Wefirrti 1 No Damage Done Police Patrols Find Little to Require Attention Monday Evening THOUSANDS "OUT" Demands for Apples Are Met by Edmonton Citizens Halloween ptesed quietly In Edmonton. Repeating their performance of last year when only minor trouble occurred, city children on Monday night celebrated Hallowe'en a generally orderly fashion, and the extensive police organization which patroled the city had little else to do besides to talk about the weather and old timed.

This figure is considered by police and fire department officials to be satisfactorily small.

A Journal reporter went along with Inspector J. J. Shaw and Constable Arthur Johnson in a prowler car, and another With Inspector Matt Blackwood and others In a second prowler machine. They saw thousands of children walking about from door to door, shouting "Hallowe'en apples" and having a whale of a time. Incidentally, the propprletor of a email grocery In the Highlands reported late Monday that he had sold 60 cases of apples during the day.

Hundreds of poroh lights were on during the evening and scores of houses had welcoming Hallowe'en lamps in the froht windows. The police organisation consisted of 70 regular men, 20 specials, 10 ears from the city waterworks department, 10 more supplied by the Lesion of Frontiersmen, and 10 motorcycles operated by member of the Alberta Motorcycle club.

He may go to California ror ma final oratorical appeal. All this, following his big speeches at Dei Moines, Cleveland. Detroit, Indianapolis, with scores of minor efforts along the way. How great a contrast with the first announced program Mr. Hoover was to leave the active campaigning to cabinet subordinates while he sedately made not more than th.e speeches, slbly all by radio, from the dignified comfort of the White House, frealrienl In Peril This all mean, of course, that the president and his advisers realizes that he Is In deady peril.

This realisation Is suggested by another le-leloprnrnt. In 1928, Mr. Hoover riever once referred to Smith by name. By the time the speech was reached, he was attacking his present adversary by name and assailing not only' Roosevelt's public record but his personal activities. Republicans now admittedly are nervous as caU.
