La Cuardia's Seat i'm
House to Stay Vacant
Governor Against Calling Spe-
cial Election TO Fill
Two Vacancies
STAFF CORRESPONDENCE

St0g correspondence
ALBANY, Jan. 16.-Governor Smith
said to-day that he does not expect to
call special elections in New York City
to fill the places in the House of Repre-
sentatives of Fiorello H. La Guardia,
now President of the New York Board
of Aldermen, and R. Haskell. who was
chosen Kings County Judge at the last
election.
Neither the Republican nor Demo
cratic leaders have asked him to call
such elections. The Governor believes
the expense unnecessary, as the result
could not influence the dominant Re
publican majority" in the House OF
representatives..
Governor Smith expressed the
opinion that if a special election were
called Democrat would be chosen to
succeed La Guardia, while a Republi-
can would succeed Haskell Ye at
tributes this to the effective Demo-
cratic organization in Manhattan
The voters of other parties" he
said, feel their civic responsibilities
at general elections, but are not moved
to go to the. polls at special elections.
As look over the State, as Demo
crat, am glad that the Democratic
party is we'll organized in at least one
section. There is certainly room for
Improvement in the Democratic or
ganization in the rest Of the State"
