dispatch to inn EMjniinn. Columbus, Ohio, October 10 "The present mess and muddle in Washington extends as much to conservation as it does to other matters under the New Deal," Governor Alf M. Landon declared here tonight in a conservation speech before a dinner arranged by the Ohio Republican Committee. More than 500 persons attended the dinner in honor of Governor Landon, at the Deshler-Wallick Hotel here tonight, and more than 1,000 others waiting for a public reception that followed the dinner, heard his address in an adjoining lobby. Governor Landon pledged himself to the conservation creed of Theo dore Roosevelt, which, it was ex plained, was not only for the con servation of wild life, but of all natural resources in America.

De claring that because of his love for the great outdoois he had a per sonal as well as a public interest in conservation, Governor Landon said Federal Money Is Spent By His Opponents In Campaign, Kansas Governor Charges Praise For City Charter. BY JOSEPH GARRETSON, JR. Thousands of Cincinnatians upward of 20,000 of them welcomed Governor Aif M. Landon to the Queen City yesterday with noisy, enthusiastic acclaim. The Republican presidential nominee 3miled and waved his appreciation, first at the Union Terminal, again at breakfast at the Hotel Gibson, and last from the rear plat form of his special train at Winton Place station.

The fighting Kansas Governor found time, too in three brief addresses for many thrusts at the New Deal, for confident predictions of success at the polls, and for a few nice words about Cincinnati and Ohio. UNDAUNTED BY CLOUDS. Neither leaden skies nor the early hour Landon's train arrived at 7:30 o'clock appeared to have affected the size of the" crowd. On the roof garden of the Hotel Gibson 1,045 persons sat down to breakfast with their distinguished guest. Several hundred for whom there were no seats, crowded the foyer.

Hundreds jammed the lobby and packed Walnut Street in front of the hotel. At Winton Place Police Chief Eugene T. Weatherly and Assistant Chief William C. Adams were in agreement in estimating the crowd at 20,000. At the Terminal Landon spoke briefly in response to Mayor Russell Wilson's welcome.

He complimented the city on its municipal government and paid tribute to Charles P. Taft. At the hotel, in his longest address, he decried the opposition of "the most powerful propaganda machine ever assembled on American soil." But, "because a secret ballot still remains," he predicted that "the instinctive resentment of an aroused electorate means certain victory in November." At Winton Place he laid the ghost of prohibition "the great granddaddy of all the 'red herrings in the present campaign" by pro-Continued On Page 27, Column 1.

The cause of the fire was not determined.

Captain John Parrott of the Ridge Patrol said that barrel after barrel of oil blew up, one of them shooting directly over the heads of men fighting the fire. The two-story structure was considered to be a total loss. Fire officials declined to make an early estimate of the damage. The Ridge Patrol flagged all trains on the Pennsylvania Inbound to Cincinnati and those outbound toward Hamilton. Valley residents for miles around were calling police for information of the fire and blasts.

Several persons were jarred from their beds In Pleasant Ridge, they said.

Moscow, October 10 (AP) The Tass official Russian news agency reported tonight that Germany announced it would consider itself "free to act" should Russia denounce the Spanish non-intervention pact. The news agency said Prince Otto von iemarck, representing the German government, made this announcement to the "on-Interven-tion Committee at its meeting in London Frida- Informed observers tonight believed Russia might withdraw from the pact soon, but believed it highly doubtful whether Russia would assist the Madrid government with anything more than sympathy and food.

Charles E. Coughlin tonight reiterated his assertion President Roosevelt has "Communistic tendencies" and offered "as proof" the charter of a corporation which, he said, was formed in Delaware under New Deal auspices. Replying to an address by Rt. Rev. John A.

