.VENlzELOS LEADING
IN GREEK ELECTIONS
Support Given Premier Who Had
Recently Resigned When
Attacked by Royalists.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ATHENS, Greece, September 26.-
Early provisional returns from yester-
days election indicated the candidates
Of Premier Eleutherios Venizelos' Liberal
Nationalist party were leading the field
in Athens. Piraeus, Salonica and the
Island Of Mitylene.
The election was held chiefly to choose
members of the Lower House of Parlia-
ment. but the final results will not be
known for three or four days
The voting held particular interest
because of the recent resignation OF
Premier Ven;zelos after he was called to
account by Royalists when he attacked
the former royal family. He was per-
suaded to remain at the head OF the
government until after the election.
The premier declared he was content
because the people apparently had ap-
proved his efforts, in spite OF the at
tacks of his opponents.
Former Premier George Kafandaris,
leader of the Progressives, said Premier
Venizelos had succeeded in destroying
the small democratic parties and had
delivered heavy blow against the Mon
archist party.

IPLAN CO-ORD|NATED.
Workers Facing Extensive
Burroughs to Be Aided
by Change.

Coordination of the unemployment
machinery of the Government, designed
as a particular aid to those employees
facing extensive furloughs, either under
the economy act, or because of reduced
appropriations, today was made pos
sible under an executive order issued by
the White House.
1t has the effect of combining on one
unemployment register workers on the
furlough status; those in the transfer
pool which was created some months
ago to take care of cases where dis
missal was impending, and those al
ready dismissed and on the re-employ-
ment register.
Heretofore. It was explained, at the
Civil Service Commission, provision had
only been made for workers about to
be dismissed and those already dis
had been made to aid the furloughed
group as much as possible.
The Executive Order reads:
THE Civil Service Commission may
set up procedure and promulgate regula-
tions under which employees with APP
prOpriate status who have been recently
or who are about to be, furloughed or
dropped for reduction Of force without
delinquency or misconduct may be
afforded priority in the filling of
vacancies when, in the opinion of the
commission, the conditions of good ad-
ministration warrant such priority"
With this. the commission issued the
following announcement:
Regulations will be promulgated as
soon as possible by the Civil Service
Commission to put into effect a prac-
tical priority for persons who are los
ing their positions either through dis
missal because of reduction of force or
through extended furlough"
The priority to which reference Is
made is that over newcomers seeking
appointment through competitive ex-
aminationS.

OCTOBER MAY TELL
GOODNESS OF WINTER
Warm Month Declared Usually
Followed by Mild Tempera-
lures for Season.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 26.-Thc
Winter will be long and cold, as James
H. Scarf, Government meteorologist,
sizes it up-and then again it may not.
1t all depends on whether the Winter
follows the law of averages or gets
bull-headed.
The last five Winters. the meteorolo-
gist explained. have been mild. Each
warm Winter, under the law of aver
ages, brings a cold Winter just that
much nearer.
One cannot, however be sure. Mr..
Scarf suggested that those who are in
terested might observe the temperatures
during October. In 80 per cent of re-
corded cases warm Octobers have been
followed by warm Winters.

CHICAGO, September 26.-The Chi
cago Daily Tribune said today that
preparation of evidence for second in
dictment of Al Capone and hundreds
of others on a charge of conspiracy to
violate the prohibition act is almost
completed.
The first liquor conspiracy indictment
against Capcne and his men was re-
turned in June of 1881, but the gang
leader was never tried on this charge
because his income tax case took prece-
dence. He is now attempting to win
freedom from the Atlanta, Ga, Federal
Penitentiary on the ground his income
tax conviction was illegal under the
three-year statute of limitations
A threefold purpose is back of the
new indictment, the Tribune said. 1t
will include all recent evidence, bring
ing It up to date to preclude appeal to
the statute of limitations. 1t will also
add new members Of the Capone syndi-
cate. Federal agents were quoted as
saying that in addition it would dc
much to head of any attempt by gang
sters now In prison to win their free
dom by parole.
united states District Attorney Dwight
II. Green said no attempt would be
made at this time to return Capone to
1h;caeo for trial on the liquor charge.

SITUATION is UNCHANGED
AMONG MONTANA VOTERS
Gov. Roosevelt's Nomination Was
Anticipated-Dem Given
Edge at Present.
BY L. NJ. THAYEH
Special Dispatch 10 The star.


HELENA. Mont. July e.-The politi-
cal situation in Montana has been al
tered little by the action Of the Demo-
cratic National Convention. This State
Endorsed Gov. Roosevelt through con-
vention action and instructed its dele
gates for him. He will, very probably,
receive the loyal support of the State
Democratic organization, especially from
the two United States Senators, 7. j.
Walsh and B. K. Wheeler, b0th.of whom
are his warm personal friends and fer
Yio admirers.
Speaker Garner added little to the
strength of the ticket, but their is no
criticism of him.
Roosevelt's nomination has at all
events removed talk of third Progress
sive party Except the ultra-drys
among the advanced liberals, Roosevelt
will attract all the support Progress
siye third party could hope to command.
On the other hand, there is no ques-
ton that a certain amount Of more
conservative Democrats may turn to
President Hoover. before the campaign
is over.
There is a large ultra dry element in
this State, despite the fact that the ma
tority has thrice registered itself as wet
The Republicans have lost no ground
by the Democratic choice and may have
gained some. In a quiet way, they arc
tightening their ranks and their attitude
is more hopeful. However. IL the cleo

