Roosevelt's appeal to labor, Or

OF the small business men was we'll
understood. Republican efforts to
stem this tide with lsst-minute cam

proved ineffective. The labor vote ap-
parently was set.
Even Takes Connecticut.
Starting with the solid South" as
o nest egg, with 146 electoral votes,
President Roosevelt rolled up early
leads in all the great populous States
Of the North and Middle West, in
cluding New York, Illinois, Ohio,
Pennsylvania and Indiana. Even in
rock-ribbed Republican Connecticut
Roosevelt ran ahead Of Landon by
100000 votes. Connecticut was one

The overwhelming vote Of support
given the Roosevelt New Deal was
staggering to the Republicans, who
concentrated their fire on the Roose-

was telling gathering at Newark,
n. j., that liberty was endangered.
The President bitterly eXcoriated
what he termed an attempt by
handful of employers to sabotage
the social security act, when he faced
on October 90. The same day John
Hamilton, Republican chairman, dis
puted the Presidents claim that So
cial security funds collected from the
workers and employers were to be
placed in a special trust fund, con-
tending they would go into the gen.
eral fund of the Treasury.
Selling upon the Presidents refusal
10 discuss with the press his N. r. A.
attitude, Landon made the most of 1t
at Madison Square Garden on Octo-
ber 20. He challenged Roosevelt to
"tell us where you stand on N. r. A.,
A. A. A. and Executive powers, adding,
mo one can be sure"
Ignoring the challenge, the Presl-
dent reviewed the achievements of the
New Deal before an enthusiastic as

The candidates themselves summed
up the issues of the campaign in their

Halloween.
Roosevelt's Statement.
The paramount issue, according to
President Roosevelts address TO
cheering throng In Madison Square
Garden, was the preservation" of the
victory won by the people in 1882
when they restored" American
democracy.
The chief issue, as explained to .
vast crowd in st. Louis by Gov. Lam
don, was restoration of good gov
ernment."
Roosevelt enumerated objectives of
the New Deal as betterment of labor,
farm conditions, the unemployed sit
uation, rome owners, social security
and banking.
Landon said the Republican goal
was full recovery and re-employ-
ment" through "unshackling" of 'pri-
Sate enterprise and initiative and
economy in government.
Both candidates voiced eleventh.
hour reminders" of the issues in
brief radio addresses on election eve.

charging that President Roosevelt had
the support of the Communists; that
he was endeavoring to upset the Con-
stitution and to bring about a social
revolution. The voters either did not
take them seriously or did not care.
Everywhere the people gave the Pres
ident credit for trying to help them
out of the mess in which the depres-
sion of 1929 and the ensuing years had
left them.
Business Data Aids Roosevelt.
The betterment in business through
out the country during the last year
proved, also, a great asset to the
Roosevelt ticket. Tn, people who gave
this matter their attention apparently
decided that it was better not to swap
horses while on their way to greater
prosperity than they had known for
half a dozen years.
One thing that the election clearly
demonstrated-thev voters were not to
be turned aside from the contest be-
tween the Republican and Democratic
parties. William Lemke, the presiden-
tial candidate of the Union party,
sponsored by Father Coughlin and
his Union for Social Justice, got no
where. The Lemke vote, even in his
home State, North Dakota, was incon-
siderable.
Democratic and Republican leaders
today were assaying the results of
yesterdays election. The Democrats
were overjoyed. The Republicans were
completely stunned. The G. o. P.
leaders had been extremely confident
that Landon would make good show
ing and some of them, including John
Hamilton, the chairman of the Ma
tional Committee, had been confident
that the Kansas Governor would be
elected President. They had believed
that a great undercurrent of anti
Roosevelt sentiment was at work.
Landon Slow to Concede.
Not until early this morning was
Gov. Landon ready to concede defeat
and Hamilton, his campaign manager,
continued to insist that the later re-
turns from the rural districts would
show Landon winner in many States.
He had maintained this attitude, al
though strong supporters of Landon
had early in the evening conceded
the Landon cause was hopeless, among
them the Kansas City Star, the Chi
cago Tribune, the New York Ameri-
can, owned by William Randolph
Hearst, and the Chicago Daily News,

President Roosevelt received 81 per
cent of the popular vote. In 1882,
his percentage in complete returns
was 5S to 81 per cent for Hoover.
Voters turned out in such numbers
that the record total of 2.l72,05 cast
for the major party candidates in
1892, may be exceeded.
The Democrats gained congressional
strength.
One veteran Republican Representa-
tive, Florence P. Kahn, was defeated
by newcomer, Franck Havenner,
Democratic San Francisco city-county
supervisor.
