CALIFORNIA HAD BIGGEST RUSH IN
 STATE HISTORY

San Francisco, Nov 6 (UP)-- Voters of California rushed to the polls in overwhelming numbers to- day and authorities expressed fear that serious confusion might result when workers sought to vote in the closing hours. In Los An geles and San Francisco full police power and special deputies were sworn in. The election was the hottest contest in quarter of q century of California politics-in- terest drawn to fever heat by the introduction of Upton Sinclair, lifelong socialist, as a democratic candidate for governor. Sinclair's chief opponent is Frank F. MerIl- am, who, as lieutenant governor became acting chief executive last June at the death of Governor James Rolph, Jr. Betting in San Francisco favored Merriam at odds of 2 to l.
 Sinclair interests, however, ig- nored the money angle of the cleo ton and said their candidate had approximately 800,00O sure votes: utopian societies, in organized la bor and among unemployed groups. They said Sinclair would ''pick up'' enough votes from oth- CT sources to win, Merriam's sup. porters claimed he would get practically solid support from re- publicans, and party lines were % split by Sinclair's known socialistic beliefs that Merriam would win

CHAIRMAN CRARY WAS SATISFIED
We'll Pleased At Turn Out Of Democrats On
 Such A Day
WEATHER SCARED OFF
 VERY MANY VOTERS
Vote Was Excellent And Waterbury Democrats
 Upheld Record

''I am more than pleased with the outcome of the cleo tion in Waterbury today. Ger tainly the people had to go to the polls under trying condi- |-tions in view of the weather. Waterbury retains its place in the democratic columns once more. We, nthis city, have always done our part and today's outcome was in ac- cordance with past years performances.
 Early to-day it was feared that the indictment weather would keep the voters home and 1t did. Yet, the electors of the city got out in real fashion this afternoon despite the continued rain and certainly showed their admiration for the city's chief executive.
 "I know that the mayor and all those throughout the state were watching the outcome of the ball. loting here. On behalf of the democratibc town committee want to say that the loyalty shown here is something to be long re- membered and that it should be respected throughout Connecticut as a whole.
 "The democratic organization of Waterbury has been long looked up to by other cities in the state and elsewhere. Therefore, the vote today I think is one of the greatest achievements that has ever been registered considering conditions"

ELECTION HERE
 MORE ORDERLY
 IN ALL HISTORY
Not A Single Claim Of Repeating-No Calls
 For The Police

Today's balloting throughout the city was the most orderly re- corded here in many elections. with not a single claim of repeat ing and with. no calls for police assistance received up to 5:30 this afternoon. Patrolmen who were one duty at all voting districts agreed with tellers and modera- tors that the polling up to press time had been remarkable in its orderliness. @,
 Police headquarters received not a single call for assistance during the morning and afternoon hours, while patrolmen stationed at each booth had no trouble to prevent or alterations to halt.
 With the rainy weather acting as a deterrent the usual hangers on about the voting places were conspicuous by their absence. The rule requiring hystanders to be at least 75 feet away from the voting booth was being ,obeyed literally, and policemen only occasionally had to ask the curious to move away to beyond the legal limit.
 Signs warning of the 75 foot rule were posted near the polling places.
 As far as could be learned no claims of election fraud sof any kind had been reported up to 5:30 o'clock, the firts time. in many elections that such as been the case. There were no allegations of repeating or. of non-registration.

Baltimore, Nov e-(UP}-Mary land voters wentlto the polls under clear skies to-day to determine whether Gov Albert 1C. Ritchie. dem., shall have a fifth term. Vic tory would give him 19 years at the head of his state. longer than any other executive in American history.
 The concensus was that Ritchie would hold only the slimmest of margins over Harry W. Nice. Bal timore. his republican opponent.
 Other democratic candidates generally were expected to win including George L.. Radcliffe, per- sonal friend of President Roose- welt, running against former Sena-' tor Joseph l.

 Violence marked the balloting in several states, with a total of six dead in disorders last night and to-day.
 Rain which cut the early vote in some eastern states had turned to pleasant weather before niid-aftt : ernoon and the last hours of bal Ioting, showed heavy turnout.

SIX LIVES LOST AS VOTING GREW
 MORE EXCITING
By ARTHUR F. DEGREvE


 United Press Stan Correspondent.
 New York, Nov 6. (UP)-Six persons lost their lives to-day as the nation marched to the polls to give the first massed appraisal of the New Deal. The tense situation in Pennsylvania where the admin istration actively defended it's re- covery projects flared into violence and five men were killed in riot ing. Another life was sacrificed at Steele, Mo.
 Early reports indicated a heavy vote was cast.
 First returns. bore out earlier predictions that the democrats would lose several seats in the House of Representatives but would capture republican desks m the Senate. Continued democratic control of both Houses appeared assured.
 Chief interest of democratic party leaders was cehtered in out come of scattered state contests. Multiple issues injected into the national campaign made impossi- ble the interpretation of to-day's election results as an accurate ba- rometer of the nations feeling to- ward the New Deal.
 Repeal of constitutional amend ments bearing on prohibition was an issue in Florida, Idaho, Nebras- ka, Wyoming, West Virginia, Kan sas and South Dakota.
 A total of 57 constitutional re- visions were submitted to voters in the AZ states who went to the polls to-day. Maine held it's elec- tion in September. It sent a re- publican senator, republican ani two democratic congressman back to Washington. This was the same political alignment the state had in the 73rd Congress.

 UNDER ATTACK

 Steele, Mo. Nov. 6-(UP)-Two election fights, allegedly over trans. pcrtation of negro voters by white persons. left one dead and four in jured, one critically, near here to- day.
 Horace Terrell. Ss. was killed and his father, John E. Terrell, 65, was injured when carload of white men, without warning opened fire on them after an argu- ment over transportation of two negroes by the Ferrells to vote. Later in the day and not far from the first disorder, mob of white men set upon Clarence Pos ey, white farmer, and a load of negro tenants he was transportirg to the polls, and attacked them with black jacks and pistol fire.

High Lights That Featured Voting
 Throughout City
Mayor Hayes and Congressman Goss Both Voted In Fourth District But Did Not Meet At Pos-Cir-
 cular Peddlers Were Absent Today

Mayor Frank Hayes, the demo- cratic candidate for lieutenant governor, and Congressman E.-W. Goss. the g.o.p. nominee for re- election, both voted in the fourth district. They did not meet in the polling place, however. Never theless, it is needless to say that they both voted straight tickets. It is not necessary, either, to say how they voted outside of the word "opposite.''
 Mayor Hayes was accompanied when he went to vote by his moth CT. When they entered the polling place they were the recipients of hearty greetings from all sides. Mayor Hayes refused to vote early this morning, explaining that he preferred to wait and take his mother with him to the election headquarters in the fourth dis trict.
 Workers outside the polls who usually pass out circulars each year were conspicuous by their ah- sence to-day. The rain put them out of commission, therefore the 75-foot boundary mark was not needed as the polling went on throughout the day.
 There was a healthy race on early this morning among those seeking the distinction of being the first ones to cast their votes in their respective polling place. Town Committeeman John How ard of the democratic party and Town Committeeman George King ston of the republican party al- most bumped into each other III the 17th district as they strove 10 cast the first ballot. Committee man Howard won out and after wards declared that he hoped that his victory in the race for the vot-. ing machine would be a good omen in the outcome of the entire state election.
