Careful observers are generally
agreed that the illusions which the
masses still have concerning the
connection between so-called pros
perity and the republican regime
was in the main responsible for the
republican victory. The Smith vic
tory in the textile sections and in
the large cities, such as Chicago and
New York, seem to bear out this
general view.
That the illusion of prosperity
which the republicans and the big
business interests are SO carefully
fostering will be severely shaken
during the coming four years seems
certain in view of the crises in the
mining, the textile, the farm areas
and among many other sections of
the working class. The process of
efficiency" capitalism while h
Hoover stands for, resulting 'in an
increasing Unemployment of work
ers, as well as many other contra
6ictions, resulting from the very
prosperity of American capital
ism, indicate that the course of
Hoover's promised prosperity
regime will not be rs smooth as the
huge vote might lead one to sup
pose.

Everyone has for many years
patiently supported the Intervention

American neighbor, and found some
relief in the hope of possible
change in it's administration. Until
now, we have always had the i'm

for Hutchins, the socialist party
candidate. Other candidates on the
Red ticket received on an average
about 500 votes each.
Election officials announced the
vote for Foster and Gitlow as 121,
a manifestly improbable loss IN
view of the fact that all evidence
shows that very few of those work
ers who vote split their ballot.
Confirmation of the steal put over
by the capitalist election officials is
had in the testimony of Harry
Izwick, a Communist election watch
er, who reports that in the polling
place in which he was stationed the
votes were counted on three sepa-
rate tables. He was able to check
the count on only one table which
contained 9 votes for the Red can
didates. Other 81 milar testj-
nony is being gathered by the local
Communist workers. New Bedford
papers Tuesday evening reported
the incomplete vote for Foster and
Gitlow at IA votes. Equally sig
nificGnt is an editorial in the Eve
ming Standard of Wednesday which,
in commenting on the Communist
election returns, bears evidence of
the efforts made by the bosses to
make the Communist vote appear
small.
Other votes thus far reported
from New Bedford show: Albert
Oddie, Communist candidate for
state treasurer, 472 as against 1853
for the socialist party candidate.
Chester w. Bixby, Red candidate for
governor, received 273 votes; Eva
Hoffman, running for auditor, re-
ceived 472. The Communist vote in
New Bedford in 1924 for Foster and
Gitlow was a.
Steel Bosses Steal Votes.
No less fragrant was the steal of
Red votes in Canton, Ohio, by the
orders of the steel bosses who have
been enraged over the activities of
the Workers Party in the recent
strike in which it actively supported
the steel slaves. Six Communist
election watchers reported 80 Com
munist votes in the six precincts
in which they were stationed. With
229 election precincts in the city,
the officials set the total Commu-
mist vot efor the city at IS for Fos-
ter and Gitlow and Sd for the can
didate for governor.
Reports from Stamford, Conn.,,
show that the Communist vote for
every candidate was exactly SO as
against an average of 10 for the
socialist party. Incomplete returns
from Rhode Island with only few
districts reporting show total thus
far of 146 votes for Foster and Git
low, 143 votes for J. P. Reid, can
didate for U. S. senator and 121
votes for Theinert, candidate for
governor.
Reports from Bridgeport, Conn,
show vote for Foster and Gitlow,

