Of the extreme length the

Great Britain and Canada are
the only countries with the allied
forces in the World War who re-
fused to present national flags to
the patriotic exercises planned by
the Takoma Park American
Legion Post No. 28 on Arnistice
Day.
Through a diplomatic miSunder-
standing, the British Embassy has
notified legion officials that it has
no flag to present. 1t was an
nounced at the executive meeting
of the post last night that a
patriotic EngliShman, whose name
was not revealed, has cabled that
he will send a Union Jack to the

Although the French Embassy
reported that it had no flag to
give, the legion officials have al
ready received one for France.

At Hamden, Ohio, a small sta

a crowd of several hundred during
a two-minute stop. There he said:
1--WE are waging q great battle
to preserve the foundations Of
American institutions. That Is
far more important than the
fortunes of any one man. The
battle Is being waged by the Re
publican Party, and it Is being
wOn."
The President thanked the
crowd for the greeting. He said
that "it is heartening and en-
couraging, and evidence OF your In
tentions on the eighth of No
vember."
1t was reported aboard the
Hoover special today-but uncon-
the President might

whether he would or would not
speak about beer.
May Defer Beer
But it is a sore subject with
the Republicans, as well as an
embarrassing one, particularly
since Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt
and AL Smith have been empha-
sizing in their recent speeches
that a Democratic administration
means the early restoration Of
beer and a consequent reduction
in other forms of taxation.

Solem asserted that he thought
his teams chances would not be

The conflict is expected to be
viewed by more than $4,000 per-

Mr.. Hoover'S route today lay
through the Ohio River Valley,
nominally a prosperous and busy
section of the country, but now,
as elsewhere, suffering from the
deep inroadS of the depression.
He began campaigning early

The Washington times., 1932-10-28

The belief prevailed, however,
that if Mr.. Hoover has anything
to say about beer during this
campaign it will be reserved for
next week. when he visits the
populouS and wet centerS of Bal
timore. Philadelphia, Newark and
New York. His audiences in
those places would be better cal
culated to appreciate it.
Sticks To Economics
Mr.. Hoover has not mentioned
prohibition in any of his speeches
since the night of August II,
when he formally accepted renom-
ination. At that time he merely
expressed the opinion that "a
change is necessary" in the pro-
hibitory laws, and let it go at
that.
He proposed no alternative,
merely stating that American
craftsmanship was capable of
working out a solution to the
problem. Since then his speeches
have been devoted entirely to the
economic issues of the campaign.
All three of the States through
which Mr.. Hoover travelled today
while normally Republican in ma.
tional elections, have been re.
Vealed in the straw votes and
newspaper polls to have distinct
Democratic leaningS.

At Chillicothe there was an
other large crowd out to see Mr.
Hoover. The President appeared
on the rear platform but did not
speak, other than to extend In
formal greetings to the crowd.
At Athens President Hoover
said:
"The coal industry has gone
through a long period Of diff
Guilty. The competition Of oil
and electricity have tended to
prevent the expansion of the
industry, or even its mainte-
nance on a fair level.
"These competitors have, in
my view, about exhausted them
selves and the natural GrOwth
of the country will give
greater future. But in the
meantime the industry has
been reduced to a bitter, de-
structive competition, the main
burden of which falls upon the

Roosevelt Leads in Montana,
Idaho, Wyoming, While Hoover
Has Colorado Margin
By COLE E. MORGAN

Whoever gets the four
doubtful States of the Rocky
Mountain region must travel
a rocky road to get them from
now until election day.
It will be no easy path to
victory for either President
Hoover or Governor Roosevelt in
Colorado, Idaho, Montana, or
Wyoming.
Not one of the four States will
be won by as much as 10000
popular vote majority. In Wyo-
ming and Colorado the majorittes
will be under 10000 and nearer
five than ten.
This is the outlook from a care
full and detailed analysis by
counties and congressional dis
tricts of returns in the nation
wide presidential poll of The
Washington Times and other
Hearst papers.
The analysis gives Montana,
Idaho, and Wyoming to Roose-
velt, and gives Colorado to Hoo
yer, as the returns stand today.
Roosevelt's Montana majority
figures 1924. In Idaho, it is
17,074, and in Wyoming 4,914.
Hoover'S Colorado majority fig
ures 6,528.
These estimates are arrived at
by applying the percentage divi-
sion of the post card poll bal
lots to the total popular vote
cast in the 1928 election.
Leads by Districts
Roosevelt stands to get 7,848
in the first and 4,476 in the
second Montana districts. In
Idaho his majority figures 5,344
in the first and 1880 in the
second. wyoming in a single dis
trict rates him 4,914.
In Colorado, Hoover draws the
first, second, and third districts
and Roosevelt the fourth. Th e
Hoover majorities figure 1926 in
the first, 2,130 in the second,
and 1882 in the third. Roose-
velt's fourth district majority is
$3.50, which cuts the Hoover
State figure to 6,528.
In no instance are these fig
ures so large that they could not
be overturned with a laSt-minute
swing

