LINCOLN. Nebr., Oct. 24.-While
Democratic leaders today predicted
that Senator George w. Norris en-
dorscmcnt of Governor Alfred F.
Smith would mean a Democratic
victory in Nebraska, Republicans
claimed the announcement has come
too late in the campaign to win
votes for Smith.
1t was the Republican contention
that a majority of voters already
had decided for whom they will
vote and will not be influenced by
spectacular developments in the close
of the campaign.
But Democrats made forecasts of
victory, claiming as high as 100,-
600 votes plurality to Smith. A
strong Progressive block is sure to
vote for Smith as the result of Nor
ris action, the Democrats contend.

ry in such manner, only the usual

to put him over.
Whether Norris has strength to
Influence so many voters so power
fully is, of course, open to debate.
But the Democrats, including Smith,
had such healthy respect for him
that they bid all along for his back
ing.
Smith started this bid in his ac-
ceptance speech when he praised the
elder LaFollctte and advocated
"progressivcncss' as opposed to
"rcactionary government He has
since stressed in campaign speeches
government ownership and control
of water power, particularly with
reference to Muscle Shoals, thing
for which Norris has fought in the
face Of presidential vctoes.
1t had been forecast that Norris
would support Smith. Senator Blaine
of Wisconsin, one of Norris group,
had done so. Senator Robert La
Toilette, Jr., with fight for re-
election on his hands, had failed to
endorse Herbert Hoover, the Repub-
lican nominee.
Hoover invading New York City
Monday, attacked Smith s proposals
as estate socialism. - In doing so
he afforded strategic moment for
Norris to come to Smith s support.
The announcement of the Pro
gressivc League came while Norris
was in Washington state, campaign
ing for reelection of Senator Dill.
At Tacoma yesterday he said that
Hoover by his position on hydro
electric power had "repudiated' all
the Pr2oressives who had backed
him in the past.
He will make his Saturday night
pro-Smith speech in Omaha, Nebras-
ka, state whose eight electoral
votes might be sorely needed in the
Smith column.
"a nationwide radio hookup over
the Columbia chain has been ar
ranged by the Progressive League
to bring his speech to the millions
of voters who will be interested in
il. - the announcement said. "Sen-
ator Norris will speak from 8 to 8
O'Clock, central time. He will de-
vote his entire speech to a discussion
of the two presidential candidates
on national issues.
Prominent Republicans in Nebras-
ka were said to be cooperating in
arranging the meeting in the audi
torium in Omaha, where the senator
will address "one of the largest
meetings to be held in the west dur