Ryan of the Catholic University, taking exceptions to Coughlin's criticisms of the New Deal, the priest said this corporation's charter contained authority to "manage and maintain projects and structures of every kind nature and description." In addition, he said, the charter empowered the corporation to "acquire, by purchase, exchange, or otherwise, all or any part of, or any interest in the properties, assets business, and good will of any or more firms organized under the laws of Delaware." "Though the New Deal Administration has withdrawn this hidden charter from the files of Delaware," he said, "the deed was done. Acqui Goes Over Line After Hushing Through liuckeve Guard For Thirty-Five Yard Run Panthers Prefer Power, Never Resort To Air. BY LOU SMITH. (Staff Correspondent) SPECIAL DISPATCH THE EXtlUMER. Columbus, Ohio, October 10 Ohio State'3 dream of a national football championship lay trampled in the sod of Ohio Stadium tonight.

Pittsburgh, boasting its greatest team in years, bowled the Buckeyes over today, 6 to 0, in a bruising battle, witnessed by 71,714, including presidential candidate Alf M. Landon, and his party. Seldom has such football been paced into 60 minutes of any game. For more than three quarters the famed "aerial circus" of State and the Golden Panthers of Pitt were locked in a titantic scoreless tie. With the exception of one substantial march of 53 yards by the pile-driving Panthers late in the first quarter the two powerful elevens fought mostly between the two 40-yard stripes.

POOR PUNT COSTLY. But midway in the fourth period the ever-alert Panthers took ad-vantgc of a poor punt from tho educated toe of George Kabealo, and in two plays swept 37 yards for the only score of the game. Harold Stebbins, 180-pound soph omore half from Williamsport, was the man of the hour for the Jock Sutherland coached Panthers. Stebbins, a fourth quarter substitute, reeled off a two-yard gain on his first attempt, and on his next swept 35 yards behind a maze of blue and gold jerseyed Interferes for a touchdown. He went over the final chalk line standing up.

The play was set up perfectly. Taking a direct pass from center. Stebbins whirled, faked as though he was going to circle his own right end, and then knifed between State's right guard and tackle. John Chickerino, 210-pound sophomore quarter back, took out State's right end, the only buck who had a chance to nail Stebbins, with a clean block. The young sophomore went the remainder of the way on his own steam.

The Bucks opened up with their famed "aerial circus" in the closing minutes of the game. But they alert and cat-like secondary experienced little trouble batting down both their long and short heaves. The Panthers richly deserve their Continued On Page 38, Column 4.

(Staff Correspondent) STICIAL DISPATCH TO THE ENQUIRER. Omaha, October 10 Unqualified praise of the Administra tion farm policy for the last four years and an unqualified Indorsement of the senatorial candidacy of Senator George W. Norris, Republican Independent, -Aho is running for reelection against a Democrat and a regular Republican, featured President Roosevelt's major speech in the farm belt in Omaha tonight. The Norris indorsement is expected to cause repercussions, not only in Nebraska, but elsewhere throughout the country during the remainder of the campaign, but whether the reaction will be favorable or unfavorable to the President's candidacy is not yet apparent. The Democratic nominee for the Senate, Terry Carpenter, was ignored entirely during the presidential swing through Nebraska, and he did not attend the Omaha rally tonight.

He has been running for weeks without any aid, moral or material, from the Roosevelt leaders in Nebraska and Washington. NORRIS BOARDS TRAIN. In contrast to this, Senator Norris boarded the Roosevelt special at Afton, Iowa, early this morning and appeared on the platform with the President in Lincoln, the capital city, this afternoon, where the President made an extemporaneous talk, and in Omaha tonight. Upon urgent requests from the crowd, Senator Norris spoke briefly after the President had concluded, but it was a ringing indorsement of the Roosevelt candidacy, in which he characterized the President as one of the greatest Presidents the Country has had. There is similarity between the situations in Minnesota and Nebraska, since in both states the Roosevelt managers have indorsed third-party candidates.

In Minnesota, the Democratic nominees withdraw as a result of adminis-tion influence in favor of the Farmer-Labor candidates, but In Nebraska, the indorsement of Senator Norris flies in the face of the candidacy of a Democrat. MAKES ONE EXCEPTION. In his tribute to the senior Sena tor tonight, the President emphasized that he was going counter to his rule of nonparticipation in state elections, but he added that so long as Senator Norris lives he would make the exception "one magnificently justified exception," he said. "George Norris's candidacy tran scends state and party lines," he said. "In our national history we have had few elder statesmen who, like him, have preserved the aspirations of youth as they accumulated the wisdom of years.

