Samuel Untermyer, speaking last
night to 1000 persons at Erasmus Hall

Gov. Miller's opposition to a welfare
program which would include old age

Governor on all of these propositions.
II love and admire AL Smith," said
Mr.. Untermyer, mot because every

Mr.. Untermyer challenged Gov. Mil

tive traction plan submitted by the
Transit Commission is sound and just,
and whether it assures the people a 8
cent fare.
He said he believed that even the

Hylan administration was better than

drawn up by the Transit Commission.
He said he believed the commission

Urge District Captains to
Get Clean Sweep.
SURE OF SMITH VICTORY
Whisperers Begin to Say Plu-
rality Will Be More Than
Hylan's Last Year.

= Charles +. Murphy has broken his
inner room in Fourteenth street and
sent confidential letter yesterday to
the Tammany district captains urging
them to dig in hard to elect a
Democratic Legislature.
The chief sees g rainbow ahead on
election day. 1t looks to him like
Smith landslide. "An unprecedented
Democratic victory" the chic. says. He
looks for even a bigger plurality than
the record made for Mayor Hylan last
year.
John Fl. McCooey, Tammany leader In
Brooklyn. taking the tip from Murphy,
also Is making rosy predictions. He
says Smith will have a better plurality
than Hyian's last-131 1884 in Kings. The
Republican leaders in Brooklyn say that
this is wild talk and credit Smith wit Il
about $4,000 to 10000 in their borough.
Tammany men have not gone into
figures. They are giving pluralities for
the city for publication but in their
usual confidential way are telling any
one who is likely to spread the report
far and wide that the INSIDE figure

the campaign, always effective in start
ing a stampede.
Mr.. Murphy is so certain OF the out
come that he advises his captains and
workers. to bend their efforts to making
it a clean sweep for the whole State
ticket. His departure from his studied
silence of former years Is expressed In
this letter to the committee members:
Reports from upstate regarding the
prospects for the election OF Gov. Smith
and the entire Democratic ticket could
scarcely be better. In every section OF
the State he has been greeted by I'M
mense audiences. and the enthusiasm
displayed foreshadows an unprecedented
Democratic victory.
1T Is earnestly hoped that Gov.
Smith shall have back Of him in Albany
Democratic Senate and Assembly.
which will work in harmony with him
and assist him in carrying out the
pledges Of the Democratic platform.
"You are urged to use every effort
to bring about the desired result. Much
depends upon the last week-of the cam
paign in this country. Nothing should
be taken for granted. See that the
registered voters In your district vote.
See that your neighbors as intensely
interested In home rule a ou are your
self. come out and vote Work from
now until the polls clos so that the
entire State and county ticket may b.
elected by the largest majority ever
given Democratic nominees in this
county.
Remember there is alwcys a vote to
be had IL you seek it. Don't let some