ROOSEVELT OUT
IN FRONT IN
Al STATES
Literary Digest Shows Gov
ernor Still Leading Hoover
8 to 2; President Gains

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S
(LN.S. .).-Franklin d. Roose-
welt, Democratic presidential
nominee, was shown as leading
in Al States in the Semifinal
returns of the Literary Digest s
national poll, the latest figures
of which were made public to-
day.
Norman Thomas, Socialist can
didate, recorded 141,922 votes, or
4.84 per cent of the total ballots.
Roosevelt maintained his 3-to-2
lead over President Hoover, the
Democratic standard-bea regis
tering 56.19 per cent, or 1,648,237
votes, while Hoover has 1888 per
cent, or 1,095,274 ballots, of a
total of 2,933,6 votes tailed.
Slight Gain by Hoover
However, President Hoover re-
corded a slight gain from 37.19
per cent of the total vote which
he had last week.
Hoover con t n ue d to carry
Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire,
Massachusetts,, Rhode Island, Con-
necticut and New Jersey.
Roosevelt held the lead in the
remaining Al States.
In the 100000 ballots received
and counted during the last week,
neither candidate showed a gain
or loss of more than l per cent
in any State.
Although Roosevelt still leads
in New York, the vote there con-
tinued to be closer than any other
State. Roosevelt polled 167, ,084
votes to Hoover's 157,845 in the
Empire State, showing a very
slight increase for the President
over last weeks returns.
Delaware also showed a close
race, with RooSevelt's lead cut
from plurality of 202 votes last
week to ITS votes this week out
of a total of 4,997 cast,
The Democratic candidate is
shown from an analysis of the vot-
ing in 1928 as obtaining 37.19 per
cent of his strength from former
Republicans. The same analysis
shows that Hoover is obtaining
80.61 per cent of his votes from
former Republican ranks and 500
from former Democrats.
keystone Lead Holds
Roosevelt continued to obtain
more votes from those who voted
for his opponent in 1928 than
from members of his own larty
in California, Iowa, Kansas, Mich
igan, Nevada, North Dakota, Ore
gon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota.
Washington, Wisconsin and Wyo-
ming.
In Pennsylvania, stronghold Ct
Republicanism, Roosevelt kept his
lead with 120,054 compared with
1885 for Hoover.
Hoover received his largest
plurality in Massachusetts,, where
he leads Roosevelt by q vote of
57,7W to 33,023.
In Kansas, regarded by many
as a doubtful State, Roosevelt
registered 27,757 against 22,372
for Hoover.
In California, home State Of
the President, Roosevelt received
vote of 143,584 to Hoover's
77,875
Texas, registered in the Hoover
column four years ago, now re
fleets a vote of more than four
to one Democratic.
Hoover's potential electoral
vote, as indicated by the maya
zines figures, was given as ST

JAPAN CONTROLS GOD FISH MARKET OWING
 ID LOW FISH TARIFF

The extreme difficulty of mar keting Alaska cod fish at a profit is painfully apparent when those engaged in codfishing in Western Alaska along the Aleutian islands complain that they are unable to sell their fish at a profit.
 This unique situation is attrib- uted to the low tariff on the fish and the fact that Japan floods the Pacific coast markets at selling prices that Alaska fishermen can not compete with.
 Tense with apprehension of in creased taxation, the Ketchikan Chamber of Commerce has passed resolutions and forwarded them to officials in Washington, protesting against a sales tax or any addi- tional burden on canned salmon.
 Ketchikan is the greatest sal man canning district in the world. One-half million cases are canned in the city, or within two miles of it, every year. Another million or more cases are canned within radius of 50 miles.
 The salmon canning industry in Alaska represents an investment of approximately $75.00O000 with an annual production of about $3O,- 000,OOO
 Ketchikan, however, does favor a duty upon the importation of pulp and newsprint "at such a rate as will insure the early utiliz- ation of Alaska forests for the manufacture of paper and news print
