BOTH PART|ESS SEE
. ELECTION VICTORY
G. O. P. and Democrats Are
Optimistic of Results
Next Month.

Republicans and Democrats en-
liven the congressional campaign to-
day with statements of optimism over
prospective results in the November
elections. Statements from rival
camps, follow:
: Representative Hamilton Fish, Re-
publican of New York, said:
> The Republican party has greater
hopes of real comeback in the No
svember elections than ever before in
Its cut Of Office history"
Senator M. NJ. Logan, Democrat of
Kentucky, former chief justice of the
Kentucky Supreme Court, declared:
There is no one who can point to
any law enactment by the Congress,
or any act of the executive branch
of the Government. since Mr.. Roose-
welt became President, which impairs
the liberty of any citizen, or group of
citizens within the Nation
Pledge Repudiated.
The Republican Senatorial Congress
sional Committee in a statement as
serted:
President Roosevelt repudiated the
pledge he made to the American Con-
TgreSs and the American people in his
= budget message = From that time

has been no attempt to check the wild
.extravagance of the % bureaus ladling

= America First, Inc, new organi-
Ratlon, said in a statement:
-, Definite proof that the brain trust
of the New Deal in both the last and
previous sessions of Congress put one
over on the rubber stamp Congress in
both those sessions is at last uncov-
cred. BY secret and artfully planned
advance measures these agents of the
Federal Administration Scuttled all
private enterprises and put the Fed
eral Government in all lines of busi-
ness under charters and franking priv
hegeS that no private corporation could
possibly compete with and stay SOL
vent"
In his statement, issued through the
Democratic National Committee. Sen
ator Logan said:
The vociferous noise about liberty
and the Constitution, made by those
opposed to the New Deal, affords
grounds for mild amusement on the
part Of any who have given thought
. to the true meaning of liberty and the
purposes Of the Constitution.
"PIunderers Give Alarm"
when any government undertakes
to bring about equality of opportunity
and the prevalence of justice among
the whole people there will be some
who believe that the right to plunder
is divine and that they will give the
alarm that the liberties of the people
are endangered"
To verify his claims of C. o. P.
comeback next month, Representative
Fish said Republicans held two ma
tional offices in the Maine election,
despite an allotment to that State of
about $25, 10000 by the Federal Gov
eminent "in the final week of the
: campaign; that in Connecticut's State
election. October /, Republicans were
