At Heft of Vote
In California
New York. May B. Herbert Hoover
Issut d a statement here today in which
he expressed surprise that 'under the
"circumstances so large a vote should
liave been cast in California for the
delegates favoring my nomination."
"For my friends, in entering my
name, introduced no personal Issue
but asked an opportunity to register a
protest at Senator Johnson's extreme
opposition to any league to prevent
warand reduce armaments." said the
statement. "With a group of amateur
-4'lubs only a month old, they were of
rour.se handicapped in opposing the
regular party organization but the real
.'situation is that the people of Call
fornia have been much torn between
loyalty and friendship to their senator
tor his able rescue of the state during
his governorship from vicious corpora
tion control .and hi too narrow virion
on our international necessities. The
fact that In these circumstances more
than a third of the ' party protested
against this latter view should
strengthen the support of the repub
lican majority In the senate."

Angeles had not yet been solved by the.
police today.
The police said the motive of the
crime remained unknown. A theory
advanced yesterday that the killing
was done by an associate of the un
identified bandit who was killed by a
siecial officer in the same section a
week ago. the slayer mistaking Mr.
Robbins for that watchman, but this
was not established.
Mr. Robbins was first beaten and
then choken by using noose. The
rope forming the latter was of peculiar
texture.' the police said, and none like
it was on sale In Los Angeles. They
said this might prove the only cm u
real value.

. The Shirt "She" Will Approve
You are interested in buying a good-looking shirt, of course, something with snap
and style.
But to meet "her" approval a shirt must stand the quality test. She remembers
that that shirt will have to go into the tub regularly-she has ideas about seams und
buttonholes and workmanship that a man never thinks about.
There are shirts here to meet those quality requirements as well as the. test of
good looks. We'd like to show them to both of you we know you'll enjoy looking .at these
garments. .
