blow suffered by the New Deal and is
undoubtedly important in view of that
states large share of electoral votes.
In Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan,
New Hampshire, Wisconsin, New Jer-
sey, South Dakota and Oregon, the
Republican tide rolled upward re-
lentlessly. In New York, Thomas E.
Dewey made a remarkable run, and
while it is regrettable from the Repub-
lican viewpoint as well as the view
point of good government that he was
not victorious, the odds were too heavy
against him what with the vast spend
ing power, the federal and Tammany
machines and the aid of the under
world all against him.
In Maryland, Governor Nice was de-
feated by his Democratic opponent
for the governorship also as the result
of odds too great to be overcome. In
cluded were the studied vituperation
and reiterated misrepresentation of
the opposing side, which cunningly
clouded the actual handicaps under
which the Nice administration was
compelled to suffer in carrying out
it's program. Governor Nice made
good, hard fight, nevertheless.
The forty-eight-hour marriage law
appears to have been adopted by a
large majority in the referendum on
that measure. While the law was be-
lieved by a number to be far short of
what it should be, the concensus ap-
pears to have been that it was a step
in the right direction. The income tax
amendment and the lottery amend
ment were properly defeated, while
the judicial amendment, providing for
an extra judge in the Second Eastern
Shore) district, was scarcely a ques-
tion for opposition as that appears to
have been needed.
West Virginia, with its terrible
handicap OF $4,000 registered
Democratic majority did splendidly all
things considered, having defeated
Ramsey, the rubber stamp representa-
tive in the First, or Wheeling, district,
where New Deal trade and tariff poll
cies played large part, this being d
largely industrial district, by an un-
expectedly large plurality, while the
voters also whitfield down Democratic
majorities in other districts to a
marked extent. AS noted by Walter
S. Hallahan, Republican national COM
mitteeman for that state, this is pre-
liminary to taking them all over in

ON THE ROAD BACK

THAT the political tide has def
nitely turned against the New Deal
experimentation and fiscal mismanage-
ment was demonstrated in no uncer-
tain terms in Tuesdays elections.
The Roosevelt upset was far greater
than had been anticipated by Republi-
can leaders as along the Atlantic sea-
board, in the Midwest and on to the
Pacific one Democratic administration
after another toppled before the tide
of opposing votes; and the Republican
increase in national Legislative seats
went considerably beyond the mini
mum that had been established by
most political observers as the mark
below or above which definite repudia-
tion of Roosevelt and his New Deal
could be determined. The exact extent
Of this change has not been deter
mined at this writing further than
that the Republican gains were above
the minimum, while the number was
growing as later returns began COM
ing in, The minimum which had been
generally agreed upon was fifty House

Associated Press reported more than
that number switching from the Dem
ocratic to the Republican side.
In Pennsylvania and Ohio the Re-
publican victories were notable and
these states swung back into the
column to which they belong by ira
dition. The Pennsylvania upset was
not unexpected but away beyond the
fondest hopes of the Republicans and

HOPKINS AGAIN
IS Under FIRE.
Wheeler Sees Real Threat
Il to Democracy in Re-
" lief '"PoIitics"

WASHINGTON, June IA. CUP
Senator Burton X. Wheeler, d.,
Mont, last night renewed his
charges of political &C ivl ty
against Works Progress Admins,
traitor Harry l.. Hopkins and
warned that playing politics
with human misery" constitutes a
"real threat" to democracy.
Speaking over the Washington
Star Forum Of the National
Broadcasting company, he said
that the practice had been con
doned by "many in high public
service" and theoretically, at
least, by the senate when it re-
fused to adopt amendments to the
recovery-relief bill design TO
prohibit political activity by WPA
workers and officials.
Earlier. Senator Robert j. Bulk
ley, D., Ohio, in another radio,
speech defended Hopkins and SAID
that in an organization as large
as WPA "there will abe Il. few MI
nor officials out at the end of the
line who will misuse their posi-
tons for political purposes
Referring to Hopkins interven-
ton in the Iowa primaries to sup
port the unsuccessful attempt OF
Representative Otha D. Wearln to
unseat Senator Guy NJ. Gillette,
supreme court enlargement foe,
Wheeler said:
"Mr. Hopkins has established
his administrative abilities. lie
had with that great ability, SYM
pathy and understanding, all Of
which he has applied to his most
difficult task. He should, as re-
suit of the deserved rebuke re-
ceived from the people Of Iowa,
confine his activities to the impair
tial administration of a huge re-
lief fund entrusted to him. :.
He should not add to the payrolls
lust before election and then re,
duce the rolls Immediately ALTERS
He warned that if the power
delegated to WPA is used to de
stroy senators and congressman
who have voted funds for the I'M
employed" the members OF con-
eress have Fashioned a Franken-
stein which has turned from Its
appointed job of mercy and re-
Mobilization to battle and destroy
its creators"
Bulkley, a loyal New Dealer,
said it could be taken for grant
ed that the president and the high
officers of his administration
would like to help elect to both
houses candidates who are in har-
mony with his program"
"Yet the dignity of the presl-
Dental office is inconsistent with
too much political activity in pri-
mary campaigns" he said, and
the infinite variety of these pri-
mary contests will afford a very
severe test of the presidents po-
litical skill" "'.
At the same time Bulkley said
that the so-called Tydings resolu-
ton calling for creation of a
three-man senatorial committee to
investigate charges of political
relief probably will be approved

JURIST STATES
in HIS CHARGE
Judge Johnson of South
Carolina, Reveals Views
From the Bench

WATERFORD, S. c., June
IA. (SpeciaD IF | had been in
the national Democratic conven-
ton in Philadelphia in 1886. |
would have walked out with some
Others" said Judge ]. Henry John
son. of Allendale, yesterday morn
ing during his charge to the grand
jury at the opening Of the court
of general sessions for Colleton
county.
He referred to the fact that a
negro had been asked to lead in
prayer. He said that so far as he
could learn the Republican con
vention was never opened with
prayer by a negro.
Two things Judge Johnson said
he believed in and about which
he is a crank-state's rights and
white supremacy. He said he fear
ed the national Democratic party
is trying to destroy these in the
South.
He said the wage and hour bill
in a few years will lead the South
into bondage.
The anti-lynching bill is not
an anti-lynching bill, he asserted,
but an anti-southern bill designed
to catch the vote of the negro up
North. He contended that there
is ample room in the country for
both races. each operating IN his
proper sphere.
He charged that the southern
Democrat had saved the party at
ter the war, but that now there IS
danger that the Democratic party
of the North will destroy it. He
said that in these plain remarks
he was trying to throw out some
red flags to warn the people. The
people of the South have been
bought with a price, unfortunate
ly too small, he charged. This Is
the first time the national govern
ment has done anything for the
South, but even now the ditferen-
tial in favor of the North is out
of all reason.
After making these statements,
Judge Johnson said that he real
lied it might prove costly to him
to be making them, and that he
had no apologies to make for hav-
ing spoken thus.
"If it be treason, make the most
of it." he concluded.
