Ex-Food Administrator Declares
Only Interest Is to See Govern
ment Reflect People's Spirit.
NEW YORK, May 6. Herbert Hoo
ver, candidate for the sfcpublican
presidential nomination, in a state
ment issued here tonight, declared his
attitude toward the nomination had
not been changed by the California
primaries, and that he will not or
ganize a campaign, nor "have my
supporters raise a great campaign
fund, and then mortgage my soul in
advance in order to attain the elec
tion. "I believe that the people have a
right to elect their president without
having someone put over on them."
he said. "I have certain definite ideas
regarding economic, social and inter
est problems. I believe that these
ideas are, in many ways, in accord
with the ideas of the great majority
of American, citizens.
"I can only repeat what I have said
before," he added, "and that is that
I have never had any personal ambi
tion in this thing. My interest is only
that of any other citizen, who wants
to see the government reflect the
spirit of its people."

"Big Four" Delegate.
COLUMBUS, O., May 6. Major-General

Ohio's "big four" delegates -to the
republican national convention. Of
ficial results of the recent primary

of state show William H. Boyd, Wood
candidate, to have been elected by a
plurality of 969 -votes over Harry M.
Daugherty. Senator Warren G. Hard
ing's national campaign manager.
(General Wood thus will receive nine
of Ohio's 48 delegates, the others go
ing to Senator Harding.
The official vote gives Senator
Harding the presidential preference
eho'ce over General Wood by a plur
ality of 14.692. The vote was: Hard
ing, 123. 257; Wood, 108.565; Johnson,
16.783; Hoover, 10.467.
Governor James M. Cox, unopposed
on the democratic ticket for the pres
idential preference vote, received
85.83i votes. Bryan received 971 and
Hoover 282.
Figures Declared to Show How Xa-
tion Cannot Fulfill Treaty
Obligations.
BERLIN, May . The minimum
Imports needed by Germany for the
year ending July 81, 1921, are given
in a memorial to the reparations
commission as follows:
Food and fodder, 5,600,000 tons; fer
tilizer, 300,000; coal, 2,000,000; mineral
oils, 550,000; ores and metals, 8,500,-
000; wood, 2,000,000; raw textiles, 500,-
000; hides and leather, 150,000; miscel
laneous, 1,500,000.
This amounts to 21,500.000 tons as
compared with neatly 73,060,000 tons
In 1913.
Germany's pre-war mercantile
shipping amounted to four million
tons for this particular transport and
therefore at the same ratio for the
1921 imports about one million tons
of German shipping would be needed.
After the fulfillment of the peace
treaty Germany will be left with
only 300,000 tons, and she would be
obliged to engage 700,000 gross regis
ter foreign shipping. ThiB, the me
morial declares, Germany in her pres
ent reduced circumstances would be
unable to do.

HIGHWAY BADLY DAMAGED
Many Washouts Reported on- New
Lost Lake Road.
HOOD RIVER. Or., May " 6. (Spe
cial.) County Commissioner J. O.
Hannuin, who is just back from an
inspection of the new Lost Lake high
way, in a report to the Hood River
County Game Protective association,
whose members were sponsors for
highway work last year, says that
winter freshets have caused heavy
damage. It will cost $1500 to fill
washouts, mostly on that portion of
the road constructed - by the forest
service, says Mr. H annum.
Mr. Hannum says the forestry serv
ice, aiming to complete the road by
fall. Is hampered by lack of' men.
"Although they pay 85.50 a day and
feed the men luxuriously," says he,
"they have but two men working."

A favorable report on the so-called
Be,nham Falls reservoir, which is in
tended for storage of water for the
Deschutes Irrigation district, will be
forthcoming before June 10, accord
ing to a telegram received at the
office of the state engineer here to
day from the United States reclama
tion service at Washington.
Several -Ceeks ago a representative
of the reclamation service and Percy
Cupper, state engineer, made an in
spection of the reservoir to determine
whether It would hold water and
otherwise prove of Tlce to the
Deschutes project. Many borings
were taken and later the investiga
tion was shifted to Washington.
Rebel Agents In Washington Get
Information of Organization to
Be TTsed in Protection.
WASHINGTON, May 6. Rebel
agents here tonight announced re
ceipt of a telegram from Mexico City
saying the president of the munici
pality was organizing a civilian guard
"for the purpose of protecting the
city ln the event of its evacuation."
The information, the agents said,
was construed by them to mean that
Carranza had determined to abandon
the capital, since the organization' of
such a force probably would not be
undertaken without his consent and
certainly not without his knowledge.
CARRANZA IS FACING FAMINE
Food Shortage So Serious Labor
Requests Bakeries to Be Started.
EL PASO, Texas, May 6. With fam
ine in his capital city facing him.
President Venustiano Carranza has
sought to effect a compromise with
the revolutionary forces, according to
statements issued today by T. R. Bel
tran, commercial agent for the liberal
constitutionalist party at 1 Paso.
"The shortage in necessities has
reached a serious stage in the capi
tal," a statement said. "The discom
forts experienced by the population
are so intense that a number of labor
bodies haye addressed themselves to
Carranza asking him to take steps
to remedy, the situation by establish
ing bakeries where bread may be
bought cheap.
"The attitude of the working class
la threatening and grave disorders
are expected at any moment."
President Carranza was reported as
having held conferences with Robles
Dominguez. a leader of the opposi
tion, in an effort to reconcile the rev
olutionists. The results of the nego
tiations, however, were nnf Wnnwn
here.
"Arrests are the order of the day
in Mexico City." Senor Beltran said.
"Recently Jose Castillejo, a congres
sional deputy, was jailed on suspi
cion of favoring the party of General
Alvaro Obregon, candidate for the
presidency of the republic."
The message was signed by A.
Aim ad a, head of the revolutionists'
department of information and propa
ganda at Nogales.
In view of reports received earlier
in the day that the railroad service
from Mexico City -to Vera Cruz had
been suspended, some doubts were
expressed here as to the probability
that the Mexican chief executive had
been able to depart. It was pointed
out, however, that as a result of the
critical situation of the federal gov
ernment a special effort might have
been made to run a special train for
President -Carranza.
The text of the message relating to
Carranza received by La Patria fol
lows: "Carranza, accompanied by minis
ters, leaves today for Vera Cruz.
Some days ago he sent his son-in-law.
Candido Aguilar, ahead to Vera Cruz
with an advance guard.
Puebla, one of the largest cities of
Mexico, was reported to have been
captured by revolutionary forces un
der General Pablo Gonzales.

Don't Confound Them
You remember in "Fanny's First Play," the critic,
when pressed for a decision as to the merits of the
anonymous production, insisted that "If a good man wrote
it it's a good play, and if a bad man wrote it it's a
bad play."
So in advertising if the goods and advertising are
good, it's profitable, and if not it's not.
You may witness a stupid play without feeling that
all is lost and that the theater as an institution is no
more. Nor can the most brilliant theatrical success .
legitimatize and glorify every ham actor.
And in advertising, let us not confound the message
and the messenger.
There are more good publications to act as messengers
thair there are interesting and profitable messages for
them to carry.
Employ a good advertising agency.
