Careworn but Fit, Hoover Faces Campaign Doctor Finds His Health Improved In Recent Months iBYWETHCHISM . NEW YORK, July 11 (AP) Mrl. Charlss A. Sabln, national chairman or the vomen'a organisation for na tional prohibition reform, could "find no comfort" today In the petition of Mra. August Belmont and 01 other member, dlaeentlng from the executive committee's resolution urg ing support of Franklin - R, Roose velt for president. 1 Mrs. Bablu added that comfort probably could be found In-it by the women's OhriJtlan Tamperanoe Union, the Anti-Saloon league, the Methodist Board of Prohibition, Tem perance and Publlo Morals, and Bishop Cannon, The 02 dissenting women Issued a statement yesterday In which they said that "to make the attitude of trie candidate toward oontroi of the liquor t;ifIto the sole test of his witness for the preeldency would be negation of our responsibilities as citizens." By Herbert Plummer. WASHINGTON. fly-Two months before the Republican national con vention. Senator Copeland, self-appointed gusrdlsn of the health of Presidents, made what be termed his semi-annual diagnosis of the condi tion of Herbert Hoover. "I find," reported the doctor, "that President Hoover Is In good condi tion for the coming campaign. He Is In better shape than he was six months ago." It hardly can be denied, however, that the President begins his cam paign for re-election a vastly differ ent man physically thsn he was four years ago. Perhaps there Is no better way of determining this change than to compare photographs of him ss Nom inee Hoover In 1038 and as President Hoover In 1933. Today there. are lines etched deep ly In his face. His hair Is thinning and showing white at the temples. His physique, while neither portly nor spare, Is leas bulky than It was lour years ago. When he became President he was smiling almost constantly. Today his expression has changed. There Is less smiling, more grlmneas arid determination on his countenance, His choice of the fishing camp on the Rapldan now seems almost pro phetic. For only there has he found opportunity for a few fleeting mo- menu from the cares of the White House. His personal habits have changed little since 1828. H still arises be tween 0 and 0 a. m. First comes a workout with his "medicine ball csblnet." Then It's back to the White House for orange Juice, coffee and the reading of a naif dozen-papers. After breakfast proper and one of his long clgara at 8, he goes to the executive offices. At luncheon and dinner he nearly always has guests lor he likes to have people around After the day's work. If It Isn't too late, the President takes a nap, followed by dinner at 8. Then It's Into bed by 11 a regular thing. As a result of his persistent exer cise and rigid restraints on his diet, President Hoover faces the oampalgn for re-election probably as good a man physically, If a little more care worn, than the smiling, bulky man who wss elected President In 1928. JUDGE ORDERS TRIAL In the long-standing suit of Pearl and L. M. Wilson against the Rogue River company for 20,000 alleged damages, Judge II. D. Norton has handed down a decision, directing that the Issues Involved come to trial. The aotlon hinges around purchase of land by the Wilsons In this county, and the reservation In the bill of sale of the oil, coal and mineral rights. The action has been pending since 1928. 111 vl 1 ti I 1 X j i ' ) ' t:-J ".

The Hoover of 1932 Is thinner than the Hoover of 1928, and a grim, determined look has replaced his grin. In the center he Is shown as he waged his campaign In 1928. SAFETY RAZOR LOS ANGELES, July ll (AP) King O. Gillette, who amassed a for tune by Inventing a razor blade clwap enough to allow It to be dis carded once It became dull, -died with his greatest ambition a plan to Incorporate the' world as a busi ness corporation as a cure for eco nomic Ills unrealized. The 77-year-old inventor, In fall ing health for the past two years. died Saturday night at his Calabasas ranch home, but almost to the end of his life he had maintained an active Interest In social problems. Mr. Gillette first outlined hie "world corporation" In 1010, a plan to Incorporate the world as a busi ness concern with the late Theodore Roosevelt as president at a salary of $360,000 annually. The purpose of the corporation would be to do away with political government, war, poverty and waste resulting from in dividual competition. GOODRICH, TIRE YORK, Me., July 11 (AP) Charles O.

However, the evangelist took note of the reported revolt among her followers by Issuing brief statement, which read: To Atand by Dave. e "I certainly am going to stand by my husband." The fact that all was not harmony In the Angelus Temple came to light during the concluding days of the trial of Miss St. Pierre's suit when on leaving the courthouse, she was presented with large baskets of flow ers by members of Mrs. Hutton's con gregation. "We are from Angelus Temple, M!ss St. Pierre, and we give these flowers to you with our best wishes because we oeueve your story and do not be lleve Dave's," a member of the group told Miss St. Pierre In presenting the flowers. Hutton said today that he has heard talk against him In the tem ple for some time. Hutton Defiant. "I know there Is such talk, but I defy them to put me out," he said "After all, Almee Is boss down there. She Is president and pastor and tnat s something. 1 Hutton, following the Jury's ver dict In favor of the nurse Saturdav evening, told his attorneys he wanted them to appeal the case.

Two dollars a hundred more for hogs means to many farmers the dif ference between reasonable prosperity with payment of mortgage and losing the farm. Fancy heavy steers are selling at nine dollars a hundred, and more Important, the farmer feeding corn to hogs at present prices, gets forty to fifty cents a bushel for com that he has been selling as grain for eighteen to twenty-four cents. Always keep good, sound tires on your front wheels. If you value your life. Also, never drive at a speed that means loss of control, in case of a blow-out. Also, keep a firm hold on your steering wheel, at all times, remem bering that even the best tire may go, unexpectedly. Major E. M. Skinner was driving near Warrentown, Vs.; with a friend, a front tire blew out, the car left the road, hit a tree. Both men were killed. Had the car been going only thirty five to forty-five miles an hour, which Is fast enough, the car In all probability would not have left the road. Fast driving means betting your life on the quality of a tire. Blow-outs are rare, now, with tires marvellously Improved and mileage Increased, but why bet your life on anything. Professor Georges Claude, Inventor of the Neon light, which you see In signs, everywhere, announces an Im portant new discovery. He believes that his new "cold" light, produced by running an elec tric current through a tube filled with a mixture of rare gases, will greatly reduce the cost of house lighting. fighting companies, also General Electrlo and Westlnghouse, will wel come the Invention. Whatever makes a product cheaper increases the pros perity of the producer, in the long ran. The government supplies money to send home by rail, veterans gathered In Washington, and many of them, wisely, are accepting transportation and going home. There is no hope whatever of any bonus legislation this year, and vet erans that feel they have been badly treated should return to their homes, to tell their neighbors what they have seen and learned about the gratitude of the world's "richest country." The so-called Vulcide of Smith Reynolds, twenty-year-old youth worth twenty millions may develop Into a celebrated case. Since he was supposed to have shot himself , to death, as he lay on a couch In the house of a friend, finger prints and blood stains have been found on the door of a bath room, adjoining the room In which the body was found. Even In death twenty millions may exert influence, and newspaper re porters were excluded from the offi cial Investigation, which diminishes the probability of the truth being revealed.
