Union Party Confused

Union Party Confused
 The union party congressional race was somewhat confused today, when, at the last moment, it was announced that Frederick w. Puckey had been endorsed once more for the congressional post by Rev. Charles Coughlin. It was be- lieved that tonight, when the write in" slips are checked the Puckey vote will have taken away somewhat from that of Mrs. Lydia Ayotte, who has been ofi1cial union party candidate for the past two weeks.
 The polls were thrown open at o'clock this morning and will not close until 6 o'clock tonight. There was little or no confusion and aug. mented police force under the di- rection of Superintendent of Police William J. Roach kept the trafflc moving and things orderly in gen. eral.
 All Time Record
 At il o'clock this morning 16,810 votes had been cast out of the city's total of 42,6i2. This was an all-time record for the city. Last year, fin the city election, only 16,7l6 votes had -4-4=-4-------- ------------------ tural l-lnanufacturing region. The presidential election, always an iri1- portant factor in stete contests, dominated 1936 campaigning in the area from, the wheat fields of the Dakotas to the steel mills of north- ern Indiana.
 The campaign trails of President Roosevelt and administration speak CTS and Landon and Knox criss- crossed the middle west. Landon toured Illinois four times, Knox three times, MT. Roosevelt twice. Their appeal for votes centered around social security among fac- tory workers and agricultural poli- cies among farmers.
 NEW JERSEY DOUBTFUL
 Trenton, N. J., Nov. 3.--(UP)-New Jersey, one of the doubtful states, sent the greatest army of voters in its history to the polls today.
 It was expeced that almost all of the 2,135, 900 registered voters, an increase of 120,000 over 1032, would cast their ballots before the polls closed at 8 p. m. tonight.
 The issue of Roosevelt or Landon will be decided in the densely pop ulated counties of the metropolitan area where democratic Hudson county, home of Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City, is pitted against republican margins in Es- sex, Bergen, Morris and Union coun- ties. Passaic county used to be in- cluded in this group but four years ago 1t switched to President Roose- welt with a substantial majority.
 PACIFIC COAST STATES
 San Francisco. Nov. 3.-tUP)-- The Pacific coast states--California, Oregon and Washington--were ex- pected to give a majority of their votes to the candidacy of President Roosevelt today, but republican leaders made last minute claims on a strong shift in favor of Gov Ali M. Landon.
 California, which went over- whelmingly into the democratic cole umn in 1932, appeared almost cer- tain to support MT. Roosevelt again. Betting commissioner in San Fran cisco quoted the Roosevelt Garner ticket at 2 1-2 to 3 to 1 favorite.
 Oregon betting commissioners re- ported odds of 3 to 1 that the state would be carried by President Roose- welt, and Landop money was scarce.
 Tn Washington, both sides claim cd victory, but betting generally fa- vored the democrats.

I GIRLS VANISH
IN NEW TOWN
MYSTERY

NORTHFIELD, Mass, Oct. 80
UN.S0 search spread through
out New England and into New
York State today for two young
girls who vanished under mysteri-
Gus circumstances, one after swim
ming at the Northfield Seminary
pool and the other after working
Is a waitress at the school.
Thus we're provided two new
battling cases for this town, which
in 1884 unSuccesSfuly sought So
luton of the shotgun murder of
DIR. Elliott Speer, headmaster Of
Mt. Hermon School for Boys, and
two months ago was puzzled by
the death Of Miss Mary Barnard,
II, Of Hatfield, found drowned in
the seminary pool.
Since Tuesday night no trace
has been found of Miss Phyllis
Manning, IA, Greenfield High

granddaughter of Police Chief
Thomas ]. Manning of that CITY,
The other missing girl is Miss
Ruth McGown, II, daughter Of
George McGown, engineer at the
seminary. She has been missing
since August II when she failed
to return from a party.
Announcement of his daughters
absence was made by McGoWn
shortly after relatives of Miss
Manning revealed her mysterious
disappearance.
McGown said he reported the
disappearance of his daughter

some time ago. State police de-
clared they had no record of any
search having been made for the
girl.
Miss Manning was last seen
Tuesday night when she left the
pool with four chumS who attended
a swimming club lesson. The girls
said Miss Manning told them she
had "date" and would be taken
home by George Clark. Clark ar
rived at the seminary, he told po-
lice, and waited 20 monutes before
he made inquiries. He was told
she had departed Is minutes ear
lier, but he insisted he had not
seen her leaving the building.
One possible clue was being
checked in Springfield today.

the last session of Congress, makes
no provision for collective bargain
ing and under its terms the govern
ment is not prohibited for purchas-
ing goods from the concern which
has shown the bitterest antagonism
towards labor.
Officials of the International AS
sociation of Machinists, some of
whose members are on strike in
Remington-Rand plants, moved i'm
mediately to block the contem-
plated purchase. They pointed out
an installation of the Remington
Rand filing system would mean the
Board would be forced to continue
that system as each office equip
ment manufacturing company has
its own filing system.
1t was also pointed out that the
Social Security Board would have
a precedent for refusing to give the
order to Remington-Rand. Recently
Secretary of Interior Harold L.
Ickes cancelled steel contract with
the Jones & Mclaughlin Steel Cor
poration on the grounds that the
concern was unfair to organized
labor.

