CHAIRMAN \ HAYS
IS CONF|DENT 7 Of
AVAIL LANCHE FOR
HARD|NC-COOL|DCE
Chief of Republicans Sends
Forth Claims That the
G. O. p. Will Garry
All But 9 States

New York, Oct. 29-Wni H. Hays,
chairman OF the Republican national
committee, today issued q statement
in which he said an official Repub-
lican survey OF the country, indicated
that Harding and Coolidge would re-
ceive the largest popular majority
ever cas-" in a presidential election.
1--WE are now approaching the con-
clusion Of the campaign said Mr..
Hays. "On the part of the Republic
can party it has been predicted upon
the necessity Of the revival of pa
triotlsm in this country. 1t has had
for a main purpose the re-establish-
ment of an economic and efficient
administration Of the countrys gov
ernment.
THE Democratic strategy in this
campaign has desperately sought to
escape just and due responsibility for
and failure to solve any of the do.
mestic problems. The Democratic
management has attempted to hide
behind a peace smoke screen which
Is as counterfeit as the 1916 pledge
that Wilson would keep US out o,
war
But America is uppermost in thC
American conscience today, and that
means that the American voter is
intent upon making America safe al
home as well as abroad. and that the
Democratic party cannot avoid re-
sponsibility for eight years malad'
mlnistration.
The electorate Is determined thai
the accumulated work in Washington
will not longer be denied attention
that all the domestic problems shall
be met and solved Immediately before
which problems the Democratic party
has stood impotent and in confessed
bankruptcy.
THE Republicans have succeeded In
the earnest effort to keep their cam
paign on the very highest plane. Ir
this course they will continue to tn,
end, unaffected in any way by th'
depths on which the opposition is de-

OF the campaign"
Il have 100 per cent faith in com
plete Republican victory this fall. be
cause have 100 per cent confidence
| in American common sense, and be
cause / have 100 per cent evidence
that this dependable American intel
ligence will certainly express II at th'
November polls.
"Thirty-two states are surely Re

ably Republican, and only nine, a

minimum number OF safe Republican
electoral votes is 1858. There Is yer,
much better than even chance fo
"a more, making the almost certain
Republican electoral vote Se2 with ;
very probable additional 25."
Mr.. Hays added that the Republi
can majority would exceed "the un
precedented Roosevelt. electoral ma
jority OF 1904"

Republican Committee Pre-
dicted 4O5 Electoral Votes
for Hughes in 1916; He
Received 254
CHAIRMAN HAYS SAYS
HARDING TO HAVE 1896
CONCEDES ONLY EIGHT En-
IRENE SOUTHERN STATES
TO DEMOCRATIC TICKET
IN NOVEMBER

New York. Oct 2ss--The total OF
3sJ electoral votes, which Will IL.
Hays, chairman of the Republican ma
tional committee, predicts will be cast
for Senator Harding, Is just ten votes
less than the 405 which Republican
managers claimed, two weeks before
the 1916 election, for their candidate,
Chas. f. Hughes. When the returns
We're counted Hughes actually received
254 electoral votes, and Woodrow
Wilson was elected.
Just before the 1916 election William
r. wilcox, chairman of the Repub-
lican national committee, predicted
a Republican landslide.
THE people," he said, "have made
up their minds in favor Of Mr.. Hughes
and that is all there is to it."
Among the states which he claimed
with the utmost assurance. would give
large Republican majorities were Cali
fornla (went Democratic by 3,S00):
Kansas (went Democratic by 36, ,90o);
and Ohio (went Democratic by S9,5OO.)
California, Mr. Wilcox asserted, would
go Republican by 25o.OO0 citing the
fact, as evidence that 307,79s Re-
publicans had voted in the state pre-
mary and only 1880 Democrats.
States Claimed for Hughes
Charles W. Farnham, campaign tour
manager for Hughes, reported to the
| Republican national committee on
October IS. 1916, that Hughes was as
sured OF 300 electoral votes and, prob
ably. l05 more. Among the states
which he predicted would certainly
be carried by Hughes were Delaware.
Ohio, California, Kansas. North Da-
iota, Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and
| Washington, every one Of which
went Democratic, and In the probably
forHughes' column he placed Arizona.
Nevada, Montana, New Mexico. and
Nebraska, all of which were carried
by Ir, Wilson. In the possibly for
Hughes" column Mr.. Farnham placed
Colorado, Kentucky, Maryland. Misso-
uri and Oklahoma. all OF which re-
turned substantial Democratic ma
jorites.
The late George W Perkins. another
Republican campaign leader, was 50
confident OF the election of Hughes
that he said; This election was over
so days ago, when the returns from
Maine came In. The whole issue was
fought out there" and Myron Il.
Horrick said. in claiming Ohio for
Hughes "Ohio often goes wrong. but
Invariably ends right an assertion
which was borne out when the Buck
eye state went Democratic by $4,000.
| Hays Prediction
Mr.. Hays declares that in Novem-
Der the Republicans will carry all
o; the New England states, New York.
New Jersey. Pennsylvania, Delaware.
Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, Mich
igan, Indiana, kentucky, Wisconsin,
Illinois. everything west of the Miss
sslppi, except Arkansas, Louisiana,
and Texas. and they have n splendid
chance to carry Tennessee and North
Carolina He thus grnciously comedies
South Carolina, Florida. Georgia, Ala
bama, Mississippi. Arkansas, Texas
and Louisiana to the Democrats. Even
these, however, are more than the two
states. Utah and Vermont which the
Republicans succeeded in carrying in
1912.
