NATION TO WATCH
 ELECTION OUTCOME
 MILWAUKEE TODAY
BERGER RUNNING AGAINST H. II BODENSTAB. SUPPORTED BY
 BOTH BIG PARTIES

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Dec 16- -(Py
 Much interest is centered in the outcome of the election held tomor- row in the Fifth Wisconsin congress sional district in which Victor Berger is running against Harry H. Boden- stab, republican, for the seat which was denied to Berger by the house of representatives several weeks ago on account of his anti-war activities. The interest is not alone local but apparently nation wide
 This district is strongly socialist. It is conceded that il is possible for Berger to be elected but it is be- lieyed that it is hardly probable. Both the democrats and republicans are supporting MT Bodenstab as the party leaders were convinced that a split in the parties would result in the reelection of Berger which they desire to defeat at all costs. An unusually heavy vote is predicted
