Formal protest against the motor coach service which replaced street cars here today was made at last night's Council meeting.

7-' The heaviest oratorical guns of the Nazi party were rushed up today as the national election campaign entered its final phase. Not that they appeared to be greatly needed, for Germany is to hold one of the queerest elections on record- anywhere, November 12. A ballot will be placed before the citizen which contains only one list of names a slate picked by Adolph Hitler! But the Nazi regime is eacer to have the votes roll in, a sweeping verdict of popular acclaim in the plebiscite on the Hitler government's bold new foreign policy. There are no opposition candidates: so, there will be no votes against the government. The possibility for gauging public sentiment will be in comparing the votes cast in the plebiscite on foreign policy with the number cast for the Hitler slate.

As every German is expected to vote in the plebiscite, while those opposed to the government may choose not to ballot on the slale, the difference in the number of voles cast for these two questions may be an indication of the popularity of the regime.
