CHICAGO, Hi., J,,,,.
Chicago always has something
new to reveal even after a short
absence. Today gigantic new
buildings block several canyons
through which t lie horizon was
visible last time.
Samuel Insul's new opera
house a n d office building;
readies up toward the sky on
the south side of the river. Op
posite on the north side stands
the "merchandise mart," re
cently completed by -las. Simp
son, head of Marshall Field. It
is the biggest commercial build
ing in the world, the greatest
floor area and contains, anions
other things, the biggest restau
rant in the world.
The new I'alinolive building
near (he lake, highest tower in
Chicago, ellipses William Wrig
ley's building which formerly
dominated. On the Palmolive
building, far up toward the
clouds, a searchlight to guide
aviators, reaches 100 miles in
all directions.

Chicago is cheerful today
with bright sunshine, and a
wind from the lake with oxy
gen that would burn all t lie;
pessimism out of .Jeremiah him
self. Everybody, fat people es
pecially, should remember that
as carbon- heats us, so oxygen
burns within us destroying un
necessary tissue, lireathe fresh
nir and get thin.
If. W. Cresap, who runs one
of the biggest businesses in Chi
cago, distributing all over the
I'niled States, agrees with Her
man Black, publisher of the
Chicago American, that condi
tions arc turning upward.
Chicago's police for.jc thinks
it has captured the killer of Al
fred W. Lingle, Chicago Trib
une reporter. Hut the accused
man, Leo V. Brothers, his pho
tograph taken with his moth
er's arms around him, .says: "If
an innocent man can't beat that
rap, there's no use living."
A "rap," means you must
know, is a sentence to prison
or a trip 1o the electric chair,
which is the biggest rap.
Some news about women, al

Lucas, in Letter to Precinct
Leaders of Nation, Ap
peals for-Defense Presi
dent and Aid in Aggres
sive Campaign.
NKW YORK, Jan. 14 A
letter from Hubert. H. Lucas, ex
ecutive director of the Republican
National committee, to Republican
precinct leaders of the nation, ;
launching President Hoover's cam-
paign tor re-election in liKlJ, was
published by the Now York World
today.
In the letter, dated December
24, 11)311, Mr. Lucas appeals to
party aides to "defend the presi
dent" and join the national com
mittee in conducting an aggressive,
active, determined campaign from
this day until the polls close, in
193:!.'
"President Hoover, experienced
In ways of business and expert in
bundling big tilings, in npite of tin
worldwide depression and unem
ployment, has sustained the Amer
ican scale of wages, maintained
the American standard of living,
prevented a nationwide money
panic and kept thousands of men
and women at work in every com
munity who would otherwise have
been listed among the unemploy
ed. Democrats At Work
"The past year, however, has
disclosed a well-laid plan by the
De m oc ra t s to e m ha r rass the Re
publican administration and to
discredit the president of the
United States. And there has been
no let-up in Haskob's 'smear Hoo
ver campaign. To win in 193:! the
Democrats must destroy the Re
publican leader. By subtle In
nuendo and Insidious propaganda,
which Is being carried on by Has
kob's organization in every com
munity in the United States, they
hope to break down the people's
confidence in Herbert Hoover and
thereby elect a Democrat in 1932.
"As precinct leader you can give
great assistance to your party and
your administration if you wilt
keep your precinct organization
active throughout the year. Talk
to your neighbors. Stand up for
your party. Defend the president.
We are looking to you to protect
the Republican party in your pre
cinct. "The national committee will
carry on an aggressive, active, de
termined campaign from this day
until the polls close in 193;:. With
your assistance your advice be
fore the people, victory will be
ours."

Interest aroused by reading of
the intimately worded telegrams
