THE NATION SPEAKING
 COLLECTIVE MIND TO-DAY
(By Byron Price, 4. P. Staff

(By Byron Price, 4. P Staff)
 SEATTLE. Nov. 6. (P - Glori- fed in the full power of their sov- ereignty the nations voters are speaking their collective mind to- day in an election which will es- tablfsh new administration at Washington to determine the poli- tics of the next Congress. and be- ! stow the governorship in more than two thirds of the States.
 In every political publication in the country all roads lead to the polling places. With more than forty million on the registration books all signs pointed to the pyra- miding of record-brcaking vote before the close of the polls. Women in unnumbered thousa nds are counted among those who for the first time have answered the call of the franchise.
 Prompted by experience and mind full of the explosive issues which have gone into the ma king of the campaign, election ofiicials, citizens, and committees in several States took extraordinary precautions to police the polls.
 The Texas Rangers were sent to preserve peace in one of the pos- sfble trouble sections near the Mexican Border and in Chicago ff- teen thousand watchers were de- tailed to stations and voting plac- es, and fair watch is reported over most of the country.

 had either toppled into the Repub- lican column or were showing d substantial evidence of doing so.
 All of his calculations of victory crushed under the avalanch, Smith conceded the election to his oppon- ent, long before the compilation of the record breaking vote had even neared its completion.
 His. own State-New York-the cornerstone of his hopes, turned against him and gave it's great
 block of forty-fve Electoral votes to Hoover.
 At least two Southern States Virginia and Florida are going Re
 publican for the first time since the Civil War, while in Texas and North Carolina, as well, the count covered appeared to be at the dan ger-line.
 Nor was there any evidence ;n tie returns which piled in over Light that the Democratic crusade ir1o the farm count: woa.d net Smith a single Electoral vote; on the contrary, from the Allegranies to the Rockies the farm States are reporting slowly increasing major- i;ies for Hoover and Curtis.

Even if both these N. z States wind up with Democratic major ity, and Smith held only the Sou thern States in which he has es- tablished a substantial lead-Lou- isiana, Arkansas. Mississippi, Ala bama, Georgia. and South Calolina. Hoover's Electoral Vote would still be "A out of total of 531.
 No such high-water mark has ev- CT been reached in any previous Presidential election.

Even in 1912 when the RepEb- lican strength was split between
 William Howard Taft and Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson had only 435 Electoral Votes; Harding had 4O4 in the sweep of 1920. and Coolidge had 3S2 four years ago
 The measure in which the result of the Presidential Election would be reflected in the Congressional and other total contests was not yet fully apparent today as it appeared that there would be Republican gains in both the Senate and the House, but incomplete returns show ed no sweeping overturns.
 The very great prevalence of the split ballot was apparent today in the fact that many of the States which were rolling up big Hoover majorities are still keeping Demo- cratic Governors and Senator's in the lead.
 One of the greatest surprises for the Democrats-and there were many of them in the combined re- turns of the forty-eight States was the strength developed by Hoover in the city contests which Smith had expected to run away with by a majority. On the con- trary, he could not return maior- ity in dozen of the larger cities where he had been accorded re- ception of magnitude difficult to match even in America political history, bat when the test came the city vote did not flock to him as many of his admirers supposed it would
