VIRGINIA ELECTION SOUNDS KNELL
 9F- COALITION AGAINST DEMOCRATS
International Newsreei

low Virginia back into Democratic ranks.
 Gov Harry F. Byrd, whose ad- ministration came under coalition fire, hailed the landslide for Pol
 lard as an endorsement of Demo- cratic administrations from F'itz- hugh Lee to the present, a view apparently sh are d by Chairman
 Lyon of the anti-Smith Democrats. The optimistic Democratic camp predicts that the three Congression- al districts electing Republican Rep resentatives in 1928 will send Dem ocrats to Congress next year.
 Virginia elects a Senator next year and Democrats expect no Re- publican opposition to Senator Car
 ter Glass-an opposition that they
 looked for in the event that Brown
 had been elected.

SOVIET PLANES CANCEL FLIGHT AT NORTH CAPE
Plans to Aid in Search for
 Eielson and Borland Dropped by Russians

Russian participation in the search for Col Ben Eielson and his mechanic, Earl Borland, was definitely off today when it was learned that the two Soviet planes at Providence Bay had concelled their plans to take part in the search and were returning aboard the Soviet icebreaker Litke to Vladivostok. Information to this effect was received by Gov. George A. Parks from J. H. Anderson, Sig nal Corps Radio Operator at Teller.
 Last Tuesday, Gov. Parks was advised that two five-man Junker planes on the Litke would search between Providence Bay and Koly- utchin Bay on flight to the Rus sian ship Stavropol, frozen in about three miles from the Nanuk. The Governor said today that Ander- son had wired him the North Cape flight of the Russians had been cancelled and they were returning to Vladivostok with their planes on the icebreaker.
 No reason was given for this ac- tion. Anderson said he was in all most hourly communication by ra- dio with the Nanuk and that per feet weather conditions prevailed there for flying. He said, also, that no word had been received from any of the five dog teams sent out in an effort to locate Eielson who has been missing for 18 days
 The Alaska Airways' planes are having a difficult time to get Q search started. Wednesday, Pilot Borbrandt tried to get off from Tel Ter for an aerial search, but had to return to his landing field when he found it impossible to gain alti- tude. His engiAe was not fuIICtion- ing properly.
 The latest advices recevied by the Governor said Crosson and Young, with a plane each, had been forced to return to Fairbanks owning to adverse weather conditions. No word was heard relative to the location of Graham who had the fourth plane the company was assembling at Nome to take part for an in- tensive search for the missing fly CTS.
 According to advices reaching Ju- neau from Fairbanks, Col. Eielson stated that no concern should be felt for him for 30 days if he be- came missing on his Arctic trips to the Nanuk. He is said to have stated that he expected to be forced down on any of the flights he was making.

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 29.-The Democratic gubernatorial victory in Virginia appears definitely to have terminated the wedding Of ambi- tious Republicans and dissatisfied Democrats.
 That was the view of Republican leaders who seemed to regard the overwhelming victory of the Demo- cratic party as divorcing the Re- publicans from che coalition union with the anti-Smith Democrats
 Their dream of riding to power behind William Moseley Brown burst when he was overwhelmingly defeated by John Garland Pollard, Governor Elect.
 Republican leaders said that the coalition was definitely ended and Henry w. Anderson, member of the Presidents law enforcement com mission and one of the packers of Brown, said he expected the Re- publican party would resume It's role as the minority party in Demo- cratic Virginia but with increased strength.
 While Republicans and Demo- crats of the coalition blamed each other for the debacle, the trium- phant Democrats who backed Pol lard hold that the opposition mis- construed the victory of President Hoover in Virginia last November.
 They contended that it was sig nificant only as indicating the re- fusal of thousands of Democrats to vote for a wet candidate and did not herald the end of Democratic domination of the state.
 Democratic leaders insisted as they did throughout the guberna- torial campaign that no national issues were involved Pollard said the victory could not be consid- cred approval or disapproval ot Smith or Raskob,' although the names of the former Democratic presidential nominee and the Ma tional Democratic Chairman were frequently mentioned by the coali- tion.
 Bishop James Cannon's call for a repudiation of "RaSkObian liberal ism and Democratic leaders ir Virginia who supported Smith, as well as his insistence that prohibi- ton was an issue, apparently was disregarded in view of the bone dry" record of Pollard.
 Election results indicated that the coalition failed to coalesce, for which Frank Lyon, anti-Smith chairman, planes the Republican Party. Lyon said the Republicans diverted attention from the national issues, including prohibition and a protest against national Democratic party leadership by an attack or the Democratic State Administra- tion which caused Democrats to re- turn to old party lines.
 Democratic chieftains in Wash ington, hastened after the election to predict that four other Hoover States" in the South would fol
