Other Nations Affected.
Gov Roosevelt also in recent speech
in defending his boom argument said
that when our boom collapsed all but
20 per cent of the people of the world
were in state of prosperity, If he
will examine carefully statement of
the National Bureau of Economic Re-
search, whose authority no one denies,
he will find that the booms of the fol-
lowing nations had already collapsed:
Germany, Australia, Japan, Mexico,
Turkey, Rumania, Bolivia, Brazil, India,
Poland and Bulgaria, embracing 600,-
100000 people, and that coincidentally
II other nations had been affected by
those collapses-that is, the United
States, the United Kingdom, Canada,
Hungary, Italy, Argentina. South Africa,
Czechslovakia, Austria, Peru, Belgium,
the Netherlands and Spain-and had
begun to decline. If he will check up the
portion of the world included IN those
nations, he will find he has been mis-
informed about 300 per cent.
As a matter of fact, If the Demo-
cratic candidate actually wants to put

"And what of the presidents home state? Has California also opened her arms to her own son? No such maternal gesture has es- caped her, according to these un- compromising expressions of her attitude toward the candidates: Hoover 16,402; Roosevelt 35,S73. But it may be that California will be piling up record poll-vote for MT Hoover before many weeks are over.
 "The nine new states in this tab ulation are Alabama, Colorado. Georgia, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, South Carolina and Wisconsin. "The last name catches the eye | because of the defeat of the LaFol- lette organization in the Wisconsin. primaries. That event was widely ' heralded as 'Wisconsin's belated return to the fold of conservative Hooverite republicanism'. But what do the Digest ballots from Wisconsin say? Only this: Hoover 4,750, Roosevelt 10,084.
 "A fine chance for the political prophets to do some explaining should the returns from Wisconsin continue to show that complexion. "Only two of the nine newcom- CTS prefer Hoover so far. These are New Hampshire and Rhode Island. A Roosevelt column are well scat tered over, the map-Alabama, Colorado, Georgia, Mississippi, Montana, South Carolina and Wis | consin.
 "of last weeks ahnement of eleven, New York is the only one to shift candidates. The others are still going strong for their first choices. =
 Massachusetts, for instance, is still piling up a majority for Hoo- yer at about the same ratio as be- fore while Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illi- nois and the others, now joined
 by New York, are swelling the Roosevelt bag of ballots.
 "And again the interparty drifts declare themselves, especially the drift of former republican voters as of 1928, into the democratic ] columns.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-10-07

The southern states reporting this week give Roosevelt tremend- ous pluralities: 79.24 per cent, in Alabama; 83.52 per cent, in Georgia; 89.46 per cent. in Missis- sippi, and 88.61 per cent in South Carolina.
 New Hampshire gives Hoover 56.62 per cent of its total vote. leading the republican state col umn to date while Massachusetts gives the president 56.14 per cent, Connecticut 54.51 per cent and Maine 53.51 per cent of the cur rent ballots cast in these republi- can strongholds.

Roosevelt increases his lead over Hoover in the third weeks returns from twenty states in The Literary Digest's presidential poll of 20,000,- O00 ballots, gaining a'clear major ity of the 798,089 ballots tabuiated in tomorrow's issue of the maga- zine.

RAILROADS MAY CUT WAGES + GUARANTEE
 STABILIZED LABOR

CHICAGO, Jan 21 (P)-Repre- sentatives of railroad labor and capital worked on a proposal for a 10 per cent wage cut for 100000 employees in exchange for stabil- ized work
 An announcement that the roads will not enforce the recent Is per cent reduction, with notice to take effect January 21, was a cheering development
 Concensus of opinion among la bor delegates was that the wage drop was necessary to keep many railroads from bankruptcy and that workers should accept such reduc- tion if the railroads promise to re- store a large percentage of 50O,OOO former employees.
