Prediction.
Special to The Times.


NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-GOvernor Cox
viii win sweeping victory next Tues
day and the Senate and House win both
return Democratic majorities. If the po-
litical surveys OF all sections Of the coun-
try. made public by the New York Eve
ming Post, leading Independent paper of
the metropolis, furnishes a correct index
of the situation.
Au unmistakable drift toward Cox is
reported by the dozen or more corre-
spondents who size up the political out
look IN the various States.
In all quarters It IS found that senti-
ment OF the League of Nations is In the
ascendancy and that the campaign OF mis-
representation conducted by the league
opponents has run its course.
From such States as Ohio, Indiana,
California. Nebraska, Oklahoma, Mis-
souri,, Colorado, Utah. Minnesota, Wis
consin, Idaho, Washington. New Hamp-
shire. Connecticut and Delaware. the Post
correspondents send cheering news for
the Democrats.
They mark for defeat the following Re
publican Senator's seeking reelection:
Smoot, Lenroot, Moses and Brandegee
and predict victory for Senator Phelan,
Democrat, in California.
Through the reports OF the correspond
ents run the common assertion that sup
porters of Cox and the League Of Ma
tions everywhere are displaying almost
a religious fervor in the closing days Of
the campaign and with this fervor su-
preme confidence in the success Of their
cause. On the other hend it is dis
cerned that the Republican leaders are
evidencing alarm at the rapid rise Of the
Cox tide.
