For two weeks the battle-cry of the
Hoey and Graham camps has been
stop Mcdonald" Is that responsible
for the fact that during the week Nc
Donald lost Ia points and that Hoey
gained IL points while Graham pick
ed up 6 of 1 point? Will the trend
continue? Or will it subside? With the
first primary only a little more than
three weeks away it is readily seen
that if HOey and Graham, or either,
continue to gain at the present rate
they will still fall far short of over
taking Mcdonald. In fact, Hoey's
rate of gain during the past week will
have to be four times as fast during
the next three weeks in order to over
take the leader, while Graham's rate
of gain will have. to be stepped up
more than so times. These SUPPOSE
tons do not take into consideration
any losses Mcdonald may suffer. If
he loses ground during the next three
weeks as he has during the past week
then Hoey will have to gain only
twice as fast, Graham only Is times as
fast.
From the Graham camp comes the
argument that his campaign was later
getting underway than McDonald's or
Hoey's and that he will show pheno-
menal strength in the election. If that
is true the straw vote will shortly rec
ord bulge in the Graham vote be-
