TO GOvERNORSH|P
Is Swept Into Office in Great
Democratic Victory in
New Jersey.

NEWARK. NJ j., November A
Harry Moore was swept into the Gov
ernor's chair in yesterdays election on
the crest of one of the most emphatic
Democratic victories in the partys his
tory in New Jersey.
Tabulations of returns from / 1853 of
the 3,349 voting districts in the State
gave Moore 38O,886 to 276,8S2 for his
Republican opponent, David Baird. jr,
On this basis it was calculated Moore's
plurality would reach 10000 votes on
complete returns.
Moore's election was the outcome of
a campaign waged on national as we'll
as State issues. Moore pleaded for cleo
ton as a rebuke to the Republican ma
tional administration for lack of lead
ership in economic distress"
Baird declared in the campaign that
his election would be a vote of conf
dence in the policies of President Hoo
yer. In conceding his defeat early to-
day he said the outcome was n vote
of protest against both the present adj
ministration and the existing times"
He said the Republicans were not re-
sponsible for the present unhappy times
In his landslide Moore carried a
Democratic majority into the State As
sembly for the first time since Presi-
dent Wilson was Governor of New Jer-
sey.

BY the Associated Press.

COLUMBUS. Ohio. November A.
Democrats and Republicans broke even
in the election of two Ohio Represent
atives yesterday, but both new members
of the House stand together on one
matter-opposition to prohibition.
Republicans functioned in the same
manner that kept the late Nicholas
Longworth in the House for 26 years
to elect John B. Hollister, Cincinnati
attorney, as his successor from the
first Ohio district.
In Cleveland. Municipal Judge Martin
l.. Sweeney. Democrat, swamped his
Republican opponent. D. Haydn Parry,
to represent the twentieth Ohio district.
Sweeney will succeed the late Repre-
sentative Charles A. Mooney
Hollister, newcomer in politics, is
law partner of Charles and Robert
Taft, sons of former President William
Howard Taft He won by substantial
ma jority over State Senator David Lor-
bach, Democrat. in a surprisingly easy
contest
Democrats, encouraged by slashing
Speaker Longworth's majority from the
customary 10000 to less than $500
votes last year, had hoped TO capture
the district Hollister, however, I'D
from the start and today's tabulsi I
of 334 out of 34l precincts gave him
Sweeney's stronghold in Cleveland
was never in doubt, running in a Demo-
cratic stronghold against an admittedly
weak candidate. He polled 1882 votes,
against 1902 for Parry.

CLEVELAND GUSTS
CITY MANAGER PLAN
Goes Back to Old Federal System
of Mayor and Council Next
Monday.
BY the Associa ted Press.

Ds biiC hSoOClAbCu FItSS.
CLEVELAND. November 4.-Cleve-
land, the largest city in the world
to try the city manager form of gov
eminent, has turned thumbs down on
the plan and next Monday goes back to
the old Federal system with a mayor
and council elected by wards.
An amendment to the city charter
restoring the old system was adopted
by a majority of nearly 10000. The
complete unofficial vote In the city's
TAO precincts was: For the amendment,
il,276; against, 81 ,970.
Hardly had the vote been counted,
however, before plans were started by
the Citizens League for court attack
amendment provided to be held In Feb
ruary. Mayo Fesler, director of the
league, said 1t was considering filing
suit to enjoin the Legion on the
ground that 1t would be unconstitution-
al in an "even-numbered" year.
Daniel E. Morgan will step out Of
Office as city manager and Law Direc-
tor Harold E. Burton will become acting
mayor until an election is held In Feb
ruary.
William r. Hopkins, former city man.
ager, and Republican, Is expected to
run for mayor, probably as an inde-
pendent candidate. He was ousted
from his Office by the regular Republi-
can organization year and a half ago.
He yesterday apparently was elected
to the city council in campaign based
on opposition TO Maurice Maschke, Re-
publican leader who helped him get q
start politically. The fight between
Maschke and Hopkins became so bitter
that it overshadowed the city manager
controversy.

Reforestation Proposal Is
Voted. but 6. 0. p. Holds

There uaa no comment ri the white
House today upon the outcome Of yes
terday's elections, and according 70 all
outward APPEARANCE President Hoover
was going about his business with no
apparent concern
According 70 r 6 Joslin, one OF his
secretaries Mr. Hoover made no
inquiries about the election returns
either this morning or last night.
President Hoover. Of course. found the
customary pile OF newspapers upon his
desk when he arrived At his once short
~ before 3 o'clock As u his habit be-
fore settling down 10 the business OF the
day he perlIsed these hurriedly Mr.
Hoover sent for none OF his political
friends with whom 10 discuss the out
come of yesterdays voting and from
whom 70 obtain an Interpretation OF the
results
Talks 10 StimSon.
He had an early call from Secretary
OF State Etimson but their discussion
was on an International matter and u
10 doubted whether politics or the cleo
lions we're touched upon more than
casually.
In the matter Of a political analysis
OF the ballotinR however, the President
was very fortunate in having the 3erV-
icrs Of Walter e. Edge. Ambassador TO
France who. with Mrs. Edge was an
overnight guest at the White House.
Mr. Edge was for several years party
chieftain Of New Jersey and at the
time OF his appointment to the diplo-
matte service he represented his State
in the Senate
He is recognized from his long ex-
perience In politics as an able hand at
reading the answer after a day OF bal
Ioting and at interpreting the full
meaning OF the outcome OF an election.
Much attention was focused on Mr..
Edges own State. where the voters yes
terday defeated former Senator Baird,
Republican candidate for Governor.
Mr.. Hoover was represented as not
having remained up beyond his usual
time of retiring last night. regardless
OF the fact It was election night
Senator Glenn OF Illinois. who called
during the morning regarding a water
ways project, discussed the elections
briefly with the President, but made
no comment on the Presidents OBJ
servations. Senator Glenn said that
during his talk he suggested Chicago
as the advisable place to hold the next
Republican national convention. He
said the President made no commit
nent. but gave him the impression he
will maintain a neutral attitude with
respect TO selection Of convention city.
