FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany, Nov. 1. OP) The Graf Zeppelin rested tonight In its home hangar for the first time in many days. Dr. Hugo Eckener, meanwhile, planned for the day when his dream of trans-Atlantic dirigible passenger air service will have become a reality.

"This ship Is finished Zsr me as far as general regular passenger traffic is concerned," Dr. Eckener said tonight. Need Faster Airships. "We must have faster and stronger airships if we want to carry a regular passenger service. We have shown that the ship and motors are proof against any weather; but we must now set about building a con-atructionally stronger airship." The act of hte blond young stowaway, Clarence Terhune, captivated the German imagination.

"From our increasing resources we have doubled the expenditures upon our educational system in eight years, although we have increased in population but 10 per cent. From our greater income, and thus our ability to free youth from toil we have increased the attendance in our grade schools by 14 per cent, in our high schools by 80 per cent, and in our institutions of higher learning by 95 Jber cent. Not all of our industries have kept pace with the front rank, and it is the duty of the government to build them up with every resource in its power.

"I can not believe that the American people wish to abandon those policies of government which have been maintained by the Republican party, and without which results so amazing and so stimulating to the spiritual as well as to the material advance of the nation would not have been possible. "Economic advancement is not an end of itself. Successful democracy rests wholly upon the moral and spiritual quality of its people. Material prosperity and moral progress must march together." Zihlman Introduces Hoover. A crowd that jammed the public square and extended into half a dozen side streets greeted Mr.

Hoover with an acclaiming roar as he mounted a covered platform which had been constructed only a feWj steps from the track upon which his train came to a stop. Before the welcoming cheers had died away, Geland L. Tait, chairman of the Maryland state Republican committee, was addressing the throng as "Fellow citizens. Republicans. Democrats, Progressives and Independents." He presented Representative Frederick N.

Zihlman of Maryland, who introduced Mr. Hoover "as tho next President." There was another roar from the crowd -as the nominee stepped to the microphone. Preliminary to his prepared address he thanked the Mary-landers for their greeting. "I do wish to express my appreciation of this fine evidence of your generosity and this touching reception." he said, adding that he saw in the crowd some members of the train crew and some other railroad men.

"I think I ought to tell them I am grateful to them," he said.

ELECTION BATTLE IN EAST PUZZLES CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE. noise and yet will decide the issue have been numerous. The Republic ans have confidently assumed that the silent vote is theirs and that the women especially, having registered as never before, were Hoover adher ents. This can not be accepted flatly, however, for there is abundant evidence that Catholic women wno never registered or voted before have come out by the thousands to express their protest against the idea that their sons are ineligible for the presidency. The existence of a large number of Catholic partisans who feel sensitive about the religious issue is conceded and the difficult' question for the observer to answer is whether this is the silent vote or whether it is the vote of women who are out of sympathy with Governor Smith's prohibition views.

Managers Perplexed. With such a large number of new voters and so many thousands of Republicans voting the Democratic ticket for the first time, it is small wonder that the political managers themselves feel perplexed about making absolute forecasts In the East. The Literary Digest poll, for instance, shows that while Smith runs behind on total votes he actually is receiving twice as many votes from the Republican party as he is losing from the Davis vote of 1924. Thus In Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia and North Carolina Hoover has gained 71,734 votes from those who voted the Democratic ticket four years ago, but Smith, on the other hand, in those same states has taken a total of 152,907 from those who voted for Coolidge in 1924. This ratio of gain Is so large that it may have a significant bearing on the result.

In any event it corroborates the view that Smith is gaining more than he is losing in the exchange. The big question is whether he is gaining enough and whether the new vote will overbalance such gains, for the Digest poll shows Hoover much the better off in respect to those who didn't vote at all last time. Entirely New Lineup. The indications are that party lines have been broken very largely by the counterattack on the tariff issue made by the Democrats and by the feeling of Republictns and Democrats in the East that prohibition conditions are unsatisfactory. There will be an entirely' new lineup which will more closely reflect the pro and anti-Smith feeling than a pro or anti-Hoover trend.