"He is one of the major prophets of America. Help this great American to continue an historic career of service," he added. The crowd responded enthusiastically to the indorsement, but there were indications during the day that the conservative element in the Democratic party, as in Minne- Continued On Page 26, Column 5.

And Raid Communist Hall In Metz, France. Nazis Post Extra "Traffic Officers" On Frontier As Peasants Demonstrate. Metz, France, October 10 (AP) Fierce rioting in Metz and isolated clashes in several points tonight marked the beginning of the Communist weakened "propaganda tour" of Alsace-Lorraine.

Numerous arrests were made and dozens of persons injured as the allied front of Rightists and Catholic peasants, demonstrating angrily against the Communists, clashed with police and steel-helmeted mobile guardsmen. Strong forces of mobile guards. with bayonets fixed, arrived at Strasbourg this evening and were posted at strategic points in the city as reports circulated that Rightists, reportedly including members of Colonel Francois De La Rocque's outlawed "croix de feu," would attempt to occupy the meeting hall before the Communists move in tomorrow. RIGHTISTS TO STORM HALL. RIGHTISTS STORM HALL, at Metz, where Communists succeeded in conducting a meeting, but Rightists afterward stormed the hall, ripped red banners from the walls and burned them in a huge bonfire in the public square.

The ranks of anti-Communist demonstrators at Metz swelled this evening as peasants, armed with pitchforks and scythes, moved into the city from surrounding districts. Authorities feared today's sporadic fighting was only a prelude to graver disorders tomorrow during the scheduled Communist meetings, the principal one of which is to take place at Strasbourg. Cries of "Down with Communism!" rang through the streets tonight in the wake of today's melee, in which 10 persons were injured. TWO ACCUSED OF PLOT. Strasbourg, France, October 10 (AP) Special police inspectors tonight arrested two men charged with plotting the assassination of speakers at Sunday's scheduled Communist propaganda meeting.

The names of the men were withheld. The French Government poured more than 2,500 mobile guardsmen into the region to preserve order in the historic "lost provinces," which the World War brought back to France. There were also reports, consistent but unconfirmed, that Reichs-leader Adolf Hitler had doubled the German frontier guards, using "SS" (Schutz Staff el) troops. This was denied officially in Berlin, although it was explained the number of "SS" men at the frontier Continued On Page 6, Column 6. the game except the strong and vastly improved defensive play of the Bearcat forward wall.

The field, ankle deep in water and mud, slowed the running attack of both teams and made an aerial game almost impossible. Both elevens sloshed and skidded around aimlessly and the RAIN IS TO LET UP; TODAY TO BE COOL After five days of rainy weather, in which there was 2.93 inches precipitation, W. B. Schlomer, assistant meteorologist, last night predicted a brief respite. Today will be cloudy and moderately cool, with the lowest temperature this morning about 50 degrees, he said.

There was .31 of an inch rainfall between 4 and 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Temperatures yesterday ranged from 57 to 66 degrees. find ways of conserving the moisture we receive during periods of overabundance. The use of the earth for the greatest good of the greatest number for the longest time is a wonderful conception. The development and the utilization of all the resources of the world with foresight and common sense is a vast and vital undertaking.

It goes directly to the heart of humanity's struggle for existence. "It is the first requis te for security and a better life." Warning" against the n-glect of the "spirit of eportsmin.ih'.p in our wild life," Governor Landon said that the American people had proved that our natural resources are not inexhaustible, "a3 only a generation ago they were commonly believed to be."

In the course of his speech, delivered by radio preliminary to an address before a Maryland rally of the National Union for Social Justice, Father Coughlin referred to Monsignor Ryan as "the ecclesiastical spokesman for the Democratic National Committee" and as "the Right Reverend New Dealer." "Read the history of the first or second or third international conventions of the Communists," Father Coughlin continued. "Scrutinize the economic laws or edicts which have emanated from Moscow since 1917 and I challenge you to discover a more comprehensive theoretic onslaught against private property than was expressed in these paragraphs which I have just read paragraphs conceived In Washington and executed in Delaware; paragraphs which legalize the theoretic confiscation of any Continued On Page 2, Column 6.

