COOLIDGE IS
REELECTED BY
Big PLURALITY
Champion of Law and Order
Wins Out by Splendid Vote
Over Democratic Opponent
BY Associated Press.

Boston, Nov. 5.-Governor Calvin
Coolidge, Republican, who made
support of law and order the sole
issue of his campaign, was reelected
yesterday by plurality of 124,173
over Richard II. Long, Democrat
The revised vote of the State COM
plete:
Coolidge. 317.S47: Long. 1854.
The vote given Governor Coolidge
was the largest ever cast for Gov
ernor in the State, although his plu-
rality has been exceeded. The total
vote was unusually heavy.
Long also opposed Governor Cool
idge last year and was defeated by
plurality of 1895. Yesterday the
Coolidge vote was more than 100,-
900 ahead of that of 1918 and the
Long vote 1000 behind. Longs lead
of 19,909 in Boston last year was
cut to 5,149 yesterday.
In his campaign Long appealed
particularly to the labor vote, on
the ground that Coolidge had shown
hostility to organized labor in de-
nouncing the striking Boston police
men as deserters. That the appeal
was unsuccessful was shown by the
result of the balloting in the cities
of the State.
Whole G. o. p. Ticket
Outside of Boston, Long carried
only four cities out of thirty-seven
and in all but one of these his
plurality was much smaller than a
year ago. Nine cities which returned
pluralities' for Long in 1918 swung
over to Coolidge yesterday. Spring
| field, which gave Coolidge total oi
6,S47 and a plurality of 1856 last
year, gave him yesterday a total ot
10,21S and a plurality of 5,S29, the
largest in any city. Worcester polled
0,371 votes for Coolidge in 1918
with a plurality of 632; yesterday il
gave him a total of 1906, the larg-
est of any city outside of Boston
and a plurality of $3.50.
One of the greatest overturns wa!
in Lowell. which turned a plurality
| for Long of 1,69S last year into one
for Coolidge of 1,190 this year.
The entire Republican State ticke
was elected by large margins.
Although the Democrats gained
four seats in the House of Repre-
sentatives, the Republicans gained
| three in the Senate and will hav,
| their usual large majority in boil
branches. The House will have III
| Republicans, 81 Democrats and tive
Independents, and the Senate 33 Re
| publicans and Z Democrats.

PERRY COUNTY

BY A Big VOTE
Comparatively Heavy Vote Is
Cast Despite Disagree
able Weather

New Bloomfield, Pa, Without
exception, the entire Republican
ticket has been elected in Perry
county. The only instance where
Democrats have succeeded in placing
is where it has required that both
parties be represented.
A comparatively heavy vote has
been cast throughout the county,
when it was considered that there
were no contests of any consequence
and that the weather throughout the
county was very disagreeable. with
many of the roads being in very bad
condition. The interest among the
Democrats was not large and in
several instances they had no candi-
dates representing them.

Perry and Juniata counties for the

clerk; George C. Foedisch, represent
ative of the United States Fuel Ad-
ministration. The local terminal and
railroad coal committees will act for
the Federal managers of the railroad
systems comprised in the Allegheny
region which. includes the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad East of Pittsburgh,
and the Philadelphia and Reading
Railway.
Under the new plan local freight
agents are made bituminous coal ad-
ministrators for their respective ter
ritories, and alLirequests for bitum-
inous coal must be made through
them. Mr.. Baldwin says:
During the continuance of the
bituminous coal strike every effort
will be made by the railroads in the
Allegheny region in the distribution
of coal on their lines to protect in
dustries against shutting down and
guarding against idleness to the
greatest extent possible. To this end
however. the utmost care will be ex-
ercised in the granting of permits
for the delivery of coal under the
priority order of the United States
Fuel Administrator.
How to Proceed
Inc metnOu OF procedure 10 De
followed in order to secure coal is
that all applications for coal for
commercial consumers must be made
through the local freight agent of
the railroad which will make the
delivery. This application must show
complete and accurate information
with respect to the preferred nature
of the requirements and amount of
coal which the applicant has on
hand, also the amount required for
the preferred uses, together with the
rate of consumption and the kind
and size of coal desired.
THE railroad freight agent, being
familiar with the conditions prevail
ing at the plant of the applicant, will
make his recommendation and pass
the application on to the coal COM
mittee of the railroad. which will
make delivery. With its approval,
the application will then be for
warded to the regional coal COM
mittee for final authorization and
granting of the permit.
"In order to save delay in securing
permits for the delivery of coal. ap-
plicants should avoid going directly
to the railroad coal committee or to
the regional coal committee. When
a request for a permit is placed in
the proper courses, as outlined
above. instructions have been issued
which will expedite in every way
possible the investigation and the
granting of the permits

Lemoyne Votes For
Motor Fire Apparatus

voters at the election yesterday
passed the loan issue of $1,000 for the
purchase of motor driven fire appar T.

votes cast, but so were against TIE
r.Dposition.
Council at its meeting on Thurs
day will take preliminary steps to-
ward the purchase of a motor driven
pump and chemical hose carrying
truck. Members of the lawmaking
body do not expect to take definite
action for sometime, feeling that
much time is necessary for the selec-
ton of an efficient piece for appara-
tus. The truck will likely be similar
to some of the larger ones used in
Harrisburg and will be adequate to
handle an ordinary fire without as
sistance, from the city department.