Mr. Hoover Is affirmatively benefited by his personality in business circles and with people who are traditionally Republican anyhow. Governor Smith as made his deepest inroads on the Republican party by capturing for the most part the man on the street. Yet in the check-up of indifferent voters from time to time, it is the man on the street who most often fails to vote. The business groups are negligent, too.

but the proportion of stay-at-homes from the masses is represented by something near 20,000,000. Many forget to register or do not take the trou ble to comply with state laws. The radio has intensified interest and undoubtedly the large registration this year Is the result of the very fierce pro and anti-Smith campaign that has been waged. But the so-called upper classes have been registering, too, and probably more of them proportionately will get to the polls of tl.eir own accord than will the working folks. Here is where organization and the automobile will do.

its job on election day. He would be a rash prophet who would confidently assess the trend in the Eastern states on any numerical basis. Tide Is Rising. The chances of Governor Smith winning the East are about even and if he loses the East it is likely that he will lose it all and if he wins it he may carry states he was not expected to capture, like Connecticut, New Hampshire and even Delaware. It's a tide that is rising in the East, a rising tide of color, of religion, of immigration resentment, of protest against prohibition and in some sections against industrial depression.

But the tide must go very high indeed to overcome the large Republican majorities of 1921 and 1920 and this correspondent frankly concedes that he can not estimate the full "irce of that tide in popular votes, for with group voting there is no canvas, even figures which gives anything but theoretical percentages.

1- Big Crowds Prove Democrats' Election Is in Air. NEW YORK, Nov. 1. F)-With election day almost at hand, Governor Alfred E. Smith is confident that the succession of crowds which have cheered him from the Atlantic seaboard to the Rocky Mountains can mean but one thing victory.

"It is in the air." were the words he used today in discussing with press correspondents the many ovations he has received during the campaign. "Were you over In Jersey last night?" the Democratic nominee asked the correspondent who had brought this question and receiving an affirmative answer, he added: "There was something doing over here, wasn't there? It's In the air. It is the same all over." Works on Speeches. The Governor's conference with the press was one of several interruptions In a day spent behind the closed doors of his suite in the Hotel Bilt-more preparing the last three speeches to be delivered. One of these will be delivered in Brooklyn tomorrow night as a climax to a day's program which includes a parade up Broadway between New York's towering skyscrapers.

The second speech will be made in Madison Square Garden Saturday night, and the third, which will be his final appeal to the voters, will be delivered Monday night from a radio studio to which only Democratic chieftains, personal friends of the nominee, and the press will be admitted. Today the Governor spoke briefly tf a group of naturalized American citizens and also to another group composed of representatives of the College League for Smith. Both of these addresses were delivered in a parlor of the Biltmore hotel. ADDRESS BY RADIO. Speech to Be Broadcast Over loast-tn-Coast Network.

Foley of Indianapolis, a member of the state prison board for twenr ty-two years, said in an address today before the Noblesville Kiwanis Club that the crime wave sweeping over Indiana and other rtates could not be attributed to boys and girls, as so many newspapers and people contend.

Mr. Foley proceeded to verify his statement with figures. He said there were 1,029 prisoners in the Michigan City state prison in 1907, when he became a member the board of trustees, and on Oct. 1 of this year the number of convicts was 2.151. In 1907 there were 1,151 in the state reformator -and on the first day of last month the number was 1.945.

In each penal institution the number of prisoners had practically doubled. The speaker said there were 5S9 Inmates in the boys' reform school at Plainfield in 1907. but on the first day of October the number was 488. He showed a corresponding decrease in the number of girls in the Clermont school for girls. HOLD FUNERAL RITES FOR BOBERT LANSING WASHINGTON, Nov 1.

His denunciation was so extreme and his action so shameless that it fell under the ban of the Post Office Department, and received the attention of the postmaster general, who removed the postmaster and "other persons connected with the anonymous effort.