Mexico City, October 10 (AP) A Pan-American Airways airliner with a crew of four, including three Americans, was reported to have crashed today near Guatemala City. Word of the accident reached the company's offices here tonight Piloting the ship was Captain A.

Paschal of Brownsville, Texas. Other Americans aboard were co-Pilot A. L. Palmer and Radio Operator W. P.

Neyman. Their home addresses in the United States were not known here. Company officials said the Guatemala National Telegraphs reported the ship, which took off from San Salvador at 8:19 o'clock (9:19 a. m. Eastern Standard Time) on its way to Guatemala City, crashed near San Jose Pinula, 15 miles southeast of Guatemala City.

A searching party sent from Guatemala City in automobiles reported early this evening it had tentatively located the missing plane about 20 miles from San Jose Pinula, but said travel was difficult and communication facilities poor in that region. greater part of the battle was a kicking contest between London Gant and an array of Georgetown backs. The booting duel, however, was a thing of beauty, with Gant having the edge. His long kicks often drove the Hoyas deep in their territory or pulled Cincinnati out of danger. The Bearcats, although unable to cope with the last minute charge of the Hoyas, played savagely to prevent the Easterners crossing their goal just before the second period ended.

Cincinnati was pushed deep into its territory by a penalty and a fumble. Georgetown made a first down on the Cincinnati 4-yard line Three times the Georgetown backs crashed into the Cincinnati line and three times they were repelled. The Bearcats were lined up to smear the final line crash when the gun sounded, saving them the trouble. Cincinnati had but one real scor- Continued On Page 43, Column S.

C. Bearcats, 7-0 In Presidential Race, Unique Poll Reveals To what extent is religion a determining issue In the current presidential campaign? What percentage of the Negro vote has President Roosevelt alienated from its traditional Republican leanings? These questions the American Institute of Public Opinion has undertaken to answer today In a nation-wide poll that probably is unique In the annals of straw votes. The results of this poll are reported on page 29. The Institute's canvass shows that while there are interesting variations In political sentiment among voters of the various religious faiths today, religious differem are unimportant In this presidential election. Mr.

Roosevelt polls a slight majority of the church members' vote slightly less than among non-members and is especially strong with Catholics, Baptists, and Jews. Governor Alf M. Lani'on is the favorite of a majority of the voters of other large denominations, figure compiled the Institute Indicate. The poll among Negro voters shows what the Institute describes as one of the most significant shifts in many elections: 69 per cent of the Negroes polled Intend to vote for Mr. Roosevelt in November.

The shift, 8 per cent since 1932, is accounted for by the fact that a large part of the nation's Negro population has been a benefich.ry of the New Deal relief program. On the "America Speaks" page the Institute also Interprets In terms of campaign strategy the results of the Roosevclt-Landon poll reported last Sunday, The Institute's political experts predict that the major offensive of each party will cover the group of "borderline" states In the East an" Middle West. Thie has been borne out, least for the present, by announcements In the last day or two of campaign itineraries mapped for Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Landon.

Next Sunday the Institute of Public Opinion till announce the results of another nation-wide poll on the presidential race. BY BOB BOHNE. The game's last minute that saved the University of Cincinnati Bearcats from defeat a week ago spelled defeat for them last night at Nippert Stadium when Georgetown University of Washington, D. pushed over a touchdown as the final seconds were ticking. Valiquette added the extra point from placement to give the Hoyas a 7-to-0 victory as 4,500 spectators looked on.

The touchdown resulted from a 31-yard drive on a field that was a virtual quagmire. It took the Georgetown eleven just seven plays to complete the drive. The touchdown play was a spectacular lateral from Tom Keating to Jim Dooley. It was this same pair, principally Keating, who had carried the ball to the Bearcat 2-yard line. Until the final touchdown drive of Georgetown there was little to.
