ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT
HOUSE, Va, November with the
heaviest vote in the history of the county
marking the elimination of bitter
campaign, Hoover swamped Smith for
the presidency with 5,O86 to 1882 votes,
leading in every precinct.
Polls were jammed with a steady
stream of voters. The totals do not
show the complete vote, as nearly 1000
ballots we're cast out because of i'm
proper scratching, according to officials
at Republican headquarters.
Indications during the early after
noon that hundreds would be denied
opportunity to vote because of the Vir-
ginia law, which holds that a voter
must have his ballot in hand at closing,
were dissipated when election officials
took effective steps to speed up the
balloting.
In Clarendon, where the congestion
was seen at its worst, Claude Thomas,
clerk of elections, took charge per-
sonally of the booth in that town to
make sure that all voters got through
before the polls closed. In Del Ray
precinct the addition OF an extra clerk
and two extra booths soon cleared up
the crowds which had threatened to
jam the polling place at closing time.
The new registration regulations
proved factor which complicated the
work of the election officials. Hereto
fore, the tax lists have been used, but
this year registration books were used.
and in scores of cases. lines were held up
as long as 10 minutes while an election
official sought the name of would-be
voters in the lists.
The vote by precincts follows: Lyon
Park, Smith, 107; Hoover, 318; Ballstoh,
Smith, 180; Hoover, $40; Falls Church,

ity of 44,041, in total poll of SAB, lit,

Where Carnegie Got Idea.

When the remarkable museum in
memory of Andrew Carnegie was opened
recently near the humble cottage at
Dumferline, Scotland, where he was

ton of books of the late Col. Huderson

Gently Planning Cal Coolidge

Considerable irritation felt in financial circles the
reaction of the stock exchange to Coodge recent optimistic
statement regarding the nvinbty of brokers' loans The
steadily declining stock market suddenly reacted this statement
of the president and stocks rapidly for day. But Tuesday
brought such precpate decline that of the socaed sta
BILE stocks hit low levels before the market closed confusion
bordering panic
This performance too much for the financial experts who
contribute to the Wall Street publications and they vent
ing their Indignation by gently panning Coolidge Especially
the comment yesterday morning of the Journal of
Commerce which said:
the market The other day Presidential
invade speculative There
advsed statement
which, though exalted, could this
regarded authoritative coercive'
objections heard from financial quarters when the
puppe Wall Street president at Washington and his cabinet
especially the secretaries of the treasury and
dstor statistics to pepetuate the illusion of Coolidge
prosperity"
But when deliberate of economic facts for political
purposes unhealthy of speculative buying the
that must inevitably be followed by
becomes for the official and semofcial
organs Wall reprimand their office the
House when his prosperity twadde affects the
speculative buying the stock market 1t is all right
fool the but he must learn that it is
the tasks OF ackey comment upon the private affairs of his
superiors.

We Have Done Well : We Must Do Better

arising out Of the financial difficult
ties make it hard to carry out many
necessary improvements.
Comrades, let us now on the Fourth
Anniversary of The DAILY WORK
Err resolve that we will do everything
possible to improve The DAILY
WORKER, to make it secure finan-
cially, to spread it among the masses
by securing subs and by selling it to
our shop-mates, friends and to all
workers that we come in contact with.
Let US begin campaign for 10000
new readers, lasting from the Lenin
Memorial to the Ruthenberg Mem
orial. Let every member consider it
as principal Party task in the next
two months to secure reader for
The DAILY WORKER. If we will
do these things we will be able to
record a greater influence of the Par
ty in the next anniversary of The
DAILY WORKER that will be re-
Elected in the security and influence
of our central organ.

the resolution of every Party mem
Der to redouble and treble his efforts
in behalf of The DAILY WORKER in
the coming year.
Our Party leading committees must
pay more attention to The DAILY
WORKER. When district DAILY
WORKER agents or city DAILY
WORKER agents are appointed, they
must be looked upon as functionaries
of the first Importance, and not be
treated in a secondary manner. They
must be given every possible assis-
lance.
The DAILY WORKER agents in
the nuclei must receive the full CO.
operation of every leading committee
and of every Party member. Too
long have we had the opinion that The
DAILY WORKER agent must him
self carry out the work of securing
subs, Of distributing The DAILY
WORKER, etc. This must be coun-
ter-acted and every member must be
told that The DAILY WORKER