While it was obvious that thia was done under Mr. Rasbok's commmittee, he uttered no word of censure. He approved it by his silence. "The country will long remember the able mud gunners of the Raskob battery Senators Caraway, Reed, Hansbrough, Robinson, Blease, Glass, Bruce, Governor Bilbo and their assistants from private life, Dudley Field Malone, Clarence Darrow and others.

Orr, chief examiner of the state board of accounts, and Arthur L. Gilliom, attorney general.

The trial is the outgrowth of the shooting and death of William Fulks. Aug. 8.

He said he was afraid that Fulks and Frank McMillian and his two daughters, who had rushed to the scen with a croquet mallet, would kill him if he did not protect GOMMUN TY FUND Always 33 HOOVER ELECTION URGED BY HUGHES CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE.

Hoover's farm relief and water power policies, quoting from the speeches of both candidates to illustrate his contention that Hoover's views on both issues are "sound and workable." Of prohibition, he said, "It is my deliberate opinion that there is no chance of modification of the eighteenth amendment. I am confident that the country never would accept enforcement by a wet as a test of prohibition." Replies to Attack. Mr. Hughes, replying to what he described as an attack on him by a leading Democratic newspaper for supporting Hoover, dwelt at some length on an intimation in the newspaper that he might have been more active in preventing the transfer of the nation's oil leases under the Harding administration. Such an implication, he said, "Is absolutely false.

None of those leases," he declared, "was decided unon in any Cabinet meeting. I knew nothing whatever about them.1 The same may be said of President Coolidge and Mr. Hoover. That sort of calumny affronts the common sense of the American people." Rebuking attacks upon Hoover's citizenship, Mr. Hughes traced the nominees career irom nis Iowa childhood through his work as a young engineer to the stage where Hoover's broadening activities took him abroad "to practice his profession in many countries." "In all this work abroad," he said.

"Hoover personified the intelligence, resourcefulness and humanity of America. Such ability (as Hoover exhibited during the postwar recon struction of Europe) is not to be held lightly at a time like this. The American people are going to need it. and need it badly. "Mr.

Hoover is seeking not to aggrandize the government, but the individual; to make this government the individual's servant, not his master. It is on this view that he is absolutely opposed to the unwarrantable extension of bureaucratic government. "In his activities he has thrown a welcome light upon departmental aims and practices; he believes in the importance of regulation in the public interest. But he desires methods to establish, without governmental dictation, a more efficient production." Views on Peace. Hoover's view of international peace, Mr.

Hughes said, is not "simply in the laying down of the arms of nations. International peace must be followed by industrial peace as the essential condition of progress in Democracy. His measure of our national prosperity is 'the measure that we may risk through a change in present The nominee's farm relief policy, Mr. Hughes said, proposes assistance by the government, but control of the relief agencies by the farmers themselves. There, is no controversy, he said, between Governor Smith and Hoover on "retention of government ownership of water power sites owned by the state or the Federal government." Test on Principle.

"The test comes," he said, "in operation. If there is any question of importance presented on this subject, it is whether the principle (of governmen. ownership and private operation) shall be abandoned and the nation and the state shall go into the business of generating, distributing an-l selling electric power." Mr. Hughes indorsed also the candidacy of former Ambassador Houghton, Republican candidate for the United States Senate, and Attorney General Ottinger, gubernatorial nominee. "In voting for Herbert Hoover," he said, "we shall do our utmost to promote the prosperity which is the foundation of progress.

Relates Personal Experience.

"Few persons are so much indebted to railroads and ship crews as am I. In all these years I have never seen a wrock or an accident. I am the living evidence of the care and responsibility of trainmen." Deviating here from his text, Mr. Hoover for the first time in the campaign related a personal experience to emphasize this point. "The closest I ever came to an accident was during the world war, while I was working in Belgium," he said.

"I was crossing the North sea on a boat on which I had crossed a number of times. The steward ordinarily did not collect tor the meals at the time they were served, but waited until the passage had been completed beiore asking payment.
