Serious Auto Accident
There was much excitement in
Union last Sunday afternoon and
Monday on account of the very ser
ious accident which occurred about
a mile and a half south of Union on
Sunday evening, in which a number
of people were very seriou.;ly injur
ed and it was feared for a time that
some of the occupants of t!e wreck
ed cars would die.
Miss Lovey Hiatt, of Sidrey, Iowa,
was coming north and was accomp
anied by her brother-in-law, Frank
R. Gobelman, of Plattsmouth, and
Mrs. Blanche Streight, of Sidney.
Miss Hiatt was driving one of the
new Fords, with which she was not
overly well acquainted, having driv
en one of the old style Fords prior
to the acquisition of this one. At the
same time Joseph Hill and family, of
Percival, Iowa, were returning home
from a visit with friends and rela
tives at Murray and Union, and were
going south, being just south of the
narrow bridge near the home of Jay
Austin. Another car was between
them, occupied by Fred Cleveland,
and in coming down the hill Miss
Hiatt's car gathered a' lot of speed,
causing her to turn out to pass the
car of Mr. Cleveland and she did not
notice the car of Mr. Hill until it
was too late to avoid a collision. The
cars came together with much force
and in the shake-up, four were very
badly injured, they being Mr. and
Mrs. Hill, Miss Hiatt and Mr. Gobel
man. The three former were taken
to the hospital at Nebraska City, but
Mr. Gobelman was removed to his
home at Plattsmouth. The two Hill
children, who were in their car at
the time, escaped without serious In
jury, as did Mrs. Streight, the other
ocupant of Miss Hiatt's car.
J. W. Hill, a brother of Joseph
Hill, the injured man in the wreck,
in company with his wife, daughter
and the latter's husband, while en
route to Nebraska City Monday to
see the injured relatives, stopped at
the scene of the accident and was
struck by a passing car, with the re
sult that his own bU3 was damaged
as well as the occupants shaken up
consiaeraDiy.
Madison, Wis., Oct. 20. Senator
James A. Reed of Missouri, in a cam
paign speech here tonight, renewed
his attack on Herbert Hoover's pat
riotism.
"There is one consoling fact in this
campaign." Reed began.
"We have the chance to vote for
one man whose citizenship does not
require an official certificate.
"Nobody has ever suspected Al
Smith of being a naturalized British
subject.
"His name has never been certi
fied to a British election board as
possessing the voting qualifications
of a British taxpayer.
Never in Question.
"Al Smith's place of residence has
never been in question.
"Smith has not been obliged to
maintain a ghost habitat at Stan
ford university, or at any other place.
"Governor Smith has never been
tendered an English titleb y the
British government.
"Al Smith's investments are not
so large as to require syndication."
Tonight was the first time since
the democratic national convention
that nominated Governor Smith for
the presidency that the tongue of the
grey and vitriolic Missouri senator
had been loosed in such a bitter at
tack on the republican presidential
nominee's citizenship.
Hoover Not a Republican
Reed went even farther than that.
He said that Hoover was not a re
publican; that he was a changeling
and an opportunist.
In 1920, said Reed, Hoover was
boomed by Colonel House as a demo
cratic successor to Woodrow Wilson
and Hoover was acquiescent.
Senator Reed -quoted from public
statements of Senator Charles Cur
tis (Hoover's Tunning mate), Sena
tor Simeon D. Fess, of Ohio, who
delivered the keynote of the repub
lican convention this year, and Sen
ator William E. Borah, who is cam
paigning for Hoover, to show that
those men formerly were critical of
the candidate they now are support
ing. Belgium Imported Food.
He set out to explode the myth
that Hoover was the savior of Bel
gium when he served as food admin
istrator during the world war.
"In the feeding of the Belgians,"
pReed said, "Mr. Hoover was, in fact,
performing a great service for the
British and French governments. The
simple facts are that Belgium im
ported a large part of her food sup
plies. When Germany invaded Bel
gium, England caused the closing of
the ports of Holland through which
Belgium received her supplies.
"Accordingly, arrangements were
finally made by which Germany stip
ulated that supplies to the Belgians
would not be seized, but the supplies
must be sent in through an agency
of neutrals."
Reed said that France and Eng
land wanted the Belgians to have
food so that the morale of the Bel
gian army would not go to pieces.
Farmers Spffered During War.
"He (Hoover) bled the farmers
white during the war," said Reed.
"He reduced the price of farm pro
ducts far below the war level, whilst
the farmers were compelled to bus
at war level. But now comes Mr.
Hoover and says he has a remedy for
the farmers. He does not know just
what it will be, but it will be some
thing. Lincoln Star.

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR
CONGRESS
will support Herbert Hoover as President
and not annoy him, and thus our District
will have an active, affirmative part in the
affairs of government. Read this comment:
"Senator Burkett, Eepublican Candidate for Congress, makes
no apologies for the fact that he introduced bills and made speeches
when he was in Congress. Over at the Bnrr picnic his opponent
said that speeches and introdnction of bills was a useless extrava
gance. When Senator Burkett came to reply, he said that he had
always believed that the needs and ideals of his District onght
to be advocated and fought for on the floor of Congress, and that
he had introduced a good many bills and made a good many speeches
in the past-and would do so in the future. He referred to his
speech for free lumber, for rural free delivery, irrigation, more
liberal pensions to soldiers, educational and agricultural bills all
as worth while.
"He stated that a good many of the bills that he had intro
duced have become law, , such as the Postal Savings Bank bill, the
Boiler Inspection bill, Freer Lumber, Teaching of Agriculture in
Normal Schools, Pension bills and others, and that if the people
elected him, he would be found in the future fighting for their in
terests and their needs, just as he had done in the past"
