Hindenburg Fails to be Elected
In the heaviest and quiestest elec-
tion the German Republic has ever
known, last Sunday, President Paul
Avon Hindenburg failed by the nar-
rowest margin to obtain the requisite
majority over the combined votes of
his opponents to insure the re-elec-
tion on the first ballot, as provided
by • the somewhat cumbersome elec-
toraI machinery of the Reich. His
triumph, however, in the second el-
ection, to be held a month hence, is
assured. His withdrawal from the
contest, despite his great age, was
not -even considered.

not confine the clinic simply to the
