Boston. Nov. 4.-Calvin Coolidge, Re
publican, was reelected governor of
Massachusetts, by about 10000 votes
in tHs most exciting contest the State
has witnessed in years. He ran on a
law and order" platform.
The principal issue in the campaign
had been ethe recent police. strike in
this city. Governor Coolidge had sus-
tained the police commissioner In dis
missing the 900 or more policemen who
had walked out. Richard H. Long,
the Democratic candidate, had prom
ised to reinstate them and to remove
the police commissioner.
The returns indicate that the labor
vote. on which the Democrats had
counted. swung over to the Republican
candidate, who has favored all pro-
gressive labor legislation and whose
signature to the forty -eight-hour bill
this year was a strong card in his
favor.
In the industrial centers, all of
which were claimed by the Democrats,
the only gains recorded made were by
Coolidge.
Longs supporters had predicted a
lead Of 5000 for him in Boston. Gov
ernor Coolidge cut Longs lead in the
