A Roosevelt landslide that shook
the nation today left but two states
clinging to Republicanism
Maine and Vermont alone cIutched
the beaten banner of Alfred M. Ian
don.
New Hampshire, after marching
with him all night, finally turned in
to the victorious oolumns Of Roose-
velt.
All the other states already had
given the Democratic presidential
ticket huge majorities IN the electoral
college, and sent new recruits to the
previously toRheavy list Of Demo-
cratic Senate and House members
The apparent electoral vote stood
at SOB for Roosevelt, eight for Ian
don.
The final thinning of the Republi-
can ranks left them with the SINAI

1912, when Taft had just sight votes
Not since 1920, when James Monroe
was reelected with just one dissent

Raleigh, Nov 4.-The legislature
should make provision for the re-
treatment and re-surfacing of not less
than 1000 miles of surface treated
highways in the State each year,
Chairman Capus M. Waynick, of the
State Highway and Public Works
Commission, said today. The State
has approximately 1000 miles of sur
face treated roads. Since the normal
life Of a surface-treated road is about
four years, the re-surfacing Of LOCO
miles of these roads each year would
make it possible to resurface the en-
fire 1000 miles every four years and
thus keep them all in first-class con-
dition. Waynick pointed out.
.It would cost less to re-surface
these roads every four years than to

The investor who knows the stor-
ies of the lives of Rockefeller, of
Sinclair, of Doheny and others who
have made tremendous fortunes
from a modest beginning realizes
that everyone cannot give up the or
binary pursuits of life and enter
personally into the oil business. He
wishes to invest his savings and
keep at work at his job.
Studying the life of Harry Sim
clair, we find that he was once a
clerk in a store. a shoe clerk and
later drug clerk. He failed in the
drug business. He accidentally shot
himself in the foot while rabbit
hunting and an insurance company
paid him $1,000 Armed with that
$4,000 he chose to enter the OIL
BUSINESS to make himself rich.
He did not buy bonds, although he
would have had no fear of losing
his money. He did not invest in
stocks although he could have spread
$4,000 among many oil companies
and taken a chance on the law OF
averages. He first put some study
some brain work-into the oil
industry Then he chose q location
for a PERSONAL venture. He
bought tract of ground in an oil
field. Oil was found on this tract.
and he profited by that success and
kept on building and building that
$4,000 into a tremendous fortune.
His investment was made on his
