P. organ in the East, published a "piece" about Nominee Smith written by Arthur Brown Ruhl, a correspondent seasoned by a quarter-century of political writing in the U. S. and abroad. It was not a "piece" calculated to help Hoover beat Smith. It was an honest effort by Writer Ruhl to report on Nominee Smith as he saw him.

...years old were made for curative purposes. A short time ago the aborigines of some Pacific islands still exercised a similar practice, making holes in their skulls with sharp shells to cure chronic headaches."
