MOST OF DU POINT GROUP
SUPPORTING REPUBLICANS
Bayard, Democratic Candidate for
Upper House, Waging Hard
Fight to Return.
BY G.. GOULD LINCOLN,
Staff Correspondent Of The Star.

WILMINGTON, Del, october 29.-
Delaware's three electoral votes will be
cast for Herbert Hoover unless there is
an unexpected development in the last
days of the campaign.
After Gov. Smiths nomination, after
the appointment of John j. Raskob as
chairman of the Democratic national
committee and after the announcement
of Pierre S. du Pont that he would
support Smith rather than Hoover
there was widespread belief that Della
ware might be considered Smith prop
erty in the coming election. This ran
along for weeks. But you do not find
any such belief in Delaware today. The
Democrats are hoping, that's all. The
Republicans, on the other hand, are
supremely confident, their organization
is hitting on all fours and even some
of those who are supporting Smith say
he has not a ghost of a show to carry
the State.
Delaware is sometimes looked upon
as a baronial estate Of the du Pont
family. Certainly the du Points have
a tremendous influence here. 1t Is the
du Pont industries that have taken the
lead in making Delaware one of the
most prosperous States in the Union for
its size and population. So when Mr..
Raskob, who made his home near here
for years, and some $50,0o0.000 or so
in the bargain, got on the Smith train
and Pierre S. du Pont came out pub
licly for the Democratic nominee things
looked rosy for Smith in this State.
Other du Points for Hoover.
But the detection of the du Pont
family from the Republican ranks
stopped right there. AS 1t happens,
there is a large group of prominent
members of the du Pont family outside
Of Pierre du Pont. Among the group
are Lamont du Pont, present head Of
the du Pont Corporation, and Irenee
du Pont, both brothers of Pierre. not
to mention Senator Coleman T. du Point,
now representing the State as q Re-

u. S. WORKERS GET
TIME FOR VOTING
President Consents to Order
Giving Employees Chance
to Cast Ballots.

Federal employees throughout the
country are to be allowed sufficient time
of from their work on election day to
go to the polls. This has been made
possible by the consent of President
Coolidge, but he is not going to issue
an executive order to that effect, nor
does he want this to be looked upon in
the sense of a holiday. 1t is his inten-
ton that the department heads excuse
their respective employees for reason
able periods" on the day of election.
The President has notified the MEM
bers of his cabinet and heads of various
independent Government bureaus that
he has no objection to them issuing
orders in their respective departments
and bureaus to the effect that the en-
ployes may, upon application, be ex-
cused from their duties to cast their
votes.
Steward Started Move.
The proposition as made to the
President two weeks ago by Luther
Steward, president OF the Federation Of
Federal Employees, called for an executive
order from the President excusing the
employees from work on election day.
Thousands of men and women living
In this city who are legal voters in
some one Of the States win not be af-
fected by these departmental orders,
but those living in the nearby sections
of Maryland and Virginia, however, will
be benefited, as will the many thousands
of Government employees in other parts
of the country.
The President and Mrs. Coolidge will
go to Northampton. Mass, to vote on
November 6.

Democrats Expect to Carry

Up Hard Work.
Note-This is the eighth of a series of
articles on the political situation in
nearby Maryland and Virginia.
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.
stan Correspondent Of The Star.


STAUNTON, Va, October 29-Not
since ''Stonewall' Jackson fought his
famous valley campaign" against
Banks, or the day when Early's men,
worn by protracted campaigning, at
length succurnbed to the Union Army
under Phil Sheridan, has the Shen-
andoah Valley been in such state Of
disturbance as one finds here today.
In those distressing days it was ma
terial things-houses, barns, wheat and
corn fields-that we're in danger in this
"grainary of the Confederacy." Now
it is political issues, and moral ques-
tons transferred into the political
arena, that are declared to be at stake.
Travelling by automobile along the
historic Valley road, from winchester
to Staunton, trod so many times by
Jacksons weary but indomitable foot

evidence of the present unusual state

called the Lee Highway after Jackson's
famous commanding officer. Here, too,
the information was the same.

It was a good road, as roads went in

today it is a modern automobile high

ample accounts OF the historic events

HAGUE IS CITED

BY PROBE BODY
New Jersey Mayor, Accused
of Contempt, Says Commit

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TRENTON, N. j., October o.. Frank
Hague, mayor of Jersey City and vice
chairman of the national Democratic
committee, today was cited for con-
tempt in refusing to appear before the
Case legislative investigating committee.
The citation was doubled when As
semblyman Barrett, member of the
committee, moved that Hague's action
be placed before the bar of the Legis-
lature, which reconvenes on November
10. The motions were carried by a
vote of to 2, strictly party vote.
Mayor Charges Politics.
In a letter read to the committee
declining to appear, the mayor held
himself answerable to the committees
subpoena as well as any other in
dividual," but declared he, refused Ito,
become victim of your present politi-
cal maneuvering." The letter quoted
an item published in a Newark news
paper in which Senator Clarence E.
Case, chairman of the committee, said
1t would be unfair" to call the mayor
on the eve of the election.
II do not want the impression
created" the letter said, that am
trying to evade the answering of any
questions because, after all, they can
just as well be answered after election
as they can before election.
IF you will now Ak the date imme-
diately after election will then gladly
answer your questions as I have been
ready to do since last July"
Recites Past Experience.
The letter recited the fact that the
committee was created last April, and
that when Hague was subpOenaed on
July 16 he was obliged to wait until 80
minutes before adjournment before be-
ing called.
Since that time" the mayor wrote,
-four and a half months have elapsed.
1t is now evident that you delayed call
ing me until the eve of an important
election. The delay until this later
date cannot be construed for any other
than political reasons"
The Case committee was appointed
by the 1928 Legislature to investigate
the conduct and operation of any de-
partment or Office of State, county or
municipal government. 1t received the
power to subpoena witnesses or records
The membership of the commission Is
overwhelmingly Republican.