affects the working people, in that
certain types of people neglect or
fail to pay their taxes and then
condemn the laboring people for
asking for a just wage from these
units of government. Also it in
jures the old, poor people who are
entitled to old age pensions. Every
time that there is deliberate chisel-
ing on the payment Of taxes where
the property owner is able to pay,
a condition develops where the pen
sion fund is injured.
This delinquency is also detri-
mental to the widows pension fund
and is one of the causes which here
tofore has held up the prompt pay
ment of the city employees and
which has compelled them at times
to sacrifice their warrants at
heavy discount to the very same
people who have helped to cause
this condition by the non-payment
of taxes.

the investigation going on concern
ing alleged police corruption. A
short time ago he stated that a
newspaper poll had been made
whether to carry on the investiga-
tion or not and the people voted
overwhelmingly to have it con-
tinued.
The Oakland-Frisco bridge, a re-
markable engineering feat will be
opened for traffic on November lst,
according to Mr.. Harrington. This
structure is 8 miles long and was
erected at a cost of seventy million
dollars. Another interesting event
that is transpiring at Frisco is an
attempt by the Railway Company
there to establish the one-man
railway car system. The company
cites Milwaukee, and other cities
OF similar size, to prove that this
type of operation can be very eff
fective.
All along the coast, according to
Harrington, the people appeared to
be in favor of President Roosevelt,
as was indicated many times in the
motion picture theatre. Whenever
Roosevelt was shown on the screen
the people applauded, and when
ever Landon or Hearst were shown,
the people booed. The Trades and
Labor Council is glad to have Tim
back again in their midst.

THE FILM CORNER
Conducted by the New Film
Alliance

ROMEO AND JULIET - There
has been a great deal of trumpet
blowing in connection with this lat
est translation of Shakespeare to
the screen, but we must admit the
finished product deserves it. The
movie has been skillfully cast with
players like Norma Shearer, Leslie
Howard, Basil Rathbone, Edna May
Oliver, to name only a few, giving
splendid performances. John Barry
more perhaps -Mercutio's Mer-
cutio in his gaiety and wit, but he is
funny, so there's no use picking a
fight. The original play has been
cut in places to permit more rapid
pacing, but the cutting is well done,
and like the photography, direction,
acting, settings, etc, with respect
and reverence for this classic love
story.
TO MARY WITH LOVE-The in
teresting angle to this story of the
deterioration of marriage which
began in 1925 is the attempt to sup
ply background taken out of
newspaper headlines. But this de-
vice is not sufficient to cover the
thin story about wealthy young
man who went to seed, his wife who
suffered while it happened, and
their best friend who tried to be
honorable helpful and remained
faithful to his love for the unhappy
wife
SEVEN SINNERS - An English
made detective story starring Ed
mund Lowe and Constance Cum
mings. In the tradition of "The
Thin Man"-attempting to combine
murder mystery and comedy-it is
handicapped by poor story about a
criminal whose pastime is wrecking
trains. There are a few exciting
moments, the direction is interest
ing, but the heavy scenario writing
keeps Seven Sinners" from inclu-
sion in the class with some of the
more recent and racier American
mystery dramas.
MY AMERICAN WIFE-A titled
foreigner marries the daughter of
rich but crude American millionaire,
much to the disgust of the latter.
When the foreign count (Francis
Lederer) to the disappointment of
his social climbing mother-in-law
(Billie Burke) turns out to be lad
who likes simple American people
and their democratic ways, he en-
dears himself to his formerly hostile
and suspicious father-in-law (Fred
Stone.) Unimportant and absurd
in many places, there are amusing
moments.
YOURS FOR THE ASKING-An
other crook picture with George
Raft, whom we for one are finding
rather hard to take these days.
What saves this story of cheating
cheaters from complete dullness is
the presence in the cast of such
competent comics as James Gleason,
Lynne Overman, Edgar Kennedy
and Reginald Owen. Ida Lupino re-
veals that she too has talent as
comedian.

California Court Refuses
Change Of Ruling On
Mooney Case Referee

SAN FRANCISCO. - (FP) - The
California supreme court has denied
a motion of George T. Davis, coun-
sci for Tom Mooney, that it void g
recent order empowering Referee
A. E. Shaw to pass on findings OF
fact and credibility of witnesses in
the 13-month habeas corpus hear
ings in San Francisco.
Davis argued that the enlarge
ment of Shaw's powers was ex post
facto legislation. Shaw, an obscure
attorney, had originally been ap-
pointed merely to certify the record
of the hearings.
Meanwhile, James F. Brennan, as
sistant to former District Attorney
Charles M. Fickert, who prosecuted
Warren K. Billings, was badly de-
feated for the Democratic nomina-
ton for Congress in state primaries.
