COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 7
0.N.SD.-Attracted by the magic
of the name "Donahey," Ohio
voters cast such an avalanche Of
Democratic ballots that Martin
L. Davey today was swept into
the governorship with a host Of
lesser candidates by its mex

hey's margin over Senator Simeon
D. Fess, Republican, increased
by leaps and bounds. rocketing
to 100000 as all but $50 of the
States 1859 precincts reported.
Mr.. Donahey, only man who
was ever elected governor of
Ohio for three successive terms,
found his total vote boosted to
l,082,0O0 with less than a thou
sand precincts out.
It was the greatest triumph
since Senator Fess, himself, de-
feated Charles V. Truax CD for
United States Senator by 404,0 900
in 1928. Then Senator FeSs' vote
reached 1,412,000.
Much smaller was the Davey
plurality over Clarence J. Brown,
Republican candidate for governor.
1t stood at 45,969, with only 939
precincts out of 1859 unreported.

It was a toss up at noon today
between Governor Albert c

as governor, and his Republican
opponent, Harry w. Nice.
Although Mr.. Ritchie had car
ried the city of Baltimore, accord
ing to the latest tabulations, by a
majority Of 21,626, he was trailing
Mr.. Nice in the counties by ap

from this section Mr.. Nice expects

George L. Radcliffe, staunch

Eastern Shore Surprise
Eastern Shore counties pre-

Democrats, who had expected
that the Republicans would pile
up a considerable lead there.
This prediction was based on
the resentment at Eastern Shore

some time ago in sending State
troopers to the Shore to arrest
lynchers of colored man.

BY JULIA A. BONWIT

In an amazing endorsement OF
the New Deal, the Democratic
party today was pilling up re-
turns toward the greatest mid
term numerical majority ever
held by any praty in the United
States House of Representatives
in the history of the country.
This great precedent-shatter-
ing majority depended on the
outcome of contests in 10 doubt
full districts.
With 3O4 Democrats already
sure, as against 1O5 Republicans,
the Democratic party also has a
chance of winning the largest
percentage of House membership
that any party has held since
the Civil War.
G. o. P. Leaders Lose
The Republicans, by losing four
seats to the ProgreSsives in Wis
consin, were apparently doomed
to have the smallest number
held by either party in many
years.
With several of their outstand-
ing leaders swept to defeat in
the landslide, Representative Ber-
trand H. Smell, of New York, Re
publican leader in the House, slid
back into Congress. as did Repre-
sentative Harry Englebright, of
California, Republican whip. For
mer Senator James w. Wads-
worth and Representative J. Ham
ilton Fish were also reelected in
New York.
The returns came as surprise
to the Democrats, who had ex-
pected to lose at least 20 seats.
Postmaster General James A. Far
ley, chairman of the Democratic
National Committee, had pre-
dicted they would maintain their
majority.
The standing so far is:
Democrats, 304; Republicans,
1O5; Pr0gressives, 4; Farmer-La-
borites, 8; in doubt, 10.

GREATEST MAJORITY
IN SENATE AND HOUSE
SINCE GRANTS TIME
BY EARL GOODWIN

BY EARL GODWlN
The American people have given
to President Roosevelt and his New
Deal the greatest evidence OF dppre-
citation within their power.
They have given him Senate with
10 more seats than he had on indugu-
ration day. They have denied the op-
position Republican party more than
l35 seats in the House of Representa-
lives and have elected 800 Democrats.
Both houses of the next Congress will have
more than two-thirds majority of Demo
crafts the first time such proportion has
been elected to Congress since President
Grants administration, when Congress had
a two thirds majority of Republicans in Sen
ate and House.
No President ever has had such support in
mid-term since President Grants day. No
President ever has had Senate with so many
members of his own party.
No party ever has had as effective campaign
chine the Democrats have had in this election No
party in than half century has suffered COM
pete collapse the Republican party, whose leaders
claimed that if they did not win back so seats in the

The Washington times., 1934-11-07

In the keystone State the
entire Democratic ticket is
sweeping the field in a manner
that makes the oldest political
observers rub their eyes. Penn
Sylvania never has been any,
thin but Republican; it has
sent line of Republican Sena-
tors to Washington without a
break since the Civil War. For
Pennsylvania to go Democratic
is like South Carolina going
Republican.
And yet the news keeps pour
ing in that Pennsylvania has not
only elected Joseph Guffey, but
that the Keystone State will
have a heavier Democratic Con-
gressional delegation than usual.
Also, that the Democ; tic State
ticket is winning. 1t is some
thing for historians to note.
State Backed Hoover
Pennsylvania was the only
important State to hang on to
it's Republicanism strongly enough
to give it's SO electoral votes to
Herbert Hoover last time; but
the keystone State is making up
for that this year.

outstanding epubl an rock

tidal wave is dashing in vain.