WORK OF
THE 'KRASSIN" CREW

MOSCOW (By MaiD i'm con-
versation with representatives of the
Soviet press, Professor Samoilovitch,
chief of the polar expedition on the
icebreaker "Krassin," speaking on
the results of scientific work of the
expedition, said the following:
During the whole voyage of
"Krassin" meteorological observa-
tons together with meteorological
summaries of European geophysical
observatories received by "Kras-
sin" by radio were put as the basis
of synoptical maps prepared during
the journey. This work permitted
to foresee the weather which was
very important for the airplane's
work. In view of the fact that the
state of ices in the polar region de-
ponds to a great extent on the wind
the weather was very important for
the ship herself.
Scientific Observations.
"The studying of Neurological
state of waters in the north sea
which was made during the voyage
is of highly serious scientific in
terest. AS at first "Krassin" was
hurrying as rapidly as possible in
order to help the suffering Italians
the vessel could not be detained to
carry on hydraulic work. Only
when the Italians were safely taken
aboard, the geophysicist of the ex-
petition made four hydraulic OBJ
servations between the Charles Is
land and the Seven Islands group;
afterwards four new observations
were made west of the group be-
tween these islands and the line
going up north from the western
shore of Spitzbergen.
During the second voyage of
"Krassin" "a hydraulic observation
was made from the Nord-Cape up
to 81 AT northern latitude. Until
then no hydraulic observations were
ever carried out by anybody so far
north in this region.
"When "Krassin" left from this
point eastwards all the time on the
way the ship stopped to make OBJ
servations. Altogether 81 hydraulic
observations were made.
"The voyage of 'Krassin,' which
draws 80 feet in water, was ex-
tremely difficult without any infor-
nation concerning the navigation in
this region.
mo measurement of the depth
was ever made here before. Now
when results of the measurement
are put on the map the future ex-
plorers will find their task much
easier.
Geological Researches.
when 'Krassin' was staying near
the place where the airplane of
Chukhnovsky met with an accident
the geological party consisting of
Professor Samoilovitch and his as
sistant Ivanov, carried out geologi-
cal Investigations on the shore.
Here it was found that the ground
consisted of most ancient strata of
sand stones and schists without any
trace of organic remnants. The line
of the ancient sea-surf was found
by Samoilovitch as well as by Nor
wegian Professor Cullen, who was
on 'Krassin,' at the height of 300
meters. Here was collected a great
quantity of interesting geological
materials because this place was
never visited by any geologist be-
fore.

Governors viii Observe His

MEXICO CITY. September GA ma
jority of the military governors who
lunched with President Gales yesterday
have decided to make the policies which
the President set forth in his message tc
Congress their own.
The military governors had been sum-
moned to Mexico City to hear the mes
sage, in which Gales announced he had
no intention of holding office when his
term was completed and appealed to
the army to support the constitutional
government.
There had been speculation in politi-
cal circles as to what bearing the
luncheon given the officers and Secre-
tarv of War Amaro had on the question
of the selection of a provisional Press
dent. It was learned today that the de-
cision to support the Gales policy was
reached after an exchange of opinions
on the political situation at the lunch
con.
The hope was expressed by the army
men that sound principles might inspire
Congress in the appointment of the pro-
visional head Of the nation.
A trip that Dwight w. Morrow, Ameri-
can Ambassador. is to take with Gov.

as political capital by those who hope
to see the governor made provisional
President. They say the trip, which
will be to a ranch near the Texas border
owned by Hal Mangum, an American,
is evidence of close friendship and even
of Mr. Norrow's Endorsement of Ire
who's candidacy.
Others point out that the Ambassador
accepted the invitation to the ranch be-
fore President-elect Obregon was assas-
sinated and that it would be natural for
him to meet the governor of Coahuiia
while in that state.

By the Associated Press.
The right of this Government to
seize foreign vessels outside the 3-mile
limit when their manifest showed they
were destined for foreign port and
there was no evidence of contact es-
tablished with the shore was questioned
In the Supreme Court yesterday in ad-
ditional briefs filed in three big liquor
cases from New York City brought by
the French auxiliary schooner Mistin-
guette and the British auxiliary schoon-
er Rosie M. B.
The briefs directed the courts atten-
ton to a recent decision of the Federal
District Court at Boston in the case Of
the auxiliary schooner Sylvia II, hold
ing that the Federal Government did
not have the right to seize vessels con-
tanning liquor cargoes when the vessels
we're not bound for the United States,
This decision was rendered, the briefs
added, even though the evidence showed
1t was intended to transfer liquor cargo
at point 20 miles off shore to boats
coming from the shore
The New York lower court, however.
had held that the Government had the
right. and this conflict In decisions was
emphasized in the briefs as requiring a
review of the controversy by the Su-
preme Court.

One objection to shortening Christmas to Xmas is
the pitall Of pronunciation. With the of the brief
form has grown tendency to read it "Exmas,"

quite open the criticism of it which clergymen and
others have expressed

Chi The letter X, the English equivalent of chi, mean
ing Christ has the sanction of ancient usage unques-
tionably.
Dictionaries and encyclopedias include Xmas among
the authorizations Of recognized standing, also Xn for
Christian. They do not stigmatize it collcGual
vulgar. STILL there is feeling for words that r1pes
most persons with verbal conscience to spell Christ
mas out in full. To many Christmas is beautiful
word, while Xmas is not.
