within 80 days of election day. The
converse of this is that the registrars
may go out and present ballots and
get them signed up by any voters they
may think will not be at home on cleo
ton day. All of the registrars, the
State over, are Democrats. The con-
sequence Is that thousands of Demo-
cratic votes will be signed and dellv-
cred before election day. This Is an
efficient way of getting the vote out.
1t Is commonly credited with having
turned the old ninth district, formerly
represented in the House by Baseom
Slemp and by his father, from the Re-
publican column to the Democratic.
Democratic leaders here express their
confidence that by election day the
State will be safely in the Democratic
column, They admit their usual ma
jority is likely to be cut down consider
ably both by the failure of Democrats
to vote and by Democrats who vote for
Hoover and against Smith. They insist
that the attack upon Gov. Smith on
religious grounds is having boomer
ang effect and that In the State which
wrote into its bill of rights long before
the Constitution of the United States
was adopted the provision now in the
Constitution declaring that there shall
be no religious test for holding office,
tolerance" will prevail.
Republicans frankly fear that in the
end the powerful political machinery
In hands Of the Democrats will defeat
them. They point out that there are
some $4,000 State employees and most of
them are Democrats and are being lined
up for the national ticket, Gov. Byrd,
1t Is said, has won approval by his ad-
mlnistration and hts support is a great
aid to the national ticket,
The NeWs-Leader has started taking
Q poll, canvassing office buildings and
the crowds on street corners. The poll
which has just begun, stood late yes
terday afternoon S71 for Smith to 273
for Hoover.
No one hesitates apparently to talk
ABOUT the religious issue in this State
II has gone far past the whispering
stage. The political correspondent OF
the News-Leader, r, l.. c. Barrett, after
q tWo-week tour of the State, in a
summary Of the situation SAYS in his
newspaper:
everywhere in Virginia the religious
issue Is the dominant note of the cam
palgn. Prohibition Is discussed to some
extent, immigration slightly and farm
relief In the Valley and in the South
west. But the big question is religion,
and it is Al Smiths religious faith
which has raised the big revolt in the
Democratic ranks and, giving aid and
comfort to the Republicans, has placed
virginia in the doubtful column for the
nrSt time in many years."
The probabilities are, however, that
when election day arrives it will be
found that Virginia's IL electoral votes
VIII be cast for Smith and Robinson.

Work in Everglades Retarded. ..
While standing water from the food
conditions that accompanied the hur-
ricane in the Everglades section OF
Florida Is retarding rehabilitation work
the American Red Cross Is planning
to provide truck farmers who lived in
that territory with tents so that they
may occupy their farms as quickly as
possible and begin rebuilding their
homes and planting their lands. The
farmers also will be provided with seed
and fertilizer
A. L. Schafer, director of Red Cross
relief work in Florida. reports that 1t
Is necessary to enable the farmers to
plant as quickly as possible because
OF possible frostS in the near future.
The agricultural experts say that
money crops can be put on the market
In GO days from planting, which will
assure the farmers some income.
In many places in the Everglades all
signs of the farms are gone, even the
houses having disappeared IN the winds
and flood.
Red Cross Aids IL, 500 Families.
In all sections of the Florida disaster
area Red Cross relief work is progress
ing toward rehabilitation. It is esti-
mated that 1880 families are now reg
istered with the Red Cross, but 1t Is
believed this number will undoubtedly
increase. More than 1000 people still
are being fed by the Red Gross.
The needs Of the non-agricultural
group affected by the hurricane, to-
gether with the farming group, which
was exceedingly hard hit, emphasize the
major proportions of the disaster and
the fact that the Red Cross will require
relief fund full to overlooking II those
who suffered are to be cared for prop
erly in the Florida area, In the Virgin
Islands and In Porto Rico.

Music Interferes With
Hearings.

Complaining that the distracting dis
cords Of jazz music from radio loud
speaker across the street seriously in
terfered with the procedure at heat-
ings on patents. eight officials of the
Patent Office testified today in Police
Court against Emanuel NJ Rosensweig
of the Post Radio Co. 8l6 r street,
charged with violation of the police
regulation against making unnecessary
noise.
After hearing all the evidence Judge
Gus A. Schuldt ordered the case con-
tinued for two weeks to give Rosen-
sweig an opportunity to tone down the
loud speaker.
The compliments declared that the
sweet sounds" of the radio had re-
peatedly interrupted conferences and
delayed the serious business of thrash

who testified were First Assistant Com

pionShip under way here, was 5 down
at the halfway point to Jim Barnes
of New York In their first-round match
today. Several other surprises marked
the morning half of the first of the
Sc match play rounds.
Armour outplayed Barnes all the
way from the tee to the green, but
around the green Barnes was his mas
ter. Armour had no fewer than seven
S-putt greens, and normally should
nave been 4 or up on the British
bred golfer from New York.
Armour started by taking three puts
on each of the first three green's At
the 179-yard ninth hole he was on the
green from the tee. but lost the hole
when he took three puts again. He
reached the turn down to the lanky
New Yorker. Tommy's pitch shot at
the tenth hole left him putt of only 8
feet for birdie, which he sank.
But he missed a 5-foot putt for an
other birdie at the eleventh hole which
would have squared the match and lost
the twelfth hole when he again took
three puts. All the holes from the
twelfth to the seventeenth were halved,
but here, as the 155-yard hole, after
getting inside Barnes from the tee,
Tommy again took three puts to Lose
the hole, ...
AS they walked into the clubhouse
Barnes remarked to Armour's wife, 1T
isn't his fault. Mrs. Armour, He played
better golf than did" The score of
the first 10 holes follows.
