COOL AS COOLIDGE,
THOUSANDS WATCH
ELECTION RETURNS

Continued from First Page.l
they came in over 10 special tele-
phones installed for the purpose. The
data on senatorial and gubernatorial
inquiries ranged from requests for
polls to the all-important presiden-
tial race.
Crowds Grow Larger.
AS the evening wore on the crowds
downtown became greater and more
demonstrative. At first glance one
was reminded of the recent world
series turnout, except that the carnl-
val spirit that reigned on that occa-
sion was lacking almost entirely to-
night. Nearly every one seemed to
have taken to heart the exhortatlons
of the candidates themselves that the
public regard the election as SOL
emn rite under the Constitution.
The solemnity of the occasion rest
ed rather lightly, however, on many
of the younger citizens. and while
their elders bent forward in eager
ness at the bulletin boards. youth pa
raded itself in joyous fashion along
the Avenue, F street and Ninth street
There were q few noiSe-makerS, some
confetti throwing and a small amount
of "stuntins."
One group of college boys marched
down f street carrying armfuls of
straw and with patches of il pro-
truding from their pockets. They an
nounced to the world that they were
collecting the straw vote.
Motorists who ventured downtown
soon found themselves diverted into
various side streets away from the
heart of the throngS. Several auto
mobiles bore Coolidge or Davis ban
that was not necessary.
Hotel Lobbies Enpty.
BY II o'clock public places where
no facilities for announcing the re-
turne were provided were virtually
deserted. Hotel Hobbies devoid of such
attractions had no loungers nor the
familiar groups of chatters. Sudden
increments to the fast growing masses
in front of the newspaper offices
were noticed as movies and theaters
emptied their audiences toward mid
night.
AS the ebb and flow of the reports
piling up became more apparent to
the watchers, there was a marked
break in the tension of the assem-
blages. Coolidge rooters began to
arouse themselves from their state
of apathy, and this activity in the
enemy camp had a livening effect
also on the Davis and La Toilette
cohorts. There still were no cases of
acute frenzy, however.
Clubs Get Returns-
At Republican and Democratic ma
tional headquarters here special re-
ception arrangements had been made.
Both offices kept tab on the swing
of the balloting by special wires to
their respective central headquarters
and by press and telegraph reports.
Radio loudspeakers also were pressed
into service. Workers, their families
and friends formed the audiences.
Similarly. at purely local political
meetings the returns were received by
various agencies. The local Republican
organization staged a reutrns party at
it's headquarters on New York avenue,
with Samuel J. Prescott, chairman of
the Republican State committee of the
District, in charge of the program. A
leased wire to the national committee
in Chicago, the Western Union service
and radio facilities were provided
The three leading Democratic clubs
Of Washington watched the progress of
the Democratic vote at special meetings.

HOUSE WILL REMAIN
SAFELY REPUBLICAN

The. House will remain safely Re-
publican in the new Sixty ninth Con-
gress. This was assured early to-
night when the strong drift to Cool
idge became evident. Coolidge will
pull along with him a number of
Republican members
While the early returns showed six
solid Democratic States, Georgia,
Louisiana. Mississippi. South Caro-
lima, Alabama and Arkansas, they
were for the most part states which
always go Democratic and in which
there were few seats contested.
There were no serious upsets in
the early returns. As far as definite
Information was received from Con-
gressiona1 districts in which there
was a contest the result was invari-
ably the return of a sitting member.

reason for the rapidly of the sales

house until December 90, 1928, ana
spent $500 for additional furnish

Cities had not been laid out with a
thought of their possibilities of
future growth which surpassed all
predictions. City planning was
found to be good business, and on
this ground 1t won recognition.
To-day it is recognized for Its
aesthetic. social, spiritual, and
economic approaches, and the en-
deavor is to give these in their
proper proportion in the result.
But l still think the primary APP
proach is economic, and to make
city more livable. The economic
phase covers such problems as
traffic congestion, passenger and
trade terminals, extension of troll
ley car lines, terminal freight
yards, belt lines, the, location and
development of water routes, along
with that of looming to have the
city developed In an economic
way. And along with this while
making a practical solution Is
the question, "How can we make
the city orderly and attractive"

course, are being worked upon by

however not associated with the

are particularly active in making

This condition is of increasing i'm
