ROOSEVELT HAS
WIDE LEAD FOR
AL SMITHS JOB
Election Indicated With
10000 Margin in
Governor Race.
By United Press

By United Press
ALBANY, Nov. Election of
Franklin D. Roosevelt, Democratic
gubernatorial nominee, was indi-
Gated in returns received and COM
piled here shortly before noon to-
day.
With 376 districts missing, all up
state, Roosevelt nae a 1eaG OF more
than seventy thousand majority.
The missing districts will undoubt-
edly cut into this lead to some ex-
tent, but it does not seem possible
that it can be overcome, as the re-
naming districts are all lightly
populated.
The total vote stood:
Roosevelt, 2,078,078.
Ottinger, 2,0O0,9
The Roosevelt majority may drop
to as low as 10000, as the districts
now reporting from the rural sec
tons are averaging a little better
than a fifty-two Republican ma
jority.
The returns on the senatorial
race are slow. Royal S. Copeland,
the Democratic incumbent, appears
to have a safe lead, however, over
Alanson B. Houghton.

CAY BROADWAY
CALLED UCLIEST
STREET IN U. S.
Beauty Crusader Says
Lurid Thoroughfare
GroteSque.

By Times Special
NEW YORK, Nov THE most
famous street in America is also
the ugliest!
That is New York's light-Spangled
Broadway as Harlean James, the
country's foremost crusader for
civic beauty, sees it.
Buildings of all shapes and
sizes, plastered with tiers of lurid
billboards serve as mere racks fo:-
ridiculous caricatureS and a rest
less, garish succession of legends
worked out in flashing lights. This
prostitution of the use of electricity
seems appalling"
Outlaw GrOtesque Ugliness
Such is the picture sketched by
Miss James, executive secretary of
the American Civic Association, in
an article, "Our Revolt Against Ug-
liness," published in the current Re-
View Oh fC6Vl6Ws.
But such grotesque creations will
be outlawed within few years, and
so will our practice of crowding
skyscrapers together, plastering the
roadsides with billboards and dis
figuring city streets with gasoline
stations and garish signs, she pre-
diets.
BY 1850 an architectural commits
sion, with power to control the size,
location, height and style of build
ings, will be an accepted part of the
government of ever progressive city,
Miss James prophesies.
Business men who a few years
pack opposed all building retrictions
are now beginning to realize that
beauty has a distinct commercial
value, that congestion of large build
lngs is expensive and that ugly and
inharnonious surroundings decrease
the desirability of their property, she
says.
DecentraIize Shopping
1.-THE automobile has made pos
sible the cosmopolitan education of
the people to the value of beauty, -
says the Review of Reviews article.
people become so accustomed to
their surroundings that they fail to
notice them. But after visiting other
towns and seeing other homes, other
buildings, other streets and other
uses for trees and grass, they come
home with new eyes,"
The American city of the future,
as Miss James sees it, will have
eliminated the solid masses of soar
ing buildings cut by narrow streets,
with little access to light and air.
Many industries will have been re-
moved from congeSted districts to
outlying towns. Residential dis
tricts will have decentralized shop
ping and marketing centers located
in well-designed buildings sur
rounded by trees and adequate park
ing areas"

Lad, g, Escapes Death by
Drowning After Fall
Into Water.

Clifford Stack now is a hero
among his playmates. He saved mis-
9-year-old brother from drowning
in an old we'll filled with about eight
feet of water, Tuesday.
Clifford was going after his pa
pers from school. He cut across an
empty lot about a square north
from his home at GIG Merrill street
where a bunch of the gang" were
playing. AS he approached them
his brother Roy leaned on some
boards covering the we'll, the boards
gave way, and Roy fell in. The
other boys we're panic-stricken and
ran away.
Clifford ran up and by leaning
down into the we'll managed tc
grab his brother by the shoulders
and drag him out, although Roy is
only few inches shorter than he
is and weighs nearly as much.
Clifford and Roy both attend
School 25 where Clifford is in the
"A and Roy in the 2B grade.

WHALING FLEET
LEAVES TO Get
i WINTER CATCH
Season Reaches Height on
Christmas; 5000 Men
at Work.

NEW YORK, Nov. THE Whal-
ing season has opened in the Anti
arctic.
Some weeks ago a fleet of Nor
wegian whalers began leaving their
home ports on the long voyage to
their hunting grounds.
1t is estimated that this year about
twenty-siX reflneries or floating fac
tories, three transport ships and
something like eighty-fiye whaling
vessels will be engaged in the chase.
The vessels carry total of about
5000 men--m mostly Norwegians, with
a sprinkling Of Swedish engineers
to handle the "separators" in the
holds of the floating ref. ries.
The whaling season in the Ant
arctic, the last of the virgin fields,
may begin as early as october and
continues for three or four months,
reaching its height about Christmas
time.
During the Antarctic winter, Ice
locked seas and fierce storms make
whaling practically impossible. At
this season moreover, our summer
months, the whale migrate toward
the equator for breeding.
Unusual success during the
1929 season has stimulated the
whaling interests to even greater &C
tivity. The Anglo Morse, one of the
largest Norwegian vessels, returned
with $4,000 barrels of oil taken from
473 whales.
The G. A. Larsen brought $4,000
barrels. One giant blue whale cap
tured measured lis feet, and an
other LOG feet.

MARK HANNA'S
DAUGHTER Wins
CONGRESS RACE
Mrs. Mccormick Defeats
Two Democrats in Illinois
BaIIoting.

By United Press
CHICAGO, Nov. IA daughter
of Mark Hanna will sit in the sew
enty-f1rst congress.
Mrs. Ruth Hanna Mccormick,
Rockford publisher, and widow of
Senator Medill Mccormick, was
elected congreSsman-at-large from
Illinois in Tuesdays election, de-
feating two Democrats.
She received her training in poll
tics campaigning with her father
many years ago, and in her fight
for victory in her own right she
stumped almost every city and town
in Illinois.
Mrs. Mccormick announced her
candidacy more than a year ago,
when she paraphrased President
Coolidge with the statement, Il
choose. to run for congressman-at-
large from Illinois"
In Tuesdays election the daugh-
ter of the late Ohio political boss
headed a list of successful women
candidates in Illinois. Four Repub-
1ican women and one Democrat were
elected to the house of represent
atives of the state legislature.
Two women and twenty men con-
tested for a vacancy in the Chicago
municipal court, and both women
lost.
In the state election, Mrs. Mary
E. Busey was elected a trustee Of
the University of Illinois.
In Chicago an unusually large
number of women voters turned out,
i. but election officials said they could
make no accurate estimate of the
number, which was obviously larger
than ever before.

Warn Against Fraud

NEW YORK, Nov. IA warning
that any attempt at fraud in the
close election for Governor of New
York state would be met vigorously
was issued early today by the cam
paign committee for Franklin d.
Roosevelt, Democratic nominee.
Slowness of returns from about
900 election districts in the north
ern part of the state had led the
committee to suspect fraud might
be attempted if the result were
close.
The committee issued a statement
saying Edward Dore, chairman of
the law committee of the Demo-
cratic state committee, would be
sent upstate with 100 lawyers to
guard against possible fraud.
