SHOWN RULING
HEARST POLL
Digest Straw Vote go Per Cent
For Roosevelt; Newspaper
Figure Only 56 Per Cent
By COLE E. MORGAN

The nation wide postcard
presidential poll of The Wash
ington Times and other Hearst
papers continues to be the most
conservative measure of the
present campaign of any of the
numerous straw votes, local or
national.
The one nationwide poll with
which it is possible to make a
direct comparison is that of the
Literary Digest. Returns in the
Digest poll published in this
weeks issue, which for the first
time embraces all 48 States, shows
that of the total Hoover-Roosevelt
Digest ballots, so per cent are to
the credit of the Democratic can
didate with 40 per cent allotted
to his Republican opponent.
Hearst Poll Compared
Returns to date in the Hearst
newspaper poll, embracing all 48
States, show Sc per cent of the
Roosevelt votes credited to
Roosevelt and A per cent to
Hoover.
In no State are the two sets
of percentages exactly the same.
In Is States the eHarst poll gives
Roosevelt a higher rating than
the Digest. In 33 States the Di-
gest's Roosevelt percentages run
higher than those of the Hearst
poll.
The States wherein the Hearst
poll gives Roosevelt the higher
rating are Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mis-
Sissippi, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Texas and Virginia, all
normally solid Democratic States,
and Delaware, Maryland, Okla
homa, Arizona and Nevada, gen.
orally rated as doubtful States, but
not so this year.
No Roosevelt Bias
1t will be noted that none of
the States of major Importance
where the outcome may be re-
garded as in the least uncertain
is included in this group.
The Hearst poll gives President
Hoover the lead in five States
where the Digest figures show
Roosevelt ahead. They are Colo
rado, Kansas, New York, Ohio
and Pennsylvania.
There cali certainly be no un-
due Roosevelt emphasis in the
Hearst poll of those States in the
face of this showing.

Buke, chief of the Detective Blu
reau, and a demotion for Inspec-
tor o. T. Davis, the Commits
sioners are believed to have de-
cided to refuse his recommends
tions, knowing it would place
the superintendent in an unten-
able position and that he prob
ably would resign.
Got Wish Yesterday
Their wishes we're fulfilled
yesterday when Glassford sub
mitted his resignation when the
Commissioners declined to accede
to his requests for action on the
two police officers, according to
District Building reports.
The Commissioners yesterday
stated that they did not believe
that a police superintendent
should have free hand in affect
ing personnel changes in his de-
partment. The Commissioners
should act in a supervisory ca
pacity, they said, and added that
although they could reduce an
inspector in rank they declined
to do so in this instance. The
only alternative would be for
them to order trial board to
hear charges when a demotion
was sought.
They admitted, in this connec-
ton, that they dio not know of
o single instance when a ranking
police officer had been denoted
by a trial board regardless of
whether he was guilty or not.
General Glassford Declines
When they told Glassford he
would have to make charges
against Davis and afford him a
trial, Glassford toll them it ould
merely be mother whitewashed
incident" 2Nor this reason he de-
clned to prefer charges and re-
signed
The Commissioners practically
admitted last night that any po-
lice superintendent would be un-
able to make drastic changes in
his department. They also said
that they considered it a serious
matter to denote any ranking
police officer despite the fact
that their refusal vitally affected
District residents dependent on
.spolice department morale and eff.
.ficiency to safeguard their homes
and businesses.

In speeches in Pennsylvania,

''It won't be just an ordinary
landslide in November for the

that we Americans can talk
about revolution at the bal

him IN Terre Haute last night
that " old fashioned common,

better after March f."
81. Action, Not Talk
Referring to the repeated ap.
pointment of commissioners by
the Republican Administration at
Washington, Roosevelt said:

for action and not just talk"
More and more the governor is
stressing the need for the legaliza
ton Of beer so that the Federal
budget can be balanced through a

hope that the Volstead law will be

To End Cold Sooaer.
If cold has developed or strikes

Take a mild laxative-if needed.
At bedtime, massage throat and
chest well with Vicks VapoRub. 1t

and by Inhalation of its medieated
vapors direct to irritated air-pas-

disease.
During the day, use the conveli-

If the throat is dry and "tick-

there is pleasant relief in the new
