If the expression. snatch victory

ticularly SO today in this contest be-
tween Barbour, Republican, and Percy

term of the late Dwight Morrow.
At noon yesterday Senator Barbour,
now serving by appointment, viewed the
Democratic devastation to Republican
hopes everywhere. studied the figures
that placed Stewart far ahead OF him
at that time, and conceded defeat
Almost as though his very concession
were signal, the trend Of the returns
swung about. He sought to recall his
statement conceding Stewards election,
but it was too late Smaller and small

night it was wiped away entirely and
this morning, with only Is of the

On the basis of these unofficial re-
turns, Senator Barbour carried Is Of
the 81 counties.
New Jerseys preference for Gov
Roosevelt in the presidential contest
remained substantial, but the same late
returns which were bolstering Bar
bour's advantage were reducing the
Roosevelt lead from high Of l00,000
to about so 900 votes.

Latest returns, showing the Repub-

the Senate until March 4, means that

If the Democrats had captured Sena-

New Jersey and Colorado, they would
have had the numerical strength to
organize the Senate Immediately, and
thereby take over committee chairman

stantial majority with which to or
ganize the Senate after March 4, the
Democrats did not win these unexpired
terms which would have affected con-

COURT KILLS STATES
BANK GUARANTY LAW
Nebraska Decision Releases $3,.
100000 for Stockholders or for
Assets of Institutions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
LINCOLN, Nebr. November I0.-Ne-
braska's guaranty fund banking legisla-
tion was invalidated by State Supreme
Court decision today.
The decision held legislation passed
by the 1880 special session which pro-
vided for lower annual assessments than
under the old guaranty fund law was
unconstitutional because it took prop
erty from one class Of property owners
without benefit TO give to another
Money collected under this law was to
be distributed only to depositors In
banks which failed prior to enactment
Of the law
The court ruled also that assessments
levied from December IS, 1928. under
the old guaranty fund law until 1t was
repealed by the 1880 special Legislature
were confiscatory under existing condi-
tions. The request Of the banks for an
injunction to prevent collection Of these
assessments was upheld.
Banks had set aside $4,000 900 to pay
these assessments and this money will
be released for stockholders dividends
or to furnish further assets Of these
banks.
The decision did not invalidate the
principle of guaranty fund legislation,
nor bar future legislation.

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, November 10.-Today's S
..ewspapers, commenting on the Amer
can election, agreed that the Demo-
cratic victory will make little difference
in American policy because both major
parties represent capitalistic rule"
Both Pravda and Izvestia attribute
Gov. Roosevelt's success to mass dis
satisfaction with the Republican ina
bility to overcome the economic crisis. "
But" said Pravda, 'it is an illusion
to think that the change from one
capitalist party to another will improve
the condition Of the laboring people.
One factor in Hoover'S defeat was his
indecisive foreign policy in the face OF
increasing Japanese aggression and
growing Anglo American controversies. +"
Izvestia predicted that "Roosevelt's
policy will be more aggressive and he
will look for new alliances. He was
elected because the people wanted a
change, but he is vague on questions
of tariff, taxation and unemployment" ]"

STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

PALO ALTO, Calf, November TO-
President Hoover really has not the re-
motest idea just what will be his course
when he again becomes private citizen
according to his closest friends. When
asked this question here, he smilingly
replied that he has been SO busy trying
to catch up on his sleep that he hasn't
even thought about the future.
While the President has formed nc
ideas in this respect there are -four
things very definitely fixed in his mind
which will contribute greatly to the
shaping of his plans when the time
comes. These are:
First of all, he will never seek public
office again. second, he intends to re-
turn to his beautiful home here rather
than reside in the large colonial house
in Washington he occupied while he
was Secretary of Commerce, and which
he still owns; third, he will not lead a
life of idleness but will again become
active in business Last, he will not &c
through the remainder of life an en-
bittered man.
Gives Views to Press.
These conclusions are reached as a
result Of expressions made yesterday
by the President during an informal
chat with newspaper correspondents
most of whom have been with him
through his strenuous campaigning, and
several of whom have been covering
him since the day of his Inauguration
The President talked in a low tone
and with not the slightest hint OF
rancor or bitterness. There was a GER
tain wistfulness about him. particularly
when he smiled. He seemed calm and
philosophical, but the manner in which
he handled the long cigar he was smok-
ing at the time suggested nervousness
