"A total of 1,702,562 of those who have voted in the current Li- terary Digest Poll indicated on their ballots how they had cast their votes in the 1882 Presidential election.
 "Of that total 459,33S voters in the forty eight States have chang ed their minds about Roosevelt since 1932.
 "Of those who voted in 1882 for Hoover. 237,452 now vote Yes for Roosevelt in The Literary Digest Poll.
 "Of those who voted in 1882 for others than Roosevelt and Hoover, 3S,104 now vote Yes for Roose- welt in The Literary Digest Poll.
 And of those who voted in the 1882 election for Roosevelt, 1S3,7S2 now vote No on the Roosevelt policies.
 "On the basis of those figures Roosevelt now shows net gain of 91,74, or 5.39per cent, of the cur- rent Literary Digest poll voters who cast a ballot in the 1882 Presi- dential election.
 The same analysis indicates that Roosevelt has incurred net losses of support among current Literary Digest poll-voters in twenty states, and netgains in the other twenty eight states, since 1882.

In preparation for the celebra- ton of Connecticut's tercentenuary the whole state is busy making preparations to welcome the visit ors who will come to renew old as- sociations, to enjoy her forests, streams and shore front and the countless attractions which her far-famed towns, villages and countryside provide.
 Every visitor, every citizen will make use of Connecticut's high ways, will enjoy not only the roads themselves and their surroundings but will find to their surprise how extensive d system of trunk high | ways and secondary roads the state | possesses.
 Honorable John A. Macdonald Connecticut's highway commis- sioner and his assistant, Luther M. Keith, director of roadside de- velopment, have chosen an oppor- tune moment to issue "The Story of the Operation of the Bureau ot Roadside Development of the Con- necticut Highway Department"
 Few of us realize what 1t means to provide attractive highways The story of the accomplishments of the past seven years Is nota Dle The natural charm and beauty of Connecticut is one of her most priceless assets. paying invest ment that attracts residents, visit ors, tourists and business to the state
 Roadside development has transformed hundreds of miles of ugly and often disgraceful borders along fine, smooth stretches of concrete, asphalt and macadam pavement into beautiful parkways in which one finds the native veee- tation which makes the most at- tractive setting through which the arteries of travel can run. The auto dump has gone, trees, vines, shrubs, wild flowers have covered the scars left by steam shovels and concrete mixers. Roadside parks have sprung up where nigh way strengthening has taken place Instead of waste areas parking fa- cilities and space for picnic par ties have been provided off the travelled portions of the roadways

They show the effect of soil erosion and how 1t Is pre- vented and a large variety of prob lems are met and solved, in order to make Connecticut's highways not only easy to drive on but de- light to the eye as well.

 since the last report" The h. terary Digest will state in its columns tomorrow, "the ratio of Yes ballots for the president has increased in 15 States. The list of marginal States which give Roosevelt less than a per cent margin o fapproval in The Literary Digest Poll now includes 10 States:
 Indiana. Iowa, Kansas, South Dakota. Illinois, Nebraska, Cobra. do, Maine, Massachusetts,, and New Hampshire.
 Seven of those states are or the edge in the final report: In diana, Iowa, Kansas, South Dako' ta, Maine, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. South Dakota Is still nearest the fine with a favvora ble ratio of 50-2S-0.47 per cent. less than last week.

More than out of , are in favor of the New Deal, as shown by the final returns of The Literary D.gost's nation wide poll on Roose- velt's acts and policies the tabu- lation of which will be published in to-morrow's issue of the magazine.
 Vermont is the only one of the forty eight states registered disap- proval which it does by the major ity of 53.62 per cent.
 The number of votes cast totals 1,T72,163, which are reported te- ceived from every section in the nation, including the District of Co., lumbia, The final vote Is 1,OS3,152, or 61.15 per cent. for the New Deal to 6SS.411 against 1t.
 comparison of the ratio of the final returns in favor of Roosevelts s act and policies with the popular vote ratio he received officially in 1882, indicates that he has increas- ed his strength 3.S3 per cent since his election.
 The voters in the poll were asked to indicate for whom they voted in 1892. 459,33S of the poll voters in dicate that they have changed their minds about Roosevelt since his election. An analysis of this switch ing shows an average gain for Roosevelt in the forty eight states of 5.39 per cent.
 The game analysis indicates that Roosevelt has incurred net losses or support among the voters in this New Deal Poll in twenty states and net gains in the other twenty-eight states since 1892.
 The larger losses are tallied in the South and in the agricultural sections while the larger gains are noted in the New England and eastern industrial States and those on the Pacific Coast. The greatest switch from Roosevelt Is shown in South Carolina and the greatest switch to him, over II per cent" in California.
 In the six special polls that The Literary Digest conducted among bankers, clergy. business men. educators. lawyers and physicians. all groups vote in favor of Roose- velt's acts and policies except the bankers.
 The bankers vote 13,795 to 12,- 52S against the New Deal.

