With the campaign proper ly carried on from now until the 1888 election the democrats should be in full charge of the oountry's government"
 "The sweep of the democrats in Connecticut yesterday was to be ex- pected,' said Chairman Crary. "An analysis of the returns points to nationwide victory for the party next year and for the party in Connecticut. The republican hold on affairs in this state is gradually slipping and the huge majorities piled up by the democrats in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport is proof of the change of public opin-. ion,"
 Mayor Thoms uttered similar statements and predicted land- slide in the nation for the demo- crats in next years nattoanl and state election.
 The above named leaders, with others, pointed to the majority the democrats gained in congress with the declaration that developments at Washington, D. C., beginning with the December session will be such as to hol dthe attention of the entire electorate of the country.
 Mayor Hayes victory here last month by a majority of over 5000 votes was eciipsed in yesterdays voting in New Haven. Mayor-eiect Murphy Of the Elm City carried his city by over 5000 votes. The ma jority in Hartford did not equal Mayor Hayes and in Bridgeport the democrats won by only slightly over 2,0O0 votes.
 Tn Hartford and New Haven the speliacy- -FitzGerald forces were be- large majorities. In Bridgeport the hind the candidates elected by 'new guard" headed gy John A. Cornell and National Committee man Archibald McNeil were behind the successful democratic candi- date. Mayor Edward T. Sucking ham.

county, Sheehan's home, the careers of Smith and Roosevelt have been closely allied.
 Smith became speaker of the as- sembly, sheriff of New York. and governor in 1918. Roosevelt had become assistant secretary of the navy, a traditional Roosevelt office,
 Roosevelt came back to New York state to campaign for his friend, Alfred B. Smith.
 Then in 1920 when Roosevelt was candidate for vice-president on the ticket headed by James M. Cox, of Ohio, Smith stumped the country for Roosevelt. Roosevelt had nom- mated Smith for the head of the ticket during the convention in San Francisco.
 Roosevelt again nominated Smith in Madison Square garden in 1924, After John W. Davis was chosen following bitter religious fight in which William Gibbs McAdoo fig- ured, both Roosevelt and Smith stumped for Davis.
 At Houston, in 1928. Roosevelt, crippled by infantile paralysis, was wheeled onto the platform and for the third time in his career nomi- mated his former political enemy for the highest office in the land.
 Smith and his friends, seeking someone to help his own chAnces in New York state in the campaign that followed, decided Roosevelt

other causes would be decisive in such situation.
 Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt won his issue with Former Cover nor Alfred B. Smith in obtaining approval of the state constitutional amendment for a reforestation plan.
 Though Smith denied his opposi- ton to Roosevelt on this point in- volved 8 personal break, their controversy was watched closely by both parties for it's bearing on the prestige of Roosevelt, a leading prospect for the democratic presi- dental nomination. Both parties supported the amendment. Smith fought something of 8 single-hand- ed battle.
 A voice from the past was heard again when General" Jacob Coxey who led a ragged army of unen1- ployed on Washington after the panic of 1893, apparently was elected mayor of Massillon, Ohio.
 National issues appeared only casually in the elections.
 In municipal elections, Frank Murphy. known as the dole mayor" was reelected mayor of Detroit. Though the election was non-partisan. Murphy. 8 democrat, was opposed by Harold D. Elm mons, a republican.

 In previous years Ford raised wheat, corn, buckwheat and other grains on the farm. This year the agricultural experts were ordered to plant vegetables.

 "A democratic majority in the national house of representative is now assured. The indications are that the same warmth of con- fldence in the national administra- ton will become equally manifest next year. The trouble is the re- publican party has failed to deal with economic problems of the day in a large and nOn-partisan way"
 The governor referred to the re- publican legislatures defeat of his programs for efficient reorganiza- ton of state administration and old age pensions.
 There was little or no legislation in the last session of the national congress to indicate it's members had the slightest notion of the economic problems which confront the country to-day. The tariff, for example, ts no longer a mere qres-S ton of protection or free trade. It Is Q question of adjusting American tariffs to the tariffs of other coun- tries in such a way as to promote the welfare of the people of the United States with due considera- ton to the welfare of other coun- tries with whom we have to do business.
 'The Hoover administration has been evasive as if lost when 1t has had to formulate domestic and for eign policies. Instead of clear thinking and proper action num- berless commissions have been ap- pointed, apparently for the pur- pose of staying off action, hoping in the meantime that either God or events would come to the rescue. 7. 'The people of this country want clear cut policies on prohibi- ton, taxation, modification of anti- trust laws, relief of the railroads, maintenance of the gold and inter- national debts, a subject which cannot be divorced from repara- tions.

 Hartford, which elected a repub-
 fcan mayor by . margin of So votes two years ago. gave Will nam J. Rankin. democrat, a plurality of 6,391 votes over Will Ham J. Mulhgan, renublican. The new board of alderten consists of cans.
 The most complete overturn was New Haven. Murphy's plurality more than doubled the largest ever before given a candidate for mayor and that was given to a re- publican some years ago. The beard of aldermen. which had consisted of 22 republicans and II democrats was revised to "A demo- crats and nine republicans.
 Political observers saw the large pluralities boiled by demo- crats as foercasts of even greater democratic strength in the next state election than in the last, when Governor Wilbur l.. Cross was the only democrat elected. Democratic National Committee man Archibald McNeil of Bridge port saw in the results a "trend which will have its climax in the election of a democratic presi- dent and democratic state ticket in Connecticut next year."
 The chief statewide significance of the democratic victories was believed in some quarters to be the recapture of the democratic organizations at New Haven and Hartford by the "old guard fac ton of the party, represented rec spectively in the two cities by Da- vid E. Fitzgerald and former Ma. tiOnal Committeeman Thomas J. Spellacy. Governor Cross forced out the "old guard" before accept- ing the nomination for governor in a dramatic scene in which he stood in his pajamas ina hotel room at 8 o'clock of the morn ing of the convention and delivered his ultimatum.
 Socialist Happy.
 Bridgeport, Conn, Nov 4.-(UP) Jasper McLeyy, who came with in less than 5000 votes of becom- ing Connecticut's first socialist mayor, was determined to-day to continue his battle against the two-part system.
 Standing among several hundred friends in the socialist party club rooms after yesterdays election, the big, raw-boned roofer declared himself "the happiest man in the world"
 "For 90 years I have been plead ing with the people of this city to repudiate the double machine" said McLevy. "At last I have suc- here. The fight Is just beginning the next day, next year and to the end of my life I shall continue my battle for the return to the people of this city's 
 Without organization, with only the dimes and nickels collected at street corner rallies to pay his expenses, McLevy boiled 15,0S5 votes for mayor, four times the most he ever got in his II previous runs and almost as many as he received in the entire state in. his last run for governor.
 The Singing Mayor
 New Haven, Conn, Nov A,--(UP) The mere incident of being elect ed democratic mayor of normally republican New Haven is not keep ing John w. Murphy from keep ing up with his psalm singing.
 Yesterday when most candidates for office were most active at the polls, Murphy was singing bass with the St Francis church choir at two funeral masses.
 To-day. while friends sought him to congratulate him, he was singing another funeral mass.
