NEW YORK, N. Y, October "a
The political tide in this State appar-
entity is running in favor of the Demo-
cratic candidates, and most nom
partisan observers here believe that
if this trend continues New Yorks Al
electoral votes will 60 to President
Roosevelt
Every authentic poll that has been
taken shows that the Democrats will
take the city by an unprecedented
plurality. The Literary Digest's poll
indicates that the city will go Demo-
cratic by slightly more than two to
one. which would give the President
a plurality of approximately 100000
here. The straw vote canvass con-
Quoted by the Daily News shows the
city going Democratic by more than
80 per cent, which, on the basis Of
registration of nearly 1900, 900 and a
probable vote of 100000, would give
the President and Gov. Herbert H.
Lehman pluralities Of nearly a mil
lion and half.
Polls taken by political leaders indi-
cate that the right answer probably
lies somewhere between these figures,
which would mean that the Demo-
Gratis will take the city by plurality
of at least 100000 votes. The
chances of the Republicans rolling up
q plurality that large upstate and
in Nassau and Suffolk Counties on
Long Island are remote. The Presi-
dents 1882 plurality was 596, ,987 in
the State and S7l, ,l2o in this city.
City Registration Up 20 Per Cent.
The increase in registration up
State has been approximately 10 per
cent, while in the city it was % per
cent. If the Republicans take so per
cent of the estimated upstate vote
of 100000, their plurality will be
only $4,000 and few observers here
think that will be enough to overcome
the Democratic lead in the city. The
States vote is split on a ratio of
slightly more than IL to 10 between
upstate and the city, respectively.
The Gallup poll has swung in favor
of the Democrats on a Statewide
basis, giving President Roosevelt SO
per cent of the major party vote. This
was a swing of per cent in the Presi-
dents favor in two weeks. The Lit
erary Digest continues to, give the
State to Gov. Alfred M. Landon, de-
spite the overwhelming Democratic
vote in the city. while the Daily News
indicates that the President and Gov.
Lehman will run strongly. even in Re-
publican areas upstate. The News Is
predicting that the President and Gov.
Lehman will win the State by a plu-
rality of more than 100000. and its
poll indicates that the figure will be
more than 100000.
On the basis of the major straw
polls Gov. Lehman Is running we'll
ahead of William F. Bleakley, Repub-
lican candidate for Governor. Mr..
Bleakley, former justice of the Su-
preme Court, Westchester. apparently
will trim down Gov. Lehman's vote
some in the city, but the Governor is
likely to get strong vote in upstate
industrial centers. An analysis of the
various straw polls shows that the
Governor will take the city by a plu-
rality of approximately 100000, and

NEW HAMPSHIRE RACE
SPEEDS UP NEAR END
BY ]. j. MCCARTHY,

special correspondent OF Inc SUR.
MANCHESTER, N. H., october "a.
With election little more than a
week away New Hampshire voters are
in the center of a campaign growing
hotter each day. Many angles make
1t difficult to predict the outcome OF
the election with any degree of Ger.
tainty, as the strength of cross cur
rents is the enigma facing political
dopesters.
It has been reported the Demo-
cratic National Committee has con-
ceded New Hampshire, but Chairman

State Committee went to New York
this week and received National Chair
man James A. Farley's denial the
Republican victory had been admitted.

Pennsylvania Is battle-ground
As Campaign Dra,os to Close
State Continues Doubtful - Scene of
Final Roosevelt Appeal to Elec-
tOrate Is Debated.

