and the Democrats IA.
Maine, Vermont and New Hamp-
shire have Republican Governors to-
day, while Democrats hold sway in
the State houses in Massachusetts,
Connecticut and Rhode Island,
There seems no particular reason to
believe that the Republicans will lose
in the gubernatorial contests in
either Vermont or New Hampshire
and Maine has already reelected
its Gov. Barrows.
The Democrats are facing real
contests, however, to retain the gov
ernorships of Massachusetts,, Con-
necticut and Rhode Island.
Record Number Registered.
The largest number of voters in
the history of Massachusetts,, 2,112,-
291, are eligible to 60 to the polls
and vote next Tuesday. Curley man
ayers insist that this added registra-
ton Is in his favor-but the Re-
publicans take very different view.
Both sides have been active in the
registration of new voters.

is seeking fifth term-at the age
OF rs. New England has always been
known as country of sturdy old
age. Gov. Cross is campaigning as
vigorously as any man seeking office
IN his State, speaking several times
day. He was first elected in 1890
taking the Democratic nomination
for Governor when no one thought
1t was worth great deal. He had a
wide following among Yale men-he
had been dean of the Yale Law
School-and he tickled the fancy of
a considerable number of Republi-
cans in addition.
Vanderbilt Runs as a Liberal.
William H. Vanderbilt-of the
Vanderbilts-is seeking to be elected
Governor Of Rhode Island on the
Republican ticket, and some say
he has a chance against Gov. Rob-

imagination Of the voters, his sup
porters say.

The Republicans have chances to
win two Senate seats-one in New

Brown, Democrat, is opposed by
Representative Charles w. Tobey.
Republican, and one In Connecti-
cut. In the latter State Senator
Lonergan, Democrat, is opposed by
John A. Danaher. The odds ap-
pear to favor Tobey in New Hamp-
shire and Lonergan in Connecticut.
There probably will be few changes
IN the political makeup of the
House delegations from the New
England States. The G.. Q. P. may
take couple of seats from the
Democrats in Connecticut.
Maine Swings Back to G. O.P.
Although Maine never voted for
President Roosevelt and stuck to
the Republican cause, the Pine
Tree State did elect Democratic
Governor in 1882 and 1884, and
two out Of the three Representa-
tives elected in those years also
were Democrats. But in 1896 and
this year Maine swung solidly back
to the G.. o. P. In 1884 Massa-
chusetts had two Democratic Sena-
tors and seven members of the
House delegation.
New Hampshire did little back
sliding from the G. o. P. in 1882
when the Democrats elected Sena-
tor Brown over former Senator
Moses.
Back in 1895, Charles F.. Risk.

defeating his Democratic opponent
In a by-election for the House to

however, the district went Demo-
cratic again. Risk is seeking to
stage a comeback next Tuesday.
Vermont has maintained its I'M
blemished record of electing only
Republicans to the Senate and House
and Tor Governor since the Civil
War. 1t shows no real signs of
breaking this tradition now. Senator
Gibson, veteran Republican, is ex-
pected to be returned and Gov.
Aiken, who has shown a surprising
strain of progressivism for a YER
monter. will be reelected.
The New Deal, with its vast spend
ing and equally vast public debt and
huge deficits, gives New Englanders
cold shoulders. 1t is true that in
Massachusetts great numbers of men
and women have been placed on
relief, and that is true in a less
degree in Connecticut and Rhode
Island.
Huge groups in Massachusetts,
Connecticut and the other States in
lesser degree of various nationality,
particularly the Irish, the French,
the Poles and the Italians, have the
leaders guessing. Many of these
voters Of foreign extraction have
lined up with the Democrats. This
has been true of the Irish for long
time and more recently of the other
groups. There are signs that some
OF these groups are leaning now to-
ward the G. O. P.

 Finally he got what he believed was the right answer, so, instead of putting on the seven of trumps and winning the trick, he played the two. Now it was up to declarer, and after considering all of the possible distributions of the trump suit, he refused to ruff, but discard ed a heart instead.
 This play, spectacular as it ap- pears and actually was, was the only way to make the hand against the East and West defense. East returned the heart ten, but North went up with dummy's ace, led the spade from dummy and took the f1nesse. On the next lead of trump Vests king dropped. The trunAps were picked up and the losing dia- mond was discarded on the second high club in dummy.

The defense East and West put up on today's hand was worthy of a better fate. If a player deliberate ly ruffs trick with a low card to force six-spot from the dummy hand, when he could ruff with a seven and win the siX-spot, it is either a very fine play or a very dumb one. However it did not find the declarer mapping.
 West cashed the queen and then the ace of diamonds when his part ner opened the three of diamonds. A small heart was discarded by East.
