As the closing hours OF the campaign

judgment of veteran politicians in
Washington, that apathy has not been

thought to be a few weeks ago.
That the voters in all parts OF 5he
country have not displayed this year the
usual signs Of interest in the issJe Of
the campaign is testified TO by every

clans TO think that apathy marked the

they were mistaken in their diagnosis.
They have learned that the vaters in all

This revised view of the situation
