Maine, traditionally the nations po-
litical sounding board, votes Mon

Republicans and Democrats alike
feel the outcome will be interpreted
generally as either an Endorsement
or a reputation Of Roosevelt poll
cieS.
A vigorous campaign, with the
New Deal as the major issue, has
stirred keen interest and heavy
vote is anticipated.
Among other things, Maine. pio-
neer dry state. will decide whether
to repeal its prohibition law No
candidate for major office has dis
.cuSSed this issue. While dryS have
been more active than vets, the
consensus of political observers is
that repeal will win. possibly by
margin of > to / They recalled
that in a referendum In 1911 the
drys won by only 1853 votes.

Names first Democratic chief
executive in more than fifteen
years, is expected to be reelected.
Some believe he may defeat by 5000
or 10000 votes his Republican OPP
pOnent. Alfred K Ames, elderly re-
tired timberland operator Mr. Ames
has made but one campaign speech,
in which he said he was against
the sales tax, hog tax, cotton tax
and every other new-fangled tax

Though F. Harold Dubord. former
Democratic national committeeman,
has Waged an energetic campaign
in his first bid for a major public
office. few believe he can defeat

greSsional seats shaped up as fol-
lows:
First DiStrict-Carroll L. Beedy,
Republican incumbent, expected to
defeat Simon M Hamlin. Democrat.

ran, Democratic incumbent, expect
ed to defeat Zelma M Dwinal, Re-
publican.
Third District-Ralph o. Brew
Ster, Republican, expected to de-
feat John G.. Utterback, Democratic
incumbent. In the last election Ut
terback defeated Brewster in

from outside the state to boom the

HOLLEY being the "most bashful
boy in the Twin Cities" Charles
read it and positively boiled! He
took it upon himself to prove that
there is nothing "bashful" about
him at all. And he proved it very
nicely. He'll probably fume all
over again when he reads this, but
Pm used to it by this time.
There is nice-looking young
man by the name of ERNEST
SIMMS enrolled in the School of
Chemistry, but the guy refuses to
go out and get acquainted with the
town. The first gel who is able to
blast him out of hiding REALLY
will have something to her credit.
So far he just WON'T go any
place. Some of us managed to
drag him out one night, but the
next day he was as distantly cool
and aloof as ever. And until you
have seen Simms, you haven't seen
anyone who is cool and aloof!

peace-making efforts, an agree
ment between the management
and the workers to suspend all
overt acts until after a detailed
study by the NRA of the inter
locked questions of production
and wages and hours.
A few minutes after Thomas +.
Mcmahon, president of the United
Textile Workers of America, and
George A. Sloan, chairman of the
cotton textile code authority, with
associates, had signed the agree
ment, the workers representatives
telegraphed all locals to rescind
