It was a sadder but wiser contingent

yesterday-a contingent that last Sat
urday, for the first time in the history
Of the national Journeys, failed to show
the way for bowlers of rival cities. Be
cause they refused to take the tour

L those District stars who would not
believe it would require their best
bowling to win national title boosted
the duckpin game generally by their
comparative failure TO monopoliZe the
events. Bowlers of other cities, here
tofore always looking up to the aces of
Washington, are imbued with a wealth
of encouragement as a result OF their
showings.
The generally low scores by the Cap
ital stars came as surprise last Sat-
urday. There was no kick coming,
however, because Of the alleys. The
new, rounded cutters were responsible
for many an undeserved spare break
and pin. 1t was inaccuracy that was
responsible. Had spare breaks been
shot with the usual degree of accuracy,
at least four more events now would be
topped by Washingtonians, who, pre-
vious to this years tournament, had
won 81 out of the 33 championships.
THE brightest performance of Wash
i ington day was the feat Of the
Silver Spring team IN taxing the
lead in the mems team event.

$40, the Springers, with Ollie Webb
throwing in four double-header strikes

HOOVER GIVEN
ADVANTAGE IN
PARTS OF EAST
But General Situation Is
Like Rest of Nation,
Ready for Change
- BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press stan Correspondent
Copyright. 1882. bv United Prsssl

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-PreSi-
dent Hoover is given the advant-
age in several eastern states report
ing N the United Press national
political survey.
He is reported to have a reason
able chance of recovering MasSa-
chusetts, one of the two states in
the north which he lost to Alfred
E. Smith four years ago.
Rhode Island, the other 1928
Smith state, is reported less certain
for the Democrats than it was
four years ago.
Anti Roosevelt feeling is an i'm
portant influence in both states.
Smiths forthcoming speeches in
that territory, however, may i'm
prove Roosevelt chances.
Anti-HOOver Feeling Strong
With that exception the situa-
ton in New England and the big
eastern states is described in the
confidential reports in much the
same language found in reports
from the farther west. In the east,
as elsewhere, economic issues and
anti-Hoover feeling dominate.
Of the New England states, with
their total of forty-one electoral
votes, the hardest fighting is over
Massachusetts, with seventeen
votes. Smith, four years ago, had a
Y0I1,ro 1itx, 0f IT mn 1,otas at ~ -
total of 100000.
IAN extremely important factor
in Massachusetts, is the unpopular
'ity of Governor Roosevelt" one re-
port said. This is not so much anti
Roosevelt as 1t is strong pro-
Smith
Roosevelt soon is to make an adj
dress in Boston. Smith and the
Democratic candidate have made
peace. But reports state that the
wounds still are unhealed Demo-
Gratis are trying to make their fight
an anti-Hoover one rather than
pro- Roosevelt.
Thomas to Get Votes
Mill workers, many of them re-
sentful of the treatment of Smith,
are expected to vote for Norman
Thomas, the Socialist candidate. A
large vote for Thomas is feared by
Democrats because it would cut di-
rectly into them.
Maine IS expected to be close.
Democrats are trying to hold the
small margin by which they car
ried the state in September.
Rhode Island is listed as doubtful.
Reports also list Connecticut as
in doubt, with Roosevelt favored.
Contrary to expectations some
weeks ago, those reporting the out
look in New York now believe
Roosevelt will carry his own block
of forty-seven votes.
Pennsylvania in Doubt
New Jersey reports also favor
Roosevelt on economies, rather than
the prohibition issue which is ira
ditional in that state.
In Pennsylvania Democrats are
seriously going after that block of
thirty-six votes which has been al
most as sure Republican hitherto as
Arkansas has been Democratic.

Loewenstein converted wartime
explosive plants to the making of
rayon. The profits were enor-
nous. He sensed, with his agile
trading mind, the immense sig
nificance Of power in developing
industry.
I'VE are now in the power age,

TINE Belgian acted on that as
Il sertion. He gobbled power

In the early part of 1928 Leow-

brought him to insults doorstep.
Pyramiding profits and credit, he
undertook to buy control of the
core of insults empire-Common
wealth Edison, Peoples Gas and
Public Service of Northern Illi-
nois. Waves of buying orders
passed through his brokers in New
York and Chicago. The prices of
these gilt-edged common stocks
advanced steadily.
Noting the brisk market, insult
sent for the auditors who kept
then, and do now, a close check
on ownership of the voting stocks
in these companies.
Inquiries were set up. While
insult, highhanded and never easy
under fire, fumed and fretted,
word finally was brought to him
that the heavy purchases had
been made for Loewenstein's &C
count.

fought back. He hypothecated

Finally, Loewenstein, finding
