CRUSHING BLOW FOR EPIC

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7. W.p)-
Gov. Frank F.. Merriam s plurality
in his spirited contest with Upton
Sinclair was increased to more than
100000 votes today as outlying dis
tricts throughout the state con-
tinued to throw added support to
the Republican incumbent.
His lead grew so steadily as re-
turns from smaller precincts were
reported that it appeared possible
he would hold plurality of close
to 250.000 votes when complete,
official returns are revealed.
Returns from 9281 of the state S
10,721 precincts gave:
For gcverncr-Merriam (R), GAL :
159; Sinclair CD, 722,032; Raymond
L. Haight (P), 249 ,452. Merriam IS
plurality, 219. 1877.
Lieutenant governor Hatfield
RI, 848.976; Downey ID, 697,642.
Hatfield's majority Isl 1874.
State treasurer - Johnson R),
463,161; Ward Cd, 273,573. john
sons majority l89,588.
The three hctly contested races
gave California Republicans a
sweeping victory at the expense of
Upton Sinclair IS EPIC organiza-
ton and the Democratic party.
The winners were anti-EpIC from
the start.

SAN FRANCISCO. Nev =
Frank r. Merriam &C Long Beach
today had been eizcted governor
of California but Upton Sinclair Of
Pasadena rolled UP the largest
vote ever accorded Democratic
candidate for a state office.
With about 1900 precincts yet to
be heard from, Merriam IS lead was
i30,390 and it seemed that it would
be around 10000 when the final
count is made.
George Hatfield tRep) went into
office with Merriam but by less
than half the margin, as did
Charles G. Johnson. Republican
candidate for state treasurer.
Sinclair, appearing before his
workers at his Los Angeles head
quarters early today, reiterated his
threats to "hold the sword OF re-
cali" over Governor Merriam
should Merriam refuse to be Oscar
ed'' into progressivism.
At the same time the Democrats
won one additional seat in the
California delegation to congress
and may win two. They threaten
ed the position of Florence P.
Kahn. for years congresswoman
from the fourth California district
but she finally was returned by q
narrow margin.

BEVERLY HILLS, Nov. 6. (Spe-
ciaD-It IS kinder early in the
evening out here, and not much
news yet. I would rather have
a man counting for me at the
polls, than I would voting for
me. History has proved that
there is nothing in the world as
alike as two candidates. Tney
look different till they get in,
and then they all act the same.
I am anxious to see how they
classify these newly elected.
Some are Republicans, but "new
Dealers" some are Democrats,
but not "new dealers;'' some
are Democrats, just TO use the
label; some are Republicans, just
to try and keep an old custom
alive. This next congress is sure
going to be a pack of mongrels.

WOsK,NIEN'S COMPENSATION
MUDDLE

Anybody even casually familiar
| with weaknesses in the workmen's $
compensation service of the state
will agree that former Governor
James M Cox has called attention
to an evil which has been fester-
ing sore for some years. Friends
of the fund have discussed and de-
bated the situation, wondering at
the best method of attacking it.
with view to correction. Cox is
exactly the right man to start the
necessary repair operations.
Officially, Mr. Cox is the father
of the compulsory workmen's COM
pensation system which has served
as the model for many other states
He has been it's foremost friend and
protector. For that reason he can
| not be suspected of having anything
but the best interests Of the system
at heart. Almost anybody else
would have been so accused by per-
sons and cliques that have been
using the fund as a convenient milk
COW for their own enrichment.
The predicament in which the ad-
ministrative machinery finds itself
was brought to a head by the dis
closure of lootings through crooked
pay roll auditors in the state en-
ploy, in collus'on with dishonest
private employers. That, however,
| is only a part of the evil. Not
necessarily through the fault of the
| adm Illustrators, but rather in spite
of their best efforts, the admins
tration of the fund has become a
snarled tangle and confusion.
Victims of industrial accidents
have come to believe that they can
| through the intercession Of lawyers
! or specialists to whom fees must be
| paid, although it was this very evil
which the workmen's compensation
! law was designed to eliminate. Ger
tain free-grabbing physicians have
come to look upon the fund as
free-for-all gold mine. Certain
nurses, hospitals and to lesser eX-
! tent dentists have not hesitated to
tax the fund to the full extent of ap-
| parent plausibility. Industrial cases
have meant sure pay, with the state
paying the bills.
To unrayel the mess and put the
! system on sound and efficient
! basis will prove a tremendous un-
dertaking. Thousands of cases are
many years old and still not finally
settled Some are in this eondi-

and other equipment-every kind OF

except the big Condor which is on
the after deck on special cradle
with its wings extending out over
the water on each side. The pecu-
iiariy hazardous position or this
machine has several times affected
