HARTFORD, Conn, Oct. g. Democrats in Connecticut are mobilized in an effort to upset the pre-campaign prediction by J. Henry Roraback, Republican National Committeeman and State Chairman. that the State would go Republican by 75,000 if the Democrats nominated "a certain man."
 The certain man" having been nominated in the person of Gov. Alfred E. Smith, his supporters !, in this State are endeavoring to prove correct the counter-claim of their own National Committed man, Thomas J. Spellacy, that Connecticut is noramlly Republi- can be only 22,000. the figure by which he was defeated for United States Senator in 1922, despite Coolidge's plurality of 34,000 in 1924, and to overcome this lead.
 The Roraback prophecy and ,Spellacy's "retort courteous" for the Democrats still are considered the most interesting of State political tidbits. After the na- tional conventions, however, Ror- aback qualified his prediction to the extent of saying that many cross-currents had to be studied before definite statement as to the probable outcome would be made.
 Work Is Stressed
 Spellacy has stressed to his party workers the registration of potential Democrats, hoping for many votes through bestirring Democrats who he says were apathetic at the last election With 477.SO5 names on the lists there were 173,126 not checked as voting in 1926.
