Hoover Secretary Herbert Hoover will, fle- Ivor his notification speech from Leland Stanford university at Galo Alfctj, Cal., Saturday, August II,- and it w ill be timed that the entire country can hear it over- the .radio. To do this, however, and because o f the difference in time between the Pacific and Atlantic poasts Mr. Hoover will have to begin his speech at 6 o’clock in the afternoon. A|t first glance this seems to be an odd hour to make a campaign speech but inas­ much as this is on Saturday afternoon daytime toilers in San Francisco and vicinity will be free to attend. More important than that 5 o'clock Pacific time is 6 o'clock mountain time, 7 o'clock central standard and 8 o’clock in the evening centra! daylight time as prevails in Chicago and other cities. It wifi also fee 8 F ; M. eastern standard time in Washington and 9 o’clock eastern daylight time'in Vfew York and Boston. - * - ' ' Thus the middle western and eastern Where Mr*, Hoover's1man* he*will ltave the hardest standpoin^^ttoitt the fa r Wi which 1m is almost certain to carry anyway* ; More radio canniness is Shown in Setting the speech on Saturday, night inasmuch as there are fewer advertis­ ing hours, less contracted .time bn the air, that evening than any other' in the week. Inasmuch as tile adver­ tisers pay'for the broadcasting o f their hours they must be consulted with regard to giving them up. , However, Since there are compara­ tively few o f them on that night con­ siderably less shifting will be required to .give Mr. Hoover the right o f way from coast to const and border to bor­ der .thus insuring him an enormous hookup. Ohio’ s livestock Show, Greatest In The World Acknowledged to hp as fine aS any in the country, and in some depart­ ments, the finest in the world, the livestock show which is the center o f such keen interest at every Ohio State Fair has been built up during the administration o f the present direc­ tor o f Agriculture, Charles V. Truax. Livestock men. have come to value blue ribbons won at this Fair because they realize that the award* are Won in competition against•» great num­ ber o f the country’s best animals. So great has its prestige grown that whenever there is a conflict in dates it is always to Ohio* that the finest exhibits are sent. ' -To speak o f the “ million dollar live­ stock parade” is no empty boast, The animals that go in dignified proces­ sion about the. coliseum every even­ ing as a prelude to the Night Horse Show, and appear on the race track Friday a t noOn, are ftp doubt worth more than that figure.* I f one con­ siders the stock not included in that parade, the valuable sheep, pwine, goats, and puoltry, a more accurate valuation would be $8,090,000.. The nasty conditions that surround the. O* S. & S. O. Home have again 'been- airad to the public* This time following an investigation by the ’Wei fare Committee o f the American Legion comes a demand fo r the re­ signation o f the members o f the Home Board. They are; Marcqa Limb, .Wooster; Ralph Carroll, Cleveland; W. T, Amos, Sidney; Bell <3, Allen, Wash' ington; C, H., and Miss E, Jane Bailey, Wapskonetta- It is said that the four male members o f the board have agreed to' resign but Miss Bailey re ­ fuses* ' ■ The situation is again up to Governor Donahey, who has so- fre­ quently .stated that never once during feia governorship has he been called upon to demand the resignation o f any state board members. The Home has been in the limelight'for several years and first one scandal after another has followed* , Business management o f the insti­ tution could be no worse from all re­ ports*.The educational advantages are rated low and not up to a decent Standard. The Legion complains that hygienic, conditions, are a disgrace. It is advited that the educational depart­ ment be closed and the Home children placed- in the Xenia City schools/ Supt. J. Norman King, who has served but six weeks, has resigned following trouble *between he and Supt. C* E , Burckel, head o f the Home schools. King’s resignation was de­ manded b y tiie*Home Board and a t the. same meeting Lieut. Col, Charles "V. Burton, Cleveland, was elected to fee- coma superintendent o f the Home on August 4th. Supervision about the Home' has beeh so, lax of. recent years that the older inmates g o and come as they please in many. Instances! The social statu* .between boys and girls is re­ ported beyond printed description. More than once during the past few years certain cases bpve reached the courts, yet. neither the board or Governor Pdftahey interested them­ selves to improve conditions,. Stories fold relative to the letting o f contracts in. connection with feuild- e best interest* o f the state are not in safe hands and that' such business does not go through the usual methods as would be required in private affairs. The story has been afloat fo r some time that one manufacturing concern bid on a certain article bnt did not get the order. Another party received the order on a bid $300 higher and in return placed the order with the man­ ufacturer that was the original low bidder. It baa also been reported that a bidder for certain equipment'was ap­ proached;"to donate $150 toward a cer­ tain civic improvement. The bidder Was more er less suspicious and upon making an investigation found that no such civic improvement in the town mentioned was underway.

