explain some of the things you

Mr.. and Mrs. Collins have
just recently married. He was a
widower with the worst little boy
you ever saw. Mrs. Collins is one
of those motherly souls who can't
let anything 60 hungry. Stray cat
tramp or whatever it is, it gets
fed if it goes to her. She hasn't
said anything about it. But we all
think that her real reason for fix
ing up her kitchen is to get hold
Of that boy. Her theory seems to
be that if she can make him COM
Portable and feed him properly.

SUREOF MASS,
BUT ARE BUSY
Leaders in Both Camps
Ready to Show How
They Win But Don't
Fail to Work
BY BYRON PRICE
Associated Press staff Writer.

BOSTON, Oct. 30.-(R-The final
week of the presidential campaign
finds both republicans and democrats
proclaiming their faith in Massachu-
sets, but taking no chances.
On either side there are expert
enced leaders who profess to see def
init trends, ach toward his own tick
ct. Smith and Hoover headquarters
alike offer to exhibit to the inquirer
gratifying reports from enthusiastic
workers down the line. But when ii
comes to the question Of a detailed
and inclusive analysis Of the state
situation as a whole, the calculation
becomes entangled in a snarl Of con-
flicting claims.
1t can be said, however. that no
where on this debated North Atlantic
s~eaboard, even in New York state,
have the supporters OF Gov. Smith
made a more spectacular assault on
normal republican pluralities. With
equal assurance it can be said that
this assault has been resisted ag-
gressively and with determination by
the republican organization. To a
degree unmatched in many Of the
other states, the ~actuating human
emotions at work in this Massachu-
sets campaign run deep and strong.
The struggle has been spirited and
%purposeful, and it gives every prom
Use of continuing TO be spirited and
purposeful until the end.
Walsh is Dem Hope
That part of the present political
agitation which lies on the surface
is concerned with prohibition and the
tariff, for this is an industrial state
within its borders. That part which
lies beneath the surface concerns it,
self with religion and with race, for
many groups, of varied racial origin,
have come here through the years to
live side by side with the old hered-
itary stock of New England. Religion
has been debated comparatively lit
tie from the stump, but when the vot-
ers write letters to the editor, many
of them discuss il c~opiously.
Massachusetts has ben almost i'm
pregnably republican in the past,
but SO far rs the record goes the
great consolation and hope Of the
democrats lies in the fact that a
democrat, Senator David i. Walsh.
who also is a Catholic and a wet, has
been repeatedly elected to office
over the most stubborn republican
opposition. Walsh is a candidate for
reelection this year. and is asking
the republicans, who always have
supported him, to vote also for
Smith. Like Smith, he always has
received his greatest support from
the larger cities, with their foreign
colonies, their industrial colonies,
and their wet sentiment.
Record Consoles G.. o. 7.
Officials of the democratic party
IN the state have thrown themselves
into the fight for the national ticket
with a fiery determination.
On the basis of the record. the
great consolation Of the republicans
lies in the regularity with which the

publican ticket nationally. Cleveland
