campaign ON Inrce Lines.
Democratic leaders are planning
their campaign along three lines:
First, Prosperity regained," on the
theory that business has increased
very greatly; second, Roosevelt, the
humanitarian" and third, that the
cost Of recovery was justified, no mat
ter how high the figure has run. The
last Is in reply to the Republican
charges Of Roosevelt spending and
waste, a huge public debt and in
creased taxes.
In addition the Democrats are set
tling into their stride with accusa-
tions of huge slush funds to defeat
Roosevelt and other Democratic can
didates at the polls.
The Republicans counter with
charges that public money Is being
used to win the election for the New
Dealers, and that w. p. A. workers
and others on relief are being coerced
into registering and voting as Demo-
Gratis.
The Democrats are showing them
selves sensitive to the results of news
paper and magazine polls" straw
votes, which have indicated that Gov.
Landon has q chance Of winning the
presidential election. Charles Michel
son, director Of publicity for the DEM
ocratic National Committee, sounded
off yesterday.
Swing in Polls Predicted.
1.-THE straw polls" said Nicholson,
"are of value-to the outfits that are
selling them to the newspapers-and
to add to the entertainment Of the
occasion. So do the Pigments of imagi-
nation that are being published as
news, but that is all they amount to.
Let me turn prophet for q moment
and set down my firm conviction that
every one Of the straw ballotings worth
noticing will, on its last issue, before
the election, swing. clear around and
forecast Roosevelt's victory-and they
will not be stingy in the estimates of
his majority then"
The straw votes four years ago in
dicated that Roosevelt would win, and
they so Indicated early in their tabula-
tions. A great, deal depends upon
which side seems to be winning, when
1t comes to making estimates of the
value Of these polls.
Up in Philadelphia registration of
voters is under way. It shows q large
registration with the Republicans reg
istering three to every two Democrats.
Both sides appear to be satisfied with
the result However. If the voters
cast their ballots the way they are
registering, the carrying of Pennsylva-
mia for Roosevelt would appear to be
too great task for the Guffey-Earle
machine.