FARM APPEAISUP SATURDAY '' The Raymond 8. Bull farm on the Columbus pike was appraised under Court orders last Saturday at $120 an acre. The appraiser* were W. M. Arthur, Clayton McMillan and W . L. Clemens, With the primary election hut twelve days* away the pot baa passed, the simmering stage and now show* signs o f "boiling over. The scandal workers are very busy passing out dope oyer the county much after the fashion used in the April primary ift an attempt to defeat Herbert Hoover. There is much discussion between’ the friends o f the various candidates for the nomination on the Republican ticket fo r governor. Cong, James G, Begg, Myers, Y, Cooper and Attorney General Edward Turner are the only outstanding candidates on the Re­ publican side. On the Democratic ticket Cong! Davey and Lieutenant Governor Bloom are fighting fo r first place. - . Two weeks ago the Anti-Saloon, League politicians* sought to connect with' Cooper’s (millionaire) bank an -’ Count and give him an endorsement over the other three. Trouble broke - in the League ranks and that; organ­ ization is split,. This week the States W. C, T. U, endorse ’Begg, Cooper and . Shanley. , No other qualifications is taken "into consideration other than ihe wet and dry issue. Any candidate can be a utility tool to permit the'' public to be robbed-' I t ’ was on this issue that Copper met defeat two years ago, He Was listed dry but con­ nected with ‘ the utility.; interests. Turner is the only candidate that ad- • vocates a repeal o f the Fence law in the interest ofs the public; Shanley is* , unknown over the state and natr; con­ sidered-in tfee first three prospects!’ In the list fo r lieutenant' goyemor „ there are a "host o f candidates but £nhn Brown o f Champaign county , |eems to be the leading candidate, He . is the author o f the gasoline, ta x law.

Let the utility crowd o f boodlers control the - office o f the attorney general and it is golhg to be a sorry day fo r the, con- ‘ sqmere., The-politicians fight among goyamt>r.'4t!P fact that be has the patronage to hand out, Little or no interest is given * the court nominees, which can undo by decisions all that the legislature ’ ,• can construct. ‘ , ■ « * *' jr ~ ~ -+ ^ , lin the county we find the women politicians really more active than the men. There is a reason c f course fpr this, most o f them are being paid for their Services, and they use church organizations and different groups' to spread their propaganda, The latest from this angle is the passing in certain parts o f the county, of, marked ballots. Certain o f the feminine workers have made tip a list and charge each candidate $5 to have , his name marked on the preferred list, , When you see the list you can, count for yourself just howmuch the women have pulled down in the drag. Candi­ dates are not forced to contribute but they well know i f they do not shake down the $5 they will go on the black­ list, You can judge fo r yourself about wliat plan* politics is operated upon in Greens county. * * * One o f the marked ballots was pre­ sented to Us Wednesday and it was amusing to go.over the list. We wish to sight two instances. Sheriff Ohmer Tate is announced for his second term. Below his name is written the name o f John B&ughan with an (x ) before it. Baughan was badly defeated by Tate two years ago and was the Gowdy* Marshall candidate, Further down oft the ballot Was( written the name o f Dr, Ungard with an (x ) showing the Dr. to be preferred to Coroner Chamb­ liss, Who is out fo r his second term. * It so happens that Dr. Ungard is also the regular candidate on th e .Demo­ cratic ticket for coroner. Friends o f Sheriff Tate, and there is no official 1ft Gteenfe county held in higher respect, will resent such acts, and no doubt - vote accordingly and resent th* tactics o f the Marshali-Gowdy gang in. using women to pass such marked ballots over the county* ■■* '* * -■ ■ . Reports Indicate that a political sheet is ter appear juist before the election and Xenia merchant* are be­ ing solicited fo r advertising to help' pay the cost. Tbe campaign sfeeet is to fee issued ih behalf o f the Gowdy- ^ Marshall candidates. Look eat fo r I t . f It will be the usual political handbill issued in the behalf o f candidates and not fo r the political enlightenment o f the voters. Hand bill* have been pass­ ed before at election timc.n, much to the sorrow o f those that had an inter­ est in such methods.* * » :■!# : Editor Harry Rice, o f the Herald* Xenia, Democratic candidate fo r Uon- fa 'th* Seventh District, proposes ■) v* (Continued on page 2) « * a* ‘ "* * •V M, J. % ■ </ .'•■te m i*
