strike, left-wing union leaders to.

violence would follow Federal in
tervention in the form Of supply
ing safety crews" made up Of en-
listed men from the United States
Navy or Coast Guard.
Reports came from the West
Coast, where the strike started,
that ship owners might demand
that Navy crews be assigned to
police the idle vessels.
Joseph Curran, chairman of the
seamen'S defense committee, said:
"There will be no holding the
men in line If the ship owners
bring in the Navy and the Coast
GuarIl."
Strike Spreading
The largest Of the ships to be
affected by the strike will be the
United States liner Manhattan,
due to sail for Europe Wednesday.
Meanwhile, the strike spread
rapidly to other East Coast and
gulf ports, with indications that
before the Pacific Coast strike is
settled, the country will be con-
fronted with maritime paralysis
on an unprecedented scale.
Leaders Of the strike here, who
are keeping in close touch with
colleagues in other ports, claimed
early today that 5000 men and IS
ships were involved in the strike

Tonight at II o'clock &c. S.
To Mr.. Roosevelt will go on the
air to say the last word in his Bit
terly fought campaign. His ulti-

guarded against premature re-

prepared to strike back at any
laSt-minute charges of his Repub-
lican opposition.
The President has received con-
fidential reports from Democratic
headquarters in New York city
that he will receive a minimum of
379 electoral votes. Messages have
come in it is "only a question Of
how big the majority is"
Sec Million in New York
Leaders in his home State insist
the President will carry New York
by a comfortable margin. They
base their claims on an anticipated
majority in New York city run

than a million.
This afternoon, Mr.. Roosevelt

In this speech also, he indirectly
answered the challenge Of his Re-
publican opponent, Governor Al
fred M. Landon, to state what he
intended to do about perpetuating

The President reaffirmed his be-
lief in the basic principles of these
two outlawed acts and demanded
to know why those opposing him
should seek for information when
they had no definite program OF
their own.

The Dionne CUNTS Through the
Eyes of My Old Guide


Eyes Of My Old Guide
DERCY HAMILTON, the
y best guide and fisherman
along the whole Gatineau
chain, recently hied himself
to Calender, Ontario for the
single purpose of casting
eyes upon the Dionne quints.
He disappeared upon the precise
date when I needed him most. While
this upset me to begin with, there
was nothing. to do but forgive him
when I learned his motive.
"Couldn't you," / asked, 'shave
had an eyeful Of those kids after
the bass season closed?"
II could that" replied Percy,
stretching his suspenders from un-
der his armpits, "and had just as
good look at 'em as anybody else
leaning over the fence around Doc
tor Dafoe's hospital, where he has
charge of the babies in the name Of
the king, but something said go to
it, Perc.' 1t is only few miles less
than three hundred from my house
to his, just few hours across coun-
try in my tinber-hopping gasoline
tank, and worth two days of any
mans time. sure could have
waited. But being the kind of a
man I am, crazy about children, the
father of four girls of my own, and
with all my wife's womenfolks r'ar-
in to get into my jitney for round
trip to Calender, what the hell was
I to do but say, Come with me to
the quintuplet show and have
look.
Becomes Conducted Tour;
Percy again pulled out his sus-
penders, which popped back with
loud crack like the beaver makes
when slapping the water with his
tail.
"You did exactly the right thing,
MIR. Hamilton, and it is my pleasure
to be among the first to congratu-
late you. How many ladies were in
your party?"
"About five that could see," an
swered my old guide, and no less
than dozen that could only hear.
They seemed to swarm into the
back seat at every crossroad along
the way. You'd have thought that
at least half of them were the moth
ers of the quints and wanted to slip
the old Doc some new stuff on what
was best to be done right away, or
take the consequences. A tire blow
out anywhere along the route and
