ODDS ON HARDING
Of 10 TO | FAIL TO
BRING OUT MONEY
Democrats Low in Spirits,
But Hope for Best in
New York City.
BY N. O. MESSENGER.

NEW YORK, November 2.-There
was a big upturn in the election bet
ting last night and today, with the
odds 10 to 1 on Harding and demo-
cratic money very scarce. Plenty Of
republican money was in evidence.
It was wonderful what a notable in
crease has been witnessed in the re-
vival Of republican confidence in the
past two days. 1t was observable
everywhere, denoted in the CONVERSE
tions one heard all about him.
The democrats for their part, were
very low in spirits, just hoping for
the best and that was about all. They
had no hope about this state. for it is
conceded to the republicans, the only
question being whether the republican
plurality is to be moderate or gigantic.
Hope Lies In West.
The hope Of the national democratic
managers lies in the west, with possi-
BILE surprises in the league Of nations
states. Former Secretary McAdoo
came back with reports that the west
is for the league and may repeat the
surprise" on the republicans Of four
years ago.
Republican managers say that the
surprise the democrats are going to
get will be in the republican vote in
border states and in some of the
democratic states of the west.
If it is a nationwide landslide the
approximate result ought to be known
by 10 o'clock tonight through the
method of figuring on averages in
comparison with the last election.
The results Of the gubernatorial cleo
tion in this state ought to be forecast
by the tabulations up to 1880.
Ohio May Report Tonight.
The Ohio presidential election should
be indicated by the returns from
Toledo and Cincinnati early
tonight, unless the result has been ex-
ceedingly close. If Cleveland shows
marked contrast with the returns Of
four years ago, it will point to the re-
suit for the state.
1t is thought doubtful whether the
Senate tabulation will be available
before tomorrow.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, November q
Posses Of the police and sheriff's forces

munity and other parts of the county,

close watch during last night for any
new arson cases. They did not report
any new cases of home or gin burnings

Officials here believe that with the
killing of Warren Taylor, negro late

band, which they believe has been burn
ing property, has been dispatched. He
was killed twenty miles south of here
while he was about to be placed in an
automobile to be brought here for ex-
animation
He was shot to death by officers after
he had seized large pistol from the
seat of the automobile of the officers
and emptied it at the men, shooting a
button from Policeman Avant's coat.
A report was received here last night
that threat had been made that
Ramer. twenty-six miles south of here,
would be burned during the night A

disturbance was reported early today
The sheriff and a party also made a
trip to a church in the Dublin communi-

at church and signal flashes were seen.
Nothing serious developed. Fifteen
negroes are in Jail here charged with
arson or participating in the burnings of
q dozen or more buildings. gin houses, a
store. a sawmill and cabins Officers
expressed the belief today that the worst
Of the epidemic Of burnings was past
and that the total damage was about
100000 and three negroes killed.

TRAFFIC BY SCHOOL
ENDANCERS PUPILS
Most Essential Need of
Slater-Langston Is Ade-
quate Playground.

Adequate playground space for 734
children attending the Slater-Lang-
ston School is among the most essen
tial Of needs of this institution. Like
many other schools, the Slater-Lang-
ston is overcrowded, but this factor
is overlooked in this case by the
school officials when play space is
concerned
Teachers at the Slater-Langston
School complain to authorities almost
daily about the lack of playground
space for their children, whose lives,
they say, are endangered. due to heavy
vehicular traffic in front of the build
ing. The school has little play space,
in no way sufficient for the heavy en-
rollment. and there is no municipal
playground nearby for the children to
use. Consequently many pupils are
forced to play in the streets, putting
their lives in jeopardy. The teachers
say they always are on the alert to
prevent the children from being in
jured.
The Slater-Langston. is a group
school located on P street between
North Capitol and 1St streets. Each of
the buildings. which are close to each
other, has eight rooms, making a to-
tai of sixteen classrooms. There are
nineteen classes at the school today,
with an enrolment totaling 734. An
increase in registration is expected
with the beginning of the next semes-
ter. February 1.
With an enrolment larger than
could be comfortably accommodated.
relief measures had to be taken. The
two third d-grade classes were put on
a part-time system. ore class attend
ing in the morning al d the other in
the afternoon. If the registration in
creases in the near future. it is be-
lieved. other classes will be forced to
operate on two-shift system. Many
of the classes, due to congestion, have
enrolment above forty pupils, the
maximum stipulated by school author
tiles. One class has forty-seven pupils.
Among other improvements neces-
sary at this school are proper light
ing facilities, new drinking foun-
tains, and an overhauling of the
heating plant at the Langston build
ing. Lights are only in the principal
rooms and the basement in each of
the buildings. Teachers at the school
state that the heating plant in the
Langston building needs improving.
Easements in both of the buildings
are damp, due to the condition Of the
yards surrounding the structures.
School authorities have recommended
that the grounds be regarded to cor
rect this condition.