the bulk of votes are, naturally feels
that one of the senatorships should go
to that political subdivision.
How Situation Stands.
Roosevelt's acceptance speech was, on
the whole, well received and the cur
rent situation may be summed up as
follows:
California Republicans are on the de-
fensive for the first time in years.
Democrats show signs of an unexpected
solidarity.
There is a breaking down Of party
lines due to the liquor plank, tariff
views and economic unrest.
The Republicans have normal ma
iority In California of approximately
half a million. to overcome which will
require major readjustment. At this
early stage such a turnover may be reg
istered merely within the realms Of pos
sibility.
Hoover Is certainly much weaker than
he was four years ago in his home State,
and the Democratic lineup is gaining
strength daily. The ultimate result de-
pends upon how far this movement will
extend as the campaign advances. 1t
has not yet reached a stage where
Roosevelt can be given more than an
outside chance, but there is a sharp
undercurrent of dissatisfaction with
things as they are.
California is still Republican, but with
a strong drift away from the established
order. The State is by no means on
ice for the President. It is a fair battle
field with odds in his favor, but with a
long. strenuous and bitter campaign in
prospect.

How the Political Tides Are Flowing

Although Maryland Democrats In
large numbers were disappointed when
the Chicago convention ended because
their favorite, Gov. Albert c. Ritchie
was not given a real chance to show
his strength as a presidential candi-
date. latest reports are that sentiment
In the State is beginning to rally be-
hind the party ticket. Gov. Ritchie
himself has taken the lead in calling
on Democrats to work for the success
of the party and has praised Roosevelt
and Garner.
Present indications are that all i'm
portant Democratic groups will be be-
hind the ticket, but whether they can
defeat Hoover in November is another
matter. Reports curing the week were
that the Democrats have at least a
$3.50 chance to win in Maryland in
November.
In Kentucky the names Of Roosevelt
and Garner are looked upon as being
stronger than the party platform,
Garner especially adding strength to
the ticket there. This is one~of the
States where there is expected to be
some crossing of party lines both ways
because of the difference in the two
prohibition planks.
Democratic leaders in Tennessee are
said to be out to put that State back
in the Democratic column this year.
In Nashville boom has been started
for Representative Byrns, present chair
man of the House Appropriations Com
mittee, to be next Speaker of the House.
and it is believed this will help him in
the fight for denomination this year.
Reports from New Jersey describe
the present trend as favorable to
carry the State. The belief is expressed
that Mayor Hague and his Democratic
organization will be working for the
Roosevelt Garner ticket, despite his
strong opposition to Roosevelt at
Chicago. The repeal plank is expected
to help the Democrats there. New Jer-
sey will conduct a State referendum
this year on repeal of the State en-
forcement act.
In Virginia the Democrats. generally
approving of the party ticket, are pre-
pairing to get off to an early start in
the campaign by opening State head
quarters within few weeks. In West
Virginia the Democrats are optimistic,
because of the heavy primary vote they
registered this year. The Republicans
of that State, however. are standing by
President Hoover, and it is reported
there are many who believe the Re
publican plank for submission of the
prohibition question to the States will
give the Republicans an advantage on
this issue.

IOWA is REGARDED
SAFE FOR HOOVER
Most Factors in State Now Indicate
Stronger Trend for G. 0. P.
Slate.
BY c. C. CLIFTON.
Special Dispatch TO The Star.

DES MONIES, Iowa, July 9.-The
conventions are over and the claiming
is under way in Iowa. Republicans and
Democrats all are certain their own
party will carry the State decisively
this Fall
Spurred by the general conviction
that this is Democratic year." the
Iowa minority party Is attempting to
build up an organization to increase
the vote Smith drew here in 1928.
II Iowa Democrats can INCREASE that
vote. they may well win the State for
Roosevelt. But there are a number of
factors which indicate that they will
not be able to do so.
In the first place, Iowa apparently is
less radical than 1t was prior to 1927.
The defeat Of Senator Brookhart is in
oicative of the conservative trend in
Iowa. Hoover will be the conservative.
Roosevelt the liberal, in this campaign.
Then, too hog and steer prices are
on the up grade in Chicago. AS those
prices rise. so rises the stock OF the ad-
ministration, according to the seers.
Futher, four year ago thirsty Repub-
hcans helped swell Smiths total to
nearly 10000 in Iowa This year, 1t is
generally acknowledged, the Republican
wet Is going to vote within his own
party-even though its standard bear
ers may be dry.
There is perhaps. one chance for
the Democrats. That chance will be
determined by the action of Senator
Brookhart, who may run independently.
If he does, he is quite certain to back
Roosevelts candidacy. In that event
Norris Of Nebraska may come into Iowa
to campaign for Brookhart and Roose-
velt.
Brookhsrt's advocacy OF Roosevelt's
candidacy Is not expected to further
the Democratic cause greatly. but Nor
