Hoover did HOC Tuttlc at Phil- fttlolphia, but their mooting, afi ob- erved, was formal and perfunctory. (hoy consulted about, Ilio prohlbi- ion policy to be adopted by the Republicans of Now York In the gub- 'i-natorlal fight it escaped the ob- ervatlon of those in the Hoover par- y. Tnttle shook hands with the n-esidnnt in tho executive's box at ho ball game. Oov. Roosevelt, has accused hla Re- lcan opponent of "hedging" on question of prohibition, and of 'boliig wet with tho wets, and dry vith the drys." "His (Tuttle's) answer to my ques- ion bears earmarks of the Presi- lent's policy of being wet and dry at same time," aaid Governor velt.

"It is characteristic of the way the question was dodged in the national campaign (of 1028) in calling tho 18th Amendment 'a noble expen- Governor Roosevelt stands for flat repeal of tho 18th Amendment, and no state enforcement act. Tuttle has come out for repeal of the amend- nent, with a compensating substitute which would prevent the return of the saloon. As for a state enforcement act, Tuttle said he "would not approve a state-wide law follow- ng the provisions of the Volstead Act." That reply Roosevelt character- zed as "dodging." All the more surprise over Roosevelt's charge of "Hoover influence" was felt here because of the rumored coolness between Mr. Hoover and Tuttle. Whether there is any basis for such reports is not, of course, definitely known, but Mr.

Hoover did de- ay for somo time the sending of the customary letter of appreciation of Tuttle's servifies as federal district attorney in New York, following his resignation to run for governor on a platform of nrohibition repeal. And it was noticeable in Mr. Hoover's letter, when he did finally send it, that there was significantly omitted the usual washes for success in the forthcoming election. This omission was explained by White House spokesmen as not meaning that Mr. Hoover would not like to see a Republican administration in New York, but that he is so scrupulously observing neutrality.in the numerpus wet-and-dry fights that he did not wish to give either side an opportunity say he was "intervening" or "taking sides" in a contest featuring prohibition.

Mr. Hoover has observed complete silence about prohibition thus far in the campaign. Next week he will make three- speeches, two in Massachusetts and one on the border of Carolinas, and in none of them is he expected to mention prohibition, at by name. The furtherest he has gone, or will go, it Is expected, is to stand for "law enforcement." FIVElSCFPED Dr. E.

Fortunately the operators of the cars en- cape'd injury. According to State Motor Patrolman R.

H. Raymond, who investigated the accident, L. Rankin, 35, of Vandergrift, was operating the Chrysler car without his headlights burning. He was traveling east and when he attempted to make the turn on the highway a Koro sedan operated by Harry, Infield, of Kennerdell, traveling in the op- direction, side-swiped the loft rear of Rankin's car. Infield claims on account of the short curve in the highway and because.

Rankin's headlights were not burning, he did not see the approaching car until within a few feet of it, and it was impossible for him to avoid the collision. 7 rALITY LOCK HAVEN, Oct. men were dead today and two others were suffering injuries as ihe result of an automobile collision at the Memorial Bridge near Renovo lust night.

Prominent including Lamont Hughes, president of the Carnegie Steel Company; Mayor Charles H.

Klinej E. T. Whiter, vice president the Pennsylvania Railroad; and James Francis Burke, counsel for the Republican party, were in the program with DaVis.

He praised the re- ults of the workmen's compensation' acts of "the- various states which he aid have aided greatly in accidents.

"The report of 97,000 Americans tilled in accidents last year sounds ike the casualty list of a war greater than the last one. It will not do, however, to be pessimistic. The record of the National Safety Council entitles -his body-to every congratulation. In L8 years the' death rate of American ndustry has been cut nearly a third. But, like all Americans, you are less concerned with the past record than irou are with the future," the.

secre- ary said. Hughes his address branded 'thoughtlessness and indifference" as enemies of safety. James Francis Burke was toast- naster of the banquet attended by more than 1,000 persons.

One of the victims was a woman, the wife of the proprietor of the fruit store. She was Mrs. Joseph Lobianco, 29, an expectant mother. Her husband died instantly, crumpling forward to the floor of his far from prosperous shop as the merciless gangsters opened fire. Another victim was an inoffensive, customer who had stepped into the store to make a small purchase.

He was Louis Tbmano, 70. The aged man also toppled over, fatally wounded, when the withering fire was unloosed. Mike 26, a brother of the dead proprietor, was shot through the head as the killers sprayed the interior of the little store with deadly gunfire. No hope was held for his recovery. The killers paused for a moment on the doorway of the shop for a brief survey of their grisly handiwork, and then, gun.in hand, ran to a nearby car and sped away.

Although the murderers, working with the speed and proficiency of professional killers, apparently had gotten away to a temporary haven, the'most gigantic manhunt Pennsylvania ever known, not excepting that for Irene and her confederates, got under way in' the tri- state district. Extra police details were called out; county detectives were ordered to jojn the search and state highway patrolmen and state police 'pushed their way through the tri-state section in search of the Meanwhile, with detachments of armed men deploying through the hills surrounding Pittsburgh quesi of the, killers, a far.different was being enacted in the quiet operation room 'ot the Braddock General Hospital.
