SMITH TO MAKE FINAL SUMMING UP TONIGHT (Continued from Page 1.) ver to appoint a prohibition commission because he intended to be elected and handle that problem himself by carrying it to the people. Contending that the "Egyptian sphinx is a talking machine compared to the Republican state plank on prohibition" and pointing out that Albert Ottinger, Republican Gubernatorial candidate, has announced he will wait until the promised Hoover commission is appointed, Smith said. "Ain't Going to Be Any Commission." "Well, that is a little bit too long to wait. There ain't going to be any report, because there ain't going to be any commission. I'll attend to that.

As I have promised throughout the country I shall take that question to the American people and lay it before them fairly, clearly, straightforwardly and intelligently, and I shall let them settle it." The governor argued that the publican party had cringed from progressive solutions of the farm relief, prohibition, water power and governmental economy issues. "When you come along with a modern advanced, up to date, progressive method of handling something, Mr. Hughes will say 'you are putting the government in and Mr. Hoover will say, 'state socialism'." He said, at another point, arguing that government costs are bound to increase because of increased governmental activities. Appeals For State Ticket.

The speech had many such choice Smithian morsels as the following: "With all due respect to the comptroller-I love him but all our comptrollers give you reports that nobody in the world can read. It is just the habit of accounting. You can do better with prescription. How about that Doc?" (turning around to Senator Copeland, Democrat, New York, a physician.) The governor closed with a dramatic appeal for the state ticket in the following words: "I am going through a national campaign. I am fighting some pretty bright men.

They have plenty of brains and they have a great deal of money. We are within two days of election. Have you ever heard from the lips of any mortal man a single suggestion about the government of this state under me? He can't do it. "The Democratic office holders in Albany are giving to the people of this state, a constructive, a forwardlooking, a wise, a capable and an economical administration of their affairs. They have paid attention to the buman side as well as to the business side--and that human side is the great side of government.

I leave Albany, no matter what happens to me, I want to see that preserved as worked day and night to build it up." Not Seeing Any Callers. The heads of the state Democratic ticket including Franklin D. Roosevelt. Gubernatorial candidate, two hours about Smith's stewardship in Albany before he went to the rostrum to talk about them. No callers are being admitted to the governor's suite before election so he may devote every moment until Monday midnight planning the last minute developments.

Gets 20-Minute Ovation. Smith received a 20-minute ovation before beginning his Brooklyn speech. This was the climax of a long of cheering for the Democratic candidate. Beginning at noon, he had paraded through five miles of New York streets to the acclaim of hundreds of thousands who braved a drizzle to hail him. Another "triumphal procession" red as the nominee through Brooklyn streets to the Academy of Music.

Crowds gathered, cheered and sang. Nearly 40.000 stormed the hall in vain efforts to get inside the build. ing, which holds only 4,000. PLANS BEING MADE TO HANDLE CHRISTMAS RUSH Plans are already being made by the United State postal department to handle the Christmas rush, and announcement has been made that there will be no Christmas delivery of mail or parcels this year. An order to this effect has been issued by Postmaster General H.

S. Now. who states that postmasters will suspend work in postoffices from 12 o'clock midnight, December 24, except special delivery service and the regular holiday collections, dispatches For Hoover Faith Baldwin, prominent author. ess, declares: 441 am for Herbert Hoover because believe that in experience, character, vision and party platform he is the logical man to represent the United States as its Chief Executive. I am for Mr.

Hoover because he has proven his ability. The nation and the Republican party has no finer representative." RECENT DEATHS. Mrs. Cornelia Whitney. Mrs.

SHOULD MAKE EFFORT TO AVOID SPOILING BALLOT With many new voters the question of mutilated or spoiled ballots has arisen. A ballot that carries the intention of the voter, even if crudely marked, is to be counted. But care should be taken not to place any mark on the ballot until the voter is quite sure where to place it. If a ballot is spoiled or mutilated by the voter he or she may obtain another by returning to the election officials the defective sheet.

The ballots thus spoiled and returned shall be immediately canceled and at the close of the polls shall be secured in an envelope, sealed and sent to the proper office, as required by law in case of ballots cast.