turned into a picturesque beauty spot.
 Since 1927 the bureau has plant cd annually over 5000 nursery grown shade trees over two inches in diameter along the highways of our state. They include various varieties of maple, oak, linden, elm, ash, together with sycamore. plane, birch, willow and poplar.
 One little understood feature of the bureaus activities Is its active cooperation with local authorities, civic bodies and other organiza- tions who are seeking to beautify | particular spots by landscapinS and are developing q sense of civic pride in individual property own CTS.
 The Garden Clubs of Connecti- cut are each year supplying shrubs and towering plants to the value of over three thousand dollars which are being planted and cared for by the state authorities.
 Seven Years Along Connecti- cuts Highways" makes good read ing and should be in the hands oi every one interested in making the most of the natural beauty of our state. Commissioner Macdonald and Director Keith are doing a notable piece of work which Is at- tracting attention all over the United States.
 The results already accom- plished by Commissioner Macdon- aid and Mir Keith prove that engi- neering and landscaping can to- gether accomplish wonders in the way of highway construction and 1 parkway development. In laying out new roads the engineer and landscape man should together plan to take every advantage of existing natural attractions and what is equally important every scenic route should be protected from the despoiling hand of com mercialism.
 The police power of the state should be invoked and given au- thority to designate rural high ways as 'scenic routes" to be for ] ever protected from man-made de- 1 facement

as a group the bankers still stand alone in giving Roosevelt a 47.59 per cent. minority ratio of ap. proval.
 "In the other five groups, 54.36 per cent. of the clergy voted Yes; 56.23 per cent. of the business men; 56.SS per cent. of the physi- clans; 53.19 per cent. of the law years; and 67.20 per cent. of the educators all voted Yes in ap- proval of the Roosevelt policies. "The New Deal won majorities among the bankers in only seven- teen states, among the lawyers in twenty-four states, among the business men in thirty-four states, among the clergy in thirty-five states and among the physicians in thirty-five states. The educators in every one of the forty-eight states and in the District of Co., lumbit returned majorities of Yes ballots.
 Hand in hand with the educa- tors, undergraduates among the seventeen colleges have returned a high ratio of approval for tho New Deal. An analysis of the bal lots in this special Literary Di-, gest-College Newspaper poll based on the answers to the question, how did you vote in 1932?' shows that Hoover carried thirteen of the seventeen colleges. Today, the Roosevelt policies have carried all seventeen of those colleges.
 "Of the undergraduates poll voters who voted in the 1892 Presidential election, 6,6S5 voted for Roosevelt in 1892. and S,9S0 voted for Hoover. In the current Literary Digest-College Newspaper poll, 16,293 undergraduates vote Yes on the Roosevelt policies 9,025 vote No That reversal gives Roosevelt favorable ratio of 64.35 per cent. in the final report on the seventeen colleges--2.s per cent. behind the favorable ratio returned by the educators.
 ''In 1892, The Literary Digest Presidential Poll proved to be 9S.65 per. cent. accurate in fore casting Roosevelt's popular vote.
 Now, in 1884, The Literary Di- of Roosevelt's first year has been completed and the returns indi- cate:
 "The President receives a vote of confidence from more than 5 out of 5 of the 1,772,163 Ameri- cans who have returned ballots in the current Literary Digest Poll. Further, The Literary Digest poll has revealed the trend, the shift among those voters in the current Literary Digest poll who have changed their minds about the Roosevelt policies since they cast their ballots in- the Presi dential election of 1882"

How to keep cool is the chief problem of these warm days. One thing you can do to your house that the entire family will appre- ciate is to take up the rugs and put up Venetian blinds to darken the room. Also, try taking down all ornaments except those that are made of glass or white porcelain.

The herb garden is rapidly be- coming an American institution. All sorts of English favorite' are found to grow well in American soil. The best place to plant the herb garden is right outside the kitchen door where it will be handy for the plucking. Herbs that add spice to the cooking and that are easily grown in the average back yard are: tarragon, mint, chives, maJo- ram, sage, parsley. leeks and var ious other members of the onion family.
