shading from deep wine tone to a brilliant oiange red, next in favor. Veils are expected to find extreme favor with the new fall models. They are both flippant and theatrical. Some of those shown wore dotted with large silver spangles or white chenille. One was draped with a tricorne straight clown the nose to the shoulder. JOHN GILBERT, VIRGINIA BRUCE ARE MARRIED HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 11 (p) The film cameras were still grinding on the studio lot at 5:45 o'clock last evening. Before one of them, stood Virginia Bruce, an actress, portray ing the part of a crippled trader's daughter in a picture of African life. She was in rags and her face was stained. John Gilbert walked onto the set and Interrupted the scene. "We're going to be married at 6 o'clock," he calmly announced. "Oh, John," Miss Bruco began. "Six o'clock," Gilbert cut In. "But there's so much, to bo dono "Sill o'clock. My bungalow. ' Be there." In this manner did Gilbert, tho screen's "great lover," Bet the stage for his wedding last night to Miss Bruce. And Miss Bruce was there In 15 minutes, all washed and dressed in bridal apparel, establishing some sort of a record for speed If what the press agents said was true. The wedding ceremony was per formed shortly after fl o'clock. The brldo was given away by her father, Earl Frederick Briggs. Irving Thal berg, producer, waa best man. Mrs. Donald Ogden Stewart, wife of the writer, was matron of honor. The marriage was Gilbert's fourth, his divorce from his third wife, Ina Claire, actress, having become final last Saturday. 13-1 tie I)rcs Ami Uat Chosen liv Mra.

Up To 11 iw wove It Whatever Garner may do, the bur den of the eastern campaign still will rest on Roosevelt. It Is interesting that he has been calling Into conference, In addition to tbe pro-Smith political leaders, railway presidents and financiers, and others who might be expected to give htm conservative advice on' the eco nomic subjects he Is to discuss short ly. He has let it be known that ho does not favor publlo ownership of all public utilities; that he wants a "sound" solution of the railway prob lem, not necessarily one Injurious to the railways themselves; tnat he ob jects to certain practices of big 'busi ness, not to the buslnesq them selves, - In attacking some of the Hoover economic policies as "radical,", the governor will center on such prac tices as the farm board operations In the wheat market. The forecast of hts friends Is, In other words, that hlB utterances henceforth will carry a tone of as surance, designed to offset fears which the Republicans are seeking to con vey to, conservative voters. Centers On New York New York, as usual, will bo the spe cial storm-center of tho eastern soc tor.