election results, and the disclosure
that the Democrats have whitfield the
Republican lead means the close race
is even closer than had been assumed
before registration figures were tabu-
lated to the point where final esti-
mates became possible.
Close Fight Indicated.
Aside from the potential voting
strength disclosed in enrolment fig
ures. there are a number of political
factors which indicate the fight will
be close.
The advantage of efficient organiza-
tion is nearly all on the side of the
Democrats. They have a thoroughly
disciplined and hard-working nucleus
of Federal and State jobholders as
we'll as pay roll appointees Of cities
and counties in the Western end of
the State. Many of these are young
Democrats. very enthusiastic. In
Pennsylvania there are about 375 900
relief cases, either on the dole. or
w. P A., and the Republican clamor
of coercion of these persons has at
least some grains of truth. In addi-
tion, Roosevelt has the support of
organized labor, including John l..
Lewis union coal miners, through
Labor's Non-Partisan League. which
is highly organized, looking to 1910.
All those organizations will see to
it the Roosevelt vote goes to the
polls. The claim that Roosevelt is
responsible for the upswing in busi-
ness and increased employment will
draw some votes to the President which
the holder-relief-labor organiza-
tions cannot influence.
BY contrast the Republicans lack
the efficient organization they for
merly commanded when they con-
trolled patronage. Instead they must
depend largely upon a volunteer Or
ganization, or workers paid only for
the election period. Neither of those
groups is as efficient in manning the
polls as jobholders who know their job
is at stake in the returns of their
district.
Republicans Harm0nized.
The Republicans volunteer organi-
zation includes a group of women
working with unusual fervor, and has
enlisted farmers, professional men and
some small business men who never
have been active in politics until this
year. There is harmony among the
Republicans and they hope for aid
through election day flarebacks against
the Democratic State administration,
including rows over patronage and
leadership. AL Smiths walk, the quiet
desertion Of Roosevelt by conserv-
ative Democrats, the Lemke vote, all
mean subtractions from the Roosevelt
strength even if not, in all cases, new
votes for Landon.
Add to these factors the protests
over New Deal radical policies and its
support by Communists, the rising cost
of living, the prospect of higher ma
tional and State taxes, and politics in
w. P. A-and the Republicans believe
they have enough campaign assets to
offset the loss of the jobholder or
ganization which did such effective
work for the party for four decades.

BAY STATE VOTER
REGISTRATIONS UP
Democrats Claim Advantage
as Enrolment Hits New
Record.
BY w. e. MULLINS,

Special Correspondent Of The Star.
BOSTON, October 24.-All records
for registration of voters have been
broken in Massachusetts,. In Boston
alone the registration figures reached
total of $4,000, which is $4,000
more than the peak reached in 1894.
1t is generally assumed this lively in
terest in the election indicates a
record-breaking vote with approxi-
mately 100000 citizens now eligible
to go to the polls.
The Democrats claim distinct ad-
vantage in this new registration and
the huge gain in the predominantly
Democratic city of Boston would bear
out this claim, although the registra-
ton increase has been general, with
the Republican sections piling on new
names as well as the Democratic Sec
ton.
The most spectacular fight here is
being waged for the United States
Senate seat voluntarily given up by
Senator Marcus A. Coolidge. This
fight is being waged between Gov.
James M. Curley and Republican
Representative Henry Cabot Lodge.
jr. grandson of the late distinguished
United States Senator Of the same
name. with Thomas c. O'Brien. the
Union party candidate. a relatively
unimportant contender.
Presidential Race Submerged.
In the general scramble for su-
premacy among the numerous candi.
dates on the two State tickets, the
contest for the presidential electoral
vote has been submerged, even with
James Roosevelt, the Presidents eld-
est son. making one-man campaign
throughout the commonwealth in the
interests of the national ticket.
The Presidents visit here in mid
week undeniably stimulated his cam
paign Just as the previous visit of
Rev. Charles E. Coughlin quickened
interest in the fight O'Brien is wag-
ing against the election of Gov. Cur
ley. Truthfully speaking. the Union
party ticket of Representative Will
liam Lemke and O'Brien for Presi-
dent and Vice President has been lost
in the scramble.

dents visit here. has begun to use
his influence, but he has been re-

ing only for the Presidents re-elec-
tion. He has been frank enough to
concede that Gov. Landon will carry
the State in the event Father Cough
lin produces as many as loo, 1000 votes
for Lemke and O'Brien.
Smith Won't Visit Boston.
Father Coughlin is expected to re-
turn here in an effort to counteract
President Roosevelt's visit. The plan
to bring Alfred E. Smith to Boston
has been abandoned, while Gov. Lam
dons spokesman here will be John
Hamilton, the National Committee
chairman. who will be the principal
speaker at the chief Republican rally
in Boston next Saturday night.
Observers here believe that the
State has become a battle ground,
where it formerly was considered rea-
sonably safe for Gov. Landon, but
there is scant chance that Gov. Cur
ley can defeat Lodge for the United
States Senate.
